For the famous Mr. Su, Wei Donglin had a good impression of him before. It is rumored that he is resourceful, a man who cannot stand upright, has gained a foothold on the battlefield with his own wisdom, made great military exploits, and become famous in the state of Jin. Said to be a legend.

But now Wei Donglin looks at Su Jin more and more. Why is Su Jin and Saburo so close?Saburo has never looked at himself with this kind of eyes. Wei Donglin felt sour in his heart. He suddenly forgot that he liked to bully the cowardly Saburo since he was a child. In the end, he was angry that his parents were poor and favored Saburo, who was not his own son. He sent someone away. Under such circumstances, Wei Donglin left home to join the army in a rage, and only came back now that he had achieved fame. Even Saburo himself might not recognize him.

Feeling depressed, Wei Donglin simply ignored Su Jin, tried his best to smile, and said in the most gentle voice in his life: "Sanlang, elder brother wants to talk to you alone."

Wei Donglin emphasized the sound of the word "alone", hoping that Su Jin would retreat in spite of difficulties. Su Jin is indeed a sensible person. If it was normal, Wei Donglin would definitely not stay here to hinder the reunion of relatives and brothers, but Wei Su's face Su Jin saw the nervousness on the table, but Su Jin didn't want to leave. Did he leave Wei Su to face Wei Donglin alone?

No matter how aggrieved Wei Donglin was, he couldn't help it. Although Wei Su didn't say anything, his attitude was that he wanted Su Jin to stay here.

Wei Su's idea is very simple. Compared with Wei Donglin, the big brother, he is obviously more familiar with Su Jin. Even if Wei Donglin finds out that he is not the original Saburo, he should not be in any danger with Su Jin around.

Wei Su has an inexplicable sense of trust in Su Jin.

Wei Donglin could only ignore Su Jin's existence, and said dryly, "Sanlang, have parents gone?"

Wei Su froze for a moment, looked at Wei Donglin's flushed eyes, and finally nodded.

Wei Donglin had already heard about this incident from the villagers of Weijia Village, but after hearing Wei Su's confirmation, he still felt breathless in his heart. He finally regretted it. He shouldn't have been stubborn all these years for not coming back.

"Then... what about Erlang?" Wei Donglin's mood calmed down slightly, and he spoke again, "I heard from people in the village that his body was gone after he went hunting in the back mountain?"

Speaking of this, Wei Donglin's voice trembled a little, no bones left is undoubtedly the most tragic ending.

Wei Su frowned, and finally expressed his opinion on Wei Erlang's life and death: "After the second brother entered the mountain, there was only one bloody coat left. I didn't believe that the second brother died like this, so I secretly went to the back mountain to find , I didn’t expect this to be discovered by me to be unusual.”

This is not long after crossing, Wei Su wanted to go to the mountains to find Wei Erlang's bones, but found traces of someone slipping on the cliff about 1000 meters away from where Erlang's bloody clothes were found. down.

He searched down along the traces, and found that there was a road leading to the outside of the village at the bottom of the cliff, and there was no trace of Wei Erlang underneath, only traces of a carriage and a golden hairpin. Wei Su guessed that Wei Erlang might He was rescued, but unfortunately the only clue was the golden hairpin, and he had no way of finding it.

After hearing Wei Su's narration, Wei Donglin became excited. This was the best news he knew so far. It just so happened that Wei Su kept the golden hairpin in the rare goods center, and the group returned quietly while everyone was immersed in the joy of being saved. Odd goods house.

Wei Donglin looked up and down with the golden hairpin, but like Wei Su, he couldn't see why, but Su Jin pointed to a special word on the golden hairpin and said, "This is the symbol of Green Willow House. According to my As far as we know, Green Willow House is only sold in the capital, so the person who saved Wei Erlang must be in the capital too."

Wei Donglin's expression relaxed. It's better to have news than to search for people all over the sky. He put the hairpin in his sleeve and prepared to go back to the capital to find Erlang. Now he began to think about Wei Su's matter.

Speaking of it, his feelings for Wei Su were complicated. When the Wei family parents brought Wei Su to the Wei family, Wei Donglin was only eight years old, and the Wei family Erlang was only six years old. At that time, Wei Su was still a baby, very white and tender. Cute, Wei Donglin naturally likes this kid, even though he is not his own brother.

The subsequent series of developments were beyond his expectation, but now that he has grown up, the immature and inexplicable emotions he had when he was a child have long since disappeared, and all that remains is his sincere love for his unrelated younger brother.

Suppressing all kinds of emotions in his heart, Wei Donglin sincerely suggested to Wei Su: "Sanlang might as well go to the capital with me. After all, besides Erlang, there are only two of us in the Wei family."

Wei Su hesitated for a moment, thinking that Su Jin, who was definitely going back to the capital, finally agreed to Wei Donglin's suggestion.

Wei Donglin was overjoyed, and even Su Jin's mood improved. If Wei Su went to the capital, the two of them would spend a lot more time together in the future.

Wei Su consulted the opinions of the three members of the Wang family. Both Wang Hu and his wife expressed that they were used to staying in the village and did not want to leave the village at all. On the contrary, Wang Dashu was full of yearning for the capital. Go with Wei Su.

Leaving the town to go to the capital is not an easy matter after all, Wei Su wants to leave the Wei family to the Wangs and his wife, and leave the wounded soldiers who are unwilling to leave to stay at the Wei family and Qihuoju.

Wei Su has been so busy for a month, Wei Donglin received an order from above to go back to report on his duties immediately, so he had to go ahead regrettably, leaving some elite soldiers to protect the safety of Wei Su and Su Jin.

At the same time, the road construction work did not stop. Chu Zigui and Meng Zhang, who were also going to the capital, stayed temporarily to deal with the cement work.They want to contact their old friends and find someone they trust to take over the production of cement. Wang Dashu is by their side to help them.So after they finished their work, Wei Su and Su Jin had already set off with the troops left by Wei Donglin.

On the vast river, the mist is vast, and only one boat is driving on the river. The water is green, the mountains are green, and the blue waves are rippling. However, what is going on on the boat does not match the surrounding scenery.

Wei Su, Su Jin, Wei Shen, and Ah Da were sitting around the bow of the boat. In the middle was an iron shelf that Wei Su specially asked a blacksmith to make. This is a simple barbecue utensil. It is exuding bursts of fragrance.

Ah Da swallowed a mouthful of the fish, and exclaimed: "Sanlang is such a good idea, he actually came up with a way to grill fish on the boat."

Wei Su didn't make a sound, and handed the grilled fish to Su Jin who was beside him, but Su Jin smiled with a rather proud expression.

After taking a bite of Wei Su's grilled fish, Su Jin asked casually, "I wonder what Sanlang's plan is when he goes to the capital?"

Wei Su didn't stop what he was doing, and replied casually: "After arriving in the capital, I plan to continue to develop Qihuoju and promote cement and bicycles."

Su Jin caressed the wheelchair, her gaze was deep: "The capital city is different from Fengshou Town. Your bicycle and cement are too peculiar, and they will definitely be targeted by powerful and interested people. If you want to open Qihuoju safely, you must first Find a backer that no one else can provoke."

"Backer?" Wei Su frowned, "I'm new to the capital, and I'm not familiar with the place, so how can I have a backer?"

Su Jin subconsciously sat up straight, smiled, and raised her chin slightly towards Wei Su.

Wei Su suddenly realized: "How did I forget..."

The smile on Su Jin's face was even bigger, and she leaned forward to Wei Su, and just about to say something, Wei Su continued: "My elder brother is a great general, who would dare to provoke him with him as a backer?"

The smile on Su Jin's face froze, she sat back silently, and said in an emotionless voice: "Although Wei Donglin is a great general, his foundation is still shallow, and most people would be afraid of him, but there are many relatives of the emperor in the capital. Can't handle it at all."

"Then what should we do?" Wei Su hesitated for a moment, considering whether to use Wei Donglin's hands to hand over the cement recipe and the bicycle manufacturing method to the emperor. With the support of the emperor at that time, no one would not open their eyes to offend him. , but in the end it was hard to say whether this rare goods house belonged to the emperor or him.

Ah Da has always been able to observe words and expressions, he has already seen his young master's thoughts, swallowed the fish in his mouth, and said with a smile: "Sanlang is really worrying too much. In the capital, who else is more secure than young master as a backer?"

Su Jin straightened her back again.

Wei Su raised his eyebrows, with some doubts in his tone: "...Second brother?" Through the previous events, Wei Su already knew that Su Jin's identity was not simple, but Su Jin didn't take the initiative to say so, so he didn't ask.

Su Jin smiled without saying a word.

Ah Da dutifully explained: "As the Holy Majesty's favored cousin, there is no one in the capital who would not open their eyes to offend the young master."

Wei Su looked shocked. He had expected that Su Jin's status was not simple, but he didn't expect such a distinguished person.

Su Jin's father and the Supreme Emperor are blood brothers. He was conferred the title of King Kang Jun when he was just born, and he was favored by the current emperor. This time he came to Weisu, a remote town, as an inspector to investigate court officials.

Surprise followed by joy, no one reassured him more than Su Jin.

Just when Wei Su was about to say something, the whole boat shook suddenly, and the grill surrounded by the four of Wei Su almost fell down.

"What's going on?" Ah Da got up quickly, Wei Su stabilized Su Jin's wheelchair, and Wei Shen stood cautiously behind Wei Su.

"My lord, it's a water bandit." The guards who had been quietly hiding on the boat rushed out with swords in their hands. The leading guard looked serious. Their ships were temporarily rented merchant ships, but those water bandits' boats looked very different. , The hull of the ship is wrapped with special metal, and sharp weapons such as bed crossbows are even placed on it.

"Water bandits?" Su Jin frowned. Before heading to the capital, he had already sent people to investigate the situation here, and he had never heard of any water bandits here. Where did these people come from?

The atmosphere was dignified. Everyone on Wei Su's boat looked at the water bandit boat on the opposite side vigilantly. A man came out of the cabin. .

He scanned the situation on the boat, and his eyes fell on Su Jin. The corners of his mouth slightly raised an arc, with a half-smile: "Lord Su, long time no see."

Su Jin's expression was cold and indifferent: "Yu Jingzun, it turned out to be you." Turning the wheelchair to the edge of the boat, "I don't know how Master Yu will feel when he sees you become a water bandit in the spirit of the sky."

Wei Su noticed that the man's expression changed slightly when he heard Mr. Yu's words, and then recovered, but the coldness on his face could no longer be concealed: "It's useless to talk more, please come with me, Mr. Su." Bar."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the water bandit's boat ramming towards the boat where Wei Su and the others were on again.

The originally not very strong merchant ship was crumbling under this fierce attack.

Su Jin clenched her hands tightly, eyes frosted: "I'll go with you."

Yu Jingchen smiled lightly: "I appreciate Mr. Su's character of knowing the current affairs. Of course, for my safety, these loyal subordinates around you can't leave."
