Advising the villains to be kind every day

When they returned to Huaihua Village, the villagers who had been driven away by Wu Si and others had almost returned.Those who did not return either fled or froze or starved to death in the mountains.

Although Wu Si and the others didn't directly harm anyone, these villagers died because of them. It was inevitable that they should be sent to the government for questioning, but Xiao Jingchen didn't pursue it.This made Zhuang Wan very puzzled.

"Rest overnight, and return to Beijing tomorrow." Xiao Jingchen entered the room after saying a few words.

"My lord..." Zhuang Wan wanted to say something more, but Rong Li pulled her away.

She looked back at the figures in the room, thinking that Xiao Jingchen and Mu Qiulan probably had a lot to say when they reunited after a long absence, so she reluctantly gave up, but she was still angry: "It's really cheap for those thieves."

"Don't worry! Your Highness has his own opinion on this matter, but you..." Rong Li stared at her with an expression that Zhuang Wan couldn't understand.

"When Wu Si said that he was the former prince, your reaction was a bit strange."

Zhuang Wan's heart skipped a beat, and she couldn't help becoming nervous.She forgot that a counselor like Rong Li is not only good at guessing people's hearts, but also reads words and expressions. In such a critical moment, he still has the leisure to observe her?

terrible!

She naturally pretended to be stupid, "I just think it's ridiculous that someone pretends to be the former prince."

"Oh?" Rong Li said, "How ridiculous?"

"It's not good for him to pretend to be someone, but he pretends to be someone who can't exist, and he knows it's fake when he hears it. Isn't it ridiculous?"

Rong Li smiled and said: "If it's not groundless, then it's true. No one can tell whether the former prince is still alive or not."

Zhuang Wan's heart tightened, and she asked casually, "Do you know anything?"

Rong Li shook his head: "I was still young back then, so I don't know the details of these old things. However, as long as there are still people in the Yan family, these rumors will not stop."

Zhuang Wan: "..."

"What? Are you really going to kill them all?"

"Change of dynasties has always been like this." Rong Li said casually, "It's fine if they keep their own law and order. I'm afraid... the shame of subjugation will always make people hard to let go."

"National subjugation?" Zhuang Wan sneered: "Whether it's going against the grain to subjugate the country and exterminate the species, or someone stealing the country in the name of protecting the country, who knows!"

"Is it possible to say such offensive words?" Rong Li said sternly: "The rumors in the market cannot be trusted, be careful that misfortunes come out of your mouth."

It was only then that Zhuang Wan realized that she had slipped out of words in a moment of anger, and scratched her head, "I'll just say whatever I want."

"Of course I know." Rong Li said, "You are younger than me, if you hadn't heard some rumors, how could you say such a thing, you have nothing to do with the Yan family."

Zhuang Wan laughed dryly, "I don't know who the Yan family is."

She always felt that what Rong Li said today seemed to mean something, and she looked at her strangely.

It seems that this person really can't get in touch too deeply, otherwise one day he will see the clues.

She yawned, "It's getting late, go to bed. We're on our way tomorrow!"

Rong Li looked at her back thoughtfully.

He checked Zhuang Wan's background and found nothing.No relatives, no origin.There is only one acquaintance Li Daniu.

It doesn't make sense to say that she is a descendant of the Yan surname. According to the old grudge between the Yan and Xiao families, it is impossible for her to be so indifferent when facing the Xiao family. Besides, there is something wrong today, and she is usually not seen to care about these things.

It's easy to say about other things, but the people and things of the previous dynasty are like thorns in the throat for the current emperor, and he would rather kill by mistake than let one go.He naturally hoped that Zhuang Wan would not get involved.

The next day, several people were preparing to leave for Beijing.Zhuang Wan, Mu Qiulan and the sick Mu family rode in a carriage, while Xiao Jingchen and Rong Li rode on horses.

On the carriage, Zhuang Wan saw that Mu's face was pale and ashen, and she coughed so badly, it's probably not a common cold syndrome.Mu Qiulan is proficient in pharmacology, so she should have seen it.

"Don't worry, aunt!" Mu Qiulan comforted, "Your illness will be cured when you see the doctor in Kyoto."

Mrs. Mu patted her hand: "I know my body well. It's just that the only thing my aunt is worried about is you, Lan'er, cough cough..."

"Auntie, don't say such depressing words." Mu Qiulan's eyes were red, "You will live a long life."

"That's right..." Zhuang Wan also said, "Mrs. Mu, don't worry too much. There are many famous doctors in Kyoto. Let alone your mere cough, even the most difficult symptoms can be cured by medicine. You can relax and take a good rest. nourish the spirit.

"Sister is right." Mu Qiulan tucked up the cotton coat that was covering Mu's body, "Auntie, take a break first! It's still far from the capital!"

"Okay!" Mrs. Mu nodded, closing her eyes and resting her mind.

Zhuang Wan remembered that in the book, Mu Shi did indeed die of illness.She saw the sadness in Mu Qiulan's eyes, and thought that the Mu family might not have much time, and when she returned to Beijing this time, Mu Qiulan's life experience should be revealed...

The snow was clear and the sky was clear, and the long-lost sunshine finally showed its face.It seems that all the gloom and mist have disappeared.

But Rong Li saw that Xiao Jingchen was still frowning.

"If your lord has any concerns, you might as well..."

"Those who make big things don't care about small things." Xiao Jingchen sighed: "After returning to Beijing, I will send someone to clean up the matter in Huaihua Village."

Rong Li nodded: "Understood. It's just that it's still unclear who is behind the scenes, so don't be so anxious."

Xiao Jingchen: "No matter who instigates it, if this matter spreads, it will be harmful to Dayan's foundation. If it doesn't stop here, more people will die."

Rong Li sighed: "But if you let His Majesty know that His Highness is involved in this matter, I'm afraid you will think too much."

"Father didn't intend to give me the position of crown prince, but he already had suspicions. After returning to Beijing, he will go to the palace to explain the reason. After all, father's heart disease is still those descendants of Yan in Yunzhou. If you get rid of this heart disease but are afraid of Youyou's mouth, you will have trouble sleeping and eating."

He looked at Rong Li: "It is said that Emperor Wen Zhao was so stupid that the villain became a villain and destroyed the country. What do you think... How is Father Emperor compared to him?"

Rong Li said without hesitation: "Your Majesty is wise and powerful, how can Emperor Wen Zhao be compared?"

Xiao Jingchen shook his head and smiled, "Even you have learned to flatter me in front of me. I don't want this answer when I ask you like this."

Rong Li was silent for a while and said: "Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and it is easy to govern the country, but...he lacks benevolence."

Xiao Jingchen sighed: "Since ancient times, it's easier to win the world than it is to keep it. Father is a military general, he likes to rule the world with severe punishments and laws, but he's self-willed. If things go on like this, I'm afraid he will follow in the footsteps of Emperor Wen Zhao."

Rong Li went on to say: "But King Yan and King An have neither the ability to govern the country nor the reputation of virtuous virtue. If the Great Yan Dynasty is handed over to them, there will be endless troubles. Therefore, only Your Highness is the best candidate for the heir. Only His Highness Only then can Dayan live forever."

"I can't bear such a great reputation." Xiao Jingchen smiled: "However, you said that you revealed a Qi Wang Xiao Jingyu."

I didn't update it a few days ago, and I will resume updating from today.
