When Liu Huan got up the next day, Su Yi had already gone to the county school with a letter of recommendation written personally by the town dean.

Changsheng was tidying up the grape trellis, removing all the dry leaves on top and cleaning up the bottom.

Liu Huan was in a good mood and shouted with a smile: "Brother Changsheng, let's go buy some groceries."

She couldn't wait to learn more about Qingyang County. She was in a hurry yesterday and didn't have a good look around.

The county town is different. Even the buildings are of a higher grade. Passers-by wear colorful clothes. It is rare to see people wearing coarse blue clothes. It may also be related to the location.

There are many things for sale, including pawnshops and money houses.

The places selling vegetables are uniformly divided. Many things are available here, the only thing missing is tofu. There is also very little chili pepper, and it is very expensive.

Just buying a few vegetables and meats cost her more than in town, which gave her a rough idea of ​​the prices.

Su Yi could smell the fragrance of food as soon as he reached the door. It was the unique aroma of Liu Huan’s cooking.

The fragrance wafts everywhere, making people hungry.

"Shi Tou is back and the meal is ready. How thoughtful, isn't it?" Liu Huan began to feel proud again.

She watched Su Yi take the first bite, holding her chin with both hands and raising her eyebrows, as if she would jump up and hit him if Su Yi said he didn't like it.

He meant to "make do".

Liu Huan knew his bad taste, and turned to Changsheng with a bright smile: "Brother Changsheng, do you think it tastes good?"

Changsheng felt the atmosphere around him suddenly turned cold, and could only nod mechanically: "Hmm...it's delicious."

Liu Huan was satisfied: "Then eat more"

Because he had just arrived at the new academy, Su Yi was always very busy. Two days ago, Liu Huan had already sent a letter to his family, telling them the address, and was waiting for the relief food to arrive.

Liu Huan would wander around the entrance of the academy when he had nothing to do. Looking at the academy which was twice as big as the one in town and the passers-by coming and going at the entrance, he couldn't help but sigh that people should always look towards the bright future.

On the way back, I passed by a high-end clothing store. Before I even touched the fabric, the shopkeeper said sarcastically, "This clothing is expensive. Don't touch it."

Liu Huan turned around and left, and on his way out he almost bumped into a young lady in a goose yellow skirt.

The maid next to him pushed her away and said, "Where did you come from, beggar? What should I do if you bump into my young lady?"

The shopkeeper was shocked when he saw what was happening, and gave Liu Huan another push before he could even stand firmly.

Changsheng quickly supported her outside the door, "Huanhuan, are you okay?"

The shopkeeper's eyes were full of disdain. "Look at you, you can't afford it, so why are you looking around? What if you bump into our Miss Guan?"

After glaring at her, she quickly followed Miss Guan and tried to show her courtesy.

Changsheng was angry and wanted to go forward to argue, but Liu Huan stopped him, "It's okay, Brother Changsheng, let's go back."

It would be a lie for Liu Huan to say that he was not angry, but this was in ancient times and it didn't make sense.

Even in the civilized twenty-first century, discrimination still exists. If you are weak, you will be bullied. This is an unchanging law, not to mention the ancient times with strict feudal hierarchy.

If this is the case in a county town, it is hard to imagine how crazy the rich and powerful people in big capitals like provincial capitals and the capital would be.

Compassion has never been her style; rolling in the mud and taking root is her character.

She was even in a good mood and bought a candied haws and strolled around the street. It was still early for cooking anyway.

She was just walking when she was suddenly caught.

Sometimes the ideas are just so unlucky.

Before she could see clearly who had arrested her, a group of soldiers came running up to her.

The person behind him said in a strong voice: "Don't move. Doesn't your county magistrate love the people like his own children? If you don't want her to die, let me go."

Liu Huan didn't know why he encountered such a dramatic plot. Isn't this something that only happens on TV?

She felt a cold touch on her neck, like a snake's tongue, which was creepy.

Big brother, can you hold the sword farther away? I’m afraid of hurting someone by mistake.

Changsheng was so anxious that he wanted to go forward but was afraid of angering the prisoner.

Sure enough, the commander of the officers and soldiers did not dare to act rashly: "Wu Gang, let go of the little girl, I can report to the adults and ask for a lighter sentence."

The man behind Liu Huan didn't listen to him at all: "Stop talking nonsense, make way for me, and prepare a horse, hurry up!"

The officer-in-chief waved his hand and his men left, presumably to prepare for the prisoners' demands.

After all, there are so many people watching around. The prisoner is important, but the reputation of the county magistrate is also crucial.

The prisoner grabbed Liu Huan's collar and backed away. Liu Huan felt the skin on his neck was scratched.

Oh my God, if it goes down a little bit more, it's the aorta, it will be fatal.

The commander of the soldiers saw this and kindly reminded him, "Wu Gang, hold the sword farther away. If you really hurt someone, you will definitely have no chance to escape."

After hearing this, Liu Huan felt that the knife on his neck was a little further away.

The two sides remained in a stalemate, waiting for the officers and soldiers to prepare the horses.

A few people dressed as scholars came from another road. They were all about fifteen or sixteen years old. Some of them were holding folding fans in their hands, looking very proud and comfortable.

A chubby boy said, "Hey, Brother Su, look, it looks like there are soldiers arresting people over there!"

Lian Lou also looked over, stretching his neck to see: "Really, it seems that the criminal is holding someone hostage."

Su Yi was not interested in this. If Lian Lou hadn't insisted on pulling him out, he would have gone back long ago.

Another thin one said: "She seems to be a little girl. What a beast."

The chubby boy continued, "I remember my brother said yesterday that they were hunting for a murderer these days. I heard that his methods were brutal and inhumane, and it has caused panic among the people."

It was for this reason that Su Yi looked over there for some unknown reason.

As soon as he saw it, he felt like his soul was about to fly away. The girl under the knife was none other than Liu Huan.

He took a deep breath and tried to keep himself calm: "Brother Guan, do you think the leader over there is your brother?"

The chubby boy moved closer: "Really? I didn't even notice it just now."

Su Yi saw Liu Huan trembling, she must be scared.

"Can you tell your brother that whatever that man wants can be granted, as long as he doesn't hurt the girl."

Lian Lou hurriedly asked: "Who is that little girl?"

Su Yi uttered two words from his throat, "My sister!"

Everyone was shocked. It turned out that the person who was held hostage was Su Yi's sister. What a coincidence.

The young man named Guan quickly led them over there and said, "I'll take you there right away, don't worry."

They walked around the crowd and came to the back of the team. They pulled a soldier behind them and told him about it. The soldier immediately stepped forward to report it. When the commander looked at Liu Huan, his expression became more complicated.

Su Yi hid in the crowd and saw that Liu Huan's neck was bloodshot. He felt as if someone was strangling his neck and he had difficulty breathing.

Suddenly he saw several people standing on the roofs around him, all holding arrows in their hands.

He knew that the officers and soldiers would definitely take the prisoners seriously, and he could not just sit there and wait to die.
