Chapter 102 A giant rock falls from the sky
Not long after, the servants of the Princess Mansion brought out an old man.
Leng Lanzhi curled his lips and asked lightly: "Do you still remember this person?"
The old man's back is slightly curved, his head is full of white hair, his right leg is lame, and he is leaning on a cane.
Seeing the old man, Shen Yizhi looked a little confused.
Before Shen Yizhi could remember the man's identity, the man knelt down with a thud: "I've seen the consort, my name is Cheng San'er, and I used to be a long-time laborer in the village of Pingnan Hou Mansion!"
He looked up at Shen Yizhi, his eyes full of hatred: "The prince-in-law may not remember me, but the servant named Abei in your mansion and the steward of your mansion will definitely remember me."
Shen Yizhi's expression changed.
Zhuangzi!
Seeing his change of expression, Leng Lanzhi smiled with satisfaction: "Go on."
So Cheng Saner came and said it.
About seven years ago, they, the long-term workers, were working in the village. The steward suddenly led a young man in to select people, saying that he had good jobs to be assigned to them.
At that time, four long-term workers in Zhuangzi who had signed a twenty-year contract were selected to do the so-called "good job" - to work on the cliffs of a canyon not far from Zhuangzi.
Cheng Saner is one of them.
These long-term workers arranged a huge boulder - as long as the ground shakes too much or touches a certain mechanism, the boulder will easily roll down.
All traces of man-made artifacts were removed from the scene.
The long-term workers did not know the meaning of these arrangements, and the attendant named Abei did not tell them either.
But these long-term workers don’t care. They don’t care about their boss’s foresight. They only care about how much they can get paid for this “good job”.
After the work was completed, they went to a dense forest under Abei's arrangement, ready to eat some dry food to replenish their strength, rest for a while before returning to Zhuangzi.
Abei very considerately prepared delicious meat buns and roast chicken for them.
Cheng San'er has seven children in his family. He couldn't bear to eat those hot and fragrant steamed buns, and he couldn't bear to eat the oily, watery, burnt and fragrant roast chicken. He thought of taking it back to give the children a toothpaste, so he gave it to Abei. Things were packed up and he only ate the coarse grain cakes he brought.
While eating, he suddenly had a stomachache, so he went to solve the physical problem.
When he returned to the dining place, he found that his three companions were lying on the ground, and the boy named Abei was wiping the neck of one of his companions!
Cheng Saner was so frightened that he turned around and ran away without thinking.
Abei heard the noise and chased after him.
In the end, Cheng Saner fell off the cliff, but luckily he didn't die and only broke one leg.
After waking up, he didn't dare to go home and wandered outside for several years. It wasn't until he felt that the big shots back then had forgotten him that he dared to drag his broken body back.
However, he was told by his family that people from the Pingnan Hou Mansion had come to see him several times, and their explanation for his disappearance was that there were thieves in Zhuangzi, and he was kidnapped by the thieves. His whereabouts, life and death are unknown.
He also told his family and people in the village that once he was found, they must notify the Pingnan Hou Mansion as soon as possible, so that the Hou Mansion could give him rewards in time.
Fortunately, Cheng Saner was very defensive and returned home in the dark, otherwise the consequences would have been disastrous if he had been seen by people in the village.
However, he completely lost the opportunity to appear openly in front of others. From that day on, he only dared to hide in the mountains near the village, not daring to let the people in the village discover him.
Later, his sons secretly inquired about the situation of the other three long-term workers, and learned that the three were buried with honor and dignity in the name of "defending the master's family and dying heroically," and the family also received a large sum of money in compensation.
After Cheng Saner finished speaking, tears flowed down his face, and he looked at Shen Yizhi with eyes full of hatred: "I personally heard the attendant named Abei say, 'Don't blame me for being cruel, but blame you for knowing it. Knowing the secret will become a stumbling block on the young master's path!
The only young master Abei talks about is the heir apparent of Pingnan Houfu at that time, and you are the current consort!"
Everyone was in an uproar!
No one would have thought that the charming, talented and caring prince-in-law would turn out to be such a sanctimonious executioner.
However, some people expressed confusion: "But, what does this matter have to do with the princess? The prince-in-law is a scumbag, and there is no conflict with the princess destroying other people's feelings."
This sound was also very abrupt in the noisy crowd. Leng Lanzhi glanced in the direction of the sound, and quickly looked away. The clear and sweet sound was like the sound of a piano, and the crowd calmed down unconsciously, listening to She speaks.
"Seven years ago, I went out for an outing. When I passed a canyon, I saw an injured rabbit lying on the roadside. I felt soft-hearted, so I stopped the carriage and got out of the car to check the rabbit's health myself. situation.
At this moment, the huge boulder on the cliff rolled down."
She paused.
The crowd fell silent with her voice, and their hearts lifted.
Everyone seemed to have seen that scene - the graceful and kind-hearted girl wanted to save the injured rabbit on the roadside.
Unexpectedly, huge rocks fell from the sky, casting a huge haze on the girl's life.
Everyone was eager to hear the results.
The result is obvious - the girl is fine and is standing here right now.
Leng Lanzhi didn't give in. "At the critical moment, the prince consort of Pingnan Hou Mansion jumped out from the side path and rescued me from under the boulder."
The crowd of onlookers was in an uproar again.
It turns out that the consort is waiting here!
Who can withstand this well-designed heroic rescue of beauty?
At least, Leng Lanzhi couldn't bear it at that time.
She said slowly: "I already have a good impression of the Prince Consort. With the blessing of saving my life, this good impression is even more profound than words can express."
Shen Yizhi's eyes darkened: "First of all, I have never calculated anything against the princess!"
"Secondly, this matter has nothing to do with me repeatedly rejecting the princess, but the princess insisted on marrying me and asked the saints to grant me a marriage!"
Lenglan's eyes sneered: "Is it really irrelevant?"
Shen Yizhi was still about to argue, but Leng Lanzhi clapped his hands: "Come here, let the prince-in-law give up."
After saying this, the door of the princess mansion opened again, and two more servants led a person out.
Seeing that man, the crowd of onlookers looked at a loss, and couldn't help but put their heads together in twos and threes to discuss.
Shen Yizhi's expression completely changed.
Obviously, although he had no impression of Cheng San'er, he did have an impression of the person who came out behind him.
Lenglan's smile was light and faint.
It's a good impression.
He can't take everything cleanly and leave the stigma to others, can't he?——
