Chapter 139 Returning to Beijing to Eat Big Melon
Shen Shixu looked at his body with pity in his eyes. If Liuying had not gone astray, they might have become good friends.
Liuying was dead, and those people in Changsheng Pavilion no longer had the energy to resist, so they were easily captured.
Shen Shixu asked the captured people from Changsheng Pavilion, "Are there any children from Pingcheng County that you kidnapped still alive?"
The man squatted on the ground with his hands on his head. When Shen Shixu was asking questions, Xiao Jinyi drew out Chixue's sharp sword and put it on his neck, forcing him to dare not not answer.
“Those children were not captured by the Left Protector, but by his subordinates. The Left Protector only found out about this after the bodies of the children were found.
Protector Zuo personally dealt with those who committed crimes, and those children who had not been harmed were raised by us on a farm in the suburbs. They are all still alive and well, intact and have gained a lot of weight! ”
The man sounded so proud when he said the last sentence. Although they are all bachelors and have no wives, let alone children, they are really good at raising children.
The children, who were originally very skinny and weighed almost the same as chicks, became plump after being raised by them for a few days.
Those parents who came to look for their children were originally standing outside the yamen crying, feeling sorry for the suffering their children had suffered in the past few days.
But when they saw the child running out and rushing into their arms, who was obviously fatter than before he was taken away, they couldn't say a word of sympathy at all. The words were stuck in their throats and couldn't go up or down.
After things here were resolved, Shen Shixu and his friends planned to return to Beijing. Before returning to Beijing, Shen Shixu asked someone to send Liuying's body to the burial place of the head of Changsheng Pavilion, dug a grave next to him, and then buried Liuying in it.
Being buried with the one she loves should be a comfort to Liuying!
As for the man who killed Liuying and let her down, although Shen Shixu wanted to do something immoral to the corpse, he was surrounded by people from famous and upright families, so he really couldn't do such a thing as slapping the corpse.
He had no choice but to return to Beijing with regret. Just after arriving in the capital, before he had time to go back home to rest for a while, he ate a big melon.
Shen Shixu, Xiao Jinyi, Xiao Lie and others rode into the city on horseback and walked slowly on the street. As they walked, they saw many people running in one direction.
Based on my intuition from having eaten so much gossip, I know that there must be something exciting to watch where there are many people, without even asking anyone.
They settled the horses they were holding, and a few people squeezed into the crowd like loaches, quickly grabbing a great spot to watch the fun.
Someone was squeezed out of his seat and was about to open his mouth to curse, but when he saw that they were all tall and strong, he immediately shut his mouth and moved to the side.
Xiao Lie looked at one of the middle-aged men in brocade clothes and felt that he looked familiar. "Jin Yi, do you think that man in dark blue brocade clothes looks familiar? Why do I feel like I've seen him somewhere?"
Xiao Jinyi looked at Xiao Lie with some disdain, which made Xiao Lie very angry, but he couldn't say anything because he needed a favor from him.
"Uncle, you have a really bad memory. Isn't that man Uncle Kang Wang? When we were young, we visited the Kang Wang Mansion and wasted Uncle Kang Wang's valuable koi. Then we were punished to copy the Three Character Classic ten times. You wanted to cheat and pushed your ten copies of the Three Character Classic to me and my elder brother!"
When Xiao Lie heard Xiao Jinyi say this, he remembered.
It was true that the man with the red face and thick neck was his cousin. He also recognized the person who had quarreled with him. Wasn't that his cousin's wife, Princess Kang?
Why did this couple start arguing in the street in front of so many people?
Just as he was curious, he heard a ding-dong sound, followed by a crackling sound, and then a blue object appeared in front of him that he couldn't tell what it was.
Baili Xi and the others had already seen it once before, so when they saw this screen, they knew there was another good show to watch.
Thinking that Xiao Lie didn't know about this before, Baili Xi held his hand and wrote on the back of his hand with his fingers.
It was written very simply, just three words, 011. Xiao Lie understood it immediately.
This was something 011 had tinkered with. When Prince Kang was about to tell Princess Kang that they could talk about it when they got home, he noticed a transparent screen in front of him.
He looked at Princess Kang who was equally shocked, knowing that she could see it too.
Just as he was looking at the group of people to see if they knew anything, he discovered that there were a few familiar-looking people among the crowd watching the fun.
Just as Prince Kang was about to open his mouth to ask if they could see the screen, Xiao Lie rushed over, grabbed his shoulders, then quickly turned his back and covered his mouth.
Shen Shixu heard Xiao Lie's very surprised and enthusiastic voice, "This is such a coincidence, I just came back and ran into my cousin, and we haven't seen each other for such a long time. I'll go to your house at noon to bother you, my cousin won't mind, right?"
Prince Kang was not a stingy person, and this was his younger brother who had grown up under his care, so naturally he would not refuse. However, just as he was about to agree, he heard Xiao Lie whisper to him.
"Cousin, you should have seen the screen in front of you, right? Don't say it, but you can't say it even if you want to.
I will explain the details to you when I have time. Now don’t ask anything, just watch. Maybe I can help you solve some troubles! ”
Prince Kang thought what Xiao Lie said was very mysterious, but he still believed in his younger brother very much. Although he was not very reasonable, he had never made any mistakes in major matters.
Princess Kang looked at the two brothers leaning against each other mysteriously, not knowing what they were talking about. However, she was not curious. What she was more concerned about now was what the cube in front of her was for.
Just when she was curious, a figure suddenly appeared on the block, and she was very familiar with that figure.
Isn’t this the stupid prince in her family?
Just as she was wondering what was going on, she heard an excited voice, "Brother, let me tell you this is a very interesting story. Prince Kang was deceived by someone.
I think this prince is a little stupid. He is so gullible at such an old age. He believes everything others say. Fortunately, his princess is smart and things have not reached the point of no return. Otherwise, half of Prince Kang’s wealth would have been cheated away. 】
Princess Kang didn't know where the voice came from, but this person was much smarter than their stupid prince.
He couldn't even see that it was such an obvious trap, and yet he was still foolish enough to give money to others. If she hadn't discovered it early, the palace would have been emptied out by him.
If he used her own private money, she would turn a blind eye and let him suffer a loss so that he would remember it.
But he insisted on taking the money from the household, which would be left to her son and daughter in the future, and he couldn't waste it.
