The world of film and television begins from childhood

"Uh, are you guys playing some kind of bondage game? You're having such a refined time."

Qian Zhao and Sun Lang saw Yu Shisan, as if seeing him was enough. Especially Sun Lang, he shouted loudly: "Yu Shisan, let Qian Zhao and I go quickly. Ren Ruyi is a witch of the Red Guards. Zhou Chen is bewitched by her and can't tell right from wrong. Let's take them down together."

"what?"

Yu Shisan was stunned, and his first reaction was disbelief.

Seeing that Yu Shisan didn't believe him, Qian Zhao also spoke up, "Shisan, Sun Lang is not talking nonsense. Ren Ruyi is a spy of the Zhuyi Guards. Zhou Chen protected her, and we were caught by them."

Yu Shisan looked at Zhou Chen, as if waiting for Zhou Chen's explanation. Among the few people, he had the best relationship with Zhou Chen. Since he went on the mission, he owed Zhou Chen several hundred taels of silver. Even for the sake of the silver, he had to give Zhou Chen a chance to explain.

Zhou Chen asked calmly: "Do you think I am that kind of person?"

Yu Shisan shook his head, then nodded: "I don't quite believe that she is a spy of the Zhuyi Guards, but I believe that you have been fascinated by her."

"roll!"

Zhou Chen cursed angrily.

"Ruyi was indeed Ren Xin, the left envoy of Zhuyi Guard, but she left Zhuyi Guard five years ago. The reason she contacted Zhuyi Guard was not to betray the delegation, but to investigate some things. They saw Ruyi contacting Zhuyi Guard, so they made a subjective judgment and said that Ruyi was a spy. In fact, Ning Yuanzhou and Yuanlu also knew Ruyi's identity. When they came back, everything would be clear, but I couldn't convince them, so they tied them up."

"Oh, so that's it."

"Well, they're asking you for help. Do you want to let them go first, and then compete with me? I remember you seemed to want to compete with me for a long time, right?"

"Slander, absolutely slander. We are good brothers. How could I have such thoughts?"

Yu Shisan tried his best to refute, saying that even Qian Zhao and Sun Lang could not do anything to Zhou Chen and Ren Ruyi when they joined forces, so where did his confidence come from?

He trusted Qian Zhao and Sun Lang, but he also did not doubt Zhou Chen. Moreover, Ren Ruyi had been a member of the delegation for such a long time and had not done anything out of line.

Since Zhou Chen said that Ning Yuanzhou knew about this and was only helping Qian Zhao and Sun Lang without causing any harm, and also said that they would talk about it after Ning Yuanzhou came, then the matter was very clear. There was no need to fight, just wait for Ning Yuanzhou to come back.

"I will send a message to Lao Ning now and ask him to come over immediately."

Having said that, he ran back to the room and started writing a letter. Even the scolding from Qian Zhao and Sun Lang was selectively ignored by him.

Qian Zhao and Sun Lang were both very angry. First Zhou Chen kidnapped them, and now Yu Shisan refused to help, making them very angry.

Yang Ying stood there awkwardly, at a loss as to what to do or say.

Zhou Chen stood up and picked up the dirty sugar rabbit on the table, then walked towards Yang Ying. Ren Ruyi saw this and opened her mouth, but ultimately did not stop him.

"I heard from Ruyi that she lost her temper and hit you before, and she felt very sorry. She bought this for you."

"Sister Ruyi, bought it for me?"

Yang Ying opened her mouth slightly, feeling incredible. In her eyes, Sister Ruyi was very powerful and she basically never saw this side of her.

"Take it."

"Oh, oh, thank you Sister Ruyi."

Ren Ruyi stopped being so reserved and explained, "It was indeed my fault before. I lost my composure."

Seeing Ren Ruyi apologizing to her, Yang Ying was shocked and waved her hands in panic.

"It's okay, it's okay, Sister Ruyi, I, I'm not angry, you must be angry because I said something wrong."

During this period, Yang Ying was still very innocent and kind. Even when she was slapped by Ren Ruyi, she was only angry for a moment. Afterwards, she was still wondering if she had done something wrong to anger Sister Ruyi.

"Your Highness, you are a daughter of gold, how can you apologize to this witch? Your Highness, don't worry about us, leave quickly, she will harm you."

When Sun Lang saw Yang Ying like this, he became furious and struggled hard, yelling excitedly.

However, although Yang Ying wanted to save people, he did not have the courage and stood aside timidly.

After delivering the letter, Yu Shisan returned to the yard, but did not untie the people. Instead, he sat down with Zhou Chen and started chatting. He even occasionally glanced at Qian Zhao and Sun Lang who were tied up, revealing a filthy and sly smile, which made Sun Lang grit his teeth in anger.

The members of the delegation returned soon and were shocked to see Qian Zhao and Sun Lang tied up. Qian Zhao and Sun Lang shouted for someone to untie them, but they were stopped by Yu Shisan, who said that everything should be settled after Ning Yuanzhou returned.

So even though Sun Lang and Qian Zhao said that Ren Ruyi was a spy of the Zhuyi Guard, making everyone very suspicious and wary, no one really let them go.

In the end, Qian Zhao and Sun Lang gave up struggling, feeling extremely aggrieved. They were clearly the ones doing more righteous things, so why were they now treated like bad guys who were destroying unity?

What made them even more angry was that this group of guys seemed to be watching the fun on purpose. They would pass by them from time to time, laughing and talking, as if they were watching monkeys.

The two men looked as if they wanted to tear Zhou Chen and Ren Ruyi to pieces, and they were not released until Ning Yuanzhou and Yuan Lu returned to the inn.

Ning Yuanzhou already knew everything from Yu Shisan's mind, so after he came back, he immediately released Qian Zhao and Sun Lang, and then explained everything to them in person.

However, Qian Zhao and Sun Lang did not believe it at all, or rather, even if they did believe it, they felt that Ning Yuanzhou was courting death and did not agree with Ning Yuanzhou's approach. They insisted on taking down Ren Ruyi.

Ning Yuanzhou tried to persuade them left and right, and finally used his own personality to guarantee that Ren Ruyi would be fine. Only then did they reluctantly agree not to take action.

However, Qian Zhao still found Ren Ruyi and warned him coldly: "If you dare to do anything to hurt His Highness or the diplomatic corps, I will kill you even if it costs my life."

But Ren Ruyi didn't take his threat seriously at all. First, she didn't think Qian Zhao could kill her. Second, she had never thought of betraying the delegation, let alone hurting Yang Ying.

"Okay, okay, now the misunderstanding is resolved and everyone is happy."

Seeing that the matter was almost resolved, Yu Shisan jumped for joy like a child and clapped his hands, looking extremely happy.

But the next moment, Qian Zhao and Sun Lang attacked at the same time and held down Yu Shisan.

"Hey, Lao Qian, Lao Sun, what are you doing?"

"Hit him."

Qian Zhao and Sun Lang didn't give him any chance at all and just swung their fists to beat him up severely.

After a moment, Yu Shisan said with a sad face: "It's really unfair. You can't beat Lao Zhou and the beauty, so you just bully me."

Qian Zhao found Zhou Chen again.

"I hope you keep an eye on your woman, and I will keep an eye on you too."

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "Your harmless threat is useless to me."

"Humph."

Qian Zhao snorted coldly, turned around and left, obviously still holding a lot of resentment towards Zhou Chen's previous behavior.

At night, after Ren Ruyi had been out for a long time, he came back and went straight to Zhou Chen's room.

"This is for you."

Ren Ruyi handed over a carving knife and said, "I've seen you carve wood carvings a few times before. I just happened to have a piece of meteorite fragment from the past. I sharpened this. I just went out and bought a handle made of ox horn. It should be easier to carve wood with it than with other knives."

Zhou Chen took it and took a look at it, realizing the extraordinaryness of the carving knife: "Such a precious thing, you just gave it to me like this?"

Ren Ruyi said nonchalantly: "Just consider it as a thank you gift for not doubting me at all today and being willing to help me."

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "You are my child's mother. Even if there is no benefit, I will stand on your side."

"What if one day I become an enemy of your brothers in the Six Paths Hall? Will you still stand by me?"

"Of course, I will never let such a thing happen, but if there really comes such a day, I will protect you and prevent anyone from hurting you, and I will also prevent you from hurting them."

Ren Ruyi was very satisfied with the answer: "I just sharpened this carving knife and have never carved anything before."

"If you are free now, sit down for a while and I will carve one for you on the spot."

Zhou Chen went out and found a piece of wood that was neither too big nor too small, then looked at Ren Ruyi and started carving.

He is a true master of sculpture. Even a life-size statue is not a difficult task for him.

Ren Ruyi watched Zhou Chen carving seriously. The serious Zhou Chen was really charming, but slowly, her gaze shifted from Zhou Chen's face to the wood carving in his hand.

Zhou Chen carved very quickly. In less than a quarter of an hour, he had carved out a rough model. Ren Ruyi also soon discovered that what Zhou Chen carved was actually her.

"Okay, here you go. The material is limited. Do you think it looks like it?"

Ren Ruyi took the wood carving. What Zhou Chen carved was indeed her. It looked very much like her, even more like her than the portrait.

“Your wood carving is so amazing.”

"Practice makes perfect. We've been together for such a long time, and I'm very familiar with you, so I can carve so quickly."

"Thank you, I like it very much."

Ren Ruyi was holding her own wood carving and was much happier than the sugar man Zhou Chen gave her during the day.

Zhou Chen said: "I'm glad you like it. I'll find a better piece of wood and carve a better one for you some other day."

"No, I like this one very much."

She didn't care about whether it was better or more similar. She only cared that this was the first wood carving Zhou Chen gave her. There might be better carvings in the future, but the meaning of this wood carving would be different.

The next morning, Shentu Chi, the defender of Xucheng, sent someone to invite Yang Ying to the military camp.

Although everyone knew that Shentu Chi had bad intentions and Yang Ying was also very scared, she still mustered up her courage and decided to go.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 1405: Trip to Jinsha Tower

"If you're worried, you can go with me."

Zhou Chen persuaded Ren Ruyi who was sitting restlessly in front of him.

Ever since Yang Ying and the others went to the appointment invited by Shentu Chi, although Ren Ruyi did not go, she was very worried about Yang Ying and could not stay there calmly, because among the delegation, she knew Shentu Chi the best and knew that Shentu Chi definitely had no good intentions this time.

Zhou Chen saw her uneasiness and started to persuade her.

Ren Ruyi, whose thoughts were exposed by Zhou Chen, did not deny it in a shy manner, but admitted it generously.

"Shentu Chi is a man of cruel and tyrannical temperament, and he is quite calculating. He is not someone you can easily get along with. He must have bad intentions in letting Yang Ying go this time, so we must be on guard."

"I'll go check it out, just in case."

"Okay, with you here, I think Ning Yuanzhou and the others will feel relieved."

Ren Ruyi did not go there in his real body, but put on makeup in the room for a while, and finally walked out as a handsome young man.

"Good workmanship."

Zhou Chen raised a thumbs up. Unlike the flaws in the TV drama, the Ren Ruyi in front of him was completely different from his real appearance. At a glance, even Zhou Chen could not see any flaws.

"I'm going."

Zhou Chen did not follow. He knew that Yang Ying would definitely get into trouble today, but there was no danger. Besides, letting Yang Ying go through this might not be a bad thing.

The naive little princess in the cold palace must change if she wants to rescue Emperor Wu from the capital of Anguo. Experiencing setbacks and hardships can promote her evolution.

Zhou Chen, who had nothing to do, chose to practice martial arts in the inn. The more internal energy he gained, the stronger he would be.

Yang Ying and others did not come back until the afternoon, and then Zhou Chen learned from them what happened today.

Shentu Chi did have bad intentions and wanted to humiliate Yang Ying, and he succeeded. However, Ren Ruyi, who had been protecting Yang Ying secretly, stepped in to protect Yang Ying and made Shentu Chi lose face, and the two sides parted unhappily.

Because of improper guarding, Ning Yuanzhou severely reprimanded all the guards, then took the initiative to take responsibility and accepted the punishment of ten lashes.

But no one was willing to hit him, and finally he looked at Zhou Chen.

"Zhou Chen, come here."

Zhou Chen didn't hesitate. Since Ning Yuanzhou said so, he picked up the whip and beat Ning Yuanzhou.

Facing the resentful looks of Yuanlu and others, Zhou Chen shrugged.

"You all know his temper. If you don't want to fight, I have to do it. Otherwise, will the stalemate continue?"

Yuanlu and the others understood this truth, but they were still sad when they saw Ning Yuanzhou's miserable condition.

Due to the conflict with Shentu Chi, the delegation did not stay in Xucheng for long. After Ning Yuanzhou's injuries were almost healed, they set off again.

After walking for two days, the delegation arrived at a village called Qinjia Village between Xucheng and Caicheng and rested temporarily.

But just as everyone was about to drink water, Zhou Chen stopped them.

"There's something wrong with the water."

Because Yang Ying had drugged someone once, the entire delegation was very wary of this, so when they heard Zhou Chen's words, everyone was shocked and rushed to check.

There is something wrong with the well water, but it is not poisoned. There are just many dead rats in it. If you drink too much, it will not be life-threatening, but you will definitely get diarrhea.

The people who threw the dead rat were villagers from Qinjia Village. Originally they were citizens of Wu State, but because Emperor Wu was defeated, this place became the territory of An State, and they also changed from Wu people to An people.

If it were just that, it would be nothing, but the problem is that as the surrendered people, their experience was not good, and many of their relatives died, so they were full of resentment towards the delegation.

After this happened, the entire delegation, from Princess Yang Ying to the guards, were silent and didn't know what to say.

Yes, the villagers did it on purpose, but they are not looking for trouble. It was because of the actions of the royal Yang family that they suffered persecution, the deaths of their loved ones, and almost lost their homes. They only used dead rats and did not fight you to death. That is already polite enough.

The delegation, who had originally wanted to stay in Qinjia Village for a day, had no face to stay and quickly set off again.
