For three days in a row, the gate of the Hou Mansion of Wu'an was closed, and on the fourth day, a team of dragon guards appeared outside the gate of the Hou Mansion, and they would escort Jiang Cheng's family to Suzhou today.

Early in the morning, Lin Shuran arrived outside the gate of Wu'anhou's mansion, because she got Xu Junze's token, she could enter the mansion with the dragon guard.

Mrs. Wu'anhou Dou and Xiqing County Lord's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law saw her, Lin Shuran did not see too much decadence and loneliness on their faces, on the contrary, both of them seemed very peaceful.

"Madam, the emperor just ordered Hou Ye to go to Suzhou temporarily, and did not say that the family must go with him, I have already found a house in the city, you and the prince will live there temporarily, I think the emperor is just a momentary anger, and when he is dissipated, he will let Hou Ye return to Beijing." Lin Shuran said to Dou.

Dou looked at Lin Shuran with a grateful face, she knew that for the Jiang family's affairs in the past few days, Princess Qing and Lin Shuran had been running, Princess Qing as the mother of the family, she could fully understand her behavior, and Lin Shuran was not very close to them, and she was willing to help, Dou was very moved.

"Mrs. Xu, thank you for your kindness, it's just that our family has decided to go to Suzhou with Hou Ye, Hou Ye has been fighting abroad for many years and has not returned, and we are also less together with him, and now the family is finally together, I don't want to be separated anymore, Hou Ye always needs someone to take care of him, and I don't worry about others!" Dou's face showed a warm warmth, as if the prosperity and decline of the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion were not important to her, she just wanted to be by her husband's side and share the weal and woe with him.

Lin Shuran was also moved by her sincere words, from Dou's firm and shining eyes, she knew that Dou would not stay in the capital, but she still tried her best to persuade her: "But the prince's health is not good, this trip to Suzhou to trek through mountains and rivers, eat and sleep, it is bound to be very hard, if the lady believes me, let the prince and the county lord stay in the capital, I will definitely protect them." ”

At this time, I saw the county lord of Xiqing walking in front of Lin Shuran, his eyes were slightly red, and he bowed deeply to her, and said with the same gratitude: "Thank you Aunt Xu for your thoughts, but my husband has decided to go to Suzhou with my in-laws, and I will also go with him. ”

"Don't worry about this, I will often go to the Qing Palace's mansion to see her!" Lin Shuran saw that the Dou family had made up their minds, and it was useless to say more, and at this moment, Jiang Cheng, the Marquis of Wu'an, strode in, and he still looked majestic and bold.

"Go back to your room and pack your things first, let's leave later!" After Jiang Cheng came in, he first said to the Dou family and the county lord of Xiqing, and the two saw that he wanted to talk to Lin Shuran alone, so they said goodbye to Lin Shuran and withdrew, and Jiang Cheng smiled and looked at Lin Shuran, who stood up again to greet him, and said, "Mrs. Xu, please sit down, you are pregnant now, if there is a mistake, the old man is a big sin." ”

"Thank you, Master Hou!" Lin Shuran was still respectful and polite in the face of Wu Anhou, who no longer had any power or status.

Regarding her performance, Jiang Cheng nodded with satisfaction, there are few people who dare to come to see him now, either afraid of being implicated or falling into the well, people are as thin as paper, and the trees are scattered, he understands this very well.

"I'm no longer a marquis, and Mrs. Xu, don't you blame me?" Jiang Cheng turned around and sat on the chair, looking at Lin Shuran with deep meaning in his eyes.

"You're talking about my fifth child, right?" Lin Shuran saw Jiang Cheng nodding after asking, she lowered her eyelids slightly and thought, then raised it again, and looked at Jiang Chengdao with a smile, "It's not so much that I blame, it's better to be puzzled, Hou Ye's personality is well known, you are loyal and upright, you have fought for the country and the people all your life, and you are also upright, you let the fifth child of my family lead the troops to besiege the mission post house twice, I think it is not due to impulse, it must be my own considerations." ”

Jiang Cheng's eyes lit up, this daughter of Mrs. Lin's family was really different, he deliberately shook his head and said: "Mrs. Xu's praise of the old man is really ashamed, I am not as good as you say, but you are not wrong, I do have my own considerations, I really want to kill those people from the Xia State Mission, especially I want to take this opportunity to get rid of that Duan Ji, with him, the border between the two countries will not be stable." ”

As he spoke, Jiang Cheng's tone became solemn, which made Lin Shuran's heart tighten, it seems that Jiang Cheng was really murderous when he asked people to lead troops to besiege the post house, maybe he expected today's ending at that time.

"But Master Hou, you still restrained yourself, you just let the soldiers besiege the post house, and didn't really let them rush in and kill those Xia people!" Lin Shuran carefully recalled the situation of Xu Mingyuan and thousands of soldiers besieging the post house, although the atmosphere was tense every time, and even showed their weapons the second time, but the two sides did not really move.

What a woman with a sharp mind, Jiang Cheng glanced at Lin Shuran seriously, and her mind was guessed by her, which is really not simple.

Jiang Cheng did not admit or deny Lin Shuran's words, but said: "I deliberately let Brother Yuan lead the troops, first, to see how much courage this kid has, and second, I know that even if the emperor blames him for this matter, he will not have a big deal, at most he will be grounded in the family, but if it is replaced by my subordinates to lead the troops, I am afraid that it will either be a loss of official or a loss of life, I, as a master, have used him, and I am sorry for that kid." ”

"Master, I don't blame you!" Xu Mingyuan suddenly walked in from outside, he had heard the conversation between Jiang Cheng and Lin Shuran just now, and he didn't feel sad at all, "I am your apprentice, I should share your worries and solve problems for you, you said, I have been a soldier in your army since the day I worshipped you as a teacher, and they are the same as Zhu Qianhu, then they are also my brothers in the same army, and I am willing to do this for you." ”

"Good boy, the master didn't accept you as an apprentice in vain!" Jiang Cheng didn't move his brows when he was punished by the knight to guard the city gate, but Xu Mingyuan's words now moved him.

Xu Mingyuan said this, Lin Shuran didn't have much to say, although it was a bit unauthentic to use a child, but from Jiang Cheng's point of view, it was his deliberate decision to protect one of the generals who could protect him, and the most important thing was that Xu Mingyuan also felt that he did the right thing after knowing it, their master and apprentice were Zhou Yu beating Huang Gai, so don't pursue it here.

Xu Mingyuan suddenly took a deep breath and walked in front of Lin Shuran with a solemn expression, then knelt down with a "plop", kowtowed to Lin Shuran, and then said to her loudly: "Mother, I know that what you said is for my good, and I also know that you really love me and treat me as my own son, but after thinking about it for a long time, I still decided to follow the master and those soldiers to Suzhou, please fulfill me!" ”

Saying that, Xu Mingyuan kowtowed hard at Lin Shuran again, and there were blood marks on his forehead in two or three times, so panicked that Lin Shuran hurriedly stopped him and helped him up, she never thought that Xu Mingyuan would temporarily change his hexagram!
