"Grandma, we are all fine." Ni Chen held up Wang's face and gave her a kiss: "My parents are also fine. They even rescued people from the bottom of the cliff."

Only then did Wang, Ni Tiezhi, and others notice Guan Chenyun and the others who were sitting on the ground with embarrassed looks on their faces: "They also fell off the cliff from here?"

Ni Ge nodded: "Yes, the teacher's carriage and our ox cart both fell from here. So, we think something is strange."

Ni Tiezhi's face suddenly became solemn: "Do you want to report to the official?"

Ni Ge glanced at Guan Chenyun and said: "Teacher, the student thinks it is better to report to the official. After all, the newly appointed magistrate of Kaiyang County is trustworthy."

Guan Chenyun asked in confusion: "Ni Ge, why do you think a county magistrate is trustworthy? Do you know him?"

Ni Ge nodded: "I know. The county magistrate just arrested a group of bad guys in Kaiyang County a few days ago. Now is the time to win the hearts of the people."

"If you want to report to the official, just do it!" Guan Chenyun waved his hand helplessly: "Since I can't leave here as a teacher, why not ask the county magistrate to pick me up and take me into the city."

Ni Hua took the initiative and said: "Now that I have decided, I will go to the county for a run."

After Ni Hua left, Ni Tiezhi and Wang noticed the title between Ni Ge and Guan Chenyun, and asked in confusion: "Ni Ge, is this old gentleman your teacher?"

Only then did Ni Ge remember that he had not introduced both parties: "Yes, parents, this is Mr. Guan Chenyun, the teacher I just had. Teacher, these are my parents. The one who just went to the county to report to the official position is my eldest brother. This is It’s my second brother.”

Ni Ge introduced his family members to Guan Chenyun one by one. The Ni family also met Guan Chenyun and warmly invited Guan Chenyun to live at his home.

"Forget it, I won't bother you anymore." Guan Chenyun waved his hand: "I have to arrive at the county seat today, so I'd better wait here for the county magistrate."

Seeing that he insisted on staying here, the Ni family waited with him.

They didn't wait long before Ni Hua came with Xiao Tai. In fact, after Ye Xi and the others fell off the cliff, Sang Huai and the others secretly informed Xiao Tai.

"Ye Xi, I heard that you fell off the cliff." Xiao Tai rushed over in a hurry, with no intention of concealing his relationship with Ye Xi: "Are Chen'er okay? Are you okay?"

"Cousin, I'm fine." Ye Xi picked up Ni Chen and put him in Xiao Tai's arms: "Chen'er is fine too, you can see for yourself."

Xiao Tai hugged Ni Chen and carefully checked the little guy's body. When he saw that he was indeed not injured at all, he looked at Guan Chenyun and others and asked, "This old gentleman also fell from here?"

Guan Chenyun nodded: "Guan fell from here."

"You are Mr. Guan." Xiao Tai bowed to Guan Chenyun when he heard this and said, "Let me just say, most people would not go to great lengths. Since you are Mr. Guan, it is not surprising."

Guan Chenyun narrowed his eyes dangerously: "Do you know someone is plotting against me?"

Xiao Tai took out a piece of grass from his sleeve and handed it to Guan Chenyun: "Sir, do you recognize this bellflower?"

Guan Chenyun took the bluebell and shook his head: "Why should I know this kind of weed?"

Xiao Tai walked to the dead cow and raised his hand to open the cow's closed mouth. Guan Chenyun saw that there were still unchewed weeds stuffed in the cow's teeth.

Xiao Tai took out the weed and compared it with the bellflower in Guan Chenyun's hand. He could vaguely see that it was the same plant.

Xiao Tai walked up to the horse again and opened the mouth of the dead horse. There were also pieces of weeds inside. He took out the pieces of grass. There was still half a leaf and he could tell that it was a bellflower.

Guan Chenyun's eyes narrowed: "But such weeds are everywhere, it doesn't mean that someone is plotting against me." Xiao Tai smiled: "Mr. Guan, do you want to ask them? They are all villagers nearby, look at them Do you recognize this kind of grass?"

Ni Tiezhi, Old Man Wang and others, as well as the villagers from Xinghua Village who came to watch the excitement, all came over to look at the bluebells.

After seeing it, everyone shook their heads: "We have never seen this kind of weed nearby."

Xiao Tai nodded: "Bluebells grow in humid and miasmatic places. There is no such environment in Kaiyang County. In other words, there is not a single wild bluebell in Kaiyang County."

"Mr. Guan, it seems that the other party is very thoughtful. If we had not met Ni Ge and Ye Xi today, everyone would have thought that the deaths of your master and servants were accidents."

Guan Chenyun was silent for a while: "Since the county magistrate thinks it is murder, let's find out the murderer who murdered me. I have been delayed here long enough and want to go to the county seat as soon as possible. I don't know if the county magistrate can Give me a ride?"

Xiao Tai chuckled: "I am willing to serve Mr. Guan."

The secret guard next to Xiao Tai ran over: "Master Qi, the carriage will be here in as long as it takes a stick of incense."

Xiao Tai nodded: "Old sir, please wait another quarter of an hour."

Guan Chenyun didn't care and took Ni Ge to study his homework.

Ni Ge answered every question fluently, and even gained some sincerity from Guan Chenyun.

Until the carriage arrived, he pulled Ni Ge into a carriage.

Ye Xi and Ni Chen were sitting in another carriage. The mother and son were next to each other, and they were very bored.

"Mom, you and dad scared me today." Ni Chen hugged Ye Xi's arm: "I'm so scared~"

Ye Xi grabbed Ni Chen's hand and comforted him: "Chen'er, don't be afraid. Aren't father and mother doing well?"

Ni Chen took out a jade pendant from his sleeve and handed it to Ye Xi: "Mother, this is the jade pendant I picked up on the edge of the cliff. Do you care about the old gentleman?"

Ye Xi took the jade pendant and was already certain about the word "Guan" on it.

She pinched Ni Chen's nose: "We were on the edge of the cliff just now, why didn't you take it out?"

Ni Chen scratched his head in embarrassment: "Mom, I just forgot."

Ye Xi glared at Ni Chen coquettishly, opened the car curtain and said to Xiao Tai who was riding a horse: "This is the jade pendant that Chen'er picked up on the edge of the cliff. My cousin asked me if I care about the old gentleman?"

Xiao Tai took the jade pendant, chased after him on horseback, opened the curtain of the car in front and handed the jade pendant in.

"Mr. Guan, this is the jade pendant that Chen'er picked up. Can you see if it's yours?"

Guan Chenyun's eyes lit up when he saw Xiao Tai handing the jade pendant in. Then he took the jade pendant and laughed: "Yes, this is indeed my jade pendant. Ni Ge, my teacher just said that I would like to take this jade pendant." A jade pendant is passed on to you. With it, your senior brothers will help you unconditionally in the future."

Ni Ge's heart skipped a beat. In his previous life, King Ding got this jade pendant and said that he was a close disciple of Guan Chenyun, thus gaining the support of knowledgeable people in the world.

Haha, it turns out that King Ding picked up the throne from his previous life! How ridiculous!
  Without this jade pendant, King Ding would be nothing.
