Rebirth of the High Family's Beloved

Chapter 131 Seeing the Great Evil in the World

Watching the bandits being taken away, Xie Chengyi said, "Xu Zhuangyuan, I haven't agreed to accept them yet, let alone give them the same treatment as the regular army."

Xu Zhengran said: "It's only a matter of time."

He straightened his clothes, looked around the entire Fengyang Village, and sighed: "It's really a nice place."

Xu Zhengran stared at Fengyang Mountain in silence for a long time, then said, "I should go to the palace to report. I will leave first."

After saying that, he bowed and prepared to leave.

Xie Chengyi said, "Don't you need to meet the big boss?"

"She's gone, gone. She's not as easy to fool as her subordinates. If she knew that her stronghold was destroyed because of me, she would probably chase me to the ends of the earth."

Qiu Fuqiu added fuel to the fire, "That's what you deserve."

Xu Zhengran smiled and glanced at Qiu Fuqiu, "Girl, we'll meet again. Next time we meet, I'll take you with me to be a bandit."

The hearty laughter gradually faded away, just like his handsome figure, slowly disappearing on the mountain path.

This was the first time Qiu Fuqiu had seen a top scholar like Xu Zhengran. She turned to Xie Chengyi and asked, "Is he really a top scholar? The kind that studies well?"

In her impression, shouldn't the top scholar be a nerd who is old-fashioned, honest and prudent? He should be cautious in his conduct and enter the Hanlin Academy to become an official after passing the imperial examination?

Unlike Xu Zhengran, who is smooth, cunning, and yet lives so freely.

Xie Chengyi looked at Xu Zhengran's disappearing figure and recalled the announcement of the results last year.

"He was indeed the new number one scholar chosen by the emperor in the 22nd year of Tianqing. In terms of talent, he was ranked among the top three in the world, but he was unruly and disliked being restrained. The emperor originally wanted to give him a position as a compiler in the Hanlin Academy. The imperial edict was sent to his home, but when it was time to receive the edict, he disappeared. He left a letter saying that he was going to see the greatest evil in the world and eliminate injustice. The emperor was furious about this."

Qiu Fuqiu opened her mouth slightly in shock. She never expected that there would be someone who dared to disobey the imperial edict.

"and after?"

"Later, I heard that many mountain strongholds that had been entrenched for many years collapsed one after another, and even the local government didn't know what was going on."

"He did all this?"

Xie Chengyi nodded, "It is said that every destroyed stronghold has a wise and incomparable military advisor who disappeared after the stronghold was destroyed. When I saw him today, I guessed it, but I didn't expect that he would come to Dongdu. It seems that his so-called seeing the greatest evil in the world and eliminating the injustice in the world has been accomplished."

Listening to what Xie Chengyi said, Qiu Fuqiu felt more and more weird. How could this person be a scholar? He was clearly a charlatan who saw great evil in the world and eliminated injustice. Could he be here to cultivate immortality and seek the truth?

Thinking of the fact that Xie Chengyi had also captured the leader of Fengyang Village, Qiu Fuqiu asked, "What are you going to do with the leader of Fengyang Village? Will you also take him into the Tiger Power Army?"

Xie Chengyi walked behind the team, looking at the Mountain Resort getting closer and closer, and said, "The Tiger Power Army does not accept women."

Qiu Fuqiu: “!!!”

The bandit leader turned out to be a woman!

Although the Fengyang mountain bandits were not wiped out, they were incorporated into the Huwei Army. Xie Chengyi wrote a military report and sent it to the Dongdu Palace, asking the bandit leader what to do with him.

A few days later, Xie Chengyi received a reply from Dongdu, saying that the bandit leader Lin Fengyang had been handed over to the Dali Temple to regulate his character and behavior, and would be released after his behavior improved.

As for Xie Chengyi, who had completed the task of suppressing the bandits, Emperor Tianqing asked him to stay in the Mountain Resort for some time and told him that a flower-viewing banquet would be held in the resort in a month or so and he must attend.

Qiu Fuqiu read the letter from the palace while lying on the desk. She laughed happily, "They are going to hold a flower viewing banquet, and they specially invite you to participate. Are they going to reward you?"

Xie Chengyi couldn't guess it, but his intuition told him that this matter might not be that simple.

Spring comes quickly. It was a barren scene a few days ago, but after the rain, the yellow-brown twigs have sprouted new buds, and the tender green branches are gently dancing in the spring breeze.

In just half a month, it is already the splendor of spring.

This flower-viewing banquet was originally supposed to be hosted by Concubine Qiu, but a few days before the banquet, Concubine Qiu suddenly caught a cold, so Princess Shen Furong had to attend on her behalf.

The ladies and ladies who were invited went to the Summer Resort one after another.

Yan Ci had known about this flower-viewing banquet for a long time, but he did not expect it to be held in the Mountain Resort. When he thought about the fact that Qiu Fuqiu had already followed Marquis Yongding to the Mountain Resort, Yan Ci wondered if Emperor Tianqing had done it on purpose.

But at this flower-viewing banquet, Marquis Yongding and Qiu Fuqiu were different matters, and the one Yan Ci cared about was Xie Chengyin.

There were thousands of women, and in order to pick one that would satisfy Xie Chengyin, Yan Ci carefully inquired about the noble ladies who would attend the flower-viewing banquet before leaving.

Yan Ci made many comparisons of his appearance, character, and family background, but after comparing them over and over again, he found that he felt a little upset for no reason.

Before I could figure out why, I heard Yan Cheng's voice coming from outside.

"Thirteenth sister, are you ready? Let's go together."

Yan Ci dressed neatly and walked out the door, he saw Xie Chengyin and Yan Cheng standing in the corridor.

Yan Cheng was wearing a sky blue suit, and with his gentle and refined temperament, he looked like a nobleman.

Xie Chengyin didn't look very happy today, and his black clothes made him look even more unapproachable.

Yan Ci took the initiative to avoid Xie Chengyin, fearing that he would be accidentally injured, and turned to ask Yan Cheng: "Are you also going to the Summer Resort?"

Yan Cheng smiled and said, "Yes, His Majesty asked the Imperial Concubine to set up a men's table, allowing us young people to go together to have some fun."

As he spoke, Yan Cheng lowered his voice and leaned closer to Yan Ci, saying, "I guess the Imperial Concubine must be thinking about choosing a consort for Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Yan Ci almost laughed out loud, and quickly covered his mouth with his hand, agreeing, "It's possible."

I have to say that her second brother is quite smart. Although he had the wrong matchmaker in mind, it was still very good that he thought of matchmaking.

If Yan Cheng can think of it, then Xie Chengyin should be able to think of it too.

Thinking of this, Yan Ci couldn't help but raise his eyes and glance at Xie Chengyin secretly, but suddenly he met Xie Chengyin's eyes.

Xie Chengyin's deep eyes were staring at Yan Ci without blinking. When he saw Yan Ci looking at him, he still didn't show any intention of avoiding his gaze and looked straight at Yan Ci.

Yan Ci felt uneasy when he was looked at by such a gaze, and quickly turned away and said, "It's getting late, let's go."

Yan Cheng responded happily, "Okay!" and followed Yan Ci out.

Xie Chengyin walked slowly at the end with a cold face.

As soon as Yan Ci walked out of the door, he was stunned.

"Why just one carriage?"

Yan Cheng took the stool off the carriage and said, "There are only three of us, so one carriage is enough."
