Chapter 367 Seventh Brother
Author: Leng Qingshan
Shang Ruyi sat aside and looked into Yu Wenye's stern eyes quietly.
She knew deeply that this man did not believe in gods and Buddhas from the bottom of his heart, and now, with divine help, his brother suddenly accomplished such a great feat.
This inevitably makes people have some strange emotions.
"If there is divine help..."
After a long silence, Yu Wenye repeated these four words again, suddenly smiled and said: "Maybe."
Dabo couldn't say anything more about their brothers, so he could only say: "Second Young Master, before leaving, both the Duke and the Eldest Young Master urged their subordinates to set off immediately after seeing the Second Young Master. Therefore, we should leave immediately.
lets go."
Yu Wenye said: "Leave immediately?"
Dabo said: "Yes, if you stay outside for one more day, you will be in more danger."
"..."
Yu Wenye frowned slightly, while Shang Ruyi listened and became anxious.
Yu Wenye and Shen Wuzheng had planned for a long time before, and finally used tricks to make several heads of Wanggang Village kill each other and alienate their relationship. Now Shimi in Yanyue City is to accommodate those who left Wanggang Village.
, but now, the hole Yu Wenye mentioned has not been opened yet, and the people have not come yet, so they are being urged to leave.
If you just leave like this - wouldn't it mean that you have failed in your efforts?
So, she said; "But, we still have some things to do, so we have to stay for two more days."
Dabo glanced at her, then looked at Yu Wenye, and said: "When I came down, I also heard about the actions of the second young master in Wanggang Village. If we can really capture Wanggang Village in one fell swoop, it will indeed be a good thing for the future of the Duke."
It is beneficial to our great cause.”
"..."
"But - Second Young Master, Young Madam, what is more important than your safety?"
"..."
"According to my subordinates, now that the Duke has established King Zhao as emperor, many people are dissatisfied. Liang Shide and Xiao Yuansui are blocking your way halfway, just to stop the second young master and weaken the Duke's strength.
The Second Young Master and the Young Madam should return to Daxing City as soon as possible, as it will be safe there."
"..."
"If you stay outside all the time, if some unscrupulous people come here, wouldn't it be——"
Yu Wenye and Shang Ruyi looked at each other.
Dabo's worries are not unreasonable, but for them, leaving like this is equivalent to completely abandoning Wanggang Village, which they absolutely cannot accept.
Yu Wenye said: "I will stay here for one more day. If nothing is done tomorrow, I will leave."
Seeing that he was determined, Dabo had no choice but to say: "Yes."
At this moment, there was a familiar sound of thumping footsteps outside. The three of them turned their heads and saw that Good Tong'er ran in like a calf and said with a smile: "Sister Ruyi,
Second brother Yuwen—eh? You guys have a guest."
Dabo narrowed his eyes and glanced at Shantong'er, his expression solemn.
He was a soldier, so he obviously noticed that this child was different, but the good boy didn't notice much and only bowed to him with his polite hands clasped together. Shang Ruyi had already said: "Why are you doing this?"
coming?"
Shantong'er said: "After I had dinner, I saw some people queuing up outside, so I came over and asked, should we continue to use Shimi in the evening?"
Shang Ruyi said: "Of course."
She originally planned to go out to help after dinner, but Da Bo came. She wanted to hear more news about Daxing City, so she stayed here. At this time, Yu Wenye suddenly said: "How about you take Shan Tong with you?"
Go out and help me, I still have some things to ask Dabo."
"oh,"
Shang Ruyi glanced at him, thought about it, and said, "Okay."
So he stood up, nodded to Da Bo, and led the good boy out.
Da Bo was very cautious, and stood up and saluted Shang Ruyi, watching her back until she left. Then he turned to look at Yu Wenye and lowered his voice: "Second Young Master, that child just now——"
Yu Wenye said: "The ninth master of Wanggang Village."
"Ah?! Such an older child?"
"Despite his young age, I almost suffered a loss at his hands."
"this……"
Dabo sighed lightly and said, "It seems that Wanggang Village cannot be underestimated."
Yu Wenye said lightly: "So this time, no matter how dangerous it is, I will stay here and deal with the affairs of Wanggang Village. Otherwise, I will wait until Xiao Yuansui takes over Wanggang Village and becomes more powerful, and then follow
Liang Shide's joint efforts to guard the eastern capital will be the biggest obstacle to our future eastward advance."
Da Bo said softly: "That makes sense."
But after saying this, Yu Wenye's eyes flickered again, but his eyes seemed to soften a little. He looked up at Dabo and said, "I have one more thing to ask you."
"Second Young Master, please speak."

Shang Ruyi on the other side led the good boy all the way to the outside of the temple. At this time, the sun was about to set, and the surrounding light also dimmed. There were only a few people left in the long queue.
But these people are all skinny and have a lot of food. They are obviously from very poor family backgrounds, so they are still waiting to receive rice at this time.
Seeing them like this, Shang Ruyi couldn't help but feel a little sad.
At this time, Mu Xian also led his people to drive another car full of grain bags to the gate. The expectations in those people's eyes almost made them pounce on the car.
Seeing them crowding forward excitedly, Shantong immediately jumped over to stop them and said loudly: "Queue in line, don't be crowded, everyone is here!"
When the people heard this, they quickly lined up in an orderly manner.
At this time, Shang Ruyi also walked over, patted Tu Sheer's shoulder, who was sweating all over, and said softly: "Sit down and rest, I'll do it."
As soon as Tusheer saw her, he immediately said: "Miss, why did you come out again? Your health is not good, you should have a good rest. Just leave this to me."
Shang Ruyi smiled and said: "I'm not that weak."
After saying that, he grabbed the wooden shovel directly from her hand. Tusheer had no choice but to leave, so he could only stand aside and watch her open the grain bags, fill them with rice bags for the people in front of her, and collect them.
Everyone who came to Mi thanked her sincerely and left.
After a while, it got dark.
There were still many people queuing up, so Shang Ruyi asked Mu Xian to light a torch and stand it under the tree. Mu Xian stood beside her and said softly: "Today is already the second day. Although there are many people coming to receive rice,
But not a single person from Wanggang Village came."
Shang Ruyi asked while loading rice for people, "Is there really none?"
Mu Xian said: "My people went to look outside the city. Those people had been here, but they only lingered at the gate of the city, and no one came in to receive the rice."
Shang Ruyi thought for a while and said with a smile: "Maybe, they still can't trust us."
In fact, even from her own point of view, if she were from Wanggang Village and had just experienced the two leaders in the village fighting each other and the brothers fighting against each other, she would definitely have a frightened mentality. Even if others benefited her, she would still be suspicious.
Does the other party have another purpose?
Once the trust of people is broken, it is difficult to rebuild.
Or maybe, as Yu Wenye said, the people in Wanggangzhai need an opening.
Mu Xian smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid that even if all fifty carts of food are distributed, none of them will come. Then we have wasted these three days and so much food in vain."
Shang Ruyi smiled and said: "No matter what, the benefits the common people get will not be in vain."
Mu Xian blinked and looked at her.
Tusheer on the side also nodded and said: "Yes, I can hear people in the city praising our young lady and uncle all the way today, saying that they have the heart of a Bodhisattva, which money can't buy."
The good boy on the other side also nodded: "Yeah, yeah, yeah."
Seeing them like this, Shang Ruyi couldn't help but laugh.
They were joking and busy like this, but they didn't feel too tired. Unknowingly, the number of people in line became less and less, and by the looks of it, there were only a few left.
Shang Ruyi packed rice for these people one after another. When the last woman received the rice and turned around to leave with gratitude, there was finally no one left.
Tusheer let out a long sigh of relief: "Finally it's done!"
Shang Ruyi looked back at her and said with a smile: "Go back and wash yourself quickly and get some rest early."
Tusheer immediately looked at her: "Miss, aren't you going back yet?"
Shang Ruyi shook his head, but then turned his head and glanced ahead. There were no people queuing in front of him. Only the dark night and the torch beside him only illuminated the small area in front of him, and then said: "I want to
hold on."
"Still waiting?"
Tu Sheer said: "No one will come again."
Mu Xian, who was on the side, also said: "It's so late, the common people should have rest. Young Madam, you have been busy all day, so you'd better go back and rest early."
Just as they were trying to persuade Shang Ruyi, suddenly, there was a sound of heavy footsteps in the night.
Everyone subconsciously became quiet.
Everyone looked forward together and saw a tall black figure walking slowly from a distance in the dark night. The closer he got to them, the burly outline was slowly outlined by the firelight. He seemed to be a strong man.
And when he approached the door of the temple and came into everyone's sight, everyone subconsciously held their breath.
Shang Ruyi, who was standing at the front, felt his eyes go dark.
A feeling of overwhelming weight came over my face.
She raised her head and faced a tiger-like face through the firelight behind her.
In front of him was a sturdy man, wearing a dark blue cloth, with a body as tall as a mountain, and a beard that ran from his earlobes to his chin, almost covering most of his face, and he could only barely make out a pair of tiger eyes.
Bright and bright, when he lowered his head to look at Shang Ruyi, Shang Ruyi felt as if he was being stared down by a tiger!
She subconsciously held her breath.
Everyone around them also unconsciously became quiet, and even the wind seemed to have stopped at the entrance of the temple.
At this time, I heard the good boy whispering: "Qi, Qi brother?"
