Traveling through the barren years, I have a system and am not afraid of anything
Chapter 399 Soft sedan chair
Tian Quanyou had some doubts at first, but since the person was dead, he didn't ask any more questions.
"The person in the ancestral grave is not Tian Xihai!"
The real Tian Xihai is still alive, and it is very likely that he is Chen Ping.
"It's not Brother Xihai who is buried in the ancestral grave? Then where did Brother Xihai go? Why did those people lie to us back then? And they killed sister-in-law Xihai?"
The old village chief couldn't understand the mystery at all.
"Your brother Xihai is probably the prefect Chen Ping! You also said that Tian Xihai's wife was killed. Isn't this a matter of obvious lice on the bald man's head?"
It's not uncommon for people to abandon their useless wives after becoming famous, but it's rare to see many people cheating their wives to death.
The Imperial Master couldn't help but look at Tian Tian.
"Everything will be clear when the prefect arrives!"
Tian Tian's face was a little cold. If Tian Xihai really killed his wife and harmed Tian San for the sake of glory and wealth, she would never let him go.
"Xihai is not that kind of person. Even if he obtains the honor, he will not harm Hongmei!"
Tian Quanyou didn't believe it.
Tian Xihai belongs to the Tian family, and the Tian family will not be ungrateful people who abandon their wives and children.
"Dad, people's hearts are fickle, and I dare not say anything. Since Chen Ping has become the richest man's son-in-law, it means that what he covets is wealth. What can some people not do for their own desires?"
Throughout the ages, there have been many such things. Tian Tian's grandfather loved hearing about the guillotine case the most, and the story he told was similar to this one.
However, Chen Shimei in the story did not want the lives of his wife and children at first. Now it seems that Tian Xihai is more thoughtful and cruel than Chen Shimei.
"I understand. You said that Brother Xihai killed Hongmei for glory and wealth, and then became someone else's son-in-law?"
The old village chief finally understood.
"If Chen Ping is Tian Xihai, the unjust case back then will be clear!"
Tian Tian suddenly felt very sorry for Tian San. What kind of father was this?
"I don't believe it! Brother Xihai and Hongmei have a deep relationship. Even if Brother Xihai dies, he will not harm Hongmei!"
The old village chief was suddenly very excited. He didn't believe that Tian Xihai had harmed Tian San's mother and son, nor did he believe that Tian Xihai was Chen Ping.
"It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not, we will find out when Chen Ping comes!"
The old village chief and Tian Xihai are as close as brothers. Tian Xihai has an irreplaceable place in his heart. Now he can be forgiven for not believing it.
"I don't believe it either, but..."
Tian Quanyou seemed to have aged a lot in an instant.
He has experienced a lot and seen a lot. What does it mean to abandon his wife and children for a position of power?
Even if you are a nobleman in the royal palace, wouldn't you strangle your own daughter to death for the sake of wealth?
Tian Quan was confused for a moment. Compared with his wife and children, is power really that important?
"I think if Chen Ping was Tian Xihai, he might not come!"
The Imperial Master curled his lips with disdain.
"Yeah, I thought it was easy!"
Tian Tian directly threw the copper plate in his hand.
Tian Xihai is a person who left Tianjiacun. How could he return to Tianjiacun so easily? He doesn't dare!
"No matter what reason Chen Ping gave for refusing to come to Tianjiacun this time, it is enough to prove that he is Tian Xihai!"
If Chen Ping were not Tian Xihai, he would definitely come to Tianjia Village to discuss the development of the Northland at the invitation of the princess, and along the way, he would curry favor with Tian Tian, the real owner of the Northland.
But if Chen Ping was Tian Xihai, would he dare to come to Tianjiacun? In all likelihood, he wouldn't dare, and would even find a way to refuse Tian Tian's summons.
I just don’t know if Chen Ping regrets it now. After all, the Tian family is not the Tian family it used to be. Not to mention being as rich as the country, the so-called richest man in the North is definitely not as financially strong as the Tian family.
"If Chen Ping is really Tian Xihai, I will go to Beijing to complain!"
The old village chief almost broke one of his teeth.
"Although the Tian family is poor, they will not cling to the powerful. If he didn't want Sister-in-law Hongmei and didn't want to recognize the Tian family, the Tian family wouldn't have said anything, but he just used this shady and destructive method~"
The Tian family members were collectively silent.
If all this is true, then Chen Ping is the murderer of Tian Sanniang and the person who harmed Tian San for his whole life.
"I don't care, if Chen Ping is really Tian Xihai, not only will I disown him, I will kill him and bury him in the ancestral grave, so that he deserves his name!"
"Bah! Don't dirty the ground of ancestral graves!"
"He has harmed Tian San for his whole life! If this matter is true, our Tian family will never let it go!"
Except for a few elderly people, the villagers had no impression of Tian Xihai, but Tian San and the others were familiar with him.
The men of the Tian family were filled with resentment when they thought of the murder of their brothers who had grown up together.
The Tian family no longer wanted to celebrate, and everyone was looking forward to the arrival of the Northland officials.
"Sister-in-law, here we come, here we come!"
There are still two days left before New Year's Eve. The officials from the North finally arrived.
"Don't panic, let them go directly into the reception room of the princess's mansion!"
The Imperial Master and the Eighth Master calmly watched the carriages arriving at the foot of the mountain at the entrance of the valley.
"The Princess's Mansion is in a valley halfway up the mountain. It's inconvenient for a carriage to go up there. Would your lords take a soft sedan or walk?"
Tian Liuzi and the men of the Tian family were waiting at the foot of the mountain.
"This mountain is very steep. My legs and feet are not good, so of course I have to ride in a soft sedan!"
These officials were summoned and hurried to Tianjiacun.
"It costs one hundred taels for the soft sedan to go up the mountain and fifty taels for the descent. Sir, do you want to give me cash or a banknote?"
Tian Liuzi stretched out his hand and looked at the fat and big-eared county magistrate happily. He had to charge double money for this one.
"You still charge money? Are you not the princess's retainers?"
The fat county magistrate was a little reluctant.
"We are villagers at the foot of the mountain. If you don't want to ride in a soft sedan, that's fine. Please go up the mountain this way!"
Tian Liuzi moved his hand, and Xiaobai's silly brothers suddenly wandered onto the mountain road.
"Ah! Why are there tigers here!"
"Quick! Someone come quickly!"
"There are wolves. Look, are they a pack of wolves?"
The Northland officials were almost frightened to death. They were just summoned to see the princess, not to risk their lives in a heap of tigers and wolves!
"Comrades, don't be nervous. Our Lingshui County is poor, so there are many ferocious beasts in the mountains. We are used to it. If you are afraid, just take the villagers' soft sedan. If you are not afraid, just walk up with me!"
Master Linghe of Lingshui County looked at death with a look on his face, but other county magistrates rushed to Tian Liuzi one after another.
"Little brother, I will ride in the sedan chair. This is two hundred taels of silver. I rely on my little brother to take care of me going back and forth!"
What a joke, they are county magistrates after all, how can they risk their lives for one hundred and eighty taels of silver?
That is, the two poor ghosts in Lingshui County were so poor that they didn't even have enough money to ride in a soft sedan.
"It's easy to talk, gentlemen, line up here!"
Tian Liuzi prepared a total of two soft sedan chairs, and he could only send two people up at a time.
"This is mine, one hundred and fifty taels!"
The fat county magistrate was stingy and refused to let go of the banknotes in his hand.
"Master, what should I do if you go up?"
The fat county magistrate's master looked embarrassed.
The masters of other families have brought the master with them, what should he do? He had to walk up, but he didn’t want to feed the tiger!
