After I became a passerby, I saved the villain's family

Early the next morning.

Jiang Ruoli was having breakfast in the room.

"Cousin, the young master is here." Hua Rui came in and said.

Little cousin?

Jiang Ruoli quickly finished the porridge in her hand, stood up and walked out.

When I arrived at the flower hall, I saw Xie Zonglang standing in the middle of the hall.

"Little cousin."

Jiang Ruoli walked forward and bowed slightly.

When Xie Zonglang heard Jiang Ruoli's voice, his ears turned slightly red.

He turned around, not daring to look Jiang Ruoli in the eye, and stared at the pot of flowers in front of him.

"Mother asked me to go for a walk with you today," Xie Zonglang said softly.

Jiang Ruoli remembered.

My aunt did mention this matter during dinner last night.

It would be nice to go for a walk, since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and my third brother haven't arranged anything for today anyway.

"Okay little cousin, wait for me for a moment."

Jiang Ruoli went back to the house, changed her clothes, and walked out with Xie Zonglang.

She was just about to call Xiao Yujing and Jiang Cijin when she saw them walking towards her.

When Xiao Yujing saw Jiang Ruoli standing with Xie Zonglang, his eyes paused.

Then his face turned cold and the temperature around him dropped instantly.

Jiang Ci Jin couldn't help but shiver.

Why did the temperature suddenly drop?

Jiang Ruoli had no idea of ​​the danger coming.

"Third brother, Master Yun, where are you going?"

Jiang Ci Jin glanced at Xiao Yu Jing who was standing next to him.

"I thought I had nothing to do today, so I was just thinking of going out for a walk with you."

Little sister, you're on your own.

"Really? I was just about to go look for you guys, my little cousin said he would take us to the street."

Xie Zonglang wanted to say that you are not taking them, just taking yourself.

But when he met Xiao Yujing's cold gaze, he swallowed all his words back into his stomach.

"Then let's go."

As she spoke, Jiang Ruoli walked straight to Xiao Yujing without even looking at Xie Zonglang.

Seeing Xiao Yujing motionless, she reached out and tugged at his sleeve.

"Let's go, Master Yun."

Xiao Yujing's gloomy face suddenly brightened.

With a faint smile on his lips, he walked to Jiang Ruoli's side.

Jiang Ci Jin was amazed at what was happening behind him.

My little sister is amazing.

Your Highness the Crown Prince must have practiced face changing!

Several people walked toward the street.

The streets in Jiangnan are very different from those in Kyoto.

The goods sold in the street market here are more novel and interesting, and the variety is richer.

Jiang Ruoli was overwhelmed by the various strange and weird things.

She was choosing in front and Xiao Yujing was paying in the back.

In a short while, I bought a lot of things.

Jiang Ci Jin followed leisurely with a paper bag in his hand.

Even someone as slow-witted as Xie Zonglang could sense something was amiss between the two people in front of him.

Looking at Xie Zonglang's gradually gloomy expression, Jiang Ci Jin grinned.

I'm afraid that my little sister is the only one who hasn't noticed the Crown Prince's intentions!

The few of them had lunch on the street, and Jiang Ruoli took Jiang Ci Jin to play a round of wooden horse before returning home.

It was getting late, so Jiang Ruoli and the Xie family finished their breakfast and returned to their room to tidy up.

Jiang Ruoli showed Hua Rui her spoils of the day, and happily placed the small wooden horse that Xiao Yujing had put on her at the head of the bed.

Although this pony is carved out of wood, it has a round shape and looks cute, which is really adorable.

Hua Rui looked at her cousin who was happy on the bed and couldn't help but sigh: She is still a little girl after all...

"Cousin, do you like this little wooden horse very much?" Hua Rui asked with a smile.

Jiang Ruoli nodded.

"Yes, Mr. Yun helped me put it on. Isn't it cute?"

Jiang Ruoli stretched the small wooden horse in her hand in front of the pistil.

"What my cousin likes is naturally very cute." Hua Rui couldn't help but say, "Mr. Yun is really good to my cousin."

Jiang Ruoli paused, then laughed.

Yes, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always been very good to her.

And the Jiang family.

And there is Princess Yuyao.

They were all very nice to her.

But why is the original body unwilling to accept these people?

Jiang Ruoli looked at the little wooden horse lying quietly in her hands and fell into deep thought...

After a good sleep, Jiang Ruoli dressed neatly and walked out of the room the next day.

As soon as she arrived at the main courtyard, she saw Xiao Yujing and Jiang Cijin already waiting for her.

They agreed to go to Yangping County to investigate today.

Yangping County is next to Deguang County. The two counties are very close, and we arrived at our destination in no time.

Entering Yangping County, Jiang Ruoli opened the car window and looked at the street.

Different from the prosperous Deguang County, the merchants in Yangping County are very simple, with only a few people buying things on the streets.

Although it was not very lively, it was quite ordinary, just like an ordinary street market.

Nothing seems out of the ordinary.

Jiang Ruoli withdrew her gaze, turned around and sat down.

"It seems there is no problem?" Jiang Ruoli said.

Xiao Yujing and Jiang Cijin looked at each other and noticed clues in each other's eyes.

"No problem, that's the biggest problem." Xiao Yujing said.

How to say?

Jiang Ruoli was puzzled.

"Look at those vendors. Although they are better dressed than ordinary people, their clothes are brand new and obviously they have just been worn for a short time."

Xiao Yujing explained to her.

Jiang Ruoli looked at the vendors outside again.

indeed.

No matter how rich the vendors are, it is impossible for everyone to wear new clothes.

"Besides, the people of Yangping County make their living from the salt mines, and most of the men in the families go to work in the salt fields. How come there are so many people doing business?"

Although Yangping County and Deguang County are closely adjacent to each other, the ways of making a living in the two counties are completely different.

Yangping County is close to the sea and has rich salt mines. Salt making has been the main industry for generations, and most families, young and old, make a living in the salt fields.

Since Deguang County does not have rich salt mine resources and salt-making technology, it mainly engages in business.

Jiang Ruoli nodded. So that's it.

"Also, you can see that the vendors have thick calluses on their right hands. These are clearly the marks of people who hold knives for many years."

"As soon as our carriage entered the street, the vendors kept a close eye on us."

"I'm afraid our carriage is the only one on this street that is not their own."

Jiang Ruoli looked at a vendor and saw that the man had a fierce look in his eyes and was staring at their carriage.

Jiang Ruoli was so scared that she sat back down quickly.

Phew, it’s really scary.

"Then these people..."

Jiang Ruoli looked at Xiao Yujing.

"Well, there was no one in the original street market."

These vendors were all disguised as people arranged by the county magistrate.

Moreover, the murderous intent in these people's eyes was enough to prove that they were not ordinary soldiers, but had truly killed people and seen blood.

Jiang Ruoli was shocked.

So many vendors, are they all fake?

"They must have received the news in advance and knew that someone from Kyoto was coming to investigate the salt field, so they created the illusion that the people were living and working in peace and contentment."

That's why he left Beijing early, just to find out something in advance.

Unexpectedly, he arrived three days earlier than the Kyoto team, and Wei Kangyuan was already ready.

The depth of his scheming is self-evident.

but......

Xiao Yujing looked at the "vendors" outside who were full of loopholes.

If Wei Kangyuan thought that he was a pampered young master, then he really underestimated him!
