"Madam, the chief soldier wants us to escort you to Kaifeng for a reunion."

A deep voice sounded quietly behind Chen Lan, Chen Lan was taken aback by a little unpreparedness, and when she turned to look, she found that it was actually the farmer who was responsible for cultivating this field.

Chen Lan immediately frowned and asked, "When did he say that he wanted me to go to Kaifeng to get together?" ”

Obviously, Chen Lan had begun to doubt Da Niu's words at the moment, and all along, no one had ever come to disturb her every time she came to pick vegetables. Today, this big bull not only appeared strangely, but also said some strange things.

Seeing Chen Lan doubting himself, a trace of impatience flashed on Da Niu's face, but he quickly hid it, and explained again: "Madame doesn't know, we are actually all secret guards who have been sent here by the chief soldier to protect you. ”

Da New's pause, glanced at Chen Lan, and saw that he seemed to believe himself a little, so he immediately continued to make up while the iron was hot: "I believe that Madame also knows that we have been here since you started to take over this farm, so Madame does not need to have any suspicions about us." This time, the chief soldier asked us to identify ourselves and escort my wife to Kaifeng, also because there have been spies of the imperial court in various cities recently, and because of this incident, many prefects and officials have died in each city. ”

Chen Lan heard what Da Niu said, and she also remembered what happened in Tianhenan South when she came to her, and for this reason, Mao Wenlong also sent a message, asking them not to go to the city during this time, so as not to be found by people with ulterior motives to attack.

"Xianggong really wants me to go to Kaifeng to get together?" Chen Lan had already relaxed her guard, she understood that Mao Wenlong had always attached great importance to their safety, and Ye had such a thing happened before, and she still believed in the reason of the secret guard.

Da Niu was overjoyed in his heart, trying to restrain his excitement, he still said expressionlessly: "The general soldier has been gone for more than two months, and now the chaos outside has not subsided, and he doesn't know when he will be able to come back." In addition, the chief soldier has been worried about the safety of his wife, so he wants us to quietly take his wife to Kaifeng for a reunion. ”

"Of course, for the sake of Madame's safety, please keep this matter confidential and don't leak the matter of your departure, so as not to be intercepted and killed halfway after being discovered."

Da Niu's words are true, Chen Lan can't help but believe it, but she is a woman, and she didn't agree to Da Niu immediately, but asked him to wait for a while. Then he turned around and hurried to find Hong Ziyan and Li Xiu to discuss.

Seeing Chen Lan turn around and leave, a trace of murderous intent obviously flashed in Da Niu's eyes, and his hands were already clenched into fists, and he might rush up at any time and directly tie up Chen Lan and take him away.

In the end, Da Niu still restrained his impulse, if he could deceive Chen Lan and let him cooperate with him to leave quietly, then the chance of kidnapping Chen Lan and leaving Ye County safely would be greatly increased.

Looking back at the few subordinates guarding outside the garden, Da Niu was relieved, even if Chen Lan finally saw through his conspiracy. But in this uninhabited place, he could still easily forcibly kidnap Chen Lan.

Chen Lan soon found Hong Ziyan, who was busy picking vegetables with Li Xiu.

"Sister, why are you here, have you picked enough dishes?" Hong Ziyan heard the movement behind her, and as soon as she turned around, she saw Chen Lan striding over, and immediately asked suspiciously.

"Sister, stop first and listen to me." Chen Lan once again quickened his pace and came to Hong Ziyan's face.

"What's the matter with my sister?" Seeing that Chen Lan seemed to be in a hurry, Hong Ziyan suddenly became even more puzzled.

Usually Chen Lan is the most stable, when did he have such a panicked look, don't think about it, Hong Ziyan should know that something big must have happened.

Sure enough, as soon as Chen Lan came up, he directly leaned in her ear and said, "Xianggong suddenly sent a secret guard to pick me up and go to Kaifeng to get together. ”

Hong Ziyan was stunned for a moment, and then said with some jealousy: "Did Brother Mao say that he would take me with him?" ”

Chen Lan was stunned for a moment, and then he saw Hong Ziyan's jealous look, and said with a smile: "Good sister, how could Xianggong leave you behind." Also, this time the secret guard makes me very puzzled, it is actually the big cow who has been farming here. Now my sister just can't make up her mind, should I believe them? ”

Hearing Chen Lan's previous words, Hong Ziyan was relieved, but she couldn't make up her mind about the next words, and hesitated and said: "Since they said that they were the secret guards sent by Brother Mao, then there should be something that can prove their true identity." Sister, why don't you let them prove it. ”

Chen Lan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said happily: "My sister still has a way, let's let Da Niu come up with evidence to prove that they are the secret guards." ”

Hong Ziyan was not dragged away by Chen Lan, but stopped her, and then quickly asked, "It's just that sister, have you seen the waist card or token of the secret guard?" ”

Hearing Hong Ziyan say this, Chen Lan suddenly became distressed: "I haven't seen these either!" ”

After frowning and thinking for a moment, Chen Lan suddenly smiled and said: "Actually, it doesn't matter, if they are really dark guards, they will naturally take out the token." If they weren't pretending to be not, we would have been embarrassed by them, but just look at his expression. ”

Hong Ziyan also suddenly came to her senses, she grinned and said: "Sister is so smart, if you think that big cow will not know what token we don't know, so as long as we behave calmly, it will be no problem to test that big cow." ”

"Then what are you waiting for, let's go." The two immediately turned around and left the garden, walking towards another garden next door.

However, Chen Lan and Hong Ziyan didn't know that when the two were discussing just now, all the words they said fell into the ears of the man who was squatting outside the vegetable garden.

The man sneered, quickly ran to the vegetable garden next door, and before Hong Ziyan and Chen Lan arrived, they had already told Da Niu what the two had just said.

After listening to his subordinates' instructions, Da Niu immediately showed a hideous smile, and then waved his hand to let his subordinates retreat, and after a little contemplation, he took out a token of Dongchang and hung it around his neck.

This token is a symbol of his status as an expatriate spy, which only people who are also Dongchang will know, and no one else will know it. It is obviously appropriate to use this to fool Chen Lan and Hong Ziyan.

There was a slight sound of footsteps outside the vegetable garden, and as soon as Da Niu looked up, he saw Chen Lan and Hong Ziyan coming together, he immediately calmed down, and then pretended to be casual and waited for the second daughter to come.

"Madame, how are you going? This is a matter of urgency, and if the lady thinks it is all right, please leave now. Da Niu said with a simple face.
