Help! I just woke up and was stabbed by a big kid
Chapter 79: Standing out
Gu Yue broke out in a cold sweat.
Half of it was because of the pain, and half of it was because of being watched by so many people.
The people were just hoping that someone would come out to act as the good guy, so a group of people immediately started to express their concern, seemingly ignoring Gu Yue's fierce and scarred image.
He is so strong and looks like a tough guy. He is just the right person to deal with Lord Han!
"What's wrong, brother?"
"Are you okay, sir? I just saw you get hit by a carriage."
"Master Han is too anxious. Look how badly he hit the person and made him cry out in pain!"
There are also those who take advantage of the chaos to engage in moral blackmail.
Lord Han looked unhappy. It was obvious that he felt that this stranger was very tactless and did not give him face!
Actually looking for him!
Gu Yue remained silent. Gu Xu answered for him with a very innocent look on his face: "My dad was knocked to the ground just now and couldn't get up for a while. It seems he sprained his ankle."
Things had come to this point, so Gu Yue had no choice but to follow Gu Xu's lead.
"Sir Han, what's the matter that makes you so anxious? Look at my waist..." As he said this, Gu Yue covered his lower back and grimaced in pain.
He didn't even need to pretend, Gu Xu's move was so strong that his face turned pale with pain.
Lord Han looked at him sullenly for a long while. Just as the people were talking about it, Lord Han suddenly smiled and said, "Boy, you are very good."
He kicked the driver and said, "You dog slave! You are so careless when driving. Don't work in my house anymore!"
The driver knelt on the ground, trembling.
Gu Yue frowned. He was not used to this feudal social atmosphere.
"It's useless to scold him now, Lord Han. The injuries I suffered from falling and fighting are minor matters. But you can see that many stalls on this street have been destroyed. This is people's livelihood." Gu Yue spoke out to stop them and drew their attention back to the chaotic street.
It was indeed a mess, with scattered debris everywhere, crushed vegetables and cakes, flour scattered on the ground, broken bottles and cans... Someone was still cleaning up, stuffing the fallen food into a pocket, with a look of sorrow on his face.
"That's right. It's just after the Chinese New Year, and everyone is short of money. And now it's like this." The city guard also said, "What should we do?"
Lord Han stood with his hands behind his back and said nothing.
"Lord Han, when doing business, you must practice harmony to make money. You should avoid doing things that are against the will of heaven and earth, otherwise you will easily suffer retribution." Gu Yue said seriously.
Since Gu Xu wanted him to confront Lord Han, then let him do as he pleased. After all, cannon fodder is just a tool for the protagonist.
"Very good, boy, you are the first person who dares to say something bad about me." Lord Han looked at him and sneered.
Gu Yue kept smiling on his face, but he was crying in his heart. His pepper——
On the surface, there are several major spice merchants in the entire Yuning Prefecture, but in fact, 80% of them are purchased from Lord Han. The same is true for the friend of the Marquis whom Gu Yue is going to visit. I'm afraid he will make a wasted trip.
A small carriage came from the other end of the street, but it moved in a very orderly manner.
When they came close, several people who looked like stewards and servants came down and surrounded Master Han, looking him up and down, saying, "Oh my God, Master! How could this happen!"
"The carriage knocked over someone's stall. You go and count the goods and pay the money you owe." Lord Han said, covering his forehead.
"What? This...is this the normal compensation?" The manager was stunned for a moment. This was the first time this request had been made!
"What else! You have a pig brain!" Lord Han cursed.
"Got it, got it..." The manager nodded hurriedly and immediately went to work on the matter.
The people looked at Gu Yue with more kindness. Gu Xu stood behind Gu Yue, blending into the shadows in a low-key manner.
Gu Yue was particularly confused.
He forced himself to smile at Lord Han: "Lord Han, please find a doctor to take a look. You have lost so much blood."
"It's up to you to say that!" Lord Han's servant glared at him fiercely.
Lord Han looked at him again, said nothing, and got on the new carriage and left. The city guard nodded to Gu Yue in a friendly manner and took the driver away. He was to be sent to the county government to explain the cause of today's chaos.
The excitement shifted to the manager who was paying compensation, and the people gradually dispersed.
Gu Yue touched his mouth and found it sticky, so he opened the water bag and washed his face with the water. When he squatted down, his lower back ached.
Gu Xu was waiting for him to ask him the reason, but he didn't hear Gu Yue speak for a long time.
"...Dad?" He pulled the corner of Gu Yue's clothes.
This person was smarter than he had expected, and calm enough to quickly understand such an emergency and handle it perfectly.
Gu Xu even suspected that he was fully aware of his plan, which was why he could respond like this.
"What's wrong?" Gu Yue was clean and looked refreshed again.
"Don't you have anything to ask?" Gu Xu rarely took the initiative to talk.
Got it! Gu Yue was immediately pleased.
My silence is overwhelming you!
"What do you want to ask?" Gu Yue deliberately asked him back.
Wu Huo followed behind. He thought that these two people should symbolically ask him why he was here.
Unfortunately, they both thought that Wuhuo's appearance was normal.
Needless to say, Gu Xu should have been followed by secret guards, so it was normal for them to show up after seeing the two of them get into trouble.
As for Gu Yue, he was basically certain that this group of Wumen people were related to Gu Xu, so he didn't think there was anything strange about Wuhuo's appearance.
He even felt like shopping, so he continued walking over there: "I'm hungry, what should we eat? Ah Huo, you're here just in time, I'll treat you."
"...Dad doesn't ask why?" Gu Xu was a little anxious for a rare moment. He ran forward and wanted to hold Gu Yue's hand.
The childish behavior reappeared.
Gu Yue's heart softened, then hardened again: "Why? You are sixteen years old, right? How can you hold Dad's hand again?"
As he said this, he put his hands behind his back and stopped holding hands.
He also figured it out. Since Gu Xu got the secret guard, the next step is to support the crown prince to take the throne. After all, Wumen in the original story also returned to Gu Xu through the crown prince. Although the current plot has deviated, Wumen bypassed the crown prince to contact Gu Xu, but the plan to support the crown prince should continue.
The important pair of secret guards were right beside the prince. Gu Yue was just a cannon fodder, so why did he ask so many questions?
Can Gu Xu let him go to die? He is the hero, not the villain, so he is not so cold-hearted.
Gu Xu felt a little upset.
It was clearly not a particularly important matter, and it was even a bit annoying. He was already so old, why did he have to hold his hand all the time?
But I feel...very uncomfortable.
He looked down at his hands, wiped them on his body in a somewhat ungraceful manner, and then reached out to hold Gu Yue's hand.
Gu Yue was unaware of anything. He saw a stall on the side of the road and walked over, his hands behind his back naturally loosening.
So Gu Xu got nothing again.
