After the house of Dongli Winery was originally bought, the underground wine cellar was specially rebuilt and reinforced to prevent moisture. The iron door was also reinforced to prevent theft. Although it is not indestructible, it is much safer than the current house.

The winery is large enough to accommodate people like them.

Because Ning Ruyan had saved enough food before, there was no problem even if she stayed in the winery for two months.

In the evening of the day I hid in, there were shouts of murder outside.

"Miss." Ning Xing ran over quietly, "The situation outside does not look like a simple riot by victims."

"Didn't Xin Yi and Sang Ye go out to inquire about the situation? Your skills are not as good as hers, so just come back first. We will make a decision after she comes back to inquire about the situation."

Ning Xing nodded and summoned several of his nursing staff back.

After a while, Xin Yi and Sang Ye came back one after another.

"What's going on?" Ning Ruyan asked anxiously.

"There were victims outside who froze to death, including a few children. Everyone was furious. I went to check those cotton-padded clothes. There were catkins inside, not cotton at all. It is normal for people to freeze to death after so many days." Okay, "However, among the rioting crowd, it seems that there are more than just disaster victims, there are people who are instigating this incident."

"I went for a walk around the palace." Sang Ye also told Ning Ruyan what he had learned, "It was the soldiers from Dong Daying who were guarding the palace, under the guise of escorting them. Even the third prince wanted to Even if I want to enter the palace to see the emperor, I will be turned back."

Ning Ruyan frowned: "Dong Daying? Is this a rebellion?"

Everyone shook their heads, unsure.

"Where is Habayashi Wei?"

"I didn't see the Yulin Guards." Sang Ye shook his head, "There are Yulin Guards standing guard at the entrance of the palace."

Ning Ruyan couldn't help but get up and pace back and forth in the room. Since she lived an extra life and benefited from the Jiang family's prosperity in the previous life, she still knew about some situations.

There are four garrisons around the capital: southeast, northwest and northwest. They were established by the ancestor emperor who founded the country. They originally stationed 50,000 soldiers each, mainly to guard the capital. However, the number of wars has decreased in recent years, and there are basically no battles in which the enemy will be defeated. Those who entered the palace and came to the capital, so the imperial court slowly reduced the garrison of the four major battalions. Now it has even reduced two major battalions. Now only the West Camp and the Beida Camp are left, and there are only 30,000 garrison troops. .

The commander-in-chief of the Beida camp is Yong'an Hou Xia Chengkun, the grandfather of Princess Qicai. Although this person is loyal to the emperor on the surface, in fact, he has already taken refuge with the eldest prince Xia Chunlin in private. This is why Jiang Bonian took refuge with the eldest prince after , was also arranged to enter the Peking University Camp.

"No, the eldest prince wants to rebel." Ning Ruyan's face suddenly turned ugly, "Ning Xing, please quickly take people to move out all the spirits and white wine from the wine cellar, and then divide them into small jars."

"Ah?" Ning Xing was stunned.

"No time to explain, hurry up."

Ning Xing hurriedly took people over to move the wine. Although the others didn't know the reason why Ning Ruyan did this, they all started to work.

"Baizhi, prepare as much medicine as possible, Pinellia ternata, prepare more incense..." Ning Ruyan thought as she continued to order, "Also, don't light lamps from now on, but everyone prepare kerosene... …”

Because there were no lights, everyone was talking about the busy work.

Alang has been hiding in the wine cellar with his wet nurse. She goes over to check on him from time to time, for fear that he will cry, but the little guy seems to know that there is something going on outside, so he is always quiet, even if he is hungry or pees. , and just hummed a few times.

"Alang, you are really my mother's sweetheart." Ning Ruyan kissed her son's little face.

Although the little guy was still asleep, he knew that it was his mother who was kissing him, so he closed his eyes and grinned. Ning Ruyan felt that her heart was about to melt. Even for her son, she must protect her home.

As for what the greatest value of rebirth is, she might have thought it was revenge before, but now she doesn't think so. She feels that the greatest significance of her rebirth is giving birth to a son.

Revenge can make people resentful and uncomfortable, and even change them beyond recognition, but love makes her feel that her life is complete.

The night soon became thicker, and in the night that should have been completely silent, there were faint sounds of killing.

The winery is located on the main street, but the door is closed at this time, and the plaques have been taken down. If you have never come to buy wine, you will not think that this is a winery.

Soon, the shouts of death gradually came closer, and you could even see the occasional fire rising.

Ning Ruyan's palms were a little sweaty, so she asked everyone to pile all the prepared small jars of wine under the corner, and then connected three or five jars with hemp rope in this way, and also asked everyone to prepare fire folds.

"If someone comes to break down the door later, light the wine jar and throw it over." Ning Ruyan breathed out, "Don't let anyone rush in."

Ning Xing and others nodded hurriedly.

"As long as there are not thousands of troops, I think I can stop them by myself." Xin Yi leaned against the wall, holding the sword in both hands.

"This is a riot, not a competition. A person's physical strength is always limited." Ning Ruyan shook his head, "You can't protect so many people by yourself, Xin Yi, once... I said if you can't stand it, you must We must protect Alang."

If the eldest prince rebelled and forced the palace, he would not massacre the people, but she was worried that the mob would take advantage of the situation and rob him.

Xin Yi didn't say anything more, but jumped up onto the roof, hiding his body in the shadow of the roof, blending into the night.

Soon, the shouts of killing got closer, and you could even hear that someone's house nearby was broken into, and you could hear the screams of men and the cries of women.

Ning Ruyan's palms were sweating. She was right. She was indeed taking advantage of the situation.

Soon, someone came and broke down the door of the winery, and there were even people talking outside.

"This is Dongli Winery, right? Why is the plaque gone?"

"This is the property of the Ning family. The Ning family is a wealthy family. I heard that when Miss Ning married here, the dowry was worth two thousand dollars."

"Yes, this winery has made a lot of profits, and it is now prosperous."

"Hurry and call the brothers to come together."

……

However, just when Ning Ruyan wanted to tell everyone to be on guard, the sounds outside suddenly stopped, and Xin Yi dealt with them directly.

"The body doesn't need to be disposed of?" Ning Ruyan glanced at Xin Yi.

"It's taken care of." Xin Yi jumped onto the roof again.

Ning Ruyan opened the door and took a look. Sure enough, there was no body outside. She couldn't help but breathed out. She was about to close the door, but the door diagonally opposite opened. (End of chapter)
