Chapter 418: We Can Go

When he saw this rope, the man's last psychological defense line also completely collapsed, because this rope did not belong elsewhere, and it happened to be used to hang the jade pendant that was about to be lost.

"This king sent guards to search, in fact, there are still results, but they all obeyed my orders and must keep it secret first, and now this king wants you to take the initiative to take out the jade pendant."

"I, I didn't!" When the servant denied it again, he turned around and wanted to run.

Seeing that he was leaving, Chu Ruo glanced at him, and the guards around him pushed him to the ground and pulled him back.

"What are you running? Where are you going? Say, where is the jade pendant? ”

After seeing that he could no longer deny it, he could only open his mouth with trembling lips.

"This jade pendant is indeed taken below, but I am here to ......"

"It doesn't matter what you're for, but you take the jade pendant, this is stealing." Shen Bing interrupted him.

"The little one took the jade pendant just to exchange it for some silver to see my mother." The servant said with tears in his voice.

It turned out that her mother was seriously ill and sent him a letter, which also said that the silver was not enough, but he was just a servant, and there was no extra silver at all.

"Where is the jade pendant now?" Shen Bing asked.

"I've been hiding it for the time being, and I originally wanted to go straight to the pawnshop when I left the villa in two days." The man lowered his voice and lowered his head as he spoke.

After Chu Ruoyu asked the address in the servant's mouth, he asked the guards to take the jade pendant back and hand it over to the owner of Zhao Zhuang.

"Master Zhao, the matter has been settled, we can go." Shen Bing said a little impatiently.

They had been here for less than half a day, and the matter had already been settled, and they knew it would be so smooth, and they shouldn't have brought so many things here in the first place.

"Don't be in a hurry to leave, since you have found the heirloom below, then I must also set up a banquet to entertain you." Lord Zhao immediately stopped in front of the two and prevented them from leaving.

Seeing that he insisted on doing so, Shen Bing could only nod in compromise.

"Then bother." Compared with Shen Bing's dejected head, Chu Ruoyan was elated. He wished that Master Zhao Zhuang would say this, so that they would have a reason to stay here.

He agreed to come here because this villa was far away from the capital, and if he went back now, then there would be no point in coming out this time.

"I don't know what Master Zhao plans to do with him?" When several people were about to leave the main hall, Shen Bing asked Master Zhao.

"Take him down first, lock him up, and then deal with him again."

After solving this matter, several people came to the room specially prepared by Zhao Zhuang, and the banquet had been set up on the table.

"King Yan, Miss Shen, since you have come to my villa and the matter has been resolved, please enjoy it!"

After Zhao Zhuang finished speaking, he poured wine for the two of them, Shen Bing and Chu Ruoyao couldn't refuse, so they could only accept it with a smile, and after a few rounds of wine, Zhao Zhuang Zhuang's words began to increase.

"His Royal Highness King Yan, it's not me who is talking big, there is no one who can match this villa within a radius of ten miles."

Zhao Zhuang was a little drunk, and began to dance in front of Chu Ruoyao, talking about his villa, Shen Bing next to him almost laughed out loud when he looked at Zhao Zhuang Zhuang's posture several times.

"King Yan and Miss Shen can stay in my mountain villa for a few more days, there is not only a horse farm here, but you can also go to archery, and the surrounding scenery is very beautiful, which will never be seen in the capital."

"Miss Shen, since you're here, we might as well rest for a few days."

Chu Ruoyan also had this idea, he couldn't wait to stay with Shen Bing for a while longer, so he naturally agreed to Master Zhao's invitation. By the time Shen Bing reacted, there was no chance to refuse.

"Okay."

The feast lasted until the evening, when everyone was a little drunk and then dispersed.

Shen Bing and Chu Ruoyao respectively returned to the room prepared for them by the owner of Zhao Zhuang to rest.

Shen Bing took out all the things he had brought in the room, sat down at the table and began to sigh.

"Why is Miss Shen sighing?" The little maid who was waiting for Shen Bing asked.

"It's nothing, it's just a little tired." Shen Bing shook her head, she naturally couldn't tell the little maid in this villa that she didn't want to stay here at all, wouldn't it be too bad to give face to Lord Zhao.

Shen Bing lay on the bed and fell asleep deeply, but she didn't expect this villa to make her very relaxed, and she didn't get up until three o'clock in the morning.

By the time she opened her eyes, the sun was already high. When she heard a movement in the house, the little maid came in to serve her.

"Miss Shen, His Royal Highness King Yan and Lord Zhao Zhuang sent someone to say, if the girl wakes up, take the girl to the garden to find them, and now they are drinking tea there."

Drink tea? After hearing the little maid say this, Shen Bing raised his eyebrows, these two people were really leisurely, and they actually tasted tea in the villa, not caring about the things in the capital at all.

"Okay, I see, I'll go over when I'm done."

Shen Bing nodded, and after changing his clothes, he was led by the little maid to the garden. As soon as she entered the garden gate, she met Chu Ruoyao's eyes.

After seeing Shen Bing coming, Chu Ruoyan immediately stood up and motioned for her to come to his side, Shen Bing had no choice but to walk over.

And the owner of Zhao Zhuang next to him looked at these two people with a deep gaze, in his opinion, the relationship between King Yan and Miss Shen is definitely not simple, as long as he can make Miss Shen happy, then King Yan's favorability towards him will also increase greatly.

"Miss Shen, this is the tea we grow ourselves in the villa, if the girl likes it, you can bring some back."

After Shen Bing came to them, the owner of Zhao Zhuang immediately began to be courteous, and picked up a cup of tea and handed it to her for her to taste.

After drinking this cup of tea, Shen Bing really felt that there were many differences from other teas, so he put away the things that Zhao Zhuang gave her.

After seeing that the things he gave out were accepted, the owner of Zhao Zhuang was very proud, and the same tea was also given to Chu Ruoyi.

As soon as a few people sat down, and before they could say a few words, a servant in the villa hurriedly found the owner of Zhao Zhuang.

"Owner, owner, something is wrong, there are a lot of people outside." The servant panted and said to Lord Zhao.

Lord Zhao Zhuang was chatting happily with Chu Ruoyan and the others, and he was a little impatient when he heard the servant's voice: "Say, what's going on?" He asked, frowning.

"Many people came from outside, saying they were coming to report to the officials."

"Reporter? The official asked them to go to the official mansion, and what official did they report to my villa? ”

"But......" the servant shook his head a little embarrassed, "I don't know where the news came from, saying that King Yan is in this villa today, so everyone has gathered here." ”

"And the people gathered here are all nearby villagers, if they are allowed to go to the capital to report to the official, the journey is too far, and many people will forget it."

"His Royal Highness King Yan," after hearing the servant's words, Lord Zhao Zhuang was a little flustered, "Please Your Highness wait, and deal with these things here." ”

After Lord Zhao finished explaining to Chu Ruoyao, he immediately ran to the door with the servants, leaving only Chu Ruoyao and Shen Bing in the house.

"Why did you agree to stay here?" When no one was around, Shen Bing finally asked this sentence.

Chu Ruoyan smiled disapprehantly: "Just like Lord Zhao said, I came here just to relax." ”

"Then it's enough to relax for a few hours, when will I return to the capital, there are still a lot of dossiers waiting to be done!"

"What's the hurry to go back to the capital? There are Sun Bin and Wei Mingjie and others in Dali Temple, and these things are not difficult for them. Why don't you worry about this king when you have time to worry about them? Why not worry about worrying about things here? ”

"You're right in front of me, and we're in the middle of this lodge, so there's nothing to worry about." Shen Bing choked Chu Ruoyao's words back.

When the two of them were arguing in the house, the owner of Zhao Zhuang was hurrying to the gate of the villa, asking the servants about the specific situation as he walked.

"When did they come over?"

"The slave didn't know, but when I opened the gate of the villa today, I found that there were already people lined up outside, and I found the owner of the village in desperation."

The servant scratched his head in embarrassment, he had never seen such a scene in all his years in this cottage.

After hearing his description, the owner of Zhao Zhuang became even more nervous, and he couldn't help but speed up his pace to the gate of the villa, and found that the matter was not as exaggerated as the servant said.

"Didn't you say that the black oppresses a crowd?" Lord Zhao Zhuang pointed at the people here and glanced at it, "Now, what are these doing now!" Lord Zhao asked, pointing to several ragged servants outside the villa.

"This ......," the servant was a little embarrassed, "and the little one was also nervous for a moment, so he said that." ”

Listening to the servant's words, Lord Zhao Zhuang was angry, if it weren't for this incident, he would still be sitting with Chu Ruoyan now, getting closer, so I am afraid that his previous efforts would be in vain.

"Nervous for a while? You're really going to make excuses for yourself. After listening to the servant's words, Master Zhao patted him on the shoulder as a punishment.

He looked at the people at the door, then turned around and wanted to leave.

"Master Zhao, what should they do?" The servant asked, a little puzzled. If they just leave, they can't make a decision.

"Give each of them some broken silver, let them fly away, and don't reveal what is going on here, otherwise they will be hunted down to the ends of the earth."

"Isn't the hunt too serious?" Some servants hesitated after listening to Lord Zhao's words.
