Chapter 20: Feeling Wrong
Now that she has become a relative, let him provide her with the greatest help within his ability and protect her.
"That's great, thank you Cheng Gongzi." Rong Qing was very moved, the Cheng family has a big business, and the information they can find out must be more than them.
In fact, she also wanted to trouble Cheng Li'an to help her check it later, but now Cheng Li'an has brought it up herself, which saves some things.
"Don't be so polite, just call me Li'an in the future." Cheng Li'an said.
"Then Cheng Gongzi will call me gentle." Rong smiled lightly, they were business partners, and now Cheng Li'an helped her so much, she regarded him as a friend.
"Okay, gently." Cheng Li'an also smiled. He was satisfied to be able to be treated as a friend by her.

"Are you sure the information is correct?" In a private room in the Zuixian Building in Kyoto, Song Yunsheng was listening to the news reported by the person in front of him.
If Rong Qing was here, he would have recognized that the person who was looking for the news was one of the security personnel they had recruited before, named Fan Yu.
"That's right, I heard them say that this time they will escort Miss Chen to Ancheng in a low-key manner." Fan Yu told everything he knew.
"Good." Song Yunsheng picked up the wine glass and took a sip, his expression fierce. Wen Yuan, this time see how you can run away.
He called a man and took out a jade pendant on his body.
"Take this jade pendant and hand it over to Brother Liu, and tell him to pay attention to the convoy passing by Fengyue Ridge in the future, and be sure to catch the people who came out of the Kyoto Security Center, especially a person named Wen Yuan." Song Yunsheng said.
The big brother Liu in his mouth is Liu Yifeng, the big boss of the gang of bandits gathered in Fengyueling. With his arrangement, he believed that Wen Yuan would definitely fall into his hands this time, and when the time came, he would let Wen Yuan know what the fate of offending him would be.
"Then the safety of the little girl will be left to you." Lord Chen said to Yao Yan and Wen Yuan at the gate of Chen's mansion.
"Don't worry, Lord Chen, we will escort Miss Chen to Ancheng safely." Yao Yan replied.
Yao Yan and Wen Yuan sat outside the two carriages in front and behind, sat with the coachman, and after saying goodbye to Lord Chen, they took Miss Chen and got up and left Kyoto.
The carriage they chose was not particularly extravagant and ostentatious, and it didn't look very conspicuous from the outside, except that on both carriages hung a lantern with the word "bao" written on it, which was a unique symbol of the security center that Rong had set gently.
In fact, for this sign, Rong thought about it for a long time, thinking about whether to hang this lantern, maybe if there is no lantern, it will be more ordinary and will not attract the attention of others. But Yao Yan and Wen Yuan agreed that it should be added, because in this way, it can represent the security center and be a symbol of status.
Rong Qing failed to force them, and finally hung the two lanterns. However, it may also be that she has thought too much, and the security center has only been established recently, so it should not attract anyone's attention.
"Miss Chen, there is Fengyue Ridge ahead, let's take a rest here first, and wait for the next time we quickly cross Fengyue Ridge." Yao Yan said to Miss Chen in the car.
"I'm tired." A gentle voice sounded in the car, and then a woman in a light blue brocade dress got out of the carriage with the maid accompanying her, this is the Miss Chen they need to escort this time.
"When you pass through Fengyue Ridge, if there are bandits, Miss Chen will try not to come out and stay in the carriage." Yao Yan said that in case you encounter bandits or something, don't let them know about the existence of Miss Chen in the car.
Miss Chen nodded and complied with Yao Yan's request.
"But Miss Chen, please rest assured, our behavior this time is relatively low-key, and it is unlikely that we will meet bandits." Yao Yan inquired that the bandits were not interested in ordinary carriages, and at most they came up to show their faces and asked for tolls.
Yao Yan said this, which made Miss Chen feel less nervous.
After a short rest, they set off again, and Yao Yan and Wen Yuan both hid their swords in the closest place to them, so that they could counterattack as quickly as possible when they encountered danger.
There are two reasons why Fengyue Ridge can become a place where bandits gather.
First, the Kadake Ridge is an important connecting point that Kyoto must pass through to various places; Second, the entire place of Fengyue Ridge is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
After entering the Fengyue Ridge, the light here is not as bright as before due to the dense woods. Both Yao Yan and Wen Yuan raised their vigilance and kept an eye on their surroundings.
Suddenly there was a sound of leaves in one of the surrounding trees, and then a dozen bandits with large knives ran out, led by a big man with a cross-shaped scar on the right cheek of his face, and they immediately blocked the road in front of the convoy.
"I planted this tree, I opened this road, if you want to live from here, leave the road to buy money." As soon as the big man came, he said the official phrase of the bandits.
"This uncle, we are just ordinary people who went to Ancheng to join their relatives, and we ask the uncle to raise his noble hand." Yao Yan played the role of this ordinary family very dutifully, with fear on his face and a tremor in his voice.
Those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black, and after following Rong lightly for a long time, Yao Yan also learned to act.
"In that case, if you pay the money, I will let you go." Seeing that none of them had weapons on them, they were indeed ordinary people, the big man put the big knife in his hand on his shoulder, and said.
"Okay, okay, we'll hand it over." Yao Yan quickly replied, took out the prepared silver money and handed it to the big man.
The big man weighed the weight of the silver coin in his hand, and was very satisfied, "Count you as acquaintances, let's go." ”
Then he asked the younger brother beside him to get out of the way and let Yao Yan and them leave.
Yao Yan and Wen Yuan immediately set up a carriage and quickly passed through them.
"The three masters, why let them go, didn't the big boss let us arrest them?" A person next to the big man saw Yao Yan and they left, and immediately asked.
This big man is Yang Tianba, the third leader of the Fengyueling Bandit Gang. After he heard the little brothers around him say this, he laughed.
"Who said I let them go? I'm just getting them to pay the toll here and let their guard down. The traps had already been arranged, and when they thought they would no longer be ambushed and let their guard down, they would be caught off guard. Yang Tianba said, with a smug smile on his face, he couldn't wait to see the panicked expressions of the group.
"The three masters are wise." After hearing this, the little brother praised Yang Tianba for a while, and Yang Tianba was very useful.
"Let's go and see how they react." Yang Tianba took a group of junior brothers to the ambush location behind.
