Chapter 133 Ye Peng and the Duke of the Guardian
"Master, someone is coming." A personal guard said to Shangguan Zhenhua.
Shangguan Zhenhua turned around and saw Ye Tang and others walking towards him.
"You little woman, you actually left me and went away, you..." Shangguan Zhenhua noticed Ye Peng and the others, and his voice suddenly paused.
Ye Peng and the other man finally saw his face clearly and recognized him.
"You are...that old beggar?" Ye Ping'an pointed at Shangguan Zhenhua in surprise. Although this man's appearance today was different from yesterday, he was very good at recognizing people and could recognize that he was the old beggar.
The guards' faces darkened, and one of them scolded, "How dare you humiliate my master?"
Shangguan Zhenhua coughed lightly: "Wei Huan."
The guard who was speaking immediately shut up.
The other guards all looked at Ye Ping'an coldly.
Ye Ping'an was frightened by their stares and hid behind Ye Peng, not noticing at all that there was something wrong with the look in Ye Peng's eyes when he looked at Shangguan Zhenhua, and his fists clenched unconsciously.
Shangguan Zhenhua said gently: "Don't be afraid, little brother. They are my followers and will not hurt you."
Then he said to Ye Peng: "I told you that I am not a beggar. I was separated from my servants and ended up in such a situation."
He pointed at the six guards and said, "They are all my servants. I am quite surprised to see you and your son here too."
He asked: "Who are you to Ye Tang?"
Ye Peng stood in front of Ye Tang and looked at Shangguan Zhenhua with a cold look in his eyes: "I am her biological father."
Ye Pingan poked his head out from behind him: "I am her biological brother."
Without Ye Tang's introduction, they guessed that this person was the Duke of Protectorate.
Ye Tang met Shangguan Zhenhua's gaze: "They are my family, they don't know that Mr. Guo...Mr. Shang is here..."
Shangguan Zhenhua stroked his beard and said, "I am a distant relative of yours. I am here as a guest and would like to stay with you for a few nights."
Ye Tang: “…” He is indeed a dishonest old man who came with a purpose.
"Master Shang, let's talk about this inside the house." Thinking that it would be inconvenient to talk with servants in the yard, Ye Tang invited them into the main room.
"Okay, let's talk inside." Shangguan Zhenhua smiled and walked into the house first.
The guards followed in.
Ye Tang and the other two walked at the back. Ye Peng glanced coldly at Shangguan Zhenhua's back and asked Ye Tang in a low voice, "What is the full name of the Duke of Protectorate?"
"Shangguan Zhenhua." As soon as Ye Tang said this, Ye Peng's pupils shrank and he clenched his fists tighter.
"Dad, what's wrong with you?" Ye Tang asked worriedly. She noticed that Ye Peng's face looked a little strange.
"Nothing, it's the first time Dad has seen such a powerful person, I'm a little nervous and scared." Ye Peng pretended to smile and touched Ye Tang's head: "Dad won't let him hurt you."
After he finished speaking, he walked into the house.
Ye Tang looked at his back thoughtfully.
After closing the door, Ye Tang and Ye Peng bowed to Shangguan Zhenhua: "Duke, do you really want to live in my house? My house is simple and I am afraid I will neglect you..."
Shangguan Zhenhua smiled and said, "Your house is not simple at all, it is built very, very well. This time when I go out, I just want to keep a low profile and don't want others to know my identity, so don't tell anyone."
The implication is that he wants to stay.
Ye Tang and the other two all looked unhappy.
If this giant Buddha stays here, will they still have freedom?
It's inconvenient to do anything.
Ye Peng took a deep breath, pulled Ye Tang behind him, and said to Shangguan Zhenhua, who was smiling: "You are the Duke of the State, and your status is noble. We are country folk, and we really can't entertain you. You should find another place to live. If that doesn't work, you can live in Tao's house. Lord Tao will definitely treat you well."
Shangguan Zhenhua's smiling face slowly darkened: "Are you trying to drive me away? You are so bold."
Ye Tang and Ye Ping'an were very surprised. They didn't expect that their father would have the courage to say such harsh words. The other party was the Duke of Protector of the Country, and he was not afraid of being slapped to death by others.
Ye Tang pulled Ye Peng's sleeve, trying to make him be more rational and not act on his impulse.
Ye Peng didn't know where his temper came from. He ignored Ye Tang's pulling, held his breath, and looked at Shangguan Zhenhua fearlessly: "I have heard of the name of the Duke of Protector of the Country. I know that you are a great hero. People say that you are a good man who loves the people like his own children..."
Shangguan Zhenhua interrupted him with a cold snort: "Don't flatter me. I have never been a good person. I have killed countless people, my hands are stained with blood, and I am a complete killer."
He stood up and glanced at Ye Tang and the other two with a sharp gaze: "Wherever I go, I am treated as a guest of honor. This is the first time I have been given the cold shoulder and driven away. I am a country bumpkin, but I am really brave."
Ye Tang wanted to say something, but was held back by Ye Peng. Ye Peng stood up. His figure was similar to Shangguan Zhenhua, and they were almost the same height.
Ye Peng looked into Shangguan Zhenhua's cold eyes and said, "Just because you are a duke, you can bully others by taking advantage of your power? There are so many places to stay in the county government, the government office, Tao's house, and inns, but you don't want to stay there. You insist on staying at my daughter's house and pretend to be a distant relative. Do you want to treat us like slaves?"
Such outrageous words completely angered the guards, and they drew their swords and pointed them at Ye Peng.
Ye Tang and Ye Ping'an were shocked and were about to draw their weapons, but Ye Peng held them back.
Ye Peng straightened his back and sneered at his guards: "It is said that the Protector of the Country does not kill ordinary innocent people. It seems that it is all false."
"You are simply..."
"Wei Huan, put away your swords." Shangguan Zhenhua said in a deep voice.
Wei Huan and the other six people gritted their teeth and finally put away their swords, but they looked at Ye Peng with murderous eyes.
Ye Peng didn't care at all.
"Do you know me? And do you have a grudge against me?" Shangguan Zhenhua looked at Ye Peng with a puzzled look: "When I saw you yesterday, I wanted to say that your face looks a lot like me when I was young."
Ye Tang and Ye Ping'an were surprised. After a closer look, they found that their father did have some similarities with Shangguan Zhenhua.
"The old woman who led me said that you are very strong, your son is also very strong, and your daughter is even stronger." When Shangguan Zhenhua said this, he felt a little hopeful: "I have a son who was kidnapped and died thirty years ago. If he were still alive, he would be thirty-seven years old. How old are you?"
Ye Peng said: "I am thirty-nine years old."
Ye Tang and Ye Pingan: "......"
Their father is obviously thirty-seven years old.
The two were shocked. What did the Duke of Protectorate mean? What did his son's death have to do with their father? Their father couldn't be the murderer.
