After Chu Youyang escaped, he originally planned to travel around. Although he didn't bring any luggage, he already had a stack of banknotes in his arms, so he didn't have to worry about food and drink.

It's not that he didn't think about Xue Jinrong, but he had already found a wet nurse in the palace, and brought a midwife into the palace a long time ago. He also made an appointment with a group of imperial doctors in advance to be there when Xue Jinrong gave birth.

It shouldn't be a big problem.

Moreover, he didn't plan to go too far or for too long. He just wanted to leisurely play in the suburbs of Beijing for a few days and then go back.

In the first two days, Chu Youyang lived a life like a god, eating and sleeping, sleeping and eating.

On the third day, he had planned to have another good meal and then return home.

But……

When he went to the restaurant to eat, he accidentally stepped on someone's foot. It was not a big deal, Chu Youyang was still polite, apologized and prepared to make up for it.

But the man refused to give in, "Did you step on my feet? Lick my shoes clean!"

Can Chu Youyang bear this? He will take action immediately.

But his martial arts skills were so poor that he was subdued by the opponent after just a few moves and was even captured by the opponent.

Licking shoes is impossible, never in this life.

Chu Youyang would rather die than lick that guy's shoes, but ended up being beaten badly.

Could he reveal his true identity at this time? Wouldn't it be humiliating for him to tell it? The dignified King Jin, who was attending the morning court with the ministers a few days ago, was beaten up by a young boy today. Isn't he a disgrace to his grandmother's house?

"Tell me your name if you have the guts! Wait until I get out and see how I'll deal with you!" Chu Youyang threatened viciously.

The fellow smiled contemptuously, "It's okay to tell you. I am from the Jiang family. Do you know the Jiang family? They are second to none and above ten thousand people. You common people have to bow to our family when you see them!"

So, it must be Prime Minister Jiang Bai’s family!

Chu Youyang was secretly thinking that he would file a complaint with his third brother when he got back, and crush all those bullies in the Jiang family to death! But the man surnamed Jiang spoke again: "Do you know why I dare to tell you? It's because you will never have the chance to take revenge in this life!"

Chu Youyang was shocked, thinking that he was going to kill him. He was about to reveal his identity, but was knocked unconscious by this guy's henchmen.

Finished.

This was Chu Youyang’s last thought.

When he woke up again, he was grateful to find that he was still alive.

But while he was feeling lucky, he found out that he had been cheated and sold out by that guy.

It was really sold...

He is now wearing rags and has been sold to a river repair site, becoming a coolie.

He didn't have enough to eat, didn't have warm clothes, and had to work all day. That was not all, but because he wasn't strong enough, he often got beaten.

Chu Youyang had never experienced such a life in his life, so he tried his best to meet the foreman and explain his identity.

"I tell you, if you send a letter to Prince Jin's Mansion in the capital, they can give you a lot of silver!" Chu Youyang said seriously.

But the foreman just laughed and beat him up again, "Are you crazy? You're still talking about Prince Jin's Mansion, don't you look at your own character!"

Chu Youyang only now felt that attending court was really great. He also got up earlier than the chickens and slept later than the dogs. He only needed to sit during court, but now he had to move stones and dig pits all day long...

He couldn't live like this, so he had to run away.

Fortunately, he was good at escaping, but he had no money and nowhere to go, so he could only make do in a dilapidated temple.

As the cold wind blew, Chu Youyang shrank his neck, thinking that when he got back, he would have to get into the warm bed and sleep for three days and three nights.

Prime Minister's Mansion.

Jiang Gaoyun was happily checking out the items she had found on Chu Youyang: banknotes, jade pendants, rings, belt hooks, all of which were of extraordinary craftsmanship.

"It's obvious that he's from a wealthy family!" Jiang Gaoyun said happily.

Huang Zhuang followed up and agreed, "Yes, yes, yes! What's so great about being rich? He offended you and he still got beaten!"

Although both of them were dressed well, they couldn't hide the rustic atmosphere in their bones.

Although Jiang Gaoyun is Jiang Bai's son, his background is not very glorious. His biological mother was a maid on Jiang Bai's country farm. Once, after Jiang Bai got drunk, his mother took the initiative to climb onto Jiang Bai's bed.

But Jiang Bai thought she was ugly, so after that incident, he abandoned her in the countryside and never saw her again, nor cared about her, and even disdained to mention the incident.

Jiang Gaoyun spent his childhood in the countryside like this, being laughed at by all the other children for having no father, and being bullied and beaten by them.

His best friend is Huang Zhuang. Huang Zhuang is tall and strong, and ever since Jiang Gaoyun stole a few snacks for him, Huang Zhuang and he have been on the same side.

From that time on, Jiang Gaoyun took charge of the situation. He led Huangzhuang to steal, fight, bully men and women, and almost angered his own mother to death.

Before her death, his mother told him who his father was. Jiang Gaoyun made up his mind, robbed someone of two hundred dollars, and brought Huang Zhuang to the capital.

Jiang Bai didn't want to recognize him, but he threw a tantrum and said that if he didn't recognize him, he would file a complaint with the emperor, saying that Jiang Bai was bullying men and women...

Jiang Bai was stunned by his own momentary confusion and had to admit him. Anyway, he still remembered that stupid thing, the key point was that Jiang Gaoyun's mother was too ugly, with big buck teeth and a flat nose. She was the ugliest woman he had ever slept with in his life, no doubt about it.

Relying on Jiang Bai's identity, Jiang Gaoyun became even more domineering. He even robbed Chu Youyang and was still feeling complacent about it.

He gambled away all the money in a few days, and even squandered the jewelry. Seeing that the financial situation was about to become tight again, he suddenly remembered something.

"Right!" He patted Huang Zhuang on the back of his head, "I remember that grandson seemed to have something golden, why didn't I see it?"

Huang Zhuang shook his head repeatedly, "I don't remember, that's all I give you!"

"Nonsense!" Jiang Gaoyun slapped him again, "Tell me! Did you hide it?"

"No, no, really not!"

"Let me tell you, your family is just peasants from the countryside. If it weren't for me, would you be able to wear such fine clothes? Would you be able to eat such good meals? Tell me the truth! Otherwise, I'll send you back to the countryside!"

After his threat, Huang Zhuang was really scared.

He was afraid of starving and being beaten when he returned. After all, he and Jiang Gaoyun had done a lot of bad things, and the villagers would definitely come to settle the score with him when he returned.

"Here... I want to exchange it for silver for my mother..." Huang Zhuang took out something angrily.

Jiang Gaoyun took it, looked at it over and over again, but did not recognize the words on it. She only recognized that the thing was made of gold, so she took it to the pawnshop.

The pawnshop counter was high, and others had to look up at it, but Jiang Gaoyun was different. He stepped on Huang Zhuang's back and sat on the counter.

If he didn't sit down, he wouldn't be able to see the pawnbroker's astonished expression.

"You want to pawn this?" asked the pawnbroker, looking him up and down.

Jiang Gaoyun said proudly: "I may not be the winner yet, let's see how much money you offer!"

The pawnbroker quickly pushed the sign back at him, "No, no, we don't accept this!"

Jiang Gaoyun put the brand in her pocket and strolled outside with Huang Zhuang in a sullen manner, complaining as she walked, saying that the brand was a fake gold medal.

As they were walking, Huang Zhuang suddenly stopped, pointed at a plaque on a household, and asked, "Master, take a quick look. Are the words on this plaque the same as on the gold medal?"
