But he didn't expect that the next time he saw Nian'an was when the soldiers had knives at their throats.
He looked at Nian An standing at the back of the crowd. A girl beside him was holding his hand tightly. He said with a firm expression, "It's him! It was Fang Zhiyi who led the robbery of the government granary two years ago!"
Fang Zhiyi's ears were buzzing, and he could no longer hear what Nian An was saying. He only knew that he had revealed everything he had done. That day, he was thrown into prison, and none of his brothers were spared either.
Through the few words from the prison boss, Fang Zhiyi knew what had happened.
After escaping, Nian'an met Lin Yanqing, the daughter of a dyeing workshop. Under Lin Yanqing's "guidance", his sense of justice was completely awakened, so he took the initiative to report Fang Zhiyi.
He smiled.
"Little bastard."
Fang Zhiyi died. It seemed that someone paid money and he was poisoned to death in prison before he even went to the lobby. For a bully like him, no one cared whether he was dead or alive, and the officials hurriedly closed the case.
The western suburbs where he was entrenched was taken over by Lin Kunye, the owner of Kunye Dyeing Factory. The original order was completely disrupted, rogues began to run rampant, and officials continued to impose heavy taxes and levies. Lin Kunye used this place to start a bigger business.
Fang Zhiyi reached out and touched the scar on his face. "He stole government grain to help the people and deter rogues. He saved the money to help orphans and widows. Besides being a poor judge of people, the original owner was also quite a scoundrel."
Xiao Hei laughed and said, "Do you want to see the protagonist's perspective?"
Fang Zhiyi squinted his eyes and looked in the direction of the gate: "I have nothing to do anyway, so I might as well take a look."
Nian'an lost his father at a young age and was picked up by a bully. In order to survive, he had to live under the care of others. However, the bully had no children and wanted to adopt him as his son. However, Nian'an often saw the bully and his men bullying and humiliating the neighbors, so he could only help the people in his own way.
In his opinion, the outbreak of conflict was inevitable, and the reason for his escape was simple: opportunity.
Now that he has grown up and can make a living, he must leave this dirty place.
The fleeing Nian An met Miss Lin. He was attracted to Lin Yanqing at the first meeting. Listening to her talk about the ideas that he had heard before, Nian An admired her very much.
The two had quarreled because Lin Yanqing found out that he was Fang Zhiyi's adopted son.
"It used to be!" Nian An defended.
"Who doesn't know Fang Batian? He exploits the people of his village, commits all sorts of evil, extorts merchants, and assaults civilians. How could you possibly live with such a person?"
It was during this quarrel that Nian An began to repent and wanted to make amends.
So with the help of Lin Yanqing's father, he went to the government office and told everything he knew.
The natural ending is that the bully Fang Zhiyi is brought to justice, and Nian'an also receives financial support from Mr. Lin to study for the exam. After he passes the exam, Mr. Lin agrees to his marriage to his daughter. With the support of the wealthy Mr. Lin, Nian'an has been a first-rank official. The couple lives in harmony and has two children.
