The ancestor of the last days exploded after being reborn!

Chapter 8 Emergencies
Xia Jing knew that her behavior had changed, and the first thing she noticed must be the two personal servants.

But she didn't want to keep acting as the original owner in order to prevent them from noticing. In the coming troubled times, a woman pampered like the original owner in the back house of a wealthy family would not be able to survive.

At present, she can only let the people around her feel her changes slowly.

As for whether they will be suspicious, survival in troubled times is extremely difficult, who would care about her change?

Hongmei put the dinner on the table, then stepped back nervously.

Xia Jing could see her nervousness, as could the two steamed buns, a cup of chicken soup and a plate of pickles on the table.

Xia Jing sat down, and she stirred the chicken soup in the stew pot: "These are the only foods in the inn?"

She also wanted to get a little more storage space.

Hongmei lowered her head and explained the current situation of the inn. Due to the drought, the inn had long been closed. They fled to the county seat yesterday afternoon and forcibly confiscated the inn as a temporary resting place. The ingredients in the kitchen were delivered by the county magistrate himself. of.

"The drought is severe now, Wangfei, please overcome it, and it will be fine when we return to the capital."

Xia Jing nodded, didn't say any more, and asked Hongmei to go down to help her prepare a dagger and some wound medicine.

Hongmei raised her head in surprise: "Princess, you accept."

"I have my own use, you hurry up and prepare."

Hongmei responded, and Xia Jing stopped her when she was about to leave the house: "Let the kitchen make all the remaining ingredients, try to make them as durable as possible, and then distribute them to everyone, so that they can carry them with them."

If one wants to survive in troubled times, the existing guards of the Palace are the best capital.The same habit developed in the last days, that is, there is nothing wrong with being prepared at all times.

It's called being prepared!

Hongmei turned around and said, "It's only twenty miles away from the capital, and it only takes an hour for us to take a carriage. Princess, are you sure you want the kitchen staff to make dry food?"

This is exactly where Xia Jing was puzzled: "Since there is only a distance of more than [-] miles, why don't the boss and the others insist on going back to the capital directly for an hour?"

Hearing this, Hongmei shared what she heard from the guards: "Recently, the capital city has been heavily guarded. The four city gates, the north gate and the west gate, have been closed all day since the day before yesterday, while the south gate and east gate have been closed all day long. The gate can pass four hours a day, and the city gate will be closed after Shen time in the afternoon, and will not be opened by anyone who comes."

She also heard that more and more families in the city chose to leave the city early to escape after receiving the news.The gates of the city are only open for four hours every day, and the convoys lining up in the city to leave the city can't see the end from morning till night.

After hearing the explanation, Xia Jing couldn't help raising her eyebrows: "Well, I see, you should prepare as I just said."

Hongmei followed Xia Jing's instructions to prepare wound medicine and a dagger, and asked Baimei to go to the kitchen and supervise the people in the kitchen to make dry food.

Of course, everyone lived in an inn, and the actions of the two maids beside the princess could not be hidden from the other masters.

The masters of the palace had the same opinion this time, and no one took it seriously. It was only when Xia Jing experienced a catastrophe of life and death that she became more timid. They could afford to waste the little food in the inn, so they just let her go. deal with it.

After Xia Jing finished her dinner, Hongmei sent over the dagger and the wound medicine, and after she cleared away the dishes, she put these two items into the space.

In the middle of the night, the entire county fell into a deep sleep, whether it was the refugees on the street or the people sleeping in the house.

In the inn that King Qian's Mansion had forcibly confiscated, except for a few guards on duty, everyone else was also sleeping soundly.

Suddenly a night falcon screamed from outside the inn, and Xia Jing sat up from her sleep.

With her mental power released, no abnormalities were seen around the inn, but her eyelids twitched a few times.

She got up quickly and got dressed. Fortunately, the big maid brought a set of regular clothes before going to bed, so that she no longer had to wear the complicated funeral clothes, otherwise it would affect her actions too much.

The big maid Baimei who was on duty at the door heard the movement in the house, she stood at the door softly and called out: "Princess?"

Xia Jing smoothed her hair with five fingers, quickly put it in a bun behind her head and pinned it with a hairpin.Then open the door: "Go and wake up everyone else!"

Baimei yawned: "Princess, did something happen?"

"Just go if you're told, don't ask too many questions!"

Xia Jing didn't deliberately lower her volume. As soon as she finished speaking, she attracted guards who were standing at the stairway on duty at night.

"Princess, what happened?"

Xia Jing glanced at Baimei, and for some reason, Baimei felt a little cold behind her back, so she shrank her neck and obediently retreated to knock on other doors on the second floor.

When two guards approached, Xia Jing said: "Wake up the others, your guards are on alert immediately, there is something going on outside."

Hearing this, the two guards were confused and looked at each other. One of them stepped forward and bowed: "There are also a few brothers on duty outside tonight, and they didn't find anything wrong. How did the princess know there was something wrong outside?"

Could it be that he had hysteria!It's just that the guards didn't dare to say this, they could only slander in their hearts.

At the same time, the door of the room next door opened, and Li Chengyi leaned on the door frame and yawned, "Is this a nightmare for my concubine? Don't be afraid, we are all in the inn, so don't be afraid if the thief comes."

It's just that before his words fell, there were several shrill screams from a distance, which scared Li Chengyi to the point of incontinence.

At this moment, without Xia Jing's order, Li Chengyi supported the door frame with one hand, covered his chest with the other, and said to the guard, "What's going on outside? You two hurry up to see what's going on outside?"

But before the guards came downstairs, screams came from the street outside, and other rooms in the inn were quickly opened.

"What happened?" The uncle of the Wangfu went out with his clothes on, and asked the guard on the first floor of the inn while standing in the corridor.

Li Chengmu ran out wearing obscene clothes: "Mother Concubine, why are you up? What's going on outside?"

Seeing that he was about to run towards her, Xia Jing's face darkened instantly: "Hurry up and put on your clothes and meet up on the first floor, you must be fast!"

The master and servants in the inn all woke up with a start, and became chaotic in an instant. Xia Jing pushed away the dazed and silly son who stood in front of her, and went downstairs first.

When she got downstairs, before everyone else came down, Xia Jing found the kitchen of the inn, put the iron pot on the stove, the cupboard next to it, and the steamer on the table into the space, turned around and went out, and put them in the kitchen. Several pots and pans in the corner were brought into the space.

Back in the lobby on the first floor of the inn, Li Chengmu got dressed and rushed down from the second floor, Xia Jing grabbed him and walked out the door without saying a word.

Seeing this, the two servant girls, Red Plum and White Plum, quickly followed.

Seeing that the masters and housekeepers in the mansion were all present, Li Chengshang, the uncle of the palace, waved for everyone to follow.And he followed Xia Jing's footsteps and left the inn first.

The north of the county seat was full of flames, reflecting the sky orange.

Li Chengmu looked towards the north in fear: "Mother, is this Beidi army attacking?"

"Probably not!" The Beidi army is the wolves of the prairie, and their attacking movement is not so gentle, the thunder is loud and the rain is little.

Xia Jing gave him a push: "Hurry up and get on the horse, show the momentum you took me to ride yesterday."

If she hadn't been born in the last days and had never learned how to ride a horse, why would he take her with her.
