Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine

Hearing this, Yao Shu was shocked.

Taking the princess out to sacrifice, if the emperor knew about it, everyone in this town might not be able to escape.

"I didn't expect they still have this kind of ceremony here?"

"This place seems to be very developed, but in fact its thinking is very ignorant. They have to conduct a sacrificial ceremony every year and select young and beautiful women in the town to sacrifice to the river god." When Li Chen said the last two words , the whole person's expression is very gloomy.

It seems that he really hates this kind of thing.

"What else do you know? Tell us everything." Yao Shu gathered everyone together and began to listen to Li Chen's analysis of the current situation.

Li Chen told everyone in detail all the matters related to sacrifices he had investigated during this period, and even told everyone what he had done.

After hearing his words, the Shen family present completely believed that he had no other intentions.

Everyone thought for a moment and didn't know where to ask.

"This is all I know so far. If you still have any questions, you can ask them."

When Li Chen said these words, he looked like an official in the imperial court, which made people feel very reassuring and trustworthy.

"But we have no evidence to prove that the princess is in the palace. According to what you just said, the time for the sacrifice is getting closer and closer. If we haven't rescued the princess by this time..."

Shen Jianan did not finish what he said, but everyone present realized the seriousness of the matter.

According to Li Chen's narrative, the people here should believe in the rumored river god.

If we take the princess back from everyone, it will most likely arouse everyone's resentment.

If the people resist together, the matter will definitely become even bigger.

Thinking of this, Yao Shu immediately spoke: "We must rescue the princess before the sacrifice begins. The best way is to enter the palace."

"How can I enter the palace and rescue people without anyone noticing?"

The palace is heavily guarded and cannot be easily accessed.

While several people were still discussing, the waiter's voice suddenly came from outside the door.

Looking at this battle, it should be Mr. Wang who came to the inn to look for the Shen family.

Yao Shu immediately asked Li Chen to hide temporarily and not show his face. After all, Mr. Wang didn't know Li Chen's existence yet.

Then Yao Shu and Shen Nanshan immediately walked out with smiles, and sure enough they saw Mr. Wang sitting in the middle of the hall.

The door has been closed by the butler, and all other guests in the store have been driven out, leaving only Mr. Wang and the Shen family.

Yao Shu knew that the person who came was not a good person, so she immediately said: "I didn't know that Mr. Wang is coming here. It's really disappointing to welcome him from afar."

"If I remember correctly, I should have invited you two to my house just now. But after I finished my work, when I went out to check, I found that the two of them had already left. I didn't know that they were interested in me. Do you have any opinions, or do you have any problem with my parrot?" Mr. Wang lowered his head and made tea for himself, and said calmly.

There was no emotional change in his tone, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking at the moment.

"There is no problem. I just felt that Mr.'s bird was too precious, so I took a curious look. But just now I saw the bird flying out on its own. I thought that this must be Mr.'s most precious parrot, so we chased after it together." Yao Shu His words were very strong, but there was no fault in them.

Mr. Wang turned his eyes slightly and gave her a cold look, but he couldn't make any mistake.

After a moment, he said in a cold voice: "I didn't expect Mrs. Shen and Boss Shen to be so broad-minded. They bothered you to catch the parrot for me. I'm really grateful."

His smile didn't strike his eyes, but contained a bit of menace and chill.

Yao Shu and Shen Nanshan didn't know why he came here, so they kept laughing and observing his expression.

"I don't know whether to talk about something or not. You two must have been here for a while, so you should know that our people here have a sacrificial ceremony. In a few days, it will be the day when the sacrificial ceremony should be carried out. According to the rules here, it is inevitable People from outside the country are not allowed to participate. But the two of me and I got along very well, so I invited the Shen family to go with us. What do you think?" After Boss Wang finished speaking, he looked directly at the two of them.

The provocative look made Shen Nanshan feel very dissatisfied. He subconsciously wanted to refuse, but he immediately thought that the princess was in their hands.

"Of course, Boss Wang invites us to participate in the sacrifice, which is a sign of trust and care for us. It is also an honor for us to know such a big-hearted man as Boss Wang. Boss Wang can tell us the time and place, and we will arrive at the scene on time." Yao After Shu finished speaking, she respectfully handed Boss Wang a money bag.

Compared with the money bag that Boss Wang threw to them at that time, this one at this time was a bit more expensive.

Yao Shu also wanted to let Boss Wang know that they were either rich or noble, and it was definitely not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

If Boss Wang acts rashly, they will naturally not let him go easily.

Unexpectedly, Boss Wang had no reaction at all.

He gently lowered his eyes and glanced at the money bag, then immediately said with a smile: "It seems that Mrs. Shen is blaming me for wrongly blaming you two before."

"Of course I don't dare to do this. It's just that you have to prepare some things to participate in the sacrifice. We are new here and don't understand anything. These money are not for Mr. Wang. We also know that Mr. Wang is an extraordinary person and will not let these small coins go. In my heart. We just hope that Mr. Wang can help us prepare something so that when we participate in the sacrifice, we will not be empty-handed." Yao Shu went on to say a few words to praise Mr. Wang.

Her compliment was very helpful to Mr. Wang, and he nodded with satisfaction.

"In that case, I won't be polite. As for the parrot, since Mrs. Shen likes it so much, I will give it to you two as a favor."

Boss Wang turned his head slightly and signaled his butler to take the money bag.

He said a few more irrelevant words, and then left in a hurry.

Shen Nanshan looked at his back and couldn't help but feel a little strange: "Is it possible that he came here just to ask for money from us?"

"You can think of this money as protection money. He came to us this time, firstly to provoke, and secondly to ask for money. But I didn't expect that he knew that we were not as simple as we thought, but still You have to open your mouth for this small amount of money." Yao Shu immediately realized that there might be someone with greater power behind Mr. Wang.
