The Devil's Coming [Quick Transmigration]

It has to be said that people in any era cannot escape the temptation to gossip. This probably comes from the curiosity in human nature.

An ordinary kidnapping case involved the wealthy and powerful families in the capital, and also involved such outrageous and bloody things as holding the wrong child. Xu Mingjin was arrested, and his name appeared in the mouths of many people. What happened in the county government quickly spread in the county through word of mouth among the onlookers.

In this small place where entertainment activities are far from rich, such a gossip is enough to become a hot topic for many people when socializing, and it occupied the headlines of the county's hot news overnight. Especially this involves big figures who are out of reach for many people.

For a time, the city was full of people whispering.

"Do you think the story of the wrong child is true?"

"How could it be false? Didn't the fake prince admit it himself? I never thought that a noble family could be so negligent and let their child wander around for so many years."

"Well, who knows if it was real negligence or fake negligence. I think there is probably something wrong here. Who knows, someone is so bold that they deliberately changed the child!"

"Hiss - are they going to die? Once discovered, the whole family will be implicated."

"That's a noble family. If you take a chance, you will have wealth and honor for generations. In the future, your descendants will all be nobles. Who can not take the risk?"

"You have said so much, have you forgotten that the liar was directly imprisoned by the county magistrate! They all said it was kidnapping, No one would really believe that he is the prince of the Duke of Wei's mansion, and believe the nonsense that the wrong child was taken away! "

"Yes, how can you believe the words of a kidnapper? I advise everyone to be cautious and not to casually associate with the Duke of Wei's mansion. Once you anger the noble, even the emperor can't save you!"

"You also said that you can't casually associate with the noble, how dare a kidnapper use the banner of the Duke of Wei's mansion to deceive people? Don't say you can't see it, that person is not a kidnapper at all. The reason why he became a kidnapper is that the county magistrate wants to please the real prince who came out of our mountain ravine..."

"Hush, hush, hush! You really drank two taels of yellow urine, and you dare to say anything! I will pretend that I haven't talked to you today, and I haven't drunk with you. Don't say you have seen me..."

-No matter how powerful the Duke of Wei's mansion is, it is still far away from the horizon, and the emperor is far away. What's more, Xu Mingjin has been arrested, and the people are not afraid to gossip about him. The county magistrate is the local emperor of the entire Yu County, and no one dares to say anything bad about him.

Therefore, except for the drunk and crazy guy, most of the people's discussion focuses on Xu Mingjin.

The unknown Shanglin Village has become even more lively.

There are all kinds of people visiting relatives and friends, sightseeing, and going to the countryside to buy food and herbs. If it weren't for the short time and the news didn't spread fast enough, there wouldn't be too many people rushing to Shanglin Village. After a few more days, when the news spreads more widely, I'm afraid more people will rush over from all directions.

The real purpose of these people can be guessed by anyone.

A prince of a public mansion is not a small figure in the capital, and in such a small place, many people can't reach him even if they tiptoe. If you miss such an opportunity to meet a noble person, you will regret it for the rest of your life.

But what most people don't know is that Su Ying did not return to Shanglin Village, but stayed in the county government mansion temporarily.

"Young Master, we are here."

Just when the whole county was in turmoil because of the exposure of Su Ying's life experience, a group of people from Shangjing entered the city.

The group was led by a young man with elegant demeanor. Among the entourage, there were several maids and attendants who were obviously from aristocratic families. In addition, there were a group of horseback guards. They were taciturn and capable, and their behavior revealed the iron-blooded temperament honed in the military.

With the extraordinary momentum shown by this team, it should have been very eye-catching. It was the same all the way here, and it had caused them a lot of trouble. But after entering the city, they unexpectedly found that there were not as many people paying attention to them in this small county as before.

It seemed that there was another more attractive thing that firmly attracted the attention of the people in the city. Wherever the convoy passed, the people along the way might have looked up at them curiously in the last second, and then lowered their heads and whispered to the people around them in the next second, with excitement in their eyes and eyebrows.

It was as if there was a tacit secret flowing in the dark. Their expressions, eyes, and movements when they whispered to each other were constantly sharing and spreading this secret.

Among the group, someone heard the key words "Weiguogong Mansion", "Crown Prince", "Wrong Child" and so on.

The young man in the lead frowned slightly.

Xu Mingyu knew very well that the purpose of coming to this small county from hundreds of miles away was to pick up his cousin who was stranded outside. Although he was also very surprised when he learned about this past from his father, this matter was of great importance, and he never casually revealed a word to the outside world.

Therefore, except for the closest followers, the others in the team actually didn't know what they were doing.

But if he heard it right, there was already a rumor in this small county? Could it be that the news had leaked out?

Xu Mingyu was full of confusion. He waved his hand to call a servant and ordered: "Go and see what's going on."

The attendant responded in a low voice, then retreated, and then silently blended into the whispering crowd.

Not long after, the attendant who was sent to inquire about the news came back, but the expression on his face was particularly strange.

Seeing this, Xu Mingyu became more and more puzzled: "What happened? Why are you whining?"

The attendant's expression became more and more strange: "To answer the eldest son, those people, those people are talking about the incident of the Duke of Wei's mansion holding the wrong prince sixteen years ago, and the kidnapping case of the real and fake princes."

Xu Mingyu: "?"

Before leaving, what about the secret truth that his family swore to him? How come everyone in this small place knows about it? And what the hell is the kidnapping case of the real and fake princes?

"Well, I heard from someone that it was the prince," When it came to Xu Mingjin, the attendant who knew the truth quickly changed his words, "It was Master Mingjin. He came here a day earlier and went to Shanglin Village to meet that person, and then he was taken to the county government by that person, and now he is locked up in jail as a kidnapper."

When saying this, the attendant named Yanshu felt that he had a lot of complaints to complain about, and Xu Mingyu, who heard him, was also dazed and had a lot of complaints to complain about.

——What is this all about!

Let's not talk about how Xu Mingjin, who was supposed to be studying in the academy, appeared here, just say how this guy was locked up as a kidnapper after only one day here?

We are all human beings, why are you so outstanding?

At this moment, Xu Mingyu almost suspected that he had heard it wrong.

After he carefully sent people to find out what happened in the court yesterday, Xu Mingyu was even more unbelievable.

Before his background was exposed, he had never realized that Xu Mingjin could be so unreliable. From childhood to adulthood, he had always had the impression that this cousin was humble and courteous, and had outstanding talents. Although they did not interact much, they had a good relationship.

But now, he felt that he had a new respect for Xu Mingjin.

He was actually arrested and thrown into jail as a kidnapper. In a sense, this former cousin was also quite extraordinary.

And the person who could send him in was obviously even more extraordinary.

For a time, Xu Mingyu was full of curiosity about his cousin whom he had not met for more than ten years.

Not everyone could be suddenly found and told that he was the son of a powerful person, not only without any temptation, but also escorted him to the government office as a kidnapper.

He was a little impatient to see this cousin.

As for Xu Mingjin who was locked up in jail?

Anyway, he had been locked up for a night, so it wouldn't matter if he was delayed for a while longer, right?

Thinking of this, Xu Mingyu, who originally planned to take a day off before picking up people, changed his plan and went directly to the local magistrate.

Unlike Xu Mingjin, who came secretly, Xu Mingyu represented the entire Duke's Mansion, and of course he also carried the Duke's Mansion's token. As soon as he showed his identity, he was welcomed in.

After walking through the long corridor, Xu Mingyu stopped.

His eyes were cast towards the pond beside the rockery not far away. A figure was right beside the pond, leaning forward, most of his body leaning down, his face almost touching the water surface.

His bright eyes met with the fish in the pond, and their eyes seemed to communicate some secrets that only they knew.

Until a fish raised its tail and splashed water on his face, he raised his head lazily. As if he noticed Xu Mingyu's gaze, the man turned his head and looked at him.

It was obviously a new dress prepared by the county magistrate's mansion, which was not completely commensurate with the boy's slightly rough skin, but between his eyebrows, there was a very special look, making all the inappropriate things become just right.

"Good morning."

The man squatting by the pond stood up and stretched, waving at him, each strand of hair was lively.

The lively water droplets trembled on the boy's lively eyelashes.

Xu Mingyu suddenly had an idea in his mind.

——It's him.

——The boy in front of him is the one he is looking for.

He couldn't help but walk forward and smiled.

"...Sanlang, right? I am your cousin, Xu Mingyu."
