Chen Yuan was so anxious that his palms were sweating, the scorching sun on his head was scorching, and his heart seemed to be frying with boiling oil, which was even more difficult than the scorching sun.

Jin Zhong and the handlebar were already frightened and stupid, they were deeply enslaved, they did not dare to resist, closed their eyes and waited for death.

Escape, how to escape? On the opposite side rode a fierce horse, with two legs, the left side was earth, and the right side was field, and there was no place to hide it.

Do you tell them out loud that I am crossing and cannot kill me? Or wait until I record the crossing before I die, leave evidence, and tell future generations that it is possible to cross by death?

What a mess.

Beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down Chen Yuan's forehead one by one......

Between the lightning and flint, Chen Yuan glimpsed that the car was still stable, and there was no panic in the car. Behind the car, there were several palace maids and knights in brocade clothes, as if they were used to seeing such an emergency scene, and they didn't even look at them more.

"Wait, I have something to say." Chen Yuan shouted loudly.

"Neigh" the knight reined in his horse, and the horse neighed.

The knife that swung at them was unusually cold in the scorching sun.

Chen Yuan hurriedly said: "The person in the car is suffering from a deep disease, I don't regret my life, don't disturb the nobles in the car." ”

The "Zizi" knife slashed past Chen Yuan's ear, Chen Yuan's head turned black, in his previous life, where had he encountered such danger.

A few hairs fell, and Chen Yuan's face turned pale, and he gasped for breath.

His words moved the knight, who deflected the edge of the knife and did not kill him. Signaled to the left and right, let them watch Chen Yuan and them, and turned around towards the carriage by himself.

"Squeak." The car finally came to a slow stop.

"What's going on?" The man in the car spoke up. The voice is hoarse and weak.

"Lord Qiyu, it's a few Tianshe's cars that broke down, blocking the way." The knight replied.

Chen Yuan was shocked, but fortunately, in his previous life, because of his work, he often encountered unexpected situations. Knowing that he was not out of danger yet, he heard that the person in the car was the county lord, and hurriedly said: "We should be guilty of capital offense if we offend the prestige of the county lord, but God has the virtue of a good life, and the county lord Bodhisattva has a heart, begging forgiveness for our offense." ”

The car stopped ten meters away from Chen Yuan at this time, and the deep voice that almost killed Chen Yuan said, "You know medical skills?" ”

Chen Yuan shook his head.

"Then how did you know that the county lord was suffering from a scab?"

"Back to my lord, Xiaomin guessed."

The knight is in the eye.

"According to Xiaomin's observation, the car was moving extremely slowly, and the people outside the car were safe, and they occasionally observed the driving of the car, for fear of startling the people in the car."

"In this way, there are only three kinds of people who can cause this: first, the old man who has difficulty moving, second, the pregnant woman who is expecting to give birth, and third, the patient who is suffering from scabies."

With a sparse sound, the person in the car lifted the curtain and leaked half of his body.

Chen Yuan looked at her, she looked like she was eleven or twelve years old, her face was sallow, her eyes were deep-set, her description was withered, and her clothes looked very wide.

Terminally ill and dying soon, Chen Yuan sighed slightly in his heart.

"Ahem." The little county lord coughed, and the palace maid behind immediately came to help her wipe it.

The little county lord looked at Chen Yuan and said weakly, "How can you tell that I am not an old man?" ”

Chen Yuan bowed his head and said: "Today, long live is the most thousand, and the dragon walks in a tiger's step, so I am sure that it is not an old man." Zhu Yuanzhang of the Zhu family died at the age of seventy-one, and before his death, his eldest son Zhu Biao, second son Zhu Zhang, and third son Zhu Yu died successively. It is precisely because of this that Zhu Di, the fourth son, became the most prestigious person among Zhu Yuanzhang's sons, and when Jianwen cut the domain, everyone was also waiting for Zhu Di's reaction. I don't say much about these words, in short, in the sixteenth year of Yongle, Zhu Di is fifty-nine years old, in good health, and can still go on an expedition to Mongolia, the person in the car cannot be him. The others are young and prosperous, and as for the expectant mothers, what to do in this wilderness.

The little county lord glanced at Chen Yuan more, and said to the knight, "Don't make trouble for your father. Then he was helped into the car by the palace maid, leaving a few coughs.

When the knight received the order, he raised his hand, and immediately several men dismounted, carried the ox cart to the side of the road, and cleared the barricades.

Jingle the bells, and the carriage slowly starts and heads towards the city.

"Oh my God." For the rest of his life after the catastrophe, the handlebar and Jin Zhong wiped their sweat and panted.

This is a feudal society with a strict hierarchy, and it is easier for them, the bottom, to offend the royal family, and to kill them than to crush an ant.

The ox cart was no longer to sit, and Chen Yuan was reluctant to sit anymore, so it was only an hour's walk from home, and Chen Yuan and Jin Zhong walked.

Zhangzhuang, the place name derived from the surname, because most of the people in the village have the surname Zhang. Many people in the Zhang family are officials in the court, and there are people in the court who are easy to do, so the construction of the village is relatively perfect, the roads are spacious, the water conservancy is convenient, it is June, and the people are busy in the boxy rice fields from time to time.

This was in the Ming Dynasty, there were no pesticides, and the rice planted was generally weeded twice. The breeze blew, wafting the fresh scent of rice, making them forget the unpleasantness just now.

Chen Yuan and Jin Zhong walked under a large banyan tree, which was as thick as three people, and its branches and leaves were luxuriant, like holding up a big umbrella in the air, giving passers-by a rest and coolness.

Under the tree, there are a few bluestone slabs, and there is a puddle of clear water, gurgling upwards.

Passers-by who were thirsty squatted down and bowed twice to drink.

Chen Yuan drank a few sips, clear and sweet, he used to drink bucket drinking water, how could this pollution-free mountain spring water be sweet.

Looking under the banyan tree, the village is just opposite.

After resting for a while, I followed the road and walked into the village.

There are a lot of rights and wrongs in the village, and the surname Zhang is a big surname, and there is power in the court, so he naturally occupies the best land, and even lives together. They set up private schools for children surnamed Zhang to go to school, and if they have other surnames, if they are related to their relatives, they can also do it. As for Chen Yuan's foreign surname, he basically doesn't accept it.

So according to Jin Zhong, Chen Yuan was a relative of his wife who asked him to go to Chongwen College in Jiangning County. As for why he is not in the village, the Zhang family rejects foreign surnames, his wife is arrogant, and he doesn't want to be angry with them.

As they spoke, they rounded the path and entered a private house. The private house is on one side, and the distance from Zhang's house is more than ten meters. Old wooden stakes were skewed in a circle, and a pomelo tree at the door was covered with egg-sized grapefruits.

"Wang, Wang, Wang."

"Bang bang."

Chen Yuan hesitated, not knowing how to meet this "Chen Yuan's mother." He stared blankly at the old wooden house.

Just listen to the sound of dogs barking and bumping into things.

"You stupid lazy thing, usually for you to eat, you don't even know how to watch the door, you come to steal eggs, today the old lady slaughtered your stew."

"Wangwang." The dog jumped out of the firewood house, strung past Chen Yuan, and strung into the field in three steps and two steps.

"Little brute, can't you hide from the unfed?" Then, the woman was holding a kitchen knife and viciously chased her out of the firewood room.

Because of her perennial farming, the woman was not tall, in her thirties, and her forehead was full of wrinkles.

She chased out viciously, her eyes widened, her waist crossed with one hand, she scolded, and the kitchen knife in her hand was thrown over at any time.

Chen Yuan felt embarrassed inexplicably, sweating on his forehead, and looked at Jin Zhong with his eyes: This is Chen Yuan's wife?
