Gao Pengcheng shifted his gaze to Old Master Yun. "Old Master, could you please repeat what you just said to them?"
"good."
Grandpa Yun repeated what he had just said.
But,
"Lord Yun, please don't lie to us. We know you're only saying this because you're afraid the authorities will arrest us all."
"Yes, Lord Yun, please don't lie to us. We're not afraid."
"Yes, we are not afraid! We are able to live such a good life now all thanks to you."
"Yes, you've presented the Emperor with so many good things. How could the Emperor banish you to the frontier just because you speak frankly?"
...
Grandpa Yun: "..." Why isn't it working anymore?
Gao Pengcheng: "..." A man can bend and stretch! A man can bend and stretch! A man can bend and stretch!
After finding a seemingly noble reason, Gao Pengcheng walked through the crowd to Sisi's side. "Miss Yun, hello. Miss Yun, I should have listened to you earlier. Miss Yun, could you give me some advice? I would be extremely grateful."
"I'm not a young lady anymore, just call me Xiao Liu."
“Alright. Miss Xiao Liu… uh… Miss Xiao Liu, could you give me some advice? I would be extremely grateful.”
"You can't handle this; it'll have to be resolved by my great-grandfather. You wait here, Mother."
"Why!"
Feng Chan led Si Si to Old Master Yun's side and lifted Si Si up.
Sisi climbed onto Grandpa Yun's shackles and whispered a few words to him.
After hearing this, Old Master Yun immediately said loudly, "Everyone, please be quiet. I have a question for you. Please be quiet..."
Seeing that Old Master Yun had something to say, the officials quickly joined in shouting.
Soon, the surroundings became quiet.
Grandpa Yun looked at the people and said, "Tell me, am I smarter and more knowledgeable than you?"
Is that even a question?
The people answered in unison, "Yes!"
"Would you believe me if I said you'd been tricked?"
this……
"Lord Yun, how did we fall for someone's trick?"
"You definitely won't find those people who told you I was lying to you because I was afraid the authorities would arrest you. If you don't believe me, go look for them."
this……
"You guys look for it."
"Alright. If Lord Yun tells us to look, then we'll look. Yang Laosan, Yang Laosan, who told you that?"
"I heard it from Zhang Fugui. Zhang Fugui, who told you that?"
...
The results came out quickly.
"Huh? I just saw him standing here, how come he disappeared in the blink of an eye?"
"The person who told me that our good days would be over if Lord Yun went to the border is nowhere to be found!"
"The person who told me that as long as there were many of us, the government wouldn't dare to do anything to us has also disappeared!"
"Could it be that we've really been tricked?"
"Most likely. Lord Yun said we've been tricked. Lord Yun is smarter and more knowledgeable than us."
"Lord Yun, have we really been tricked?"
Grandpa Yun said loudly, “You’ve really fallen for it! You’ve all been tricked by those people. They didn’t want to save me; they wanted to harm me. Alright, you can all go back now. I’ll be back in a few months. You must come and welcome me when I return.”
"Great! We've come to welcome you!"
"Lord Yun, please slow down."
"Yes, yes, slow down. Maybe the emperor will miss you before you even reach the border and summon you back."
...
After the crowd dispersed, Gao Pengcheng quickly called over two men. "Go and hire five carriages, no, ten, hurry!"
Ten vehicles?
"Boss, we only have so much money..."
"We can't worry about that now, let's get through this first. Hurry up."
"yes."
The Yun family was stunned when they heard this!
They actually went and hired horse-drawn carriages for them!
The Yun family all looked at Sisi...
Sisi: Why are you looking at me? I'm doing this for my mother, not for you. "Great-grandfather, let's go."
"good."
Sisi and the others had only walked a short while when they heard a lot of carriages coming from behind.
Just as Gao Pengcheng was about to turn around to see what was going on, he heard the two men he had sent out to hire a car excitedly shout, "Boss! Boss! We've hired a car! Boss! Boss! We've hired a car!"
So fast?!
Gao Pengcheng looked back and saw that more than twenty carriages were approaching from behind. Half of the carriages had carriages, and the other half did not.
In the blink of an eye, the convoy arrived.
The two constables Gao Pengcheng had sent out to hire a carriage looked at him excitedly and said, "Boss! We're so lucky! They're from the Shenfeng Escort Agency. We just happened to be passing by their agency, and they had just finished delivering their goods and were heading back. Boss, aren't we lucky?"
The lead镖师 (bodyguard/escort) stepped down from the carriage, walked to Gao Pengcheng's side, and bowed respectfully. "Nice to meet you. We镖师 all enjoy making friends. Would you like to be my friend?"
Gao Pengcheng felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
Everyone who had seen Lao Hei looked at Sisi... You even have a security escort agency?!
Sisi raised an eyebrow: What's so surprising about that? I'm not back to die.
Feng Chan patted her chest: Whew...it's alright! Lao Hei is here! Lao Hei is more reliable than Lao Bai! Lao Hei still treats Sisi like his daughter!
The two constables who went out to hire a carriage nudged Gao Pengcheng when they saw that he didn't speak.
One of them even touched the purse on his waist. The implication was: We don't have much money to begin with; if we hire another car, we won't make any profit.
