Outside the forests in the south of the Yangtze River, Xu Manxiu and Yan Song are still hiding in a cave, these days, these villagers are still biting her, even if she has a reason to explain, she will die under their shovels if she has no chance to explain to them. They had been lurking for a day and a night, fainting from hunger, and the sound www.biquge.info of a fight was heard in their ears. At first, I thought it was a hallucination of being hungry for a long time, but the sound of the fight became clearer and clearer.

"It can't be the villagers chasing after you, right?" Xu Manxiu got up cautiously, but after thinking about it carefully, how could there be a fighting sound if it was just a villager.

"Probably not, but there are more people on both sides of the voice, it seems that it is a premeditated ambush, so we better wait and see. Xu Manxiu also agreed with this, listening to the sound of the fight getting closer and closer, he found a hidden place to hide first. It wasn't until the figure appeared that the two of them could see the situation between the two sides clearly.

On one side is the caravan that has been on the road not long ago, and the leader is the second young man of the Chen family who is holding a big knife, while the other side is all dressed in white, covering their faces with white veils, looking like women, and they are organized killers. In this way, it seems that these women in white are ambushing on the road, preparing to assassinate the second young man of the Chen family.

Fortunately, the skills of the second young man of the Chen family are very good, although those women have made many tricks, but they have been flashed by the action of connecting a sideways bayonet with a big turn in the air. Apparently, the women were injured after a few rounds and decided to retreat. The strange thing is that the second young man of the Chen family was not ready to chase them, but instead prevented his men from chasing them. Yan Song didn't understand this.

"Childe, who are these people, you shouldn't be hurt, right?" Yan Song recognized the girl next to Chenyue at a glance, Ah Dong who was wearing a gorgeous costume and the judgment when he was in Yan's mansion, it was like the original innocence between the eyebrows, but the light makeup revealed luxury, and he looked at the guards on the side and said slightly angrily, "If you let Childe get hurt, I can't spare you!"

"What someone!" Chen Yue looked at the grass vigilantly, and the two of them didn't want to hide it, and walked out brightly, but Ah Dong's expression was slightly surprised and nervous. Naturally, Chenyue is also strange.

"Miss Yan, and Xu Gongzi...... How did you two end up here?"

Before Xu Manxiu could answer, Ah Dong preemptively said, "Miss, isn't it...... Did Ah Qiu say something that you came with you?"

She understood Ah Dong's thoughts best, tugging at the corners of her mouth and smiling, "Ah Qiu, should Ah Qiu say something?"

Ah Dong buried his head and said aggrievedly, "Naturally not, Miss also knows that I have a deep relationship with Ah Qiu, but now that Ah Qiu is suffering, I don't say goodbye, and my heart is naturally unhappy." Miss, I shouldn't blame Ah Dong and hold a grudge against Ah Dong, right?"

Yan Song thought of Ah Qiu, who was ruined by her in the house, and looked at her now as if she was out of the way, naturally she was displeased, but this Chen family son is here, and it is not easy to find out directly, so she simply smiled and said, "Naturally not, besides, you are no longer a slave, and you don't have to call me Miss, just take care of the Chen family's son, don't think about other things, and don't do more." ”

Ah Dong lowered his head, and mentioned in his heart that this was clearly a warning to her, and it seemed that the matter that he had pushed Ah Qiu was still exposed. If Chenyue knew that she was such a person, she would definitely abandon her. This Yan Song is really a trouble!

"By the way, Second Son, who is the person who is chasing and killing you just now, looking at this dress, it should be a group of people. ”

Before Chen Yue could speak, the guards on the side preemptively replied, "Who else could there be?" It must be someone sent by the eldest prince, is there still a few assassinations like this along the way?"

"The eldest prince obviously wants to put the second son to death!" one of the black-faced guards said excitedly, "I have not done anything, and I am still jealous of others, what is wrong with the old man spoiling the second son? What is the matter with him! If the second prince hadn't endured everywhere, he would have died hundreds of times!"

"Shut up!" Chen Yue said in a deep voice as much as possible, "I said, the matter of the eldest brother must not be said and discussed, and you know how to punish it." The black-faced guard's face became darker and darker, and he consciously turned around, and slapped his cheek ten times in succession, and the sound of each stroke was crisp, and when he turned around again, he could find the palm print on that black face.

Chen Yue changed her tone and looked at Yan Song and asked, "But, Miss Yan, why are you here, it's some distance from the Five Villages?"

"I don't hide it from Childe, but it's actually a disaster caused by the cooperation I negotiated with Childe. ”

Chen Yue frowned slightly, but she didn't see the Sichuan character between his eyebrows, "Is it possible...... Is it the people from the three villages who are looking for trouble?"

Yan Song shook his head, "It's not all, Sancun originally came to ask me for a debt, but I rejected it at once." Unwilling, he spread rumors among the five villages, saying that he wanted to recover all the relief funds in the five villages this year. The villagers of the five villages were anxious when they heard this, so they chased us with shovels all the way. ”

Chen Yue chuckled, "The girl thinks about them a lot, and this group of fools doesn't think about it at all, and it is really chilling to fight back at once." I don't know that this relief money is issued by the imperial court, if you dare to deduct it, you will lose your head, but it is just a consistent trick of the three villages. ”

Xu Manxiu spoke for them, "Second son, they are ignorant villagers, and they are also making a living, so it's not wrong to think so." But now, we don't know how to explain it. I think that the bell must be tied to the bell, I wonder if the son can come forward?"

The black-faced guard was very calm this time, and he didn't step forward but swallowed all the words. Chen Yue thought for a moment and said, "Since that's the case, let's go to the three villages." Let me talk to the elders, maybe there will be a turnaround. "It's a good thing that Chenyue can agree to come forward, although those elders don't value her as a woman, but Chenyue's appearance represents the Chen family, no matter what, those people will give some thin noodles.

"Second Son?" Several elders came out to greet them one after another, and the surprise on their faces suddenly froze at the moment they saw Yan Song, "Isn't the second son already going back, why did he come back again, but what did he forget?"

Chen Yue smiled faintly, and then naturally sat in the center of the main hall, a sixteen-year-old boy, if it weren't for the fact that he was from the Chen family, these old stubborns would have driven him out long ago, "There is indeed one thing I forgot, my father used cotton dyes in the south of the Yangtze River before, and it was really good to use it for a few years." But why do I see farmers around the three villages who don't grow cotton?"

One of them explained, "Second son, this Jiangnan is very big, these three villages are just a material distribution center, and most of the cotton dedicated to Master Chen comes from the five villages. ”

"Oh, the five villages?" Chen Yue picked up the tea on the side and took a sip, "How did I hear that the villagers of these five villages often don't have enough to eat, and can only rely on the grain in their own fields to survive the winter." But isn't the deposit paid by my father to the elders a small amount?"

The man immediately changed direction and said, "This, this merchant should also make some small profits in the circulation of goods, the second son should understand." ”

The teacup in his hand smashed into two halves against the corner of the table, and then Chenyue's eyes became different from just now, "Oh? So, the goods you gave to Ben Gongzi are also mixed with moisture?"
