Chapter 91

When Yin Mingyu came out of Xuancheng again, he felt that the draft of the boat was shallow.

Although the Xie family had so many guards and servants, the food and expenses were all paid by the Xie family, and Xie Ce did not spend her money, but the Xie family wealth and her dowry private house were not at the same level.

Yin Mingyu did a good job before she left Beijing. Although she spent a lot of money to buy a house, the purpose was indeed to open source. But since she left Beijing, or more accurately, she entered Yangzhou, her property was being collected. The balance is lost.

She is indeed not short of food or drink, but the happiness and satisfaction of hoarding money can easily be replaced by nothing else.

When she was playing, Yin Mingyu still had fun, but when she was free, she would be sad for the spring and fall, and then she would fall asleep soon after counting the silver melon seeds.

Yin Mingyu did not deduct others, but only “deducted” herself and her sheep, so she walked for another three months, and when she finally entered Lingnan, the sheep had lost all fat.

When they got here, they changed into carriages, a convoy of hundreds of people, and the front and rear carriages pulled a distance of half a mile.

On the other hand, Lingnan and Beibian are completely different worlds. The mountains are connected to the mountains, and the lush greenery is everywhere. The leaves are bigger than other places, and the mosquitoes are bigger than other places.

The carriage did not open the window, it was damp, stuffy, and hot, and when the window was opened, flying insects would enter.

The adults are better, Xie Ceren has tender skin, and everyone pays attention to him at all times. The doctor accompanying him has studied several methods of deworming and used them together. Finally, there is no problem in taking care of people.

This is also thanks to the fact that they walked slowly and leisurely from the capital for more than half a year. Xie Ce is strong and adaptable to the outside world. Otherwise, no one can say whether they will not adapt to the soil and water.

At this time, it was the end of December. During the day in Lingnan, people could only wear single clothes, but at night it was cold and cold.

If she was in Beijing, Yin Mingyu would have to make a lot of clothes every season, but now she is on the road, and the old lady doesn’t pay much attention to it, so she doesn’t let the maids do it for her. I simply put a hairpin on. If the clothes were not of excellent material, it would be better for the maids to dress up carefully.

But like her, the maids didn’t dare to dress up. Yin Mingyu prided herself on having a somewhat free and unrestrained temperament, and was very encouraged to see the maids all beautiful.

Jin’er and Yin’er are nothing more than that, Ranliu is very cute even if she doesn’t dress up too much. She is waiting in front of her every day, and the irritability of the bumpy road has been reduced by a point.

Yin Mingyu and the others walked slowly in the first place, and they walked slowly and leisurely on unfamiliar roads. They only traveled during the day. Basically, after noon, they stopped to make repairs when they saw the village, and went back the next day.

In this way, they entered Lingnan and then went to the border of Nanyue Prefecture. They walked for another ten days before finally approaching the border of the state.

On the mountain in the distance, a black and thin monkey-like man pushed aside two banana leaves and looked at the flag on the first carriage.

Someone taught them to recognize the word “thank”, but after a long time, he didn’t dare to confirm it when he saw it suddenly.

When the carriage got closer, the wind blew the flag and the flag was fully unfolded. The skinny monkey man was overjoyed and quickly let go of the banana leaf, and burrowed into the forest like a monkey.

The Xie family caravan, the guards watched the surroundings vigilantly, only to see something flashing by the black gulongdong, communicating with each other—

“Is it a monkey?”

“I didn’t see it clearly.”

“Be careful, don’t let these beasts hurt the young lady and Xiao Lang.”

“Yes.”

The guards became more alert.

A dozen miles away—

A group of men with messy hair like straw, black and thin builds, with slightly sunken cheeks and eyes, each crouched behind a tree, and no one had the energy to speak.

Under their feet, around them, about the width of the front and back of their feet, they could no longer step on the turf, and the mud was bare, and the mud was firm.

They are a small clan among the many ethnic groups in Lingnan, the Yan clan. There are hundreds of people in the clan, old and young.

Patriarch Fan Shao promised a lot of benefits, and upon his assignment, more than 70 young men from the Yan Clan came out with great determination.

All determination and desire are almost worn out…

“Huh?” A thin man with a grass in his mouth saw the person running over from a distance and asked suspiciously, “Is that Yanxia? Why is he jumping like that?”

The rest of the people looked over. On the flat road, the black and thin monkey ran over like a gust of wind, and suddenly jumped up and danced again, looking really crazy.

A group of people stuck their heads out, trying to find out what happened to him?

And the black and thin monkey named “Yanxia” saw several heads sticking out from behind the trees, and waved his hands even more excitedly, running faster while waving.

“Brother Jun! Brother Jun!” He didn’t dare to shout, so he suppressed his voice and looked back, but everyone could feel the excitement.

Everyone thought of something, and their eyes gradually lighted up, staring at him closely, and when he ran to the front, they asked in a row—

“Did he come?”

“Is Mrs. Inspector here?”

“Speak quickly!”

“Rock Canyon!”

Yanxia gasped for breath while leaning on the trunk, but he wanted to speak, but he was short of breath and couldn’t speak.

The man who was called “Brother Jun” by the black and thin monkey just now came out and scolded everyone: “What’s the hurry! Let him breathe well.”

His full name is Yan Jun, and he is recognized as the next patriarch of the Yan clan.

The others were so convinced of him that they all kept their mouths shut.

Yan Jun turned to him again and urged impatiently: “Xie family is here? Say it now!”

Yanxia: “…”

He tried to calm down his breath, but when he opened his mouth, he choked up a little, “Come! Xie family is here!”

Yan Jun’s black face was overjoyed, and a fan-like slap slapped Yanxia’s shoulder, “Don’t be useless!”

“It can be regarded as coming…” Yan Jun shouted, “It’s all copycats!”

Everyone behind him responded, but he felt that the sound was not right, and when he looked back, there were several black faces weeping with joy.

Yan Jun: “…”

Someone explained: “It’s really not a human life for such a long time, Brother Jun, I can’t help it…”

There was the sound of wheels and horseshoes coming from the front, and the man hurriedly ordered everyone, holding his breath and waiting.

Finally, a few guards and a few horses appeared first in everyone’s field of vision. Not to mention the horses were smooth, the guards were all red-faced and imposing, and they looked extremely mighty.

Everyone hesitated, “Brother Jun, this…”

Yan Jun looked at the wide carriage that appeared after him, and gritted his teeth, “For the sake of the clan, don’t give up halfway, come on!”

With a whistle, everyone jumped out from behind the tree with knives in hand, lined up and blocked the road.

Several guards restrained their horses, drew out their long knives, pointed forward, and shouted, “Who is coming!”

As soon as the guard at the front shouted, most of the guards at the back of the convoy rushed over quickly on horseback.

The number of guards is not too many, only about fifty or sixty, but their eyes are bright, their expressions are dignified, the cold light on the blade is cold, and the spirit of the Yan people who have been sinned for half a year is one day at a time.

Yan people: “…”

Half a year ago, Xu was still able to fight, but now… can you fight?

A group of people can’t help but look at their leader.

Yan Jun: “…”

Yan Jun looked at the Xie family with stern eyes, and the Xie family guards also raised their full guard.

The atmosphere of the two sides was extremely tense, and it was about to explode.

On the carriage, Yin Mingyu heard the movement outside, glanced at the three maids, got up and planned to go out to have a look.

Xie Ce couldn’t feel the tension, so he stretched out his little hand to hug, “Mother~”

Yin Mingyu said: “Be honest.”

After she finished speaking, she pushed open the carriage door and bent over to go out.

And when he came out and looked up, he saw a group of people blocking the road in front of him. Yin Mingyu asked subconsciously, “Is there a famine in South Vietnam?”

Why are there refugees?

Afterwards, Jin’er and Yin’er immediately understood the unfinished meaning of their wife’s arms, glanced at the knives in those people’s hands, and twitched the corners of their mouths.

Yan Jun couldn’t hear what they said, just looked at them with an uncertain expression.

At the same time, Xie Ce in the carriage reached out to Ran Liu and asked her to carry him out.

Ranliu looked at the three people blocking the door of the carriage, and whispered to discourage: “Little Langjun, the young lady will let you stay.”

Xie Ce knew very well about being flexible, and since she refused, he crawled out on his own.

Ranliu couldn’t, so he had to hug him.

Yin Mingyu turned slightly to the side and glanced back.

Jin’er also turned sideways, just to make a gap, revealing the figures of Ran Liu and Xie Ce.

As soon as Yan Jun saw the beautiful young face of the woman in the carriage and the child in her arms, he immediately confirmed that they were the prefect’s wife and son, and immediately said in a slightly blunt Chinese language, “This lady, come out and speak. Bar!”

Yin Mingyu didn’t meet his eyes, “???”

After a while, she looked down at her clothes, and then at Jin’er Yin’er, who was in the same line as her and dressed simply.

Jin’er and Yin’er looked back at her wife with a complicated expression.

In the end, the three master and servant followed his line of sight, turned their heads slowly, and looked at the brightly dyed willows in the carriage behind them.

Dye Liu: “…”

She panicked!

Ranliu opened her eyes wide and shook her head slightly in panic, wanting to express her heart to the young lady, “No, no…”

Yin Mingyu took a small step and blocked her firmly, then turned around and insisted on the identity of Ranliu, “Can our young lady be invited by you? If you have anything, tell me first!”

Faithful face.

Xie Family: “…”

Not to mention the mighty guards of the Xie family, the servants who were afraid of being robbed before, all of them silently looked at the people standing on the carriage.

The tense atmosphere just now disappeared.

The latter carriage was Xie Ce’s Mr. Enlightenment and his book boy.

The book boy looked uneasy.

When the old gentleman heard Yin Mingyu’s words, he laughed and shook his head. He went back and sat down, stroking his beard and shaking his head, “Mrs. Xie Shao is quite quick-witted, don’t be impatient, don’t be impatient.”

In the carriage in front, Ranliu looked even more flustered, her lips trembling, but she didn’t dare to refute.

Xie Ce knew who “Young Madam” was, and his little head turned around quickly, his two round eyes looked back and forth, there was no fear at all, he was all curious.

Yan Jun asked, “Who are you? You can call the shots? I only talk to those who call the shots.”

“I’m the maidservant of the young lady, Jin’er.” Yin Mingyu raised her chin slightly, “If you have something to say, I will report it to the young lady.”

Jin’er: “…”

So who am I?

Yin Mingyu relied on the fact that no one in the Xie family dared to refute her, and asked directly: “Who are you? What do you want?”

She speaks in a smooth manner. Some people in the Yan tribe can’t understand Chinese, and some people can understand her words but can’t understand the meaning, and they all look at Yan Jun.

Of course Yan Jun couldn’t give his name, his cold eyes glanced at the guards of the Xie family vigilantly, and said ruthlessly: “We want to invite the lady and the young master to our place as guests, we are all desperados, you are the most Don’t resist.”

“Be… a guest?”

Yin Mingyu raised his eyebrows slightly, the word “guest” is rather subtle.

She looked at the group of “refugees” blocking the road, her eyes were both weighty and disgusting.

Yan Jun taught her to look awkward, her face became more and more dark, her brows wrinkled, and threatened: “Tell your madams, if you don’t want to see blood, just follow us honestly!”

As he spoke, he raised his knife to threaten, and the Yanzu people behind him also raised their knives.

The Xie family guards are well-trained, move in unison, and face each other with cold eyes.

Yan people: “…” No, you can’t be cowardly.

The hand holding the knife tightened and glared back fiercely.

Yin Mingyu was not affected by the atmosphere at all, and said, “I’ll go in and ask the young lady.”

After saying that, he bent down and got into the carriage.

Jin’er and Yin’er also got into the carriage and closed the carriage door with a snap.

Ranliu was so afraid that she knelt down on the carriage with her legs soft, and she couldn’t care, clutching Yin Mingyu’s sleeves and stammering: “Young, young, young lady, please forgive your maid. “How dare you maid…”

She said, and shivered.

Yin Mingyu poked her forehead with her finger, “Look at your worthless appearance.”

Ranliu grimaced, “Young madam…”

Yin Mingyu reassured: “I didn’t listen to them. There must be a reason for finding us like this. As long as it is useful, it will not hurt us easily, and you are safe.”

“The maid is naturally willing to be ruthless for the young lady, but, but, but…” Ranliu is not afraid of this, but what she is afraid of is, “If, in case, teach Langjun to know…”

She can’t imagine.

“What are you afraid of, I’m carrying it.”

At this time, Jin’er asked a question that had nothing to do with the tense atmosphere at this time: “Miss, you are Jin’er, who is the maid?”

Yin Mingyu said, “You are Tong’er.”

“Why did you steal the maid’s name?” Jin’er asked sincerely, “Can’t you just call Tong’er? To prevent our people from being confused.”

Yin Mingyu said righteously, “That won’t work, I have to be gold.”

Ranliu wanted to cry without tears: “…” I beg, is this the time to discuss this?

Xie Ce was excited, “Mother! Me! Me!”

Yin Mingyu pressed him and said, “I’m not your mother now…”

Ranliu was startled and waved frantically.

Yin Mingyu didn’t want to embarrass her little maid, so she just said, “Anyway, don’t call me ‘mother’. This is a game. When you see your father in a few days, the game will be over.”

Xie Ce nodded quickly and agreed: “Okay! Mother!”

Yin Mingyu glanced at him helplessly.

Xie Ce immediately covered his mouth with his hands and nodded again.

Jin’er then asked again, “Ma’am, shall we go with you?”

Yin Mingyu nodded, “If there is an armed fight, casualties are inevitable, let’s stabilize them first, and then make a calculation.”

Yin’er agreed: “Let’s send someone to go to the state city in advance to inform Lang Jun. Lang Jun knows that something happened to us, and he will definitely find a way.”

Moreover, he said to be a guest~

Yin Mingyu looked at the carriage door, although her vision was blocked, she couldn’t stop the scorching light in her eyes.

They had been discussing in the carriage for too long, and the people outside, especially the people from the Yan Clan, became increasingly restless.

At this moment, the carriage door opened again, and there was a commotion on both sides.

Yin Mingyu came out again, suppressed the secret excitement in her heart, cleared her throat, and said, “Our young lady said, it’s okay to go with you, but you need to be more respectful, our guards, you all saw it, Not vegetarian.”

When the Xie family guards heard the words, they cooperated very well, and they moved in unison, showing a fierce look.

The Yan people looked at Yan Jun again.

Yan Jun: “…”

Too smooth, but rather uneasy.

However, their purpose is to bring people back, and when things come to an end, they can’t back down.

So Yan Jun shouted again: “Tell them to put down the knife!”

When the Xie family guards heard this, they glared angrily, took a step closer, and threatened: “Well—”

The Yan clan people tried their best to control it and did not retreat. Yan Jun’s face was expressionless, but his eyes were flashing, thinking about the next step.

Yin Mingyu waved his hand to signal the Xie family guards to take a break, and then said after negotiation: “Look at you people, are you inviting people to be guests? What’s not easy to discuss?”

Unexpectedly, the coerced person would have to go down a ladder for them, and Yan Jun felt even more uneasy.

Seeing that he hadn’t spoken yet, Yin Mingyu simply turned against the guest and arranged it by himself, “Lead the way ahead.”

The Yan people looked at each other in dismay.

Yan Jun had to order the thin monkey Yanxia and teach him and a few people to lead the way.

Yin Mingyu really thought she was a personal maid, jumped out of the carriage, and commanded on behalf of the “lady”: “Follow up.”

The Xie family guards didn’t dare to look at her wrongly, they were really worried.

Yin Mingyu waved at the chief guard and told him to do the same.

The captain of the guard raised his hand and made several gestures. Twenty guards continued to closely guard around Xie Ce’s carriage, while the other guards retreated to the sides. After the convoy restarted, they followed at regular intervals. Two people, very orderly.

From the beginning to the end, there were guards standing by Yin Mingyu’s side without a trace.

The Yan clan members were similar, Yan Jun sent more people to watch around the carriage in front, only he and twenty people stayed behind.

They hadn’t seen the length of the Quan Xie family’s convoy before, and now they watched the convoy move forward little by little, as if they couldn’t see the end, and their eyes widened in shock.

“Brother Jun, this, this…”

Yan Jun was also shocked, shocked by how many Xie family members, and how many things they had, but he was the leader anyway, so naturally he couldn’t hold his breath, so he whispered: “Don’t look like you don’t know anything!”

But they really don’t know much.

The young people of the Yan clan looked at the Xie family’s carriage in dazzling eyes, and suddenly saw the wooden cage on the board of one of the carriages, and exclaimed: “Sheep!”

A group of people stared at the fat sheep and swallowed their saliva.

Even the calm Yan Jun stared at the sheep with burning eyes.

The sheep of the right minister’s family felt the coveted gaze, turned to their group, and rubbed their hooves in the cage, as if they were going to go up if they were not trapped in the cage.

Yin Mingyu is very good at observing people, and his eyes are not too sharp, so it is easy to teach people to detect.

She was just across the motorcade, paying attention to those people, just by the straightforward eyes they stared at her sheep, she felt that it was a good fit.

Yin’er also stood with her, whispered in her ear, “Miss, don’t we leave a mark?”

Yin Mingyu said softly, “Look again.”

The last carriage finally came to the front of the two groups of people, Yin Mingyu beckoned to stop, stepped on the edge vigorously, and climbed up with a rope in three or two strokes.

After she went up, Yin’er also climbed up quickly.

Then the master and servant both turned over and sat on the huge wooden box, with their feet hanging down naturally.

Hearing that the ladies outside were all very weak, Yan Jun and the others did not doubt their identities at all, and went straight to the back.

Yin Mingyu sat on the wooden box and watched them clean up the traces of horseshoes and ruts, and sighed, “It’s quite cautious.”

Yin’er frowned, “Miss, how can we remind Lang Jun?”

Yin Mingyu was very optimistic, and said with a smile: “I can’t tell the fabric of my clothes. Caution and knowledge are two different things.”

“That’s right.” Yin’er was no longer troubled, she sat on a high place and shook her legs gently, and said with a smile, “Miss, I have never sat here to see the scenery before, the view is better.”

Yin Mingyu could not lie down directly, pointed to the blue sky, and reminded her: “Look up.”

Yin’er raised her head, spread her arms and lay down, sighing: “It’s good~”

Behind the convoy, Yan Jun and the others looked at the maid of the Xie family and laughed and looked at each other, feeling a little panic in their hearts.

This is far from what they originally imagined…

In fact, they had already started to deviate from their initial imagination since they had waited for Mrs. Governor to come, and at this time they had not realized what trouble they had opened the door to welcome back.

In short, Yin Mingyu just took hundreds of people from the Xie family, unharmed and willingly followed the roadblockers as guests.

Eat the poor kind of guest.

Half an hour later, Xie Qin personally brought someone to pick up Yin Mingyu and Xie Ce, but never met their motorcade, so he walked all the way to the fork in the road where the motorcade passed, but still no one was encountered.

The guard asked for instructions: “Lang Jun, are you still going forward to greet him?”

Xie Qin frowned and asked the guard who had come to report the letter earlier, “Is the young lady sure you will leave early in the morning?”

The guard replied: “Yes, when the subordinates rushed to Nanyue City, the convoy was already packed and ready to leave.”

Yin Mingyu is not a person who will break his trust, perhaps something delayed on the way.

Xie Qin then instructed: “Continue forward.”

So the cavalry team continued to gallop like a state border, without encountering the team.

The local officials were not allowed to go out of bounds without order or order. Xie Qin stopped his horse and sent a few guards to move forward. He looked around and pondered.

After a while, the sound of horse hooves gradually approached, and the guard hurried back to report: “Lang Jun, there are ruts in the front ten miles, but suddenly disappeared during the entry into the state!”

Xie Qin coldly ordered: “Search around!”

The guards dispersed immediately, slapping the grass and trees with their knives and looking around.

Suddenly, a guard shouted: “Lang Jun, there is something abnormal here!”

The guard next to him was also shouting, and then the guards in that area said “something abnormal” one after another.

When Xie Qin walked over, he saw that there was a small piece of bare, stomped ground behind the tree, and footprints could still be discerned on it.

The guards were worried: “Lang Jun, nothing will happen, right?”

Xie Qin clenched his fist and remained calm, “If you look closely, there may be traces of fighting.”

The guards began to search the vicinity, but there was no sign of a fight.

Xie Qin thought of a certain possibility and had an inexplicable headache.
