I really became a prince

In the big village.

The villagers who had dinner gathered on the street in groups of three or four as usual, chatting and chatting, and it was very lively.

"Look, Liu Er is back." One of the villagers muttered and said.

"Do you think he brought back red lotus seeds?"

"How is it possible? The red lotus seeds only produce a dozen or so, so how could they be given away so easily, let alone Liu Er."

"..."

Seeing Liu Guangqiu's figure appearing at the head of the village, the village names gathered on the street couldn't help talking in low voices.

Because of Liu Guangqiu's bum-like style before, they all used to call him "Liu Er".Of course, a few years ago, when Liu Guangqiu’s family had a lot of wealth, this name was called behind his back, but now, the name Liu Er has replaced the three characters of Liu Guangqiu. After all, the dilapidated and dilapidated family will not make them have any awe. heart of.

"Liu Er is back?" Someone greeted with a smile.

After Liu Guangqiu came out of the farm, holding two lotus seeds tightly in his hands, he walked like a dragon and a tiger. He was in a good mood, and he didn't take this name to others.

If it was normal, they would have laughed and scolded if they could not.

"Well, I'm back!" Liu Guangqiu replied angrily.

"Hey, you seem to be in a good mood, didn't you bring back the red lotus seeds?" A voice joked.

Liu Guangqiu smiled even more triumphantly. He didn't speak, but just raised his head and showed the two lotus seeds in his hand to the surrounding villagers.

Although it was already evening and the night began to fall, everyone still saw two red things shining in his hands.

Now everyone was stunned, this Liu Er actually brought back red lotus seeds, and there were still two.

You must know that red lotus seeds are not only mellow and delicious, but also have great benefits for the body, which are by no means accessible to ordinary people like them.

Even those rich merchants who make them feel aloof, it is difficult to get one, because every year when the red lotus seeds come out, they are bought by the meritorious dignitaries of Dali Imperial Capital.

Only this year was an accident. I heard that the farm had just changed its owner. For some unknown reason, none of the meritorious dignitaries who came to buy and sell by force in previous years did not come.

Before, when Liu Guangqiu went to the farm to ask for a few red lotus seeds, all the villagers laughed, how could it be possible.Even though Liu Guangqiu usually advertises everywhere how good his relationship with the new steward of Nong Farm is, everyone knows that he is bragging.

Could it be that he was blowing out his bewilderment now?Just when you are a guest at the farm?

And they have all heard that the cavalry suddenly came forward to the farm today. They heard that it was brought by the owner of the farm, obviously a powerful nobleman.

There were also some well-meaning villagers who advised Liu Guangqiu not to go, but before he finished speaking, Liu Guangqiu had already walked away with his hands behind his back.

"Well, this Liu Er is quite pitiful. In our village, he used to have a rich family property that was second to none, but in order to find Liu Yi who ran away from home, Nuo Da's family property was all wiped out.

"Yeah, but even though I still like to brag, I'm no longer the bum I used to be."

"That's right, after all, I started to take care of my family, and I started to show compassion for my mother-in-law..."

It seemed that thinking of Liu Guangqiu's situation under the watchful eye of thousands of soldiers, everyone couldn't help but shuddered. They thought they didn't have the guts to do so.

All the villagers gathered at the head of the village did not notice that a figure was entering the village without a trace, following Liu Guangqiu far behind.

This figure seems to be walking slowly step by step, but there is no trace of each step, as if it is completely integrated with the surrounding environment, and ordinary people can't find it at all.

This figure is exactly Jiang Yi, but at this time, it has a different face. It looks ordinary, even if it is placed in the crowd, it is difficult to attract the attention of others.

What Jiang Yi used was not a disguise technique, but a disguise mask.

This mask was given by Jiang Zhongbao to Xiao Yizi, the original owner of this body. The other party would usually use this mask to disguise himself as Xiao Yizi, and when necessary, he would restore his original appearance and act as Jiang Zhongbao's stand-in.

However, Jiang Yi's appearance at this time is not Xiao Yizi's appearance, which is also a new discovery of Jiang Yi.

This disguise mask didn't seem extraordinary, he had always thought it was just an ordinary mask that could only be disguised as Xiao Yizi.

So he didn't use it all the time. After all, he planned to keep Xiao Yizi's identity for great use in the future.

But after relying on the Yinshan Secret Realm Token to deduce "Refining Treasure Jue", he tried to refine the mask, and he really succeeded.

In addition to the appearance of "Xiao Yizi", there is another appearance.

Unremarkable, like an invisible person in a crowd, Jiang Yi is very satisfied with this appearance.

In other words, since then, Jiang Yi can have three identities, one is Jiang Yi, the king of Yi County, the other is Xiao Yizi who has disappeared from everyone's sight, and the last one is the current one.

Jiang Yi didn't continue to follow Liu Guangqiu, who didn't stop to brag to the villagers to show off, but directly passed him, and entered a small courtyard according to the memory left by the original owner.

This small courtyard is very simple, and can even be described as dilapidated. There are only five simple main rooms, and there are no formal side rooms, because this small courtyard was only used as a firewood courtyard before.

Next door to this small courtyard is a large house.

Although it is only two entrances and two exits, it is definitely second to none in this big village, or even in the surrounding villages.

And this mansion was Liu Guangqiu's previous residence.

But later, because of looking for his son and dissipating the family wealth, the house was also sold.

Jiang Yi quietly entered the courtyard. Beside the well in the small courtyard was a young woman dressed plainly. She was the married elder sister of the original owner. She must have come here specially to serve the confinement child.

Beside them are girls, one big and one small, seven or eight years old and eleven or twelve years old, wearing patched clothes, with a disheveled look on their faces.

The older one was dozing off little by little, while the seven or eight-year-old one was looking out the door intently, looking forward to it.

"Sister, when Dad brings back red lotus seeds and stews the soup, will you not let us drink it?" The little girl swallowed, with a worried expression on her face.

Hearing this, the young woman who was washing clothes smiled and raised her head to glance at the younger sister, and said angrily: "Then you can cry and make trouble, it seems that father is not very hard-hearted."

"En!" The little girl nodded seriously.

The young woman smiled wryly and shook her head, how could she really bring back the red lotus seeds, but she is already very satisfied that her father has such a heart, at least he knows how to care about this family.

Compared with the life of rich clothes and fine food in the past, she prefers this home now, after all, she has a father who can be seen and touched.

Jiang Yi sneaked into the bedroom without making a sound.

I saw a pale woman sleeping soundly on the bed, next to her was a newborn baby in her arms, probably due to malnutrition during pregnancy, only in her early forties, and looked very thin.

And at the head of the bed, there was a portrait hanging there, the eyebrows looked very much like Jiang Yi now.

"Xiaoyi..."

The sleeping woman babbled in her sleep, a line of tears rolled down from the corner of her eyes, and wet the pillow.

Seeing this, Jiang Yi sighed, and suddenly knelt on the ground and respectfully kowtowed three times to the woman.
