Chapter 778: A Favor

Xizhou will dieBy then, people would be fighting over even the bark of trees on the roadside.Both staple goods and dry goods are easy to preserve and particularly durable after soaking. By then, dry g...Fang Jinshu's gaze sent a wave of tumultuous emotions through Fu Ming's heart. These words, he had never heard anyone say before.

After that, Fu Ming suddenly put away his carefree attitude and became much more silent.

Fang Jinxiu knew she was just venting her anger at Fu Ming. For the matter of A Yu being taken away, he may not have stopped it, but he didn't really intervene or do anything about it.

So, two days after the Cold War, Fu Ming handed him a cup of hot water, and Fang Jinshu reached out to take it.

This was the first time she had taken the initiative to respond to Fu Ming in days. Fu Ming's eyes lit up, and he walked over to her side and sat down carefully.

"Those words, I'll never say them again."

"I've been thinking a lot these past few days. Although there are still many things I don't understand, I will help you find Zongyu."

"If you want to force him back, I'll help you."

Fang Jinshu was a little surprised.

"Why help me Don't you also want the imperial army to defend the lands of Xizhou"

"If Aoyu joined the army, with his abilities, he would definitely be a great asset to the Daxia army."

This is not like Wang Po selling melons and praising them herself. She had seen it from the very beginning: Zong Yu's abilities were perfectly suited for galloping and fighting on vast battlefields. He was calm, incredibly resilient, and aside from his astonishing physical prowess,

His beastly acute intuition could give him a huge advantage on the battlefield, a talent that others might not be able to cultivate even after years of experience.

At the brink of life and death, where victory or defeat, survival or demise hangs in the balance, the crucial factor is often a split-second intuition.

Zongyu was that kind of person, which is why Gu Feng said he was born for the battlefield.

She was angry at the time because what Gu Feng said was true. She was afraid, and could only hide her fear with anger.

Unexpectedly, after all the twists and turns, A-Yu still ended up on the battlefield of the borderlands.

"If it's not your business, consider me a friend who would gladly die for you." Fu Ming patted his chest confidently.

Fan Jinshu shook her head. “No, the phrase ‘to stand by someone through thick and thin’ doesn't apply to you.”

She stared at Fu Ming and suddenly said very seriously, "I'm just an ordinary person, I can't afford to have the prince of the current dynasty fight for me."

Fu Ming's whole body stiffened in place, it took him a long time to react.

"You, what are you saying, you can't joke about this."

Fang Jinshi smiled. "I wasn't joking, Mr. Fu knows what he did."

"You don't need to explain anything. Between people, getting along always comes down to self-interest."

"I accept your help, so feel free to ask for anything. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, I don't know if there will be another chance."

Fu Ming only hesitated for a moment before understanding immediately.

Since Fang Jinshui has already guessed his identity, it doesn't matter how she got out. Dwelling on this is pointless. He knows she won't harm him; if she wanted to, she would have had countless opportunities before.

And isn't this a perfect opportunity to get her to agree to go to the capital with him to treat his mother

“I, I want you to come back to Beijing with me to cure my mother.”

"Would you like this too"

Once Fang Jinshu agreed, she would have to follow him on another long journey to the capital. Would she be willing to leave her family and not know when she would return

Fu Ming thought Fang Jinxiu would definitely hesitate for a while, after all, he had mentioned this matter many times before and was rejected many times.

He had no sooner finished speaking than he heard Fang Jinshu agree.

"Good."

"I promise you."

Fuming was stunned for a moment, thinking he had misheard.

"You, you really agreed"

"Well, what about your in-laws Aren't you going to do anything about them"

Fang Jinshi gave him a strange look. "What does this have to do with my in-laws"

Anyway, Zong Bai will also have to go to the capital for the imperial examination in two years. Their family originally planned for him to try his luck at the next autumn examination.

Besides, she also promised her mother-in-law that she would go to the capital to find her father-in-law. No matter if he was alive or dead, she would help her mother-in-law resolve this knot in her heart.

If he were to die, investigate the cause of death and bring his remains back home to rest. If he were alive, Fang Jinshi wouldn't think any further.

Anyway, their family is going to the capital sooner or later. Since he agreed to Fu Ming, it doesn't matter much. It won't delay anything. It's a good opportunity to see his mother concubine while they are there.s and funds through the batch of precious and rare medicinal herbs left by Fang Jinshi last time.Even if she didn't organize a trade guild, within half a month he was prepared to seize power and turn...
