"What happened?"
asked the papermaker.
Ye Qing did not answer directly, but said to the papermaker: "Mr. Zhang, please bring Fang Sishou and Gu Sishou over. When they arrive, I will talk to you together."
"Yes, sir." The papermaker turned and left without asking any further questions.
After a while, the papermaker brought Fang Xiaoman, Gu Suitang and others to the place. Seeing Ye Qing's solemn expression, they couldn't help but ask, "Wu Huan, what happened?"
"It's like this..." Ye Qing didn't hide anything, and told Fang Xiaoman, Gu Suitang and others about the fact that Fang Zhiyong had arrested their family members, Yaya, and Kung Fu Frog in order to deal with him.
"What did you say? Fang Zhiyong arrested our family members to threaten you?"
After listening to Ye Qing's story, Gu Suitang was stunned at first: "If he wants to arrest him, he will also arrest us. What does our family have to do with this matter? Is he sick?"
"I'm afraid Fang Zhiyong has already taken action against us."
Fang Xiaoman figured out the connection at once: "The Yin Chariot incident is probably a trap set by Fang Zhiyong for Wu Huan by using us."
"That's right." Ye Qing replied: "He originally wanted to use the Yin Chariot to kill us, but he failed, so he took this strategy."
Lin Yuhuai said angrily: "In vain, Fang Zhiyong, who is a saintly person and a role model for scholars in the world, actually does such a despicable and shameless thing? It is really a shame for scholars and a shame for our country of Chu!"
"I should have thought that old man was not a good person. What a good person he would be if he could teach a sanctimonious person like Fang Muyun."
Chu Nianjiu trampled the bluestone in the courtyard to pieces: "Let's go to the Imperial Capital, find the boss and the emperor, and ask the boss and the emperor to uphold justice for us?"
Lin Yuhuai agreed: "Yes, Fang Zhiyong ignored the law and acted wantonly. We go to the Imperial Capital to seek justice and an explanation."
"It's not that simple." Gu Suitang shook his head and said, "Fang Zhiyong, an old man, is always cautious in his actions and will never act before planning. He will never give us the opportunity to go to the Imperial Capital to file a complaint!"
"That's right." Ye Qing smiled bitterly: "Have you forgotten my identity? I am a wanted criminal in Chu State!"
"As an official of the Chu State, you are with me, a wanted criminal. First of all, you have disobeyed the emperor's order and violated the law. He can arrest your family members openly. Even if you sue the emperor, Fang Zhiyong will be justified. There is nothing you can do about it."
"Wanted criminal? Fang Muyun, Chu Wangsun, they want to kill you. If you kill them, they are entirely responsible for it. You are innocent, and the whole world knows this!" Chu Nianjiu said angrily.
"Yes, the whole world knows it."
Ye Qing said helplessly: "But, in the eyes of Chu State, in the court, and in the eyes of the people of Chu State, I am a wanted criminal, and I am the evil spirit who killed Chu State's geniuses, and you are violating the laws of Chu State by being with me. , disobeyed the emperor’s order.”
"This old fox, it seems that everything was planned by him." Fang Xiaoman, a good old man, couldn't help but curse.
Fang Zhiyong used them as bait to lure Ye Qing to come.
If Ye Qing can't save them, then they will die together and it will be over.
If they were not dead, then they would have become those who disobeyed the emperor's orders and colluded with evil spirits.
Fang Zhiyong can use this to cause trouble, continue to plot against Ye Qing, and become invincible.
One link after another, one plan after another, no strategy left behind, extremely powerful.
"This won't work, that won't work either, so what should I do?" Chu Nianjiu said anxiously, "Are we just going to watch my father and mother die?"
"Don't worry, this happened because of me, and I will save them."
Ye Qing patted Chu Nianjiu on the shoulder, looked at Fang Xiaoman, Gu Suitang and others and said, "I promise that nothing will happen to them."
"I don't blame you for this. It's all that old man's fault."
Gu Suitang said: "The top priority is to find a way to save people first."
Ye Qing said: "I have a way to save them."
"What can you do?" Fang Xiaoman said thoughtfully: "Wu Huan, did you agree to Fang Zhi's request?"
What are the conditions? "
Ye Qing did not hide anything and spoke out his agreement with Fang Zhiyong: "I made an agreement with Fang Zhiyong that as long as I go to the Imperial Capital, he will let your family and Yaya go."
"Are you crazy if you go to the Imperial Capital?"
Gu Suitang frowned and said, "Fang Zhiyong dares to let you go to the Imperial Capital. He must have set up a dragnet in the Imperial Capital. If you go, you will be seeking your own death."
"That's right." Fang Xiaoman said, "We definitely want to save people, but we have to take a long-term approach and act rashly. Not only will we not be able to save people, we will only lose our lives in vain."
"Wu Huan, don't be impulsive."
"The Chief is relieved. Since I dare to agree to Fang Zhiyong, I am sure of it."
Ye Qing smiled and said: "I will not joke with my own life."
"Secretary Fang, Chief Gu, Nianjiu, Yu Huai, I am no longer the original me, and I am no longer the Wu Huan who needs your protection, but the mad king. In the battle of Donghua, I defeated all the heroes in the world and planned to kill. The mad king of saints."
"It's just the Imperial Capital, it's just Fang Zhiyong, what do they mean?"
Ye Qing's voice was calm and confident, resolute and thick, like the mountains and the earth, making people convinced and reassured.
Fang Xiaoman, Gu Suitang and others were originally anxious, anxious, worried and angry, but after Ye Qing's words, they slowly calmed down.
"Wu Huan, are you really sure?" Gu Suitang was still worried: "Didn't you lie to us?"
"Who am I, Gu Sishou, you still don't know?" Ye Qing said with a smile: "I cherish my life the most, and I will never make fun of my own life."
"Okay, Commander, you have just come out of Xudu City. Go and rest first. After I make arrangements, you can go rescue people."
"How can I still sleep at this time? Wu Huan, what plan do you have for us..." Chu Nianjiu said eagerly.
But before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Fang Xiaoman: "Nianjiu, listen to Wu Huan's words, and rest. I want to save people, but I'm not in a hurry at this moment."
Immediately, Fang Xiaoman looked at Ye Qing: "Wu Huan, no matter what you want to do or how to do it, just do it. Whatever you want us to do, just tell us, but the most important thing is, don't take risks and don't die."
"If you die, Fang Zhiyong will never let us go, let alone our family. As long as you are alive, there is hope for everything."
Although he is also anxious, he also knows that now is not the time to be anxious, and to be honest, with their strength, they can't help at all. The only one they can trust now is Ye Qing, and the only one they can rely on is Ye Qing. With only Ye Qing, all they could do was try not to cause any trouble to Ye Qing.
"Thanks for the heads up, I know." Ye Qing bowed his hand to Fang Xiaoman.
"Okay, let's go and rest first. Wu Huan, just let us know if you have anything." Fang Xiaoman and Gu Suitang nodded to Ye Qing and turned to leave.
After a few people left, Ye Qing said to the papermaker: "Mr. Zhang, please protect them."
"Young master, are you worried that Fang Zhiyong will take action against them?" the papermaker asked.
"You have to be on guard!" Ye Qing rubbed his brows tiredly.
"Yes. Master."
Seeing that Ye Qing was a little tired, the papermaker turned and left without saying anything.
With Ye Qing's strength, he would not feel tired even if he stayed awake for several months. The reason for this was of course because of Fang Zhiyong's incident.
He could feel that Ye Qing was annoyed and confused. At this time, it was best not to say anything or do anything, and let Ye Qing stay alone for a while to calm down.
Therefore, the papermaker said nothing and turned around silently and left.
