Chapter 41: Escape from the Troubled Times 39

Xu Chengye and Xiao Cheng used to be neighbors and very good friends.

However, their village was always plagued by bandits. Finally, the bandits came down the mountain to rob, and Xiao Cheng and his mother were captured in the bandits' lair on the mountain. Xu Chengye's family was destroyed and he fled the village. Later, he was picked up by a nobleman and adopted as his son.

The two friends' identities became completely different from then on. They both swore to get rid of evil for the people, but one became a local official and the other became a bandit leader.

Needless to say, Xu Chengye became the adopted son of a wealthy family, and was later recommended to become a county magistrate. Within two years, he climbed to the position of prefect.

Xiao Cheng's success in becoming the boss at a young age was inseparable from his mother's help. At the beginning, his mother was favored by the boss and became the wife of the bandit's nest.

Xiao Cheng was also adopted as an adopted son by the boss. In the end, he endured humiliation and killed the boss at the age of 19, successfully replacing him and becoming the new leader of the bandit nest.

After the success, the first thing he did was to get Zhou Hean.

At that time, he thought that the exile team had time requirements, so it didn't matter if a few people died. If he could snatch a few women, the officers and soldiers would not come to chase him, so it would be just right to sell them.

Then he snatched a wife.

In fact, Zhou Hean was just pretending to cooperate. How could she become a military prostitute for entertainment in her prime years?

Zhou He'an hated Na, hated the heaven, hated the earth, and hated the royal family even more. She was determined to take revenge.

Seeing that there were a large number of people in the bandit camp, they were definitely potential military talents. She observed the leader Xiao Cheng and luckily, he still had a conscience. Then she seduced Xiao Cheng and became the wife of the bandit leader, and persuaded Xiao Cheng to station troops for rebellion.

Xiao Cheng was not a fool, but Zhou Hean had a strong personality and knew a lot, so he agreed on a whim.

It is the time of youth and ambition, and it is natural that a man of honor will stick to his word.

Afterwards, he led the gang to develop in a sneaky way.

Later he learned that Zhou Hean was General Zhou's legitimate daughter. He had admired General Zhou since childhood and did not want to be a bandit all his life. He was more happy to eat the pie in the sky painted by Zhou Hean.

Upon learning that a branch of the Zhou family was exiled to Lingzhou and that the prefect of the county where they were located was actually his childhood brother, he immediately wrote a letter to contact Xu Chengye.

The two men recognized each other. Xu Chengye was also one of General Zhou's admirers and was happy to take care of the Zhou family. The Zhou family lived quite well after arriving in Lingzhou.

Zhou Hean had an idea, so he went to Lingzhou with Xiao Cheng for a secret talk. Then he used his remaining connections to get Xu Chengye appointed as the governor of Lingzhou. The Zhou family lived a better life from then on.

In order to make the entire cooperation more solid, Zhou He'an chose to marry the Zhou family and Xu Chengye, and then after the old emperor's death, he married Zhou Zhaozhao to Xu Chengye in a legitimate way.

Xu Chengye was quite disappointed with the entire court, which was full of idleness, corruption and abuse of power.

Seeing that the world was about to fall into chaos, he cleverly guessed what Xiao Cheng and Zhou He'an were going to do. The Xiao and Zhou couple did have ideas, actions and strength.

Knowing that he had no talent for leadership and was more suited to being a local official and serving the people, he acquiesced to joining Xiao Cheng's team.

This was also the direct reason why he did not object when Zhou He'an married Zhou Zhaozhao to him. Moreover, Zhou Zhaozhao was extremely beautiful. After marriage, the two of them were even sweeter and lived in love.

Wang Zhaozhao knew that the male and female protagonists were the ultimate winners, and she often whispered in his ear, making Xu Chengye follow Xiao Cheng even more wholeheartedly and work diligently.

After following Wang Zhaozhao for a year, Lin Xia had a very fulfilling life. Not only could she get the progress of the male and female protagonists at any time, but she could also often hear all kinds of gossip.

Because Wang Zhaozhao always asked her subordinates to go out to gather information, others just thought that she was working for Zhou Hean to investigate the character of those people. In fact, only Lin Xia knew that she was carrying out a mission.

She always asks people to collect information about other people's private homes, their actual family situations, whether they have committed corruption or bribery, their character, etc.

During the war, a good candidate for reincarnation was found.

The result was that Wang Zhaozhao became pregnant again after five years.

This was information that Lin Xia had found out.

The world was about to be settled, and there was still one wise king to be dealt with. Wang Zhaozhao felt at ease looking for a new family to be reborn into.

Then he found out about a prefect in a remote area of ​​the previous dynasty. Although this person's family background was ordinary, he had a good relationship with the inner family. This person was also very talented. Xiao Cheng discovered that he was a talent, and after some investigation, he promoted him to the governor of Jiangnan region.

Seeing that this person was about to take off, Wang Zhaozhao asked Lin Xia to investigate his family situation. It happened that he found out that his wife was pregnant and was not yet three months pregnant. Wang Zhaozhao immediately designated the reincarnated soul as his wife.

This man took office two months later and came to Jiangnan with his wife.

However, accidents happen. Unexpectedly, the flood season in the south of the Yangtze River was extremely severe this year. The embankment was washed away as soon as the new governor arrived outside the city. His wife was frightened and had bleeding. The governor survived, but the child did not, so Wang Zhaozhao had to give birth on her own.

Lin Xia: ...

When doing a task, there are gains and losses, and failure is normal.

Fortunately, she doesn't have a system, and she lives a good life. She just wants to be a truly free bird.

Wang Zhaozhao accepted it well. She and her husband were in a good relationship and already had a son, so having another daughter would be just the right thing. Then she took a pill to give birth to a daughter.

Lin Xia suddenly received an urgent letter from Kyoto.

"Miss, I'm from Kyoto." Lin Xia handed the letter to Wang Zhaozhao expressionlessly.

"What! My sister was arrested!" Wang Zhaozhao was shocked.

Lin Xia's pupils constricted and she was also shocked. They were now on their way to Kyoto and only had half a day's journey left to arrive.

Kyoto was captured yesterday, indicating that Xiao Cheng has conquered the world. At this juncture, why was the heroine captured? Doesn’t this delay things?

"Lin Xia, take your men to Kyoto immediately and find a way to rescue my sister!"

......

Lin Xia just wanted to complain. Is my life not a life?

It's really not.

"I want you to save my sister at all costs!" Wang Zhaozhao stared at Lin Xia.

Power is dazzling, and Wang Zhaozhao gradually becomes like the superiors in ancient times who hold the power of life and death.

What could she say? There were no human rights in ancient times, so she could only nod in agreement.

Afterwards, Lin Xia led a small group of people and rushed to Kyoto. The person who met them in Kyoto was their old acquaintance Wu Geli.

Wu Geli quickly told Lin Xia the current situation.

It turned out that although the capital was destroyed yesterday, the wise king escaped.

The entire Zhou family was executed at the instigation of the wise king, because he wanted to rebel, but it was impossible as long as the Zhou family was there. In addition, the old emperor was afraid of the Zhou family and was old, so he wanted to eliminate the threat for the new emperor. With the push from many sides, the Zhou family collapsed.

Zhou He'an was unwilling to give in. The culprit escaped, so she led the troops to chase him personally, leaving Xiao Cheng in Kyoto to clean up the mess. Unexpectedly, she was caught and became a threat to Xiao Cheng.

The virtuous king is currently hiding in a small city in the north. Xiao Cheng's army is approaching, and the two sides are in negotiations.

Lin Xia's team and Wu Geli's team quietly approached the city wall.

Not every place was guarded by soldiers, and the virtuous king brought few people with him. His attention was attracted by Xiao Cheng in front of him. She and a few skilled people climbed up the city wall with grappling hooks, and the rest of the people stayed outside to provide support.

The people in the city were in a panic, their doors were closed, and soldiers were patrolling the roads continuously.

Lin Xia and his companions arrived at the county government office safely. The office was heavily guarded and they had to observe for an hour before they found a chance.

In the end, only she and Wu Geli entered the yamen, and the remaining four knocked out the owner of a nearby courtyard and kept on watching and ready to provide support.
