Raiders of peasant girls

Chapter 404 The feeling that the war is coming

"In that case, we are going to leave the palace now."

I have to leave the palace quickly, it is more convenient to do what I have to do outside the palace.

"By the way, where is the prince?"

"Princess, the prince told you to go back to the mansion first, and he will go back later."

Hearing this, Jing Yao was silent for a moment, this person is addicted to living in the uncle's mansion, it means that he has no plans to return to the palace.

Because people from almost all the prefectures stayed in the palace for one night, and when they heard that they could go back to their prefectures the next day, they all hurried back.

They met many people at the gate of the palace, but because of what happened last night, Jing Yao keenly noticed that many people were downcast or sighing.

Even the Liu family and the Mei family were not as excited as expected, Jingyao thought secretly, it seems that Jiang is still old and hot, the expressions of these two old men can't tell anything strange at this time, the city is too deep, of course, Jingyao can't help but Some worried about whether the other party would do something about what happened last night.

"Third sister, aren't you scared?" Uncle Xiling came out when he knew the news earlier, and waited at the gate of the palace ahead of time because he didn't see Jingyao.

"Father, are you kidding me? How can this kind of thing scare me?"

Uncle Xiling was taken aback, that's right, his daughter could go to heaven if she had the guts.

"Go, let's go home first."

"Um"

Half an hour later, two carriages drove into the compound of Xilingbo Mansion one after another.

It's just that Jingyao just got off the carriage when she heard a coquettish call, "Uncle, Uncle, you are back, what happened, why did you come back this morning, I was scared to death."

Aunt Jiang was screaming, and she rushed up from a distance, with Wang Xia'er following behind her.Looking at Jingyao's eyes, there was a flash of jealousy.

Jing Yao pouted, hating her?Are you eligible?

"Aunt Jiang, what are you fussing about this early in the morning? If you don't know, you might think something happened to our uncle's house?"

Aunt Jiang's face froze, and she said in embarrassment, "Servant, servant is also worried about Uncle, after all, Uncle has never slept outside in the capital."

"That's right, it seems that Aunt Jiang really only has my father in her eyes. As a girl, I am really happy for my father. But is Aunt Jiang too picky about other people's dishes? This princess is with my father The ones who came back have been standing here for so long, and have neither heard a question from my aunt, nor heard a word from sister Xia'er. It seems that sister Xia'er and Aunt Jiang have never regarded the princess as someone from the uncle's house. Since this is the case, the Princess of the county will not worry about her face, and from now on, let's go back to the bridge and return to the road."

Jingyao's words made Aunt Jiang and Wang Xia'er blush a little, but they didn't understand why.They didn't understand why the Princess would directly draw boundaries with them today.

But this may not be a good thing for them.

"What the princess said is that the princess has a high position, we can't afford to curry favor with her. If so, is it a bit embarrassing for the princess to control Xia'er and I's freedom?"

Jingyao laughed when she heard the words, took a cool look at Aunt Jiang, and said, "Well, what you said makes sense, but this county is in charge of the entire Xilingbo Mansion, if Aunt Jiang is not from our uncle's mansion , I will naturally not mind my own business. But because Aunt Jiang is so homesick, the princess is in a good mood today and allows you to leave the house for a day, oh, it doesn’t matter if you want to stay outside for two more days.”

After saying that, she left, leaving Aunt Jiang and Wang Xia'er looking at each other in disbelief.

Seeing their expressions, Xilingbo shook his head, bypassing the mother and daughter and going straight to the study.

"Xia'er is leaving, go back and pack your things, let's go back to Jiang's residence for two days before coming back."

"Well, Auntie, I'll go back and pack my things now, and bring some barley tea from our house, my cousin will definitely like it."

"Xia'er is interested, your cousin must be happy."

"It's just that there is too little barley tea. Otherwise, I can bring some to all the sisters in my uncle's house. Auntie, do you think it will be okay if I go to the princess to order some?"

Aunt Jiang shook her head, "Xia'er, forget it, you don't know who she is, you don't have to make her laugh, we don't want her things."

"Well, I listened to my aunt, let's go to uncle's house quickly, we haven't gone for a long time."

After saying that, the mother and daughter took each other back to the yard to pack up their things, and within a quarter of an hour they took a carriage to Jiang's Mansion.

When she arrived at Jiang's Mansion, Aunt Jiang was completely dumbfounded, and she finally understood why Princess Pingnan let her leave the mansion today.

In one night, the Fifth Prince died, and Concubine Lan went crazy, which meant that the Shen family's bargaining chip was gone, and it could also be said that the Shen family's pillar backer was gone.Aunt Jiang finally deeply realized that if the Shen family collapsed, the Jiang family who had always been attached to the Shen family would definitely be implicated. Even if the Jiang family was not implicated, they would lose their status completely.And the Jiang family lost their status in the court, so she and Xia'er had nothing to rely on.

Aunt Jiang muttered to herself, "No wonder, no wonder she is so talkative today, that's why." But the skinny camel is bigger than the horse, maybe the Shen family has other ways to go, yes, the Shen family must have other ways, The Shen family will not fall, and neither will the Jiang family.

What Aunt Jiang couldn't think of was that this time it wasn't that the Shen family had a way to go, but that everyone didn't allow him to have a way to go.So Aunt Jiang never expected that the Shen family of the aristocratic family would be ruined in just a few days.

"Master, what are your orders for your subordinates?"

It was still the same yard she had visited last time. Some of the people sent by the bandit leader from the Lingnan Base were in this yard, while the other part were hiding in Anxi Town not far from the capital.

"Tonight, you lead people to deliver some of these things to the Mei family, and some to the Liu family. In addition, send some people to keep an eye on the Shen family. And transfer all the people from our Anxi town over, Separately monitor the people in the palace embassy and the officials of the third rank and above in the capital."

"Yes, this subordinate will arrange it."

"Okay, be sure to send those things to the hands of the two of them."

"Yes."

After Jingyao explained what she was going to do, she didn't stay here any longer, and hurried back home.Xiaoyue told her that Helian Fenghua came back once, and when she was not there, she left the mansion again. She didn't say when she would come back, but told her to stay in the mansion for a few days and not to go out.

She was silent for a long time after hearing the words, and she didn't know why she always had the feeling that a big battle was coming.

That kind of panic emotion should not have appeared on her body. What kind of scenes had she never seen as a killer?But she didn't know why her heart was beating fast all day, and she always felt that things would not be so simple.

Another day later, Helian Fenghua still did not return to the Xilingbo Mansion, nor did he send her any news.

But at midnight, Helian Fenghua suddenly appeared in her room, and she had a hunch that something happened.
