Chapter 229: Sudden Changes

The husband and wife were chatting, and Yuliang asked to see him.

"What's the matter at such a late hour?" Xiao Sa groaned and asked the little maid to pass him in.

"Seventh Master," Yuliang looked solemn, "Lord Fang's little servant asks to see!" ”

Xiao Sa and Shen Muqing exchanged a look, and Xiao Sa got up and went to the flower hall.

Shen Muqing was not at ease, and wanted to go to the flower hall several times to have a look, but he thought of the defense of men and women and folded back.

After a long while, Xiao Sa came back: "Mu Qing, pack up the things at home." His expression was very solemn, "Lord Fang sent someone to say that they found a few Yuanmeng people with a burly figure thirty miles away from Yanzhou Wei, he is afraid that they are spies of the Yuanmeng people, let us be careful - once Yuanmeng attacks the city, we will run into the mountains." ”

How so?

Shen Muqing was stunned, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses, and he hurriedly asked Mingxia and the others to pack up their things, and buried some of the gold and silver jewelry under the old locust tree in the yard...... After being busy for most of the day, he only took two small burdens, but Xiao Sa looked strange: "That's it!" ”

"I've buried everything that should be buried, and I've hidden everything that should be hidden," Shen Muqing told Xiao Sa in a low voice where he hid things, "There are only a few soft and a few changes of clothes in the baggage, I asked Yuegui to make cakes, and when the time comes, just stuff a few cakes in a baggage." ”

"It's quite thoughtful." Xiao Sa nodded, "It's not too early, let's rest!" Maybe it's a false alarm. At the end of the sentence, there was a bit of self-comfort.

"Since Lord Fang comes to report the news, whether it is true or not, he is always kind," Shen Muqing smiled and emphasized the importance of prevention, "It's better for us to be prepared than to resign ourselves to fate." ”

Xiao Sa hugged Shen Muqing and went to the bedroom: "It's not safe for you to follow me like this." ”

"It's not up to you to decide." Shen Muqing comforted him, "Go to sleep." If it's really hard to escape, I don't know if I can get some sleep? ”

"Yes!" Xiao Sa smiled and dragged his clothes to bed.

In this case, where did the two of them feel sleepy, and they didn't want to turn over and wake each other up, they both stiffened their eyes and saw that the sky was white before they fell asleep in a daze.

The next day, the water in Huding County was not prosperous, it was no different from weekdays, and there was no news from Yanzhou Wei, Xiao Sa pondered for a long time and went to the county school.

Shen Muqing looked at the two buckets of cakes that Yuegui had baked overnight, and couldn't help but cry and laugh a little - I don't know when I will finish eating!

She was worried when Mrs. Fang came to visit.

Shen Muqing hurriedly welcomed Mrs. Fang into the house.

"My lord asked me to report a letter to Xiao Ye." Mrs. Fang said straight to the point, "Last year, the Yuanmeng people also called, and Lord Zheng brought the whole city to burn oil under the city, which supported the reinforcements of several other guards. You are young, you have not experienced it, and at that time, you don't know how chaotic it is in the city, and you have to prepare some food at home. ”

Shen Muqing nodded, and told Mrs. Fang about the fact that she had made baked cakes last night.

Seeing that she was still a little disapproving, Mrs. Fang sighed, ran to the kitchen to see the baked cakes made by Yuegui, and said, "It's still too little." You can do some more! ”

Seeing her being so enthusiastic, Shen Muqing thought that even if she couldn't eat it and give it to others, it would still be a personal favor, so she nodded to Yuegui: "Let people do more!" ”

Yuegui didn't sleep all night, and her spirit was a little trance-like, so she called a few mothers in the kitchen to make baked cakes, and added fire to the stove by herself, and fell asleep as she added.

Sending Mrs. Fang away, Xiao Sa came back.

Shen Muqing was startled and hurriedly greeted him: "Why did you come back at this time?" But what news is coming from Yanzhouwei? ”

Xiao Sa's expression was a little solemn: "I asked Mr. Guo to watch in the county school, and I went outside to take a look." ”

"How?" Shen Muqing nervously pinched Xiao Sa's sleeve.

"There was no rain this spring, and it rained continuously in the summer, and it didn't stop ......until the end of July," Xiao Sa looked at Shen Muqing brightly, "I'm afraid that the harvest of the Yuanmeng people is not very good, so I will take advantage of this autumn season to grab grain." ”

War?

Shen Muqing was a little dazed.

It was the first time she had encountered anything like this.

"Don't be afraid!" Xiao Sa saw that his wife's expression was a little gloomy, and hugged her tightly, as if in this way, he could give her some courage, "With me!" ”

Xiao Sa's warm embrace brought Shen Muqing back to his senses: "Then what should we do?" ”

"I asked, when the Yuanmeng people called last year, the government organized the young strong men to hold it, but not every year it can be held like last year...... Xiao Sa muttered, "I think, this matter has to be Kao ourselves." ”

"And what are you going to do?" Shen Muqing was a little worried, "Do you want to find a few helpers?" ”

Xiao Sa nodded: "So I'll go and discuss this matter with Master Zheng later." ”

"Lord Zheng?" This was another accident, Shen Muqing instructed him, "No matter how good he is with you, he is also an official...... You can be tactful when you speak! ”

"I know!" Xiao Sa smiled and comforted her, "He has a big heart, and I naturally have endless words; If he is short-sighted, I will find some like-minded people to do it with him. You can't just sit back because the guard is incompetent, right? ”

Shen Muqing nodded, and wanted to tell him a few words, but a little servant said, "Master, Mr. Guo is here." ”

Xiao Sa let go of Shen Muqing: "Leave him alone in the county school today...... I'll go see what's going on with him! ”

"Then I'll also go and ask Yuegui to make more baked cakes......"

"It's good!" Xiao Sa is not very optimistic about the prospects, "Let's find a way to store some water." ”

"Hmm!" Shen Muqing responded, Xiao Sa hugged her again, and then strode out.

Shen Muqing went to the kitchen.

Laurel was still napping.

Shen Muqing woke her up, asked her to go to bed to rest, and asked Mingxia to arrange the people in the family and let them all help make baked cakes for emergencies.

The maid mothers also heard some rumors, although she didn't say it, but it was more quick than usual.

Shen Muqing was also relieved to see everyone working together, and comforted them with a smile: "It's great, let's go to Jinzhou to visit relatives." ”

"Exactly!" Wang's mother smiled, "Grandma can also see the prosperity of Jinzhou. ”

"The third lady doesn't know how happy she is?" Magpie laughed.

"That's right." Huang Ying added with a smile, "The third wife will definitely take grandma to the Guanyin Temple, where it will be fruitful to ask for a child." ”

"You are a little girl, and you don't have a stop to speak." Mother Wang smiled and nodded Huang Ying's forehead, "Grandma, don't listen to her nonsense...... The third wife loves to go there because the food there is well cooked. Grandma went, she could really go there and play around. ”

The atmosphere in the kitchen has become cheerful, and there is no longer the depression and gloom just now.

"Okay!" Shen Muqing responded, but secretly thought about finding a way to persuade Xiao Sa to leave Huding temporarily...... It really didn't work, so he bribed Lord Zheng and Master Peng with a lot of money......

Back in the house, Xiao Sa hadn't come back yet.

Shen Muqing thought of Wang's mother's words, couldn't sit still, and tiptoed to the ear room of the flower hall.

Xiao Sa is talking to Mr. Guo.

“…… It is unrealistic to go. Not to mention that my current identity does not allow it, but the towering trees that cover the sky and the sun next to the only official road leading to Ya'an Mansion in Huding are the best ambush places...... If it were me, I would definitely send someone to ambush there. What's more, you have to go through Tianquan to go to Ya'an Mansion, and no one knows whether Tianquan was attacked by the Yuanmeng people. The people in the city were reluctant to leave, on the one hand, because they would become displaced people after leaving, and on the other hand, because no one was sure that they would be able to reach Ya'an Mansion smoothly. ”

"You're not in favor of leaving, either." Mr. Guo's voice was a little helpless, "If you want those officers and soldiers of the Kao Guard to fight against the Yuanmeng people, it is better to take the risk of going to Ya'an Mansion." ”

Xiao Sa smiled faintly: "I think Master Peng and Master Zheng will have some arrangements, so don't worry too much." ”

Mr. Guo stood up very excitedly when he heard this: "Could it be that we are helpless to watch the repeated attacks of the Yuanmeng people like this?" "It's very bookish.

Xiao Sa smiled and didn't make a sound.

Sending Mr. Guo away, he pulled Shen Muqing out of the ear room.

"I'm going to Master Zheng!" Xiao Sa smiled, "You rest early." Yanzhou Wei is fifty miles away from here, and if there is a fight, it will not be able to hit you for a while. ”

"Are you going to Yanzhouwei?" Shen Muqing was worried, "You have to be careful!" ”

"I see!" Xiao Sa smiled and slapped Shen Muqing's buttocks, "Go and make a cake." If you don't have anything to eat, see if I don't eat you. ”

Knowing that he was trying to relax himself, Shen Muqing cooperated and pouted coquettishly: "If you beat me again, you won't have any water to drink." ”

Xiao Sa laughed and left.

Shen Muqing went back to the house and picked out a very simple fine brocade cloth gown, and sewed a lot of hidden bags for the gown, which was used to hold life-saving soft when the time came.

It wasn't until the beginning of the lanterns that Xiao Sa came back.

"Have you eaten?" Shen Muqing hurriedly stepped forward to serve him to change his clothes, and smelled the smell of dirt on him.

"Not yet!" Xiao Sa's face was a little stern, "I went to Yanzhou Wei today to talk to Lord Zheng and Lord Fang about my opinions, and both adults agreed with my opinions, and we agreed on a few plans to defend the city together...... Master Zheng and Master Fang went to see Master Peng, and I came back first. ”

Shen Muqing hurriedly helped him get a face wash.

"I'm going to take a look out of town early tomorrow morning." Xiao Sa wiped his face, "In case the city is broken, there is also a place to hide - Yuanmeng will abandon the city after looting the property, as long as he doesn't hurt people, he will always be relieved." ”

"Is it possible to break the city?" There was a look of panic in Shen Muqing's eyes.

Xiao Sa shook her hand and nodded solemnly: "Yanzhou Wei doesn't even have a decent weapon...... Not to mention anything else. ”

"Be careful!" So far, Shen Muqing can only tell Xiao Sa like this.

Xiao Sa nodded: "It's going to be fine!" ”

I hope so!

Shen Muqing sighed secretly in his heart and called Mingxia to bring the hot food on the stove.

Xiao Sa had just eaten two bites, and a little guy outside said, "Master, Peng County is invited!" ”

"I'm afraid it's a matter of defending the city." He put down his chopsticks and turned to leave, "I'll come when I go." ”

"Put on a cloak and go." Shen Muqing shouted to Xiao Sa, "It's cold at night." ”

Xiao Sa nodded, and Mingxia had already taken the cloak and came out.

Shen Muqing tied Xiao Sa's cloak and sent him out.
