Chapter 113 The Black-Belly Couple
The air is silent.
I didn't hear a reply for a long time.
Liu Yu glanced at Yang Shizhong who was stubborn and refused to bow his head, and suddenly said:
"Third Master, don't force Lord Yang." He winked at Third Master Chen.
Master Chen San nodded, slammed the bowl in his hand on the worn-out table, and said to Yang Zhongshi very seriously: "Master Yang, although you helped us, you also know our current situation. For the safety of all of us, I can't let you leave. You can only stay here with us."
Look! Look!
His intuition was right, he had fallen into the hands of this couple.
Now, three or four groups of people in the capital are looking for Mr. Chen San. Once he is found, will his fate be good?
At the very least, you’ll lose your job, at worst, you’ll lose your life!
It seems that I have to agree to it even if I don't agree.
Compared to staying here, returning to the capital to help Mr. Chen San to meet the Imperial Family would have a greater chance of success. After all, the Imperial Family only ordered the person to be brought back, did not directly sentence the person, and let the Chen family go.
Does this mean that the Tian family didn't really want to deal with Mr. Chen San, but were forced to do so by the situation at the time?
Yang Shizhong could only comfort himself in this way.
His face looked as ugly as if he had eaten shit: "Okay, I promise to introduce you to the heavenly family, but you must not plot against me anymore."
"Of course, we are all working for the Heavenly Family. The Zhou Clan will not force you anymore."
"Okay, then I'll go back to the city to make arrangements now?"
Master Chen San nodded and warned: "Be careful of Zhang Lianci's people."
Yang Shizhong stood up, saluted, and walked out, leaving the dilapidated courtyard.
Watching him leave, Master Chen Wu asked worriedly:
"Third brother, are you just going to let him go? Do you want me to send someone to follow him?"
Mr. Chen Sanye and Liu Yu looked at each other and understood the deep meaning in each other's eyes.
"No need. Yang Shizhong will do what he promised. He would never betray others." Master Chen San said firmly.
Master Chen Wu has always believed in what Master Chen San said.
But it doesn't represent others, Mr. He said anxiously:
"Master Chen, I think we should send someone to follow you. No one can guarantee that people's hearts will not change under the temptation of interests."
"I feel so too."
"Me too…"
"..."
Others echoed.
Mr. Chen San wanted to say something, but Liu Yu stopped him. She turned around and smiled and said to everyone:
"It's too risky for people from your place to go into the city. It's easy for people to follow the clues and bring them here. So, I'll let Grandma Kui follow us, and you can rest assured!" He then instructed Grandma Kui beside him to follow Yang Shizhong.
Granny Aoi immediately chased after her.
Upon seeing this, everyone stopped talking and dispersed. Even Master Chen Wu and Feng Xiao stayed far away, intentionally leaving space for the two of them.
Master Chen San and Liu Yu walked back into the house. He said calmly, "Call Grandma Kui back when we get back to the city."
Liu Yu saw the worry in his eyes, she thought for a moment and said:
"If you are really worried, I will go back to Pingnan Marquis Mansion and borrow Xiao Liu for two days?"
"Xiao Liu?" Mr. Chen San didn't react for a moment to who Liu Yu was talking about.
"Don't you remember one of the girls that was given to me along with Granny Aoi?"
Mr. Chen Sanye remembered it and had no objection to it.
The firewood in the house was burning with a crackling sound. The two of them stopped talking. The atmosphere suddenly became ambiguous. The words they said on the eve of their separation seemed like what happened yesterday. Their faces quickly turned red.
Looking at the girl beside him, in the light of the fire, not only were her cheeks as red as apples, but her neck was also pink, making her look even more charming. Master Chen San just felt his mouth dry.
Liu Yu felt extremely embarrassed. She tried hard to get rid of the shameful words in her mind and looked at the sky outside. It was indeed getting late.
Mr. Chen San followed her line of sight and also looked out the window. He knew that this was not a good time and that she couldn't stay here for too long, as it would only drag her in, which he absolutely would not allow. Even though he was reluctant, he had to let her go.
"Yu'er, I'll let Feng Xiao take you back to the city." He stood up and called Feng Xiao.
……
Beijing, north gate.
Through the crowd, Yang Shizhong saw several eye-catching portraits on the city wall, and his heart began to beat fast.
"Provide information and you will be rewarded with 10,000 taels of silver."
"Who is this?"
"Cabinet Chen Zhihe."
"So high? If only I had some news about them, I could redeem my land..."
Listening to the people's discussions,
Yang Shizhong was walking towards the city, feeling quite unbalanced. He was thinking, why not just go and take down the yellow list? It would be better than living in fear all the time.
Just as he was struggling, a group of people came out of the city and blocked his way.
"Yang Shizhong?" Feng Bu's majestic and low voice came from the head.
Yang Shizhong's pupils suddenly contracted, and after he reacted, he forced a smile, looked up at the person who came, and bowed with both hands:
"Lord Feng, are you going out of town?"
Feng hummed indifferently. In his eyes, Yang Shizhong was just a stone in a toilet, hard and smelly. He didn't have a good impression of Yang Shizhong, let alone a good face.
If there hadn't been an accident, and it was Yang Shizhong who went to Lingnan, how could such a big thing have happened?
Feng Bu snorted coldly, glanced at Yang Shizhong with contempt, and was about to leave.
He seemed to have thought of something and called out to Yang Shizhong who was walking towards the city:
"stop!"
Yang Shizhong's heart skipped a beat. He looked at Feng Bu who had already walked in front of him and asked nervously:
"Sir Feng, what do you want from me?"
"Yang Shizhong, what do you think of what Chen Zhihe did in Lingnan?"
Yang Shizhong was not stupid, and knew that Feng Bu had something else in mind. He suppressed the smile on his face and asked, "Why don't you just say it if you have something to say?"
"Alright." Feng Bu nodded: "Since you have rejected both sides, I hope you will keep it this time. Chen Zhihe went to Lingnan because of the order from the Heavenly Family. Don't feel that you owe him and help him. If you become our enemy, you will end up miserably."
Now all the people in Zhou Zheng are under their surveillance. The biggest possibility for Chen Zhihe is to find these hard-core officials caught in the middle of the central government, officials outside the two factions.
He wants to prevent future troubles.
As long as Chen Zhihe doesn't meet the Tian family and Zhou Zheng, he will definitely not be able to achieve anything. The loss to Chen Zhihe is undoubtedly like cutting off one of Zhou Zheng's arms, which is a big step towards success for what they are going to do later.
Seeing Yang Shizhong frowning and looking very conflicted, Feng did not think that Yang Shizhong was singing a different tune from him, and felt even more disgusted with Yang Shizhong's disrespect.
Feng Bu took two steps forward, stared at Yang Shizhong and asked:
"You don't agree? Or have you already helped Chen Zhihe?"
The extreme pressure was pressing on Yang Shizhong's head, and cold sweat broke out on his body.
Didn't Feng notice something? Or guess something?
Should he give out Chen Sanye? He doesn't want to die yet!
