My lady, I'm going to rebel.

Chapter 162: You Can’t Leave the Royal City

Your own friends?

Temujin frowned, "What's going on?"

"Mu Zheng, the man you brought back, named Mu Zheng, beat Zhu'er." An old man roared.

Upon hearing this, Temujin's expression changed. He knew very well what kind of person Mu Zheng was. Under normal circumstances, he would not take the initiative to attack unless someone touched him.

Thinking of this, Temujin immediately thought of green grass.

Upon asking, it turned out to be true.

Seeing that it was really his own people who took action, the old man beside Temujin leaned over to his ear and said, "No matter what you think, you must remember that if you want to inherit the power of the family, the support of Temuzhu's family is indispensable."

Temujin's face changed: "Grandpa, do you want me to give up on them? But they are my friends and they saved my life."

The old man's eyes were slightly hazy: "Things are still unclear now, but I hope you remember that when the critical moment comes, you must know how to make choices."

Temujin lowered his head helplessly. He understood what the old man meant. The so-called choice meant that if things really could not be saved, he had to give up Mu Zheng.

But is this still a human being?

Temujin didn't bother to say too much and left the table directly. He wanted to find Mu Zheng to ask him what was going on. At the same time, he also secretly told himself in his heart.

No matter what, Mu Zheng, he must be saved.

Back in the yard, Temujin immediately found Mu Zheng. After listening to his story, he let out a long sigh and said, "You guys should leave now. I'm sorry for not treating you well this time. I'll invite you guys to get together again next time if there's a chance."

Li Lian frowned, a little dissatisfied. "We are right, so why should we be afraid of them?"

Temujin sighed and said, "This world doesn't judge people by what's reasonable or unreasonable. Our Temu family has three branches, and the one you targeted, Temuzhu, happens to be the most important. They won't give up after beating him like this. Forget my branch, even if the other two factions unite, you won't gain any advantage."

Temu Qingcao and Yun Duo on the side were also very anxious. They looked at Mu Zheng and the others and said, "Yes, you should leave quickly. Let Temujin take care of this matter."

Mu Zheng bit his lip. After all, this royal city was the territory of the Timu family. A strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake. What's more, Timuzhen was here, so he couldn't make things difficult for him.

"Brother Temujin, I'm really sorry to have caused you trouble. We'll leave now." Mu Zheng bowed to Temujin and prepared to leave with Li Lian.

Unexpectedly, before they even left the house, a roar was heard from outside the door.

"Who beat my grandson? It's totally lawless." Looking up, I saw a tall man with a ruddy face walking in from outside the door.

He looks quite old, but in good spirits.

He held a scimitar, a type unique to the grasslands, and blocked the entrance. "Leave? No one is leaving today."

Temujin's face changed drastically, and at this moment a servant stood up and pointed at Mu Zheng, "Master, it was them, they beat Young Master Zhu."

The old man's eyes became fierce, and he raised his knife and slashed at Mu Zheng.

Mu Zheng stepped back and barely avoided it.

The old man was about to attack again when someone shouted, "Stop!"

Mu Zheng put away his hands that were ready to fight back, and saw Temujin and an old man walking up.

"Are you okay?" Temujin looked Mu Zheng up and down, fearing that he was hurt.

Mu Zheng shook his head.

"Temujin, you must give me an explanation for what happened today. Temuzhu is your younger brother, and you just watched him get bullied? Humph, even if our Zhu'er doesn't inherit the family throne, we have the power to decide who will be the head of the family."

At this point, the old man looked at Mu Zheng and said, "Whoever made a move today will have his hand left behind."

Hearing this, Mu Zheng's eyes lit up with murderous intent. "Humph, you want me to leave one hand behind? Fine, I can guarantee that when I leave my hand behind, you won't have a good life either."

Seeing that the old man was about to get angry again, Temujin immediately stepped forward and said, "Third Grandpa, what happened today..."

Temujin explained the whole story in detail. The old man frowned, but still said, "Even so, they shouldn't lay a hand on my grandson."

"Your grandson is about to kill someone, and we can't fight back?" Li Lian was also very unhappy.

Mu Zheng gave Li Lian a look. He didn't want Temujin to be embarrassed by this.

Temujin also took the opportunity to say, "Third Grandfather, the matter is very clear. This matter was originally caused by Azhu. Moreover, these people are my lifelong friends. Without them, I can't guarantee that I can bring back the military token."

The old man snorted again. "You paid them to protect you, so that's their duty. Besides, this is different from hitting Ah Zhu. Okay, for your sake, I'll spare their hands. All you have to do is kneel down before Ah Zu and kowtow."

Ok?

Mu Zheng immediately clenched his hands, and Li Lian was about to curse.

"Third Grandpa." Temujin hadn't expected the old man to be so stubborn. He stepped forward, his eyes determined. "I've explained the whole story clearly. It was Azhu who caused this. My friend was nearly beaten to death by him. I think it's Azhu who should admit his mistake."

"Zhen'er!" Not only Mu Zheng and the others, but Temujin's grandfather also did not expect that Temujin would stand up and fight the third brother at this time.

What had he just told him? He had told him to learn to sacrifice his position to protect his opponent at the critical moment. This kid had simply forgotten it the moment he turned around.

The Third Master obviously didn't expect Temujin to say such a thing. He looked at him coldly and said, "Ah Zhen, are you trying to push our Third House to Temujin's side?"

Temujin's eyes flickered, then became resolute. "Before becoming a family head, the most important thing is to be a good person. If I can only gain the position of family head by betraying and sacrificing my friends, abandoning them without caring about them, I would rather not have it. Besides, are you willing to follow such a family head?"

"Good, very good. Temujin, you said this." The third master pointed at Temujin and said, "They favor outsiders. I really can't serve a family like this."

After saying that, he pointed at Mu Zheng and said, "I'm going to make this clear today. If you guys can get out of the royal city, I'm not a member of the Timu clan!"
