Chapter 72: Meet People
Chapter 72 The person who met
The official who came to Changling Village to collect grain was finally leaving. When he came, the empty wooden cart was already full of grain when he left. Watching the carriage slowly leaving, Wei Lizheng was full of sadness.
The tyrannical government is fiercer than a tiger. Every time you collect grain and pay taxes, you are hollowing out the fruits of the villagers’ labor.
Fortunately, only a dozen people in the village were going to do corvée this time. It was also thanks to the Yin family who lent food to the village, otherwise there would have been more people going.
“This borrowed food is also borrowed from the enemy’s family? What does it have to do with us when they go to corvee service, why did I see some people’s eyes changed when I pushed the second brother back.”
Yin Chengyun felt that it was inexplicable, but Yin Bowen stayed in the village for a longer time, but persuaded him to think about it.
“Things in the village are no simpler than those in the court. We cannot guarantee that every villager will be satisfied with us.”
Yin Bowen said as he sorted out a stack of open and yellowed books.
“Third uncle, don’t pay attention to those people, I’m digging something from the mountain and there are people staring at me.”
Yin Miao had already seen it, but in fact, this place is the same as many places in the apocalyptic world.
“Next time I go with you, I’ll stare back at anyone who stares at you.”
Yin Chengyun’s words made Yin Miao giggle, but she immediately remembered something, and took the opportunity to say again:
“Tomorrow I want to go to the mountain early to find some mountain goods. Young Master Xiao is going to walk around, so I will take the three of them to the mountain to have a look.”
“That’s fine, don’t let Young Master Xiao get tired.”
Yin Bowu said that with Yunjiang Yunhe following him, he was not worried about his daughter at all.
“Don’t worry daddy, let’s walk up slowly, maybe we can climb to the top of the mountain to play.”
Yin Miao said expectantly.
“I also really want to go with Sister Miao, but I want to go to the second uncle’s school.”
Brother Han pouted, and he couldn’t get up too early.
“The school also has days off. I’ll take you there when you take a break.”
Yin Miao rubbed Brother Han’s head and said softly.
Early in the morning the next day, Mrs Wei used to ask her daughter to wash up first after getting up early, but saw Yin Miao’s room was empty.
“Why did this child leave so early without saying a word.”
Wei Shi muttered.
“Xu was afraid of disturbing our sleep. I saw the note that Young Master Xiao and the others left on the table. They should have just left.”
Zhen Shi was still holding a note in his hand, and the handwriting left by the ink on it was not completely dry.
Wei Shi did not suspect him, and started to ask Brother Han to get up again.
At this time, Yin Miaozheng and Xiangrui were on Changling Mountain together. She buried a few sweet potatoes in an inconspicuous grass and continued to walk forward alone.
After getting into a pile of bushes near the top of the mountain, and after confirming with Xiangrui that there was no one around, she entered the space.
According to the previous plan, Xiao Xuan had left Changling Village the night before, and she also retraced the note a little according to Xiao Xuan’s handwriting. Next, she only needs to wait for Xiao Xuan to come back on Changling Mountain.
The sweet potatoes in the space were dug up by Yin Miao, and now they have grown to the next batch. She didn’t know whether the two little pigs would eat raw sweet potatoes and taro, so she steamed them in the space before throwing them to the two little pigs.
And those chickens and ducks only need enough food and some vegetable leaves to eat.
After working in the space for a while, Yin Miao ate all the leftovers from last time before opening the big bucket of ice cream and eating leisurely.
was simply the happiness of sneaking around. Yin Miao looked at the empty fresh-keeping box, expecting that the system would issue another temporary task to her.
“I just don’t know what Xiao Xuan is doing now. He is still wearing a human skin mask. I guess who is going to meet?”
Yin Miao thought while eating.
At this time, a very ordinary-looking carriage was parked outside a quiet pavilion, and Yunjiang Yunhe followed behind Xiao Xuan.
Passing through the hand-picking corridors on both sides, there is a gatehouse with gray tiles and white walls. The walls of the gatehouse are exquisitely carved. In the middle is the hall. There is a red sandalwood shelf marble screen in the center. Turn to the three halls behind the screen. After that is the main hall of this pavilion.
“You guys just wait here.”
Xiao Xuan did not turn around, but said to the people behind him.
“Yes, Master.”
After Yunjiang Yunhe took his life, he stood beside the marble screen facing the main hall and continued to wait.
And the master in the hall also rushed out.
“King Xuan, King Xuan, it’s really you!”
An old man over fifty years old looked at Xiao Xuan’s face excitedly, then covered his face and wept.
“Sir, the students are not talented enough to worry you.”
Xiao Xuan’s originally stern face also added a little warmth.
“It’s rare for Mrs. Zhong and King Xuan to get together. Please come in with me and talk about it.”
Wei Jingfu, who was dressed in ordinary clothes, finished speaking, and walked in with the old man.
The indoor bead curtain swayed slightly, the smoke from the tea stove sitting on the collapsed wafted, and the cup in the old man’s hand suddenly fell to the ground.
“King Xuan means that someone in my Nanxiao country secretly colluded with Beirou country?”
Zhong Yangmeng asked while looking at his former protégé.
“Exactly, the student wanted to go back to Beijing to investigate the matter, but he was blocked everywhere and even chased and killed. This person must be a high-ranking person.”
Xiao Xuan stroked the water marks on the ground with the white handkerchief on the table, and then raised his eyes to look at Zhong Yangmeng.
Zhong Yangmeng’s expression has changed greatly: “How can this be so great? King Xuan and I will go back to Beijing, the old man will try his best to decide for you, how?”
Xiao Xuan smiled, then coughed heavily for a while before saying: “Mr. worry about the country and the people, the reason why I told Mister this is to ask Mister about this matter, I hope it’s not too late to check again at this time. .”
“What about you? You’re not going back with me?”
Zhong Yangmeng asked with concern.
“Sir, do you know my father’s whereabouts? Even if the student returns to Beijing at this time, his body will not have much time. It’s a pity that my father’s whereabouts are unknown after leaving home letters. The student just wants to see him again in his lifetime, and the rest , I can only trouble you, Mr.
Xiao Xuan looked out of the window with a pale face, his eyes filled with nostalgia.
Zhong Yangmeng looked flustered for a moment, but it was only for a moment, but Xiao Xuan, who had turned his head, saw him.
“Old King Xuan is unruly, even the Supreme Emperor can’t do anything about him. Although the old man persuaded him at the time, he didn’t expect him to leave the capital anyway.”
Zhong Yangmeng’s meaning is very clear, he does not know where the old king Xuan is.
Xiao Xuan’s face showed deep disappointment after hearing this, and he said again:
“I don’t know if this meeting with Mr. is the last time. The student is not talented. I urge Mr. to convey the message to the emperor on behalf of the student. Be sure to ask him to pay attention to the people in the court and even the people around him.”
Zhong Yangmeng persuaded a few more words. Seeing that Xiao Xuan refused to return to Beijing, he could only sigh and say:
“Don’t worry, this matter is of great importance, and the old man will convey it for you.”
