After transmigrating into a book, she became the farmer's wife of the villain

Chapter 49 Traitor

Melome went out alone, wandering around, hoping to find some business opportunities.

Shuangcheng County is indeed much larger than Shuanghe Town, and even has a few more streets, and it is more lively.

When Melomei came to a place, she suddenly heard loud noises. When she looked up, she saw the crowd shaking upstairs.

It turned out that I had unknowingly gone downstairs to a tavern, touched my stomach, and entered the tavern one by one.

Went up to the second floor, ordered a few dishes, a pot of tea, and listened to the stories of the people in the lobby downstairs while eating.

On the platform downstairs sat a storyteller, elegant and handsome in a blue gown.

"Last time we mentioned that the No. 70 concubine of Jun Gaozu was pregnant and gave birth to a Lin'er, who was the nineteenth prince."

The storyteller cleared his throat, raised his hand and patted the gavel, and then slowly said: "Today we continue to talk about the Nineteenth Prince. It is said that when the Nineteenth Prince was born, it was a scorching summer and the weather was hot, but as the ten The birth of the Ninth Prince was suddenly accompanied by thunder and lightning, strong winds, and heavy rain in an instant."

"There was a vision from the sky, and the national teacher counted it out. He said that there was a demon boy in the southeast, which might endanger the dragon veins of the country. Emperor Gaozu was shocked when he heard this, and ordered the national teacher to quickly find him."

"Everyone searched all the way, and finally found Liluoyuan. At this time, a palace official reported that the No. 70 second concubine of Liluoyuan suddenly collapsed and was unable to return to heaven."

"When Jun Gaozu entered, people were already stiff, and a generation of favorite concubines died unexpectedly."

"The national teacher predicts that the newborn baby is a demon boy. He is a person who will bring disaster to the country and the people. He must be sentenced to the death penalty. The matter has come to an end at this point, but who would have expected this to be heard by a maid next to the beloved concubine, who hugged her The baby escaped from the palace, and no one knows what tunnel she went to."

After the storyteller finished speaking, he reached out to pick up the teacup next to him, and drank the tea in one gulp.

"Then what? Have you found the demon boy?"

Stopping at a critical moment immediately aroused people's curiosity and hurriedly asked questions.

Although Melomei didn't really believe in demon boys, she couldn't hold back her interest in the story, so she stretched her neck and looked at the storyteller with wide eyes.

The storyteller aroused everyone's curiosity, and then he said slowly: "Three years have passed in a flash, Jun Gaozu was seriously ill and passed away. It was 15 years ago, and the crown prince succeeded to the throne in the same year, who is our current Majesty His Majesty pardoned the world and ordered people to search for this half-brother, but the search was fruitless until the nineteenth prince suddenly appeared in the palace six years ago."

Audience [-]: "Ah...how did he get in?"

Audience [-]: "Is he really the nineteenth prince? It can't be fake, right?"

Audience [-]: "Didn't you say that he is a demon boy? Why is the emperor looking for him?"

Audience [-]: "You don't know that, our emperor is kind, can he not take care of his half-brother?"

Audience Five: "That's right."

Audience [-]: "What happened next?"

For a while, everyone was discussing, Melomei ate all the dishes, took a sip of tea, and held the cup thoughtfully.

Things, I'm afraid it will not be so simple!
"Quiet." The storyteller patted the gavel again, and stood up, "I want to hear what happens next, please listen to the next chapter to break it down."

Everyone: "..."

The author, Kawen, has a set. I didn't expect the ancient storyteller, Kashu, to have a set.

Melomei didn't ask any more questions, stood up, went to the front desk to pay the money, and continued walking.

As I was walking, I suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes behind me, and hurried to avoid it.

Two fast horses galloped past, and finally slowed down after walking a certain distance. Two men in government uniform got off their horses, took something from the horse's back, unfolded it, and stuck it to the wall next to it. .

"Everyone come and take a look. If you see this person and report it quickly, provide clues to reward 100 taels of silver, and help the government catch this person 1000 taels. If you can catch him and send him to the government, you will be rewarded with 5000 taels of silver."

The two yamen servants put up the notice and beat the gong three more times before reading out the content of the notice.

"5000 taels, I may not be able to earn so much silver in my life. But the reward is so high, is this person a big devil?"

"It's not the devil, but it's more terrifying than the devil. Didn't it say that? This person is collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, and it is a crime of treason."

There was a literate scholar who read the announcement and pointed to it to explain to others.

"Treason? That's not something everyone can get and punish. This person's conscience has been eaten by a dog, and he dares to betray the country. Bah..."

The people who read the notice were filled with righteous indignation, pointing at the notice, spitting, and shouting for beating and killing.

After people had seen enough, Melomei walked over.

She also wanted to see the ancient version of the notice.

Taking a closer look at the notice, I saw that there were various charges of collaborating with the enemy and traitorous country written on it, and it also mentioned the rules for offering rewards.

"This……?"

After reading the words, Melomei went to look at the portrait. She felt that the person above was very young. It seemed that she was only eleven or twelve years old, and she was very familiar.

When I look carefully, I can't see anything, because the ancient portraits are really abstract, except for the charm, it seems that there are no other features at all.

Melomei twitched, really unable to connect this boy with the crime of treason, but now that he saw the arrest warrant, it showed that the imperial court paid more attention to this person, and he would not stop until he was found.

"Girl, do you know this person?"

Melome was watching seriously, when suddenly someone came over to strike up a conversation with her.

"do not know."

Melomei shook her head, ready to leave.

"Xiaosheng saw the girl here for a long time, and thought she knew her."

It was a scholar who came to talk to him, and he looked harmless to humans and animals when he laughed.

"If the girl knows this person, she can provide some clues, and maybe she can get some rewards."

"I don't know him. I'm just curious that this traitor is so young, so I couldn't help but take a few more glances." Melomei's complexion was not good.

The scholar made it seem like she didn't report what she knew.

"Oh. So, Xiaosheng thought the girl knew this person."

The scholar looked at the person on the notice and said sarcastically: "This is not to be judged by appearance."

He said again: "This man is still a member of the royal family, and now he has taken refuge in the enemy's country. Do you think our Majesty can spare him?"

"A member of the royal family?"

"Of course, the nineteenth prince of the late emperor was a demon boy from birth. Now His Majesty has mercifully forgiven him and granted him a title to guard the border. Unexpectedly, he recharged his energy and turned to the enemy to betray the country, resulting in the death of more than [-] soldiers at the border. The border almost fell."

The scholar was indignant and gritted his teeth, as if he wanted to tear off the person in the painting and tear it into pieces.

"You seem to hate him?"

Melome looked at the notice again, and had to ask the question in her heart.

"It's not hating, it's just being shameless. This kind of traitor is punishable by everyone."

He stared at Melomei and said word by word: "What do you mean girl?"

Are you testing me?

Melomei smiled slightly, "Indeed, traitors can be punished by everyone."
