The two of them stood outside the house talking in the middle of summer, and they couldn't help but sweat profusely.

Runye wanted to find a clean place to talk, so she turned around and walked towards the gazebo in the backyard, with Zhu Hongyu following closely behind.

Zhu Hongyu beat a drum in her heart: If Runye is really the queen of the national teacher, then everything can be right.

When she said the national teacher, Runye would be extremely angry. When she opened the old box in the house, it contained the relics of the former national teacher.

Han Tongxuan, the master of Runye, the person who once rescued under the valley was Runye. And that day, Runye said that he had amnesia, which was also a lie.

The two of them walked to the pavilion one after the other, and it was cooler to sit here than to stand outside, and no one else disturbed them. After Runye entered the pavilion, he sat down, and Zhu Hongyu sat beside him.

"Okay, what are you going to tell me?"

Runye leaned on the railing behind the gazebo seats, and this sitting position made him feel very comfortable.

He recalled the twelve years he had spent here, and twelve years was the reincarnation of the earthly branches, so everything would change quickly at the moment of the twelfth year.

"On that day, I was rescued from the valley by Master, and I did lose my memory. Master carried me back to the temple and would go to the valley during the day to collect my father's and mother's belongings. By the way, give them a burial. When I woke up, I saw my father's tomb. ”

Runye sat in the pavilion and sighed, saying that it was his father, but he had no memory at all. He looked at the tombs of the two strangers, but in fact, there was no wave in his heart.

Forgetting, really, is a very scary thing.

"Zhu Hongyu, I really don't know what my father's identity is, what he has done, whether he is good or bad for me. I can only identify myself by relics. I've seen the contents of that box, but I didn't expect Master to hide the box in the lower courtyard of Sanguan Temple. ”

Zhu Hongyu's heart was astringent, and sure enough, she shouldn't doubt Runye.

So she said cautiously: "You and your master deduced that you are the son of the national teacher, and your master doesn't dare to let you admit this fact." ”

"Yes, you know. At that time, the national teacher fled from the government and the opposition and was furious, not to mention the son of the national teacher, even being a Taoist priest was a risky thing. Master and I were afraid that the village militia would break down the gate of Sanguan Temple and kill us. It was really dark during those days. ”

Only then did Zhu Hongyu realize that Runye didn't want to say it, but who knew what she wanted? A person who married the emperor's wife and deceived the emperor, can his son still be good?

"Lu Mingci told me that he wanted Ji Youling to go back and inherit the national teacher."

Runye smiled, and he laughed miserably. He has never had the luxury of being a national teacher or anything, he will not sit in this position if he doesn't have this ability, if he really covets the position of power, he may not even have his life.

But Zhu Hongyu knew that her question Runye had not yet been answered.

"Then you, are you the son of the national teacher?"

"There is no ironclad evidence. Both parents died, so I was left alone. The only person who rescued me has already flown away. So I'd rather be the son of a rich and noble family than get involved in government politics easily. ”

Zhu Hongyu knew that although Runye was thriving in Peach Blossom Village, it was actually difficult to convince the public in the government and the opposition.

His father was born in a rain of swords, so he could accompany him for decades.

Runye is different, he lives cleanly in Sanguan Temple, and strives to be an ordinary person.

Zhu Hongyu knew that she hoped that Run's night would be good, not that he would be in danger. Even if the national teacher can tilt the power of the government and the opposition, what can it do?

She really doesn't care!

"Runye, I will try my best to protect you in the future. Don't do this kind of thing, don't even think about it. ”

When Runye heard Zhu Hongyu's words, she felt very uncomfortable.

"It's just that I have wronged you, after I become a national teacher, not only can Ming Media marry you, but also bring you unprecedented glory and wealth. At that time, no one will dare to bully you, and you won't have to run around for my household registration. ”

Zhu Hongyu shook her head again and again, she came to this era to prove her worth. You can earn your own money, so why take shortcuts?

"Do you think I'm short of money? Of course, there is no shortage. What good will it do me to those things that are too extravagant? Okay, let's go to the doctor together, don't let the patients worry. ”

As Runye said, there are really things you don't need to know too much, which will add to your troubles.

It's okay to be suspicious before, but now that I know the secret of Runye, I have to hide this fact.

Outside the city, Xue Hu, the second leader of Black Wind Village, came to Yunmeng Town with more than a dozen of his men.

There was no one outside the urn, and there was no one inside. Xue Hu was a cautious man and sent one of his men to investigate.

The spies said there were people on the streets of the city, but there weren't many. There were no guards on the towers. Only then did Xue Hu put his mind at ease and took a dozen of his own people into Yunmeng Town.

According to Zhu Hongyu's arrangement, Lu Mingci arranged two lazy soldiers at the gate of the city.

Seeing that Xue Hu's group was fully equipped, he pretended not to mind, and waved his hand to let them in.

From Suzaku Street to Baihu Street, there are gradually more people on the way, doing business and reopening. Vermilion and Runye's treatment was effective, bringing Yunmeng Town, which used to look like a dead city, back to life.

However, just like the catkins in early spring, it is not as prosperous as before.

Walking to the county office, Lu Mingci was already standing at the door, and Wang Shiru and others also came out to greet him. Lu Mingci has always been not good at words, for fear that something will go wrong in the scheme, he still pretends to be speechless.

Wang Shiru is more or less an old fritter who has been in the county government for decades, and he knows what to say and what not to say.

"This is the person from the Black Wind Village, why didn't your leader come? And the brothers on the mountain did not come? ”

Xue Hu looked at the place in front of him, but it was nothing more than a dilapidated yamen.

"Who knows what tricks your yamen uses, otherwise how would you be a bandit."

Wang Shiru glanced at Lu Mingci embarrassedly, and was coughed back by Lu Mingci, which clearly showed that he did not take the imperial court officials in his eyes. It's too much of a nobody.

"Okay, Xue Yingying, please sit inside."

According to Zhu Hongyu's command, Lu Mingci looked for a target to attack and rebel among the people brought by Xue Hu.

After staring for a long time, I saw a lonely man. He followed at the back of the group, and this kind of person was generally the least popular in the group.

Another gesture, Lu Mingci asked the soldiers to carefully watch over this lone person, waiting for him to talk to him in detail.

Entering the yamen, Wang Shiru led several Yunmeng Town characters with heads and faces to serve Xue Hu.

Delicacies, silk and bamboo orchestras, and beauties accompany you. Compared with the treatment in the Black Wind Village, the beauties and delicacies in this village are definitely several levels better.

Xue Hu still looked invincible, and he believed that Yunmeng Town's envoy had deceived him. Yunmengzhen is not as pitiful as he said, if the eldest brother wants to do great justice, he will definitely not succeed. But this group of people is so polite, it can be seen that they still want Zhao'an.

During the feast, Xue Hu didn't notice that the person he had brought had been taken away, and this person was being persuaded by Lu Mingci in a dark corner......

Yunmeng Town County Ya, in the dark room behind the main hall. Xue Hu's little soldier Da Zhuang sat on a stool in the dark room.

It is said to be a dark room, but it is actually a "private room" for interrogating important people and prisoners, and the environment here is good, and it is a courtesy to some scholars.

"Your name is Da Zhuang, isn't it?"

A cold voice came from the door of the dark room, and Da Zhuang was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat and quickly stood up.

He was a farmer who came out of the field, because the government confiscated the land, and in order to avoid the epidemic, he was really forced to go up the mountain to become a thief. If it weren't for this epidemic, he would probably still be a tenant in the village!

Lu Mingci saw that this was a cowardly person, and he was very relieved that he was not wrong as a Jinyi Wei Qianhu.

"Official, official, I know it's wrong, I shouldn't be a thief. But there are old and young people in my family, and I can only come up with this stupid trick to make some money! Please, sir, spare me. ”

After hearing Lu Mingci's voice, Da Zhuang directly knelt on the ground in fright, crying wolf and howling, counting his crimes. Of course, the most of them are crying miserably, saying how difficult it is for them to live, and the tenants live pitifully.

Lu Mingci was almost tired of hearing it, so Da Zhuang stopped. finally said something that made Lu Mingci very pleased.

"Master Jun, I'm willing to do anything for you, please don't kill me, let me go home and farm......"

Hearing this, Lu Mingci sat in front of Da Zhuang with a relieved smile on his face. Da Zhuang hurriedly got up from the ground, and looked at Lu Mingci with tears in his eyes.

"It just so happened that there was a deal between us. Can we trust each other? I'll let you live, and you will do something for me. ”

Da Zhuang didn't even think about it, and now let him do anything, even if it was to die, he was willing to do it.

"My lord, you can do whatever I want!"

"It could kill you."

"My lord, it doesn't matter if I'm dead, please spare my child and old mother!"

Lu Mingci supported his body with his hands, and slowly approached Da Zhuang, he looked at the farmer in the field and once again confirmed his reliability as a person.

"Your child and mother, we've found out. You do things for us, and we give them money, which is enough money for them to live happily for the rest of their lives. Of course, if you mess it up with me, you're all going to die. ”

Da Zhuang was silent, he really didn't have the confidence he had just now.

"Can you tell me about something?"

"It's very simple, it's to report to Xue Bao in Heifeng Village, and then find a place to hide. If you hide well, you still have a way to live, and if you expose yourself and let people kill you, then we can't save you. ”

Da Zhuang wondered, what kind of letter could make the official on the other side so willing to spend money?

"What do you say is ...... letter?"

Lu Ming smiled lightly, brought roast chicken and wine to the guards, and put them on the table. Da Zhuang saw such a hearty diet for the first time, and he couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

"Listen, if the following things are wrong, your children and mother's lives will be lost!"

Lu Mingci threatened, without any mercy.
