After my mother read my mind, my whole family rebelled
Chapter 95: Alarming the Snake
"I obey my orders!"
Zhang Yu cupped his hands and answered loudly.
The next second, everyone saw Zhang Yu flipping his palms together. They couldn't even see how Zhang Yu made the move. They just blinked and saw that Captain Yu had his hands tied behind his back.
Some brave people in the crowd actually started clapping.
"Hey, are you all dead? Ouch, it hurts... it hurts! Ouch... Ouch!" Captain Yu howled, his eyes sweeping over the group of city gate guards. "Let me go!"
But the guards all knelt down and said, "Greetings to His Royal Highness Prince Ning!"
Xia Yu stood proudly in the middle, while Dao Yan behind him held high the token of King Ning.
[Emma, Daddy has become taller and more handsome for some reason! ]
[I am starting to like Daddy a little bit. 】
Shen Yuyao raised her hand and pressed her brows, but there was a smile on the corner of her mouth.
This time, Xia Yu has really alerted the enemy.
"I bow to His Royal Highness Prince Ning!"
"Your Highness Prince Ning!"
Hu la la la... When the common people at the city gate saw the officers and soldiers kneeling down, they all knelt down as well.
"Everyone, get up! Anyone without a tooth card should go to the city gate to register and follow me into the city!"
The people all cheered and responded, rushing to the guards at the city gate to register.
"No wonder so many families have gone to Yanjing now."
"It is said that Yanjing is well governed, the people are prosperous, and there is never a curfew."
"I heard that Prince Ning treated the people in the vassal state very well, and Yanjing did not impose heavy taxes."
"Hush...be careful not to be heard by King Lu's spies..."
"Do you know? The reason why the King of Lu wants to impose a curfew every day is because those families in Qingzhou City who lost their children went to the capital to file a complaint with the emperor."
"Prince Lu said that as long as the child was not lost in Qingzhou City, it has nothing to do with him."
"So now there are always children being abandoned outside the city, and everyone is rushing to send their children into the city every day to avoid danger."
"Shh... stop talking..."
"If the people of King Lu heard it, would you still be alive?"
"Prince Ning is still the best."
"Yes, Hello, King Ning!"
Shen Yuyao heard all the discussions in the crowd.
[No wonder everyone likes to be a high-ranking official. It’s really too good.]
[Just doing a small good deed can win so much praise from the people! ]
Shen Yuyao smiled slightly. Even gods would like to hear nice words, let alone the prince?
Xia Yu turned around and helped the old man up, "Old man, do you have a place to stay tonight?"
The incident started because of the old man. Xia Yu was worried about Captain Yu, so he went to cause trouble for the old man while he was away.
The old man bowed and said, "Ahem... ahem... Your Majesty, I just want to find a stable anywhere in the city, ahem... ahem... stay with my grandson for one night, and then set off for Xijing tomorrow. Ahem... ahem..."
The old man kept coughing and seemed seriously ill.
The boy next to the old man patted him on the back gently, then looked up at Xia Yu with eyes full of gratitude and admiration.
Xia Yu asked: "Oh? Xijing?"
"That's right, cough... cough... I have a distant relative in Xijing, cough... cough... I would like to take my grandson to seek refuge with him while I can still walk. cough... cough..." the old man said slowly.
"In that case, old man, you can go to the inn with me tonight. Rest for a day and continue your journey tomorrow."
Xia Yu was still worried that the old man would be retaliated against because of what happened today.
"Old man, after dinner tonight, I have something I want to ask you."
"Then I would rather obey than be disrespectful! Ahem... ahem... thank you, Your Majesty, for rescuing my grandson. Ahem... ahem..."
The old man's eyes were full of gratitude, but he was also worried that if Captain Yu wanted revenge, he would not be able to protect his grandson.
Now that Prince Ning has invited me, it would be disrespectful to refuse.
"Sanbao, come here, cough... cough..." The old man waved to his grandson, "Come and kowtow to Prince Ning, thank you for saving me. Cough... cough..."
The boy named Sanbao walked to Xia Yu obediently and kowtowed three times to him, "Sanbao thanks the prince for rescuing me!"
Xia Yu comforted him softly, "No need to be polite, baby. Take good care of your grandfather and come with us."
The boy answered yes and followed Xia Yu closely.
Xia Yu looked at Captain Yu who was still in Zhang Yu's hand, pointed at him and said loudly: "As for you, hurry to Prince Lu's mansion and tell Lao Jiu that I will wait for him at the posthouse about what happened today!"
Zhang Yufang then let Captain Yu go and said coldly, "Get out! Why don't you get out now?"
Captain Yu had a gloomy look on his face. He stood up angrily and walked quickly towards his horse without even bowing to Xia Yu.
Maybe because he stood up in a hurry, his legs felt weak, his body swayed, and he almost fell to the ground again.
He staggered a few steps, steadied himself, and finally walked to the side of the horse. When he stepped on the step to mount the horse, he slipped again. It took him several attempts before he was able to sit on the horse.
It was so embarrassing.
Those people who had not left yet all laughed out loud.
Xia Yu is the emperor's legitimate son. Although Prince Lu is favored by the emperor, he is still a bastard's son after all.
Xia Yu originally wanted to make a secret visit, and in his anger, he naturally walked into the scene.
Shen Yuyao took Xia Xiaoxian by the hand and walked to the old man and said, "Old man, follow me to the carriage and go to the posthouse."
Shen Yuyao was dressed in men's clothes, and the old man didn't know that she was a princess. He just thought she was an attendant of the palace. He thanked her and followed Shen Yuyao to the carriage.
"Little brother, how old are you?" Xia Xiaoxian walked to the boy and pulled his sleeve.
The boy looked at a chubby little baby whose voice was exactly the same as the cute voice in the crowd just now. The boy immediately fell in love with the little baby.
The little baby is so cute and brave.
"Little sister, I am six years old, how about you?"
"I'm almost two. What's your name?"
"My last name is Ma, and my name is Sanbao." The boy answered softly.
"Ma Sanbao?"
Xia Xiaoxian began to flip through the book, "The Book of Three Lives", again.
After searching for a long time, I couldn't find anyone named Ma Sanbao. I guess he is just an ordinary person.
"Brother Sanbao, where are your parents?" Xia Xiaoxian asked, tilting her head.
Xia Xiaoxian is a famous immortal in the heaven who loves gossip and melons.
"My parents are both gone. My father died on the battlefield, and my mother died of complications during childbirth."
Ma Sanbao's eyes were somewhat dim, "I still don't know what my parents look like."
Shen Yuyao was listening to the conversation between the two waiters and inexplicably felt sorry for Ma Sanbao.
She almost died during childbirth of Xia Xiaoxian.
Several people got on the carriage, and the old man and Ma Sanbao were shocked by its luxury.
The old man huddled together, thanked repeatedly, and sat reluctantly in the corner of the car.
Xia Xiaoxian, however, pulled Ma Sanbao, lifted the car curtain, and started introducing them.
