Chapter 208: Admonishing the thief

There is no coercion and inducement, and some are just good words to persuade each other.

As soon as the two left, Bai Luomei quietly hid behind the door, carefully observing the two who left.

Inside the main house.

Cai Yongzhen was negotiating with Tian Feng, the head of the bandits, took out a stack of silver tickets, put them on the table, and gently patted Tian Feng's shoulder with a smile.

"Brother Tian Feng, this is your reward."

"I have added another 20% to the price we negotiated, and I hope you can return to Beijing with me tomorrow."

"Don't worry, as long as I Cai Yongzhen has a bite to eat, I will never let you starve!"

Looking at the stack of silver tickets on the table, Tian Feng hesitated.

I saw him raise his eyes slightly, looking up and down at the triumphant Cai Yongzhen, frowning slightly, and having mixed feelings in his heart.

Long.

Tian Feng's cold voice sounded, "Lord Cai, what are you going to do with Bai Gege?" ”

"She is the fourth master and the eighth master's person, these two princes do not deal with each other, and now she claims to be the eighth master's person and has gained your trust, do you really plan to bring her back to the capital and hand her over to your master?"

Hearing this, Cai Yongzhen smiled.

There was a hint of insidiousness in the cold laughter.

Cai Yongzhen crossed Erlang's legs, sat comfortably on the chair, and smiled slightly, "Do you really think that this official will believe her fools?" It doesn't matter to me whether she is the eighth master's person or not, all I want is the trust of the eighth master! ”

"In that case, you can leave her behind and return to Beijing alone."

Tian Feng didn't know why, this sentence suddenly popped up.

Suddenly, Cai Yongzhen's eyes sank, and he glanced at him, "What, do you want her to stay?" ”

"I went into the city today to see, since they came, Tianyuan Mansion has been thriving, showing peace and tranquility, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the road is not left behind, even those who are not well fed and clothed are also raised by the government."

"Just today, my mother told me that when Bai Gege heard that my son couldn't afford to study, she didn't hesitate to agree with the fourth master to build a school for us poor people, so that our children can study for free and gain fame."

Tian Feng paused, and when he looked at him again, there was a murderous aura in his eyes.

It seems that Cai Yongzhen is very dissatisfied with his words.

Tian Feng didn't pay attention to the warning in his eyes, and then said, "For so many years, you have blindly oppressed the people in Tianyuan Mansion, trying every means to make money, and didn't care about the lives of the people. ”

"Isn't that too ruthless?"

Suddenly.

Cai Yongzhen took the case, staring at him with a hideous face, gritting his teeth.

"Who taught you this!"

"This official is doing this so that I can have a Ming Jun and a virtuous Jun in the Qing Dynasty! The fourth master is just for show, for the sake of fame! He's putting on a show! ”

"Only the eighth master can rule the Qing Dynasty and create a peaceful and prosperous world for the people of the world!"

Such high-sounding words, I'm afraid that even he doesn't believe it.

What is for the people, and why are they not doing for themselves!

If it weren't for the intervention of the fourth master, he would still be the soil emperor of Tianyuan Mansion now!

Tian Feng was silent, got up slowly, and pocketed the silver ticket on the table, "Tomorrow, we will not go back to Beijing with you, after today, you and I will be strangers, and we have nothing to do with each other!" ”

"Tian Feng!"

"Don't forget, if it weren't for the official protecting you, you would have been beheaded!"

"And your father, why did he die, how did he leave you his last words before he died, and who let you see your father for the last time? You have remembered to this official, if you don't have this official, sooner or later you will be exterminated by the imperial court one day! ”

Cai Yongzhen gritted her teeth and scolded sharply.

One word at a time, generous and powerful.

Tian Feng glanced sideways slightly, and glanced at him, with a touch of inquiry and evil in his eyes, "The court is unfair and cruel to the virtuous, and God will punish it, as for you!" But it's also an ant, what qualifications do you have to teach me a lesson here! ”

Saying that, Tian Feng left without looking back.

Seeing him leave, Cai Yongzhen was indignant.

In his opinion, he is Tian Feng's savior, and he is secretly helping Tian Feng gradually grow up and become the current king of the mountain, Tian Feng should listen to him and work hard for him!

But Tian Feng had his own ideas and was unwilling to bow his head in front of him.

Slightly cold at night.

In the quiet Lijia Village, the silver-white moonlight sprinkled on the roof, faintly, revealing a bit of sadness.

Tian Feng returned to the room expressionlessly, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw the old mother coaxing her son to sleep.

When the old mother saw that his face was displeased, she poured him a bowl of tea with a smile and put it in his hand, "Feng'er, is there anything troublesome, talk to Weiniang." ”

"Mother, did I do something wrong?"

"From the beginning, I shouldn't have been against the court, I shouldn't have been the king of the mountain, and I shouldn't have been in cahoots with Cai Yongzhen!"

Tian Feng said, revealing a bitter smile on his face.

Since his father was cut down by the imperial court, he no longer trusts the imperial court, occupies the mountain as the king, and opposes the imperial court, and it has been five years now.

The old mother sighed for a long time, and comforted her bitterly, "No matter what you do, your mother will support you, and today, your mother will also lie for you, and bring Bai Gege here, and I feel very sorry for my mother." ”

"Originally, my mother hated the injustice of the court as much as you did, but since I saw with my mother's own eyes that the villagers in Tianyuan Mansion are living well, the old are supported, and the young are taught, I find that the current court is different."

"The imperial court sent the fourth master and Bai Gege to ask for their lives for the people, everything they did, the villagers didn't see it in their eyes, and which one didn't miss their great kindness?"

"Wei Niang knows that you helped Cai Yongzhen, on the one hand, to repay him for his kindness back then, and on the other hand, you also wanted to take advantage of this matter to make winter clothes for the people in the village before winter comes, so that they will not starve and freeze."

Listening to the old mother's words, Tian Feng sighed.

The person has been arrested, Cai Yongzhen is an official again, he is a thief, what can he do.

Tian Feng sneered, "Since ancient times, officials and officials have protected each other, even if the fourth master overthrows him this time, he will be able to use the power of the eighth prince to turn over again in the future!" ”

"Son, these are not things you can consider, you ask your conscience, is it really good for you to do this?" The old mother was bitter and persuasive.

In the past five years, the old mother has been by his side, taking care of his young son for him, and also dealing with some entanglements in the cottage for him.

But this time, he was confused.

That's right.

There was a sudden noise outside the door.

Tian Feng reacted subconsciously, following the prestige, and a deep voice suddenly sounded, "Who's outside?!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the door suddenly opened, and Bai Luomei stood outside coldly.

He was followed by two bandits.
