Chapter 26: The Villain's Compulsory Course
Shen Yunzheng responded vaguely.
In fact, not only people buy, but also people grab.
"Youzhou is different. It's far away from future wars and there are no natural disasters. It's the best place for us to live."
Shen Yunzheng thought about it for a long time and gritted his teeth, "Mom, can I bring the people from Longao Village with me?"
"sure."
Shen Xun agreed immediately, the more people the better.
"But," Shen Yunzheng frowned, "Will Susong agree?"
He suggested: "Why don't we kill the officials and go on our own?"
Shen Xun's mouth twitched.
Her youngest son's words and actions are a bit bloody and violent!
Shen Xun curled the corners of his lips, "Don't worry, I'll find a way."
Shen Yunzheng nodded.
He then brought up another matter, "Mom, there are a lot of things in the village that are inconvenient to carry. How about I ask someone to go down the mountain and sell them and exchange them for banknotes?"
"Put your things in a safe place. I have a way to take them all away before you leave."
A look of surprise flashed in Shen Yunzheng's eyes, and then he agreed obediently.
"Mom, I still need to take care of some things these days, so how about I ask someone to take you around the neighborhood?"
As he spoke, Shen Yunzheng casually introduced several beautiful sights nearby to Shen Xun with great interest, and said that if he came to Longao Mountain and didn't go and see it, he would probably regret it for the rest of his life.
He was exaggerating, Shen Xun smiled and said: "Okay, then we will go and take a look. If you are too busy, just call mother over."
Shen Yunzheng nodded. He looked well-behaved, and apart from his rebelliousness last night, he looked like a kitten snuggling up to its mother.
Shen Xun's heart suddenly softened. She took the initiative to hug Shen Yunzheng and said softly, "Mom will never leave you again."
Shen Yunzheng also hugged her, "Okay."
…
Last night, Prince Hu wanted to try making elixirs, but unexpectedly, he made a mistake and the whole kitchen exploded.
The aunt in charge of the kitchen made a long list and was chasing King Hu for compensation.
King Hu had no money, so he kept hiding from the aunt, but the village was the aunt's territory after all, and he was found out by the aunt after hiding for a while.
“Pay back the money!”
The old lady put her hands on her hips and pointed at the list. "I don't want more than the above. One thousand taels of silver is enough."
King Hu was shocked, "You are stealing money!"
She could have robbed me of a thousand taels, but she still found a reason to compensate me.
"Take a look for yourself," Prince Hu pointed at the ruined kitchen, "What in there is worth a thousand taels?"
The aunt sneered, "If I say it's worth it, then it's worth it. If you don't pay it back... Guys, tie up this old man and give him a good bath!"
King Hu was frightened and crossed his arms, "You, what do you want to do!"
Could it be that he is still handsome and charming even when he is old, and he has charmed thousands of beautiful ladies?
The auntie shattered his fantasy with disdain: "You are so old, what can I do? Of course I can wash it, peel it, remove the tendons, chop it into dumpling fillings and eat it."
Prince Hu: “…”
Don't come over here!
He trembled and warned the aunt, "I tell you, I am your king's uncle!"
The aunt said nonchalantly, "I know."
"I know you still..."
"But our king told us to treat his family the same way we treat him, but you..."
The aunt curled her lips and said, "Not in the ranks."
"Come here, have him sign and seal. I will keep an eye on you forever until you pay back the two thousand taels of silver."
Prince Hu was furious: "Isn't it one thousand taels?"
The aunt swung a spoon at him, "Isn't my time time?!"
Time quickly came to the fifth day, and Shen Yunzheng told Shen Xun that he had gathered all the things he wanted to take away.
Chen Xun looked at the sky and said, "Let's go eat first. Didn't you ask someone to prepare a farewell banquet?"
Shen Yunzheng nodded, his smile widening. "It's ready. It's in the open space in the center of the village."
As there were quite a lot of people, Shen Yunzheng ordered each family to move out tables, chairs and benches and gather them in a large open space in the center of the village.
Over there is the place where Longao Village practices martial arts. At this time, someone has already arranged red ribbons and lanterns.
The banquet began, Shen Yunzheng, Shen Xun and others sat at the main table. He first solemnly introduced the identities of Shen Xun and others, and then announced the start of the banquet.
Of course, the true identities of Shen Xun and Xie Lan cannot be revealed, and they remain "adoptive mother and adoptive father".
Su Song and other officials sat at the same table. Su Yang glanced at Chen Xun and others without leaving a trace. When the people next to him pulled him to drink, he collected his thoughts and concentrated on eating and drinking.
Forget it. I’m leaving tomorrow, I hope nothing unexpected happens.
Su Yang glanced towards the capital.
Other colleagues have been given official positions and rewards, but he and his master are the only ones who remain unemployed.
"Don't worry," Su Song patted his shoulder and whispered, "Master knows what you are thinking. Don't worry, everything will be there."
Su Yang smiled at him and took his wine glass. "Master, your leg injury shouldn't be treated with alcohol. You still have a long way to go. Don't let drinking relapse your leg injury."
Su Song glanced at the wine glass with regret and chuckled, "Okay, Master, I'll listen to you."
After three rounds of drinking, everyone present was a little drunk. Shen Xun didn't drink, but she accepted all the dishes that Shen Yunzheng picked for her.
"Uncle, eat more," Shen Yunzheng smiled happily, "I remember you like mushrooms."
King Hu was surprised: "Are you crazy?"
Didn't this guy threaten to take revenge? Why is he trying to please him now?
Shen Yunzheng said innocently, "Why do you say that, uncle? I just think that we are all family, so let's just write off the past grudges."
He said a few more words of subservience, and King Hu decided not to bother with him and happily enjoyed the plate of fried mushrooms.
Oh my, it’s my nephew who understands him!
Qi Yunzhou gave Shen Xun a look: Mom, why do I feel that Yun Zheng is going to trick my uncle?
Shen Xun replied to him: I think your feeling is right.
Qi Yunzhou withdrew his gaze and lit a candle for King Hu in his heart.
This kid Shen Yunzheng has a lot of tricks up his sleeve, uncle, you'd better take care of yourself!
After eating and drinking, an official felt the urge to go to the bathroom urgently. Just as he was about to stand up and ask where the toilet was, he felt dizzy, staggered two steps, and fell to the ground.
"What's wrong?"
Su Song was startled and tried to help him up, but he fell down himself.
There was a commotion on the table between the officer and the prisoner. Shen Xun frowned, "What's going on?"
King Hu was just about to say that he would go and take a look, but he felt so weak all over that he couldn't even sit still, let alone stand up.
The same goes for others.
After everyone fell down, Shen Yunzheng slowly put down his chopsticks and stood up.
"Everyone," Shen Yunzheng smiled, "please stay in Longao Village."
Shen Xun sat on the chair and looked at Shen Yunzheng with great effort: "Yunzheng, what do you mean? Didn't you say that you wanted to go to Youzhou together?"
Shen Yunzheng slowly opened his arms and let the second-in-command and others put a cloak and a crown on him.
"Just because I said it, does that mean I have to do it?"
Shen Yunzheng laughed and said, "Going back on one's word is a must-learn lesson for villains~"
