Chapter 116: Coup d'état
Because he received the money, of course, he knew everything and told everything he knew.
"I heard that there was a coup d'état in the capital, what happened to those people in the royal family, how can we ordinary people know, you know that the taxes have increased, and there has been a locust disaster, and those refugees can't live anymore, so they began to flee around you, we are far away, and we are relatively rich, although the taxes have been increased, but I am just a shopkeeper."
Chu Xiaoxiang probably understood what was going on, it must be that the royal family was not very stable, otherwise there would be no such situation and no one would care, it seems that they are not coming now, because if they enter the capital at this time, it is very likely that they will be implicated.
"It seems that we have to stay here for a while longer, after all, the capital is not very stable during this time, if we pass at this time, it is inevitable that more things will happen, in case we are implicated, it will be difficult for us to get out at that time, not to mention that there is a coup d'état in the capital, it will definitely be martial law."
Helian Chen also agreed with his statement very much, nodded, and both of them saw a glimmer of light in each other's eyes, obviously thinking that this matter should be considered in the long run, otherwise none of them would be able to get any benefit at that time, and it was not long since the last Four Nations Poetry Meeting, and the best way at this time was to stand still.
Because there were a lot of refugees outside, Chu Xiaoxiang stayed in the station for two or three days and didn't go out, on the one hand, they felt a little uncomfortable seeing that scene, and on the other hand, they were afraid of danger.
However, it has become more and more peaceful outside, because there are more and more refugees gathered here, resulting in these refugees forming a small force and starting to rob nearby, and many rich businessmen have been robbed, but they are afraid that they will not be able to guarantee their safety if they stay here.
When Chu Xiaoxiang was resting that night, he heard the sound of slamming the door outside, accompanied by a burst of crying, and when Chu Xiaoxiang put on his clothes, he found that Helian Chen had already gotten up and stood in the corridor, with a very serious expression on his face.
"Why did you get out?"
"I just want to see what's going on, it sounds like chaos outside, what the hell?"
"Someone has taken a fancy to this post station and wants to come in and rob it."
Although I had long expected this situation to happen, but I didn't expect this to happen so quickly, they only lived here for three or four days, and these refugees have been cornered one by one and began to rob the post station.
Helian Chen didn't go anywhere else, just stood in front of him and protected him tightly, the young man adopted by Chu Xiaoxiang was looking at those people outside with a fierce face at this time, it seemed that as long as someone dared to come up, he would do it immediately, Helian Chen touched his head and asked him to calm down, after this period of getting along, the young man was very dependent on Chu Xiaoxiang, only Chu Xiaoxiang could get close, and no one else could.
Because it was inconvenient to call him, Chu Xiaoxiang named him Que, which was also done to make it easier to get along.
"Good."
The sound outside became more and more chaotic, and as the commotion outside became louder and louder, Chu Xiaoxiang obviously felt a little impatient, at this time, the group of refugees happened to break in and grabbed Chu Xiaoxiang and their side, and when they saw the lord, their eyes couldn't help but light up, and the person in the lead was dressed quite well.
"There are still a bunch of fish that have slipped through the net, I didn't expect there to be a woman here, snatch this woman back, we will have to play in the future."
Chu Xiaoxiang has no sympathy for these people at all, seeing that they have blood on their hands, I am afraid that they have killed a lot of innocent people, if they are just for talent, forget it, now they are thinking about rebellion, their minds have already begun to be impure when they rebelled, and at this time, they are even thinking about robbing women to go back and enjoy.
Helian Chen kicked the people who rushed forward directly to the bottom of the building, these people who came up were not Helian Chen's opponents at all, they were directly beaten and had no power to fight back, and soon lay on the ground and wailed, there was such a big movement on their side, and there was still no sound from the official side, obviously, they just didn't plan to care about this matter.
"It seems that it is not necessarily safe for us not to enter the capital now, it is better to enter the casino earlier, and we can still get certain drawbacks, although we may be implicated, but we are not from the Three Kingdoms, presumably those people dare not attack us at all, maybe they will borrow our hands."
Chu Xiaoxiang thought about it for a while, and felt that what Helian Chen said made sense, and she was a little moved for a while, but she didn't say anything, she had to think about this matter carefully, and then talk about it after thinking about it clearly.
However, there was obviously no way to continue to stay on the side of the post station, and it was not until the next morning that the official government sent over, and the people wearing official uniforms and hats came over tremblingly, looked around, and then began to clean up these people, obviously not planning to care about these things, and when they entered the counter-war, they found that there were still a few living mouths, and they immediately put up their official authority in front of Chu Xiaoxiang.
"You should have been here last night, what happened is not yet to be explained, a few of you can be intact, is it colluded with those refugees, it is better to be honest and tell the truth, otherwise don't blame the official for being polite."
When Chu Xiaoxiang heard this, he couldn't help frowning, with a touch of disgust on his face, feeling that this official was really a coward, and now he couldn't catch those leaders, so he wanted to use them as scapegoats.
The Lord directly brought out the leader from last night and threw it in front of the officials.
"You're looking for this person, this is the one who attacked the post last night, and I've already taken it for someone."
The officials wanted to say something, Helian Chen directly stated that he was from the rivers and lakes, and a few people were just passing by here to look for relatives, and when they heard that it was the officials from the rivers and lakes who immediately instigated them, they didn't dare to speak, and they didn't dare to continue to investigate or anything, so they had to let them go in person.
After all, the people of the rivers and lakes are elusive, and who knows what they will do.
After a few people got on the road, they drove a distance, and saw a horse from a distance, and now they were running over quickly, Chu Xiaoxiang looked over carefully, and found that it was Ye Yuntian, who had not been seen for a long time, with a puzzled expression on his face.
"With your hurried expression, could it be that you are preparing to flee for your life, and the capital is so unsafe?"
"Ahem!"
As soon as Ye Yuntian saw Chu Xiaoxiang, he instantly entered the carriage, and then took a sip of the tea on the table, with a hint of entanglement on his face.
"Anyway, the capital is very chaotic now, I don't plan to go over again, I advise you not to go over, so as not to get involved in it at the time, or we will come back again when we find a time."
Chu Xiaoxiang felt that Ye Yuntian's attitude was a little strange, so she didn't understand it for a while, but she didn't say anything, but her expression was a little serious.
"In this case, we have to go, because so many refugees have fled, I am afraid that it will put pressure on other countries, and it is such a coincidence that we have come here, and there has been a coup d'état in the three countries."
In fact, there is another important reason, Chu Xiaoxiang did not say that those who were looking at Chu Xiaoxiangjiao in their country were sent by the people of the Three Kingdoms, otherwise it would be a little unclear, but the Three Kingdoms are also in chaos now, could it be that this person behind the scenes wants to make all the four countries chaotic, so he doesn't know whether he should continue to doubt the Three Kingdoms?
While he was talking, there was the sound of horses' hooves outside, and there seemed to be a lot of people and horses, led by a young general, with a hurried face, and now he ran over here, and when he stopped the carriage, he looked at Helian Chen and a few people.
"Stop, I have something to ask you."
Helian Chen stopped and looked at him with a hint of coldness, and the other party couldn't help but shiver, but he quickly lifted his spirits.
"Have you ever seen a man dressed in black, riding a horse, coming quickly this way?"
As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper from his hand, and saw a portrait painted on it, Helian Chen recognized it at a glance, the portrait was Ye Yuntian, he couldn't help but stir his brows, and didn't speak for a while, Chu Xiaoxiang opened the curtain first at this time, and also saw the situation outside, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.
"The person you drew is a little familiar, as if I've seen it."
"Tell me where this person is?"
Chu Xiaoxiang didn't answer him this question, in fact, he had already recognized it, but he was curious about what was going on in his heart.
"Is this man a fugitive?"
"Don't ask if you shouldn't ask, tell me where you see this person go?"
"I saw him just now, and he seems to have gone into that mountain forest."
After the general heard this, he hurriedly led people to chase after him, and only after the people were far away did Chu Xiaoxiangjiao return to his carriage, and looked at Ye Yuntian's eyes with a hint of inquiry.
"Shouldn't you explain to me what the hell is going on? I haven't seen you for a while, how can you become a fugitive, and you are being chased by so many people, you are the pavilion master of Tianji Pavilion, do you still need to be afraid of these people? ”
"I ......"
Ye Yuntian opened his mouth, as if he didn't know how to explain this matter, and the expression on his face was unusually tangled.
"It's a long story, otherwise he'll have time to talk about it later."
It stands to reason that he is the pavilion master of Tianji Pavilion, and he is not afraid of these people in the court at all, if it is really because of murder and arson, it is impossible to find him alone. After thinking about it, Chu Xiaoxiang was not polite to him, and the corners of his mouth slowly hooked.
"I don't think those people have gone far yet, or I call them back and tell them that I found you?"
