Mr. Zhang's face turned pale, and he took a few steps back from where he stood in front of Prefect Wen.
"who!!?"
Chen Yong curled his lips into a smile, casually closed the broken study door, and slowly walked towards the frightened Wen Zhifu and the other man.
He originally wanted to deal with Prefect Wen directly, and then knock down all the guards at the city gate to facilitate the smooth entry of his army.
Unexpectedly, after listening outside the study for a while, I got an unexpected gain.
It seems that he had previously confiscated all of Wen Zhifu's private treasury, putting Wen Zhifu in a dilemma.
It is not easy for a city governor to be forced to flee by Minister Jiang.
It just so happened that he needed someone who had a say in Danyun City to help Jian Guangqi manage Danyun City.
"Why, you don't recognize me!?"
"You..." Prefect Wen stared at the man in front of him and looked at him carefully.
The candlelight flickered on the man's face, sometimes bright and sometimes dim, which made him feel uneasy.
This face-----why does it look so much like the Shen family.
"What is your relationship with the Shen family?"
He had seen several children of General Shen's family. They had some similarities in features with the man in front of him, but their temperaments were not so similar.
Prefect Wen stared at the man in front of him warily, suspecting that he was from a branch of the Shen family.
Just now, this man entered his room so violently, but the guards outside didn't react at all. Needless to say, they must have been knocked down by this man.
Shen Yong raised his eyebrows and smiled, then continued walking towards Prefect Wen.
He placed his hands on the desk and looked up at the two men, Wen Zhifu and Wen Zhifu, who were standing right before him.
"Lord Wen has good eyesight."
Chen Yong smiled and said, "Since Lord Wen has no place in the Great Celestial Empire, why not choose another master?"
"What... do you mean?" Looking at the handsome face in front of him, Wen Zhifu's heart skipped a beat, and the image of Shen Yong, the playboy of the Shen family whom he met in the capital, flashed through his mind.
The two faces overlapped in his mind. Apart from their different temperaments, they looked exactly the same.
“You are…Shen Yong!!!?”
Prefect Wen's pupils trembled and he cried out involuntarily.
The capital sent wave after wave of people to look for Shen Yong's family, but they didn't find a single hair.
Who would have thought that Chen Yong had been hiding in Danyun City all this time.
This is really-----no way, how could Chen Yong have the ability to push open the door and come in?
He remembered that Chen Yong was a weak and insolent young man, so how could he easily push and close the door?
Someone must be helping Shen Yong.
Prefect Wen quickly glanced outside the door.
When Master Zhang heard what Prefect Wen said, he was so frightened that his eyes widened and he looked at Chen Yong in disbelief.
What! ! ?
This person turned out to be the notorious Shen Yong?
How could this person look like a dandy? He looked at Chen Yong in front of him and saw that he was clearly full of nobility.
"Haha!" Shen Yong raised his lips and smiled, "Prefect Wen has good eyesight."
"I heard everything you discussed with the master just now."
As he spoke, Shen Yong glanced at Master Zhang with a half-smile, "This trick of escaping from the shell is indeed quite good."
Master Zhang pulled the corners of his lips awkwardly, unable to smile.
It’s over, such a good trick can’t be used anymore.
Prefect Wen's face turned pale. "You heard wrong. We were just discussing the death row inmates."
"But you, you are a wanted criminal in the Great Celestial Empire. How dare you show up?"
"Leave now, and we'll pretend we haven't seen you. For General Shen's sake, I'll pretend that what happened today never happened."
"You-----run for your life."
Magistrate Wen glanced at the broken door bolt and felt panicky.
"Why, Lord Wen doesn't care about his family who ran away to the south?" Shen Yong looked at Prefect Wen indifferently.
"You..." Wen Zhifu pursed his lips and glared at Chen Yong angrily.
"What do you want to do?"
It was all his fault for being careless. He must never mention his family again in the future and should just treat those people in the mansion as his family.
Fortunately, the person who heard these words today was Shen Yong. Shen Yong was not on good terms with the court and would not report him to the court.
However, Chen Yong had a hold on him.
What bad luck.
He hadn't even wiped off the shit he had already done when someone slapped him with a bigger pile of shit.
The crime of harboring Chen Yong is even more serious than the crime of corruption and bribery.
But-----he is in a very difficult situation now and doesn't know what to do.
Why did this plague god come to find him? Isn’t his life miserable enough?
Now, I'm like a rat in a bellows, being bullied from both sides and unable to escape.
Magistrate Wen was so sad that he almost cried.
"What do I want to do?!" Shen Yong curled his lips and smiled.
"Your escape is indeed a good method to solve your current predicament."
"But if you do this, the two of you will be completely wiped out in the Great Celestial Empire."
"Your descendants who have fled to the south will have to live in hiding. If any unfilial descendant comes out and reveals your information, it will be a capital crime, punishable by the death of all nine generations of your clan."
"Are you willing to let the Wen family dig for food in the dirt, forever be inferior to others, and never be able to pursue a career in the government?"
"Is this what you want to see? A hundred years from now, will you have the nerve to face the ancestors of the Wen family?"
Every time Shen Yong spoke, Prefect Wen's face turned paler.
Yes, how can he have the face to face his ancestors in the future?
It took the Wen family so many years to raise such a talent as him, and he finally led the Wen family to its current status.
He then took the Wen family and hid in the mountains in disgrace. Future descendants...
Alas, Magistrate Wen pursed his lips and sighed helplessly in his heart.
"Is this what you want to see?!" Chen Yong did not give Wen Zhifu a chance to remain silent, and approached him step by step and asked.
Prefect Wen moved his lips twice, "No, I don't want to."
"But—it's no longer up to me whether I like it or not."
At this point, Prefect Wen raised his eyelids and looked at Chen Yong.
"Your situation is even more difficult than mine. We're evenly matched, so let's not laugh at each other."
The Shen family is a noble family with a much higher status than the Wen family, but their end is much more miserable than that of the Wen family.
The Wen family has money in the south, so at least they can become wealthy.
Unlike the Shen family, all of them were killed by Emperor Tianwu, leaving only Shen Yong who had to hide from place to place.
There is no harm without comparison. Considering the miserable plight of the Shen family, he thought that the Wen family was not that miserable either.
Chen Yong looked at Wen Zhifu and smiled meaningfully.
"You and I are no match."
"My 300,000 golden-armored troops have already attacked Wenkou City."
"Three hundred thousand troops!?" Prefect Wen stared at Chen Yong with wide eyes, as if he were a madman.
"Where did you get the 300,000-man army?"
The only child of the Shen family has gone crazy?
