The flowering period works

Chapter 491: Missed Someone's Fate!

    

ver three to five years, everyone will have had a chance to go."The village head let out a sigh of relief, and the villagers also found it reasonable. Thus, the matter was settled.He also talked about...The Emperor is a wise ruler. Even though he was almost harmed, he didn't blame his subjects. Instead, he rewarded them and encouraged them to speak their minds.

The Li, Liu, and Cui families are known for their loyalty and righteousness. In a desperate situation where everyone thought they were doomed, they tirelessly ran around, never abandoning each other, earning countless praises.

Even that rebellious son, even though he married into another family, causing people to gossip, most people still praised him for his loyalty and righteousness. They believed that since he survived such a hardship, he was destined for good fortune in the future.

Only the Wen family, whenever people mentioned them, would show disdain.

What "seeing death and inaction", what "even a tiger doesn't eat its offspring", all thrown on their heads, even a fool should understand what is going on!

Conspiracy and trickery, this is a conspiracy and trickery against the Wen family!

The father and son had just found the Cui family's farm, but that rebellious son wasn't there at all.

They can only run to the Shattered Gold Beach again.

Today, they must ruin this engagement, or else the Wen family's reputation will be utterly ruined and they will gain nothing!

As long as I can coax my wayward son back home, back into my hands, I'll always find a way to make him obediently serve our family.

If it can't be helped, let him marry the junior sister of the Cui family.

In the future, perhaps, the Cui family, the Liu family, and the Li family could all be at their Wen family's disposal!

The father and son's abacus beads clicked with a whirring sound, incredibly precise.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned, and they were happy too soon.

Just as the carriage passed over the stone bridge, seven or eight soldiers suddenly sprang out from the roadside and stopped it.

The carriage driver was startled and quickly reined in his horse, shouting, “Who are you Why did you stop the carriage”

A soldier asked, "Whose carriage is this What's the matter in Xīn Cūn"

Chang Sui dared not answer. Thankfully, the small window opened. Wen Junyan frowned and glanced at the soldiers, saying, "We are the Wen family from Xin Du. We came today to visit Lord Li."

"The Wen family" The soldier's face lit up when he heard this, and he quickly yelled to his comrades behind him, "Hurry up and work! We finally got someone here!"

The rest of the soldiers also laughed and stepped forward together.

Two pulled on the reins, lowering the long pole.

Two people opened the car doors and dragged Old Master Wen and Wen Junyan directly out, pulling them toward the bridge's underside.

Elder Wen and Wen Junyan's faces turned pale with fright, more so with anger.

Old Master Wen roared, "What are you doing In broad daylight, you dare to hijack an imperial official Is there any law left!"

Wen Junyan was a timid fellow, but he chimed in, "What do you want Are you after money Let's talk this through!"

Unfortunately, the soldiers simply ignored them.

Not only did he drag the two of them to the river under the bridge, but he also drove the carriage down and hid it in the bridge hole.

At this time of year, the melted snow water has long since stopped flowing into the river, and there hasn't been much rain lately. As a result, almost half of the riverbank is dry.

This is easy peasy, hiding a carriage right now.

Upon seeing this, Old Master Wen and Wen Junyan were utterly terrified.

This definitely isn't about robbery or kidnapping, so it must be a matter of life and death!

As expected, several soldiers pulled their hair and simply pushed their heads into the water.

The icy river water, unlike the biting cold of winter, wasn't unpleasant! But it certainly wasn't warm either.

And pouring it forcefully into the nose and mouth is even more terrifying.

Their hands and feet clawed at the air in terror, but this only made them choke worse.

Just when they thought they were going to die, they were pulled out.

Both of them coughed desperately, feeling for the first time how sweet the air was and how blissful it was to breathe.

A soldier smiled and asked, "Well then, what brings you to the new village"

Why

The old man, Wen, was taken aback for a moment and instinctively replied, "Here to find my wayward son..."

Before he could finish, his head was pushed back into the river.

The soldier chuckled, looking at Wen Junyan who was terrified, "Mr. Wen, such a good man, how could he possibly be an unfilial son"

"That's right. Mr. Wen is a good man. Last time he came back, he drank and laughed with us. He never looked down on us common folk!"

Wen Junyan's eyes widened in realization, finally understanding why they had been brought to this catastrophe.

He wanted to speak more, but the soldiers pushed him into the water as well.

The two father and son “competed with each other,” washing their faces and heads clean in the river, and having a good drink before being tossed onto the bank by the soldiers.

This time, the soldiers asked questions again, and the father and son were much more obedient.

Old Master Wen coughed, as if he was about to die, and didn't dare to delay his reply. “Cough, cough, I came to see my second son. He is getting married today to become a上門女婿 (son-in-law who lives with the wife's family) in the Cui family. I am not happy, cough, cough, I want to stop him and prevent the marriage.”

Wen Junyan, afraid that his father would finish speaking and he hadn't explained everything before being sent to "drink water," quickly chimed in, "Yes, we came to stop my younger brother from getting married. His marrying into another family is too shameful for us! We mean no ill will and didn't intend to harm anyone!"

Several soldiers had been waiting for just those words. Immediately, one soldier jumped up and shouted, "Brothers, the Marquis guessed right! These two fellows are here to cause trouble! I'll go back and report, maybe I can still make it in time for the feast. Wait for me, I'll bring you some delicious food!"

Having said that, he turned and ran, causing the remaining soldiers to shout in anger.

The leading soldier threw a stone into the river and scoffed, "This kid is really slick, he actually got here first!"

“I just hope he has a bit of conscience and doesn’t keep all the good stuff for himself, not even giving us a bone!” A soldier greedily swallowed, complaining. “It's all these two wastrels' fault! If it wasn't for them holding us back, we'd be in the courtyard already, drinking and eating our fill!”

"Just, pour them some more water! They have so many important things to do, but they insist on coming to stir up Mr. Wen's wedding feast!"

"Yes, yes, in order to follow the Marquis back, I almost squeezed my head off. I was just waiting for a good meal and to join in the fun, but they ruined it!"

"Pay for our drumsticks, pay for our braised pork!"

Several soldiers, getting angrier and angrier, pushed Old Master Wen and Wen Junyan into the river again and again.

The leading soldier lay sprawled on the riverbank, chewing grass and propping his legs up with a nonchalant air. He’d occasionally mutter, "Almost done, be careful or you'll really drown then it’ll be harder to clean things up."

After an unknown amount of time, the old master Wen and his son were finally thrown onto the shore. The two of them had swollen bellies like toads.

Both of them regretted it to their guts!

What are they doing coming here to cause trouble Shouldn't they just stay home!

They figured out the Li family, the Liu family, and the Cui family, but they forgot there was still a new Marquis of Xiting!

Slaying barbarians like weeds, how could one show mercy when facing them...
