Chapter 322 Status Quo
In the end, the boy left with Shen Yunlan.

Before leaving, Shen Yunlan asked the old man to choose a name for the young man. It's not easy to call him a young man all the time, right?

She never asked the old man's surname, she thought that if the old man could use his own surname to name the young man, it would be a souvenir for both the young man and her.

But the old man didn't leave a surname for the young man, he just chose a name according to what Shen Yunlan said.

Because it was a rainy day when they were leaving, and the young man grew up in a valley and forest, he took the word Lin.

Shen Yunlan tried to ask him for a surname, but the old man just shook his head with a smile and sent them out of the valley.

Pei Mingjing's people never gave up looking for Shen Yunlan, and they almost trampled all over the cliff.

The valley where the old man is located is actually not far from the cliff, but there are barriers around it, and outsiders cannot walk in.

Shen Yunlan led the young man out of the valley, and was quickly found. Among them were the people who escorted her out of Shangdu, and they were very happy after seeing her.

"Girl, who is this young master?" Seeing the teenagers beside Shen Yunlan, one of them asked.

"He was the one who saved me. There was an old man who didn't want to come out, so he just let me take him away."

Shen Yunlan explained, she turned her head to look at the boy, to be honest, she didn't know how old the boy was, whether he was older or younger than herself.

The old man only gave him a first name, not a surname, so Shen Yunlan discussed with him, should he choose a word as his surname?

The young man thought for a while and wrote a word on the ground. Shen Yunlan looked down and was speechless.

Perhaps it was to save trouble, or for some other reason, the young man wrote a wooden character. This character alone is fine, but when combined with his character...Mu Lin, it's really awkward.

She looked at the boy, who looked expectant, and seemed to think it was very good, Shen Yunlan simply let him go, anyway, the name was just a title.

At this time, Shen Yunlan and Mu Lin were resting in a Zhuangzi.

"What's the situation outside now?" She was in the valley, counting her fingers every day, ten days and a half months would be fine, but after a long time, she was getting a little confused.

"My lord, he... turned around, and now he has taken down several cities one after another." Hearing Shen Yunlan's question, the guard replied to her.

He looked at Shen Yunlan nervously, worried that she would react differently, after all, it was a rebellion.

"In what name?" Unexpectedly, such a question came.

"Seizing his wife and persecution..." Shen Yunlan was Pei Mingjing's fiancée. The officials wanted to occupy her, causing her to fall off a cliff, leaving her life and death uncertain, and later sending people to assassinate him. These two things could be used as excuses.

Before Shen Yunlan fell off the cliff, when she was being chased, she had thought that if she had a little accident and hid it for a while, it would be a good reason to say that she was persecuted by the government.

Unexpectedly, the officials can do more insane things. Compared with occupying the wives of the courtiers, the reason of persecuting Zhongliang is obviously better, and the combination of the two reasons is also good.

"Hmm... What is the public's attitude towards the rebellion?" This is what Shen Yunlan is most worried about. If there is a war, there will be casualties, and the people are innocent.

"Young master restrains his subordinates and does not allow innocent people to be killed. In addition, it has been raining since the beginning of the young master's battle. There are folk rumors that the young master is the real son, so they are very supportive."

"The following cities were all opened by the people to welcome them. However, there are many difficulties in the one that is going to be captured now. The general of the city even used the people to threaten the young master."

The guards did not hide anything about the situation outside. After hearing what he said, Shen Yunlan nodded. She believed that Pei Mingjing would have something to do.

"Do you know how my elder sister is?" She had been missing for a long time, thinking about her family's situation very much.

"Don't worry, girl, the fifth girl is safe under the protection of King Tai. As for your other family members, they are all fine, but I'm afraid you have to hide the fact that you are still alive."

It's not because of Pei Mingjing, but because he doesn't want Shangdu to know, otherwise, he might attack the Shen family.

This will affect the Cui family and even the people in Anyang Houfu.

After the guard finished speaking, Shen Yunlan nodded again. She understood the pros and cons, and was about to speak again when someone pulled her sleeves. She turned her head and looked at Mu Lin.

Mu Lin gestured, and told her what he had calculated just now, Shen Yunlan watched carefully, and waited for him to finish speaking before conveying his meaning.

What Mu Lin meant was that although asking her to find Pei Mingjing would not be of much help, because of the astrology, it would increase Pei Mingjing's chances of winning and solve the current problem as soon as possible.

It can be said that Shen Yunlan is Pei Mingjing's noble person, if she appears by his side, she will get twice the result with half the effort.

"Then we will leave tomorrow," the guard immediately responded, and Shen Yunlan responded.

Although it cannot be said that she is still alive to the outside world, it is still possible to send someone to send a letter in private to reassure the family.

The next day, when Shen Yunlan and others left Zhuangzi, other people separated from her team, one went to Shangdu, and the other went to Xiao Jin's fiefdom.

Shen Yunjin knew about Shen Yunlan, so Xiao Jin also sent someone to find Shen Yunlan's whereabouts.

Although Shen Yunlan is currently sending someone to deliver the news, it will take some time before it can be delivered to Shen Yunjin.

It was Cui Shi who received the news first, she burst into tears immediately, and then hid the news in her heart as Shen Yunlan said.

She brought Shen Yuncheng to live in Cui's house, and this happened suddenly, which shocked the Cui family. When she stopped crying and only said that she missed her daughter, the Cui family breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Shi proposed to find a way to send her to see Shen Yunjin in the Thai king's fiefdom, but she refused, she knew that life there is not easy right now.

The government sent someone to deliver an order to let Shen Yunjin enter the palace, they already knew about it.

Right now, it's not just the Cui family and the Anyang Houfu, the government has sent people to keep an eye on these aristocratic families in Shangdu.

Those who escaped before, some were chased back, and some escaped by chance. Those who failed to leave could only stay in Shangdu, terrified all day long.

The queen went to see the official's family again and persuaded him, but until now, it was useless for her to say more.

According to her own idea, she dismissed some concubines in the palace and let them leave the palace so that they could go home and reunite with their families. The concubines are very grateful.

But this annoyed the officials, he ordered people to lock up the queen.

And those concubines who wanted to leave, he ordered to kill them one by one.

With the help of the palace people, the queen escaped, and after a lot of effort, she finally came to the official family. She asked the official family to forgive the concubines and let them go out of the palace.

At first, the officials did not agree, and the queen forced her to die, so he reluctantly nodded.

Fortunately, there was still time. The concubines who thought they were going to die finally left the palace. The queen stood on the city wall, watching the carriage driving them go away, with a hint of relief on her face.

Turning around, she looked at the official family...

 Hmm...it feels like it's over. .
