The trial of Wang Baobao was very harsh and almost cost him half his life.
Tamerlane kept scolding them, but his lute bone was pierced and his teeth were pulled out. If they continued to curse, they said they would pull out Timur's tongue.
Someone from the court came and read out Wang Baobao's charges and wanted to kill his nine tribes.
The good news is that Nai Lu's family didn't catch it.
However, in this icy and snowy environment, it is easy to leave traces and get into trouble.
He could only hope in his heart that Nai Lu and his family could escape smoothly.
He no longer has hope for Meng Yuan.
Although, he doesn't think he did anything wrong.
He looked at his younger brother and his family not far away, and realized that he had caused them trouble.
But the morality in his heart told him that he had done nothing wrong.
But if he could do it all over again, he would put his morality and loyalty second, and the safety of his family first.
For three or four days in a row, he had been pushed to the limit. The exhaustion made him want to commit suicide.
But if he commits suicide, they will threaten him with the lives of his family members and even humiliate his wives and concubines in front of him.
That kind of torture made Wang Baobao resentful.
This resentment gradually transferred from the people in Tianlao to the emperor, and then to Meng Yuan.
If it hadn't been for him, Meng Yuan would have been gone long ago, and he might have fled back to his hometown in Mobei.
But now, not only did he not get the respect he deserved, but he became a prisoner and a traitor.
The imperial edict said that he would be beheaded on the day before New Year's Eve, and he should be used to entertain the people of Yingchang.
If he confessed, his wife, children, and grandchildren would still be alive.
For Wang Baobao, it would be better to die than to let them live in pain and humiliation.
This pain lasted until the night before beheading.
He was groggy and extremely weak.
With a loud noise, the entire prison trembled.
Immediately afterwards, a group of people appeared from nowhere. These people rushed into the prison and rushed towards him.
Wang Baobao tried his best to open his eyes, trying to see these people clearly. Unfortunately, the prison was too dark, and he only knew that he was being taken away by these people.
Because he was too weak, he passed out.
When he woke up again, it was already three days later.
He is not dead!
Saved!
The man who was rescued said that he was a subordinate of King Wu.
The man didn't tell him his name, but said he would escort them to Daye.
"Why save us?"
"His Highness said that if you follow Meng Yuan's path, something will happen sooner or later, so let us guard Yingchang."
"Did you disclose the letter to the court?" Wang Baobao asked angrily.
"People from the East and West factories have been targeting you for a long time. There are some of their people in the smuggling caravan!"
"Then why didn't you remind..." Wang Baobao was stunned. Why should they remind themselves?
Before that, they were enemies rather than friends!
He smiled bitterly. These people saved his family, and they even arranged for Nai Donkey to escape.
What qualifications do you have to ask?
Even if his brother-in-law, whom he has never met, is indeed a little scheming, so what?
He has lost the emperor's trust, and the butcher's knife will fall on him sooner or later.
"Thank you for saving our family!" Wang Baobao said with a cupped hand: "Thank you for your kindness, and you will be rewarded in the future!"
"This is our duty!" The man always wore a mask on his face, making it difficult for people to see his whole face. "I can only send you here. There will be a caravan tomorrow. Then, you can follow the caravan. The team will leave, and when they arrive at Beiping Mansion, they will leave by boat, and someone will make arrangements!"
"Thank you!"
.......
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the entire Fengyang City was still immersed in the rich flavor of the New Year.
For the people of Fengyang, this year is the best year in the past ten years.
They have emerged from the shadow of the disaster, and everyone's life is back on track.
Whether they are people in the city or folks outside the city, every policy is helping them.
There has been a letter from the court, and the emperor will come to inspect after the new year, so everyone is working hard to make Fengyang better.
Zhu Jun also has a lot of leisure these days. He just waits for Lao Zhu to inspect and confirm the matter of moving the capital. This bet will be completed and he can stay in the capital and continue his plans in the future.
On this day, he took a group of beautiful wives and concubines on a parade on the streets.
There were many people, and with his familiar face, there were too many people in Zhongdu who knew him.
To avoid unnecessary trouble, he sat in a specially made carriage and watched the bustling streets.
This woman Xu Miaojin seems to be possessed by a demon.
Ever since I came back from the capital, I have been clinging to him every day.
Hugging each other, he couldn't figure out what this woman was thinking for a while.
No, on today's outing, I did it next to him, holding his arm, like a pendant, so sticky.
"Okay, can you give me some space?" Zhu Jun tried hard to pull his hand out, but the woman's hand was no weaker than his.
"I want to go for a walk, can you accompany me?" Xu Miaojin went from resisting at the beginning to becoming familiar with the road now. Who knows what she has gone through.
Bi Luo also helped her, so she was completely willing to do anything.
"Okay, okay, stop hugging me all the time!" Zhu Jun looked disgusted, "Are you completely blackmailing me?"
"You are my man. If I don't blackmail you, who can I blackmail?"
There was nothing wrong with what he said, and Zhu Jun lost all his temper.
Sometimes he wanted to get angry, but this woman stopped being stubborn with him, showed a pitiful expression, and even pinched his legs and slapped his back obediently, but he couldn't get angry even if he wanted to.
Tang Xiuling looked at Xu Miaojin with a half-smile.
Guanyin slave and Tang Xiuling looked at each other and said: "There are many people outside, so we won't go down!"
"Well, there are indeed a lot of people on the street, so you should stay in the car!" Zhu Jun was also afraid that they would be crowded, so he immediately opened the car door and got out of the car with Xu Miaojin, Tang Xiuling and several other concubines who were not pregnant.
The newly built commercial street in Fengyang is located in the new Shififang District.
Extraordinary prosperity.
Fumin Supermarket is also open here.
Every day there was a lot of gold, and a large amount of copper coins and cash were moved into the palace every day.
After walking around for two times, Zhu Jun was not in the mood anymore because there were too many people.
Xu Miaojin was really enjoying it. After all, this was the first time she and Zhu Jun traveled together.
She bought a bunch of candied haws, took a bite, and immediately handed it to Zhu Jun's mouth, "You want to try it too!"
Zhu Jun was not surprised by this kind of intimate behavior. If he didn't eat it, this woman would definitely pester him.
He took a bite and it tasted really good.
However, he felt strange in his heart, always feeling that he had been tricked by Xu Miaojin.
Not only that, he hasn't pampered anyone else for several days.
"Are you bowing to me?" Zhu Jun whispered in her ear: "We agreed to treat each other as guests, but you actually want to sleep with me?"
