Not long after, the servants of the Princess Mansion brought out an old man.
Leng Lanzhi curled his lips and asked lightly: "Do you still remember this person?"
The old man's back is slightly curved, his head is full of white hair, his right leg is lame, and he is using a cane.
Seeing the old man, Shen Yizhi looked a little confused.
Before Shen Yizhi could remember the man's identity, the man knelt down with a thud: "I've seen the consort, my name is Cheng San'er, and I once worked as a long-term laborer in the village of Pingnan Marquis Mansion!"
He looked up at Shen Yizhi, his eyes full of hatred: "The consort may not remember me, but the attendant named Abei and the steward of your mansion will definitely remember me."
Shen Yizhi's expression changed.
Zhuangzi!
Seeing his change of expression, Leng Lanzhi smiled with satisfaction: "Go on."
So Cheng Saner came and talked.
About seven years ago, they, the long-term workers, were working in the village. The steward suddenly led a young man in to select people, saying that he had good jobs to be assigned to them.
At that time, four long-term workers in Zhuangzi who had signed a twenty-year contract were selected to do the so-called "good job" - to work on the cliffs of a canyon not far from Zhuangzi.
Cheng Saner is one of them.
These long-term workers arranged a huge boulder - as long as the ground shakes too much or touches a certain mechanism, the boulder will easily roll down.
All traces of human activity were removed from the scene.
The long-term workers did not know the significance of these arrangements, and the attendant named Abei did not tell them.
But these long-term workers don’t care. They don’t care about their boss’s foresight. They only care about how much they can get paid for this “good job”.
After the work was completed, they went to a dense forest under Abei's arrangement, preparing to eat some dry food to replenish their strength, rest for a while before returning to Zhuangzi.
Abei very considerately prepared delicious meat buns and roast chicken for them.
Cheng Saner has seven children in his family. He couldn't bear to eat those hot and fragrant steamed buns, and he couldn't bear to eat the oily, watery, burnt and fragrant roast chicken. He thought of taking it back to give the children a toothpaste, so he gave it to Abei. Things were packed up and he only ate the coarse grain cakes he had brought.
While eating, he suddenly had a stomachache, so he went to solve the physical problem.
When he returned to the eating place, he found that his three companions were lying on the ground, and the boy named Abei was wiping the neck of one of his companions!
Cheng Saner was so frightened that he turned around and ran away without thinking.
Abei heard the noise and chased after him.
In the end, Cheng Saner fell off the cliff, but luckily he survived and only broke one leg.
After waking up, he didn't dare to go home and wandered outside for several years. It wasn't until he felt that the big shots back then had forgotten him that he dared to drag his broken body back.
However, his family members told him that people from Pingnanhou Mansion had come to look for him several times, and their explanation for his disappearance was that there were thieves in Zhuangzi, and he was kidnapped by the thieves. His whereabouts and life or death are unknown.
He also told his family and people in the village that once he was found, they must notify the Pingnan Hou Mansion as soon as possible, so that the Hou Mansion could give him rewards in time.
Fortunately, Cheng Saner was very defensive and returned home in the dark. Otherwise, if he was seen by people in the village, the consequences would be disastrous.
However, he completely lost the opportunity to appear in front of others openly. From that day on, he only dared to hide in the mountains near the village, not daring to let the people in the village discover him.
Later, his sons secretly inquired about the situation of the other three long-term workers, and learned that the three were buried with honor and dignity in the name of "defending the master's family and dying heroically," and the family also received a large sum of money in compensation.
After Cheng San'er finished speaking, tears flowed down his face, and he looked at Shen Yizhi with eyes full of hatred: "I personally heard the attendant named A Bei say, 'Don't blame me for being cruel, but blame you for knowing it. Knowing the secret will become a stumbling block on the young master's path!
The only young master Abei mentioned was the heir apparent of Pingnanhou Mansion at that time, and you are the current consort! "
Everyone was in an uproar!
No one expected that the charming, talented and caring consort would turn out to be such a sanctimonious executioner.
However, some people expressed confusion: "But, what does this matter have to do with the princess? The prince-in-law is a scumbag, and there is no conflict with the princess destroying other people's feelings."
This sound was also very abrupt in the noisy crowd. Leng Lanzhi glanced in the direction of the sound, and quickly looked away. The clear and sweet sound was like the sound of a piano, and the crowd calmed down unconsciously, listening to She speaks.
"Seven years ago, I went out for an outing. When I passed a canyon, I saw an injured rabbit lying on the roadside. I felt soft-hearted, so I stopped the carriage and got out of the car to check the rabbit's condition myself. situation.
At this moment, the boulder on the cliff rolled down. "
She paused.
The crowd fell silent with her voice, and their hearts lifted high.
Everyone seemed to have seen that scene - the graceful and kind-hearted girl wanted to save the injured rabbit on the roadside.
Unexpectedly, huge rocks fell from the sky, casting a huge haze on the girl's life.
Everyone was eager to hear the results.
The result is obvious - the girl is fine and is standing here properly now.
Leng Lanzhi didn't give in. "At the critical moment, the prince consort of Pingnanhou Mansion jumped out from the side path and rescued me from under the boulder."
The crowd of onlookers was in an uproar again.
It turns out that the consort is waiting here!
Who can withstand this well-designed heroic rescue of beauty?
At least, Leng Lanzhi couldn't hold it back at that time.
She said slowly: "I already have a good impression of the Prince Consort. With the blessing of saving my life, this good feeling is even more profound than words can express."
Shen Yizhi's eyes darkened: "First of all, I have never calculated anything against the princess!"
"Secondly, this matter has nothing to do with me repeatedly rejecting the princess, but the princess insisted on marrying me and asked the saints to grant me a marriage!"
Lenglan's eyes sneered: "Is it really irrelevant?"
Shen Yizhi was still about to quibble, but Leng Lanzhi clapped his hands: "Come here, let the consort give up."
After saying this, the door of the princess mansion opened again, and two more servants led a person out.
Seeing that man, the onlookers looked confused and couldn't help but put their heads together in groups to discuss.
Shen Yizhi's expression completely changed.
Obviously, although he had no impression of Cheng San'er, he did have an impression of the person who came out behind him.
Leng Lanzhi smiled lightly.
It's a good impression.
He can't take everything cleanly and leave the stigma to others, right?
