My Ancient Stepson Bootcamp

Uncle Chu nodded, and said to the waiter in the shop that the group of them came from the southeast of Xia Kingdom, and his master wanted to send a batch of goods to the capital, and he also said that he would not go to Qiyang if he knew there were any rebels.

"If you want to go to the capital, don't let us go to Yangyang. It will take a long time to go around. The news in the southeast is slow, and the guest officials don't know. Just a few days ago, Qi Guogong rebelled, and now everyone is arresting him. The rebels of Duke Qi’s mansion, let me tell you one more thing, this capital is not peaceful, guest officer, please be careful!” The shop clerk is kind, seeing that Uncle Chu has nothing else to ask, and at this time because of the closure of the city, he came to stay in the shop The number of guests increased, and he went to work.

Uncle Chu put down his wine glass and went out again. When he came back from the outside, he went to see Xu Junze and Lin Shuran who were staying in the room, and then told them all the news he had found out.

Uncle Chu told them that Xiao Jingde, Duke of Qi in Xia State, led his personal guards and his family to break out from the capital of Xia State ten days ago. He heard that he was secretly cooperating with the princes from all over the country to rebel. The imperial court has been sending troops to pursue To kill them, some officers and soldiers discovered that the Xiao family's rebels had entered the city of Suyang, so they sealed the city gates, intending to capture the rebels who broke into the city.

"Xiao Jingde turned against him?" Xu Junze only had a slight surprise on his face when he heard this, but his eyes revealed that he was not surprised by this, and Lin Shuran who was on the side curiously asked him if he knew this person.

Only then did Xu Junze tell her that when he was in Xia State, he had met Xiao Jingde, the Duke of Qi of Xia State, and this Duke of Qi had secretly helped him several times, and he was even able to take his mother Feng Rong with him. It was thanks to Xiao Jingde's help that the princess's coffin left Xia Guo safely.

Not only that, Xiao Jingde is very prestigious in the Xia Kingdom, he is very important in the hearts of civil and military officials and the common people, he is a man of integrity with a heart for the common people, and he is brave and courageous in his actions, with excellent strategies, and he can distinguish right from wrong, Xu Junze treats him well I admire it very much.

Precisely because Xiao Jingde is more popular with officials and common people than Duan Mastiff, the monarch of Xia Kingdom, and those members of the Duan family royal family, so the two brothers Duan Mastiff and Duan Jie have always regarded him as a thorn in their side and a thorn in their flesh, and they want to get rid of him quickly.

"According to what you said, this Duke of Qi is also a great person. Now that he is rumored to rebel, I think he was forced to the extreme by Duan's family." Xu Junze said that this person had saved him, although Lin Shuran didn't know this before. She is the Duke of Qi, but she already has a good impression of him in her heart. In her opinion, there may not be many good people in the Duan family royal family.

Xu Junze asked Uncle Chu to inquire about the exact information about the so-called "rebels" in secret. Duke Qi had helped him back then, and he wanted to repay this kindness.

Soon, a team of officers and soldiers came to the inn to search. After entering the Kingdom of Xia, Xu Junze made sufficient preparations for the trip. There were no problems with the way guides and identities, and they also found that these officers and soldiers seemed to be emphasizing Asking some children questions.

After another secret investigation by Uncle Chu, Xu Junze and Lin Shuran learned that what the officers and soldiers were looking for were three men, two women and five children. They were all young masters and ladies of Duke Qi's mansion. The people who escorted them were all dead. The five of them fled into Qiyang In the city, the government also posted a notice that those who caught five people would be rewarded by the court.

"Find them before the officers and soldiers find out!" Xu Junze ordered to Uncle Chu.

At this time, the night was hazy, and the officers and soldiers who were looking for people still didn't stop, and they didn't know if they could leave Quyang tomorrow?But he still decided to help the Xiao family, and he couldn't just watch Xiao Jingde's descendants get arrested.

Fortunately, news came out early the next morning that the gates of Suyang City could be opened today, but the interrogation was more severe than before. Uncle Chu who had been away for the night also rushed back, and he quietly told Xu Junze that the five children had been found Where is it? Ask Xu Junze what to do next.

The conversation between Uncle Chu and Xu Junze was not hidden from Lin Shuran, she had heard it too, she had long heard that Duan Mastiff, the emperor of Xia Kingdom, was cruel and heartless, and the common people complained about him, how many loyal ministers and good generals died tragically at his hands, these five If a child falls into the hands of officers and soldiers, the end will be miserable.

Lin Shuran also guessed Xu Junze's decision, he planned to save the five children, but there were officers and soldiers at the gate of the city to check closely, it was not that easy to take people out of the city.

"Uncle Chu, how old are those five children?" Lin Shuran asked Uncle Chu.

Uncle Chu told her that the three boys were ten years old, eight years old and six years old, and the two girls were slightly older, who looked about twelve or thirteen years old. Now the five children are hiding in a ruined temple in the city Here, he had people protecting them.

Lin Shuran thought for a while and said, "If I dress up those two girls as little maids by my side, and let Lingqin and Feiyue hide in the dark, can I take them out of the city safely? As for the three How about a boy, go out of town dressed as a little beggar?"

Uncle Chu and Xu Junze looked at each other, both of them felt that Lin Shuran's method was feasible, but Uncle Chu told Lin Shuran that children were the focus of investigation at the gate of the city, and it might not be easy to get out even if they pretended to be beggars.

"Then hide them in our truck and take them out?" Lin Shuran suggested again.

This method is worthy of a bold attempt, and Xu Junze didn't want to waste too much time in Quyang, so he immediately asked Uncle Chu to follow Lin Shuran's instructions. Soon after they came out of the inn, they used the excuse of buying some special products in Quyang to go there Near the ruined temple, the two young ladies of the Xiao family also became a pair of inconspicuous maidservant sisters under Honggu's attire.

The three young masters of the Xiao family were arranged by Uncle Chu into the accompanying carriage, and the group of people walked slowly towards the exit of the city gate.

Sitting in the carriage, the two young ladies of the Xiao family looked cautious and uneasy, and at the same time looked alert. Although the nanny who changed their clothes just now said that their master was an old friend of her grandfather, both of them were very concerned. They were skeptical, especially after getting into the carriage, they found that the hostess of the house had covered all her face with a light veil, so they couldn't see her clearly at all. They just noticed that she might not be in good health, almost half lying on the bed. In the carriage.

Lin Shuran's ears have become very sensitive since her eyesight became blurred, and she can always be keenly aware of the emotions of others. She seems to understand why Zhao Mu, the young prince of Yaowang Mansion, can accurately grasp people's hearts because he is born invisible.

"Don't be afraid or worry. We just want to help you. When you leave the city, you can go wherever you want!" Lin Shuran said softly to the two girls sitting on her left and right.

"Thank you very much for your willingness to save our siblings. Are you really my grandfather's old friends?" Xiao Yanyan, the former daughter-in-law of Duke Qi's mansion, slightly raised her head and looked at Lin Shuran, as if she wanted to see Lin Shuran clearly through the veil. true face.
