Chapter 407: Great news
The affairs of the Ming Dynasty are cold and lonely, and there are countless sorrows waiting for us in our hearts.
All the way in life, slowly like autumn, silently hurrying, when there is also a time to be idle.
Where to synthesize sorrow, away from people's hearts.
All kinds of things come from the fact that we never think it is a big thing, but a little thing about our sweetheart may cause us to worry.
Lin Wanzhao had already eaten it just now, so at this moment, she was sitting opposite Shen Jing and looking at him quietly, as if she couldn't get enough of it.
Although I haven't worshiped heaven and earth and become a married couple, this feeling is right.
Shen Guan lowered his head and ate his meal while telling Lin Wanzhao to go to Ruan's Mansion after eating later, Lin Wanzhao said that he wanted to join him, saying that he would thank that Miss Ruan in person again today, and Shen Guan did not refuse.
Taking advantage of the current gap, Lin Wanzhao went to tell the Lin family to start preparing their luggage, and then they could leave home when the time was right.
Originally, the crisis of the Lin family was lifted, and everyone was already relieved of their burdens, but now they know that they will be able to go home soon, and they are even happier.
After yesterday's farce in the government, the long street where the Lin family stayed was better, and I didn't see anyone from the government today, but the aftermath of the incident was completely dissipated because of this.
Leaving the residence, the two of them often heard the people around them talking about yesterday's events along the way, and there were many speculations, and they even contacted the two families.
At this cusp, all bold conjectures are not exaggerated.
In Ruan's mansion, less than two days after the Ruan family and his party arrived in Miansi City, Luoyang actually sent another person over, and brought an extremely vague message, the letter said that Qin Han and a few others would escort Ruan Shisha back to Luoyang as soon as possible.
The steward Gong Ruhui also received the news, and the main family asked them to avoid trading for the time being, not to go out, and not to conflict with the Miansi City Mansion.
Again, the exact reasons were not specified.
Qin Han and several other Ruan family worshippers were speculating about the reason at the beginning of receiving the news, but the news came suddenly, and there was nothing major happening when they left Beijing, so they didn't have a clue for a while.
However, there is one thing that can be guessed, the worries on the Luoyang side are probably related to Miansi City or even Guanfeng County.
After Qin Han told Ruan Shuisha the news, Ruan Shuisha once thought that Qin Han and several people were working together to deceive her, until she saw her father's seal on the letter.
Ruan Shuisha didn't care what was going on, but suddenly felt extremely bored.
Seeing this, Qin Han hurriedly comforted him and said that safety should still be the priority, and Luoyang would not be untargeted.
In order not to worry the family, Ruan Shuisha didn't lose any temper, but just begged Qin Han to stay in Miansi City for a few days before leaving.
Not long after, Shen Kuang and Lin Wanzhao came to the door.
When the young man waiting at the door saw the two, he took the two straight to the lobby and went to inform the steward Gong Ruyan himself.
At that time, Gong Ruhui happened to be with Qin Han and Ruan Shisha, so after getting the news, the three of them rushed to the lobby together.
Seeing the three of them, Shen Jing and Lin Wanzhao took the first step to salute.
Because Qin Han and Gong Ruhui didn't have a clue about such a sudden situation, they wanted to see if Shen Guo had any news in his hand, so the two of them didn't care about those false courtesies, and pulled Shen Kuang aside, leaving Lin Wanzhao and Ruan Shuisha alone to sit down and gossip.
Although Ruan Shuisha and Lin Wanzhao are not so familiar, but because of Shen Qian, neither of them saw each other, Lin Wanzhao expressed his gratitude, and Ruan Shuisha hurriedly said no.
On the other side, Qin Han asked Shen Guo directly, "Boy, have you gotten any news recently, or have you sent any message to remind you of something from the outside of the building?"
Shen Jing asked strangely when he saw that Qin Han and Gong Ruhui didn't seem to be joking, and their words were vague, "Senior, but what happened? I haven't received any news recently, and you know about the Gao clan of Qizhou and the Cui clan of Qinghe."
After Shen finished speaking, Qin Han said, "Luoyang suddenly sent a message to us to go back as soon as possible, and the imperial court also sent a group of officials to General Dugu's tent to wait."
Shen Jing couldn't help but hear this
Smelling a hint of tension from Qin Han's words, he subconsciously said, "But what big moves are going to be made by the Qizhou Gao Clan and the Qinghe Cui Clan? If there is any situation on the side of Guanfeng County, most of them will be related to them."
Although Qin Han and Gong Ruhui had also thought in this direction, it would be surprising that the two families were so without warning.
Gong Ruhui said, "My guess may not only affect Miansi City, Qin Lao, our previous guess should be correct."
Qin Han also nodded when he heard this, "But what could be the matter that can make the two families so simple, the news of Luoyang must have a reason, and the letter is also deliberately avoiding talking about this matter, most likely not due to the reasons of the two families themselves." Is it an external hidden danger?"
Gong Ruyan pondered for a moment and said, "I can't rule out this possibility. The two families knew that without the support of the prince of Southern Liang, if they wanted to rely only on themselves to confront the imperial court, defeat would only be a matter of time. Then something must have happened that made them see the opportunity, which is why they are so simple."
Listening to the conversation between the two of them, Shen felt as if something big was about to happen.
Although Qin Han didn't know the specific reason for the time being, he still reminded Shen Jing and said, "Boy, no matter what the reason, for the sake of safety, you will leave Miansi City as soon as possible in the next few days. It's not that simple, it's very likely that internal and external situations are exploding."
Shen Guan didn't ask any questions when he heard this, he said, "The kid is here to ask the seniors and the palace steward about the follow-up matters, since this is the case, I will take them away as soon as possible."
Qin Han nodded when he heard this, "If you send a message to you from the outside of the building, if you can let us know, you must tell us as soon as possible, and we can also make plans as soon as possible."
Shen said, "Don't worry, senior, I will definitely tell you two if there is news."
After that, the three of them thought about the current situation and thought about many possibilities, but they all felt that it was unlikely, and finally had to give up.
On the other side, Ruan Shuisha and Lin Wanzhao didn't care about what the three of them were talking about, Ruan Shuisha simply asked Lin Wanzhao if there was any good place to go in Miansi City.
Lin Wanzhao really ran a lot of places in Miansi City because she was running around on weekdays, so she recommended a few to Ruan Shuisha, but Lin Wanzhao did not forget to tell Ruan Shuisha to pay attention to safety.
The friendship between the daughter's family was established at a speed that could not even be reached for a drink, and after the two talked happily for a while, Shen Jing and the three of them sat down separately after chatting.

Qizhou, Gao's mansion.
A few days ago, the Gao clan learned about the results of the front-line battle through secret channels, and Jiuquan City was trampled by the hooves of Rouran, except for Liu Shen, the general of Jiuquan, the remaining 30,000 troops were annihilated.
In the current dilemma, the defeat at the front is undoubtedly great news for the Gao and Cui clans.
Soon after Gao got the news, he sent someone to inform the Cui family to discuss countermeasures together, and because of the severance of the news with Cui Hao, the Cui family has not received the news for the time being.
In addition, the Gao family also ordered someone to find the county lieutenant of Guanfeng County, Hou Jing.
Hou Jing has never been a good stubble, and the Gao family has long been clear in the process of contact for such a long time.
Due to the failure of the plan of the prince of Nanliang, a group of people, including himself, were taken down, so the two families suddenly lost a big help, and the United Hou Jing was actually forced to do so.
It was inevitable that the imperial court would take action against the two major families, and at this opportunity, the three parties unanimously agreed to raise troops without too many concerns.
In addition, the Qinghe Cui clan also contacted his in-law clan, the Jinyang Wang clan, in advance, hoping that the Wang clan, which had a greater influence in the Central Plains, could also secretly help them.
Regarding this matter, the Jinyang Wang family behaved very cautiously, and the Wang family only sent the eldest prince Wang Chunzhi to visit the Cui family, and so far there is still no result between the two sides.
In fact, the Cui family also understands that the risk that needs to be taken in this matter is too great, especially since the Wang family is located in the Central Plains, and the power of the imperial court can be easily reached.
Without the support of the Wang family, the Cui family had no choice, they could only hope that the Wang family could make some trouble in the Central Plains and interfere with the court's sight.
Therefore, after the three parties set a time, they went back to prepare.
Because the stakes are so high, they can't afford not to pay attention to it, so no one dares to be careless.
At the same time, the Gao clan of Qizhou also sent another person to go to Miansi City.

When Shen Kuang and Lin Wanzhao left from Ruan's Mansion, they had already decided to let Steward Songfeng and Uncle Chongshan leave with the Lin family tomorrow morning at the latest, and the two of them would leave as soon as possible.
As soon as the two returned home, the steward of Songfeng hurriedly came over and said that a masked man had suddenly arrived, saying that he had come to find Shen Jing.
Lin Songfeng told Shen Guo that the person said that he was the messenger of the outer building, and he would only say the content when he saw Shen Qian, and Lin Chongshan was currently accompanying him in the lobby.
Hearing that it was the messenger from the outer building, Shen Jing couldn't help but think of the words that Qin Han had asked before.
Lin Songfeng and the others were actually not afraid after hearing that this person was from the outer building, but it seemed that the person had a serious face, and they were inevitably worried about what danger Shen would have.
Shen Guo comforted Lin Songfeng and Lin Wanzhao and said that it was okay, and the person who came just came to deliver the letter.
When Shen Guan walked into the lobby, Lin Chongshan retreated without asking much after seeing it, and Lin Songfeng and Lin Wanzhao also helped Shen Guan close the door.
It was the first time that Shen Guo had dealt with the messenger outside the building, but after being told by Jiang Ning, he could also distinguish the authenticity of his identity, and there was no problem with this person.
After seeing Shen Jing, the man immediately told Shen Jing the news he knew.
The front line was defeated and Jiuquan City was breached, and it was very likely that the Gao clan of Qizhou and the Cui clan of Qinghe would take the opportunity to raise troops, so Jiang Ning sent a messenger to tell Shen Guo to leave Miansi City with the Lin family as soon as possible, the sooner the better.
When the news arrived, the messenger left.
And Shen Kuang didn't recover from the news for a long time, and Jiuquan City was actually attacked by Rouran.
Later, seeing that the messenger had gone away, Lin Wanzhao, who had been waiting outside for a long time, walked in.
Before Lin Wanzhao could open his mouth to ask Shen Qian, he said, "Steward Songfeng, Uncle Chongshan, the matter is urgent at the moment, you should quickly pack up your things and strive to leave Miansi City today."
After Shen Jing finished speaking, the two of them immediately went down to give orders without even asking, because they knew that Shen Jing would not say these words for no reason.
Lin Wanzhao saw Shen Jing's serious face, so she asked with some concern, "What happened?"
Shen said, "The northern border was defeated, and Jiuquan City was broken by Rouran."
Although Lin Wanzhao is just a woman, she also knows what it means.
After saying that, Shen Jing continued: "This news should be blocked at the moment, so it must not be spread outside. Most people don't know such big news, but there will definitely be rumors in the upper big families, and the Qizhou Gao clan and the Qinghe Cui clan are very likely to take the opportunity to rebel, and it is just recently, so I will let Uncle Chongshan and them leave as soon as possible."
Hearing this, Lin Wanzhao clenched Shen Jing's hand and said softly, "Don't worry, there is still time, it will be fine."
"Hopefully it's still time."
At the same time, the Gao clan from Qizhou also rushed to Miansi City not long ago.
