Chapter 199 The scapegoat

"Let that girl go!"

Accompanied by a loud shout, Yuan Mai, wearing a white robe, broke into the palace of "Qingxin Temple", holding a divine bow in one hand and a "Sky Sword in the Sky" in the other, glaring at several nuns who were about to forcibly orphan Zhen Mi.

"Who are you?"

The female host and several little nuns were frightened and their legs were trembling constantly. They couldn't stand and fell to the ground.

"Ami, it's me, I'm here to save you!"

Seeing Zhen Mi being pushed to the corner of the wall, her face was already a little haggard. Yuan Mai opened her arms to her with distress and called her gently.

"Young Master Buy, you're finally here!"

Seeing clearly that the person who broke in was the husband he had been thinking about day and night, Zhen Mi could no longer control her excitement, and two lines of tears burst out from her eyes and threw herself into Yuan Mai's arms regardless of everything.

"Ami, I'm here. From today on, I will never leave you again!" Yuan Mai reached out and gently stroked Zhen Mi's hair, and made a firm promise.

"Xianyong, it is not advisable to stay here for a long time. Yecheng is Yuan Shang's territory. If he gets the news, you may not be able to leave!" Zhen Yao took a step forward, patted Yuan Mai's shoulder lightly, and reminded softly.

Yuan Mai nodded and picked up Zhen Mi in the waist, "Go back to Jinyang with me. From now on, if I protect you, no one can bully you again!"

He walked out of the palace with great strides, walked down the steps, and placed Zhen Mi on the back of the horse "passing through the clouds and dark horses", letting her wait for herself for a while, and then turned around and entered the palace.

At this moment, Zhen Yao was holding a long sword and was leading a hundred soldiers to gather the nuns in the temple and a rough count. There were about twenty tall, short, fat and thin nuns, ranging from seventeen or eighteen to over forty years, all of them were extremely frightened. I wonder what fate would be waiting for?

"Xianyong, what should we do with these female nuns?" Zhen Yao walked to Yuan Mai in his hand and asked softly in his ear.

Yuan Mai's eyes were as cold as frost. He said in a deep voice: "Kill! No one living mouth is left. After the killing, a big fire turned the entire temple into ashes. Not only these female nuns, the monks in the temple above should be killed. Don't leave a living mouth is left!"

"This is too cruel, right?" Zhen Yao asked hesitantly.

Yuan Mai frowned and said coldly: "A small measure is not a gentleman. No poison is not a husband! We can be kind to the people who have no interests with us. People with conflicts of interest must not be ruthless. Besides, these people are not real monks. Instead, they use the guise of becoming a monk to deceive the world and steal reputation and defraud money, and they will die for more than one person."

"If this matter reached Yuan Gong's ears, would he be furious?" Zhen Yao asked with a worried look on his face.

Yuan Mai coughed and said, "The reason why I wanted to kill all of them is to eliminate the root cause. Even if he knows, what can I do to me without evidence? I will not admit it if I resist it!"

He paused and said, "Besides, if there were no accidents, it would take less than two years for my father to go there!"

"Uh... why did Xianyong say this?" Zhen Yao asked in surprise.

Yuan Mai reached out to stop his question: "Divine secrets should not be revealed, there is no need to ask too much. You will naturally know that you and Zhou Cang just follow my instructions. I will wait at the foot of the mountain and after the matter is done, go down the mountain to meet me!"

Yuan Mai left a word, turned around and left the palace, came to the yard and turned over to the horse, hugged Zhen Mi in his arms, rode together, took dozens of cavalrymen, and took the lead down the mountain.

As soon as the group arrived at the foot of the mountain, they saw a raging fire ignited in the temples and temples halfway up the mountain. The magnificent temple was immediately swallowed by endless fire.

After killing more than 20 nuns and more than 40 monks, Zhen Yao burned the temple and temple with a fire as Yuan Mai ordered. He also left some pre-prepared black bandit flags and weapons used by the black bandits not far away, and then went down the mountain.

After going down the mountain to meet Yuan Mai, Zhen Yao said with a hug: "It's over, and my family and I can't stay in Jizhou for too long. Let's part ways. I rushed to Wu'an County overnight to bring my mother, brothers and family to Jinyang to avoid disasters!"

Yuan Mai nodded: "Okay, let Zhou Cang lead twenty people to Wu'an County and move your family to Jinyang as soon as possible. I will take Ah Mi to Hanoi first. When the matter in Hanoi is handled, I will go north to Jinyang."

After the agreement was made, the two sides parted ways. Zhen Yao and Zhou Cang brought twenty elite soldiers and their original entourages to Wu'an County, a hundred miles east overnight, while Yuan Mai took Zhen Mi and led the remaining cavalry to the west, returning to Huai County, the capital of Hanoi County, starry night.

Not long after Yuan Mai's troops left, another elite 200 people came to the foot of the mountain. The team was sent by Yuan Shang to kill Zhen Mi.

"Huh... Why did the fire catch on the mountain?"

Before they reached the foot of the mountain, the two leaders of the commander-in-chief looked surprised and didn't understand what was going on.

He hurriedly urged the people and rushed to the front of the mountain, only to find that all the soldiers guarding the temple at the foot of the mountain had died. When he climbed halfway up the mountain, he saw that the non-nunciation had turned into ashes, and even the temple was burned in a blazing bonfire.

"What should I do? How can I explain to Mr. Shang when I go back?" The two leaders muttered about this matter whisperingly.

Another leader said: "When it came, Mr. Shang told us to kill Zhen Mi and all the men and women monks in the temple. Do not leave a living mouth and then burn it all in a fire. I don't know who was robbing us of the hand? After we go back, don't mention this matter, just say that we have acted as we told, slaughtered Zhen Mi and all the men and women monks, and burned all the temples in a fire. In this way, Mr. Shang will not blame us!"

"So good!" The first leader nodded and praised.

At that moment, the two leaders summoned all the soldiers to the front and gave some advice. Seeing the burning temple, the soldiers were still unsatisfied and took torches to ignite the entire Cuifeng Mountain. They saw the blazing flames soaring into the sky, burning the trees on the mountain. Then they returned to ask Yuan Shang for credit.

The next day, Yuan Shao received the report and was furious and sent Feng Ji to investigate the matter.

Feng Ji had already learned from Yuan Shang that the case was planned by him, so when he arrived at the foot of the mountain, he just walked through the motions and returned to Yecheng. He reported to Yuan Shao against his will that the Black Mountain bandits were done by the bandits of the Black Mountain. These thieves killed all the male monks and snatched the female nun. They were so arrogant!

"How dare Zhang Yan be so arrogant? He should send a large army to wipe out the Black Mountain!" Yuan Shao received Feng Ji's report and scolded him angrily.

Yuan Shang came out and advised: "My father stopped the wrath of thunder. Zhang Yan from Heishan was just a mob, and it was difficult to accomplish great things! Today, our army's biggest opponent is Cao Aman from Xuchang. He should first concentrate elite troops and go south to attack Cao thieves and destroy Cao thieves. The Heishan bandits naturally surrender without fighting!"

Yuan Shao suppressed his anger and stroked his beard and said, "Since that's the case, let Zhang Yan be crazy for a while. After I destroy Cao Cao, I will settle the score with Zhang Yan!"

When Yuan Mai and his party returned to Huai County, it was noon the next day. They sent people to reward all the soldiers with a large sum of money and ordered them to keep the secrets strictly. If there was any leak, the whole family would be killed. Then they took Zhen Mi back to their mansion.

Leading Zhen Mi to the backyard, Yuan Mai ordered the maid to summon Helan, Du and Cai Yan to visit his future wife.

I heard that the future wife is coming, Helan is holding the child, Du is erecting her big belly, and comes to the middle yard one after another. Let’s see what the wife who has been waiting for Yuan Mai has always looked like?

Cai Yan was summoned but refused to come out to meet him. Du and Helan were both concubines in a side-family house. It was natural to pay homage to the main house. At best, he was just a love affair, nameless, so why should he pay homage to Zhen?

"This is the husband's true wife Zhen!" Yuan Mai sat on the chair, pointed to Zhen Mi beside him, and introduced to Helan and Du, "From now on, you will all be called sisters!"

After hearing Yuan Mai's introduction, Helan and Du looked at Zhen Mi secretly, and saw a beautiful woman standing in front of her with snowy skin and ice skin, even if she was sinking fish and geese, she was so ashamed of the moon and shy flowers. The two of them were usually proud of their beauty. When they saw Zhen Mi's face, they realized that there was a sky beyond the sky and beauty beyond the sky. They were both ashamed of themselves and were jealous of Zhen Mi's beauty!

"See sister!"

In front of Yuan Mai, the two concubines did not dare to rebel. They bowed together and shouted "sister".

Zhen Mi hurriedly returned the greeting: "The two are older than A Mi. Although I met the young master earlier and he promised my wife, I think you should call my sister."

Yuan Mai smiled and agreed: "Okay, I have set rules for them to call their sisters, so that they don't have to compete for their size. It's rare that Ah Mi knows how to be modest, so you and them also call each other 'sister'!"

"Let me see the young master's child?" Seeing Yuan Xun in Helan's arms, Zhen Mi smiled and wanted to hug her.

Du said with a smile: "Why do you still call your son? You should call your husband!"

Zhen Mi said shyly: "I'm not married yet, I'm afraid it's inappropriate?"

Du asked again: "My husband has already taken four concubines in the side room. Why is your wife not getting married yet? I wonder when will you have to wait?"

Yuan Mai picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip, whispering: "My marriage with A Mi is not open for the time being. It is not too late to hold the wedding when the opportunity is right."

At this moment, the guards came to report that Lord Zhuge Jin had just returned from the south and was asking for a meeting outside the mansion.

"Oh... Ziyu is back, it's so good. I don't know if he brought Kong Ming back!"
