Chapter 383 Ouyang Xu's Loyal Servant Uncle De
"Young Master Xiao, Young Master Xiao, you must save my Yang family!"

"Master Xiao, your mother Shuniang and I have been good sisters since we were young. I even hugged you when we were young. You must save us!"

"Young Master Xiao, you must save us!"

Hearing that the men in black were about to destroy their entire family, Yang Zhiyuan and his wife could no longer hide, and rushed out of the main hall with a group of maids and servants, wanting to ask Yuan Xudong to save the Yang family. There were more than 100 people in the family, and these black-clothed killers obviously planned not to spare any of them, even if they were women, children, old and weak, maids or servants, they would kill them all, and then set fire to destroy the corpses!

At this moment, there was a rapid sound of gongs outside the courtyard. It turned out that the nearby people heard the explosion in the Yang Mansion and rushed to check it out. Seeing this, Yuan Xudong looked at the leader in black and said with a smile:

"Brother in black, the people nearby are coming, you should go back first, I don't think your master wants to make this shameful incident known to the world, right?"

"withdraw!"

Taking a deep look at Yuan Xudong, who was fearless in the face of danger, the men in black at the head immediately ordered to retreat. Many men in black quickly and orderly withdrew from the Yang Mansion. People poured kerosene all over the Yang Mansion, especially Yang Zhiyuan's study, and then threw down a few burning torches. In an instant, the entire Yang Mansion was ablaze, and the man in black quickly receded like a tide, and then disappeared in the vast night. Disappear.

The entire Yang Mansion was burned. In order to avoid the fire and billowing smoke, under the leadership of Zhao Pan'er and Yuan Xudong, everyone ran to the backyard of the Yang Mansion, where there was a pond to hide in, and they could escape through the back door to avoid bumping into the man in black at the front door. together.

For a moment, there was a rapid sound of gongs outside the courtyard, and the sound of people running and shouting:

"Go away, go out!"

Seeing the flames of Yang's mansion soaring into the sky, the nearby people came to fight the fire one after another. There was a lot of noise for a while, and several men in black quickly exchanged eyes in the darkness and hurriedly disappeared, as if no one had ever appeared before. Soon, by the pond Many people with buckets in their hands poured in to help put out the fire. All the survivors in Yang's mansion were rescued. Qian Fan, Yuan Xudong couldn't help but be concerned:
"Are you all right?"

"I can't die for the time being, thank you for today's work!"

After speaking, Gu Qianfan's complexion changed slightly when he saw several officers and soldiers wearing black boots walking in. He looked at Yuan Xudong and the others and said in a low voice:
"Go, get out of here first!"

"it is good!"

Taking a look at everyone in the Yang family who survived the catastrophe, Yuan Xudong, Zhao Pan'er, Gu Qianfan, and Lao Jia left quietly.

Because of the burning fuel, the flames inside and outside the Yang Mansion were still raging, and the fire could not be extinguished. After a long time, the yamen servants carried out the corpses one by one, and the people stood outside the burnt gate of the Yang Mansion to point out. He pointed out:
"A lot of people died!"

"I heard that robbers came to the door, murdered and set fire to kill so many people!"

"Where did the robbers come from in our Qiantang? I think they are more or less pirates!"

"I heard from my brother-in-law on duty that this gang of masked killers is likely to be subordinate to General Chu of Ning Haijun. The cloud pattern sword specially used by Ning Haijun was found on the spot. Everyone knows that General Chu of Ning Haijun and Master Yang Never get along!"

"Whether it's the people sent by General Chu, or there were pirates who came ashore, and so many people died at once, or it was Lord Yang's house, if the court really pursues it, Ning Haijun will not be able to get rid of it, at least it is a dereliction of duty. blame for the crime!"

"Speak carefully, it's better for us little people to talk less about the affairs of adults, and be careful that misfortunes come out of our mouths!"

"That's right, it's still the old Wangtou who sees it clearly. Whether it's General Chu of Ning Haijun, or Mr. Yang, the judge of Liangzhe Road transfer, they are all high-ranking officials. It's better for us little people to talk less!"

Boom~~
There was thunder in the sky, and within a short while, raindrops began to drip, and then it began to rain heavily. Yuan Xudong and Zhao Pan'er were covered in water, and they were in a panic. After leaving Yang's mansion, Gu Qianfan and Lao Jia separated from them, apparently to go to work Investigating the matter of the man in black, Yuan Xudong was too lazy to wade into the muddy water, so he went back to Zhao's tea shop with Zhao Pan'er, but he didn't know that there was a heavy rain on the way, he didn't bring an umbrella, and there was no place to shelter from the rain, so he was drowned in an instant , running in the rain, Zhao Paner looked at Yuan Xudong and asked loudly:
"The Secretary of the Imperial City is known as the eyes and ears of the emperor, and is sent to the world. Gu Qianfan is the commander from Tokyo. What kind of work is it? A case as big as Yang's, they shouldn't let it go just because the officials are protecting each other, right?"

In the rainstorm, Yuan Xudong looked at Zhao Paner beside him and asked loudly:
"What officials protect each other?"

A flash of lightning struck, the sky was as bright as day, and then there was rumbling thunder. Yuan Xudong was shocked. He had sworn to be struck by lightning many times. That's horrible!
Zhao Pan'er didn't know that Yuan Xudong was afraid of thunder, so she continued:
"When I came out of Yang's Mansion, I saw a big footprint on the bluestone slab, the kind of boots that only officers and soldiers would wear, and the crossbow bolts they used, with the word Qiantang engraved on them, and all the arrows were It is made by each county, and there will be signs of each county government on it, as long as you check it, you can see that those men in black are all from the government, right?"

Looking at the silent Yuan Xudong, Zhao Pan'er continued:
"These men in black are obviously going to destroy the Yang family. Their real target should be Yang Yunpan, or something important in Yang Yunpan's hands. The people from the Imperial City Division were only involved by chance. Is it because of the night banquet picture that this big fight happened?"

Hearing the words Ye Yan Tu and then thinking of the walking task assigned by the system, Yuan Xudong took a deep look at Zhao Pan'er and said:

"Yang Zhiyuan's official position is not low. He has something in his hands, or has offended someone. He knows best that the officialdom in Jiangnan has long been a nest of snakes and rats. From top to bottom, officials protect each other. The smarter people often die. The sooner you get there, don't meddle in other people's business, you really annoyed these dog officials, they jumped over the wall in a hurry, even if they are relatives of the emperor, they dare to kill them!"

"That's all for it, isn't it?"

Zhao Pan'er thought of those servants of the Yang family who were killed innocently, and felt a little sad in her heart. These servants were very good, and they often went to her Zhao's tea shop to drink tea. Those who came and went got to know each other. The maid who opened the door was one of them, but it was a pity that those men in black casually killed her. Even her body was burnt beyond recognition, and she couldn't make out what she looked like at all. The Yang family spent money to buy it, and I'm afraid they will die as soon as they die. There are more than a dozen new graves on the mass grave!

Looking at Zhao Pan'er who was filled with righteous indignation, Yuan Xudong frowned slightly and said:
"There are a lot of corrupt officials in the world, including my father, all of them are damned dog officials. If you kill a group, the people who will replace you will do the same, just like the Ouyang Xu you mentioned, etc. After he becomes an official, he will definitely do the same. These so-called scholars have studied hard for more than ten years, not for the glory, wealth and power, but for the sake of the common people?"

Before Zhao Pan'er could refute, Yuan Xudong continued:

"Of course, it is not ruled out that there are good and honest officials who plead for the people, but they are only rare. In my opinion, all people in the world, whether they are traffickers, or emperors, or famous scholar-bureaucrats They should all be equal, and the imperial court also distinguishes between humble and good ones. In essence, the Song Dynasty court is the largest corrupt official group, and there are small corrupt official groups below, but this is human nature, who would not want to Are you born to be a superior person, stepping on the people below to do your best?"

Having said that, Yuan Xudong smiled at Zhao Pan'er, who looked slightly stupefied:

"It's ridiculous to say that those corrupt officials are like this, but the common people are also like this. They also hope that their sons will study hard and become officials and masters in the future, so as to honor their ancestors!
My father is a child from a poor family. He passed the Jinshi examination at the age of 24, and then joined the Gu family. With the support of my grandfather, Gu Shenyan, the servant of the Ministry of Rites, he made steady progress step by step. Later, when his wings hardened, he defected from the Gu family, and now he has to work Prime Minister, under one person, above tens of thousands!
It is such a person from a poor boy background, but he looks down on those poor boys, and only has noble families like the Gu family and the Gao family in his eyes. You can understand me when I say that?
Birth is not important, the important thing is that the ass decides the head, a poor boy has the thoughts of a poor boy, and when he really becomes an official, he will not be the same as before! "

After hearing Yuan Xudong's words, Zhao Pan'er disagreed and said:
"I believe in Ouyang's character. He is not the kind of person you said, and he will definitely be a good official in the future!"

"Let's wait and see, every time righteousness slaughters more dogs, the heart is always a scholar!"

The heavy rain was torrential, the sky changed from dim to moon white, until the sun rose, and the morning glow was magnificent. Yuan Xudong and Zhao Paner found a ruined temple to hide from the heavy rain for a night. Fortunately, Yuan Xudong also prepared a lot of modern living materials in the dimensional space. Watching Yuan Xudong pull out a lot of strange clothes and food out of thin air like a magic trick, Zhao Pan'er's eyes are round and round, very cute!

One night later, Yuan Xudong lit a fire with a lighter to dry the clothes he and Zhao Paner were wearing. In order to avoid shocking the world, Yuan Xudong and Zhao Paner changed the modern clothes they were wearing into ancient clothes. It's white and tender, which makes Yuan Xudong's heart flutter so much that he really wants to suck a couple of mouthfuls and taste how it tastes!
On the way back to the city, Zhao Pan'er's face was blushing. Although she secretly blamed Yuan Xudong for being a disciple, she couldn't help but approach him blushing and said shyly:

"Where is that Middle-earth continent? I have seen foreigners, with yellow hair and green eyes, but they don't know magic either?"

"That fairy also has black hair and black eyes, but we don't know fairy arts either?"

Looking at Zhao Pan'er, who looked like a curious baby, Yuan Xudong said with a smile, last night he was idle and bored, so Yuan Xudong took out his mobile phone to look at it. Although there was no network or service provider, Yuan Xudong downloaded a lot of stand-alone games, movies, and music during time travel. Novels and so on, and generators with solar panels, hand-cranked generators and so on.

Yuan Xudong watched the fantasy movies of the Lord of the Rings series to pass the time. Zhao Pan'er couldn't help watching them twice, and then he was completely fascinated. Watching movies with Zhao Paner in her arms like this, until the sun rose and Yuan Xudong put away her phone, Zhao Paner reluctantly ended her first movie watching trip, and then became a hundred thousand whys, pestering Yuan Xudong to ask Dong Ask West.

Looking at the thoughtful Zhao Pan'er, Yuan Xudong seduced:

"Pan'er, it's a movie, just like a fairy tale told by a storyteller. If you really want to watch it, I have a vixen, the Jade Emperor, the Queen Mother, and a big iron bird that can fly in the sky. It can hold hundreds of passengers, just like the carriages here, and the deep-sea giant ship, a super-large ship made of steel, can hold thousands of people at a time, and there are still nine days left. Landing on the moon, going down to the five oceans to catch turtles, etc., you can see whatever you want, all in that small mobile phone, it can be said to cover everything, such a precious treasure, do you want it?"

"do not want!"

Although she wanted it very much, Zhao Pan'er still stubbornly refused:
"You don't want to tempt me, I don't care!"

"is it?"

Looking at Zhao Pan'er who was stubborn, Yuan Xudong deliberately teased her:
"Forget it if you don't want it, I'll give it to Yin Zhang and Yin Ping to relieve boredom later, they will definitely like it!"

"you"

Looking at Yuan Xudong who was deliberately angry with her, Zhao Pan'er turned her head and left. Deep in her heart, before she knew it, she suddenly became jealous of Song Yinzhang, the younger sister, even Yin Ping, but when she thought of Ouyang Xu, she didn't know what to do. What to do, if she asks Yuan Xudong, Yuan Xudong will definitely tell her that this is the inevitable result of a long-distance relationship. The man climbs another branch, and the woman wants to change after seeing the difference.
Having nothing to say all the way, back to Zhao's tea shop, seeing an old man with a burden wandering in front of his yard, Zhao Pan'er was a little uncertain:

"Uncle De?"

Hearing Zhao Pan'er's voice, the old man known as Uncle De quickly looked at her and bowed and saluted respectfully:

"The old slave pays homage to the lady!"

"Uncle De, why are you here?"

Seeing Ouyang Xu's old servant, Zhao Paner excitedly said:

"Where's Ouyang?"

Without waiting for Uncle De to answer, Zhao Pan'er gradually became nervous again and said:
"Is he all right, won't he fail again?"

"Hey, how can it be?"

Looking at Zhao Pan'er, Uncle De smiled proudly and said:

"The old slave came back to announce the good news. He was hand-picked by the imperial pen of the Jiying Palace of the Mongolian government. Master, he is now a scout of Jinke!"

"Exploring flowers?"

Hearing that Ouyang Xu really passed the exam, Zhao Pan'er instantly became happy, and the smile on his face was even brighter than a flower. He wept with joy:
"It's really hit, it's really hit, you, come in quickly and tell me about his affairs in Tokyo!"

Saying that, Zhao Pan'er opened the courtyard door of Zhao's tea shop, and led Uncle De into the courtyard, and couldn't stop saying:
"You said that he is really serious. You can write a letter and come back. He even asked you to run thousands of miles to pick me up. But he is also. There are so many books and so many boxes. I can't take them all by myself. , it’s just right to have your help, by the way, shall we go to Tokyo this time by water or by land?”

"Miss, don't be impatient. Let's take a long-term plan. The master asked me to bring you a sentence, saying that since he is an official now, then your status is yours."

Seeing that Zhao Paner was so excited, Uncle De was a little embarrassed. He didn't know how to speak next, but for the sake of his master's future, he had to speak out. Who is this young man Zhao Paner? Just before he opened his mouth, Zhao Paner said excitedly:
"Okay, I see, you've driven such a long way, I'll make you a cup of tea!"

"Miss!"

"I know what he's worried about. Doesn't he just think I shouldn't be in business anymore?"

Zhao Pan'er happily said while making tea:

"Just right, something happened to the tea house, so I closed it. By the way, Uncle De, have you had breakfast yet?"

"Don't eat, this old servant has something to tell you!"

Seeing Zhao Pan'er getting more and more happy, Uncle De was in a hurry, and could no longer care about Yuan Xudong next to him, and wanted to tell Zhao Pan'er directly:
"My lady, the master already has one in Tokyo"

"Pan'er, you are finally back!"

At this moment, Sun Sanniang's voice came from afar, and she hurried into the yard, looking at Zhao Pan'er who was making tea in the teahouse, and said worriedly:
"I was worried about you all night!"

As she spoke, she saw Uncle De next to her, and she was surprised and said:

"Uncle De, when did you come back?"

"Sanniang, Ouyang has won, it's Tanhua!"

Zhao Pan'er looked at Sun Sanniang and smiled.

"Exploring flowers?"

Hearing that Ouyang Xu won Tanhua, Sun Sanniang said happily for Zhao Paner:

"Congratulations, congratulations, Mrs. Tanhua, you put on the phoenix crown and Xiapei earlier than me. That's great. You have to go to Beijing in two days, so I'll help you clean up!"

Saying that, Sun Sanniang was about to go into the house to help Zhao Paner pack her luggage and cages, Uncle De said anxiously:

"Ms. Zhao, if I have something to say, I'll just say it straight!"

At this time, Zhao Pan'er had just made tea and was coming out with a tea tray. Hearing that Uncle De had something to say, he stopped at the door and looked at him with Sun Sanniang.

"I didn't come to pick you up to Beijing. The master was lucky enough to be married by a virtuous concubine in the palace. After Guyu, he will marry Gao Observer's daughter!"

"Marriage?"

Zhao Pan'er was stunned, her eyes were in a trance, and her ears were buzzing even more. Sun Sanniang glanced at her worriedly, then looked at Uncle De who was full of pride and asked loudly:
"What high observation?"

"After the Guangji Army's Jiedu observation stay, the Deputy Commander of the Infantry Army Gao Hu!"

Uncle De read aloud, with such a long list of titles, Sun Sanniang didn't know how high the so-called Gao Guan was, but she just felt that he should be much more powerful than the county magistrate of Qiantang, so she didn't know what to say for a while, Zhao Pan'er supported the door frame, looked at Uncle De and said in a sad voice:

"Can you say that again!"

"Master Ouyang is going to marry Gao Hu's daughter!"

Uncle De said it again, and Zhao Paner felt dizzy for a while, and then suddenly passed out, the tea tray in his hand fell, and the tea fruit and tea that had been prepared to entertain Uncle De spilled all over the floor. Before he passed out, Zhao Paner vaguely saw Yuan Xudong He ran over, hugged himself in his arms, kept opening and closing his lips, but couldn't understand what he was saying at all, did Ouyang Xu really change his mind?
