Shangyuan House. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
In a small mountain village, hundreds of embarrassed hunters suddenly poured out, and immediately surrounded the surrounding villagers.
As for this group of embarrassed people, it was Ye Chen and the others who had just worked hard to get in.
"Young Master, what should we do now?" Hu Guang asked.
Ye Chen glanced at everyone, after these few days, they had long lost their enthusiasm before they came, but fortunately, they all persevered.
And on the way, three or four people were accidentally attacked by wild beasts, and they died on the spot.
"You take them to find a place to rest first, and by the way, change into clean clothes, and I'll go find out the news."
After speaking, Ye Chen walked to the villagers watching them and asked, "Old man, may I ask where is this, is it far away from Hexian?" ”
"Who are you, a wild man in the mountains?" A child asked.
As soon as the child finished speaking, he was pulled behind him by an adult next to him, and then looked at Ye Chen apologetically, worried that Ye Chen would be angry.
"Savages?"
Ye Chen was stunned for a moment, only then did he realize that his body was already dirty, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was a wild man.
When Ye Chen was in a daze, a white-haired old man came out of the crowd, and the surrounding villagers hurriedly got out of the way when they saw the old man, and they all saluted respectfully.
"This little brother, you should be an adventurer from outside, I haven't heard of anyone going up the mountain recently, and there are so many people." The old man touched his beard and said.
"Yes, we are indeed adventurers outside, but we were in distress on the way, so we came here by mistake, and asked the old man to show us the way, we will be grateful."
Ye Chen agreed, and at the same time took out a silver ticket, the amount on which was one hundred taels.
This money is not worth mentioning at all in Ye Chen's eyes, but it is different in the eyes of this group of villagers, let alone a hundred taels, even ten taels is a huge amount of money.
If it weren't for the fact that there was a group of people behind Ye Chen, they would all want to pick up Ye Chen's essence now.
Among them, the only one who can maintain his clarity now is the old man.
At this time, a young man suddenly spoke: "I know where Hexian is, is the silver ticket really given to us?" There was greed in his eyes.
"Yes, as long as you tell the truth, the money will be handed over to you." Ye Chen nodded.
"Lutang, don't talk nonsense." The old man scolded the young man who spoke just now, then walked up to Ye Chen and looked at him carefully.
After a while, the old man slowly spoke: "You are not an adventurer, you have killed people, and there is more than one." ”
As soon as the words fell, greed disappeared in the eyes of the villagers in an instant, and everyone's eyes looked at Ye Chen vigilantly, worried that Ye Chen would do wrong to them.
Although Ye Chen was shocked in his heart, he still said plainly on his face: "Hehe, the old man said that it was funny, we killed lives, but we never killed people, I am afraid that the old man misunderstood." ”
The old man saw that Ye Chen deliberately diverted the topic, and he didn't continue to ask, and replied:
"Hexian is fifty miles to the south, you can rest for one night and set off, you should be able to arrive tomorrow, as for the money, it's just a gesture."
Although he also wanted the silver ticket in Ye Chen's hand, Ye Chen's identity really made him a little worried, in case they took the money, it would be more than worth the loss, and this was not without precedent.
Therefore, for the safety of himself and the villagers, the old man decided to send Ye Chen away quickly.
Although it was the first time he encountered this kind of thing, Ye Chen immediately thought of the reason and said: "The old man is too worried, this is what you deserve, if you deserve it, answer me another question." ”
After speaking, he took out another hundred taels of silver tickets, this is not that Ye Chen has a lot of money and has no place to spend, but in the year of the great drought this year, Shangyuan Mansion has also been affected, looking at the skinny appearance of this group of people, Ye Chen wants to help if he can.
"This..."
The old man hesitated, this is two hundred silver tickets, if he accepts it, their village will have food and clothing for the coming year.
Just as the old man was hesitating, a child's voice came from the side.
"Grandpa, you can take it, so I can eat more at night."
Ye Chen looked up and found that there was a little boy hiding behind everyone, looking like he was in good spirits, but he was thin into a skeleton.
"Well, the old man is disrespectful, what does this little brother want to know, just ask." The old man agreed, agreeing to gamble.
"Actually, it's nothing, it's just that we came in from outside Shangyuan Mansion and found that the city gate outside was closed, curious about what happened here?" Ye Chen asked with a knock on the side.
"It turns out that this is the case, it's really time for you to come, and we just know why, Lutang, go and bring the notice you saw in the town today." The old man laughed and shouted at the person next to him. The man named Lu Tang agreed, and then ran quickly into the village, and in a short time handed a notice to the old man.
"This little brother, see for yourself, this is just posted in the town this morning, I don't know if it's true or not, the eldest lady turned out to be just the righteous daughter of the general, and now she has imprisoned the general in a vain attempt to seize the throne."
"What did you say!" Ye Chen was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly began to look at the notice, and the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became.
"Thank you, old man, I'll take this away, the silver ticket is here, I hope what we have happened today, don't go out and talk nonsense, say goodbye."
Ye Chen threw down the silver ticket and ran outside in a panic, wanting to catch up with Hu Guang and the others in front of him as soon as possible.
Before he came, he had been thinking about who hated him so much that he dared to let people frame him in Zhenyuan Mansion, but now he understands that all this was premeditated.
Especially what Wang Ze told him a few days ago, in the past few months, rumors about him have been circulating throughout Zhenyuan Mansion.
Now seeing Fang Zhi's notice, Ye Chen finally understood the reason, the notice said that Xia Ningdie was originally the daughter of a singer, and she became Wang Zhitian's righteous daughter for the sake of glory and wealth, and lied that she was her own daughter.
Not only that, but the notice also said that in order to seize the position of general, Xia Ningdie first imprisoned the general's righteous son Wang Jun, and now he has imprisoned the general, and even he was not spared.
Now a notice was specially issued to let the people of Linzhou know the truth, and to write to the imperial court, so that Emperor Qi and the Liu family of the Fang family could deal with Xia Ningdie together.
Hu Guang in front saw Ye Chen running over and said, "Young Master, what's wrong with you, your face is so bad?" ”
Ye Chen handed the notice just now to Hu Guang and sighed, "Look at it yourself." ”
Ye Chen suddenly regretted a little, if he hadn't come here, he could have faced all this with Xia Ningdie.
Now, she can only face it alone.
Fortunately, Ye Chen is not a sentimental person, he just wants to find Zhang Qian and Hongxiang quickly, and then return to Zhenyuan Mansion to tell Xia Ningdie the truth. (To be continued.) )
