Chapter Fourteen The Dude
He looked at Zi Yuchen, and there was a sharp pain in his mind. Only then did he realize that he had hit an iron plate. Not to mention the opponent's obvious ability to crush him. In terms of his identity, Shen Cai could not possibly attack him. Did he do anything else?
"You, you...ahhhh!!!" He covered his head in pain and crawled away, leaving only the slaves who were frozen in place.
Zi Yuchen frowned and said to the slaves whose bodies were immobilized by him, "You go, I know you are innocent."
After saying that, he turned around and loosened the restraints on the slaves. The slaves were liberated and crawled and rolled away with Shen Cai.
He walked up to Yi Xiaorou, showed a kind smile, and asked with concern, "You two girls, are you okay?"
Yi Xiaorou was still thinking about Zi Yuchen's displayed strength. Zi Yuchen's words brought her back to reality. She glanced at Zi Yuchen lightly and shook her head.
Ruyu also followed and said, "Fortunately, the young master came to help. Ruyu is fine. Thank you very much, young master, and thank you to this girl for helping me."
Zi Yuchen smiled and subconsciously touched the back of his head, "I hope the girl is fine."
"I don't know who the young master is, but I just heard that he is a disciple of Qingyun Mountain..." Ruyu was obviously very curious about her savior, or maybe she was curious about his identity.
Yi Xiaorou thought that if it were her, she would not be so stupid that she would answer whatever they asked, but...
"My name is Yuchen, and he is indeed a disciple of Qingyun Mountain. My master once said that disciples of Qingyun Mountain should guard against arrogance and impetuosity, and should behave in a low-key manner. Moreover, Yong'an also has a ban prohibiting monsters from traveling through the city. Yuchen does not want to have any influence in the city. The common people have no choice but to choose to land here, and this happened to happen..." The young man in purple clothes scratched his head and said all the things that were asked but not asked.
Yi Xiaorou thought that acting like this would bring out his reputation. I wonder if he had any misunderstanding about the word "low-key".
"So that's the case, is the young master going to Yong'an on foot?" Ruyu asked next.
Yi Xiaorou figured that nothing would happen to her, so she prepared to retreat quietly, but Miss Ruyu brought the topic to her with just one sentence.
"This place is far away from the nearest city gate of Yong'an City. I see that this girl has a carriage to drive her. I wonder if I can trouble her to take me and this young man together? We can drop her off at the city gate."
Shen Tianyun obviously didn't want others to know her existence. Yi Xiaorou subconsciously wanted to refuse, but Shen Tianyun opened the carriage curtain, wore a power fence hidden somewhere on his head, and agreed to them after getting out of the car. .
So a group of four people sat in the not-crowded carriage and looked at each other.
Zi Yuchen didn't know what was going on. He should have refused, but in the face of the girl's kindness, which was obviously a thank you for what he had just done, he still didn't say his refusal.
Yi Xiaorou could stay silent for a whole day if others didn't talk to her, but Shen Tianyun didn't say anything either. Miss Ruyu was surprised for a moment after seeing Shen Tianyun, and somehow she was no longer as talkative as before, and Zi Yuchen , he simply felt that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, so he did not speak.
Finally arriving at the gate of the city, he hurriedly got off the carriage and thanked Yi Xiaorou and the others and said goodbye. Before leaving, he only looked back at Yi Xiaorou with some doubts.
Ruyu followed Shen Tianyun and the others and waited for the carriage to pass the investigation and enter a remote alley in the city before getting off the carriage. She took another power fence that Shen Tianyun came from and put it on, thanked Shen Tianyun and left. .
After this magical experience was over, Yi Xiaorou said calmly to Shen Tianyun, "It didn't help."
I wonder if it was Shen Tianyun's misunderstanding, but she seemed to hear a trace of regret in Yi Xiaorou's calm and indifferent tone(?)
The East Street, where people come and go, is full of wine shops. A carriage stopped when it arrived at the "Fu Lai" Inn. Two girls got out of the carriage. Shen Tianyun took out a few pieces of silver from his sleeves and gave them to the carriage driver. After getting the money, he raised his riding whip and walked away.
Yi Xiaorou and Shen Tianyun walked into the inn. When the waiter saw another guest coming, he immediately came forward and asked enthusiastically, "What do you two guests want, are you going to have a meal or stay at the hotel?"
"No need." Yi Xiaojudo, then found a seat by the window and sat down. Although Shen Tianyun didn't understand, he didn't say much and sat down opposite Yi Xiaorou.
"Just two side dishes will be enough." Yi Xiaorou said calmly.
"Okay." The waiter threw the tablecloth over his shoulder and went to greet other guests.
The dishes came out soon after, and Shen Tianyun stood up with chopsticks in hand, eating the delicious side dishes elegantly, and asked in a normal tone, "Aren't you curious about my relationship with Ruyu?"
Yi Xiaorou, who was concentrating on eating, paused when she heard the words, "That's your business and has nothing to do with me. Besides, even if I am curious, I may not answer you if I ask you."
After saying that, she picked up a root vegetable and put it in her mouth, chewing it carefully.
Shen Tianyun was stunned, and then smiled with relief, "Ruyu can be said to be my savior. She was the one who helped me when I was being hunted down. She was originally the concubine of the general's palace, but she was arrested for helping me. He was demoted out of the palace, and that's why he was targeted by that person just now."
Shen Tianyun clenched the wooden chopsticks in his hand.
Yi Xiaorou glanced at her and said nothing.
The atmosphere was as silent as ever.
Suddenly, a "Peng" sound broke the silence, and several men were seen kicking away the wooden chair next to the table with a rough voice, and then kicked it back hard.
"Come on, waiter, bring me two jars of good wine, sir!"
"Okay."
One of the men with full beards slammed the knife in his hand on the table, attracting the attention of everyone in the inn.
But he seemed to have no feeling at all, "Haha" he smiled heartily, "I'm very lucky today. When I encounter such a good thing, I can actually earn a hundred taels by catching a woman. I have paid for my meal today, hahahaha , it would be great if there were such good things every day.”
One of the thinner people laughed, "How could such good things happen every day? How could it be so easy to make money if I didn't happen to be a wealthy person..."
Before he finished speaking, someone interrupted and said, "I know, I know, it can't be simple when it comes to being involved with the Prime Minister."
The man who was interrupted was unhappy. He glared at the man who interrupted him and said, "Do you still remember the prime minister's daughter who made a fuss in Yong'an before..."
When Shen Tianyun heard what they were discussing, his hand holding on to the chopsticks to pick up the food visibly paused, and he started eating as if nothing had happened.
Yi Xiaorou raised her eyes and glanced at her, lowered her eyes and said nothing.
These people don't have any scruples in what they say. They don't seem to be discussing secrets. I'm afraid they are not deliberately trying to lure a snake out of its hole.
"How could you not remember that the legitimate daughter of the Shen family, who was so ruthless and ruthless that she was living with others before leaving the court and was found to have killed her own mother with her own hands? I remember her name was Shen Heyun, yes, her name was Shen Tian. Yun's name is Shen Tianyun. What's wrong? Could this matter be related to that woman? "
Shen Tianyun held the chopsticks in her hands tightly, as if the chopsticks were her enemies, and her nails dug into the palms of her hands without even realizing it.
"I heard that not only the concubine of the General's Mansion helped Shen Tianyun at that time, but also the woman we arrested just now. I heard that the woman was also Shen Tianyun's mother's dowry maid."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, no."
"No way……"
"I guess they came out thinking that the matter was over, but that person found out. The prime minister happened to be traveling alone without a guard. Such a good thing happened to us, hahahaha." Exaggerated laughter. It echoed in the inn and was extremely unpleasant.
