When Haruka heard this, her eyes couldn't help but shine,
"Let's go, let's see," she said busily,
Chai Dong bowed his head, grabbed her hand, and the two of them rushed out.
Seeing that they were gone, the people in the kitchen were full of doubts, and a few people followed their steps.
When Chai Dong and Chunzhi arrived in the front yard, they saw that the two boxes that had been placed here before had been opened and buckled upside down on the ground.
In the distance they heard the sound of scratching in the box—there were people inside,
"Go over, turn the box over," Chai Dong commanded in a deep voice,
The two slaves hurriedly stepped forward to open the box, one of which was empty, but the other was really holding a person inside.
He was dressed in black, and his head was also covered with a black cloth, and only a pair of eyes were exposed.
When the box on his head was lifted, he immediately jumped up, and was about to jump into a nearby tree, but as soon as the person jumped into the air, his body was stunned, and then he fell to the ground.
Chunzhi looked at it, only to find that this person was actually tied to a thin wire on his feet, and the wire was connected to the box, and it was directly pierced through a small hole under the box and fixed on the ground.
The two servants hurriedly ran over again, rolled up their sleeves and tried to hold the man down.
Chai Dong shook his head: "No need, let him stay like this,"
The slave immediately stopped, and the man in black quickly stood firm, staring straight at Chai Dong with a pair of exposed eyes,
Chai Dong looked at him indifferently, "You don't have to guard against me like this, I know that you are King Liang's person, and now I will keep you just to say a few words to you,"
"Chai Jieyuan, please speak," the man in black said in a deep voice,
It's really the person of King Liang,
After Chunzhi heard this, she was shocked in her heart, and Chai Dong guessed correctly again,
"You go back and tell him, you don't have to please me, you don't have to win me over, I have nothing to do with him before, and I won't have anything to do with him in the future, although I don't know what he plans in private now, but this does not prevent me from severing all relations with him, I, Chai Dong, will only enter the imperial examination in a dignified manner in the future, and then seek the well-being of the country and the people, I will not become anyone's lackey," Chai Dong declared loudly,
The man in black listened, but he replied: "Chai Jieyuan's words will inform my master in the future, but whether you listen to it or not, what will you do in the future, that is the master's business, and this cannot be the master in the future,"
"It doesn't matter, anyway, I'm just asking you to help pass on a word," Chai Dong bowed his head and nodded to Chunzhi again, "Where's the thing?"
Haruka hurriedly took out a bell ball from his sleeve,
Chai Dong threw the bell ball over, "This is a return gift for your master,"
The man in black stretched out his hand to take it, and immediately bowed: "Thank you Chai Jieyuan,"
After that, he rose into the air again, the wire didn't know when it had been untied, he jumped lightly on the big tree next to him, and after a few more vertical jumps, the person had already jumped out of the courtyard wall and disappeared.
Wang ran over out of breath at this time,
"Son, why did you let him go, and you didn't chase after him,"
"No need to chase, I originally set this trap just to have a few words with him, and now, now that the answer I want has been obtained, of course he can go," Chai Dong shook his head and said,
"What do you want to know the answer," Wang asked busily,
Chai Dong hooked his lips and smiled, but just turned around and walked back, "Okay, put away these two empty boxes, and then, we can celebrate the New Year with peace of mind,"
But when he returned to the room after finishing his work, Chai Dong quickly fell into deep thought again,
Chunzhi had been thinking about it for a long time, "Listening to that person, His Royal Highness King Liang doesn't seem to have any intention of letting us go," she whispered,
"Yes," Chai Dong bowed, "but I didn't expect him to let me go, I just said that just to trick him,"
"Then what did you come up with," Harueda asked hurriedly,
"A lot," Chai Dong smiled slightly, "First, my guess is correct, that person is indeed King Liang; Second, King Liang does have the intention of wooing me, and this intention should not be a bad thing; Third, he was very cautious, but ...... He also cares very much about the New Year's gift we prepared for him, otherwise, the man in black will not fall into the trap I set,"
Speaking of this, the corners of his lips hooked, "It looks like this, he still has a bit of a child's heart,"
Chunzhi pursed his lips, "If that's the case, that's really the case, then in this way, if we go to the capital again next year, we will have to deal with him again,"
"That's for sure," Chai Dong nodded, "but now that we've made sure that he has no ill intentions, then we can rest assured,"
Can you rest assured, how does Haruka think she just can't rest assured,
"Although he has no malicious intentions, who knows what kind of thoughts he has in his heart, there are so many ghosts, snakes and gods in that place in the capital, everyone has a mask on their faces, you can't tell what he is thinking just by looking at his face, I feel so tired just thinking about it," she muttered in a low voice,
Chai Dong smiled faintly again, "Sooner or later, you have to face it, and it is a good thing that you are mentally prepared early,"
"Okay," Haruka lowered her head helplessly, "I resigned myself to my fate,"
Who told her to marry such a father-in-law, originally she thought that she would be like her father and mother in this life, marry an honest farmer, and then the couple farmed and lived, raised a bunch of children, and a lifetime passed like that, but who knows, she married Chai Dong in a daze, and the young couple have been tossing and turning for years, how did it come to this point,
Right now, she can't accept her fate,
Chai Dong looked at her with such a helpless look, and hurriedly reached out and rubbed the top of her head: "Okay, it's okay, don't you still have me, I will definitely do my best to protect you,"
"I know," Harueda nodded, "Actually, I don't have much to worry about myself, I'm more worried about you,"
"Worry about me," Chai Dong raised his eyebrows,
Chunzhi nodded, "The last time you went to the capital, you were so impacted, if you go again this time, I'm afraid that more people related to the year will surface before and after, plus there is still this His Royal Highness King Liang making trouble on the side...... You're going to be tired,"
Chai Dong's eyes flashed, and a touch of emotion immediately appeared in his eyes,
"So you're thinking about me," he whispered, and as soon as he grabbed her hand, "then you can rest assured, I'm already ready,"
Haruka tugged at the corners of her mouth, "I know,"
However, this did not prevent her from worrying about him.
After this night's incident, Chai Dong and Chunzhi also let go of their minds, seeing that Chinese New Year's Eve is approaching day by day, the big fish and meat in their house have not been broken again, Chunzhi explained the kitchen, cook two more people's meals every day, and after it is done, put it in a bowl and put it in a corner of the yard, and then the person walks away, wait for half an hour to pass and look again, the two bowls are still there, that is, the food in the bowl has been swept away, only two clean empty bowls remain,
So, the time came on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve,
Late at night, the young King Liang finally returned to the palace with a cold air.
"Lord Wang,"
As soon as I entered the bedroom, I saw a strong man coming in with a bell ball.
King Liang raised his eyebrows, "Didn't this king let you keep an eye on them in Sanjiang Province, why did you come back?"
"Lord Wang, please rest assured, they are still staying in Sanjiang Province on the fifteenth, and their subordinates have come back this time to give you the New Year's gift prepared for you by the Chai family and his wife," the strong man replied,
"Is it," King Liang's eyes suddenly lit up, "Where is the New Year's gift, show it to this king,"
And the strong man offered the bell ball,
King Liang grabbed it in his hand, shook it lightly a few times, and heard a crisp sound from the tinkling inside, the corners of his mouth involuntarily bent upward, and a faint blood color appeared on his pale face.
And just as he was shaking the bell ball, suddenly a few cat meows came, and the black cat heard the sound, and even took the initiative to find it here.
Meow meow,
When he found that the sound came from the bell ball in his hand, the black cat quickly stretched his neck, staring at the bell ball with both eyes and reluctant to move away for a moment.
When King Liang saw this, he proudly raised the bell ball high, and deliberately shook it several times before he proudly announced to it: "Look, this is the New Year's gift they gave me, especially for me, hum, I have you or not,"
