As soon as the Moon Festival passed, Yangjiazhai returned to its former peace.

After Yang Xu got up, he ate with the thrush, then wiped his mouth and went to the school in Houshan Bamboo Forest to continue teaching students.

The villagers who have learned to carve and weave are also busy again, working hard for a better future.

In the past, Yang Hongyu would also be busy with those villagers.

Her existence, for Yang Xu, is like a beautiful landscape, every time she passes by, she can't help but take a few more looks.

But today, for some reason, Yang Hongyu was missing, so that when Yang Xu taught students, he couldn't help but glance out the window, looking absent-minded.

"Something must have happened......"

Yang Xu recalled that when he greeted the villagers along the way just now, some villagers looked at him strangely, and they felt that something was wrong at that time, and it was most likely related to him.

Could it be that the villagers have something to hide from themselves?

Everyone is your own person, so it's not interesting for you to do this......

When Yang Xu was teaching the children to read and write in the school, he suddenly faintly heard a rapid gong sound from the direction of the village.

"What's going on?"

Yang Xu was stunned for a moment, and then found that some older children in the school hall looked nervous.

"Sir, there's something going on in the stockade!"

Erya stood up, her little face a little pale.

"Huh? What's going on? ”

As soon as Yang Xu finished saying this, he saw the villagers who were carving and weaving in the bamboo forest, and immediately put down the work in their hands and ran towards the cottage.

Yang Xu had never encountered this situation since he came to Yangjiazhai, and he felt a little uneasy in his heart.

"I've heard my father say that when there is an emergency in the village, the gong will be sounded to warn!"

Er Ya pinched the corner of her clothes and said.

Yang Zhai's heart "chuckled", if what Erya said was true, then something important must have happened to Yang Jiazhai.

"Let's go, let's see!"

Yang Xu took a group of children out of the school and ran to the cottage.

When I arrived at the cottage, I found that the doors of every house were wide open, and there was no one inside.

All the villagers gathered in the open space at the entrance of the village, each holding an iron fork and wooden stick and other instruments in their hands, and looked at the road leading to the mountain with hatred.

The woman standing at the front of the villagers, dressed in white, with light hair, and holding a short sword in her left hand, was Yang Hongyu.

Yang Xing, Yang Jing, Yang Dazhi and others stood behind Yang Hongyu, and everyone had sticks and swords in their hands.

Although Zhao has been peaceful for decades, the folk martial arts are still prevalent, and the people in some places have a tradition of practicing martial arts and self-defense, and the government's control over ordinary swords and other instruments is also relatively relaxed, but armor, bows, crossbows, spears and other weapons that can attack from a distance and have greater lethality are not allowed to be owned by private individuals.

Even if it is an ordinary sword, it is not easy to build, and ordinary people can't afford to wear it at all.

The few swords in Yangjiazhai were left by the ancestors back then, and only Yang Hongyu and others with martial arts had them.

Yang Xu squeezed from among the villagers to the front, standing side by side with Yang Xing and the others, looking up, his brows couldn't help frowning.

I saw that on the only road down the mountain, thirty zhang away from the entrance of the village, hundreds of people had gathered at this moment.

Those quick arresters, all wearing swords, look at their fierce and murderous appearances, and know that the comer is not good.

"What are these people doing?"

Yang Xu asked Yang Xing beside him in a low voice.

Yang Xing turned his head and glanced at him: "Come and ask for someone." ”

Yang Xu was suddenly stunned.

Last night, Zhou Chengde's second son, Zhou Tong, was caught in the village by them during the inspection of Jinyang City, and Yang Hongyu asked Zhou Chengde to come in person to apologize to the dignitaries, but he didn't expect the other party to come so soon.

"Where is it like apologizing for being so excited? It's like a ...... to threaten and intimidate."

Yang Xu muttered.

Yang Xing sneered: "A group of rabble, it's just a bluff!" If they dare to come hard, we will also dare to resist, and forgive the inspection that the inspector will not dare to make a big deal about it. Otherwise, he will provoke a civil uprising, and he will not be able to eat and walk around! ”

Yesterday, when Yang Hongyu and others arrested Zhou Tong in the village, Yang Xu was still thinking that the people would not fight with the officials, and he was a little worried.

Thinking about it, the inspection envoy brought hundreds of fast arresters, and once there was a conflict with Yangjiazhai, it would be a fight between hundreds of people.

Today, Emperor Zhao Guoqing Long appointed talents, made great efforts, and created a prosperous situation that has not been seen in a hundred years, if the inspection makes the people revolt and make trouble, once it reaches the heavens, it is a great event, and the black gauze hat on the head is light.

And Yang Hongyu, Yang Xing and others must have taken this into account, so they will have no fear and dare to argue with Zhou Chengde, the inspection envoy.

Yang Hongyu heard Yang Xu's voice, glanced back at him, and then quickly shifted her gaze away, and said to Yang Dazhi: "Dazhi, you go and call Fugui and bring that Zhou Tong over." ”

Yang Dazhi responded and left quickly.

"Mr. Yang......"

Yang Hongyu watched Yang Dazhi leave, then looked at Yang Xu again, and said softly: "The other party is not good, in case there is a conflict between the two and two, don't hurt you." You...... Let's go back to the stockade first......"

Although her complexion was still cold, there was a little more concern in her words.

Yang said that he had never heard her speak so gently, his heart warmed, and he grinned: "Thank you for your concern!" But now I am also a member of the stockade, and if there is something in the stockade, how can I retreat? I've decided to go with you! ”

Yang Hongyu pondered for a moment, and then looked at Yang Xing.

Yang Xing understood what she meant, and patted his chest with a smile: "Don't worry, Mr. Yang has handed it over to you, and I promise not to let him be hurt a little." ”

Yang Hongyu nodded, stopped talking, and turned her head to look at the fast catchers thirty zhang away, her eyes became cold again.

At this moment, there was a commotion among the fast catchers, and they all flashed to both sides, and then a white horse slowly came out of the crowd.

The person on the horse, dressed in a white robe, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, his face is like a crown of jade, and there is a touch of arrogance in his expression, it is Zhou Yi, who Yang Xu has a relationship with on the bank of the Yishui River and has threatened Yang Xu.

"Why is that oily-haired little white face here?"

When Yang Xu saw Zhou Yi, he couldn't help but be stunned.

"Does the gentleman recognize the man?"

Yang Xing asked in a low voice on the side.

Yang Xu pouted: "Recognize...... It seems to be called Zhou Yi, what is the president of the poetry club, and what are the four great talents......"

Yang Xing's heart moved, and he silently recited the name Zhou Yi in his heart a few times, and raised his eyelids: "I remembered...... That Zhou Yi is Zhou Tong's eldest brother and the eldest son of Zhou Chengde, the inspection envoy of Jinyang City! ”

Then he touched his chin and said, "Could it be that Zhou Chengde can't wipe his face and let his eldest son come over to apologize?" Hey...... That Zhou Yi is a literati, he looks young, and most of him is a noble and arrogant character, but I want to see if he can lower that noble head! ”

Zhou Yi urged him to step forward, followed by several fast catchers with swords.

Those quick officials looked nervous and cautious, as if Yangjiazhai was some ominous place.

This is not to blame them, it is really the area of Yangjiazhai, in the war years before Zhao Guoguo, it was a place where heroes in the green forest gathered, and everyone talked about it.

After Zhao Guoguo, people were determined, so those green forest heroes walked away, scattered, and some of the people left behind also changed from evil to good, naturalized and good, and the Yangjiazhai area was considered to be stable.

It's just the name of the person, the shadow of the tree, most of those who catch the fast guards, most of them have heard of the murderous name of Yangjiazhai, this inspection made Lord Zhou send them here to save people, in their eyes it is tantamount to grabbing food, not nervous is strange.
