at swords' points

Xiaohua also woke up at this time, climbed out of bed and said, "The cellar is dark, but I smelled the aroma of food in it, and I touched a lot of white flour and rice, cornmeal, and a lot of vegetables!" ”

Jiang Wutong's eyes lit up, isn't there food?

The overall grain output of Wushuang country is small, and the taxes are heavy, and now it has been drought for more than half a year, and the grain merchants have long been cut off from the supply of goods.

She asked in detail where the man was, where the grain was hidden, and where the cellar was hidden.

After asking everything, Jiang Wutong smiled with great satisfaction: "You guys are awesome!" What rewards do you want? ”

Xiao Yu'er pushed Xiaohua forward: "Xiaohua, you say!" ”

Xiaohua looked a little shy at this time: "Princess, you give us food and give us a place to live, I am already very satisfied, I don't want to reward you." ”

Jiang Wutong smiled and touched Xiaohua's head, and did not dislike her lice: "Okay, since you all don't want to be rewarded, let's fulfill one of my wishes, right?" ”

Several children were a little puzzled, the third princess had food, clothing, housing and transportation every day, what other wishes did they want them to help complete?

Looking at a few ignorant children, Jiang Wutong smiled: "When this matter is dealt with, I will recognize you as my godbrother and sister, how about it?" ”

The children looked at each other, and finally Xiao Yu'er blushed and said, "Princess, isn't this okay?" You are the emperor's daughter, how can we be embarrassed to be your younger brothers and sisters? ”

"There's nothing to be embarrassed about, if you don't dislike me, a useless princess sister, you will agree, if you don't agree, you will live in the house in the future, do things for me, and I will also pay you, okay?"

Xiaohua shook her head again and again: "Princess, we don't dislike you, Xiaohua likes you!" ”

"Good! Then when you agree, you will call me sister in the future, and when the victims are settled, you will go to a recognition ceremony when you are free. Jiang Wutong made a decision on the matter, and the children didn't say anything more, their faces were full of joy.

I have to recognize this godfather, not because Jiang Wutong really lacks any brothers and sisters, but because these children help her with things, after a long time, it is inevitable that she will encounter danger, if she reports her name, maybe she can delay a little bit.

Moreover, with this name, she can cultivate these children openly! When you have your own subordinates, it will be much easier to do anything.

After saying goodbye to the children, Jiang Wutong asked the maid for an old dress to change into, and quietly went out from the back door of the princess's mansion.

Guan Zhi originally wanted to follow, but Jiang Wutong felt that he was dressed in black and had been following him, which was too conspicuous, so he asked him not to follow.

But Guan Zhi kept his task in mind, and he had to follow Jiang Wutong secretly.

Jiang Wutong pretended to agree reluctantly, saying that as long as he was not discovered, he would be fine. In fact, he snickered inwardly: "Sample, can you still take the bait?" ”

According to the location Xiaohua said, she found the dilapidated house where the grain was hidden, although the house was broken, it was not small, and in modern times, it was a proper two-bedroom, a living room, a kitchen, a bathroom and a garden.

After a closer look, there were no people near this small dilapidated house, and it was probably because he was afraid of attracting attention, so he deliberately lowered the sense of existence of this place.

Hearing Xiaohua say that the cellar was hidden in the bedroom, Jiang Wutong searched both bedrooms but didn't find it, and finally got tired of looking for it, and squatted on the ground to find the strange appearance of the floor under his feet.

She sighed at the concealment of the cellar, and carefully opened the cellar, during which she did not forget to sigh, Xiaohua is really capable, little girl, she did her a great favor at once, not to mention, such a difficult cellar, she said to open it.

If Xiaohua hadn't been here yesterday and would have been too conspicuous to come back today, she would definitely have brought Xiaohua for guidance.

It took a lot of effort to find a way to open the cellar, Jiang Wutong looked at the black cellar, touched the pockets and sleeves on her body, and there was nothingβ€”it was over, and the candle she specially brought fell into the clothes she had worn before.

She was a little panicked, in such a dark place, she didn't know if there were any rats and cockroaches or anything like that, she was most afraid of rats since she was a child.

Guan Zhi, who had been listening to the movement in the house, found that it was quiet inside, and looked down from the hole in the roof: "Princess? ”

Jiang Wutong was standing on the ladder under the cellar at the moment and didn't speak, she was still doing a psychological struggle.

Guan Zhi didn't see Jiang Wutong, nor did he hear her reply, he was a little anxious, his task wouldn't end today, right? So how will he explain when he goes back? What should he do if his relatives and friends are affected by him?

Thinking like this, he quickly turned over and got off the roof, only to see Jiang Wutong half-lying on the floor.

Jiang Wutong looked up at him, his eyes full of hesitation.

Guan Zhi was stunned, he felt that the third princess at this time was a little pitiful, it was the first time he had seen this kind of look on her face, he had always looked calm and breezy before, and he really thought that she could do anything!

He asked, "What?" The princess didn't dare to go down? ”

Guan Zhi didn't want to go down to help when he said this, the task he got was to keep an eye on Jiang Wutong, and it was okay to disgust her occasionally, in short, he couldn't help her.

Jiang Wutong ignored him, rolled his eyes, took out her acting skills at the bottom of the box, and made a painful and anxious look: "Guan Zhi, save me!" There are snakes down there, and there are many snakes...... Yes! It hurts! ”

As she spoke, she cooperated with the lines, pretending to be weak and leaning to the side, burying her face in the crook of her arm. At this time, it was inconvenient for Guan Zhi to see her ruddy face.

It's not that she's cautious, she has to tease him, it's just that this Guan Zhi is the opposite of her, and every day she can't shout like the donkey who hasn't eaten enough.

Originally, it was enough to make her anxious that there was no one under her hands, but the people sent by the other party followed her every day, adding to her heart, and greatly affecting her freedom.

Hearing this, Guan Zhi's expression became flustered, it's over! His house is really gone!

He strode over to Jiang Wutong, knelt down on one knee, and bent down to check the situation in the cellar.

Seeing that it was pitch black inside and he couldn't see anything, he had to hold Jiang Wutong's arm and take her out first: "Can you still move your legs?" ”

Jiang Wutong was angry: "No, my legs are numb......"

Guan Zhi was about to drag her out, but suddenly felt a force from his arm, and he was caught off guard and was pulled directly into the cellar.

However, Guan Zhi reacted quickly and had good skills, so he quickly held a section of the ladder, quickly found a foothold and stood up, and then looked at Jiang Wutong on the ladder with a gloomy face: "The third princess is really as rumored, she regards her subordinates as slaves and does not treat her subordinates as people." ”

Jiang Wutong heard about the deeds of the third princess for the first time, and was stunned for a moment, and then snorted coldly: "Who told you to make a mockery?" In the past few days, you have watched my drama a lot, and helped me find out whether the grain in this cellar has been transferred, which will be used as interest on the theater ticket. ”

Guan Zhi twisted his eyebrows unhappily: "What if I don't want to?" ”

"Don't want to? Now that you've heard of my reputation, you should have heard of my methods, for I've sprinkled poison on this ladder just now, and in two days you'll be itching all over your body and dying in agony! Jiang Wutong began to make up nonsense to scare Guan Zhi.

Guan Zhi's face was first frightened, and then turned into anger: "Hmph! In that case, then I'm going to pull a cushion on my back if I die! So saying, he made a gesture to draw his sword.
