After being replaced, she changed from a miserable daughter-in-law to a lucky wife

Xiao Chiye thought for a moment and asked, "Who is the official in charge in Qingcheng now?"

The beggar thought he would ask something difficult, but he relaxed when he heard this: "Zhang Laixi is not a good person. He indulges his son and robs other people's good women everywhere..."

He spilled out all the information he knew like pouring out the beans, without giving anyone a chance to interrupt.

Xiao Chiye's expression couldn't help but become serious: "When did he take office?"

"If only Lord Qingfeng were still alive three years ago, I wouldn't have to stay in the alley waiting to die." The beggar said this with a sad look on his face.

"He was transferred?" Xiao Chiye asked calmly.

The beggar shook his head: "I heard that he offended someone, was dismissed from his official position, and returned to his hometown."

Xiao Chiye clenched his fists slightly. He came here just to find Qingfeng. Although they had only met a few times, they both regarded each other as close friends.

What happened in the capital city three years ago?

Xiao Chiye gave the bun in his hand to the beggar and asked him about some other things.

The beggar ate his buns in big mouthfuls and told him some things about Qingcheng.

In these words, Xiao Chiye also heard something that made him think: Ke Zheng was actually transferred to Qingcheng to serve as a small officer.

You have to know that he also has military merits, and this officer is only a sixth-rank official.

He needed to meet Ke Zheng to find out what had happened, so he gave the little beggar a penny and found out where Ke Zheng lived.

Ke Zheng came down from the city wall and instructed the soldiers behind him: "Don't be careless when patrolling." After that, he left first.

He walked towards Qingcheng's residence and found a man wearing a bamboo hat, leaning against the wall beside the alley with his arms folded across his chest.

This man seemed to be the man he saw on the city wall. He sensed a dangerous aura and his body instinctively became alert.

He continued to walk slowly in the direction where he was, but one hand was already on the sword at his waist, ready to take action to eliminate danger at any time.

Xiao Chiye kept his head down, as if he didn't see him, and even his breathing didn't change, as if he was not waiting for the person in front of him.

Ke Zheng passed by him and glanced at him. Seeing that he didn't move, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiao Chiye saw him walking a few steps with his back to him, and suddenly attacked him.

Ke Zheng was shocked and dodged his attack, then drew his sword and chopped at his arm.

Xiao Chiye quickly retreated, kicked his feet, and retreated from the attacking direction of his sword. He reached for his belt and pulled out the soft sword from it. With a flick of his wrist, the soft sword became straight and rushed towards Ke Zheng.

After the panic just now, Ke Zheng calmed down instead. Facing the long sword that was coming straight at him, he raised his knife to block it and slashed at him with his backhand.

After several fights, he found that the opponent's moves were very familiar: "Who are you?"

Xiao Chiye did not answer him, but raised his sword and attacked him again.

The broadsword is not friendly to narrow alleys as its attack range is limited and it is not as agile as the long sword.

Ke Zheng was defeated in the end and fell to the ground. A long sword was placed on his neck: "Kill me if you want. I won't work for you."

Xiao Chiye raised the brim of his hat, revealing his scarred face: "Brother Ke, long time no see."

When Ke Zheng saw him, his eyes almost popped out and he stuttered: "You, you are not...how could it be."

Xiao Chiye stretched out his hand and pulled him: "This is not the place to talk, let's talk somewhere else."

Ke Zheng's heart was filled with turmoil. He reached out and held his hand, stood up, and picked up the sword on the ground: "Follow me."

Xiao Chiye pulled the brim of his hat down again, making it impossible to see his face clearly.

Ke Zheng took him to a small courtyard where he lived alone.

He waited until Xiao Chiye entered the yard, stretched his head to look outside the alley to see that no one was following him, then he closed the gate and looked at Xiao Chiye: "Aren't you dead?"
