reborn princess

Chapter 218 I Can't Help You
She still knows how much money her daughter has.

Ye Weilan was inspecting a wooden box that was one foot long and half a foot wide. Although the box was small, it was extremely heavy. When it was opened, it turned out to be a box of gold ingots, all of which were twelve ingots. She couldn't help being surprised.

Li Feng saw this box of gold at the side, he was taken aback, and whispered: "Miss, no matter how this thing came from, it is serious to hide it as soon as possible. If people find out, it will cause trouble. Our house now has a large door. It is open and open, and my sister will bring someone to help us cook at any time. These things should be seen at night after the door is closed."

Ye Weilan nodded, quickly put the lid on, climbed onto the kang, opened the door of the kang cabinet, and together with Li Feng, moved out the quilts one by one, and then pulled out a piece of wood underneath, revealing a dark bed underneath. She specially ordered this secret compartment from a carpenter. It is usually used to store silver bills. She took out a small flat wooden box inside and asked Li Feng to put the wooden box full of gold. Go in, and then put the cover, you can't see that there is a hidden compartment underneath.

Sui Youran asked: "Lan'er, who gave you so much gold?"

Ye Weilan calmed down her thoughts, and said with a smile, "Mother, do you still remember the uncle I mentioned yesterday who saved us?"

Sui Youran nodded, "Of course I remember, by the way, have you thanked others?"

"Of course, these things were given by that uncle. Someone gave them to him. He didn't want them. He gave them all to me." Ye Weilan told her mother about the situation at that time.

Sui Youran couldn't help feeling a little uneasy, "Isn't it inappropriate to ask for so many things after saving you? I don't know if these things came from the right way?"

Ye Weilan said: "I see this uncle looks like a chivalrous man, maybe he is a man who plays games in the rivers and lakes. This kind of person is usually informal, mother, don't worry. I heard from the wine shop guy that this uncle is already here I have been in the wine shop for three years, and I probably won’t leave in the short term. I will often go there to give him some food in the future. Let’s not touch these things and put them all away. If he wants to go back in the future , you can take it out and return it to him.”

"That's the truth." Sui Youran patted his daughter's head lovingly, "You are a girl, you have to be careful outside."

"I know!" Ye Weilan agreed with a smile, and then asked Li Feng to help put all the things away, and asked Song Hengzhi to help write a list and write down everything.

But he said that Di Yong had brought people to the foot of Yuluo Mountain.Yuluo Mountain is in the east of Chenjiazhuang, about five or six miles away from Chenjiazhuang. It stretches out for thousands of miles until it reaches the seaside. In the forest next to it, every winter, there is a giant snow-white dragon.

There are so many wild beasts in the forest, ordinary hunters only dare to hunt at the edge of the forest, and dare not go too far into the mountains.Only the most experienced hunters and those ginseng pickers with unique skills dare to go deep into the forest.

At the foot of Yuluo Mountain, before going up the mountain, there is a dense forest, a small stream flows out of it, winding into a jade belt. Under the leadership of Chen An, Di Yong and him flowed together. On the road, about two miles into it, you can see an adobe house.

Chen Andao: "Sometimes when I'm resting and taking a bath, I'll bring Fu Gui here to chop firewood, so I accidentally discovered that the drunk man lives in the house in front."

Di Yong nodded, but did not speak. Several people came to the door of the house. On the left side of the house, there was a grave with a wooden sign erected in front of it.

They just glanced at the grave, and then stopped. Chen An stepped forward and knocked on the door, but only after knocking, the door opened.

"Is anyone there?" Chen An asked loudly.

But no one in the room answered him, he turned his face to look at Di Yong, and walked in.

This room is filled with a strong stench of fish and wine, although the window paper is torn, there is no way to cover up the unpleasant smell of these two smells intertwined.

Chen An frowned instinctively, and covered his nose with his sleeve.

This room has two rooms, inside and outside, the outside is the main room, the place near the door is the stove, and there is a compartment inside, which is used as a bedroom, and there is a kang in the bedroom.

Chen An walked to the door of the inner room, but before he could step in, his body froze there suddenly, because a sharp sword appeared out of thin air, and it lay across his neck, the sharp blade pierced slightly. hurt his skin.

"Brother, don't be impulsive, it's me, I'm Chen An, the head catcher of the yamen, we met before." Chen An's eyes caught on the downcast man sitting on the kang at the door of the inner room, with a wine gourd in his right hand, He was pouring wine into his mouth, holding the sword in his left hand, and the edge of the sword was resting on his neck.

The desolate man put away the sword in his hand, threw it aside casually, and said in a cold voice: "I'm not interested in who you are, get out!"

Chen An raised his hand to touch his neck with some palpitations, and then let out a sigh of relief. This guy is too scary. He just took a little slow reaction and blood spattered three steps.

Di Yong patted Chen An on the shoulder, signaling him to back out, then walked in by himself, clasped his fists and said, "Brother, the next official is Di Yong, the county magistrate of Liaocheng, and he is here to visit."

The downcast man tilted his head, looked at him from the corner of his eye, and said coldly, "Am I familiar with you? Do I use you to visit me?"

Di Yong was choked by him immediately, but he didn't dare to get angry. Just now, this man just made a casual move and almost wiped Chen An's neck, letting him know that this guy is not only cruel, but also black-handed.

With a smile on his face, he said: "Your official is taking the liberty to visit, it is indeed very presumptuous, please don't take offense, brother."

As he said that, he turned his face and gave Zhang Qian a wink. Zhang Qian was carrying a jar of wine and a few oil-paper bags in his hands. Seeing his wink, he hurried in and put the things on the kang.

Di Yong said with a smile: "It's not a good wine, I hope you don't dislike it."

"Heh..." The down-and-out man sneered. "Di Yong, the magistrate of Liaocheng County, aged 36, was formerly the governor of Kyoto. He was the eleventh Jinshi in the second list of Emperor Rendi's three years. Wen Mo, was demoted to Liao City, am I right?"

Di Yong only felt the cold wind blowing from his back. The information looked inconspicuous, as if everyone around him knew it, but he knew very well in his heart that this down-and-out man was a stranger to him, a stranger. People, casually revealed his private information, what does this mean?
This means that the man who looks down and out in front of him is definitely not simple!
In particular, he was the No. 11 Jinshi in the second list of Emperor Rendi's three years. Not to mention a casual stranger, even those Jinshi in the same discipline as him may not be able to tell everyone.Not to mention others, even Zhang Qian is his confidant, so it is impossible for him to know this.

"Brother, I..."

"Are you interested in my brand?" The down-and-out man suddenly took out the gold medal from his pocket, and the heavy gold medal twirled between his slender fingers, shining a dazzling golden glow.

Di Yong stared at it for a long time, but couldn't see clearly what was written on it.

With a mocking smile on the corner of the downcast man's mouth, he suddenly put the gold medal into his pocket, but he couldn't see clearly what was written on it from the beginning to the end.

"All forces in Liaocheng are entrenched. Since you took office, you have been made things difficult by all parties, and you have been struggling. Before that, seven magistrates were here. In recent years, no magistrate has been able to work for three years, so you Hearing that I showed such a sign, I frightened off the eldest son of the garrison mansion, so I decided that my identity was unusual, and I just stared at me in the banquet building today, wanting to see who I am, right? ?” The down-and-out man, like a roundworm in his stomach, spoke out all his plans in a mocking tone.

Di Yong was a little embarrassed, this was indeed his idea, and this down-and-out man was right.

"Let's go, I can't help you!" said the down-and-out man, turned over and lay down.

"Uh..." Di Yong's face turned red and white, and he stood there in embarrassing silence for a long while, and finally he could only speak embarrassingly. "Since that's the case, I won't disturb Xiongtai's rest, so I will leave!"

He raised his foot and was about to leave, but the cold voice of the downcast man sounded again, "Take away all the garbage you brought, I don't mind it!"

"This..." Di Yong said with a smile. "This jar of wine is 15 years old apricot blossom drunk..."

"I have my own wine!" The down-and-out man lazily raised the wine gourd in his hand.

Di Yong was even more embarrassing. He had a smooth life in his life, and he was awarded a Jinshi at the age of 25. Because his family was rich and his wife and concubines were harmonious, he had never encountered such a bad thing.Even in the officialdom, if someone wanted to think about him, they would always stab him in the back, and it was rare for him to be so merciless in front of his face.

Zhang Qian couldn't bear it anymore, and shouted sharply at the door: "You drunkard, our lord is the parent official of Liaocheng, and I come to visit you with condescension, why don't you be so ignorant!"

"Shut up!" Seeing him so restless, Di Yong felt a chill in his heart, and hurriedly scolded him.

The down-and-out man sneered, "Even if I don't know what to do, what can you do to me?"

Di Yong bowed to him again and again, "Your subordinates are ignorant, you will laugh at me, brother, don't be as knowledgeable as him, I will leave immediately."

As he spoke, he stepped forward and took all the food and drink into his hands, and walked out of the room quickly.

When he got outside, Zhang Qian said loudly reluctantly: "My lord, this drunk man is too arrogant! Why do you lower your status like this? Such an ignorant person should be arrested and severely punished."

"You..." Di Yong glared at him bitterly, and said flatly, "He has the ability to be arrogant. If he wants to kill me, I will definitely not be able to get out of here today."
