Chapter 448 Making a fuss out of a molehill
With his ability, he could not defeat this group of people at all. Moreover, the other party was a prince, powerful and influential, far beyond the reach of a nameless and insignificant person like him.
Therefore, even if it means losing one's dignity, one must at least protect Song Huaizhi and not let her fall into the fire pit.
"Of course, this king is the most trustworthy."
"Okay! I'll kowtow!"
Su Shengming agreed with gritted teeth.
Fu Mingli took two steps back and looked at him meaningfully before he slowly got up, knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times with difficulty.
Then, he laughed loudly without any hesitation, and even the guards next to him laughed along.
"You look like a dog, hahahaha..."
Su Shengming knew that he had lost all face today, but how much is face worth compared to human life?
A real man can bend and stretch, and he can risk everything to save others.
Even if Song Huaizhi was just an ordinary stranger, he would save her without hesitation.
This is the kindness that is engraved in the bones of the Lu family. Even if he is useless and lazy on weekdays, he will immediately lend a helping hand when he sees others in distress.
Not to mention that he had a good impression of Song Huaizhi.
"Fifth Prince, can you release the person now?" Su Shengming stood up and looked at the other party with an innocent face.
Fu Mingli laughed: "You don't really think that I will let him go just because of you three heads, hahahaha..."
Seeing that he turned his face and refused to recognize him, Su Shengming was furious: "You! How can you go back on your word?"
"How did I break my promise? I just said I would consider it, but I didn't say I would definitely release him. You are stupid, who can you blame?"
"You are going too far! Let Huaizhi go!"
Su Shengming could no longer bear it and rushed towards him but was held down by two guards. He could only stare at him with hatred in his eyes.
Fu Mingli raised his eyebrows: "Are you interested in that little bitch? It seems that you have the same taste as I do. Don't worry, since you kowtowed sincerely three times just now, I will return the little bitch to you after I have played with her to pieces, hahahaha..."
After saying this, he turned around and went back to the palace, and the others followed him.
Looking at the closed door, Su Shengming knelt on the ground helplessly, pounding the ground and wailing in pain.
"I must save Huaizhi! Oh, Yinyin must have a way!"
He didn't dare to delay, and regardless of the injuries on his body, he quickly stood up and ran towards the Lu family.
……
Lu family.
Everything was ready and everyone started making dumplings, but the two people who went out to buy things had not returned yet.
Su Lanyin was a little worried: "It's been an hour, it's time for him to come back, right?"
Lu Wanjun smiled and said, "Could it be that these two kids went somewhere to have some romance?"
Su Shengyan frowned: "Old Third is really such a fool, he has no sense of propriety at all."
Su Shengyun smiled and said, "A Ming is always like this. He can't walk when he sees a pretty girl. Now that we are finally able to be alone, shouldn't we stay a little longer to cultivate our relationship?"
Lu Wanjun looked helpless: "If he had shared this skill with you two, I would have had a daughter-in-law long ago!"
The two brothers didn't dare to open their mouths for fear that the more they talked, the more they would be dragged down to making dumplings.
Su Lanyin was a little uneasy. She stood up and walked to the gate of the yard and asked A'mo: "Is he back?"
Ah Mo replied: "I just went to the door to ask, no."
"That shouldn't be the case. Are you in some trouble? Why don't you go and take a look?"
"Okay, slave, go right away."
As soon as A'mo finished speaking and was about to leave, he saw the servant at the door running towards him in a hurry.
"No, it's bad! Third Young Master, Third Young Master..."
Su Lanyin rushed over, grabbed the servant's arm and asked, "What's going on? Where's my third brother?"
The servant looked unhappy and quickly replied, "The Third Young Master was covered in wounds and fainted at the door!"
"what!"
Su Lanyin immediately ran towards the door and saw Su Shengming lying unconscious on the steps, with footprints all over his body and his face swollen from being hit.
"How could this happen? Hurry and carry the person in!"
"Yes!"
Several people hurriedly carried Su Shengming back to the room. Su Lanyin didn't care about avoiding suspicion and directly took off his coat and helped him check his injuries.
Fortunately, they were all external injuries and there were no broken bones. There was just a little swelling on the face and I need to rest for about half a month for the swelling to go down.
She took out a small medicine bottle, placed it under Su Shengming's nose and shook it. After a while, he slowly opened his eyes.
"Uh... Huaizhi..."
Su Lanyin was full of doubts and asked hurriedly: "Third brother, tell me, what happened? Where is Sister Huaizhi?"
"Huaizhi...she was captured by that beast Fu Mingli!"
"What? How could this happen?"
"It's all my fault. I had to leave her alone in the car. If I had taken her with me, nothing would have gone so wrong..."
Su Shengming slapped his face in regret and felt extremely painful.
"Don't worry, this is not your fault. Even if you were here, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to protect Sister Huaizhi."
"Yinyin, Third Brother is useless. I can only rely on you when I encounter trouble, but you must rescue the people as soon as possible!"
"Don't worry, I'll go to the Fifth Prince's Mansion to ask Fu Mingli for the person now!"
After saying that, Su Lanyin immediately stood up and walked out the door, shouting, "Amo, bring a few people with me immediately."
"Yes!"
When A'mo arrived, a dozen guards came over. Su Lanyin was about to leave, but she felt something was wrong.
The people have never fought against officials, let alone against the royal family.
She was just a small county lady, and she brought so many people to Fu Mingli's palace to ask for someone. Wouldn't that give people an excuse to talk about her?
By then, I'm afraid that the crime of committing the following offense will be enough to make her suffer, and if things go wrong, the entire Lu family will be implicated.
Thinking of this, she turned to A'mo and said, "Go report to the police and say that someone has raped a woman. Then spend money to find a few people to testify."
"I'm afraid this Jingzhao Yin doesn't dare to offend Fu Mingli, right?"
"Whether he dares or not, as long as someone reports it to the police, the person concerned must be present. If he does not come, he will be guilty and will be drowned in the spit of the people of the capital. If the emperor hears about it, I am afraid his good days will be over."
"Then why not report it directly to the emperor?" A'mo wondered.
"The Emperor is very busy. If I complain to him about an ordinary woman, he will think I am making a big fuss. I might even get scolded. If he hears the news himself, he will punish Fu Mingli."
"For now, we should report to the authorities and ask them to arrest Fu Mingli to prevent him from harming Huai Zhi and causing irreparable consequences. As for whether we can rescue her, I'm afraid we need more powerful people to help us."
Ah Mo frowned: "Girl, do you want to ask King Xiaoyao for help?"
