MTL - You Are Not In Exile, You Are Clearly Traveling!-Chapter 28 A strange combination of circumstances
Chapter 28 A strange combination of circumstances
"Snapped!"
Yi Cheng slapped He Yisu on the face, knocking him unconscious.
“Who asked you to make your own decision? Why don’t you apologize to Mr. Chen!”
The postmaster's face was gloomy, and he was lying peacefully in the posthouse. Who knew a big pot fell from the sky?
A man with General Guo behind him, who was suspected to have a background as a minister, came to look for him.
That's not all. Immediately afterwards, the imperial censor, the minister of rites, and several other adults came to the door.
He was confused. When did he offend so many adults?
He is just a little Yi Cheng, he doesn't even have any rank. Any adult behind them can easily crush him to death.
Later I found out that it was one of my subordinates who was responsible for the trouble.
He didn't know Mr. Chen, but he knew that he couldn't afford to offend Mr. Chen. Knowing that his servant had done something wrong, he quickly came to apologize to him.
He Yizu was confused. He couldn't understand why the adults beat him for an exiled official. He was his brother-in-law.
After being slapped for the third time, He Yizu realized that he had hit an iron plate. He had to apologize to Mr. Chen, and then asked the Chen family's servants to go back.
Master Yi Cheng also hurriedly invited the Chen family to dinner as an apology, and even asked the Yamen to help remove the shackles of the Chen family and let them have a good rest.
“Master Chen, please forgive me for my ignorance. If you need anything, just give me your orders!”
Yi Cheng originally wanted to apologize and settle the matter, but thinking of so many adults coming forward, he thought of trying to curry favor with Master Chen.
If Mr. Chen comes back one day and even remembers his good deeds, then he will make a lot of money.
Chen Xue and others did not expect to encounter such a good thing, so they naturally asked Yi Cheng to help find a carriage.
One carriage is not enough. When sleeping at night, Mr. Chen can only sleep outside the carriage. With two carriages, that is not a problem.
The carriage should not be a big problem for Yi Cheng.
And they didn’t want it for free, but paid for it, hoping to buy it through Yi Cheng’s channels.
It’s a pity that their luck is still a bit bad.
There is no carriage in the inn, but there are old carriages, but there are no horses.
But it’s also good news for the Chen family.
Although there is only one carriage and no horses, they already have a carriage, and they only need to connect the carriage with the original carriage.
It is still a bit difficult for one horse to pull two carriages, but there is no other way but to make do with it first.
Since he wanted to do a favor, an old carriage was definitely not enough, so Yi Cheng asked people to send a lot of materials to fill the old carriage.
Chen Xue and others wanted to refuse, but Yi Cheng forced them to come over, so they had no choice but to accept. They just didn't understand why Yi Cheng valued them so much.
They didn’t know that both Zhao Guang and Xu Tian came to Yi Cheng to reveal the power behind them.
Xu Tian approached Yi Cheng because he was told by the imperial censor and others to take good care of the Chen family.
As for Zhao Guang, he had to please the Chen family because he had a handle and was poisoned.
Yi Cheng was frightened by the forces behind Xu Tian and Zhao Guang, so he chose to befriend the Chen family.
So, after staying at the inn, Chen Xue and others slept comfortably all night, and got a carriage. Not only that, they also got a carriage of supplies.
Zhang Yiquan originally wanted to trick the Chen family, but unexpectedly he ended up helping them instead.
This may be what is called the interdependence of blessings and misfortunes.
“Hey, why did Mr. Zhang go in standing up and come out sideways?”
In the morning, when Chen Xue and his family left the inn, they saw Zhang Yiquan being supported by his family members to leave, and they were suddenly curious.
Zhang Yiquan felt angry when he saw the Chen family, but he didn't have the energy to refute. He went to the river to catch fish the day before yesterday, but he didn't eat any fish and was a little cold.
It rained yesterday and I was walking on the road, so I got even colder.
Last night, there was a cold wind blowing outside all night. Not only that, He Yizu also vented his anger on him, beating him and causing him to bleed profusely.
Zhang Yiquan was already angry, but when he heard that Yi Cheng had specially bought them a carriage and sent a lot of supplies in order to please the Chen family, he was so angry that he vomited blood.
He worked hard and spent hundreds of taels, but not only did he not get a house, he also received a beating.
The Chen family did nothing, didn't spend a penny, and got a carriage and a carriage of supplies. How could he not be angry?
Just like that, Zhang Yiquan, who was already cold, became angry and caught a cold.
“I...Ah bang!”
Zhang Yiquan wanted to say something, but he sneezed and his nose ran down. The people around him saw this and quickly distanced themselves from him.
The Chen family even got into the carriage with the support of Yi Cheng. Before leaving, Yi Cheng smiled and said that he would be a guest if he had the opportunity.
This scene made Zhang Yiquan's lungs explode.
Why!
The Chen family are also prisoners!
Why are you being polite to them?
Shaking with anger and coldness!
…
“How are things going?”
Zhao Guang looked at the person in front of him and suddenly broke into a cold sweat, thinking about whether to kill someone and silence them.
He naturally knew what the person in front of him was talking about, wasn't it the matter that Guo Qiang asked him to kill Chen Yuan.
It's just that he has been trying to please Chen Yuan now, how can he possibly kill him, kill Chen Yuan, what to do with the poison on his body?
So, he could only bite the bullet and said, "I haven't found a chance to make a move. That Xu Tian has been helping the Chen family..."
“Trash!” the man cursed, “do it as soon as possible.”
Then, the man left the inn. Fortunately, his master had already expected that Zhao Guang was useless and might not succeed, so he asked him to make a new plan.
He came here just to confirm whether Zhao Guang succeeded. If it succeeded, that would be fine. If not, then he would have to use a new plan.
He opened the scroll in his hand, and it was Chen Yuan who was painted on it.
His mission is simple, find the bandits, give them money, let them find opportunities to attack the exiled team, and then take the opportunity to kill Chen Yuan.
In order to worry that the bandits would not be able to recognize him, Guo Qiang specially found a portrait of Chen Yuan.
He came here also to confirm whether the portrait was consistent with Chen Yuan's.
Seeing the Chen family get on the carriage, the man turned around and left to ambush on the road ahead.
…
The group continued on their way.
Since the Chen family had two carriages, they let the servants sit in the rear carriage, firstly to keep an eye on the supplies, and secondly so that the servants could rest.
Although most of the supplies have been collected by Chen Xue, the boxes are still in the carriage.
The servants of the Chen family did not expect that there would be a carriage on the way to exile, and they were very grateful to the Chen family.
When the prisoners around him saw this scene, they were filled with envy and jealousy. Why did the Chen family even have servants riding in the carriage?
But when they saw Zhao Guang and other government officials, they could only hide their dissatisfaction in their hearts.
“Bang!”
Suddenly, the carriage shook, and Chen Xue heard the voice of the servant.
“Sir, Miss, someone is stopping the car!”
Chen Xue and others were stunned. There were actually people in the exile team blocking the car. They must be impatient!
