Yichen was speechless. He waited until he was sure that there were no more pursuers, then let her go, "You woman, you have so many things to do."
"Ugh, sir, didn't the girl say that you should watch and lead people, and then take them with you? Why don't you lead anyone..." Xiao Yi said intermittently while vomiting.
Yichen shrugged confidently, "With such a small thing like you, why do you need to bring someone with you?"
"But, I think Brother Ayong is most likely in the City Lord's Mansion, because people from the City Lord's Mansion have threatened them several times..."
Yichen's lips twitched, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? This trip was in vain!"
Xiao Yi patted her belly, "Young master said, start looking from the nearest place..."
"You really have a lot to do!"
"..."
After stumbling for a long time, it was not until midnight that Yichen finally brought Xiao Yi back to the city.
Xiao Yi couldn't vomit anything anymore, she just felt dizzy.
It’s the first time I know that people’s light functions are so fast...
Are you sure this can't fly?
After struggling for a long time, they finally arrived near the city lord's palace.
The City Lord's Mansion is different from the county government office. The guards here are obviously tighter. There are many people guarding both the front and back doors, and there are people patrolling the mansion from time to time.
Yichen picked up Xiaoyi and jumped to the roof.
"You can't scream anymore in this place. If you scream again, I will leave you here and go back."
Xiao Yi's face darkened, "Sir, the girl's order..."
"My girl is definitely looking towards me, so be careful and keep your mouth shut."
Xiao Yi immediately covered her mouth, not daring to make any sound.
Yichen added: "If I really find your fiancé later, the most I can do is run away with him, not both of you. Otherwise, you will definitely be caught, so you have to hide first." Okay, after you hide, I will take your fiancé away first, and then come back to pick you up later."
Xiao Yi nodded blankly.
In fact, what she wanted to say was: wouldn't it be fine if we brought a few more people?
But she didn't dare to say anything at this time, so she could only stay quietly on the roof.
After all, this young master looks quite arrogant.
The surroundings were quiet at night, and just when Yichen was about to take Xiaoyi onward, a middle-aged man's voice suddenly came from below.
"How could there be a flood in this beautiful and sunny place? How many years have there been no floods?"
"It's the city lord..." Xiao Yi whispered on the roof, and then added: "This is the city lord's voice..."
Just as he was shocked, another man added: "Although it hasn't rained here, I heard that the heavy rain has not stopped in the upper reaches of the river. In this case, it is not surprising that there will be floods. At this moment, disaster relief personnel have been sent out. , it happened that the prince and the others were passing by there, so there didn’t seem to be any major casualties..."
After a pause, the man continued: "I heard that before the flood came this time, the real princess notified many villagers in advance to go up the mountain to escape. During this period, she also saved the lives of many villagers. Now she is called a fairy by the villagers. Very impressive!"
After the words fell, the city lord's voice sounded again.
"A fairy? A little girl is actually called a fairy? How can she deserve it? Isn't she using some means to deliberately give herself a good name?"
Another man said softly: "I don't know, but the order from above is for us to ruin her reputation as much as possible. Now, she has become a fairy among the villagers. If this spreads back to the capital, the higher-ups will not blame her. alright."
Hearing the people below talking about Liu Shengsheng, Yichen had stopped and carefully removed a piece of tile.
Lying on the roof and looking down, I saw that the lobby of the City Lord's Mansion was below.
And the city lord who returned to the city was sitting on the main seat, with a sad look on his face.
In front of him, a bearded man said seriously: "Otherwise we will use
Do you have any means to get the villagers to change their names from gods to witches? "
"Oh, do you think the villagers are all fools? Can they change their tune with just a few words?"
Long Beard whispered: "But this so-called true princess just passed there, and there was a flood there. Even if she is a witch, it can be explained, right?"
Upon hearing this, the city lord's eyes suddenly widened.
"Your words seem to make sense..."
"Hahaha, the smaller the place, the more feudal and superstitious it is. As long as you bribe a few gentlemen to go to various countryside to talk nonsense, people will be convinced that the witch caused floods. As long as this name is publicized If you get out, it won’t be long before the true princess’s reputation is completely ruined.”
The bearded man said with a proud smile:
"Anyway, people never care about the truth or falsehood of things. They only care about whether the development of things will be more interesting. When the news gets out, some people will add fuel to the fire and envy us. Even if the flood has nothing to do with her, she will definitely be blamed in the end. On her head, if this happens, let alone destroying her reputation, it is very possible to even drive her out of the country."
The city lord nodded lightly, "This is a good idea. If things come true, the Sixth Princess will definitely be rewarded heavily."
After a pause, he said worriedly: "But will they discover this?"
"We didn't do anything to them, at most we just spread some rumors, and when the time comes, we will ask our cronies to go down and find some beggars and the like to spread the rumors, and then spend some money to find some talkative ladies, as long as the people who tell If there are too many, we won’t be traced!”
The bearded man said without fear, smiled again, and continued:
"Hahaha, who doesn't know that the Sixth Princess is the favorite of the princes? Although the Sixth Princess is a fake princess, she grew up in the palace after all. She has the power at hand, the cronies around her, and the relationship with several princes. Relationships are incomparable to this true princess."
"Before the real princess returns to the capital, we must stand in line. In this way, when the sixth princess has the upper hand, we can follow the sixth princess and enjoy the good life."
"It's okay even if it doesn't work out in the future. Anyway, there are so many people helping the Sixth Princess to do things, and we're not the only ones. Even if the Sixth Princess falls, it's impossible to pull out people as remote as us, as long as it's something that hasn't been discovered. , even the Sixth Princess can’t recruit us on her own..."
After hearing these words, the city lord nodded repeatedly.
"That makes sense, just do as you say."
"..."
The two people below kept talking without stopping, but Yichen on the roof frowned angrily.
"Damn counterfeit, I thought the previous lessons were enough to scare her, but I didn't expect this trick. If I hadn't come here today, I wouldn't have known she had done something like this. It's really despicable!"
As he said that, he got up and said, "I have to tell my girl the news as soon as possible!"
Xiao Yi quickly grabbed him, "Sir, aren't we going to save Brother Ayong..."
