The big donkey turned around and walked over, but met a masked man in white who was in the way, so the donkey's hoof stepped directly over his body.

"hiss!"

Ye Shengxin looked at the place where the donkey's hoof fell and took a breath for the masked man whose life or death was unknown.

Then I thought: [Fortunately this guy is old. If he were young, he would have to wear a green hat to continue the family line.]

Everyone:...

-

When Rong Ping brought his men over, the huge palace was completely silent. He thought it was all Hao Duanzhuang's credit, so he did not doubt it too much. He just ordered the soldiers behind him to go to various courtyards to rescue people.

After he reunited with Ye Shengxin and others, Xu Changyu didn't dare to mention what had just happened in front of so many people.

But Ye Shengxin's contribution was reported.

Thinking of the reward on the notice, Ye Shengxin immediately stopped caring about the reasons why these secret guards were suddenly killed.

He was so happy that his mouth was grinning and he wished he could make money right there.

This thrilling and dangerous chaos tonight was safely overcome.

Before Ye Xingxin rode away on her donkey, Rong Ping stopped her and promised:

"I will send the news of what happened here to the capital as quickly as possible, and the reward will come soon. If you are not in a hurry, you can stay in Jianghe City for a few more days."

Ye Shengxin naturally didn't mind and agreed with a smile.

The next morning Emperor Jingming learned that Ye Shengxin and the other two had done such a thrilling event without telling him, and that it was Zhang Liang who guided the whole thing.

He glanced at Zhang Liang coldly.

Zhang Liang, who was staring straight ahead, hadn't slept well for several nights.

I have been trying to guess what His Majesty's eyes mean.

Are you blaming him? Or something else?

Fortunately, the reward of one thousand taels of gold came down quickly, and Ye Shengxin had more money in his pocket. Several people were going to fulfill what they had promised to Hao Duanzhuang.

However, before leaving, Ye Shengxin asked Rong Anle, who came to see them off, something.

——How is Huang Youwei?

Rong Anle: "He died last night. He died of a high fever caused by a recurring leg injury and being locked up in prison without medical treatment."

Ye Xingxin made two "tsk tsk" sounds at this, and everyone said goodbye to the female generals.

Emperor Jingming was still thinking about paying back the money to Cui Fu, and Cui Luoshan also learned that his second brother had escaped from the palace to join the army.

Now that he has money, he also needs to go back to the village to settle his parents. Ye Shengxin and Zhang Liang don’t care about the destination.

The four of them agreed and headed towards Qingshan Village.

It took the four of them several days to get here, and half a month to get back.

The ministers watched helplessly as His Majesty picked up a hoe and started digging a grave for Hao Duanzhuang. Their hearts went from being twisted with pain at first to gradually accepting it.

The ministers felt that since His Majesty was so outrageous, it would not be surprising for him to do something unorthodox again.

There is no need to make a fuss. They are all ministers who have seen the world.

After Emperor Jingming returned to Qingshan Village, in addition to paying off the silver he owed to Cui Fu, he also gave him an extra twenty taels as compensation for being forced to skip work.

After settling the bill, Emperor Jingming thought that the matter would come to an end. However, he did not expect that Cui Fu did not want any extra money and just insisted on asking him to make up for the delayed work.

Emperor Jingming had no choice but to admit that he was in the wrong, so he had to change into old clothes, pick up the shoulder pole again, carry the dung bucket and start watering the fields.

Emperor Jingming had to do thirty days of labor by himself. Ye Shengxin couldn't stand this job, and since he didn't know Emperor Jingming's identity, he naturally wouldn't take the initiative to share the work. So the job fell on Zhang Liang and Cui Luoshan.

The two men looked at each other, picked up the dung bucket next to them and started working without saying a word.

Emperor Jingming started to carry manure, and the prince glanced at his ministers.

Some ministers tightened their lips and immediately stood up to say that the land outside the city still needed to be watered. After the court session today, they asked His Highness to allow them to pick up the shoulder poles again and set an example for the people and students all over the world.

The prince agreed with a smile.

Ministers:...

The ministers wiped their tears secretly, feeling deeply that their lives were miserable.

The money from the tomb robbery was divided equally among the four of them. Cui Luoshan was not short of money at the moment, so he bought a big house and a hundred acres of fertile land for his parents in the town. Then, he followed Emperor Jingming, who had completely ended his debt-paying career, to the capital.

On the way, while chatting, Cui Luoshan asked Ye Xingxin: "The Huang family has fallen. Do we still need to assassinate the emperor when we go to the capital?"

Ye Xingxin bit into the meat pie and said leisurely: "Of course not, it's not like we have a long life."

"This time we went to the capital, mainly to see which minister was restless. We will go to his ancestral tomb to patronize him, so that he won't live too comfortably and lose track of direction."

"Don't you think so, little duck?"

Emperor Jingming nodded: "That's the truth."

He also emphasized: "We are not notorious tomb robbers, we are tomb robbers who punish evildoers for the people and the court!"

Zhang Liang:......

Zhang Liang had a speechless face. Your Majesty, are you happy?

Ministers:...

The ministers all looked miserable, fearing that they would be the next victim.

But there was no way to stop it. He could only return home after court and regulate the words and actions of his relatives and servants to prevent being targeted.

Ye Xingxin and his party arrived in the capital ten days later.

On the day of entering the city, Zhang Liang mentioned Ye Xingxin and Emperor Jingming's identities as fugitives before they lost their memory, and advised just in case:

"It's better to change your appearance. The capital is heavily guarded, and it's not that easy to escape."

The two of them agreed with this and went to Hao Duanzhuang to make some modifications to their faces.

Emperor Jingming's phoenix eyes were changed into single eyelids, his tall nose became soft and collapsed, his mouth became thicker, and his face became longer.

As ordinary as possible among the crowd.

Ye Shengxin is no less impressive.

But in the eyes of all the civil and military officials in the court, there was no difference between whether these two people had changed or not.

God knows, even if His Majesty turns into a dog, they will still be respectful to the dog and ask with a smile:

"Dog, have you eaten today? Are you happy? If not, I'll give you a bite. Be happy."

The ministers have taken sufficient precautions against His Majesty and Ye Shengxin, who have "hid their identities", to ensure that they would not be caught.

But sometimes, Ye Shengxin always becomes the accident.
