Chen Tiantian and Chen Zhao finally left, Yingbao stopped crying, lay down and continued to sleep.

Chunniang looked down at her daughter's face, but she didn't shed a single tear.

"What happened earlier?" Chun Niang went to close the door and came back to ask her daughter.

Ying Bao: "As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw her standing by the bed. It was scary. Mother, that Chen Tiantian is probably crazy. You must be careful."

"Yeah." Chun Niang patted her daughter's head, lay down on the same bed with her, hugged her and patted her softly: "Mother is watching over you, go to bed quickly, you have to go on your way tomorrow."

Ying Bao nodded, hugged A Niang's arms in her arms, closed her eyes and fell asleep quickly.

Silent all night.

The next day, just before dawn, someone knocked on the door: "Miss Jiang, we are leaving!"

Chunniang agreed, and hurriedly got up to clean up.

Ying Bao and A Niang washed up casually, got on the carriage after eating something.

Before getting into the carriage, she glanced at the carriage behind, and saw Chen Tiantian, with a white cotton cloth wrapped around her forehead, was looking at her with deep eyes.

More than ten days later, the carriage finally arrived at the capital. After entering the east city gate, it came directly to Duke Wei's gate.

Ying Bao and A Niang got out of the car, looked up, and then followed Xiao Mo to enter through the side door.

Then they came to a courtyard with Li Langzhong's grandparents and Chen's sisters.

This time, Yingbao and Chunniang lived in one wing, the Chen sisters lived in another, and Li Langzhong and his second grandson lived in the opposite wing.

The servants also brought in their luggage, as well as the locked medicine chest.

"It is estimated that we will live here for a while." Ying Bao said to A Niang: "If I am not here, A Niang, please don't let the Chen sisters into our house."

"Mother knows." Chunniang packed her luggage and took out all the things that were going to be used soon.

Not long after, two thirteen or fourteen-year-old maidservants came in with water and bowed to Chun Niang: "Miss Wan'an, I will wait for you to wash."

Chun Niang hurriedly returned the gift: "Thank you, little lady, let me do it myself." As she spoke, she took the water basin, put it on the basin stand, and took the cloth towel brought forward by another maidservant, first washed her hands and face, and then continued to wash herself.

A maid said from the side: "My slave's name is Xiaoqing. From now on, if you have anything to do, you can just ask the slave."

The other also said: "My slave's name is Xiaodai."

Upon seeing this, Chunniang also reported her name: "The little lady's name is Xu Chunniang, and this is my daughter Jiang Yingbao. We will trouble the two little ladies from now on."

Xiaoqing smiled and said: "What are you talking about? Don't bother me. You are a distinguished guest in our mansion. Mr. Dalang has specially told you that we must serve you carefully."

Ying Bao blinked and asked, "Sister Xiaoqing, what's the name of your Da Lang?"

"My Dalangjun's surname is Xiao and his name is Chengde. He is the eldest son of the Duke."

"Oh." Ying Bao quickly searched the contents of the book in her mind, but she couldn't find the person.

This is a little strange.

After all, he is Empress Xiao's natal nephew, so how could there be no description.

Moreover, not only could she not find Xiao Chengde's description in that book, she could not even find Xiao Mo's, which was too abnormal.

After washing, the two maidservants went out with water, and brought breakfast after a while.

Two bowls of white rice porridge, four dishes of side dishes, and two baskets of small buns.

Under the watchful eyes of the two maidservants, Ying Bao and A Niang ate hastily, rinsed their mouths again, and then breathed a sigh of relief seeing them take away the dishes.

Chunniang is really not used to having someone standing by and watching while eating, and that feeling is hard to describe in words.

Ying Bao asked A Niang to stay in the room and not to wander around, and ran to the opposite room to find Li Langzhong and inquire about the patient's news.

In the main courtyard of the Duke's Mansion, two officials of the Qin Tianjian, led by their servants, walked into the study room and greeted Grand Master Xiao.

Grand Master Xiao asked the two to sit down, stroked their beards and said, "Today I invite you two to test a child's astrological fate."

The supervisor clasped his fists at Grand Master Xiao: "Grand Master can bring you here, let us have a look."

Grand Master Xiao nodded, turned around and told his grandson Xiao Mo who was standing behind him: "Go and bring the children and let them take a walk in the yard."

"Yes." Xiao Mo agreed, and walked out of the study to lead him.

Grand Master Xiao said to the two gray-haired officials of the Qin Tianjian: "There is a strange man beside my son who is good at divination. He calculated that there is a girl who can relieve Ziwei Xing's misfortune and make Daqian country prosperous. Therefore, I invite the two of you to come and let you take a good look to see if she is the one who relieved the misfortune on behalf of the king."

The supervisor and the vice-supervisor bowed their hands to the grand master: "I will definitely do my best."

After a while, Xiao Mo led the three female dolls into the yard, but did not enter the house, but let the three of them look at the flowers and plants in the yard.

The supervisor and the deputy supervisor looked at each other, frowned slightly, carefully looked at the three female dolls outside, and kept counting with their fingers.

One of the dolls was only about six or seven years old, and her appearance was unusual, but her eyebrows were slightly hostile, and she was a sign of early death.

The other two girls seemed to be about the same age, and their appearance was also not bad.

But with a thin and long face, the heaven is narrow, the lips are thin and wimpy, and the fortune is low, so he is definitely not the one who will solve the problem.

But the other one is just the opposite. Her heavenly court is long and plump, square and wide, and she is the lord of nobility, which is the appearance of wealth and honor.

Seeing that her lower court is flat and full, end and thick, the Lord is blessed with good fortune.

The person who relieved the disaster must be her.

The supervisor and the deputy supervisor discussed their opinions in a low voice, then bowed their hands to the grand master, and said: "The lower official has already calculated that the girl in Tsing Yi has good luck, brings blessings in her life, and has the appearance of wealth."

Grand Master Xiao nodded slightly, with joy on his face, he asked his cronies to go outside and tell his grandson that he could take the girls and leave.

Afterwards, he took out a piece of paper and handed it to the two fortune tellers, "This is the birth date of the girl in Tsing Yi. Take a look, is there any conflict or disadvantage with the generation of the king?"

The supervisor took over the horoscope of the birth date, and started to calculate head to head with the deputy supervisor.

In the end, it was concluded that this woman was quite suitable for the acting king, and the two complement each other and are indispensable.

"No wonder, no wonder." Grand Master Xiao was overjoyed, "No wonder Dai Wang has been ill for a long time, probably because of the lack of this woman by his side."

Sending off the two fortune tellers, Grand Master Xiao immediately sent some clothes and accessories to the guest house for the girl named Chen Tiantian to wear. He wanted to take her into the palace to meet his daughter Empress Xiao.

He also asked Xiao Mo to inform the country doctor to follow him to the imperial city to treat the king.

Yingbao was brought back for a turn, a bit inexplicable.

But she could feel that someone was peeking at them in the dark when they were in the big courtyard.

Not long after returning, servants and maidservants of Xiao's residence flocked to make up for Chen Tiantian next door.

Even Chen Zhao was surprised this time, thinking that someone in the Xiao residence had taken a fancy to the aunt and sister and wanted to take her as a concubine.

That's not right, no matter how good-looking Chen Tiantian was, she was only ten years old, and they were good citizens, so it didn't make sense that they would be sold off as soon as they came to Xiao's residence.

But who can tell.

My group is alone and weak, and I will not let others slaughter me here?
The more Chen Zhao thought about it, the more frightened he became. When everyone was not paying attention, he sneaked out of the house and ran to Chunniang's side.

"It's not good! This Xiao Mansion is a den of thieves who kidnap and sell good families. He, they actually want to sell my aunt. It must be our turn after that. Aunt Jiang, let's run away!"
