Li Yi urged the car dealer to speed up all the way, and he arrived at the foot of Luliu Mountain in half the usual time.
Without any delay, they rushed to the village without incident. Before entering the village, several people walked over.
Li Yi easily recognized that it was Uncle Liu Qi's family. When he wanted to get involved in the candied haws business, he was the first one to speak.
At this moment, this family is full of burdens, big and small, even the two brats are no exception.
Seeing Li Yi at the gate of the village, Uncle Liu Qi and his mother-in-law froze for a moment, the expressions on their faces became weird, and they walked past Li Yi without saying hello to him.
The two brats paused, looked up at him, called "Sir" in a low voice, turned around and caught up with their parents.
When Li Yi stood at the same place and looked into the stockade, there were a few blurry figures with thin luggage on their backs, walking towards this side.
Among these people, there are members of the Liu clan, and there are also ordinary farmers. The look in his eyes can be described as weird, and more people pass by him without saying a word. Occasionally, some people come forward, He bowed his hands and said thank you.
For those farmers who don't even have land, if they save a little ten taels of silver, it will be enough for their family to spend two years in addition to settling down.
Although Ruyi is only the village owner in name, and they have never acknowledged her in their hearts, from this point of view, they are indeed treated kindly. These people can't say they have any resentment in their hearts, they just want to leave the place where they have lived for so long. Somewhat reluctant.
I don't know if it was Li Yi's illusion. When he walked through the village, he felt that the whole village was much more empty than before. It wasn't until he walked to the door of his house that he heard a rough voice coming from inside.
"Miss, what are you talking about? I won't leave, and I won't leave without saying anything. After living most of my life, I can be afraid of these little thieves..."
This is the old man's voice.
Another voice also came out: "Hey, miss, we all know where the food you gave us these two years came from. If we leave now, are we still human?"
After this voice came, several voices echoed in the courtyard immediately.
"Fart green forest hero, really treat us like a persimmon?"
"Listen to Lao Fang this time, we won't leave!"
…
…
When Li Yi opened the door and walked in, everyone turned their heads to look this way.
Liu Ruyi was taken aback for a moment, then walked over quickly the next moment, and asked, "Master, why are you back?"
Li Yi looked at her and said, "Everyone will go back to Fucheng with me. No matter how courageous they are, they dare not act wild in the city."
There are more than a thousand defenders in Fucheng. As long as those people appear on a large scale, the government will not ignore them. If those people dare to fight in Fucheng, they will not be able to escape with wings. But here, they don't have so many scruples.
"Your husband knows?" Liu Ruyi looked at him and asked.
Li Yi looked at her in the eye. Could it be that she still planned to hide such a big matter from herself
Liu Ruyi smiled, and said: "The ones who should come will always come, Mr. Don't worry, in fact, my concubine has very high martial arts...those people, there is nothing to be afraid of."
Liu Ruyi knows better than anyone else the way people in the green forest behave. If they can't teach them an unforgettable lesson, they may be in constant trouble in the future. There is only one thousand days to be a thief, and there is no one thousand days to guard against a thief. Of course she is not afraid, but there is no guarantee that they will not. Will start from another direction.
She turned around, pointed at a few people including Lao Fang, and said, "Uncle Fang, you go back to the city with my uncle first, I'm enough here."
"no… "
Although Ruyi is good at martial arts, she can't beat four hands with two fists. I didn't hear Wu Er said that there were dozens of those people. Li Yi couldn't let her stay here no matter what.
However, just as he was about to speak up to object, a sharp pain suddenly came from the back of his neck, and dizziness and darkness surged up the next moment.
"Sir, I'm sorry..."
He watched Liu Ruyi withdrew his hand, supported him, looked at him with an apologetic expression, opened his mouth, and lost consciousness again.
"Uncle Fang, my uncle left it to you..."
Looking at the eldest lady, and then at the uncle who passed out, Lao Fang finally nodded helplessly.
…
…
When Li Yi woke up, he felt that the whole world was shaking. When he opened his eyes, the land below was receding rapidly. This posture was very familiar, and the feeling was very familiar. The horse under him was even more familiar.
"stop!"
Li Yi yelled, and the old Fang in front pulled the rein, and the horse gradually stopped.
Lao Fang kindly reminded him: "Grandpa, don't think about going back anymore, the eldest lady will knock you out again, and I'm afraid it won't be so easy to wake up the second time."
What Lao Fang said makes sense. Although she has a gentle temper, it is not easy to change the things she decides, at least Li Yi cannot change them.
The account with her will be settled after this matter has passed. How to survive the immediate crisis is the most important thing. Li Yi sat upright immediately and urged: "Go to Fucheng!"
After entering Fucheng, Li Yi didn't go back to Ruyifang, and he and Lao Fang went straight in the direction of Prince Ning's Mansion.
The only thing he can rely on now is Li Xuan's power.
The fast yamen servants of the county government are not enough to look at in front of those people. The guards of Prince Ning's Mansion are all very skilled and there are a lot of them. If they can borrow some, it will be a big restraint for those people.
"My lord, wait here for a while, I'll report to your lord right away."
The servants of Prince Ning's Mansion have a very good memory. At the last birthday banquet of the princess, Steward Wang was very polite to this son. Now of course he doesn't dare to neglect him. He politely asked Li Yi to wait here and ran in quickly. up.
"My lord, is that little boy really the little prince?" Lao Fang had already known Li Xuan's identity, but he still couldn't connect that unreliable boy with Prince Ning's son until now.
"That's right." Li Yi nodded.
Getting confirmation from Li Yi again, Lao Fang's hanging heart was finally relieved.
He didn't know how powerful the palace was, but those few guards who were familiar with him were all skilled. If there were more such people, they would be more confident in dealing with the mob.
"Sorry, the little prince is not here."
The servants went in and came out quickly, and said to Li Yi very apologetically.
"Not here?" Li Yi frowned and said, "Please inform me, I want to see the prince."
Li Yi had never dealt with King Ning. If he hadn't encountered a situation like today, he would never have taken the initiative to meet him in his life, but at this moment, he couldn't care less about it.
The servant still had a smile on his face, and said: "My lord, I'm really sorry, the prince is not in the mansion either."
The expression on Li Yi's face was startled, as if he understood something, he turned his head and glanced at Lao Fang, and said, "Let's go."
"Where are you going?"
Lao Fang was puzzled, why did my uncle leave before the person he was supposed to meet
"Pharmacy."
"What are you doing at the pharmacy?" Lao Fang was even more puzzled.
"Buy some arsenic, in case you can't beat them, so as not to be humiliated, you'd better take some medicine and kill yourself."
"..."
Seeing the disappearance of Li Yi and Lao Fang from a distance, the servant looked around, then returned to the palace, walked through several corridors, knocked on the door of a certain building, and after hearing the response, Push the door and go in.
"My lord, people have been sent away."
"I see, you go down first." A voice came from the table in the middle of the room, and the servant saluted respectfully, and then retreated slowly.
"Both your majesty and the princess seem to value this son very much, and the son has a very close relationship with him. Why..." An old voice came from the corner, and before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by King Ning with a wave of his hand.
Thinking of Li Xuan's recent changes, King Ning frowned, and said: "There are some crooked talents, but they still won't make it to the stage. If Xuan'er hangs out with him all day, I'm afraid the harm will outweigh the benefits..."
After King Ning spoke, there was no more sound from the corner of the study.
