happy life through time

After a few days of peace, Tong Yan was still studying, and sometimes went out to visit Jiangzhou with Liu Dafu to enjoy the scenery of Jiangzhou. When he didn't want to go out, he would study at home.

On this day, Tong Yan went out.

This time, Liu Dafu did not follow him.

Sometimes Tong Yan wanted to walk alone, but Liu Dafu didn't force him to be with him, but he seemed to be addicted to fighting with Nangong Xiaochen, and it seemed that something was wrong with him if he only made eight or ten moves every day.

Tong Yan just laughed it off, and didn't object to Liu Dafu's doing this. The stronger Liu Dafu's ability, the better.

But he didn't know that Liu Dafu's emotions had always been suppressed, and he seemed to be venting something when he fought with Nangong Xiaochen. With Nangong Xiaochen as the number one sandbag, he would naturally not let it go, but Nangong Xiaochen suffered.

Tong Yan walked to a small stall and was about to eat a bowl of noodles, but there was a commotion in the crowd.

Tong Yan looked at the crowd going in one direction, grabbed a person casually, and asked, "Brother, what happened in front?"

The person caught by Tong Yan was a scholar. When he saw Tong Yan, he said anxiously, "Didn't you hear about it, brother? Mr. Wang became the chief examiner of Jiangzhou?"

"Well, I heard it, but, what's the matter? Can it cause such a big commotion?"

The young man sighed and said: "Ten years ago, someone intended to rebel. Master Wang first arrived in Jiangzhou and found a base for rebellion. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a Dashan family in Jiangzhou. The Patriarch of the Dong family was the one who participated in the rebellion ten years ago. He never thought he would dare to hide in our Jiangzhou. Fortunately, Mr. Wang found the evidence, and the Dong family was sentenced to beheaded. Today is the day of execution."

"Treason? The Dong family?"

When Tong Yan heard the word "Dong's family", something flashed through his mind, but he couldn't remember it for a while, so he stopped thinking about it, thought about it in his heart, and walked to the center of the crowd with the flow of people.

A passage was opened in the middle of the street, and several people in chains were paraded through the street by officers and soldiers.

Standing in the crowd, Tong Yan also saw such a family.

It looked like a very ordinary family, a middle-aged couple, a pair of brothers and sisters, the girl was only seven or eight years old, the boy was twelve or thirteen years old, and there were several servants behind them.

Tong Yan didn't know what to think, this family looked very ordinary, were they really the rebellious Dong family?

However, since he came here, the world has always been peaceful. It has been ten years since the rebellion happened. Although he had heard about it before, he didn't take it seriously.

Today, seeing these people parading the streets, I can't imagine that these people would actually rebel!They seemed to have not eaten for several days, they were very haggard, and the little girl was trembling even more. They didn't know anything. Such a young person really knows what treason is, can they rebel?

This is also the characteristic of this era. One person makes a mistake, and the whole family suffers. Rebellion is a serious crime, which affects the whole family.

In fact, similar things are not absent in modern times, but they are not so obvious and heartless, but this kind of blatant copying and beheading, implicating the entire family, is the first time Tong Yan has seen it.

The comments from passers-by did not reach Tong Yan's ears. The thrown eggs, rotten vegetable leaves, and all kinds of things that could be thrown all over the street were thrown on the family. There was a weird smell all the time.

Suddenly, someone threw a piece of wood and hit the little girl. The little girl didn't stand still and fell to the ground, but she couldn't help crying, but she could clearly see that she was crying by pursing her mouth.

Seeing this, the officers and soldiers at the back immediately stepped forward, whipped the girl, and hit the girl on the body. The girl who was about to get up fell to the ground again, but she still held back her tears.

Seeing this, the boy immediately stepped forward to protect his sister, letting the whip beat him.

The girl cried out in pain: "Brother, brother..."

"Sister, don't be afraid, brother will protect you."

The middle-aged man in front saw his son and daughter beating violently by the guards. He was so angry that he rushed towards the officers and soldiers, but was blocked by the officers and soldiers.

When the officers and soldiers saw that he resisted, they also became angry. The sound of whipping filled the surroundings, and the family of four was severely beaten.

Tong Yan couldn't bear to look at it again, but at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from behind: "Officer, please let the four of them go, Mr. Dong can't be a traitor, he is a very kind person."

Tong Yan noticed the voice coming from behind, and a bad premonition suddenly surged in his heart. He turned around to look, but saw a person hiding behind him, and his figure just blocked his body. When the officers and soldiers looked over, they only looked It's Tong Yan's one.

Tong Yan was stunned for a moment, realizing something, before he had time to react, someone pushed hard from behind, Tong Yan was taken a step forward, and walked out of the crowd.

Immediately, the surroundings became quiet, and everyone's eyes fell on Tong Yan. Tong Yan turned his head to look, and the person who pushed him had disappeared in the crowd.

Tong Yan looked nervously at the officers and soldiers who were staring at him, and smiled foolishly: "Officer, officer...I, my servant..."

"You were the one talking just now? Are you with them?"

Tong Yan was shocked: "No, no, I don't know them, really, this is the first time I've seen them today!"

"Stop talking nonsense!" The officers and soldiers turned pale, and said to the officers and soldiers behind them: "That's his accomplice, arrest him!"

The leading officers and soldiers immediately stepped forward and surrounded Tong Yan regardless of the three sevens and twenty ones.

A sense of crisis arose spontaneously, Tong Yan took a step to the side, and immediately, a black whip hit the place where he was standing just now, with a thud, disgusting the dust, leaving an obvious mark on the west side, if you look carefully , seeing the ground sinking a few centimeters, Tong Yan was terrified.

Looking at the officer and soldier holding the whip, Tong Yan regretted it. Curiosity can really kill people. Why did he come to see the excitement? Look, something happened!But he also knew that it was useless to say anything now.

At this time, a cold voice came over, and the surroundings were immediately quiet: "What happened?"

"My lord, my lord is here!"

"Master Wang? Could it be Mr. Wang from the capital, the chief examiner this time?"

"Besides him, who else can catch these rebels? How dare you dare to rebel and live impatiently!"

Lord Wang?Wang Dingjun?

Tong Yan was puzzled, followed the sound, and saw a young man wearing a black official robe riding a horse, the horse's hooves stepped on the ground, making a rattling sound, and from these sounds, Wang Dingjun's figure slowly appeared In Tong Yan's sight.

Tong Yan's eyes widened, because he saw that the man wearing an official robe and riding on the horse turned out to be the young man who was chasing after Gu Qingcheng that day. That young man turned out to be Wang Dingjun!

Looking at Wang Dingjun, Tong Yan only felt a chill pouring from his heart to the bottom of his head, and his whole body was chilly.

Seeing Wang Dingjun's arrival, the officers and soldiers immediately explained to him everything just now, and finally pointed at Tong Yan and said loudly: "My lord, I suspect that he is an accomplice of the rebellion, so I will delay him and behead him for public display."

Hearing the words "beheading for public display", Tong Yan's whole body stiffened. It has been less than a year since he came here, and his life has just started to improve. Are you going to die?

Unknown where the courage came from, Tong Yan acted like he was going all out, and stepped forward and said: "Student Tong Yan, I have met Mr. Wang."

Wang Dingjun's eyes fell on Tong Yan, as if he was judging whether this person was a rebel or not, but the more he looked, the more confused he became.

Tong Yan stood there firmly, Wang Dingjun didn't speak, and he didn't dare to speak at will, and Wang Dingjun didn't give him a chance to speak.

"Put him in prison and interrogate him in three days."

"Yes, my lord."

The officers and soldiers were about to arrest Tong Yan, but Tong Yan resisted. However, at this moment, a group of black-clothed men and horses suddenly appeared in the crowd. There were a dozen of them in total. Looking at the cold light, for some reason, Tong Yan's bad premonition became stronger and stronger.

The moment the men in black reappeared, they immediately attacked the nearby officers and soldiers.

There were bursts of screams and panic in the crowd, and they fled in all directions, and the scene was chaotic.

The officers and soldiers beside Tong Yan were also slashed and fell to the ground, dripping with blood. Tong Yan took the opportunity to blend into the crowd.

"Wow..." Tong Yan heard a child crying.

I saw a seven or eight-year-old boy standing helplessly in the middle of the street, being bumped and about to fall to the ground.

Tong Yan looked at the chaotic crowd nearby, and from time to time someone was stepped on and fell to the ground.

The adults were okay, and got up quickly, but the child, who was only seven or eight years old, couldn't do it.

Unable to bear it any longer, in the end, Tong Yan saw the child fell to the ground, so he dodged the nearby crowd and walked over, picked up the child and left quickly.

This scene fell into Wang Dingjun's eyes. Wang Dingjun's eyes were gloomy, and he ordered that the rebels must be caught, but he chased the fleeing accomplices.

Tong Yan hugged the child and came to an alley where there were few people, the child would not be bumped, and no one would come over: "Little friend, you stay here, and when the crowd disperses, you go home, you know?" ?”

The child looked at Tong Yan, held back tears and nodded.

Tong Yan patted his head, turned and left.

But the child plucked up his courage and shouted: "Big brother,...I, you...what's your name? I want to know the name of big brother!"

Tong Yan looked back at the child, smiled and said, "I am Tong Yan."

After Tong Yan finished speaking, he got up and left without looking at the child again.

But at this moment, he heard the sound of a horse's hooves in a hurry. Looking back, it turned out that Wang Dingjun was chasing him on horseback. The menacing approach was definitely not a good thing.

Tong Yan didn't run away, no matter how fast he was, he couldn't be faster than a galloping horse, but he didn't admit defeat. Instead, he picked up a stone on the ground, narrowed his eyes, and didn't know what he was thinking.

The arrival of Wang Dingjun blocked Tong Yan's way: "Bravely rebelling against the thief, you can catch him soon!!"

Tong Yan cupped his hands and said: "My lord, I am not a rebel, there must be a misunderstanding."

"Is it a misunderstanding? After I go back, I will find out the truth!"

"My lord, Tong Yan in Xia'anle County came to Jiangzhou just now when he saw Qiu Wei coming. He is definitely not a rebel. Please be careful."

Tong Yan grasped the stone in his hand, but watched Wang Dingjun with his eyes. Wang Dingjun did not change anyone's attitude, it seemed that he must be taken away, Tong Yan was shocked and cold.

For a moment, he felt that Wang Dingjun was coming for him.
