Crossing the Extreme Rampage

Chapter 321 That Exquisite Wine Gourd

Liu Yu turned and left.

At this time, the sky was completely dark, and the bright stars were embedded in the sky one after another, adding sparkling light to the dark sky.

Tang Yuanming dragged Xu Zhengfeng into the room, and said with a relaxed expression, "Take a break, the matter is finally settled."

"After tossing for so long, there should be a result."

Xu Zhengfeng took out a torch and lit the lantern on the table, the soft orange light dispelled the darkness in the room and brought a lingering warmth.

Tang Yuanming stared at Xu Zhengfeng for a while, then pulled him onto his lap, wrapped his arms around his waist, and finally could be alone with Zhengfeng, "Zhengfeng, I really like this quiet environment, hugging him quietly like this looking at you."

Xu Zhengfeng smiled and nodded, "I like it too, I feel very happy."

Tang Yuanming put his chin on Xu Zhengfeng's shoulder, sniffed the scent of his body, it was refreshing and sunny, "I also like the smell of your body, it always smells so comfortable."

Xu Zhengfeng turned his face slightly, "Are you trying to compliment me in disguise?"

Tang Yuanming smiled slightly, "You found out."

After staying quietly for a while, Xu Zhengfeng said, "Eat dinner and go to bed early, and I will definitely get up early tomorrow."

"Listen to you, I hope everything goes well."

"Ah."

……

Compared with the tranquility and warmth of the side courtyard, the atmosphere of the main courtyard next door is a bit...

Lan Mingyu sat on the chair, lowered his eyebrows, as if he was angry, "Qi, you shouldn't have come."

Sitting next to him, Wei Yaoqi said in a gentle and loving voice, "You are here, I am worried about your safety, how could you not come?"

Lan Mingyu turned his head to look at him, feeling helpless and moved, "As soon as you come, our plan may come to naught, and what can I do?"

"If the plan is ruined, it will be ruined. It's not important to you. It's a big deal to redeploy. But if something happens to you, it will be a devastating blow to me."

Wei Yaoqi never regarded other things as more important than Lan Mingyu.

Lan Mingyu's heart throbbed for a while, his eyes gradually became warmer, and he whispered, "I can't say no to you."

"Don't worry, I have already arranged everything, and our previous efforts will not be in vain."

Wei Yaoqi thought to himself that he would never be able to escape Ming Yu's palm in this life, just looking at him made him feel infinitely happy.

Lan Mingyu felt relieved, even when they came, they couldn't drive people away, "You just need to know it in your heart."

"Ah."

Liu Yu's voice sounded outside the door, "Your Majesty, someone has found it."

"Bring people up."

Liu Yu paused and said, "He committed suicide by swallowing poison."

A trace of surprise flashed across Lan Mingyu's eyes, but he didn't feel too surprised. The other party committed a murder under his nose. It would be a matter of time before he found out. He should have been prepared, "Did you commit suicide without saying anything?"

"Yes."

Lan Mingyu said lightly, "Let's deal with it."

"Yes."

……

One night is enough time for the people under him to make full preparations.

At dawn the next day, the group set off for Lujia Village.

Arrive at the entrance of Lujia Village unimpeded.

They dismounted one after another.

Looking at the majestic mountains behind the village, Tang Yuanming leaned into Xu Zhengfeng's ear and said, "There are dragons and tigers here, and there are phoenixes and dragons. The Fengshui is very good."

Xu Zhengfeng looked at the messy environment at the entrance of the village and the crumbling thatched cottages in the village, "Feng Shui is good? Then why are the people here so poor?"

Tang Yuanming frowned slightly, "Because there is a fly in the ointment here, which ruins the good Fengshui here."

Xu Zhengfeng asked, "What's the fly in the ointment?"

Tang Yuanming pointed to the back, "There is a problem with the direction of the entrance of the village. Let me tell you, if the direction of the entrance of Lujia Village is facing the south, the tombs of whose ancestors are buried here, and whose descendants will definitely pass the exam." A martial artist!"

Xu Zhengfeng sighed, "That's really a pity."

When Tang Yuanming was walking forward, he grabbed Xu Zhengfeng's wrist and said, "Go, follow the emperor and noble lords in."

Lujia Village is extremely poor, there are more than [-] old thatched huts leaking everywhere, the courtyard walls are all broken fences, and chickens and dogs occasionally show their heads on the street, and they are all listless and lifeless.

Wei Yaoqi and Lan Mingyu had never seen such a poor place, nor did they expect such a poor place to exist in the Great Wei Kingdom, not to mention that it was not very far from the capital.

Both of them glanced sharply at the submissive county magistrate, how did they become the county magistrate with this level of governance?

The magistrate of the county immediately burst into cold sweat, his nerves tensed suddenly, and he wailed in his heart. He is doomed now. In fact, he doesn't know how there is such a poor place...

The children who came out to play in Lujia Village immediately dispersed when they saw strangers coming to the village, and then hid in the corner of the wall and poked their heads out to look, but they did not dare to approach.

When the villagers saw officers and soldiers entering the village, they were so frightened that they grabbed their children and ran home, closing the gate tightly.

Everyone, "..."

Tang Yuanming looked around, and finally saw a little boy at the base of a wall, about six or seven years old, there was no fear in his eyes, but he was very curious.

Turning around, he said to Xu Zhengfeng, "Zhengfeng, help me pick the only apple on that tree."

That tree grew on the edge of the village, and the bottom fruit must have been picked and eaten, leaving only the top one.

The location where the apple grows is very tricky, you can only look at it, you can't climb the tree to pick it, and you can't hit it with a long pole.

It is estimated that it is because of this that he survived the "difficulty".

Without further ado, Xu Zhengfeng flew over to pick the apples, and handed them to Tang Yuanming, "Here."

After Tang Yuanming took the apple, he spread his hand towards the child, "Come here and answer me a question, and I'll give you this apple."

The little boy was not afraid at all, his eyes sparkled, and he responded, "Really?"

Tang Yuanming smiled, trying to make himself look more friendly, "I never lie."

"Then... that's fine." The little boy looked at the big apple in Tang Yuanming's hand without blinking, and then walked over slowly.

Seeing that Tang Yuanming hadn't moved, he believed his words, ran over and grabbed the apple, and carried it on his back, "What do you want to ask me?"

Tang Yuanming's question was simple, "How can I get to Lizheng's house?"

The little boy seemed to be vigilant, "Why are you looking for Grandpa Lizheng?"

Tang Yuanming smiled and said, "We have something to do with Lizheng, so ask him a question like I asked you just now."

"Oh, that's it." The little boy nodded, "Then come with me."

Just like that, a large group of people, led by a child, came to Lao Lizheng's home in Lujia Village.

After seeing it, everyone couldn't help but be shocked. The man in Lujia Village was an old man in his 80s. Not only his hair and beard were all white, but his teeth were almost gone.

But don't look at his poor family, but he is holding a delicate wine gourd in both hands.

There are still a few villagers at home who are talking to him, looking very excited.

Liu Yu reached out and knocked on the door panel, attracting everyone's attention.

After the villagers saw the people in the yard, they were startled and quickly hid inside. After hiding, they realized that they had done nothing wrong, they were the sufferers, and they were definitely not here to catch them, so they boldly came out .

The county magistrate, master, and yamen servants are all officials, so they are easy to recognize. The villagers came to salute, "I have met the magistrate."

"Exemption."

Among them was a very majestic young man, although his clothes were old, but he stood upright, with a bit of courage, and he protected the villagers behind him.

"May I ask what the county magistrate is doing with so many people in our backcountry?"

The emperor is here, the magistrate would not dare to make a mistake, he turned his head to look at Wei Yaoqi, waiting for him to make up his mind.

Before Wei Yaoqi could speak, Lan Mingyu suppressed the anxiety in his heart and said first, "We are here to find someone."

Everyone looked at each other, "Looking for someone?"

"Who are you looking for?" You are here to find someone, not something, so don't be too nervous, the young man is a little relieved.

Lan Mingyu was burning with anxiety, but her voice was very calm, "Did you pick up a baby in your village 12 years ago?"

Everyone fell into memories...

Tang Yuanming said suddenly, "Call all the 12-year-old children in your village here. If you find the children, you will be thanked."

The young man looked at him in embarrassment and said, "Master, there are no children around 12 years old in our village."

Lan Mingyu's doubtful eyes swept over with pressure, "Really?"

The young man was so startled by Lan Mingyu's powerful aura that he couldn't help taking a step back, "Young master, it's true, why don't I call all the villagers over right away, so you can see for yourself?"

Wei Yaoqi patted Lan Mingyu on the shoulder, signaling him to be calm, "Who in your village is most familiar with the affairs of the village?"

Lan Mingyu glanced at him, with a look in his eyes that would hurt Wei Yaoqi's heart.

The young man turned sideways and pointed to Lao Lizheng in the house, "He is my father, the oldest man in the village, but he has a very good memory. He knows everything that happened in the village."

"Call him out, I want to ask questions." Wei Yaoqi glanced inside, this man is so old, can he really remember such a long time ago?

"Yes." The young man hurriedly turned around and walked into the room. After taking two steps, he realized that he listened too much to the majestic man's words, and he listened so naturally, just like his subordinates, nobles are nobles, The momentum is completely different from those of ordinary people like them.

Lao Li was gently pushing away the hand of the young man who had reached out to help him, and walked out tremblingly, still holding that exquisite wine gourd in his hand, which seemed very precious.

"Young masters, why did you come to my Lujia Village?"

Lan Mingyu took a step in the direction of Lao Lizheng, "Old man, let's look for a child who is about 12 years old. Is there one in the village?"

Lao Li was looking at the sky and thinking for a while, "It seems that someone brought a baby back 12 years ago, but the baby was sent away."

Everyone was shocked.

Lan Mingyu's face turned pale, and her body was even more shaky, "Where were you sent?"

Lao Lizheng rolled his cloudy eyes, "It's like this. Every family in our village is poor. After the baby was brought back to be raised for a while, the man in the family died in an accident. The child couldn't afford it, and there was no one in the village. If the family can afford to support the child, they send it away."

This is not what Lan Mingyu wants to hear, "I asked where the child was sent?"

Lao Li was getting old, so he said slowly, "Son, go and call your Uncle Lu over, and ask him who the child was given to?"

"Yes, Dad."
