Reborn as the first poisonous concubine

Chapter 957
In the autumn of the third year of Yongyuan.

It was just dawn, and the cold wind howled all night, blowing the leaves all over the ground.

The autumn wind was rustling, and passers-by on the road tightened their skirts one after another, either on their way, or preparing for the early morning market.

The inns in Leling County also opened their doors one after another, preparing breakfast for early risers.

Among them, the largest White Horse Inn in Leling County was already overcrowded early in the morning, and the hall was already full of tourists from all walks of life, discussing while having breakfast.

"Have you seen the notice from yesterday?"

"Is it the news that Jiang's family was ransacked and beheaded?"

"That's right... According to me, that minister, Jiang Xian, was obviously a loyal minister and devoted himself to serving the people, but he ended up being executed because he offended the emperor. It really makes people feel uneasy!"

"That's right, Mr. Jiang is a good official, but it's a pity that he met that emperor..."

"Hmph, such a foolish king, who kills loyal ministers, I believe he will be kicked out soon!" One of them became more and more angry as he spoke, and the passenger, who was also feeling sorry for the minister, quickly covered the mouths of his fellow travelers, Whispered to persuade: "Oh, don't talk about it, if it reaches the emperor's ears, we will be finished!"

The discussion gradually subsided, and the man in linen plain clothes sitting not far from the pedestrians frowned, and couldn't help but squeeze the bun in his hand tightly.

He didn't know how long he had to endure before he forcibly endured the anger and resentment in his heart.

Shang Shupu shot Jiang Xian, the good official who was praised by the people was his father!

He went out to study abroad, but he didn't expect that his family would suffer misfortune. His father got angry with the faint king and was imprisoned. Their Jiang family was ransacked and beheaded, but there was nothing he could do!

"Grandpa, your tea is here..." The shop waiter just brought him hot tea and poured it, but he could no longer sit still like this, stood up and put the silver on the table, his voice was low and hoarse: "Xiao Two, checkout!"

The waiter in the shop responded, took the money, and said with a smile, "It's easy to go, the guest officer", but was frightened by the icy aura exuding from his body, and shivered suddenly, seeing his sloppy beard in coarse clothes and linen, Shaking his head again, he muttered "weird" to himself.

The street market has become lively, and the peddlers started to sell their goods, but the officers and soldiers suddenly arrived, breaking the bustle of the street market: "Get out of the way, get out of the way—"

The common people avoided one after another, only to see officers and soldiers sticking notices on the wall one after another, pointing to the portrait on the wall and saying to the common people: "This is a notice issued by the imperial court. Jiang Cheng, the son of the criminal minister Jiang Xian, fled. Anyone who sees it will report it to the official office, and there will be a lot of rewards. If you don’t report it, you will be sent to prison and used as hard labor. If you dare to hide it, you will be punished!"

The official took a look around at the surrounding people, raised his head and snorted, and waved his hand: "Hurry up, step up the guards outside the city, and search every household for me!"

The people were so frightened that they quickly put away their stalls and hurried home. The streets were in a mess, and the inn was also turned upside down because of the search by officers and soldiers.

Jiang Cheng looked at the notice on the wall, his eyes flickered coldly, he carried his burden tightly, and quickly hid in the dilapidated temple.

This search lasted for three days.

Seeing that no figure of Jiang Cheng could be found, the government relaxed its vigilance for the time being.

Jiang Cheng has been dormant in the temple for the past few days, went out every day to explore the checkpoints of the city gate, secretly planning how to get out of the city smoothly and avenge his father!
