As the sun passed through the atrium, the four gates of Taiyue City suddenly closed, catching people coming and going unprepared, and they all came forward to ask questions.
The Daqian Royal Forest Army, a hundred thousand strong, was guarding the capital. At this moment, the entire army was dispatched, moving in separate groups, and shuttled through Taiyue City.
Armor soldiers were displayed inside and outside the four gates; swords were at war on the city wall. The Royal Forest sergeants are all elites in the army, and among them there are many monks who have entered the Huiling Realm and the Qingyou Realm. They stand in front of people, making the people very afraid.
Beside the city gate, someone sent someone to post a notice, with a portrait of Ye Ling prominently painted on it, and the text next to it read: "Those who were ordered to hunt down the traitor Ye Ling, failed to report the information, and deliberately concealed it will be punished with the same crime!"
The people gathered around the notice. Although they didn't know who the wanted person was, they still came to join in the fun, pointing and talking.
In Taiyue City, groups of soldiers with strong armor were moving back and forth with such murderous intent that the people did not dare to move around at will and stayed away.
In the blink of an eye, the streets were quiet and deserted. Only the neat footsteps of soldiers could be heard in the houses, and each step touched people's hearts.
In a theater, the spectators were all restless and looking out. The boss wanted to stop Xie Lian'er on the stage, but the young man at the front waved his hand and said: "Don't move, keep singing!"
In the tavern, not a single customer dared to come to eat. The lame waiter and the fat cook were sitting at the table with nothing to do. The boss leaned against the door, cracking melon seeds and spitting out the skin with disgust: "Today's business is... It can’t be done again, what a world!”
Outside the gate of the imperial city, a group of people arrived, led by a veteran, with three strands of white beard floating on his chest, with a solemn expression, not angry but proud: "
The red-robed and golden-armored martial artist is mighty, in charge of the feather forest and protecting the crape myrtle.
The sword is brushed on the back and the snow is floating on the temples, and the horse is riding in the wind, showing its frosty eyebrows.
An ordinary soldier would care less about life and death in a hundred battles, but a hero on the battlefield would not be able to see the glory of the night.
I am willing to repay the king's eternal deeds. Whoever joins the army will ask if he will return. "
This person is Wei Beichen, the commander of the 100,000-strong imperial army in the capital and the general of Daqianfu.
Arriving in front of the imperial city gate, Wei Beichen got off his horse and stepped forward.
Eunuch Zhang Mo had been waiting here for a long time. He immediately stepped forward to greet him and said, "General Wei, your Majesty is waiting for you!"
"Please Eunuch Zhang lead the way."
"Old General please!"
The gate of the imperial city opened slowly, and after the two of them walked in, it closed suddenly.
…
Yaxiang's mansion is not as luxurious as other places, but it is just a small courtyard with three entrances near the street, named "Humble School Thatched Cottage".
Quiet bamboos and pink roses are planted in the small yard, filling the air with tranquility. Under the vines, Zuo Fengyuan was leaning on a recliner, holding a book and meditating.
Not long after, the door slowly opened, and a little maid carrying a basket walked in and said, "Master, what's going on today? The streets are full of soldiers. It seems that martial law has been enforced."
Zuo Fengyuan said without raising any eyebrows: "No one dares to break into our thatched cottage, don't worry."
The little maid smiled, feeling relieved that the master was here, turned around and went back to the house.
But after she entered the room, Zuo Fengyuan put down the book, stood up and said, "I just said no one dared to break in, and here comes the uninvited guest. What a face!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a person came out from behind the screen wall and saluted Zuo Fengyuan: "Mr. Ge!"
When Zuo Fengyuan saw that the person coming was Ye Ling, he waved his hand and said, "Sit down, come to the Three Treasures Hall if you have nothing to do. You don't have much time now, so if you have anything to say, just say it."
Ye Ling stepped forward without sitting down. He just took out the storage ring and handed it to Zuo Fengyuan: "Please take a look at this, Mr. Ge."
Zuo Fengyuan was puzzled and stretched out his hand to take it. After examining it with his spiritual consciousness, he said in a deep voice: "They are arresting you outside, right?"
Ye Ling nodded in disbelief, cupped his hands and said, "The person behind this incident is actually Baili Longteng. Please tell me, Mr. Ge, what should be done?"
Zuo Fengyuan returned the storage ring to Ye Ling and sighed: "This is a serious matter and I can't help you. You'd better leave Taiyue City."
When Ye Ling heard this, he turned around and left without stopping.
"Surviving life after death may seem dangerous, but it is the best hiding place!"
After Zuo Fengyuan finished speaking, Ye Ling disappeared. He leaned back on the recliner, but had no intention of reading any more. He patted his forehead with his hand, closed his eyes and lamented: "I have saved you after all. You said it is not good for you to harm anyone, so why do you want to harm me?"
While talking, the little maid came out and asked, "Who was the master talking to just now?"
"No one," Zuo Fengyuan stood up and said, "Go and take out my official uniform and wait for me to change my clothes."
"Master, didn't you take leave today? Why do you have to go out again?"
Zuo Fengyuan shook his head helplessly: "I can't get a moment of peace!"
While they were talking, someone came to visit from outside the gate: "Mr. Zuo Ge, Qiao Feng is here under orders. I have something to talk to Mr. Zuo Ge!"
Zuo Fengyuan sighed: "As soon as the front foot left, the back foot came."
…
It was the same as usual in the alley, and the sound of reading in the school was loud. It had just passed Chenshi, a time when the mind was clear.
Further ahead, there is Xu Guoguo's courtyard, but now the house is empty and there is no movement.
At the door next door, there were still shouts and curses:
"What sin did I commit in my last life? To end up with such a mother-in-law. It's true that good people don't get rewarded."
"This guy, no matter how old you are, you can't make people annoying. If you make people annoying, don't blame them for not taking care of you."
The neighbor passing by was not as disgusted as usual. Instead, he looked cheerful and said to himself: "You deserve it!"
It turned out that the person sitting at the door yelling and cursing was not Sai Da Chong, but her second daughter-in-law. Someone also gave her a nickname, "Da Hu Granny". Just hearing her name will tell you how fierce she is.
Sai Da Chong had two sons, the eldest son Li Sheng and the younger son Li Xiao. Li Sheng got married early and married his daughter-in-law Ruilian. He served her mother-in-law wholeheartedly and never fought back or scolded her. When I get tired of being scolded, I have to bring tea and water, rub my shoulders and beat my legs.
Who would have thought that not only would Sai Da Chong be unappreciative, but he would become even worse?
When Li Xiao decided to get married, Sai Da Chong kicked Li Sheng and his daughter-in-law Ruilian out: "Even if I die, I won't need to be supported by you two unfilial piety!"
Li Sheng and Ruilian had no choice but to rent a house on the other side of the town and did not dare to come back.
When Li Xiao marries his wife, the tiger-beating woman, things will change in the family. Sai Da Chong thought he could deal with Tiger Po like he dealt with Ruilian, but who knew she had met her nemesis.
As her name suggests, the Tiger Beater is not as good-tempered as Ruilian. If Sai Da Chong doesn't say a word, she will just scold her. In addition, the Tiger Beater is tall and powerful. How can the old lady be a match? , if you are afraid once, you will never be able to turn over in this life.
Just like this, the wind and water are changing, and the way of heaven is reincarnated. How Sai Da Chong treated Ruilian in the past, now Da Hu Po will treat Sai Da Chong the same way.
This morning, because Sai Da Chong got up late in the morning and didn't make breakfast, it was ruined. He made Tiger Beater sit at the door and curse all morning.
When it was noon, Sai Da Chong still had to wear an apron and walked to the door to ask: "My dear wife, this lunch is ready. You should have a rest and go back to eat!"
After hearing this, Tiger Beater stood up and walked into the house.
Sai Da Chong sighed: "What evil have I done!"
Not long after, there was a sound of smashing plates and bowls, and the tiger beater cursed at the top of her lungs: "You old loser, you can't even make a meal, why are you still alive? Die early, so as not to take up your son's life." !”
The neighbors heard it in their ears and felt happy in their hearts. This means that evil people will have their own trials and tribulations. Everyone knew how Sai Da Chong treated Ruilian back then. This time, no one sympathized with her, only applauded her.
Lying in bed at night, the more the tiger-beating woman thought about it, the angrier she became, so she said to Li Xiao: "I can tell you, until the old lady dies, our family will not be able to calm down!"
Hearing this, Li Xiao frowned and said, "My mother has a strong body, how can she die so easily?"
"I don't care, I can't live with her anyway, it's up to you!"
Li Xiao was a master who loved his wife, so he quickly got up and said: "We made an agreement when the family was separated. The eldest brother and the others have left the house, and all the family property will be given to us, and we will support our mother. How can we change our minds now? "
Madam Dahu lay down angrily, turned her face away and said, "Anyway, I can't let her waste our food. You don't care, I will do it myself!"
Li Xiao said helplessly: "Okay, okay, I just won't get involved."
There was nothing to say all night. The next morning, when the tiger-beater saw Sai Da Chong, she became so angry that she couldn't see him at all. She always felt that it was an eyesore.
"To leave such an old man in this family is really asking for trouble for myself."
Since he didn't want to look at her, Mrs. Tiger walked to the door, saw a group of soldiers passing by the door, and kicked open the door of Xu Guoguo next door.
Neighbors came out to watch, and an official asked, "Where did this family go?"
Someone then replied: "They went on a journey the day before yesterday. I don't know where they went. Sir, what's going on?"
"They are suspected of harboring felons from the imperial court, and we are ordered to arrest them!"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was in an uproar.
Who doesn't know that Xu Guo and his wife are good people, and they usually treat people well and live in harmony with their neighbors. I never thought I would get into this kind of thing.
But the tiger-beating woman standing in the crowd rolled her eyes and immediately took charge of her plan.
When everyone dispersed, she walked to the gate and said to the official: "My lord, I have a case report here."
"Oh?" When the official heard this, he asked: "What's the matter? Report it quickly!"
The tiger-beating woman then came up and whispered a few words to the official. The officer frowned and said, "But are you serious?"
Dahu Po said: "The slave family is doing this all for the sake of the imperial court, and they do not hesitate to take the risk of being implicated. Otherwise, how could I do such a righteous thing to kill my relatives?"
The official nodded repeatedly. He was in vain this time. He was afraid that it would be difficult to explain when he returned. It happened that a tiger-beating woman had complained, so he said: "If the situation is true, I guarantee that nothing will happen to you and your husband!"
"Thank you, sir!"
As he spoke, the official sent someone to the next door to catch the big bug. Sai Da Chong's face turned pale: "Why do you want to arrest me, an old woman?"
The officer said with a straight face: "You have a close friendship with the thief. You are going to be taken back and severely tortured. If your daughter-in-law hadn't reported it, you would have almost escaped and been taken away!"
Sai Da Chong looked at Da Hu Po with a look of disbelief on his face, and then he burst into tears and burst into tears: "This is all my own fault!"
After the officers and soldiers left, the tiger beater turned around and looked at the empty courtyard, her face full of joy: "It's better this time! It's clean."
