Rebirth: Degenerate Slave Abuses Tyrant Chapter 56

“If the young master needs something, just me know,” Zhao Fu couldn’t wait any longer. He knew Luo Wei had something difficult to ask him, so he asked directly, “Your humble servant will do his utmost to accomplish whatever it is the young master wishes.”

The corner of Luo Wei’s lips curled upwards into a smile, then pulled out an emerald green thumb ring, pa.s.sing it to the eunuch, “I was just thinking something over. Mister, I got this on the way back to the capital and wanted to gift it to you, but I didn’t know if you’d like it or not.”

Zhao Fu’s face broke into a bright smile, “Young master! How could I… oh!” He received the gift with both hands, “Whatever the young master likes, your humble servant shall love.” Zhao Fu loved jade and emerald pieces. This thumb ring from Luo Wei was a piece of high cla.s.s warm jade, it wasn’t cheap, and Zhao Fu thanked Luo Wei over and over again.

Luo Wei made some more small talk with Zhao Fu, but in the end decided not to reveal what he wished to do with Ning Fei’s family. That baby he’d taken from the Zheng family had only entered the palace last night, but Luo Wei heard from Zhao Fu’s gossip that the child had already been ordered by imperial edict to be castrated. Luo Wei couldn’t stop himself from feeling bad about it, and didn’t know if this was what affected him and caused him to show mercy for Ning Fei’s family.

Zhao Fu was all smiles when he left.

Since the emperor was still having his noon break, Luo Wei took the chance and went to the camp of the capital’s general to seek out his older brother, Luo Ze. He wanted to ask his brother to send some good men to Ming Jian Villa, and make sure Ning Fei’s family got to the capital safe.

Luo Ze didn’t understand Luo Wei’s logic, “Why are we helping him now?”

Luo Wei asked a question instead, “Big brother, what’s your impression of him?”

Luo Ze thought about it a bit, then said, “Stubborn as a mule, but he’s got b.a.l.l.s.”

Luo Wei then smiled, “Big brother, I wanted to try and see if we could tame this stubborn mule.”

“Fine,” Luo Ze waved a hand, “We’ll do as you say. I’ll send people right away.”

If he didn’t want to kill them, then he had to make sure he’s doing due diligence to protect them. Luo Wei reasoned with himself that this was him doing everything in his power to keep them alive. If Long Xuan still managed to find out about this, and those three members of Ning Fei’s family were killed, it wouldn’t be Luo Wei’s fault anymore.

“When are you planning to see Ning Fei?” Luo Ze asked.

“Let’s wait until his family gets here.” Luo Wei was looking around Luo Ze’s camp with great interest.

“Interested?” Luo Ze saw him looking around, and asked.

“So this is what a military camp looks like,” Luo Wei smiled, hiding the pain he felt inside with what looked to be childish wonder.

The Zhao brothers arrived at this moment, leading a squad of mounted soldiers into camp with them. The second Zhao brother, Zhao Jun Yi, only stopped his horse when he came within a feet of Luo Wei.

Luo Ze quickly s.h.i.+elded Luo Wei behind him and shouted at Zhao Jun Yi, “Are you crazy?!”

Zhao Jun Yi dismounted and shoved Luo Ze aside so he could speak with Luo Wei, “Xiao Wei, your older brother’s nagging like an old hen again. Maybe you should train with me later, we’ll get you big and strong.”

Luo Ze was snickering beside them, “Why wouldn’t Xiao Wei ask me to train him and instead ask you?”

Zhao Jun Yi tossed back a grin, “Why don’t we ask Xiao Wei to choose for himself, let’s see who he’d rather train with.”

Luo Wei a.s.sessed the situation, then jogged to the elder Zhao brother instead, leaving both Luo Ze and Zhao Jun Yi behind, “Then I’ll go with Big brother Zhao instead.”

Zhao Jun Bo laughed heartily, resting a friendly hand on Luo Wei’s shoulder, “Look, Xiao Wei’s got good taste!”

Luo Ze and Zhao Jun Yi were dumbstruck for a moment, then both shook their fists at Luo Wei, “You little sneak, what about us two?”

Zhao Jun Bo gave Luo Wei a look and raised his eyebrows, “Xiao Wei, did you hear that? It’s suddenly ‘us two’ now.”

Luo Wei grinned and was just about to speak when he heard the sound of hooves from outside the camp’s gates. He turned quickly to see who it was, and discovered the junior chancellor’s eldest son, Liu Wu Sheng, looking back at him with his own soldiers following close behind.
