After lunch, Chen Jinye always thought about the Xicheng River, so he set up a carriage, and Hongling pouted Chen Jinye and said: "Didn't the people say that the rice was eaten before...", Chen Jinye smiled, and then jumped on the wall, and after a while, Chen Jinye stole a bag of rice and came back.

So the two of them staggered on the road to the Xicheng River.

"Lord Ye, when do you think Lao Song will be okay?"

Chen Jinye glanced back slightly, and saw the old man with his neck stretched out of the carriage chatting with him, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, and said slowly: "It's about two or three days in another year."

Hong Ling nodded as if she didn't understand, and then muttered something, Chen Jinye didn't hear clearly, so Chen Jinye stretched out his hand and pulled Hong Ling out, "What did you just say?" ”。

"It's nothing, it's just that I wonder why your imperial brother hasn't moved at all this time."

Speaking of this, Chen Jinye was silent again, Hongling knew that he would be like this, so she slowly leaned on the railing of the carriage and closed her eyes, such a carriage is best for enjoying the breeze with your eyes closed.

In this way, the two came to the bank of the Xicheng River without a word, and as soon as the carriage stopped, Xiao Si happily greeted him, "His Royal Highness the Prince, Red Girl."

With the guidance of Xiao Si, Chen Jinye and Hongling came to the wooden house where the people lived, at this time the people sitting around the house were tinkering with the tools in their hands, Chen Jinye looked around for a week and didn't see Bai Ju, so he asked, "Where is Bai Ju?" ”。

"His Royal Highness the Prince, Prince Bai Ju took some people to repair the dam"

Chen Jinye naturally found a vacant seat and sat down, but the people hung their heads one by two with strange expressions, Chen Jinye slowly picked up a broken wooden stick from the ground, "Can this stick still work?" ”。

Everyone looked at each other for a moment, and then replied, "It can be used with a little cut, but there is a stick next to it to replace it, and I don't want this stick to be of much effect."

Chen Jinye bowed slightly, and then picked up a deformed shovel, "Can this shovel still be repaired?" ”。

He replied: "Although the head of this shovel is deformed, there is still a way to repair it, and it takes some effort."

"And what about these?"

Chen Jinye pointed to the sawdust that could not be picked up on the ground and asked, and the people were a little relieved for a while, and looked at each other for a few times before replying sporadically: "I'm afraid these scraps are useless."

Chen Jinye bowed his head, and then put the wooden stick and iron head in his hand on the ground, and carefully looked at the work in the hands of the people.

Among them, the old man who took the lead in criticizing Chen Jinye a few days ago finally couldn't help it with shame, "His Royal Highness the Prince, I have really lived in vain for so long, all the incidents a few days ago were done by me at the instigation of everyone, and now we are all grateful to be able to return here safely, but everything has a result and a reason, I am the one who started it, His Royal Highness the Prince, please punish me, if you are wrong, you are wrong."

Chen Jinye raised his head and glanced at the old man casually, and then slowly said: "Some things are in the past, I don't care, but it is undeniable that these things will have a slightly different impact on my heart and everyone's heart, in this way, anyway, it has an impact on everyone, so there is no unfairness, but it makes everyone think clearly about what they want, after this incident, I did think about a lot of truth, but in the final analysis, it is actually very simple, that is, I will not force you to do what you don't want to do, The previous matter has come to an end now, I don't want to mention it again, and I don't want to punish any of you, but I have to make it clear, in the future, if any of you want to go back to the city and don't want to do it, just say it, I will naturally send someone to escort you back to the west city, but if you decide to stay, please listen to the command, after all, I don't want to spend my mind on some irrelevant people."

"But I'm really ashamed of His Royal Highness the Prince, and it's really hard to hold my head up, if it weren't for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who came forward to save us this time, then I would be a sinner among the entire people, and I would be shameless to face the villagers and you and the old Song craftsman."

As he spoke, the old man covered his head and hung his head in pain, whimpering incessantly.

Chen Jinye glanced at him coldly, and said: "This is the fruit of everyone's own causes, the guilt that haunts your hearts every day is already a great punishment for you, and this king doesn't want to say the so-called forgiveness against his will, but he can't punish you this king, since you feel that you are tortured like this now, it is better to treat this as this king's punishment for you."

After that, Chen Jinye took Hong Ling's hand and quickly walked out of the wooden house, Hong Ling could see how happy he was after saying that large number of words, that kind of happiness was based on revenge, and he felt that his revenge was very cool.

This feeling may be the same as when she transferred all her family's savings out of the bank.

Thinking of the past, Hong Ling shook her head helplessly, she hadn't dreamed of that world for a long time, and she didn't even think about it very much, but now that she thought about it seriously, she didn't have that sense of heaviness, Hong Ling smiled speechlessly, thinking that her situation was much easier than Chen Jinsong, and it was lucky that she could still go through the rivers and lakes with Chen Jinye.

"What are you laughing at?"

As soon as Hong Ling raised her head, she met Chen Jinye's inquiring eyes, Hong Ling smiled, "Guess", after saying that, she shook off Chen Jinye's hand and ran to the bank of the Xicheng River.

Chen Jinye was infected by the freedom and joy she released, so she also ran happily towards the Xicheng River, they stood on the bank together, Hongling opened her arms, closed her eyes, and felt the blowing of the river breeze, Chen Jinye stood quietly aside, carefully taking Hongling's expression into his eyes and hiding it in his heart.

Suddenly, Hongling closed her eyes and asked, "Chen Jinye, you said you like me, but is it true?" ”。

Chen Jinye was stunned for a moment, looked at Hongling more affectionately, and said, "Naturally, it's true."

"What about Yu Fangfei? Didn't you say she was the one you love the most? ”

Hong Ling slowly lowered her arm, opened her eyes and turned to stare at Chen Jinye seriously, the consideration and probing in her eyes made Chen Jinye a little overwhelmed, I saw him swallow his saliva, and then reached out to pinch Hong Ling's shoulder, and said: "I don't know what kind of emotion this is, I often think about my feelings for her, but it's strange, the more I think about it, the more I can't remember what she looks like, but I like you, there is no doubt about it."

Hong Ling sneered, then slowly pushed Chen Jinye's hand away, then turned to look at the undulating river, and muttered, "I won't allow myself to be a third party."

Chen Jinye frowned suspiciously, "What is a third party?" ”。

"A person who intervenes in other people's feelings"

Hong Ling slowly turned around and skipped Chen Jinye, "So, please don't like me anymore, when you become the emperor in the future, I will leave, I will find the only person who is good to me, please, just be my friend."

After that, Hongling strode in the direction of the station, Chen Jinye stood on the bank of the Xicheng River, and the sentence kept echoing in his mind: Please don't like me anymore.

I don't know why, his heart was a little dull, as if he had been punched hard, this was a perception he had never had, he slowly covered his chest, and muttered: "Friend, friend......".

In the evening, Bai Ju rushed back from the dam with everyone, and saw a familiar white figure squatting on the riverbank from a distance.

"Lord Wang, what are you doing here?"

Chen Jinye wiped his face slightly, then slowly turned around and stood up, chuckled, and said, "It's nothing, how are you doing today?" ”。

Bai Ju also laughed when he saw Chen Jinye laughing, waved his hand arrogantly, and said: "It's very enjoyable, if you go to make a day of strength tomorrow, then the dam stone can be completely reset."

Chen Jinye bowed slightly, and then pointed to the station in the distance and said: "It just so happens that everyone is tired, I specially got another bag of rice, and everyone will improve their food today."

Hearing this, Bai Ju hurriedly conveyed behind him: "Did you hear it!" Today, the prince brought rice to the big guys to eat", and after that, he walked to the station with Chen Jinye again and again.

Back at the station, Chen Jinye first took the rice from the carriage, everyone also came out of the wooden house and gathered together, the women quickly cooked the stewed fish and rice, Chen Jinye secretly glanced at Hongling, who was talking and laughing beside Xiao Si not far away, and when he saw her smiling, the dull pain in his heart seemed to be eliminated a little.

Chen Jinye couldn't help but sigh that she was a miracle doctor who was a little more powerful than Zou Shi, but he just lost the opportunity to worship her as a teacher, thinking about it, Chen Jinye's heart shrank again, and the pain came a little more violently.

After dinner, everyone dispersed, and Bai Ju also asked the craftsmen to go to rest earlier, and in the gap of this hour and a half, the shouting followed-

"Oh no! Oh no! ”

Bai Ju stared in the direction of the shouting and asked loudly, "What happened?" He went in that direction.

Chen Jinye slowly stood up from the ground, looked in the direction of the distance, and then came to Hongling and asked, "Let's go and have a look?" ”。

Hongling bowed her head and dragged Xiao Si to stand up, Chen Jinye looked at his empty palms and felt extremely uncomfortable.

"What happened?"

"The tools which we have repaired today have been destroyed again, and. It's not good to fix it now."

Chen Jinye looked in the direction pointed by the old man, and saw that the ground was a mess, not to mention that every wooden stick was good, and even the iron heads were extremely deformed one by two......
