Chapter 285 The Crown Prince Can't Lose His Identity
Seeing that Ma Biao still had no intention of going down the mountain, a man named Ma Shuai next to him couldn't help himself.
"Brother, let's leave quickly!"
Ma Biao smiled and turned to look at everyone, "Do you think Miss will lead someone to recapture that steep slope after she returns?"
Ma Shuai's eyes suddenly shone, "Brother, you want us to stay here so that the pursuers have no way to go."
Ma Biao nodded, "Yes, at least we have blocked this road. If they can escape from other places, that is God's will."
After hearing this, everyone immediately cheered.
"Commander Ma is right, let's stay here and beat his mother."
Ma Biao looked at Ma Shuai and said earnestly, "You take two people and rush back to the county town overnight to ask for help from the lady."
Ma Shuai promised and took the people away immediately. Ma Biao rearranged the remaining people.
Let me tell you that you can sleep peacefully tonight, but starting from tomorrow, you have to keep your eyes wide open and stare hard.
…
It was getting slightly brighter the next day, and an uninvited guest came to Hetou Village.
Tian Wen, the shopkeeper of Zuixianlou.
He drove his carriage to Hetou Village and asked to see Chen Xiaobei by name.
At this time, Chen Xiaobei had just finished breakfast and had not yet gone out. He originally planned to go to the vegetable field today, but a member of the village protection team hurriedly came to say that Tian Wen was looking for him.
He felt quite strange about Tian Wen's arrival. After working with Tian Wen for so long, he had never seen him come to the village to look for him.
When they were far away, Tian Wen jumped out of the carriage and gave him a polite hand.
"Oh, brother Xiaobei, long time no see. You are always so nice."
This was his sponsor, so Chen Xiaobei was of course very polite, smiling and giving him a fist-cup salute.
"Oh, Mr. Tian, why are you so far away? If you have a hard time, just tell me if you have anything, and Chen Xiaobo and the others will be fine."
Tian Wen waved his hands with a smile on his face, "It's okay, it's okay. I happened to be passing by and came to see you."
"I've always heard you say there's a big fish pond, so I just wanted to come and open my eyes."
Did you come to the village just to see a fish pond? This reason sounds a bit strange.
But Chen Xiaobei didn't think much about it. He asked the village guards to tie up the carriage for Tian Wen and took Tian Wen to the back of the village. As they walked, the two of them chatted here and there.
"Brother Xiaobei has stopped going to my place to deliver goods recently. What are you busy with?"
Chen Xiaobei didn't realize that Tian Wen was trying to trick him, and said with a smile, "I have been to Qingniu Mountain in the past two days, so I let others go. By the way, I was planning to plant some green leafy vegetables.
, it is estimated that it will take another month to grow, and I will send it to you then."
Tian Wen opened his eyes in disbelief, "What kind of season is it now? Can you still grow green leafy vegetables?"
"You must have found some treasure on the mountain, right?"
Chen Xiaobei smiled and shook his head, "No, no, going up the mountain is another matter. My geomantic treasure is at the foot of the mountain, and the temperature there is much higher than other places!"
Tian Wen looked at him in surprise, "High temperature? What is temperature?"
Only then did Chen Xiaobei realize that in this era, the word temperature might not have been coined yet, so he had to change his explanation.
"Oh, let's put it this way, even now in this season, it's so hot in that area that you can go shirtless."
After listening to his words, Tian Wen had an idea in his mind, "Can you take me to have a look?"
Chen Xiaobei was quite happy, "Okay, we'll go there after seeing the fish pond."
Squatting beside the fish pond, Tian Wen picked up a stone and threw it into the fish pond. He looked at the splashing water and nodded, "Your fish pond is deep enough. It's no problem to raise some big fish."
Just as he was talking, he saw Chen Dayong, a member of the village protection team, running over in a hurry.
"Chief Xiaobei, Miss Liu is back. By the way, His Highness the Crown Prince is also here and wants to see you by name."
As soon as he heard that the prince wanted to see him by name, Chen Xiaobei looked at Tian Wen with an apologetic look.
"Manager Tian, I'm really sorry. I'll ask someone else to take you there later."
When Tian Wen heard the news, he couldn't help but secretly rejoice.
The task was completed just like that.
Since the prince was able to summon Chen Xiaobei, of course he was safe and sound, and he could go back to deliver the mission.
Thinking of this, he waved his hand towards Chen Xiaobei and said, "That's all. You go about your business first. I'll come back another day. By the way, when your green leafy vegetables are harvested, don't forget to call me to come and take a look."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Chen Xiaobei went home and said hello to Cui Hongyu, then hurried to see the prince Xiao Jingyun.
After meeting, Xiao Jingyun first praised Chen Xiaobei, which meant that he led people to escape safely from Qingniu Mountain, which was a great achievement.
While he was talking here, someone came outside to report that Shen Ziyan and Huang Ying had arrived.
Why did you call these two people here?
Jamel Xiao smiled and raised his hand, "Please come in quickly, two girls."
After Shen Ziyan and Huang Ying came in, they respectfully lifted their clothes and knelt down to greet Xiao Jingyun.
Xiao Jingyun was stunned when he saw Shen Ziyan and Huang Ying.
Shen Ziyan's appearance is not to say that she would be the most beautiful girl in the world, but she must be one-in-a-thousand, or one-in-a-thousand. With a little bit of powder, she looks even more charming.
As for Huang Ying, there is nothing to say about her appearance. What is even more rare is that there is a hint of playfulness in her expression, which makes people feel happy at the first sight.
Seeing that Prince Xiao Jingyun was silent and looking at his eyes, Chen Xiaobei instantly understood that men all have the same preferences. Whether you live in a temple or farm in Hetou Village, if you see a beautiful woman, you will move away.
Don't open your eyes.
Liu Rumei obviously noticed something strange about the prince Xiao Jingyun, and her heart tightened. These were two folk women. How could a prince lose his identity like this?
When she thought of this, she quickly stepped forward and said with a smile, "You two sisters, please get up quickly. His Highness the Crown Prince said that you have done a good job in escorting me, and I will reward you well today."
Liu Rumei's words reminded Xiao Jingyun, and he laughed and said, "Yes, I must reward you well."
As he spoke, he turned around and looked at Zhou Quan next to him.
"Take your things out."
Zhou Quan took out two silver notes from his sleeves.
He came forward and handed one to each of Shen Ziyan and Huang Ying.
Chen Xiaobei took a look and saw that each banknote was worth two thousand taels. It was indeed a generous move by the prince, but he felt a little aggrieved because he had more credit than Mao.
What he didn't expect was that there was a surprise behind him.
After Shen Ziyan and Huang Ying apologized and stepped aside, Xiao Jingyun put his hands into his sleeves and looked at Chen Xiaobei with a smile on his face.
"Chen Aiqing, I want to give you something, please don't refuse."
When she heard what he said, a look of surprise flashed in Liu Rumei's eyes. It was obvious that she had already guessed what it would be.
Huang Ying also immediately opened her eyes wide with curiosity on her face.
