The wronged female supporting role made a comeback with a divine reply

Chapter 222 Shen Tang

Bai Zhaozhao had no choice but to hand over the banknote obediently, and then said, "Uncle Master, Master Xie told me not to tell anyone about his whereabouts. I agreed, and I want some benefits at the same time. This doesn't count as blackmail, right?"

Wang Jinnian nodded: "Well, not really, he has plenty of money."

Bai Zhaozhao suddenly asked curiously, "Uncle Master, he also said that when you were in the mountains before, you often framed him to take the blame. Is that true or false?"

Wang Jinnian suddenly turned his head and looked at Bai Zhaozhao, his expression was inexplicable: "What do you think?"

Bai Zhaozhao was frightened by the sharp gaze: "I think it must be fake! Uncle Master, you are so wise and powerful, how could you possibly plot against others!"

Wang Jin laughed young: "It seems that he told you a lot of things!"

Bai Zhaozhao's eyes flickered, and he chuckled twice: "Just a little bit!"

No, I can't ask anymore. Wang Jinnian is not only hard to deceive but also very vigilant. As expected, it is easier to trick Xie Xingmeng.

Tsk tsk, my chosen master, I missed you on the first day I left!

So Bai Zhaozhao tried to change the subject. She asked, "By the way, Uncle Master, why do I feel like Governor He is looking at me in a weird way? Does he know something?"

For example, her relationship with He Anyu as uncle and niece.

Wang Jinnian calmly replied, "Yes, there was follow-up news from the capital, so he guessed your identity and confirmed it with me."

"Identity? That shouldn't matter! Why do I always feel like he wanted to talk to me, but gave up in the end?"

Wang Jinnian was stunned for a moment, then he figured something out and explained, "When Governor He was young, he liked a girl and was going to propose marriage to her, but that girl was suddenly married off to the capital by someone in her family and became a second wife. Guess who she was?"

Bai Zhaozhao fell into memories. The capital city and the second wife, were they still related to her?

Bai Zhaozhao was surprised and said, "It's Princess An?!"

Wang Jinnian: “Not bad!”

Bai Zhaozhao suddenly realized. No wonder He Anyu told her to pretend not to know him when she was in Prince An’s Mansion!

Are you afraid of affecting Princess An's mood?

However, so many years have passed, and Princess An and Prince An are living in harmony. So what if they bring up the past?

As for Governor He, he was emotional but polite. He seemed to be hesitant to speak to Bai Zhaozhao. He probably wanted to ask about Princess An's recent situation, right? But he didn't say anything in the end.

It's just... hard to comment.

"By the way, Zhao Zhao, we will also stay in Jiangling for two days."

"Well, I know, uncle. I still have to go to the Yu family. What about you? Where are you going?"

"Me? I'm not going anywhere. I'll just follow you!"

"So what do you mean by staying for two days?"

"Princess An's family is in Jiangling. Her mother is still alive. You should visit her."

"Ah? Oh my god! I didn't prepare anything!"

"What are you preparing for? Don't you have money?"

“…I’m talking about mental preparation!”

"Be prepared mentally? Prepare some gifts for meeting someone?"

"Uncle Master! Am I that kind of person?"

"……Yes!"

Bai Zhaozhao: Received a critical hit of 10,000 points!

No, she decided not to talk to Wang Jinnian for two days!

a few days later.

Bai Zhaozhao found out that they could reach Jiangling by crossing another village. More and more people were traveling on the official road here, including small vendors, large caravans, ordinary people and dignitaries.

It is worthy of being the largest city in Jiangnan. I can sense its prosperity before I even enter.

"Quick, let's go!"

"Hit him, beat him!"

Suddenly, a group of angry voices came from afar. Bai Zhaozhao saw a group of people walking on the small path beside the official road. They were all dressed as ordinary people. Several people in the middle were carrying a large wooden cage, in which was a ragged man who howled from time to time.

"Stupid! You are all fools. You have all been deceived! Hahaha!"

"Hit him! Beat him!"

Every time he howled, the people outside would hit him with sticks. People on the official road were attracted by this scene and stopped to watch.

Bai Zhaozhao looked at Wang Jinnian, who was staring at the man with a frown.

Until the group of people crossed the official road and headed in another direction.

Bai Zhaozhao heard the discussions among the people around him, saying that this group of people were all villagers from the village in front, and they were now going to sink the man in the cage into the pond!

Sinking into the pond? Bai Zhaozhao was stunned. Did this man commit a crime?

Before I had time to think about it, I heard Wang Jinnian say, "Zhao Zhao, go stop them. I'll go to the city and ask the government to come and take care of it."

"Okay, uncle!"

Bai Zhaozhao rode her horse and followed. She didn’t expect Wang Jinnian to take care of this matter. Moreover, if he wanted to save the man, he could just save him directly. Why did the government have to intervene?

But Bai Zhaozhao soon understood. When she intercepted the group of people on horseback, they did not panic, but just stopped and looked at her calmly.

The middle-aged man who led the group saluted towards Bai Zhaozhao in a friendly manner: "Miss, are you from out of town? You are the third distinguished person who has stopped us!"

Noble? Indeed, Prince An said that one should respect the clothes first and then the person, so Bai Zhaozhao was dressed very well and it was obvious that she was worth a lot of money.

Bai Zhaozhao nodded: "I heard that you want to sink him into the pond?"

"That's right!" the middle-aged man replied, "Your Excellency may not know, but this man is called Wan Weishang. He has been slandering the goddess, spreading lies to confuse the people, and preventing people from going to the goddess temple to worship! He even tried to destroy the goddess temple! The villagers could no longer tolerate it, and finally decided to sink him into the pond!"

Bai Zhaozhao was shocked. The goddess temple? Worship? Could it be what she thought it meant?

The middle-aged man thought that after she was shocked, she would leave like the others before her, so he waved goodbye and prepared to move on.

Unexpectedly, Bai Zhaozhao actually drew out his soft sword and swung out a sword energy, splitting the huge rock next to him into two halves!

Instantly, the whole audience was shocked!

The middle-aged man and the villagers looked at each other, and some people who came from the official road to watch the excitement were also whispering.

Bai Zhaozhao asked expressionlessly, "Is the goddess you are talking about the one who appeared in Yuzhou?"

The middle-aged man quickly replied, "Of course! Ever since the news of the goddess's appearance came out last year, we in Jiangling have built a temple for the goddess! The government is very supportive!"

Bai Zhaozhao frowned and said, "I remember the goddess said that there is no need for offerings or sacrifices!"

This time, not only the middle-aged man, but also other people around started to explain to Bai Zhaozhao.

They did not offer anything to the goddess temple, nor did they organize any sacrificial activities, and they did not even draw lots or ask for divination. They simply knelt down and prayed to the goddess statue and made wishes.

After the temple of the goddess was built, many surrounding villages cooperated with the government and abolished the previous practice of human sacrifice.

Thinking about it this way, it is normal for the government to support the Temple of the Goddess.

Bai Zhaozhao couldn't help but ask: "Does your wish come true?"

"It works! It works really well!"

Bai Zhaozhao:!!!

"impossible?"
