Gourmet Girl: Becoming a Royal Merchant Started from Selling Buns

But before she could make any move, Fu Zhun grabbed her into his arms and held her tightly.

There was some excitement in his voice as he hurriedly explained to Su An.

"No, although I want to be with you, I respect your decision even more. I'm just afraid that you made a hasty decision without thinking clearly and will regret it later."

"Don't worry, although I, Su An, am not a gentleman, I will not regret what I have said."

Su An pushed him away, patted his chest and said so.

Looking at her like this, Fu Zhun was stunned, feeling a little amused and helpless.

However, since Su An has already agreed, in order to avoid any further trouble, they should leave as soon as possible to prevent those old stubborn people in the court from causing trouble again.

Fu Zhun held Su An's arm with a smile in his eyes.

"In that case, then it's settled. We'll leave together at noon tomorrow."

Su An nodded heavily and agreed immediately.

"Okay, then we'll see you tomorrow."

After talking things out, Fu Zhun became much more unrestrained. He hugged Su An for a long time before leaving reluctantly.

Su An finally untied the knot in his heart and followed his inner feelings. He was immersed in a joyful atmosphere, humming a little tune while packing his things.

But what was unexpected was that an uninvited guest soon came to the bun shop.

This man had white hair and beard, and was wearing a dark purple official uniform. He had a gentle face and looked knowledgeable.

When Su An saw the person coming, he was stunned for a moment, but then he bowed to him respectfully.

"I, Su An, greet Mr. Yao. I wonder what you want to tell me when you come to my bun shop?"

Yao Qingwen stroked his beard and stared at Su An with his cloudy old eyes.

Suddenly, he hunched over and knelt down towards Su An with a thud.

This scared Su An so much.

Not to mention that Yao Qingwen is a veteran of three dynasties, even if he is just an ordinary old man, I am not worthy of his kneeling.

Su An's face changed and he hurried forward to help him up.

"What is Mr. Yao doing? If you have something to say, just talk it out. Why do you have to use such a grand ceremony? Su An is so immoral and incompetent that he really can't bear it."

But it was obvious that Yao Qingwen had made up his mind and refused to get up. No matter how Su An pulled him, he knelt straight on the ground and refused to move at all.

He had a righteous look on his face, and his old voice was filled with grief and indignation.

"I came here today to ask you to show some mercy and leave a way for the people of our Great Chu to live!"

Su An's face darkened as he heard these words, and anger built up in his heart.

She frowned, looked at Yao Qingwen in confusion, and asked doubtfully.

"Isn't what Mr. Yao said outrageous? I'm just a commoner selling buns. How can I endanger the people of Da Chu? Not to mention leaving any way for them to survive? Su An couldn't understand what Mr. Yao said."

After hearing this, Yao Qingwen stopped playing dumb with her and simply bowed to her.

"The King of Zhenbei is a martial arts master with extraordinary talent and wisdom. It can be said that the entire Great Chu is prosperous and standing firm because of the King of Zhenbei. But now the King of Zhenbei is going to give up the entire Great Chu for the sake of this girl."

"If the King of Zhenbei were to leave, the court would be in chaos, and the people of the world would be in chaos as well. Therefore, I came here this time to ask the young lady to show some mercy and leave us a way out!"

For a moment, Su An felt mixed emotions.

Although she really didn't want to give up Fu Zhun, Yao Qingwen was right. Fu Zhun had long become the pillar of Da Chu.

Once he leaves the court, the ministers will become scattered, and other countries will take advantage of the situation to invade. At that time, the country will no longer be a country, and the family will no longer be a family. How can they live in peace?

But she had clearly already agreed with Fu Zhun yesterday. If she went back on her word now, Fu Zhun would definitely be sad.

Moreover, Fu Zhun is also a human being. Asking him to give up the life he wants to create a peaceful and prosperous world and protect millions of people is too cruel for him.

She frowned and sighed for a moment, staring at Yao Qingwen with a dim gaze.

"So what do you want me to do? Refuse him? But Fu Zhun isn't a tool you use to stabilize the court. He's a living person. Have you considered his feelings?"

Hearing this, Yao Qingwen not only did not feel guilty, but straightened his back and said it as a matter of course.

"For the sake of the people, someone has to make sacrifices. Now that we've reached this position, we should be ready to sacrifice for the people at any time."

"Now the people of Da Chu need the King of Zhenbei, so the King of Zhenbei must not leave."

As he said this, he raised his head and stared at Su An.

"I know that the King of Zhenbei is deeply in love with you and will never give up easily, so I ask you to die for the millions of people in Da Chu!"

what? !!

She originally thought that this old man was trying to persuade her to give up Fu Zhun, and she even hesitated for a moment.

No matter how much she planned, she never expected that this old man was here to take her life.

The lives of millions of people are lives, but her life is not a life?

As soon as these words came out, Su An's anger suddenly rushed to her chest, and she could no longer suppress it.

She laughed in anger, put her hands on her hips, pointed at Yao Qingwen's nose and cursed.

"Bah! I'm not a sinner, why should I die? Considering you're a veteran of three dynasties, I've been more tolerant of you, but you're just being so arrogant. If you have the ability, go handle the government! What's the point of embarrassing a weak woman like me here?"

"Because you are incompetent, you insist on shifting the blame onto others. Is this the style of you, the veterans of three dynasties?"

Yao Qingwen's face turned red and green as she spoke.

The next moment, the person kneeling on the ground suddenly stood up with determination in his eyes.

"If I had this ability, I would definitely not shirk my responsibility, but now, I have no other choice. But don't worry, young lady, I will never let you die in vain. I will return your life!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Su An's eyes were flashed with a cold light.

Immediately afterwards, Yao Qingwen was seen holding a dagger in his hand and stabbing towards his heart.

Su An's eyes widened suddenly and he quickly stepped forward to stop him.

But in the end, he was still a step too late. The sharp dagger pierced into the flesh, and blood dripped onto the ground along the sharp blade of the dagger, blooming blood flowers on the ground.

Fortunately, the dagger was deflected by Su An's interference and did not hit any vital parts, so Yao Qingwen did not die.

Otherwise, if someone died here, she would really lose her life.

What a bunch of lunatics!

Su An felt a chill in his heart and said with a frown.

"Okay, you don't have to say anything more. I will take my family away from the capital and hide far away. I will never appear here again."
