Liu Chan snorted and turned his head to the side. Liu Fu blamed him for being too ignorant and scolded him casually. Unexpectedly, this guy got up and left with a snort. Liu Chan has been pampered since he was a child, and he will get angry if he does anything wrong.
Liu Fuju couldn't do anything about his temper. Liu Meng persuaded him to come back after talking hard.
Everyone didn't take it seriously, but instead took it as a joke, and stood up to toast Liu Chan. Liu Chan then turned from anger to joy, and soon became mingled with everyone again.
Just when Liu Fuju raised his wine glass and was about to continue talking, he saw Zhang Baihu running in from the outside sweating profusely. It turned out that after returning from the ruined temple, Deng Bingtang sent him back to the Liu Mansion to pick up his wife Qian. Unexpectedly, this boy
It takes half a day to go there
Seeing his panic, and seeing no sign of Qian outside the door, Deng Bingtang suddenly had a bad feeling and asked hurriedly: "Zhang Lian, I asked you to pick up your wife, where is your wife?"
Zhang Baihu's face suddenly turned pale, and he knelt at Deng Bingtang's feet. Everyone present was stunned. Shao Yan said impatiently: "Brother Zhang, don't kneel down. What's going on?"
"Sir, this subordinate deserves to die." Zhang Baihu kowtowed to the ground three times before saying with a sad face: "When I rushed back to the mansion, all the servants in the mansion were killed. Madam, she..." Zhang Baihu
I burst into tears before I finished speaking.
Everyone was shocked. The lives of more than fifty people were lost in the blink of an eye. No one could accept this cruel fact. Wang Wuyi was so angry that he immediately took out a big knife and threatened to kill him.
When he went to kill Wang Boyan, a traitorous minister, Shao Yan stopped him with a sharp voice.
"Zhang Lian, tell me quickly, where is my wife now? Tell me quickly." Deng Bingtang pulled Zhang Baihu's collar with tears, his dark yellow face added countless wrinkles, and his half-white hair suddenly
His face turned pale, his hands were shaking, and his heart was bleeding. He knew it would be a bad result, but he couldn't help but keep asking.
"Sir, Madam, she had already..."
"how?"
"Suicide by hanging on a beam"
"What?" Deng Bingtang felt his eyes go dark, and his body swayed. Fortunately, Shao Yan helped him immediately, and he swayed on the table. The teacups, wine glasses, dishes, etc. in front of the table all fell.
The whole floor suddenly made a sound of "dang dang". Deng Bingtang clenched his fists and kept beating the table, "Madam, it was me who harmed you, it was me who harmed you."
Everyone was saddened by this. Liu Meng was so angry that she beat her chest and stamped her feet and said: "Wang Boyan, this traitorous official with a human face and a beastly heart, I really want to kill him with one knife." He angrily took off the whip from his waist.
Wang Wu could no longer hold back and immediately walked up to her with a knife, "Miss Liu, Wang Wu is willing to go with you. Even if it means risking my life today, I will kill this beast with my own hands."
Madam Revenge"
The two of them did what they said. The moment they turned around, Shao Yan picked up a tea bowl and threw it on the ground. There was a "bang" sound and the tea bowl was smashed to pieces. "You two, come back here."
Wang Wu did not dare to disobey Shao Yan, so he had to step aside politely. Liu Meng did not. She came to Shao Yan aggressively and said: "Little uncle, I really don't understand. Wang Boyan has done many evil things, even if he is killed
It’s not an exaggeration to chop his head off tens of thousands of times. You are afraid of him, but I am not.”
"Mengmeng, don't talk to your second uncle like that," Liu Fuju scolded sternly. Although he intended to bring them together, he could not tolerate his daughter being rude in front of so many people.
"Dad, my daughter is right," Liu Meng mumbled, "In the past few days, he, Wang Boyan, has encouraged Hunjun to carry out large-scale construction projects and build his living shrines in various places for the people to worship. He also used the guise of building temples for the emperor.
He confiscated people's fields everywhere, ostensibly to do things for the court, but in fact they took back what they already had. He also sent people everywhere to search for people's wealth and anointing. Some people were forced into desperation and were reduced to selling their sons and daughters. The younger and stronger ones, or
You can become a monk to earn a living, or you can become a soldier, and most of those women were caught by Wang Boyan and his gang and put into the army. What kind of prostitutes do you think? Shameless people like this will be punished by everyone."
Hearing the word ***, Shao Yan suddenly thought of the masked killer Tu An. He remembered that he also said the same thing at the time, and that people who committed crimes could be exempted from punishment as long as they shaved their hair, and could even be exempted immediately.
After being released, Shao Yan arrived at the palace. He wanted to report all this to the emperor several times, but later he forgot about it because he was busy saving people. However, he knew that with Zheng Kai's weak personality, even if he could barely listen, he would not be able to take it back.
Success, after all, Wang Boyan's power was too great, and the emperor couldn't do anything about him.
Seeing Liu Meng's frown, Yun Yun walked over and took her hand, saying: "Miss Liu, calm down, so many things happened in Shangshu Mansion all of a sudden, the young master is actually more anxious than you."
Liu Meng pushed her hand away and said angrily: "What's the use of being anxious? Look at his helpless look, he looks like a man who is greedy for life and afraid of death. You still expect him to avenge Mrs. Qian, it's just a fool's dream."
As he spoke, he looked at Shao Yan coldly.
Damn, this girl has changed so fast. When I just praised her a few words, she was still so gentle and lovely. Now she seems to have completely changed. But if you think about it carefully, this girl was always so naughty.
He has the virtue of being reasonable. He loses his temper after saying only a few words and makes strong arguments when he can't get it right. Shao Yan has long been used to it and said disdainfully: "Since Miss Liu is so capable, then you can go now."
Yeah, killing the traitorous minister first and then the foolish king is easy to say. Wang Boyan is also a first-class prime minister. How can you kill him just when you say it? That's not like playing house for a child. Besides, just rely on it.
Were you able to kill him in those two attacks? You couldn't even defeat Jin Dingguo next to him, so how could you even talk about revenge?"
"You..." Liu Meng saw that he was being spoken to so badly. She was so angry that stars popped out of her eyes. She made fists with both hands and hit him. Yunyun immediately waved her hands to block him. Liu Meng became even more angry and took out the whip.
Wanting to meet her, Liu Fuju became furious and took the whip from Liu Meng's hand, scolding: "Mengmeng, if you dare to be rude to guests again, don't blame me for serving my father's family."
The "family law" Liu Fuju refers to is sitting in front of the wall for as long as half a day or as long as three days. The two siblings have often made mistakes since they were young, so they have tried it themselves. They know that it is uncomfortable to be locked up, and Liu Meng is worried about it.
Dissatisfied, he turned around and left the scene with a groan.
Liu Fuju felt helpless because of his daughter's stubborn character, so he had to apologize to everyone present on her behalf. Fortunately, everyone was a sensible person and did not share her common sense. He even praised Liu Meng in front of Liu Fuju for her straightforward personality and that she was worthy of being called "Liu Meng".
Liu Fuju, a hero among women, was both happy and ashamed to hear this
Shao Yan has been used to Liu Meng's eldest lady's temper since he entered the Liu Mansion, so naturally he won't take this little thing to heart. But seeing Deng Bingtang's heartbroken expression, he couldn't help but feel a trace of sadness and guilt in his heart.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Deng, it's my fault for not thinking carefully. If I had known this would happen, I should have sent someone to take Mrs. Deng away a few days ago."
"Brother Shao, please don't say that. I can't blame you for this. I never thought that Wang Boyan would be so vicious. Even the servants in my house would not let him go." Deng Bingtang wiped the tears from his eyes and waved his hands feebly.
He paused for a moment and sighed: "Fortunately, Ling'er has followed her master into the mountains. I only have one relative left in this world, Ling'er. Creation plays tricks on people, creatures play tricks on people, hahaha..."
Deng Bingtang laughed loudly with tears in his eyes. The laughter was so pitiful and sad, so lonely and helpless. Shao Yan was relieved when he heard that Deng Ling'er had entered the mountain. It is said that her master lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests all year round. No matter how powerful Wang Boyan was,
She couldn't be found at once. The most important thing at the moment was the Liu Mansion. If Wang Boyan knew that Deng Bingtang was here, not only would no one be able to leave, but even Liu Fuju's family of three would be implicated. Thinking of this, Shao Yan stood up and said:
"Brother, Mr. Deng, it seems that Wang Boyan has discovered the package s Our whereabouts have been exposed. It is not appropriate to finish the matter. We must leave here overnight."
Liu Fuju hurriedly said: "Brother, please rest assured, no matter how powerful Wang Boyan is, he will not dare to break into the house and search without permission." After that, Liu Chan was asked to go to the room and take out a gold medal as big as two palms. He saw the words "avoid death" written on it.
"Gold medal for immunity from death?" Everyone screamed almost at the same time
"That's right, this gold medal was given by the late emperor. Only the current emperor has the right to bring people to search for it. I forgive him that Wang Boyan doesn't have the courage," Liu Fuju said
Everyone cheered in unison, but Shao Yan was helpless and said: "But, brother, what if the emperor personally brings people here to search?"
Liu Fuju was asked. Today, the emperor is just a puppet. All decisions are made by Wang Boyan. Wang Boyan says east, but the emperor dare not go west. If it is like what Shao Yan said, let alone a gold medal to avoid death, even if
Even if the late emperor is resurrected, it will be of no use.
"Mr. Shao is right. Wang Boyan, an old fox, will definitely find Mr. Liu as soon as he learns that Mr. Deng has been betrayed, because he knows that Mr. Deng has nowhere to go except Mr. Liu." Zhang Baihu worried
typical
"Hey, brother Zhang, what do you mean by having nowhere to go? Since Nanliang country can't accommodate you, let's just let Mr. Deng go back to Donglin with us. You won't be an official anywhere. Maybe when you get to Donglin country,
Mr. Deng can still be promoted to one rank, just because he is young..." Wang Wugang had just finished speaking. Zhang Er beside him gently pulled the corner of his clothes, for fear that he would reveal Shao Yan's true identity.
"Go back to Donglin?" Liu Fuju was stunned for a moment, then nodded after thinking for a while and said, "That's fine. I heard that the new king of Donglin Kingdom has just been established. A loyal and good man like Lord Deng will definitely be entrusted with important responsibilities by the new emperor."
Of course, I only use loyal ministers as the emperor. If Lao Deng is a traitor and a corrupt official, I will not take this risk? Shao Yan secretly said with joy
Wang Wu and Zhang Er couldn't help but look at each other with amusement, thinking to themselves that the emperor of Donglin Kingdom was sitting next to you, and you didn't know it.
Faced with everyone's suggestions, Deng Bingtang frowned and did not express his position. Zhang Baihu said indignantly: "There is no place for me to stay here. I have my own place to stay. Lord Deng, please don't hesitate any more. Instead of working here for that foolish king, let's do it."
, it is better to surrender to Mingjun as soon as possible, and then find the traitor to settle accounts later."
Seeing that Deng Bingtang didn't say anything for a long time, Shao Yan advised: "Master Deng, what do you still care about now? Do you still expect the emperor to appoint you again? The emperor can agree to let you go this time, which is already a great kindness. Wang
Wu is right, you will be an official wherever you go, you should come back to Donglin with us."
"This..." Deng Bingtang suddenly felt in a dilemma. On one side was the imperial court that he had been loyal to for many years, and on the other side was the good advice from Shao Yan and others. After thinking about it, he had no choice but to reluctantly nod in agreement. Everyone was excited, and Liu Fu ordered his servants to close the door.
After closing all the doors to avoid official searches, Shao Yan and others packed up and prepared to leave from the backyard of the Liu Mansion. Unexpectedly, at this moment, more than ten masked men suddenly fell in the air. Each of them held a sharp knife. In an instant,
Shao Yan, Liu Fuju and others were surrounded. The leader was the killer Tu An.
"Deng Bingtang, Shao Yan, you have been heavily surrounded. Let me see where you are going?"
