Chapter 738: Cai's helplessness

"Old and old Cai Yuan, pay homage to His Majesty Yue Guo Yuechen.
The minister was flattered by the invitation of his majesty. "
Cai Yuan followed Wei Zhongxian upstairs on the boat and paid respects, looking very excited.
The girl beside him also followed and said, "Little girl Cai Xuan, see your majesty."
Yue Chen said: "Have you seen me?"
Cai Yuan smiled and said, "I'm waiting to see your majesty in the spirit world.
So when I saw your Majesty, I immediately recognized it.
It's just that I never thought that your majesty, such a great man, would summon me and wait for my father. "
Yue Chen said: "You two sit down, I have something to ask you two."
"Oh!"
Cai Yuan was a little surprised, and then sat respectfully in front of Yue Chen, straightening his waist to show respect.
Cai Xuan did not sit, but stood behind Cai Yuan, lowering her head slightly.
However, Cai Yuan's face still can't hide his sadness.
Yue Chen said: "I don't know where the two of you are going in a hurry."
Cai Yuan was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled bitterly: "I've encountered a bad thing, it's really hard to tell."
Yue Chen put a wine glass in front of Cai Yuan, and said lightly: "I have wine here. If there is a story, it's okay to say it.
Of course, if privacy is involved, it would be abrupt. "
The smile on Cai Yuan's face was even more bitter. He picked up the wine glass in front of him and took a sip.
Then Cai Yuan sighed: "Your Majesty wants to hear, but it is the blessing of old age.
The old man's line is to go to Ming Xinzong to ask for sin. "
Yue Chen calmly said: "I don't know, what crime Lao Zhang has committed is not to go to your empire to plead the crime, nor to the temple, but to his Mingxinzong."
"Ugh!"
Cai Yuan sighed for a long time, then slowly said: "About half a year ago, my granddaughter Xuan'er presided over the business of Changle State.
We are in the leather armor business. Our ancestors have been doing this business for more than 100 years.
It was nothing originally...just that time, when the Majesty of Changle State celebrated his 100th birthday, the scene was extremely lively.
One-sixth of our Cai family's business is in Changle country, and more than 30,000 people rely on Changle country for food.
Therefore, I didn't dare to neglect, and specially selected a level 6 ice blue fox leather armor to offer to the king.
But Ming Xinzong only took out three level 5 pills.
While attending the dinner, Lan Gongyu, grandson of Sect Master Lan of Ming Xinzong, said at the banquet that his convoy that transported goods had been robbed and lost an armor made of ice blue fox fur.
Alluding to our Cai family stole the ice blue fox leather armor.
Xuan'er was unwilling to be slandered, and argued with reason, saying that the origin of the ice blue fox's fur was clear, and there was more than one ice blue fox in the world.
Under the king's mediation, the two sides did not continue their dispute.
Alas...At that time, it was rumored that Sect Master Lan had gone into trouble and that Ming Xin Sect could not protect itself, and we didn't care much.
That night, Lan Gongyu sent a letter to Xuan'er, asking her to marry Lan Gongyu, and he let the Cai family go.
That Lan Gongyu has a bad reputation and takes pleasure in abusing young girls. If we marry Xuan'er to her, wouldn't we push her into the fire pit?
I originally thought that things would pass.
But who could have imagined that it didn't take long for Sect Master Lan to recover from his injuries.
In order to tell the world of his return, he must stand up.
And our Cai family has become the object of Liwei.
Thinking about it now, it must be that Lan Gongyu deliberately did it, deliberately arguing, so that Lan Guhao can cast his anger on us. "
After listening, Yue Chen nodded, looked directly into Cai Yuan's eyes, and said indifferently: "So old man, you went to Mingxinzong, what are you going to do?"
"Ugh!"
Cai Yuan sighed, "We are just a small family of the 5th-level empire, and the old man is only a battle emperor.
If Ming Xin Sect wants to deal with us, he can send out an elder at random to destroy our Cai family.
The situation is better than people, what else can we do? "
The words are full of helplessness.
Cai Yuan went on to say, "We have more than 20,000 people living in the Cai family.
We went to Mingxinzong to take the initiative to admit our mistakes, compensate Mingxinzong for the loss, and give half of the family wealth.
Lan Gongyu also spoke, asking Xuan'er to marry her as a concubine.
This wronged Xuan'er, but Xuan'er could only sacrifice herself for the sake of tens of thousands of people. "
"Well! Your Cai family lives very sadly."
Yue Chen said indifferently.
Yue Chen couldn't judge anything about Cai's recognition.
In this world, not everyone is like themselves, with great power and hole cards.
They want to be alive and compromise in various ways. Daughters of large families are basically used to marry and consolidate their strength.
Cai Yuan seemed to hear the mockery in Yue Chen's words, and smiled: "Compared with the death of the whole family, it is always better to continue to live.
There are 36 granddaughters of mine, either one sacrificed Xuan'er, or the granddaughter and the whole family died.
Nagging for so long made your Majesty laugh. "
After speaking, Cai Yuan silently bowed to Yue Chen, with a glimmer of expectation in his eyes.
Behind Cai Yuan, Cai Xuan's expression is more obvious.
The world knows Yue Chen's strength, if Yue Chen can intervene in this matter?
Yue Chen said: "After listening to the story, Lao Zhang will have another drink at the bar."
Cai Yuan raised his glass and took a sip.
Yue Chen said again: "Since Lao Zhang, you still have something to do, I won't keep you and leave."
The light in Cai Yuan and Cai Xuan’s eyes dimmed quickly, and Cai Yuan squeezed a grudging smile on his face, saying: "Your Majesty, today is the recovery of Sect Master Lan. He invites all parties to celebrate. The old man dare not go late. Goodbye."
Cai Xuan saluted Yue Chen: "Your Majesty, the little girl retire."
The two left and set foot on their own boat again.
His back was a little sad.
"Wei Zhongxian, go and check if what they said is true."
Yue Chen said.
Wei Zhongxian worshipped: "Your Majesty, the minions have already investigated, and they said there was indeed something happening.
It’s just that your Majesty, Cai Yuan, has impure intentions..." "Ha ha ha! "
Yue Chen smiled and said, "Are you saying that you are pitiful and sympathetic?"
"Yes!"
Wei Zhongxian said.
Yue Chen said lightly: "When you are in a desperate situation, you will subconsciously grab every life-saving straw. It is understandable that they want me to save them.
In the end, he didn't kneel down to beg me. It was not a moral kidnapping.
Merchants, there is always some utilitarianism, but this Cai Yuan is much better than most merchants I have seen.
As far as the virtue of Ming Xinzong is, even if it has nothing to do with me, I will take care of it when I hear something like this. What's more, this matter is really related to me. "
After speaking, Yue Chen took out a human skin mask.
Originally, I posted this human skin mask and sold it to Lan Xinyan. Now I want to ask for debts, so I naturally have to use the original face.
Wei Zhongxian said: "Your Majesty, then Master Pei and I, do you want to dissolve?"
Yue Chen said indifferently: "No, it doesn't matter whether you recognize my identity or not. The important thing is that I want them to pay the debt."
