Mrs. Hua hurriedly ran to the village chief and used her usual kneeling technique to kill, with a "pop" sound...

She knelt down in front of the village chief.

"The village chief, Ji Kuan and Xiyao haven't come back yet. Let's wait, otherwise they won't be able to find us when they come back."

In this era of underdeveloped communication, if we get separated, we may never see each other again for the rest of our lives.

How could the village chief not understand this truth?

He sighed heavily and said to Old Lady Hua in a serious voice, "You saw it today, those soldiers are coming in a menacing manner."

"If we continue to stay here, I'm afraid the whole village will suffer!"

Wang Dachun was not the real murderer. The soldiers took him back and did not realize it for a while.

Wait until they react...

You will definitely think that if Wang Dachun is so cowardly, if he is really the real murderer of their brothers, then when they surrounded him...

Why would he just kneel down and beg for mercy?

With his abilities, he should be able to fight them!

By then, they will definitely come back again, and they will definitely not be as easy to fool as they are today!

Therefore, before they react, they must leave immediately in order to save the lives of the entire village.

Mrs. Hua also understands the truth behind this.

But she still wanted to beg the village chief again. If she really couldn't wait, could the village chief come up with some money to help her redeem her son?

Mrs. Hua thought about it and wanted to ask...

But the village chief said one step ahead of her, "If you want to wait for them, then just stay and wait by yourself!!"

He is the head of a village, and he must not give up the lives of the entire village for Hua Jikuan and Hua Xiyao!

He also said, "Not to mention your son, even if my son doesn't come back now, I will make the same decision."

Mrs. Hua was stunned on the spot. What she originally wanted to say about begging the village chief for some money could not be said!

The village chief didn't have time to follow her, so he turned around and walked towards Chu Zhaoci.

When the soldiers left, the village chief had seen Chu Zhaoci and he had something to ask Chu Zhaoci.

He called Chu Zhaoci to a quiet place nearby.

Ask him, "Master Chu knows those soldiers, right?"

Last night, when Chu Zhaoci and Shao Jingheng came to see him, he felt there was something wrong. After seeing off the soldiers today and seeing Chu Zhaoci's expression...

He became more and more certain about the problem!

He was not the village chief of Xingshan Village for nothing, he was still very smart and intuitively understood that Chu Zhaoci was not an ordinary person.

Since Chu Zhaoci was asked...

Then he wouldn't hide it.

"I am a member of the royal family. I came to the border to investigate the military pay case under His Majesty's orders, and found that I have something to do with those fake soldiers."

Chu Zhaoci did not reveal his identity, nor did he explain to him what case he came to investigate about military pay.

Just picking out the highlights!

He was not deliberately hiding it, but was protecting the village chief.

As the saying goes, the more you know, the sooner you will die!

The village chief also knew this truth. He did not delve into it further and said, "I don't care what the young master's status is..."

"But if what the young master wants to do will harm the villagers of my Xingshan Village, then my Xingshan Village will not tolerate the young master!"

He doesn't care who he is...

Because no matter who he is, as a small village leader, he is unable to protect him.

All he can do is protect the villagers.

Therefore, if what Chu Zhaoci wants to do is so big that it will harm the villagers, then he absolutely cannot keep him.

He can't solve the disaster he caused!

Chu Zhaoci guessed that he would say this, and he responded calmly, "Don't worry, village chief, I will leave as soon as possible."

Originally, he didn't plan to stay in Xingshan Village for too long.

When the village chief heard his words, he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but suddenly thought of something and continued.

"There is one more thing, I hope you will forgive me."

"We in Xingshan Village are all helpless villagers. If someone comes to see the Young Master before he leaves..."

"We will not expose the young master, but we will not deliberately protect him either!"

Again, they didn't have the ability to protect him.

Chu Zhaoci understood his thoughts.

Even if he is a prince, he should not let innocent people be put in danger for him, but he should protect the people.

Chu Zhaoci nodded, "Okay."

The village chief took two steps back, bowed deeply to Chu Zhaoci, and said again, "Thank you, Master."

Chu Zhaoci thought he was thanking him for not involving them, but he never thought...

The village chief continued, "Last time when wolves came to attack the village, thanks to Mr. Chu for saving me, I would like to thank Mr. Chu for all the villagers."

If he hadn't mentioned this matter, Chu Zhaoci would have forgotten it.

He mentioned it... then I remembered it.

He smiled lightly, "It doesn't matter!"

This wave of understatement made the village chief stunned.

He also thought that Chu Zhaoci would bring this matter up to negotiate terms with him, at least to continue to stay in the village.

As a result, people didn't care at all.

The village chief had long guessed Chu Zhaoci's approximate identity, and now he is even more certain.

This is indeed a good highness.

The village chief suddenly felt guilty.

It stands to reason that as the people of Tianqi Kingdom, when encountering danger, the people should unconditionally protect the current prince.

This is to sacrifice our lives for everyone.

Just like he gave up waiting for Hua Jikuan and Hua Xiyao and decided to continue setting off, he was also the one who left his home to protect the villagers.

Only incompetent ordinary people like them can protect their capable generals, so that their homeland can be protected from infringement.

Protect thousands of people in Tianqi Kingdom.

However, the village chief is just a common man.

He uses his own abilities to protect his people, which is his best effort. He can't do anything else.

But he finally said, "If everything goes well, I don't mind if the young master continues to stay in the village."

"At the same time, if there is anything I can help you with, please feel free to tell me."

He's talking about me...

In other words, he will only try his best to help you, but he will not risk the lives of the entire village to help you.

There is very little that can be done to help.

It's nothing more than daily life.

Chu Zhaoci was already very grateful and thanked the village chief, "Thank you very much, village chief!"

The village chief did not stop his gift.

Now that he is outside, Chu Zhaoci can give him this salute, which shows that he does not have the airs of a prince.

Then there is no need for him to be too deliberate!

The villagers over there have packed their luggage and bedding, and are ready to continue their journey.

Mrs. Hua still misses Hua Jikuan...

Several times I have the urge to go to the town to find Hua Jikuan, but I also think about the time I am about to reach my other son...

Moreover, Hua Jikuan's son, Hua Jiahui, was also in their team. She finally convinced herself...

Although Jikuan hasn't come back yet, she left with Jikuan's son, even if Jikuan can't find them in the future...

But she also helped him raise his son.

It’s just that Ji Kuan’s roots are still there!!

It was for Jiahui that she had to continue to move forward with the army. When he found Heir, he would definitely let Heir give Jiahui the best guidance.

Worthy of Ji Kuan!

Furthermore, she worked hard and tried hard to wait for him to come back, but it was because he wasted his time and didn't come back for a long time.

This...can't blame her.

There was nothing she could do about it.

The old lady comforted herself and forced Li and Hua Jiahui, who were crying, to pack their bags quickly.
Chapter completed!
