Chapter 8 Xiao Zhen’s Ghost
The resignation of the four Jiang Ping men did not go smoothly.
Because this time, although Xiao Zhen was the only one who died, the fourth prince was also seriously injured, and Jiang Ping and the four others were at the scene at the time. Even if they could testify to each other that someone stopped them from coming forward when the incident occurred, they would not There will be people who believe it, not to mention they are not stupid. This matter can only be kept in their stomachs and must not be spoken out.
Although Prince Consort Xiao and Princess Jiayi have been married for many years, they have their own mansions. The Princess's mansion and Xiao's mansion are only separated by a wall, but they are two mansions.
Huang Changshi is the chief historian of the eldest princess's mansion, and the four Jiangping people are Xiao Zhen's bodyguards. Although Xiao Zhen has residences in both mansions, the salaries of the four Jiangping people are paid by the Xiao mansion. In other words, they can Only Xiao Consort and Xiao Zhen and his son were the ones who decided whether the four of them should stay or go. Even Xiao Yue had a say, but Huang Changshi had no control over them.
They came to see Huang Changshi just to go through the motions and tell Huang Changshi that they had made a mistake and were leaving Xiao Mansion.
However, Huang Changshi didn't want them to leave like this. Although Xiao Zhen did not die in the eldest princess's mansion, he died when eldest princess Jiayi was not in the capital. After all, Huang Changshi still failed to care for him. If At that time, he sent more guards to follow Xiao Zhen, maybe Xiao Zhen would not die.
As long as Princess Jiayi comes back, Huang Changshi will definitely take the initiative to accept the punishment. Maybe at this moment, the censor's note has been sent to Long's case.
Of course, Huang Changshi couldn't let Jiang Ping and the four leave easily. Although we couldn't enjoy the blessings together, we must bear the guilt together.
Huang Changshi immediately ordered the guards of the Princess's Mansion to capture the four of them and lock them up.
The eldest princess's mansion was in trouble.
Fortunately, the fire was put out in time, and only two houses were burned, with no casualties.
However, when Huang Changshi hurried over, he heard two pieces of news that made him furious.
Jiang Ping and the other four disappeared.
This fire turned out to be caused by the second young master Xiao Yue practicing drilling into a fire ring.
Huang Changshi asked Xiao Yue to come over and ask. Xiao Yue was naive: "Huang Changshi, you are well-informed. You must know a trickster who can get into the fire ring. Can you help me find a master?"
Huang Changshi was so angry that he almost vomited blood. You just hang out with a bunch of actors all day long, but now you actually want to learn how to get into a ring of fire? Why don't you go to heaven?
"Where are Jiang Ping and the others? Does the Second Young Master know?"
Xiao Yue didn't care: "They, I thought they were an eyesore, so I told them to get out."
Huang Changshi's head was dizzy, it was over, there was no one to take the blame.
"Excuse me, where did the Second Young Master tell them to go?"
Xiao Yue burst out laughing and bent down with laughter: "Huang Changshi, I heard that you were born as a Jinshi, why would you ask such a funny question? Rivers and lakes, they can go wherever they like, and I, too, There is no such thing as clairvoyance.”
At this point, Xiao Yue's wrists flew up, pretending to have an extra length of water sleeve on his hand, and rolled it up into a flower. Then, he raised his orchid finger, pointed at Huang Changshi and said angrily: "You heartless enemy - —Yeah yeah——"
Then, before Huang Changshi could react, Xiao Yue twisted his waist, took small steps, turned around and left, singing "锵锵锵锵锵"
Huang Changshi.
At this time, the four Jiang Pings had already left the city overnight with the title of the eldest princess's palace, and met up with Xiao Zhen fifty miles away from the capital.
"Where's Xiao Yue?" Xiao Zhen asked.
"The second young master said that he has his own hiding place. Please don't worry, the eldest young master." Jiang Ping said.
Xiao Zhen really doesn't have to worry, he knows that although Xiao Yue is young, he can definitely hide himself well.
Jiang Ping saw that the country boy who came to deliver a message to them was next to his young master. Jiang Ping was startled and asked, "Sir, is this little brother also coming with us?" He saw Jiang Ping looking at him. , Da Zhuang immediately puffed up his chest: "My name is Yao Tianxiao."
Xiao Zhen nodded: "Tian Xiao will stay with me from now on, and you will take care of each other."
The four of them greeted Da Zhuang one after another.
"Jiang Ping."
"Cai An."
"Li Xi."
"Xu Le."
Great joy, peace and joy. It turns out that the names of people in the city are so down-to-earth. He said with a smile: "Just call me Da Zhuang. Everyone calls me Da Zhuang."
Jiang Ping and others didn't understand why Xiao Zhen brought this country boy with him, but they didn't ask any more questions. The eldest son must have his reasons.
In his previous life, Da Zhuang ran away secretly. He wanted to see the outside world. At that time, Da Zhuang had a wonderful idea. He wanted to make a name for himself outside, so he took his grandpa to enjoy the happiness.

But this wish was not fulfilled after all, and Yao Shanbo was killed by a falling rock from the mountain in the third year after Da Zhuang left.
In this life, Xiao Zhen never expected that it would be Yao Shanbo who took the initiative to let Da Zhuang follow him.
Although Yao Shanbo didn't say why, Xiao Zhen guessed that it must have something to do with him being a descendant of the Xiao family. This mysterious doctor hidden in the mountains and forests may have some connection with the Xiao family. However, Yao Shanbo refused to say, and Xiao Zhen didn't either. Asked, he just secretly made up his mind to ask Da Zhuang to take Yao Shanbo out of Shiji Mountain when things were over.
At this time, Xiao Zhen's body has not fully recovered. According to Yao Shanbo, he cannot ride a horse at all now. However, he can't wait any longer, and there is not much time left for him.
In the evening, they changed horses at an inn and continued on their way. The shepherd responsible for feeding the horses inadvertently raised his head and happened to face Xiao Zhen's face, which was so pale that there was no trace of blood. The shepherd was startled. No wonder Everyone said evil things were going on on the road at night, and no one knew whether the guest who came in the middle of the night was a human or a ghost.
This one must be a ghost.
The horse herder was so frightened that he quickly turned away. It was not until the men changed their horses and left that he boldly turned around.
"Oops, I forgot to see if these people have any shadows."
The horseherd muttered in a low voice and refused to work the night shift the next day.
A few days later, someone found this big car shop, holding a portrait in his hand, and asked one by one if he had seen the person in the portrait. The horseherd only glanced at it, then trembled, and asked: " Have you met this person? ”
The shepherd asked boldly: "Is this man dead?"
The visitor narrowed his eyes: "How did you know he was dead?"
The stable boy's body was shaking more and more violently. He was indeed dead, as expected!
"Ghost, this is a ghost, this is a ghost!"
The visitor tried hard and soft, but the stable boy just insisted that he saw a ghost that was exactly the same as the one in the portrait. As for where the ghost was floating to, the stable boy pointed in a circle from east to west, north and south. In short, it was floating into the night. As for this ghost, it was floating into the night. Is there anyone else around the ghost? Of course there is, black and white, green face and fangs.
Others in the cart shop also confirmed that the stable boy did indeed say he had seen a ghost.
In the end, the stable boy was slapped and kicked several times.
This incident spread to the capital for some reason. Some people said that the ghost was Xiao Zhen. Xiao Zhen died at a young age. He was unwilling to wander around the official road at night, so that for a long time after that, he would spend the night There are fewer people on the road.
