Being rejected by a scholar? She is so rich, what is she afraid of?

Chapter 261 Please let go

Yun Xi didn't expect to meet Wang Daya in the capital.

Oh, no, it’s Wang Yuyan.

With her were Zhao Junyi and several other young men who looked like scholars.

Compared to two years ago, Wang Yuyan seemed to have grown up, she was taller and her skin was whiter. She wore a long dress and a head full of red hairpins, looking like a lady from a noble family.

Zhao Junyi's attire was also several levels higher than before. He wore a long green satin gown, which made him look very handsome.

When the two of them stood together, there was a sense of a talented man and a beautiful woman.

Zhao Junyi and Wang Yuyan didn't expect to meet Yun Xi in the capital. Shouldn't they be in the south?

At this moment, the two of them had the same expression of surprise. They had seen Yun Xi wearing a nice dress, and she was beautiful and charming.

But today Yun Xi is not only beautiful, but also gives people a dignified and noble feeling.

Even if she was dressed in a low-key manner and didn't have too many accessories, anyone could tell that she was different from other people on the street. She was low-key yet luxurious, and it was obvious that she was not an ordinary person.

If Wang Yuyan is a lady from an ordinary family, then Yun Xi is the most beautiful daughter in the capital.

Facing such a stunning Yun Xi, Zhao Junyi blurted out, "Yun Xi, are you doing well?"

Yun Xi frowned slightly, wondering if this man's tone was a little too familiar.

Thinking of how the entire village was destroyed because of them, he said coldly, "Not bad, at least we feel at ease. I just don't know how Mr. Zhao and Miss Wang are doing, can they live in peace?"

"Yunxi, what do you mean?" Wang Yuyan asked.

"Don't you understand what I mean? Back then, the whole village was burned, killed, looted and massacred by the so-called bandits. Wasn't it you two who asked the bandits to go?"

When these words were spoken, the people around them widened their eyes in shock. Leading bandits to massacre the village was too horrible and vicious.

In an instant, the way the people around them looked at the two of them changed, and several of their companions who were close to them subconsciously took two steps back.

Wang Yuyan was furious. "Stop slandering me. It was obviously you who led the bandits to the village."

It was Yun Xi who offended Grandpa Xue, and the other party went to the village to hire a killer to kill someone, so it was she who led them there.

Yun Xi sneered, "Oh, you are confessing yourself. I remember that when the bandits entered the village, you fled with the Xue family. Logically, you should not know that the bandits massacred the village."

Wang Yuyan was stunned, and Zhao Junyi hurried to smooth things over.

"Yun Xi, you misunderstood. We didn't flee with Master Xue at the beginning. We went to seek refuge with relatives because of the locust plague. On the way, we met Master Xue who had relocated his family. Master Xue took care of me when I passed the imperial examination, so we traveled together.

As for the bandits, we really didn't know anything about them. We only heard later that you had offended Master Xue, so Master Xue bribed the bandits to avenge you before he left. Who knew that your whole family had escaped, and the bandits took advantage of the other villagers to vent their anger."

With just a few words, Zhao Junyi threw the dirty water on Yun Xi.

"Oh, I didn't realize you were so good at confusing right and wrong. If it wasn't for the fact that the Southern King personally led people to deal with the bandits and interrogated them to find out the whole story, I might have believed your story."

When they heard the name King Nan, Zhao Junyi and Wang Yuyan were surprised and felt guilty.

At first, they heard that the group of people who went to the village were completely wiped out because the government officials arrived in time, but they didn't expect that it was the King of Nan who went to destroy them personally.

At that time, they were still fantasizing that Yun Xi and the Yun family would be killed by the bandits before the government officials arrived, but they didn't expect that they were lucky enough to escape.

Yun Xi continued, "In fact, they were not bandits at all, but soldiers of the King of Jin. At that time, there were serious locust plagues and droughts everywhere, so the King of Jin's men disguised themselves as bandits and burned, killed and robbed everywhere.

It was you who told the King of Jin's people that there was food in our village, especially in our home, so they went to the village. And after that, you also defected to the King of Jin.

Now that the King of Jin is a traitor, why are you two fine and have come to the capital? Are you planning something else?"

The big hat was put on them, and Zhao Junyi and Wang Yuyan were so scared that they shook. Then cold sweats broke out.

They did follow Master Xue to join the King of Jin. Not only that, they also abandoned Master Xue after joining the King of Jin.

Mr. Xue used to be the richest man in Xiemu County. A lean camel is bigger than a horse, and he still has some money, especially two rare oriental pearls.

They said they would present the treasure to the King of Jin. But Master Xue was cautious and said that the treasure was not on him but at the Yue family in Jiangling. The treasure would be taken out after the King of Jin's people escorted them to Jiangling.

Unexpectedly, the King of Jin sent people to check, and found that the thing was not in Jiangling at all, but they didn't know where it was exactly.

Somehow Wang Yuyan found out about this, and she quickly found Zhao Junyi. The two of them decided to go directly to King Jin and report Master Xue, saying that he had seen the treasure on Master Xue's body.

When he used some tricks to make Mr. Xue take out the treasure to show him, Prince Jin caught him in the act.

In this way, the King of Jin got the treasure, credited Zhao Junyi with a merit, and rewarded him with a thousand taels of silver. However, Master Xue and his family were killed by the King of Jin because they were not sincere.

Zhao Junyi was a scholar and indeed had some talent. In addition, Wang Yuyan always had some strange remarks and ideas, so King Jin was a little curious about the two of them.

But that was all, and I didn’t pay much attention to them afterwards.

Although Zhao Junyi and Wang Yuyan had thousands of taels of silver in their hands, they still had a large family to support. Not to mention the relatives of the two families. If they were in the city, thousands of taels would not last long.

Finally they found a village to settle down, bought some land and built a house, and they were able to make a living.

Later, the King of Jin was beheaded. After a period of fear, he was relieved, and then he was glad that he had nothing to do with the King of Jin.

Soon after hearing that there would be an additional special examination, Zhao Junyi wanted to give it a try, so he came to the capital with Wang Yuyan.

I didn't expect to meet Yun Xi when I came to the capital, and she mentioned to me how they had joined forces with King Jin.

In their opinion, it was impossible for Yunxi to know this with her ability. But she mentioned the Southern King, saying that it was the Southern King who found out the truth.

Who is the Southern King?

He is the future emperor. He will ascend the throne in a few days.

If the King of the South really finds out that they are involved with the King of Jin, I'm afraid their days are over.

Thinking of this, both of their hearts began to beat wildly.

Zhao Junyi also hurriedly denied it, "Yunxi, don't talk nonsense. We have nothing to do with King Jin, so naturally it's fine. I came to the capital to take the exam, and Yuyan just came to accompany me and take care of me."

Yun Xi raised an eyebrow, "Are you two together?"

But seeing that Wang Yuyan is still wearing the same hairstyle as a girl, the two of them probably haven’t gotten married.

Zhao Junyi blushed and denied, "Yuyan is my adopted sister, please be careful with your words."

The relationship between the two has always been a cooperative one, with the same goal, to find a wealthy family in Beijing. But they didn't really get along.

Yun Xi was just gossiping casually. The most important thing today was not the gossip, but to completely suppress the two people.

She had said long ago that if she met the two again, she would not show mercy.

Since they met today, she had no intention of letting them continue to jump around.

"You said it had nothing to do with Prince Jin, but Prince Nan sent people to investigate it thoroughly."

After saying that, he was too lazy to waste time talking to the two of them and shouted directly, "Come here, take him down."

As soon as he finished speaking, several guards dressed as ordinary people appeared and arrested the two men.

"Ahhh... let me go..." Wang Yuyan screamed.

Zhao Junyi also struggled instinctively, "Yun Xi, what do you want to do? You want to murder us in broad daylight, you are too lawless."

Both of them were shocked. They didn't expect that Yun Xi actually had a personal bodyguard.

What happened to her in these two years?

Yun Xi curled her lips and said, "Send him to Jingzhao Yin for a thorough trial."

The guard agreed and was about to take the man away when several men in armor and carrying swords came running towards them.

"Little sister, A Xiu, what happened?" Yun Yan, who was leading the group, ran over and asked nervously.

When he saw that the secret guards were mobilized, he thought that some blind assassins had appeared.

"General Yun." The guards recognized Yun Yan and saluted him together.

Yun Yan nodded and just stared at Yun Xi and Lu Peixiu, worried that they might get hurt.

Yun Xi shook her head to indicate that everything was fine.

Then she raised her chin towards Zhao Junyi and Wang Yuyan. Yun Yan followed her line of sight and saw two people staring at him in surprise.

Suddenly he grinned, revealing his white teeth.

"Oh, isn't this Mr. Zhao and Daya Wang?"

At this moment, Zhao Junyi and Wang Yuyan were extremely shocked that Yun Yan actually became a general.

How did he become a general?

How can this be?

Neither of them could accept this fact.

Especially Zhao Junyi, he was engaged to Yun Xi at the beginning. If he had not broken off the engagement, he would now be the general's brother-in-law.

Although I don't know what kind of general he is or what rank he holds, judging from his posture, his rank should be high.

The two men looked ashen. They had no power and authority now, and they were afraid that they could not defeat Yun Xi and Yun Yan.

"When I killed Prince Jin and his gang, I was wondering why I didn't see you. I didn't expect you to be in the capital. You came to my door on your own accord. Hahahaha——"

Yun Yan laughed triumphantly. His biggest regret till now was that he did not kill Zhao Junyi, allowing him to harm the entire village.

Everyone was shocked. It turned out that the King of Jin was killed by this young general. Everyone stood in awe, with eyes full of admiration and fear.

Zhao Junyi and Wang Yuyan suddenly realized that this was how Yun Yan became a general.

Trembling with fear, how could he become so cruel that he even dared to kill King Jin?

But he dared to kill even the King of Jin, so he would be even more daring to kill them.

Thinking of this, Zhao Junyi's legs trembled, his feet were immediately wet, and he was so scared that he peed his pants.

Yun Yan smelled a scent of urine, pinched his nose, and pulled Yun Xi and Lu Peixiu back two steps.

With a look of disgust, he said, "Zhao Junyi, you are so unrespectable. You urinate everywhere like a beast."

“Hahahaha…” The onlookers burst into laughter.

Zhao Junyi was so ashamed and angry that he dared not say anything back. His head was almost buried in his crotch.

After Yun Yan finished laughing, he asked Yun Xi, "Little sister, what should we do with these two people?"

Yun Xi said, "Send him to Jing Zhao Yin."

Yun Yan waved his hand and was about to take people to Jingzhao Yin.

With a thud, Wang Yuyan knelt down and begged, "Yun Xi Yun Yan, please let me go. I didn't do anything. It really has nothing to do with Prince Jin. It was Zhao Junyi who asked the bandits to go to the village to steal food, not me. Please let me go."

When Zhao Junyi saw Wang Yuyan pleading for mercy, he reacted instantly and his knees softened and he knelt down.

I don’t know why, but the kneecap of one leg suddenly felt excruciatingly painful and my face was distorted.

But she still gritted her teeth and said, "Yun Xi Yun Yan, don't listen to her. It wasn't me. She told the bandits that there was food in the village and that your Yun family had the most. That's why the bandits went to the village. You must believe me. It was really what she said.

No matter what, I can't possibly frame you because I was engaged to Yun Xi. If you let me go, I promise I will never appear in front of you again."

It would have been fine if he didn't mention the engagement, but Yun Yan's face turned cold as soon as he mentioned it.

When Zhao Junyi broke off the engagement as soon as he passed the imperial examination, it was a huge slap in the face of the Yun family.

This person actually dared to bring it up.

Besides, his younger sister is now the Princess of the Southern Kingdom. If everyone knew that he had been engaged to such a thing in the past, even though his younger sister was not wrong, it would not sound good.

"Shut your mouth and take it away."

Several guards did as they were told and quickly took the man away.

Yunxi and Lu Peixiu lost interest in strolling around anymore and returned to the palace.

That night, Yun Xi went to the prison accompanied by Ying Tianchen.

Concise and concise.

To Zhao Junyi: "Thank you for canceling the engagement, otherwise I would not have the chance to marry the King of the South."

Zhao Junyi: No... (I will die with my eyes open)

To Wang Yuyan: "My dear sister, you did so many evil things in your previous life that you even killed your own parents. In this life, I will make you wish you were dead but unable to live. Enjoy the rest of your life in prison."

Wang Yuyan: Ah—— (holding her head and screaming)
