The door of an ordinary carriage on the roadside suddenly opened.

The female driver immediately jumped out of the carriage, lowered her head and stretched out her hand.

A hand slowly reached out and rested firmly on the back of the female driver's hand.

At first glance, it was obvious that the hand belonged to a woman, but it was different from the delicate and soft hands of ordinary women. The joints were distinct, slender and dry, the palm was extra wide, and thick calluses could be seen on the knuckles.

These hands are not pretty, but they are very powerful.

A tall woman wearing a hat and riding clothes got out of the car. With the help of the female driver, she dismounted on the wooden ladder.

Just standing in front of the carriage, she exuded a domineering majesty that made people dare not look directly at her. Through the long hanging power fence, her face could not be seen clearly, but her voice sounded like it was thirty-five or six.

Mu Ling looked over in surprise, "Your Highness?" She didn't expect the eldest princess to come in person.

With the word "Your Highness," the woman's identity became instantly clear.

The melon-eating people who were still standing around the carriage were immediately frightened and knelt down. In the blink of an eye, there was a circle of people hiding near the carriage.

Even the people from Baihe and Huangcheng Division bent down in fear.

The old man who knew about it saw a few people standing around him and didn't care about their lives. He quickly pulled a few people and said, "Kneel down quickly, that is Her Royal Highness the eldest princess!"

Qin Yao and Liu Ji, who were being dragged by their clothes, looked at each other and squatted down with the children in tacit agreement. Anyway, they were far away and the princess, who was kneeling or not, should not be able to see them.

Just peeping at the majestic and domineering eldest princess from a distance, Liu Ji was greatly disappointed.

He thought that all princesses were elegant and beautiful, but why did the eldest princess look so simple and concise, and her aura looked a bit like that of an evil woman in her family?
Just thinking about this made Liu Ji tremble and began to sympathize with the prince-in-law whom he had never met before.

Tsk, tsk, tsk, I don’t know what kind of life that person lived.

The eldest princess stood in front of the carriage and said to Mu Ling in an incomprehensible voice: "Come here."

Bai He didn't dare to cross Mu Ling again, so he had to ask his men to let go of her.

Mu Ling glanced at Bai He and Liu Qian fiercely, then walked quickly to the eldest princess and knelt down on one knee to apologize.

"My subordinate's failure in doing things has caused Your Highness to come forward in person. Please punish me!"

The power fence worn by the eldest princess was tilted slightly, as if she glanced at her. Through the power fence screen, she felt the gaze of the owner of those eyes. Mu Ling's throat tightened, and she swallowed nervously. It hangs even lower.

It seemed like a long time passed, but it seemed like it was only a short moment. Mi Li, who was coming from the side, turned back, and Mu Ling breathed a sigh of relief.

"My subordinates are ignorant and have caused trouble for you all." The eldest princess said in a gentle tone, apologetically to Liu Qian and Bai He.

The two of them lowered their waists in fear, Liu Qian said hurriedly that he didn't dare.

A laugh came from under the fence, and he looked at Bai He, "How is the prince doing lately? Has the assassin who wanted to assassinate the prince been caught?"

Bai He shook his head, "On behalf of the Crown Prince, I would like to thank His Highness the Princess for your concern. Your Highness the Crown Prince has been doing well recently, and the assassin has been caught."

She sounded slightly surprised, "Really? Yesterday, I heard that Master He personally led people to chase him outside the Nanlou Pass and captured him so quickly?"

Bai He nodded, opened his eyes and lied: "Yes, he has been captured."

"Then I'm relieved. The prince is so lucky to have you by his side." She laughed again, sounding like the eldest sister was caring about her younger brother and felt relieved knowing that he was safe.

"Then let's go, you two adults, please continue." The eldest princess nodded to Bai He and Liu Qianqing, turned around and got into the ordinary carriage.

Mu Ling led his horse and followed the carriage, and the three of them quickly walked away. It seemed that the eldest princess was just passing by and was not involved in the Zhu family's ransacking.

However, in fact, a full quarter of an hour had passed since she appeared and chatted slowly. Coupled with the time created by Mu Ling earlier, it was enough time for the female members of the Zhu family to pack up and prepare.

And after such an experience, the people in the Imperial City Department did not dare to go too far and did not search for the jewelry carried by the Zhu family's female relatives.

But everything in the Zhu Mansion was confiscated, not even the stools were spared. In less than half an hour, the originally wealthy and luxurious Zhu Mansion turned into an empty room.

Liu Ji watched helplessly, not knowing what to think of, and he was so frightened.

Qin Yao looked at him strangely, "What are you doing?"

The big shots had left, and the common people stood up again. After watching the excitement, they dispersed to do what they were supposed to do.

Liu Ji led Siniang to a less crowded area on the street, passed by the empty Zhu Mansion gate, took another look inside, and said with emotion: "How can it be wasted in the blink of an eye?"

He turned around to look for Qin Yao and saw her standing behind him. He felt relieved and muttered in a low voice:
"Madam, do you think that if we offend the powerful people in the capital, will we also end up with our homes confiscated and exiled?"

Qin Yao shook her head seriously, "No."

Liu Ji was overjoyed, "Really?"

Qin Yao smiled with a smile on her lips, looked at him sympathetically, and said word by word: "Of course, because we will only end up being beheaded or killing the nine tribes."

The corners of Liu Jigang's grinned mouth froze and fell down a little bit, like a mourning concubine, with his head hanging down and his eyebrows drooping, never wanting to say a word to her again!

"But if I had offended Her Royal Highness, I wouldn't have ended up like this, right?" Yin Le suddenly looked at Awang and asked in a low voice.

He is a native of the capital, so he must know about things in the capital.

Awang looked at her strangely, "Why do you say that?"

Yin Le grabbed her sleeves and shook her head. She couldn't tell. Just seeing that the eldest princess actually came forward in person when Zhu's house was raided just now, I felt that she wouldn't be so violent.

Awang reminded her: "Have you forgotten Mr. Gongliang's legs?"

Yin Le was startled, "What does this have to do with Mr. Gongliang's legs?"

She still didn't know why Gong Liangliao's legs were missing. Awang glanced at Qin Yao and saw that she had no objection, so he whispered a few words in Yin Le's ear.

Yin Le was immediately shocked, and his hair stood on end, "Mr. Gongliang's legs, his legs are actually..."

The words he didn't say were slapped back by Awang.

Realizing that he almost made a mistake, Yin Le immediately gritted his teeth, took two quick steps to approach Qin Yao, and grabbed her wrist - the capital is so scary, Master, help me!

Qin Yao glared at Awang angrily, which frightened him.

Awang looked innocent. Didn't his wife ask him to say it?
Qin Yao sighed softly and patted the back of his apprentice's trembling hand, "Don't worry, as long as you don't seek death, you won't die. We are all honest and good citizens."

Yin Le said more seriously, "Yes, we are good people." As if saying this, there is no need to be afraid.

Qin Yao saw it funny and dragged the lost Liu Ji back from the middle of the road, and the family continued to walk towards Nanshi.

But they didn't notice that in the alley, next to the ordinary carriage that should have gone away, a pair of eyes spotted them and were very shocked. (End of chapter)
