Chapter 149: Ming Xiu's Tragic Life

"Can you find a way to get us out?"

Yun Fei was surprised.

After he saw Jiang Kuo and Su Chen'an's people, he always wanted to find a way out for Shu Lixiao and Xi Qingyan, but unfortunately he never achieved his wish.

Now I didn't expect that little Ming Xiu would say that there was a way to save them from escaping, it was really incredible!

"I can get you out, and in such a time of danger, the grass people will never say anything."

Ming Xiu looked at them seriously and promised.

"Okay, Yunfei, I believe in Ming Xiu, let's go with him!"

Xi Qingyan took the lead in expressing his position.

Nowadays, they don't have a second way to choose, and besides, Ming Xiu is a person to be trusted.

Therefore, Xi Qingyan was willing to hand over her and Su Lixiao's lives to Ming Xiu.

"Thank you for your trust."

Ming Xiu looked at Xi Qingyan deeply.

He was just a grass farmer at the moment, and he knew that if he proposed to take him out of the sky, he would most likely not be trusted by them.

It's just that Ming Xiu didn't expect that Xi Qingyan was willing to believe him.

It feels good to be trusted.

Ming Xiu sorted out his thoughts, and then said bluntly to Yun Fei.

"In this deep mountain, in fact, I am the only one, I have checked all over the mountain, this place is too remote, and there are not many wild beasts living in it, so even if the people of the five princes bring fire to the mountain, it will not bring much loss."

"If this mountain is so barren, why did you choose this place to hide?"

Even if a person does not choose a place to live, he will find a suitable place to live as much as possible within his ability.

Xi Qingyan couldn't understand that Ming Xiu had found such a barren mountain forest as his refuge.

"This matter is a long story, and the culprit who caused me to be displaced here is the group of people who besieged and suppressed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at the foot of the mountain."

Ming Xiu smiled bitterly and spoke.

"Are you saying that the reason why you live in this mountain forest is also because of the ghosts?"

Su Lixiao's brows furrowed.

He didn't expect that in this deep mountain and old forest, he would still meet a character who had a relationship with Su Chen'an.

"Su Chen'an has never had any relationship with Lixian, the only time he has been to Lixian was five years ago, my father asked Shuchen'an to come to Lixian as the chief examiner, could it be that you are the Liangzi who formed at that time?"

Su Lixiao searched in his mind for the connection between Su Chen'an and Lixian.

Because Su Chen'an has not been treated well by his father, he has not been able to make achievements in the court for so many years.

But after all, Su Chen'an is a child of the royal family, and even if his father doesn't want to see Su Chen'an, he will throw some small things to Su Chen'an for him to handle.

Su Lixiao remembers that one of them is related to Su Chen'an.

"Back to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, I met the Fifth Prince in the scientific examination hall five years ago, and he had a feud with me."

Ming Xiu saw Su Lixiao mention this, and the corners of his mouth smiled bitterly.

He recounted the past as he left the trail with them down another trail.

"Five years ago, I was still a child, but because my family was poor, in order to make up enough money to enter the examination room, I sold my paintings and calligraphy in the street market of Lixian County."

"It happened to be the spring day in our county, and there were many people coming and going in the market, so I chose to make some guessing puzzles in order to attract more people."

"His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince visited me on the same day, and he walked up to my booth on the spring day, interested in the guessing puzzles I came up with, so he stopped and stopped."

When Ming Xiu thought of the incident five years ago, he still remembered every word.

If it were possible, he would have wished he hadn't seen him five years ago.

But there is no regret medicine in this world at all, even if he is unwilling, he still collides with Su Chen'an.

"Could it be that the Fifth Prince lifted your stall that day

?」

Yunfei walked on the mountain road with his dream on his back, raising his eyes and asking curiously.

"If I just opened the stall, I wouldn't have hid in the mountains."

Ming Xiu said with emotion.

"On that day, when the Fifth Prince saw the puzzle in front of my stall, he wanted to show his talent in front of a woman, so he wrote his own puzzle behind each puzzle."

"It's just that there are more than ten puzzles, and the five princes have only solved half of them correctly."

"I didn't know his identity at the time, so I corrected the puzzles he guessed wrong, thinking that my actions annoyed him and made him lose face in front of the woman he liked, so I was hated like this."

Ming Xiu said with a bitter smile helplessly.

"If I had converged three points and didn't correct the Five Princes, maybe everything wouldn't be the way it is today."

"That's not right."

Su Lixiao retorted the exit.

"It's Su Chen'an's fault, why did you come out to cover it up for him? He's a straw bag who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do it, and he can't even solve the puzzle you came up with, and it's wrong for such a character to be the imperial examination examiner in Lixian County."

A straw bale was released to be an examiner of the imperial examination, how embarrassing it sounded about this matter.

It's still the royal ones who lost.

"Su Chen'an has always felt that he was not treated by my father because Concubine Jiang was not favored, and in fact, he was a complete straw bag since he was a child."

Dreaming of leaving the sky.

"When he was a child, Su Chen's work in the study room was this virtue, his homework with his master was so poor, but he was jealous when his father praised others, really speaking, Su Yiting worked harder than Shu Chen'an in his homework."

Su Chen'an always felt that others were sorry for him.

But in fact, the people he was jealous of, none of them were better than him, he just couldn't accept that others were better than him.

It's just a complete piece of rubbish.

"Did he embarrass you in the imperial examination room?"

After Shu Lixiao woke up, he had read the books in Ming Xiu's house, and coupled with the experience that Ming Xiu had said, he already understood what Ming Xiu had experienced.

"According to Su Chen'an's small-bellied chicken intestines, he can't just stop in front of the stall once."

When Ming Xiu heard this, he lowered his head and smiled.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really knows His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince very well."

"My stall was directly demolished by the people of the Five Princes that day, and I didn't save enough money to enter the examination room, and in the end, it was my parents who sold the old cattle in the family and sent me to the examination room in Lixian."

Thinking of that period of time, Ming Xiu's eyes changed.

"But as soon as the fifth prince as the chief examiner saw me, he directly suspected me of cheating, so he asked the other officials in the examination room in charge of checking the candidates to disassemble the things I brought one by one, and he didn't let go of the few nests that my mother made for me."

"My clothes, pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and nest head were all torn down by them, but they didn't find the slightest trace of cheating in them, and they could only let me into the examination room in the end."

"I was hungry in the examination room, and I handed in the answer sheet with a broken pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, but when the final list was released, my name was not on the list at all."

"I thought I was inferior to others, but I had seen the first place in the exam, he was a complete straw bale, but he was the nephew of the county magistrate of Lixian, and I knew what was going on at that time......

The official level crushed people to death.

Ming Xiu knew that he couldn't resist the group of people behind him.

"He only ruined your path to the imperial examination? I'm afraid it's more than that, right? At the palace banquet, Su Chen'an spilled the wine on his clothes because of a little palace maid, and a few days later, the body of the little palace maid was salvaged in the well, how could he allow you to live in this world?"

Although Su Chen'an has always pretended to be indifferent to fame and fortune, everyone actually knows that he is not indifferent to fame and fortune at all.

It's just that he has always been stupid, from childhood to adulthood.

Because of him

is stupid and bad enough, so whether it is a dream away from the sky, or a dream of Yiting, he has never put the dust in his eyes.

"Yes, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is right, but His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince didn't let me go so easily."

Ming Xiu said with a wry smile.

"My parents fell ill because of the huge blow I failed in the imperial examination, and the second elder both died shortly after that."

"The county magistrate of Lixian County knew that the five princes didn't like me, so he deliberately suppressed me in the following scientific expeditions, not only that, but they also found someone to destroy my home, and I was overwhelmed by them, so I moved out of the place where I used to live and hid in the mountains......

"As for the mountain road we are walking now, it is also what I accidentally discovered when I was bored in the mountain, this mountain was originally a gathering place for mountain bandits, and I think that those mountain bandits dug such a hidden sheep intestine path in order to leave a back road for themselves before they were exterminated."

Ming Xiu told him about the past that happened to him one by one.

He had been in the mountains for too long, and now a few people listened to him talk about that past, which was not a bad thing for him.

"Ming Xiu ......"

Xi Qingyan didn't expect Ming Xiu to go through so many things.

He had lived too lonely in this life.

"If it weren't for the fact that you met the sibling brother of this temple in this life, you would never have fallen to this point today, you now know who I am, do you regret saving me, the royal brother who has been in the dust?"

Su Lixiao looked at Ming Xiu in front of him and asked.

A person has been harmed to this point by Su Chen'an, and it is reasonable for him to hate the people of the royal family to the core.

"No regrets!"

Ming Xiu raised his eyes and spoke resolutely.

"The five princes are the five princes, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, although I hate the five princes to the core, but I will not take this anger out on everyone in the royal family."

"Moreover, I know that if there is really someone who can save the people and prevent them from falling into the hands of Shuchen'an, that person can only be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"I learned today that you are His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and I am even more determined to save you."

"I'm not saving His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for myself, I'm saving His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for the sake of this family and country, for the sake of all the people, if the emperor's throne really falls into the hands of narrow-minded people like the Five Princes, the country is likely to go to a state of no return."

Ming Xiu's tone was firm, and he did not shy away from it.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, there is an exit ahead, I hope you can avoid this catastrophe safe and sound, and live well for the people of the world."

Ming Xiu brought people out of the deep mountains, and then looked deeply at Su Lixiao, and said earnestly.

Everyone was shocked by Ming Xiu's style.

A scribe who was persecuted by the royal family, because of the jealousy of the royal family towards him, was lonely for half his life, but in the end he still had a merciful heart for the people of the world.

Such a literati who cherishes their family and country is not common in the scholars of the imperial examination, even in the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty.

"Ming Xiu, what are your plans for the future?"

Su Lixiao stopped Ming Xiudao.

"I'm alone now, I have nothing to worry about, I don't have a plan in my heart about the road ahead, but it's right to take one step at a time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't need to worry about me, there are many mountains and forests here, they burned this mountain, and I just find another mountain to stay."
