Fast Travel: Forced to flee after refusing to love a brain villain

Chen Desheng's face turned pale, and he peed in fright.

It was only thirty years since the founding of the Great Pagoda Kingdom. After the Great War, the population was extremely scarce. The imperial court encouraged childbearing, and specially enacted laws to protect women, girls, and infants, because only women can give birth.

In other dynasties, patriarchal customs prevailed, and in remote places, there were too many baby girls and women who were killed and killed, and no one cared.

According to the laws of the Great Pagoda Kingdom, those who kill female infants shall be beheaded; those who kill female children shall be quartered by horses;

The villagers were unwilling to meddle in their own business and never reported Chen Desheng's crimes, but now that he was stabbed in the court, he could only die.

The law has not clearly regulated the matter of witches, but killing female infants is a direct crime of death.

The county magistrate ordered Chen Desheng to be taken into custody, and the body would be dismembered after being questioned by the people in Ming Village.

Chen Desheng looked at Zhang Shi in horror, wanting Zhang Shi to speak for him.

Mrs. Zhang's eyes were dimmed with tears, and she couldn't bear it.

But Luo Sanniang at the side looked at her coldly, and said expressionlessly: "If your dead daughter knows that you are so useless, I'm afraid she will regret walking in your stomach."

Zhang's body trembled, she lowered her head and kept crying, she didn't say a word, only listening to Chen Desheng's voice getting farther and farther away.

The county magistrate acquitted Chen Yue and released him. After leaving the county office, Chen Yue looked at Jiang Guo and Luo Sanniang as if they had passed away.

It took a long time before she hugged Jiang Guo and cried.

Not far away, Li Zhonghao pursed his lips, not daring to step forward.

Chen Yue stopped crying, and her eyes were red and swollen.

She spoke to Luo Sanniang in a hoarse voice: "Aunt Luo, thank you for saving your life. Chen Yue has nothing to repay, and will do her best to repay you in the future!"

Luo Sanniang touched her head and nodded.

"Good boy, it's all right now. Mr. Li is the one who helped you a lot. Go and thank him. Guoguo and I are waiting for you at home."

"Ah."

Luo Sanniang took Jiang Guo away, and Chen Yue walked up to Li Zhonghao, seeing him at a loss, only felt sad and funny.

When they met for the first time, she still felt that scholars were like Gong Zhixiao, but who knew that this person actually saved her life.

It can be seen that it is impossible to judge a person by its appearance.

"Mr. Li, thank you for your life-saving grace. If I will be useful in the future, Mr. Li can speak up, and Chen Yue will never forget your kindness."

Li Zhonghao said with a slight smile: "Miss Chen, as long as you are fine, I... I didn't help much, but I just read more idle books..."

He seemed a little hasty, and he stuttered a few sentences, probably because he was not used to saying such things to others.

Knowing that he loves to read, Chen Yue doesn't often talk with the opposite sex, and waits patiently for him to speak.

She smiled lightly, her eyelashes were still watery, like a flower bud suddenly blooming in a lotus pond, and the petals were still beautiful with dewdrops on them, Li Zhonghao was dumbfounded.

"Mr. Li, is the story in that book really true?"

Li Zhonghao nodded, and unconsciously clenched the book in his hand.

"If Ms. Chen is interested, I have a lot of books like this at home, and I can lend them to her..."

Chen Yue was also really curious.

If it wasn't for Li Zhonghao's extensive study this time, she would really have died here.

"Okay, thank you Mr. Li."

-

On the other hand, Jiang Guo was stunned by Zeng Xian's words.

Zeng Xian looked at Jiang Guo with some embarrassment, his cheeks were blushing.

"That book... That book was written overnight by Mr. Li and I. I started writing it since Miss Chen was imprisoned in the prison at noon yesterday. I finally caught up with it today..."

It was actually written!

It seems that Li Zhonghao's affection for Chen Yue is not just a star, he actually cares about her so much.

And the prince in front of him.

It's just that this prince is still a little worse than Li Zhonghao. He is a prince after all, and he always considers his identity.

If he had come forward as the prince, he would have solved this matter without any trouble, but he is not such an impulsive person, and he does not seem to be as simple as the surface, and he is unwilling to reveal his identity easily.

Moreover, shouldn't he ask Chen Yue to claim credit for his good deeds? Why did he tell Jiang Guo to her?

If she could speak, it would indeed be better to tell Chen Yue through other people's mouths.

But she is dumb!

This prince's emotional intelligence is really worrying.

Jiang Guo waited for Chen Yue to go home, and Chen Yue brought Li Zhonghao back, and brought back a few books, but the prince still refused to leave.

But after all, it was a help, and the few of them had dinner together.

After dinner, Jiang Guo was very sleepy, and she wanted to sleep with Chen Yue tonight to calm her down.

Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, she was in a hurry to urinate, so she got up to go to the bathroom alone. As soon as she walked to the yard, she heard a slight sound from the tree.
