Chapter 74: The City

Under the blue sky, the carriage sped along the mountain road.

Sitting in the carriage, Shen Moci opened the curtain and looked at Qingcheng, which was getting farther and farther away at the foot of the mountain, the sense of urgency gradually disappeared, and the heart that had been beating violently finally calmed down completely. The hand covering his chest let go, and he pulled out a thick stack of deeds inside.

Although she had already planned a plan when she was thrown into prison last night, now that the deed was actually in hand, she still felt a little unrealistic.

the Shen family's silk shop opposite the door of the Hu family's ancestral shop;

100 acres of mulberry forest outside the city;

the ancestral shop of the Shen family;

the Shen family's mansion;

……

Having taken over the Shen family's business since she was ten years old, she knew too well what this qiē meant. The Shen family's best shop, foundation, symbol and place to settle down, the thin pile of paper in her hand is most of the Shen family's accumulation in Qingcheng over the past hundred years, and it can also be said to constitute the cornerstone of the entire Shen family.

When I was helping to manage the business, I could only covet it secretly, hating why I was born as a daughter, or hating why I didn't reincarnate in a family like the Hu family, even if I was a daughter, I could only covet it from a distance, and now it's all hers!

"Hahaha."

On the secluded mountain road, across the carriage, Shen Moci Demon smiled into the sky, and everywhere he went, he was so shocked that grasshoppers jumped out of the grass on the side of the road.

The driver outside the car door looked up at the somewhat gloomy sky, only to feel a demonic wind blowing beside him. With a wave of his horsewhip, he unconsciously sped up the speed of the car, just wanting to send people over as quickly as possible and end this long torture.

At this accelerated speed, Shen Moci in the carriage was killed. The demon laughter suddenly stopped, and then there was an exclamation, and Shen Moci fell in response to the sound, and the deed in his hand was scattered all over the ground.

"What's going on?"

"Girl, the little one just wants to send you to meet His Royal Highness King Ping as soon as possible." The coachman said truthfully.

Holding the saddle of the car, Shen Moci stood up, and after thinking about it, he felt that it made sense. The first few times the shadow of the little marquis cutting off the beard halfway is still there, and it is inevitable that there will be many dreams at night, which will naturally be exhausted.

"Then run as fast as you can."

This was in line with the coachman's wishes, and he raised his whip and tightened the reins, and the horses ran on the mountain road with their hooves scattered. It's just that this can hurt Shen Moci in the car, the mountain road is already bumpy, and the wooden wheels are even more upside down. Rao is mentally prepared, and she is also dizzy. A short mountain road on weekdays will indeed be an incomparably long ordeal for her.

Fortunately, she had some support in her heart, and King Ping told her that the emperor had secretly sent more people. As long as you can get your hands on something, it's absolutely foolproof.

Although she didn't believe in King Ping, she believed in Emperor Taishang.

With this belief, even if her ass was turned into several pieces, she persevered with a strong mind. Finally, after a long bump that seemed to have no end in sight, the voice of the coachman was heard outside.

"Girl, the valley ahead is it."

As soon as the coachman finished speaking, the carriage had stopped steadily in front of the valley. The door opened, and the driver fell to his knees as a pedal. Rubbing his sour legs, Shen Moci got out of the carriage and saw King Ping and Song Qinwen coming one after the other. Seeing her, the two looked forward to and delighted.

"Ah Ci."

Walking in front, King Ping walked over with three steps and two steps. After she nodded at him, he opened his arms and held her tightly in his arms.

"Thank you for your hard work."

Let King Ping hold him, leaning his chin on his shoulder, taking advantage of the unpreparedness of Shen Moci to show helplessness to Song Qinwen, which was mixed with three points of resignation.

Ah Ci She ...... There are also hardships. If she hadn't begged for peace, perhaps they would still be eating and drinking rancid water in the filthy and smelly prison. Seeing her being hugged by King Ping, Song Qinwen was a little uncomfortable, but when he saw her eyes, his anger was instantly suppressed. Thinking of Ah Ci's goodness, he began to feel distressed.

"Your Highness, Ah Ci has worked hard all the way here, so it's better to let her enter the account to freshen up and rest first."

Seeing Shen Moci's expression of gratitude, Song Qinwen hurriedly shook his head. Compared to what Ah Ci did for him, how insignificant his words were now that he was pushing the boat so smoothly.

"It's time to rest."

As the son of the favorite concubine of the Emperor Taishang, King Ping came to Qingcheng this time and also brought a lot of manpower. These men were supposed to be sent to Qingcheng to inquire about the news, but the plan couldn't catch up with the changes, so the little marquis arrived ahead of schedule and brought a secret guard. Although King Ping's staff is not mediocre, it is a little less than the dark guard. It's okay to be the duty of the guards so far, if you are caught by the secret guards when you act, although you can't cure the emperor and rebel at that time, it is easy to put this hat on King Ping.

The name is not right, and King Ping takes action to restrain his hands. He also knew that it would not work like this, so he went to the secret letter to accompany him, saying that the little marquis was too powerful, and asked his father to send a few more powerful people. Because the letter came late, it took a lot of people to come and go. The matter was almost over, and there was no need for them to go into the city again to attract attention, so they would simply be stationed in this inconspicuous valley outside the city with their previous men.

The front and back two groups of people guarded layer by layer, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the small valley is impregnable. After sending Shen Moci back to the account, looking at the pile of house deeds she showed out, and estimating that the Shen family's property represented behind it was no less than the income from the military salary banquet of the little marquis, King Ping was overjoyed.

"Kill pigs and sheep, and have a feast tonight."

Shen Moci, who drank saliva to relieve his breath, choked on a sip of tea in his throat and coughed violently.

"Your Highness, the little marquis is still in Qingcheng now."

Speaking of Lu Jingyuan, King Ping remembered the shame of the warm pot banquet last night, "Now this valley is solid, if he dares to break through, this king will definitely shoot him into a hedgehog." ”

Sail carefully on the ship of ten thousand years, although she is not completely without a way back, but thinking of the ruthless style of His Highness, she has really fallen to that step...... That's worse than death. With Shen Moci's boldness, she shuddered unconsciously when she thought of that person, and at the same time she made up her mind that she must be cautious about the Shen family's property. As long as she can keep a part, with her intelligence, she will definitely be able to make a comeback in the future.

"Ah Ci didn't mean that," Shen Moci lightly relieved Luo Shang, wrapped his lotus arm around the neck of His Royal Highness King Ping, and whispered softly in his ear: "With His Highness's wisdom and martial arts, now this place is solid, and it is naturally foolproof." But Your Highness has to think about the noble concubine Niangniang who is far away by the emperor's side, she must be worried about you day and night, and she can't wait to hear your good news as soon as possible. When His Royal Highness returns, he will have a feast in the capital, not only will your face be bright, but even the concubine will be happy. ”

That's right, setting up a banquet in such a remote valley where birds don't poop is nothing like the glory of being with you.

"Ah Ci is right, * a moment is worth a thousand gold."

"Your Highness, Ah Ci has not bathed yet."

"This king washes with you."

Soon there was a sound of water ripples fluctuating in the tent, hanging on King Ping's body, turning his head, Shen Moci did not indulge in the slightest in his eyes, but only disgust and rejoicing. The disgust is simply because of King Ping, and it is also because of him. There were a few lessons from the previous time, and she was really scared by the little marquis. Every time, she is sure of nine out of ten, and when she sees that she is going to succeed, she will be surprised to give her a head-on blow.

So this time, she must cut through the mess quickly and not allow the slightest mistake.

Unlike Shen Moci's sobriety, King Ping at this moment is completely addicted. A child of the royal family like him, since he was a child, the women around him have been like carp crossing the river, and they have everything about fat and thin. Except for Lu Jingyuan's silver spear wax head, most of the others have already enjoyed the wonderful taste of men and women. Even so, he had never experienced the good feeling he had received from Ah Ci.

"Comfortable, good ......," he said repeatedly.

Wrapping his arms around his neck, Shen Moci said softly: "The days will be long in the future, Your Highness should deal with the accounts earlier, so as to give the good news to the concubine." ”

Hearing this, he softly coaxed King Ping to get up, and listened to him put on his clothes and walked outside and repeatedly ordered the account room to let them do their best, Shen Moci finally breathed a sigh of relief. With the tight defense here, coupled with the overnight accounting, this time it will definitely be foolproof.

From these points alone, Shen Moci is right, the people newly sent by the Emperor Taishang are not vegetarians, and the valley is already easy to defend and difficult to attack, so it will definitely be okay to keep it all night. But she counted a qiē, and even King Ping counted it, but after all, she missed one point - the upper beam is not correct and the lower beam is crooked.

With a master like King Ping, who is ambitious and talented, and greedy for pleasure, how can the subordinates he brought out be loyal to their duties. With the order to settle the accounts, the entire camp knew that Miss Shen had brought back a large sum of gold and silver.

The task is accomplished, and after so many days of "hard work", it's time to relax.

Although King Ping's mention was dispelled under Shen Moci's special persuasion, his subordinates consciously understood Shangyi's intentions. The dinner was sumptuous, and then a little wine, and the guards around the bonfire began to gag, and the wine was strong, and some even talked about the flower girl who was never forgotten in the flower building in the capital.

"Master Hou...... This ......"

Behind a hidden boulder in the valley, Lu Ping listened to the movement below with some surprise.

After receiving the order from the little marquis, all of them gathered here, and after studying the terrain of the valley and the arrangement of manpower many times, they felt that the shape was not optimistic. The enemy, who was already outnumbered and had occupied the place for many days, had already occupied the most advantageous point on the terrain. Sensing the seriousness of the situation, they prepared for a vicious battle at night.

But what's going on now?

Even the guards on the lookout on the opposite valley began to drink, and the smell of alcohol wafted through the valley, and even they could smell it.

What about the good and the bad?

Lu Ping, who felt that he had been teased, looked at the little marquis next to him, and saw that his face was still unfathomable, so he quickly put away his contempt. The lion fights the rabbit with all his strength, and he should not relax at this time. Realizing his mistakes, he admired Hou Ye even more.

is worthy of the little marquis, and he is really calm and calm.

That girl dared to doubt him! Throughout the afternoon, this thought kept hovering in Lu Jingyuan's mind, making his expression more and more cold.

"Quick fix." I have to clean up here quickly, and go back to teach that girl a lesson.

As the night wore on, the guards in the valley were drunk. When everyone was full of wine and food, when everyone's nerves were relaxed, the dark guards dressed in navy blue robes and blending in with the night quietly approached.
