Nanxun Town is under the jurisdiction of Huzhou Prefecture. Therefore, it is not far from Huzhou Prefecture. In Nanxun Town, a fast horse was flying to a wealthy mansion.

The owner of this house is either an official with status or a businessman who has paid a lot of money for illegal payments. This situation is very common in Jiangnan.

The owner of the house is a middle-aged man who looks like a scholar, but there is a hint of sinisterness in the corner of his eyes. He is not a good person to talk to. After hearing the report, he smiled sinisterly: "A small township chief suddenly got the favor of the emperor, but he doesn't know how much he weighs. This time, you have to tell you what a profound foundation is! Some things are not something you can do if you meet the favor of the emperor!"

After saying that, he thought for a moment, then called his confidant housekeeper and whispered: "Go and act according to the plan!"

At this time, Chen Youming did not sleep all night, with bloodshot eyes. After searching for it all night, he searched for it inside and outside the town, but two living people, one big and one small, disappeared. At this time, he realized that someone probably came to him.

Although he was still barely handling official duties, he was obviously absent-minded. He himself actually understood that Nanxun Town was a huge piece of fat. Before, no one had ever thought about it, but he had contacted him openly and secretly, thinking about getting benefits from Nanxun Town. But he refused all these things. He originally thought that with his relationship with the emperor, it would be okay even if he refused, and no one could touch him.

But unexpectedly, those people did not come to touch themselves, but they attacked their families! Their son, the only baby son, if there was an accident...

Chen Youming thought about this, but he was a little afraid to think about it any more.

In the afternoon, the prefect of Huzhou Prefecture personally sent someone to inquire about the matter, and even wanted to draw elite captains from the mansion to help him investigate. This kind of good intention is impossible for other township heads. Not to mention township heads, even county magistrates, are impossible.

Chen Youming temporarily declined this. Before becoming the village chief, he was a friend who traveled around the world, so he naturally had some knowledge. Those people kidnapped their son, so there must be some explanation. If the constable intervened too deeply here, it would be very difficult to get out of trouble.

Sure enough, as he expected, when it was just dark, someone threw a piece of paper wrapped in it to his house through the wall.

In the inner courtyard, Chen Youming's wife was already crying and said to Chen Youming: "Master, what should I do? Who are these people? Let's not speak anymore, and we also want to tell the outside world that it was a misunderstanding. My son just went to the countryside to play. If he didn't listen to them, he would send it to him... the fingers that sent Zhong'er over! Poor Zhong'er, who is still so young, was so frightened. If he had fewer fingers, what would he do?"

Chen Youming heard this and sighed, "No matter who he is, since he has no eyes at the moment, he can only do what they say."

After saying that, he looked at his wife and daughter crying, and comforted him again: "Those people must have a purpose and should not do anything to Zhong'er for the time being!"

"Keep... But what if they force you to do something that violates the laws of the Ming Dynasty?" His wife was obviously not stupid and said worriedly, "Otherwise, why would she have to kidnap Zhong'er?"

She knew her husband in her heart and was given the emperor's kindness, so she adhered to her principles and refused to let down the will of the saint. But now, others are threatening her with their most precious son.

Chen Youming was silent for a while after hearing this. He didn't know this, but... he originally thought that he would only keep the emperor's kindness in this life and he had no other thoughts, but when he thought of his son, his heart hurts so much.

"Look at it again, do as they ask first!" Chen Youming sighed and said slowly.

His wife was speechless when she heard this, and suddenly she spoke again: "You always say that Zhong'er is lucky and lucky in this life. But...but such things fell on him. Thinking that he is now tied to something by those bad people, and whether he has eaten or drunk water. My heart... is very...

Before he finished speaking, tears couldn't stop falling.

Chen Youming didn't want to see his wife like this, so he went out to arrange things.

They didn't know that Chen Jingzhong was happily hiding and hiding with the two imperial concubines at this time.

"Have you hidden it? I'm here to look for it!" Concubine Tian looked at Emperor Chongzhen with a smile on her face, and asked at the same time.

Seeing this, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but shake his head, bullying the child, what is the ability?

Sure enough, Chen Jingzhong didn't know anything at all. He hid behind the curtain, exposed his feet, and responded: "Hide it!"

When Concubine Tian heard the sound, she discovered it at a glance. But she pretended to go to another place to look for it, and finally found Chen Jingzhong.

On the other hand, when Chen Jingzhong went to find him, Hai Lanzhu made trouble and secretly gave the little kid some advice.

In a rare warm moment, Emperor Chongzhen watched them play for a while, and then went to the chat group to handle government affairs.

A little later, Liu Xingzuo reported the situation.

After pondering for a moment, he gave instructions.

A day actually passed quickly, but for Chen Youming's family, it was really like a year.

After doing it as required by the other party, Nanxun Town returned to peace. Most people thought that the affairs of the Chen Township Chief’s family were just a false alarm, but those who were interested could see that it was abnormal. For example, Chen Youming went home early before the day was dark.

As soon as he arrived home, he found that his wife was kneeling in front of the wing where the emperor had lived.

Seeing him come back, his wife said with a little swollen eyes: "I don't know how Zhong'er is doing? I hope the emperor is very compassionate and save Zhong'er!"

Chen Youming was speechless and couldn't help but say, "The emperor is not Guanyin. You are here to worship. The emperor is far away in the capital. Can you know?"

"Last time, our family was missed by the old patriarch and was about to destroy the family. But you could have imagined that the emperor who was far away in the capital would come to our house to help us overcome such a crisis?" His wife said with hope in her eyes, "Maybe, this time, we encountered such a dangerous thing again. Maybe the emperor would appear and help our family overcome this difficulty!"

"Mom is right, my brother will definitely be fine." The little girl kneeling beside her mother was also quite sensible. She immediately nodded and agreed, "The emperor is the purple star in the sky, and she will definitely bless my brother."

"Okay!" Although Chen Youming answered this way, he didn't believe it. Only women and Taoists would have such thoughts. He really thought that the emperor was omnipotent!

If his wife wants to worship, she will worship him, and he has no intention of defending this matter. In fact, he was very worried at this time. He actually knew that he was worthy of others' concern, and it was not possible to use such despicable means to force himself to submit in secret, which must be for the huge interests of Nanxun Town.

It’s just helpless that I have no power in the world, and even my helpers are just some tribe members. It’s okay to manage Nanxun Town, but there is really nothing I can do if I leave Nanxun Town.

As he expected, the contact between the evil men was what he was worried about again, and the lion opened his mouth and wanted to take a bite from the huge lake silk cake in Nanxun Town.

That night, Chen Youming and his wife suffered from insomnia again.

If you agree to them, you will be sorry to the emperor and let down the holy grace. But if you don’t agree to them, your precious son will be torn to by them. It is really a dilemma for Chen Youming and his wife.

"Master, what should I do?" Chen Youming's wife's voice was a little hoarse, "I will reply tomorrow, my poor Zhonger! Woo woo..."

"Oh!" Chen Youming sighed. It's all because of today's grace. But what should I do if my son is doing? His voice, appearance, smile, and when he thinks of it, his heart is like a knife.

Chen Youming's wife cried for a while, and suddenly muttered to herself: "The emperor is not omnipotent! My loyal, you said he is lucky. Alas, he is really suffering from his life!"

"..." The facts were in front of him, and Chen Youming was silent.

It was another night when Chen Youming was restless and anxious. The set time was before noon. If the signal was not released, his son's fingers would be sent over.

At this moment, the gatekeeper suddenly came to report: "Master, there is a stranger outside the door asking for a meeting, saying, "Master, you will naturally know who he is when you see him."

When Chen Youming and his wife were shocked when they heard this, they looked at each other, and their faces were ugly. Those people couldn't wait so much, and they actually sent someone to come to urge them. It seems that they really deserved to be able to do so?

No matter what, Chen Youming was going to see his servants. Unexpectedly, his wife insisted on going and said to him: "Master, I am worried about Zhonger. I must ask you clearly in person. I don't know how my miserable Zhonger is now?"

Chen Youming had no choice but to agree.

In the front living room, neither of the couple took a seat. They stood there and watched the doorman bring in a tall man with a hat and a face covering.

Seeing this, the couple looked at each other and understood what each other meant. Judging from their body shape, they knew that they were someone who could beat them, and they were in the world, and there was no doubt that the thief was thieves!

"Two, don't be fine!" As he said, the visitor took off his hat, showed his true face, and a smile on his face.

After seeing the person coming clearly, Chen Youming and his wife were both shocked, their mouths were wide open, and they were stunned.

"Why, I don't know each other?"

Hearing this question with a smile, Chen Youming was called back to his senses and immediately said: "Sir... Commander, why are you... here?"

The person who came was Liu Xingzuo, the commander of the Jinyiwei. The last time he accompanied Emperor Chongzhen to visit him in a private visit, he lived in his house. Therefore, Chen Youming and his wife knew him.

When Liu Xingzuo heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "I am naturally here!"

When they heard this, Chen Youming and his wife were shocked again. They originally thought that the reason why Liu Xingzuo came here might be because he came to work in the surrounding area. After learning about his own affairs, they came over to take a look. Unexpectedly, it was the emperor who came here again.

Seeing the shocked look of the couple, Liu Xingzuo actually sighed in his heart that God really blessed the couple. Every time there was something wrong, the emperor would be caught by the emperor. I really don’t know how many blessings it was for, but he actually asked the Saint to help their family solve their problems. There is really no one else!

Before they could come back to their senses, Liu Xingzuo said, "The emperor was traveling in a very quiet southern tour, and he wanted to come to Nanxun Town to see it. Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived in Nanxun Town, he happened to be seen by Concubine Tian. Some gangsters kidnapped your son. Now he has been rescued by the emperor and is being placed in a safe place..."

Hearing this, Chen Youming's wife showed an incredible expression, regardless of the difference between men and women, and ignored Liu Xingzuo's identity. She stepped forward and grabbed Liu Xingzuo's sleeve, chased and asked, "How is my son... how is my son? Are you okay?"

Seeing this, Liu Xingzuo frowned slightly, but he also understood the mood of being a mother, so he broke free from her hand without a trace, and then smiled and said, "Your son is very good, two concubines accompany him to play with. None of the children in the world have this blessing!"

Hearing this, Chen Youming's wife suddenly felt her legs were weak and could no longer stand and she softened her lower body.

Fortunately, Chen Youming quickly supported him with a quick hand and smiled, but saw his wife saying to him with a smile: "I said, the emperor will bless our family. It's okay, it's okay..."

Knowing that her son was fine, she let go of her heart, and she felt that her body was already exhausted.

In fact, Chen Youming himself was almost the same. But he still held back, first accused Liu Xingzuo of guilt, helped his wife to the inner room, and then came back. This time, as soon as he entered the room, he worshiped Liu Xingzuo with great gifts, and the gratitude in his heart was beyond words.

After a while, Liu Xingzuo asked seriously: "Ask him according to the will of Your Majesty, Chen Youming obeys the order!"

There is nothing else, so I will naturally ask about the relevant situation.

After Chen Youming reported the truth, he quickly emphasized and explained: "The officials did not agree to them."

Hearing this, Liu Xingzuo smiled slightly and said, "No, you have to promise them, the emperor wants to see who stretched out his hand. If they have any requirements, you can do it."

With the emperor's will, it would be a big deal. Chen Youming naturally understood this point, and any threat or handle would not be useful. Therefore, he immediately agreed.

Before leaving, Liu Xingzuo told Chen Youming: "It was the emperor who was afraid that you would worry, so he asked me to tell you about this. You should know the right position and play your role well, and treat it as if you are still in their hands."

Regarding this, not to mention that Chen Youming had traveled a lot in the past, but just being the village head and having been practicing for a long time, he naturally knew what to do, so he agreed repeatedly.

As soon as Liu Xingzuo left, Chen Youming immediately sent a signal as agreed. He was also curious about who the mastermind was, so unlucky that he met the emperor in person!
