Chapter 688: 260th

"Why did the lady come back so soon?"
The girl in the yard saw Liu Leping back and hurriedly greeted her into the house. Liu Leping found that the mother and Mrs. Ji who were talking in the house closed their mouths when they saw her coming in.
Don't you want her to hear what the mother talks with Mrs. Ji?
Liu Leping's doubts in his heart were not obvious, and he sat down after saluting the two elders.
Mrs. Ji smiled and asked her: "Why do you come back so fast? Have you visited the Fuzhong Garden?"
Liu Leping replied: "I ran into Uncle Ji on the road. Uncle gave a gift and came back straight away."
Originally, when she met the elders, giving gifts to the elders was a normal thing, but after she finished speaking, she found that both her mother and Mrs. Ji's complexion changed instantly, and the calm mother actually stood up directly.
"What did you say, did you meet Ji Chang... Master Ji?"
But I met an elder, not to mention that this is still in his house. Isn't it normal to meet?
Liu Leping didn't know, so he told the truth about the accidental encounter.
After speaking, she looked at her mother's complex expression, and asked with some worry: "But what did the daughter do wrong?"
Before her mother spoke, Mrs. Ji grabbed the conversation first. She smiled, but Liu Leping could see her smile very reluctantly.
"Nothing, you guys are hungry too, Taohua, let the kitchen bring the food."
Both elders had to act as if nothing happened. Even though Liu Leping was curious, he did not ask any more questions.
After a meal, she felt very good.
Mrs. Ji is the gentlest and best speaker of all the ladies she has ever seen. Maybe it’s because she had a handkerchief with her mother. She was also very kind to her. She frequently added food to her when she ate, and she raised her eyes by chance. All were Mrs. Ji's smiling face.
It seems that Mrs. Ji really likes the younger generation.
The host and the host enjoyed a meal. After chatting for more than an hour, Mrs. Liu got up to say goodbye to go back. When Mother Xu sent the mother and daughter to the gate of the courtyard, Liu Leping saw Master Ji again.
He was standing outside the door, talking to the girl guarding the door outside.
Seeing the two, he bowed his hand.
Before Liu Leping responded, he saw his mother's face changed drastically and stood in front of her.
She was astonished in her heart that her mother had always been dignified, and how she would perform such rude gestures in front of outsiders. Before she could understand, Master Ji smiled reluctantly: "Where is the sister-in-law?"
"My husband is just a five-rank little official. When he is a sister-in-law, I ask the adults to give way. Don't get in the way."
The smile on Ji Changze's mouth became more and more far-fetched. He opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he didn't speak any more, only saluted again and turned away.
A cold wind blows, and Master Ji's wide sleeves are blown up, making him look a little weaker.
Liu Leping wondered why his mother hated Master Ji in this way. She obviously had a very good relationship with Mrs. Ji.
Mrs. Liu didn't notice the blankness in her daughter's eyes, she just turned her head and asked Mother Xu: "How can he still have the face to come here."
Mother Xu knew that Mrs. Liu was worried that Ji Changze was coming to Liu Leping, and quickly explained:
"The master comes every day, but he doesn't go to the hospital. He just came to ask the wife if she had eaten and what kind of food she used."
"The cat cries and the mouse fake mercy! I lost Cici back then, now I'm pretending to be a good person."
Madam Liu scolded angrily.
Mother Xu knew that she was complaining about her own wife, but she lowered her head as if she hadn't heard it. When she sent them out of the house, she took advantage of Liu Leping being supported by the the sedan chair, and whispered to Madam Liu: "Our wife's It means, don’t bring Miss Leping here in the future."
Madam Liu was a little startled: "Cici is afraid?"
Mother Xu knew what she was talking about and nodded: "Although the first woman who delivered the baby was sick and died, the only people who knew about it were you, my wife, and the old slaves. But what kind of temper is your master? I also know that there are very few things that can be hidden from him. If Miss Leping comes more often, you may not be able to see what the master is."
Mrs. Liu understands.
She sighed: "It's just that Cici will suffer."
The biological daughter was in Beijing but she didn't dare to meet. She liked to look forward to that, but she had to decide personally not to see this child again.
It's all to blame that Ji Changze for doing evil, if it weren't for him, how could Cici want this.
On the other side, it should be said that they are husband and wife, Liu Shengyan is also swearing at Ji Changze.
Ji Changze who committed evil.
He had been walking hard along the way, but now he has to take a long way to deliver the letter. It is rainy and cold here, and the ground is all muddy. If a person walks inside, he can fall into the root of his leg, Liu Shengyan. A weak scholar, he felt like he was freezing to death in less than an hour.
I can't blame it for being a place of exile, it's too bad.
After complaining all the way, I still didn't give up. When it was almost dark, Liu Shengyan found a place to redeem him.
This group of exiled people are here to do hard work, and it takes three hundred gold to redeem one person.
The rule of ransoming a person with three hundred gold was naturally set by the emperor.
Anyway, as a person who needs money to eat and drink

The emperor who has fun, he is determined not to let go of even a little opportunity to make money.
Three hundred gold, let alone the small officials who were exiled here, even those who have savings in the family have to take it out.
For families with money to redeem, their children were redeemed the first day they were sent here, and the rest, naturally, are those who have no money at home and will have to stay here for at least 20 to 30 years.
As soon as the redeemer's secretary entered, most of the prisoners who were working in the distance quietly looked over, guessing which one was redeemed this time.
"No newcomers have come recently, can anyone make enough money?"
People are working while discussing whose family may come to redeem him. Some people are interested in this, while others are not.
One of the middle-aged people was not interested. He limped on a leg and limped at work. He didn't respond to other people's discussions, so he just bored his head.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to go out, but he knows what the situation is in his home. He has only an old mother who can’t walk easily. Although his wife says that he does embroider work well, he can still sell for a few dollars by doing embroidery work. To collect three hundred gold is like a fantasy.
Therefore, he can only leave after being here for twenty years.
While working on his head, the petty officer who was watching them suddenly walked towards him. He was shocked and hurried to work harder. For fear of being beaten again, he didn't expect the petty officer to walk around him and just ask him; "You are Isn't it called yellow ginseng?"
He was stunned: "Yes, I am yellow ginseng."
"Okay, you go, someone will redeem you."
The yellow ginseng was stunned.
How can someone redeem him?
In the situation in his family, even if he sold the whole family, he couldn't make up the money.
But looking at the surrounding environment, the cocoons and blisters in the palm of his hand, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, finally, finally got rid of here.
Huang Ginseng limped and walked to the door under the envy and jealous eyes of other people. The officials confirmed his identity and let him go. Outside, there was a man sitting on a rock and throwing the stones in his boots. He was familiar, staring for several seconds before pulling it out of memory.
"Liu, Master Liu?"
Liu Shengyan put on his boots and got up to meet him: "Master Huang, it's been a long time."
Huang Ginseng smiled bitterly: "I have been demoted, so don't call me an adult."
Seeing that it was Liu Shengyan, his doubts in his heart became more serious. The situation in Liu Shengyan's family was not much better than that of him. The two of them were half a catty. Where did the money come from to redeem him? The two don't have much friendship, so why come to redeem him?
When I arrived at the inn, I finally didn't have to step on the mud. Liu Shengyan breathed a sigh of relief. Then he started talking about the business: "I am here to redeem you. It is entrusted by others."
Yellow Ginseng was even more at a loss: "Who?"
Liu Shengyan stared at his face, "Master Ji Changze."
The yellow ginseng was taken aback.
"This this……"
Liu Shengyan hurriedly asked: "What the was going on in the beginning, does Mrs. Huang know the inside story?"
He was riveting enough, trying to figure out what Ji Changze was selling.
Then ask the victim Huang Daren, and it will be clearest.
After all, it was Ji Changze who gave him a messenger, and he was sent here.
Huang Ginseng's expression was complicated, and he opened his mouth hesitantly, not knowing what to say, but looking at his expression, he did know something.
There is a play! !
Liu Shengyan hurriedly took out the letter from his baggage and handed it to Huang Ginseng: "Master Ji asked me to give you this letter. Take a look."
After speaking, seeing Huang Ginseng began to open the letter, he quickly moved the stool over there, and followed it with a very natural appearance.
Holding this letter along the way, Liu Shengyan was curious to death, but this was a letter from Ji Changze to others, and he was not easy to peek.
It can be seen now.
After reading the letter, it was better not to read it.
Before Liu Shengyan read the letter, there were only three question marks in his heart. After reading it, they became eighteen.
It was written in the letter that I hope Master Huang can help Liu Shengyan, help him quell the refugees, comfort the people, and complete the disaster relief smoothly. Liu Shengyan can understand these things.
He also wrote to make Mr. Huang feel at ease. His family is living as before. The two children are also in school. They are talented and learn very hard. Liu Shengyan also understands this.
But what did the letter stated at the beginning of "I helped you as you wished, and now it's time for you to help me with radiance and fever", what do you mean?
When did Ji Changze help yellow ginseng?
Hasn't he been harming yellow ginseng all the time? Isn’t it because of Ji Changze that the yellow ginseng fell to this exile?
By the way, after reading the yellow ginseng, his eyes were full of tears and his face was grateful, as if he could not wait to enshrine Ji Changze.
"Master Ji and Master Ji are really good people..."
Liu Shengyan: "???"
Wait, you know, didn’t Ji Changze make you here? ?
This is what Huang Ginseng is talking about.
He was grateful to Ji Changze very gratefully, upside down, and told the "truth" at the beginning.

"At that time, I saw that your majesty was going to take me and wait for these former officials of the old prince to perform various crimes. At that time, three old officials of the prince were accused of various crimes. He lost his life and his family was also injured and sold."
The yellow ginseng was red and he said gravely:
"I'm a small official, and I can't save myself. What's more, it is your majesty who wants our lives. Who can fight against your majesty in the world? Then I thought, how could it be a death simply, instead of the whole family suffering, it is better to just kill me. ."
Liu Shengyan understood it now.
"So you asked Ji Changze to pretend to hate you, find you a crime and send you to this remote place at will. Although you were exiled, your family fled."
"Do not."
Yellow Ginseng shook his head, his tone ashamed.
"At that time, I also believed that Master Ji was a villain who must report to Jacques. The villain with a deep heart and a vicious plan directly stepped on the adult's foot and was successfully exiled. I only thought that I had guessed the adult's reaction... …Unexpectedly, I didn’t expect that Master Ji knew everything, but he didn’t say anything, he deliberately cooperated with me..."
"I also think that Master Ji is a villain. It turns out that this is not the result of my calculation, but Master Ji deliberately helped me. I, I still misunderstood him like that. I really can't help the adults..."
Liu Shengyan thought about it. He clearly saw it but didn't say anything. He just silently assisted him in accordance with Huang Ginseng's plan, which sounds familiar.
Come to think of it, isn't this what Ji Changze had silently helped him for more than ten years before, but he never revealed anything in front of him?
Eh, Nagasawa...
Why do you want to do this? Why?
He patted yellow ginseng on the shoulder: "I understand you, you are at ease. Ji Changze is not the kind of person who is careful. I was like you before. He helped me behind for more than ten years. I scolded him for more than ten years. Care about me."
"Hey, I have suffered you too. For the sake of your family, you have to find your own sins. If you didn't meet Changze, but the person who will be retributed to the canthus, it is possible to lose your head."
Yellow ginseng wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and muttered: "What can I do? In that situation, instead of being annihilated, it would be better to just sacrifice me. In order to keep my family, I would do anything I want."
"No, if it's me, I'm afraid I will do the same, for the sake of my family..."
Liu Shengyan said and stopped suddenly.
For... family?
At the beginning... the situation of the Li family, if it weren't for Master Li's death in the court, Ji Changze quickly admitted the crime of Master Li, with the current practice, the Li family would definitely not be able to survive.
Nowadays, it has always been cutting grass without leaving its roots, unless, unless the roots left behind are marked as guilty.
He has been wondering why Ji Changze suddenly changed from being a disciple of Master Rumu, a husband who loves his wife, and a friend who is cheerful and tolerant towards him, to a framing Master, flattering the present, and stepping on high. The villain who is holding down.
Why, it changed so suddenly.
Are they all in disguise before? Is it all pretended by him?
But now, after knowing part of what Ji Changze had done silently, an idea suddenly popped up in his heart.
Perhaps Ji Changze has never changed.
It's just that if he doesn't, then the next one to die before his eyes will be the Li family's wife.
Liu Shengyan asked Huang Renshen: "I ask you, if your wife, children and mother are in danger and want to save their lives, you must insult your dying father and act like a shameless villain. You will be insulted by all the people in the world. Do you do this?"
Huang Ginseng nodded affirmatively: "Yes, I will."
"My father died early. Before leaving, he asked me to take good care of my mother. If he is alive, he will definitely support me in doing this. No matter how my reputation is damaged, I must save my mother, wife and children, Master Liu, you Why are you crying, no, why are you laughing again? Did I make a mistake?"
Liu Shengyan cried and smiled and waved his hands: "Yes, that's right."
It turned out to be so.
