Chapter 298: Encountering injustice in Shunjing Prefecture!
On the evening of April 12, Shen Ruyi had a reunion dinner at home with her children, mother, grandmother, brothers and sisters.
After dinner, he greeted everyone as usual and went back to his own yard. After Shen Ruyi came back, he settled the children down and began to coax them to sleep. When they fell asleep, he went into the back compartment of the pickup truck.
When night fell, the domineering pickup truck carrying Shen Ruyi, her mother and her two children, as well as Shen Jiabao quietly exited the back door of the Duke of Fuguo's Mansion.
Because of advance arrangements tonight, the streets were under martial law early on. Wan Yaozu personally patrolled the streets and enforced martial law. All the soldiers and horses were mobilized to guard the streets strictly. They were notified in advance and ordinary people were not allowed to go out at night!
Qin Beiyu got into the back carriage, and Old Man Jin went into the other side of the carriage. The carriage had been renovated, the roof was higher, and a partition was added in the middle so that the men could come and sleep.
The beds where the men sleep are located on the lower level where Shen Jiabao sleeps. The upper level is a berth that is just big enough for two people.
On this side of the carriage were Shen Ruyi and her two children. They slept on a bunk bed with a lot of stuff on it. At the foot of the bed was a folding bed for Qin Beiyu to sleep.
After the two men were settled in the car, Zhaocai drove the vehicle unimpeded through the streets of the capital and went directly out of the south gate of the capital.
Wan Yaozu stood at the city gate, watching a huge military green vehicle with a faint glow roaring out, and his head felt buzzing at the time.
Qin Beiyu found him these two days and told him that he was going to travel tonight. Martial law must be imposed in the capital and no one must know about his trip. Wan Yaozu had a premonition that there was something special about the prince's trip, but he didn't expect it to be so shocking!
The domineering pickup truck was driving on the official road at lightning speed. Qin Beiyu and Shen Ruyi sat in the car and studied the map, planning their daily itinerary, where to stop, and where to rest and buy supplies!
The pickup truck drove away until the late night, and Zhaocai and Jinbao took turns driving until dawn, when their car drove into a forest.
When it was daylight, the car stopped deep in the woods. Shen Ruyi and Qin Beiyu woke up and got out of the car with the children. Zhaocai and Jinbao got out of the car to help. They took out the small stove and cooking utensils and started cooking.
The children were very well behaved today and just played with Shen Jiabao without causing any trouble. Shen Ruyi and Zhaocai Jinbao were busy cooking century egg and lean meat porridge together.
Half an hour later, the seven people sat at two tables and had a sumptuous breakfast. Shen Ruyi said that they must eat well, otherwise they would not be able to perform without energy and strength!
After dinner, Old Man Jin went to dig some herbs nearby, while Zhao Cai Jin Bao cleaned up the dishes, looked after the house and took a nap. Shen Ruyi and Qin Beiyu took the children and followed Shen Jiabao to play in the mountains.
So the family of five had nothing to do in the woods, so they just walked aimlessly. Qin Beiyu and Shen Ruyi both enjoyed the feeling of taking the kids out for a walk.
The sun gradually rose higher, and the forest was full of green and vitality. The family of five walked in the forest, as if they were walking in a fairyland!
The man couldn't help but feel excited, and he held his cousin's hand. Shen Ruyi also looked up at her cousin. She felt that it would be great if she and her cousin could just live like a couple and raise children...
Suddenly Shen Jiabao stopped. They all heard someone crying. The children widened their eyes and looked at their mother instinctively.
Shen Ruyi made a false gesture with her hands: "I'll go over to take a look, can you guys keep quiet?"
The two little kids opened their eyes wide, looked at their mother seriously, and nodded with their hands covering their little mouths. They were so adorable!
Shen Jiabao also understood, and he carried the children forward without making a sound. Qin Beiyu was amused by the curious look of the mother and her two children!
Finally, they saw two women kneeling in front of a grave on a hillside not far away. They were crying heart-wrenchingly, it was so miserable!
The two women cried really sadly, and I don’t know if the two children were too sympathetic, but they also covered their little mouths with tears in their eyes, and were fascinated by the scene.
Looking at the children's expressions, you can tell that they are children with a strong sense of justice. When they see someone crying so miserably and sadly, they feel sad too.
Shen Ruyi and Qin Beiyu looked at each other. The tacit understanding between them only required a glance.
Qin Beiyu nodded, and Shen Ruyi gestured with her hand, meaning that she should go and let the two babies follow their father.
The two kids actually covered their mouths and nodded, because they were so curious why the two aunts were crying so heartbreakingly?
Ren Ruyi walked forward a few steps, came close to the grave, coughed softly and said: "Ahem, I'm just passing by, why are you two crying so sadly?"
Two women...
The two women raised their tearful eyes at the same time and looked at the beautiful woman who appeared from behind the grave. The woman who appeared in this desolate mountain was so beautiful. It was obvious that she was not an ordinary person but a fox fairy, right?
The two women looked at each other quickly and wiped their tears. They turned around and knelt down in front of Shen Ruyi, and kowtowed vigorously: "Fairy, Fairy, I'm sorry! We disturbed your meditation... Wuuuu... I'm sorry, Fairy..."
Shen Ruyi...
"That fairy lady is the fairy lady. I want to know why the two of you are crying. Is it because a relative passed away in your family? Or are you wronged in some way? Why are you crying so miserably?"
A slightly older woman wiped away her tears suddenly and turned to look at the young woman next to her. She held the woman's hand and turned to look at Shen Ruyi.
"Fairy, the person buried in this tomb is my head Wang Shun, who was beaten to death by someone!
Because someone took a fancy to my younger sister. My younger sister had been without a mother since she was a child, and had been dependent on me since she was seven years old. Later, I married the head of the family, and my younger sister naturally followed me.
My sister is getting prettier and prettier. A month ago, she was spotted by an official at the market!
He insisted on forcing my sister to marry him, but my boss disagreed. As soon as they disagreed, he beat my boss to death!
He even told our family that on the 20th of this month, he would bring my sister into the mansion as a concubine... wuwuwu...
It is said that his wife is a tigress, the illegitimate daughter of a high-ranking official in the capital. She is very powerful and has already beaten three concubines to death... Woo woo woo... If my sister is carried into the mansion, there will be no way for her to survive..."
The corner of Shen Ruyi's mouth twitched: "A high-ranking official in Shunjing Prefecture? What kind of official is he? He has such great power, but he also forced someone to marry his daughter as a concubine and beat someone to death?"
The woman cried out in grief and grievance: "They have captured my son now. If my sister doesn't marry him, my son will probably die... wuwuwu..."
Shen Ruyi was surprised: "How old is your son? Who took him away?"
The young girl cried until her voice was hoarse. She said helplessly: "Fairy, my nephew is five years old this year. They are under the command of the commander of the city defense army in Shunjing City. They have captured the child three days ago. We reported to the authorities, and the county magistrate said that our family had offended Commander Zhuang and asked us to solve it ourselves... wuwuwu...
I have to save my nephew even if I die. My brother-in-law is dead, I can’t let my nephew die too… wuwuwu…”
Shen Ruyi was furious. She was so angry that she couldn't bear it any longer: "Can you tell me the name of that official and what he does?"
"It's the commander of Shunjing Prefecture's city defense army, Zhuang Qingshan. He's over 40 years old and was promoted after the new prefect took office!"
Looking at the young girl, who was probably only sixteen or seventeen years old, she was actually going to marry an old man in his forties. It was really unacceptable to her family, so the male owner of the family was beaten to death.
"Okay! I'll take care of this matter!"
