Do you have the strength to force me to join the Liangshan bandits?

Chapter 562 Lin Chong: I Can Also Be Loyal and Righteous! [4 Updates, Requesting Monthly Tickets]

"His Majesty cherishes talent as much as his own life..."

Cai Ya, who was pushed away, did not blame Cai Fu. Instead, she looked at his tall and mighty back with even more admiration.

She was worried that Zhao Fujin would be unhappy, so she subconsciously offered an explanation for Cai Fu.

However, to her surprise, Zhao Fujin's understanding and kindness reached an alarming level!

"You do not understand."

Born into an imperial family, Zhao Fujin was well aware of the ways of the emperor and could not possibly be ignorant of imperial tactics. Looking at Cai Fu, he uttered a heartfelt sigh:
"Not being seduced by beauty, that is the demeanor of a true king!"
"My father is far inferior to the prince consort in this respect..."

Good guy!
Cai Ya didn't know what Zhao Fujin was thinking. He clearly understood everything, yet he could be so infatuated with love, and even when he was infatuated with love, he could regain his composure in the blink of an eye. But she knew that Zhao Fujin had already fallen for him...

Zhao Fujin stared straight at Cai Fu, and asked Cai Ya with a cool but indifferent smile:

"Which one is the one my sister is interested in?"

Ah this...

Cai Ya's face flushed red. She had instinctively thrown herself into Cai Fu's arms and forgotten the lie she had told...

Cai Ya, after all, was the eldest daughter of the Grand Tutor's mansion. She touched her burning cheeks and pursed her lips:

"What the younger sister likes, the older sister likes."

"But don't worry, little sister, I'm not here to steal your man, I'm here to help you steal your man."

Zhao Fujin raised an eyebrow: "What do you mean by that?"

"My sister should know that King Qi has two other fiancées besides you."

"One is Princess Tianshou of the Liao Kingdom, and the other is Fang Jinzhi, the daughter of the rebel Fang La."

"Fang Jinzhi may not pose a threat to my sister, but Princess Tianshou did bring the entire Mozhou as part of her dowry!"

Cai Ya glanced at Zhao Fujin with dead fish eyes as she spoke:
"My younger sister might not be a match for Princess Tianshou in a one-on-one fight, but with my older sister by my side..."

"Humph."

Zhao Fujin frowned slightly, remaining noncommittal.

Cai Ya's gaze, however, fell on Cai Fu and Luan Yu.

She realized that Cai Fu valued Luan Yu highly, and that if she gave Luan Yu to Cai Fu, he would definitely be very happy...

Cai Fu, holding Luan Yu in his arms, asked, "Brother, how are you feeling?"

"Okay, much better..."

The medicine didn't work that quickly, but it had a powerful psychological effect on Luan Yu.

Luan Yu said emotionally, "Thank you so much, Your Majesty..."

"No need to thank me, what I admire most is a loyal and righteous person like you!"

Cai Fu asked Luan Yu again, "May I ask how the hero is addressed?"

"Villain..."

Luan Yu hesitated for a moment, but finally revealed her true identity:
"My name is Luan Tingyu..."

"People in the martial arts world call me 'Iron Rod'..."

"It's you?"

Cai Fu was taken aback and instinctively said, "You're not..."

"do you died?"

A little color returned to Luan Tingyu's pale face:

"Everyone in Liangshan thought I was dead..."

"I fought my way out of the chaos of war, surrendered to the capital, Tokyo, and lived in anonymity as a retainer in the Grand Tutor's mansion..."

"I see!"

Cai Fu was not surprised to hear this, as in the original story, Luan Tingyu's death was only mentioned by Song Jiang.

But who killed Luan Tingyu?
The person who killed Luan Tingyu must not be an unknown soldier. If he were a general, how could he not come to claim credit?
Even if they don't come to claim credit, isn't it worth mentioning it by Master Shi?
It's understandable that Luan Tingyu was able to fight his way out of the chaos, but I never expected to meet him here.

"Brother Luan, come with me!"

Cai Fu grasped Luan Tingyu's hand, interlaced his fingers, and clenched them into a fist:
"Don't waste your time in the Grand Tutor's mansion, come to our Qi Kingdom and make a name for yourself!"

Was it a waste of time? Luan Tingyu didn't think so. He looked at Cai Ya, who was walking behind Cai Fu, and subconsciously wanted to refuse:

It might have been a period of wasted time before, but ever since the young lady returned to the manor after her husband's death, it's no longer a period of wasted time!

He didn't care about making achievements or establishing a career, as long as he could stay by the young lady's side and protect her safety...

enough!
"Luan Yu!"

Cai Ya spoke up before Luan Tingyu could:
"From now on you shall follow the King!"
"Staying in the Grand Tutor's mansion will only bury your talent. You have excellent martial arts skills, you should follow the King and make contributions!"

Should I... follow the king and achieve great deeds?
Luan Tingyu's eyes welled up with tears.

If the young lady also said so, perhaps I really should follow the king and make a name for myself...

With a silent sigh, Luan Tingyu struggled to kneel before Cai Fu:
"I, Luan Tingyu, am willing to follow Your Majesty!"

"Ya'er, be good."

Cai Fu helped Luan Tingyu up, then turned back with a smile and raised an eyebrow at Cai Ya.

Cai Ya smiled gently.

She usually has lifeless, dead fish eyes, but when she looks at Cai Fu, her beautiful eyes sparkle!
Her smile is captivating!

Luan Tingyu was stunned; he had never seen Cai Ya smile like that before.

So beautiful!
snort!
They even said they came to help me!
Zhao Fujin's eyebrows furrowed and her phoenix eyes widened, increasingly feeling that Cai Ya was her most threatening opponent!

Learned!
After capturing the bandit king, Lin Chong realized that Cai Fu actually enjoyed this kind of thing!

Lin Chong certainly knew Luan Tingyu, but Luan Tingyu hadn't recognized him just now because he looked like a blood gourd.

He knew Luan Tingyu's abilities; Luan Tingyu was said to have the courage of ten thousand men, but in reality, he was just so-so.

Just look at Luan Tingyu's record. He fought two matches in total. In the first match against Ou Peng, he didn't even give up his horse and feigned defeat right away.

Ou Peng rushed over, but was knocked off his horse by Luan Tingyu's flying hammer.

In the second match against Qin Ming, they fought for twenty rounds without a clear winner. Then, Qin Ming feigned defeat and fled, and Qin Ming gave chase.

As a result, Luan Tingyu led Qin Ming to the ambush site, where Qin Ming was tripped by a tripwire, fell off his horse, and was captured alive.

With just these two achievements, how can you boast about them?
If you're going to praise Luan Tingyu, you should praise Hua Rong instead. Hua Rong fought Qin Ming for forty or fifty rounds without a clear winner.

Then he feigned defeat and fled, shooting off the red tassel on Qin Ming's helmet with an arrow, which frightened Qin Ming so much that he turned his horse and rode away.

Hua Rong's performance wasn't as impressive as Luan Tingyu's.

Of course, this doesn't mean that Luan Tingyu wasn't strong; it's just that in Lin Chong's eyes, Luan Tingyu was far inferior to himself.

Therefore, Lin Chong understood that Cai Fu valued Luan Tingyu's loyalty and righteousness, not his martial arts skills!

Luan Tingyu had just single-handedly blocked the carriage, covered in blood, fighting to the death without retreating!

Lin Chong saw this and gave it a thumbs up; how could Cai Fu not admire such a hero?
Lin Chong made a painful decision: I can also be loyal and righteous!
I can also fight to the death, covered in blood, and never retreat!

"Master Lin!"

Cai Fu stepped forward, grabbed Lin Chong's shoulders with both hands, and looked Lin Chong up and down, his face weathered and his eyes frosty:

"You have worked hard!"

"It's not hard work!"

Lin Chong quickly untied the sheepskin bag from his horse and laid the ten severed heads at Cai Fu's feet:
"Your Majesty, please look!"
"This one is He Heita, the young marshal of the Jin Kingdom, and this one is..."

"This one is Walibo, the fifth marshal of the Jin Kingdom, and this one is Zeli, the fifth prince of the Jin Kingdom!"
"Your Majesty, I have succeeded!"

"Good! Good! Good!"

Cai Fu was very satisfied with Lin Chong's answer and patted Lin Chong's shoulder twice.

"Well done! I knew I hadn't misjudged you!"

It's now!

Lin Chong decisively bowed and prostrated himself in worship:

"I, Lin Chong, am willing to go through fire and water for Your Majesty, even unto death!"

[Don't rush, there's more to come. First, I'd like to ask for some monthly tickets and recommendation votes, or 2~]
