Chapter 127: Benefactor, I've Been Waiting for You for a Long Time
The light of day broke, and the first rays of sunlight shone onto the earth, crossing a layer of gentle gold.
The shops on the street opened one by one, and the entire Qiyuan County gradually became lively, and no one knew that there was a fight at the gate of Hanfu last night.
At noon, a group of troops entered Qiyuan, attracting the attention of the people in the city, the red-clothed woman led by him was particularly eye-catching, and there was a young Langjun who looked immature by his side, with red lips and white teeth, and was very delicate.
At the same time, a man dressed in the clothes of an inner servant came at a high speed, and also stopped outside the gate of the Han Mansion, holding the yellow holy decree in his hand, walked straight into the mansion, and said in a loud voice: "The holy decree has arrived-everyone in the Han Mansion will come and receive the decree quickly."
Soon Mrs. Han knelt on the ground with a group of slaves, followed by Xu Yunchen and others.
When the inner servant saw that the person had arrived, he shouted a loud order: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said, the criminal minister Han Zhi privately mined iron ore, deceived the superiors and subordinates, and conspired against the crime, and should be escorted back to Beijing to be executed in public, in order to set an example, and the female servants of the Han Mansion were exiled to Xicheng and never returned, so I admire this."
The chamberlain smiled slightly, "Mrs. Han, take the order." ”
Mrs. Han had a white face and was full of dead silence, "The sinner woman takes the order." ”
Only then did the chamberlain look at Xu Yunchen and smile eagerly, "Lord Xu, the emperor asked our family to bring you a message." ”
"The emperor said that he wants Lord Xu to collect the evidence of Han Zhi's crimes and send them back to the capital, and he hopes that you can return to Beijing as soon as possible, because the emperor wants to reward you for this incident, this is a great achievement."
The waiter looked happy, "Our family is here to congratulate Master Xu first." ”
Xu Yunchen returned a salute to the chamberlain, and then said slowly: "The emperor should not reward me, but Shen Shizi, this iron mine was also discovered by him, and Han Zhi's crime was also disclosed by him, I am just assisting on the side, this main merit makes Xu ashamed."
When the chamberlain heard this, he was directly shocked, "You, you said Shen Shizi?" He's alive? ”
Then he looked left and right, "What about the others?" ”
Xu Yunchen said lightly: "He left Qiyuan before dawn and went to Zhenyuan, he has other things to do."
The waiter groaned: "Then Lord Xu, do you want to go back with me?" After I have made the announcement, I will immediately return to Beijing to resume my life. ”
Xu Yunchen thought for a while and refused: "I also have some things to deal with, and I hope that my father-in-law will pay tribute to the emperor when he goes back, and my father-in-law will have a long journey all the way, so my father-in-law will buy some wine in Qiyuan and drink it."
After the words fell, Lin Liang quickly took a money bag and handed it to the chamberlain.
"Yo, that's embarrassing."
"This is what my father-in-law deserves."
When the waiter heard this, the smile on his face became brighter after taking the money bag, "Then our family will take the first step and leave." ”
"Father-in-law walks slowly."
After the people left, Xu Yunchen's smile gradually fell, his eyes skimmed to the defeated and desperate people in the Han Mansion, and with a wave of his hand, an official messenger pressed them up.
As for the Han family's property, the iron ore that has been sold for so long must be handed over, but this is not under Xu Yunchen's control.
When Chi Guanglei went to the iron mine, there were still sounds of cursing and crying inside, and it was not until his soldiers rushed in that the sound inside quieted down.
Chi Guanglei approached, and when he saw this tragic scene, Jian Jian was furious, "Come on, beat all these cronies of Han Zhi to death, and then rescue all the people below." ”
The people, who were still wailing, realized that they were saved when they heard Chi Guanglei's words, and everyone knelt on the ground, crying uncontrollably.
"Sir, save us, save us."
Chi Guanglei frowned, and said in a deep voice: "This general is here to rescue you by the emperor's order, everyone is safe."
Emperor?
The people were stunned for a moment before they thanked Dade and shouted, "The emperor is wise, long live the emperor!" ”
Seeing this, Chi Guanglei asked his soldiers to take this group of old, weak, sick and disabled people down the mountain in batches, and went to the cottage outside, where there were still some thin women with good looks.
He asked the officers and soldiers to record their names and addresses, and then asked his soldiers to escort the women home.
The money of the entire cottage was stolen, and this wooden village was ordered by Chi Guanglei to be burned down, and he only went down the mountain after seeing that things were almost in order.
As soon as she entered the Han Mansion, she saw her eldest daughter sitting in the first place eating apples like the master, and her youngest son stood behind her and obediently hammered her shoulder.
Chi Wu also saw Chi Guanglei, and after the two looked at each other wordlessly for two seconds, Chi Wu greeted vaguely, "Yo, Dad, are you back?" It's hard work, sit down. ”
Chi Wu symbolically pointed to the stool next to her, as if her greeting was only incidental, Chi Guanglei felt suffocated when he saw her appearance.
He snorted coldly and ignored her, Chi Guanglei didn't force it when she saw this, and sure enough, within three seconds, Chi Guanglei took the lead in breaking the silence, "Sister-in-law, did you see Shen Shizi when you came?" ”
Chi Wu's mouth chewing slowed down a bit, so, Shen Mingnan is here? So why didn't she meet her?
Chi Wu was a little puzzled, shook her head truthfully and said, "No, I only saw Xu Yunchen when I came."
Chi Guanglei was stunned for a moment, and continued: "What about Lord Xu now?"
Chi Wu suddenly heard this, tilted her head to look at Chi Xianyu, "Xiao Xian, go find out what Master Xu left behind." ”
When Chi Xianyu heard this, he took a burden from behind him, and the young man's voice was clear, "Dad, this is the evidence about Han Zhi left by Lord Xu, and he asked me to inform you, and then I will trouble you to escort Han Zhi back when I return to Beijing, and those mountain bandits and witnesses will be escorted back all the way." ”
"What about the others?"
"Lord Xu has returned to the town far away, saying that there is something to deal with, let's go back to Beijing first, and he and Shizi will go back later."
Chi Guanglei: "......"
He now understands a little, what Shen Mingnan meant by saying that he is not superfluous...... Co-authored him as a coolie?!
This was obviously their task, and it fell on him in the end, but both of them ran away, and Chi Guanglei was unhappy and responded with a stinky face.
On the contrary, Chi Wu was a little pity, she shook her head and sighed: "It's a pity, I didn't see him, I should have become more and more enlightened after a few years, right?"
“……”
Chi Guanglei coughed lightly, "After returning to Beijing, you give me ...... Converge a little, do you hear me? ”
Chi Wu pursed her lips slightly and snorted, "Got it." ”
Chi Guanglei was helpless, so he went to do the next thing with his forehead.
……
Luohua Village, an old house.
The sky slowly darkened, since Zhao Huiwei took them to eat hot pot, they talked all day long, there was no way, she had to buy the materials and make it in the old mansion herself.
And this hot pot has been eaten for several days in a row, so that Zhao Huiwei has no appetite when she sees the hot pot now, but the others still look unsatisfied.
After dinner, Zhao Huiwei said goodbye and went home, walking on the country road, the evening breeze blew slightly, and the dryness of the day basically dissipated.
When she walked to the door of her house, she found that the door seemed to have been opened, and she rushed in to see a faint candle flame burning in the house.
Then a man in Xuanyi who seemed to have just woken up walked out with loose clothes, and after he saw the person clearly, he smiled lazily:
"Benefactor, I've been waiting for you for a long time."
