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

Chapter 709 Cai Fu: Trouble! All trouble! [3rd update]

Despite being dazed and confused from the fall, and even feeling like he had broken his ribs, Niu Bangxi still seized the opportunity.

Drawing his sword, Niu Bangxi charged toward the twenty-odd frail women who huddled together like quails!

"what--"

Li Shishi and Zhao Jinluo were so frightened that they huddled together, trembling like quails.

In their eyes, Niu Bangxi was like a vengeful ghost, about to drag them into hell...

"Wa hahaha--"

Niu Bangxi grinned maliciously as he pounced on them; if he could grab one of them, he would have a hostage.

Although he didn't know why Cai Fu was there, Niu Bangxi guessed it was for Li Shishi.

After all, Li Shishi was the most famous courtesan in the Song Dynasty. Which man wouldn't want to kiss her?
However, just as he was about to reach those twenty-odd frail women, he was captured!
Cai Fu, who jumped down right after him, stepped forward and grabbed him by the back of the neck!
Niu Bangxi's expression changed drastically. Without thinking, he reversed his waist knife and stabbed it backwards under his armpit!

"what--"

Li Shishi, Zhao Jinluo, and the others exclaimed in surprise again.

In their view, Niu Bangxi's knife strike was unexpected and at a strange angle, and Cai Fu was bound to be stabbed!
However, to their surprise, Cai Fu did not play by the rules. The moment he grabbed Niu Bangxi by the back of the neck, he twisted it with a "crack"!
Niu Bangxi lost his strength halfway through his stab...

Cai Fu casually tossed Niu Bangxi onto the ground like he was throwing away trash.

Niu Bangxi lay limply on the ground, his head twisted backward, the back of his head pressed against his spine!
"hiss--"

Li Shishi and Zhao Jinluo couldn't help but gasp at the corpse's aura:
Dead, dead, dead?

What makes you think you can fight me?
Cai Fudu didn't even bother to glance at Niu Bangxi; having been through countless battles, he was now terrifyingly strong!
Even he himself doesn't know what kind of tiger he is now!

He could fight Yang Zhi to a standstill for fifty rounds, and he could fight Lin Chong to a standstill for fifty rounds...

Oh? A luminous pearl?
This was the first time Cai Fu had ever seen a luminous pearl in person; he never imagined it would be embedded in the tunnel's dome for lighting...

Emperor Huizong of Song really spared no expense when it came to winning over women!
Seeing Cai Fu studying the luminous pearl, Li Shishi timidly offered a curtsy:

"This humble servant greets Your Majesty..."

I'll have them pry all of them off later!
Cai Fu abandoned his research on the luminous pearl and looked at Li Shishi, whose face had turned pale:
"Why are you here?"

Li Shishi gave Cai Fu a brief explanation, and the princesses, upon learning that he was the Prince of Qi, immediately surrounded him.

"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, brother-in-law..."

"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, brother-in-law..."

A large group of princesses, of all ages and beauty, surrounded Cai Fu.

Cai Fu felt as if he were surrounded by flowers, and he looked all the sisters-in-law and their wives over to him.

As expected, they are all Zhao Fujin's biological sisters, and they all bear some resemblance to Zhao Fujin.

One of his sisters-in-law looked so much like Zhao Fujin, they were practically identical.

Cai Fu asked around and found out that she was indeed Zhao Fujin's biological sister, sharing the same parents.

The eldest sister-in-law, Zhao Yupan, was only twenty-three years old.

The youngest sister-in-law, Zhao Jingu, is only two years old.

These sisters-in-law all regarded Cai Fu as their pillar of support, like a flock of little birds chirping around him.

This pushed Li Shishi, who was the first to greet Cai Fu, out of the room.

However, Li Shishi is not an outsider either; her younger sister, Li Ping'er, is very favored by Cai Fu.

However, Li Shishi knew that Li Ping'er was at most a concubine, so she dared not call Cai Fu her brother-in-law.

Zhao Yupan and Zhao Jinnu assumed that Zhao Fujin was the legal wife, so it was only natural for them to be close to Cai Fu.

Now that they were all family, the princesses relaxed considerably, and Zhao Yupan couldn't help but ask Cai Fu about the situation outside:

"Brother-in-law, how is Father?"

Cai Fu remained silent. Although Emperor Huizong's death was nothing to Cai Fu, Emperor Huizong was, after all, his father-in-law.

He can't exactly laugh like a pig, can he?

However, Emperor Huizong was their father and their protector to these imperial princesses.

As the eldest sister, Zhao Yupan was the first to understand the meaning behind Cai Fu's silence, and she burst into tears.

Her tears made her sisters understand, and so all twenty princesses burst into tears.

One woman crying is already a headache, let alone twenty women crying together?

But Cai Fu couldn't tell them to shut up. Their father had died, couldn't they even be allowed to cry a little?

In stark contrast to the princesses, Li Shishi felt no emotional turmoil and even a sense of relief.

What was Emperor Huizong of Song to her?
Diners!

A diner who dines and dashes at every meal!
A diner who dines and dashes every meal and won't even let others sit at the table!
She would be hypocritical if she shed even a single tear for Emperor Huizong!

"Alright, alright, that's enough."

Cai Fu patiently waited for his sisters-in-law to cry for a while before speaking:

"Let's go upstairs and cry then."

The princesses were at a loss; all their power vanished with the death of Emperor Huizong.

So they listened to Cai Fu and lined up one by one to climb up.

Because they were delicate and weak, Cai Fu had to help them climb up each time.

My hands were sore from carrying it all out.

It was Li Shishi's turn. Cai Fuyi asked her to speak. As expected of the number one courtesan of the Song Dynasty, she was indeed a heavyweight contender.

Finally, three children remained: five-year-old Zhao Jinyin, four-year-old Zhao Saiyue, and two-year-old Zhao Jingu.

Cai Fu carried Zhao Jinyin on his back, Zhao Saiyue on his shoulder, and Zhao Jingu in his arms as he climbed the ladder.

……

At the well, Gao Chong was about to jump down when he saw Yang Zaixing climb back up.
"Why did you come up here, brother?"

Yang Zaixing blushed: "There are women all down there..."

"what?"

Gao Chong quickly pulled his leg back: "Father, can you handle things down there by yourself?"

"Don't worry, they're all family."

Yang Zaixing explained to Gao Chong, "They are all sisters of Princess Maode."

Gao Chong understood; they were indeed not outsiders. So, the question arose:
Why isn't Father coming up yet?

Hua Rong, having been there before, offered a forced explanation: "Perhaps the King is catching up with them..."

Yang Zaixing and Gao Chong were both young and martial arts fanatics, lacking life experience, so they didn't think much of it.

After waiting for a while, a beautiful young woman suddenly climbed out of the well.

Upon seeing that the beautiful young woman bore a striking resemblance to Zhao Fujin, Yang Zaixing and Gao Chong immediately bowed in respect.

But it didn't end there; one after another, more than a dozen young women climbed out of the well.

They were all beautiful, and except for one exceptionally beautiful woman, they all bore a resemblance to Zhao Fujin.

Finally, Cai Fu brought out three little girls and sighed deeply:
So what's the good thing about having more women?

trouble!

It's all trouble!
【Don’t worry, there’s more to come】
