Hello Chang’an

Chapter 7 It’s impossible to escape madness

The burning torches turned the entire Zhoujia Village as bright as day.

"Li Zheng, where do these official servants come from?" a villager asked anxiously.

Looking at the officers and soldiers who had surrounded the entire village, Li Zheng's face became panicked: "This doesn't look like an official from our Hezhou...!"

He had never seen the uniforms of those officers and soldiers, but he felt that they were all cold and inviolable.

"Search every house, and no household can be left behind!"

Soon, everything fell into unprecedented chaos.

Dogs bark, cry, beg for mercy, identify, curse, all mixed together.

The woman, who was hiding behind the courtyard door with her daughter in her arms, looked at the firelight with wide eyes, as if she had glimpsed the dawn.

…

As the sky was getting brighter, all the family members of the Governor's Mansion in Hezhou City were awakened from their sleep.

"Why are you shouting so early in the morning? You are crying in mourning!"

The fat man stood up and sat on the edge of the couch and cursed.

"Mr. Lang, something serious has happened...!"

The man glared at the young man who spoke: "What big thing could happen!"

This is Hezhou!

His father is the governor of Hezhou!

The boy said in a trembling voice: "Jingzhong...it's someone from Jingzhong!"

The man frowned, stood up and put on his clothes: "So what if there are people coming from the capital? My father is not alone in the capital!"

…

Zhao Fu, the governor of Hezhou, was walking quickly to the front yard.

He didn't know that an imperial envoy from the imperial court had come to Hezhou!

And quietly traced him through the business in Zhoujiacun, and led people to surround his house before dawn!

If the others were okay, at least he wouldn't be unaware of it at all, but the other party started from Zhoujiacun, leaving him no room to react!

"Master, there is no need to panic. If you bite him to death, you will not recognize him..." the staff on the side whispered as they walked.

"I know what I know, but I still need to send a message to the capital as soon as possible!" Zhao Fu forced himself to calm down: "I have been with him for many years, and we are in the same boat... He will never ignore death!"

As he spoke, he suddenly asked: "By the way, do you know who the imperial envoy is?"

"This is still unclear. It has been kept secret and not even a trace has been spread..."

As he spoke, he arrived at the front yard.

Outside the gate of the mansion, two groups of guards with swords on their waists walked in quickly. Between the two groups of sergeants, a tall figure walked towards them.

The young man wore a wide-sleeved cloak and strolled in with his hands behind his back. His profound eyebrows seemed to be stained by the cold spring air in the morning. When he spoke, his tone was casual and leisurely: "Long time no see, Governor Zhao."

The moment he saw the other person's face clearly, Zhao Fu paused, the color on his face faded, and his lips moved a few times: "Wei..."

This is the person who came!

…

Something happened in the Governor's Mansion, which soon caused a sensation.

In the morning, not long after the inn opened, many people gathered in the hall, chattering and looking surprised.

After getting up early and washing up, the girl who had been practicing morning exercises in her room for half an hour heard the sound and opened the door and walked out.

"Lang Jun... you're up!" The boy standing in front of the fence looked towards the hall downstairs when he heard the sound of the door opening. He turned around and said with surprise: "They are talking about Zhoujia Village and the Governor's Mansion. !”

The girl came to the fence and lowered her eyes to look at the lobby.

"The whole Zhoujia Village is actually full of flower photographers! I heard that there were more than ten rescued just last night!"

"Many unknown corpses were also dug up..."

"Fortunately, the imperial court sent an imperial envoy here, otherwise I don't know how many there would have been..."

"Wait, wait, why didn't I understand? What does the incident in Zhoujiacun you are talking about have to do with the raids and questioning of the governor's office? Could it be -"

"Why don't you tell me! - The people in Zhoujia Village are full of evildoers, but they have never been exposed at all. They are just being secretly protected by the Governor's Office!"

"This Governor Zhao... as a parent and official, how could he do such an unscrupulous act!" Someone slammed the table angrily.

"Not only did Governor Zhao profit from it, but his son Zhao Dingxun also killed countless good women with cruel methods. He had a villa in the city, just across the street in Liuke Lane... many of the evidence of his crimes were included!"

"The Zhao family father and son are really worse than animals!"

"It's really a great shame for Hezhou!"

The girl leaned against the fence and listened. After her heart settled, she nodded as she listened to the people in the hall praising the imperial envoy. She thought she would have to wait at least three to five days.

She didn't expect that when she woke up, Erlang of the Wei family would solve everything in just one night.

Erlang of the Wei family is available.

She was approving in her heart, and everyone in the hall became more and more curious about this resolute and resolute imperial envoy. They gathered around a somewhat knowledgeable scholar and asked questions.

The scholar's tone was full of yearning and admiration: "Speaking of it, Master Wei is really an extraordinary person. He was born in the Duke of Zheng, a prominent family in the capital. However, he was able to enter the court and become an official because of the influence of his family. He was already a member of the imperial family at the age of seventeen. The number one scholar selected by the sage Yubi is the youngest number one scholar since the beginning of the imperial examination!"

Um?

The girl who was about to go back to the guest room turned her back and frowned slightly in confusion.

How could she not know this?

Not to mention Wei Yu, when did Dasheng have a seventeen-year-old champion?

Her first reaction was that the scholar was exaggerating to please others.

The exclamations in the hall continued—

"Now I am only in my early twenties, I have already entered the provinces, and I am serving as the Minister of Dongtai... It is hard for us to match such a talent!"

The girl's eyebrows furrowed deeper.

Why can't I get the official position?

Someone suddenly realized when they heard this: "I have heard about it earlier. It turns out that the person who is here this time is the rumored only son of Duke Zheng - Wei Shuyi, Minister of Wei!"

"Exactly!"

The girl turned around suddenly when she heard this.

"The imperial envoy—" She stared closely at the waiter who went upstairs to deliver the meal: "Wei what?"

"Why..." The guy reacted for a moment, then suddenly smiled: "To eliminate harm for the people!"

"..." the girl asked tentatively: "...is the imperial envoy from the capital called Wei Yu?"

This is really important to her—

"Wei Yu...you are talking about the second master of the Wei family." With a family like the Wei family, any one you pick will be an important figure, and the capital is only a thousand miles away from Hezhou, so the waiter can be seen greeting him and seeing him off at the inn. Shen Guang smiled at this moment and said: "Didn't you listen to what the guests downstairs said? This person is not the second master of the Wei family, but his nephew, the eldest son of Zheng Guogong, and Wei Shuyi, the minister of Dongtai!"

“…”

After that, the man went about his business, leaving the girl where she was as if she were petrified.

After a while, she raised her hand stiffly and seriously compared the height of the fence in front of her.

—Wei Shuyi?

—That little brat who, with some talent, has been attacking people indiscriminately since he was three or two years old?

now…

She raised her hand higher and higher, until it was above her head, and it seemed as if the young man who came out of the teahouse yesterday was standing in front of her.

Now - it suddenly became so big? !

Under the huge impact, the girl's face became increasingly expressionless.

She turned around slowly and walked toward the room.

She needed some quiet time.

She needs to smooth things over.

Otherwise, if this situation continues to develop, she may not be able to escape her madness if she loses control of her sanity.

…

Seeing the girl return to the room and close the door, the boy looked confused, but he did not dare to come forward and disturb her.

In the room, the girl sat in front of the mirror, looking at the face in the mirror intently.

If Wei Shuyi has grown up and is over the age of 10, then...

She raised her hand and gently pressed the scar on her heart -

Then, Ah Li should be as old as he is in the mirror.

The girl in the mirror frowned.

The child she had rescued was actually kidnapped in such a good year.

Her mind was surging like waves from a hurricane. She closed her eyes, and many complicated images flashed through her mind.

She only knew that she was lucky enough to be resurrected from the dead, and that this world was still the same world, but she never thought that today was no longer yesterday, and everything yesterday was a thing of the past.

At this time, a group of people dressed in dark green attire entered the inn and hurried up to the second floor.

Today, our heroine finally has a nickname to use...
