Li Qinzai may have this noble quality of being brave and courageous, but it depends on the person and his mood.
For example, Cui Jie and Li Qinzai may not be happy.
When a woman who is full of contempt for him is in danger, should he save her? This is a moral question.
As we all know, the fifth grandson of the British Duke is not lacking in talent or handsomeness, but he is lacking in morality. The bad records in the past can prove it.
Besides, this is the city of Chang'an, at the feet of the Emperor, the most benign place, and in broad daylight, no matter the public order or the people's customs, there will be no such bad things as openly kidnapping people on the streets.
As long as this woman has a little bit of intelligence, no matter how ferocious the gangster is, she won't continue to chase any Wuhou who patrols the street.
The carriage left immediately, and Li Qinzai really had no intention of saving Cui Jie.
However, things went wrong and Li Qinzai was not interested in saving her, but Cui Jie took the initiative and ran towards the carriage.
It's a shameless thing for a hero to save a beauty, but it's still a shameless thing for a beauty to take the initiative to ask for help. This kind of evil is like a senior who has done it many times in the wilderness and never corrected it.
This senior is called Tang Seng.
When Cui Jie and Cong Shuang saw the carriage walking in the middle of the road, their eyes lit up and they ran towards the carriage quickly.
It wasn't that the carriage Li Qinzai was riding in was anything special, it was simply that Cui Jie recognized Liu Asi, the military commander guarding the carriage.
Liu Asi is nearby, so the person in the carriage must be Li Qinzai.
A pampered young lady from an aristocratic family with a frail body, but her steps were extremely vigorous when she was escaping. She was as fast as flying.
Li Qinzai watched Cui Jie approaching and couldn't help but sigh.
A hero saves a beauty, but it won't work if he doesn't save her.
Taking three steps at a time, Cui Jie and Cong Shuang quickly scurried into the carriage like two black mice.
After entering the carriage and closing the curtain tightly, the two women were breathing heavily. Cui Jie's pretty face was frightened, but she did not forget to politely thank Li Qinzai.
"Thank you Brother Li Shi for the rescue. Cui Jie will remember it in my heart."
Li Qinzai grinned: "You're welcome, I didn't plan to save you, you came up here on your own."
Cui Jie sighed: "Then I have to thank Brother Li Shi for giving me a place to stay temporarily."
Li Qinzai raised his chin and said, "Who are you chasing? You are so brave that you dare to kidnap people openly in Chang'an City."
Cui Jie smiled bitterly and said: "It's a general from the Cui family in Qingzhou, someone sent by my father. He just recognized me in the city and wants to take me back."
"Well done, what are you doing in Chang'an City?"
Cui Jie pursed her lips, her pretty face turned slightly red, and she lowered her head in silence.
The main purpose of her coming to Chang'an City was to find out for herself who Li Qinzai was.
Of course, I was ashamed to tell Li Qinzai about this matter. How could my daughter go out to inquire about the conduct of her future husband in person? It was too shameful.
"I, I... did some embroidery work and want to sell it in Chang'an City. The price in the capital may be higher." Cui Jie stammered.
Not used to lying, Cui Jie's pretty face turned even redder as she spoke.
Li Qinzai didn't notice her lying, he didn't even look at her.
"So, the people chasing you outside are from the Cui family in Qingzhou?"
"yes."
Li Qinzai opened the car curtain: "Ah Si."
"exist."
"Go get a few people, kidnap those chasing people into a dark alley, and beat them up."
Cui Jie was shocked: "Brother Li Shi, this..."
Outside the carriage, Liu Asi hesitated and whispered: "Fifth Young Master, they are the generals of your father-in-law's family..."
Give them a taste of the pain of their flesh and blood, and reciprocate with courtesy."
"Go and beat them up, just say hello to their faces."
Liu Asi no longer hesitated, cupped his fists and said, "Yes."
After saying that, he waved his hand and Liu Asi led several members of the Li family to disperse quietly in the crowd and outflanked several of the Cui family's informants.
Seeing Buqu blocking up the Cui family members without leaving a trace in the crowd, and then dragging them into the dark alley on the street, Li Qinzai put down the car curtain and stopped caring.
In the swaying carriage, Li Qinzai glanced at Cui Jie and said calmly: "I saved your life again."
Cui Jie lowered her head and said, "Thank you so much, Brother Li Shi, for saving me."
After thanking him, Cui Jie was stunned again.
You beat up someone in my family, and I want to thank you. This... something seems wrong.
"Without experience and the ability to protect yourself, it's best not to wander around. You won't be so lucky next time."
Cui Jie smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, thanks to Brother Li Shi this time."
Li Qinzai was silent for a moment and suddenly asked curiously: "If you hadn't met me just now, how would you have planned to protect yourself?"
Cui Jie said softly: "I originally planned to look for Marquis Wu on the streets, but I ran all the way without meeting him, and then I saw your carriage."
Li Qinzai nodded happily. Fortunately, he was not too stupid. His IQ jumped repeatedly above and below the passing line, so he was considered a normal person.
"Next time if you don't meet Wu Hou patrolling the streets, shout for help. There will always be brave men on the road, and then destroy the goods in the shops on the street. If the shops hear the sound and come out, they will not let you and the people chasing you go.
Although we have to lose money, at least we can get out of trouble, understand?"
Cui Jie opened her eyes wide with surprise on her face: "Can it still be like this?"
Li Qinzai sighed and vaguely saw the number flashing above Cui Jie's head, "IQ -10".
Okay, it jumped back below the passing line.
If this woman marries her, the son she will give birth to will probably be bullied to death by Qiao'er.
Seeing Li Qinzai's speechless expression, Cui Jie smiled sheepishly and said, "I... rarely went out before. I only studied and embroidered in the boudoir. I don't understand many things. Brother Li Shi, please be considerate."
Li Qinzai was embarrassed.
She's considerate, of course she's considerate, she's dignified and polite yet cute and confused, that's probably her personality, it's understandable.
Cui Jie seemed to be quite interested in chatting today after being rescued by Li Qinzai. Li Qinzai always felt that this woman's attitude was a little different. Could it be that she was in a good mood today and no longer despised him?
"We just ran for a long time without encountering Wu Hou, who was patrolling the streets. If Brother Li Shi hadn't rescued me, I might have been caught by them today. If I were caught in front of my father, my father would beat me to death..." Cui
Jie said with lingering fear.
"Brother Li Shi doesn't know that Cong Shuang and I were in despair just now. In addition to praying to heaven, we can only silently recite Baopuzi's nine-character mantra to protect ourselves and avoid difficulties..."
"Does Brother Li Shi know the Nine-Character Mantra?"
Li Qinzai blurted out without thinking: "Of course I know, I am too familiar with it, 'big or small, if you feel comfortable or not, call me daddy'."
There was a sudden silence inside the carriage.
Cui Jie and Cong Shuang stared at him blankly with their innocent and ignorant eyes open.
After a long while, Cui Jie said with a smile: "Well, the nine-character mantra Li Shixiong said... seems to be different from what I know. What does the nine-character mantra Li Shixiong said mean? Can you clarify Cui Jie's confusion?"
After Li Qinzai said this, he regretted it. Fortunately, Cui Jie was a young girl who was ignorant of human affairs and could not understand the saying "tiger and wolf".
"Ah, maybe I read the wrong book. What is the nine-character mantra you said?" Li Qinzai said without changing his expression.
"It is a Taoist classic compiled by a Taoist named Ge Hong in the Jin Dynasty. The nine-character mantra recorded in it can protect oneself and avoid difficulties, and turn danger into safety. The nine-character mantra says, 'Those who are facing a battle, all march forward in formation.'
Every nine words should always be prayed secretly, and everything should be explained."
Li Qinzai suddenly realized that he knew this too, he was very familiar with it.
It is said that the little devil later plagiarized the Nine-Character Mantra, but in the end he plagiarized it wrongly and read it as "All those who face the battle are arrayed in front."
You can even get the spell wrong, and I don’t know how many little devils have had bad luck when reciting the spell in times of crisis...
Beasts are beasts. They can't understand human language and can't copy their homework. They deserve to be planted with mushrooms.
"Why did Brother Li Shi come to Chang'an today?" Cui Jie asked curiously.
Li Qinzai sighed and said: "Because my home is in Chang'an... Miss Cui, you can remain silent if there is no topic. I am not embarrassed at all. The situation is quite good. Don't ask nonsense questions to ruin the atmosphere."
Cui Jie, who was slapped against the south wall, was not angry at all. She just turned her face and pouted, and quickly returned to her original state.
Today Cui Jie is particularly pleased with Li Qinzai.
Because after arriving in Chang'an City, Cui Jie found out a lot about Li Qinzai.
When the news was blocked, Cui Jiecai didn't know much about Li Qinzai, so she had great contempt for him. As a result, when she came to Chang'an today, she first found her brother Cui Sheng.
Seeing that his sister came to Chang'an specifically to inquire, Cui Sheng couldn't hide it, so he told her everything about Li Qinzai's behavior in the past few months.
Cui Jie was shocked after hearing this.
She didn't expect that Li Qinzai could be so good, completely different from the rumored playboy with bad deeds.
Liu Asi, who was around Li Qinzai at the time, once told her that she might have misjudged the fifth young master of the Li family.
After arriving in Chang'an City today, Cui Jie finally understood why Bu Qu said this.
