Lin Shuran turned sideways in the direction of the voice, her voice was still so gentle and credible, she nodded and said: "Yes, your grandfather has helped us, we are just repaying the favor, Miss Xiao, although rest assured, we have no malicious intentions." ”

Hearing Lin Shuran's reassurance, Xiao Yanyan was a little relieved, and thanked Lin Shuran very sincerely, they didn't care about their personal safety to save their five sisters and brothers, if they were discovered by the officers and soldiers, it would be equivalent to rebellion, and they shouldn't suspect them, Xiao Yanyan suddenly felt ashamed again.

Soon, Xu Junze and his entourage arrived at the gate of the city, and the officers and soldiers guarding the city gate were not small, and all the people and vehicles that passed through the city gate had to be searched, and if there was no road guide identity, they would be arrested directly.

Honggu dressed the two young ladies of the Xiao family as older, and their clothes were also the maids of ordinary rich families, and Honggu also deliberately made their eyebrows heavier, and even used a special method to point a few small freckles on Xiao Yanyan's face, so that even if the officers and soldiers compared the wanted portraits, they would not be able to see it.

When it was Xu Junze's turn to cross the city gate, four or five officers and soldiers surrounded them, two of them checked their identities and guides, and others checked the two vehicles pulling cloth that followed behind.

Xiao Yanyan and her sister looked a little nervous, Honggu's eyes signaled them not to worry, and Lin Shuran also put her hand on their hand as if unintentionally, hoping to give them some strength.

At this moment, an officer and soldier opened the curtain of the car, because he wanted to compare the portrait with the Xiao family's anti-thief, so his tone was not very good and asked Lin Shuran to take off the light veil covering his face.

Although Uncle Chu had already informed him that his wife was in an emergency and it was not suitable to see anyone, the officers and soldiers in charge of the search did not care about this, Lin Shuran didn't want to cause too much dispute, so he cooperated and ripped off the scarf on his face, and when he saw that Lin Shuran's swollen eyes were a little terrifying, the officer and soldier quickly lowered the curtain in fright, and even Xiao Yanyan's sisters didn't take a second look.

"There's nothing in this car, you can go!" The officer took two steps back and said to his comrades who were inspecting together.

Just as the coachman was urging the horses forward, a man who had been standing in a conspicuous position at the entrance of the city walked over with a calm face, his eagle-like eyes were always staring at the city gate, and he also saw the frightened faces of the officers and soldiers who were in charge of checking Lin Shuran's carriage just now, so he walked up and said coldly: "Wait a minute! ”

The carriage was originally going to go, but it was suddenly called to stop, Lin Shuran and Xiao Yanyan were all nervous, Xu Junze sat on the horse today, but looked at the man who stopped the carriage again with a calm face.

Uncle Chu walked forward with a smile and a very eye-catching look, and explained the situation in the carriage to the man, and even the officer and soldier just now said to him with a flattering smile that there was a woman with a strange disease in the carriage.

The man just snorted coldly, and lifted the curtain to check it a little rudely, just as he saw Lin Shuran about to put on a veil under the sideways care of the two maids, just like his subordinates said, this woman had a strange disease, and it looked a little terrible, he also put it down in disgust, and finally waved his hand to let the carriage that Lin Shuran was riding on.

And the remaining officers and soldiers who checked the cloth truck did not find anything abnormal, so Lin Shuran and his party walked out of the city gate safely, but when their carriage just turned out of the sight of the officers and soldiers at the city gate, another team of people and horses rushed over very arrogantly, and the only one who rode on the big horse was Duan Yunhao, the prince of the Regent Mansion of the Xia Kingdom.

He arrogantly inquired about the results of the investigation, and seemed to be very impatient, and directly ordered the arrest of all the children of the right age in the city of Xuanyang, and it was bound to find the children of the Xiao family in the shortest possible time.

Lin Shuran and Xu Junze quickened their pace as soon as they left the gate of Xuanyang City, and they didn't stop until a relatively safe place, and they didn't know that Yunhao had arrived in Xuanyang City at this time, and they were still arresting people everywhere in the city to create panic.

Coming out of the city gate just now, as soon as he avoided the officers and soldiers, a young master of the Xiao family got out of the box stool where Lin Shuran was sitting, and at the same time, the other two young masters of the Xiao family also climbed out from under the car, and when they crossed the city gate, they did not hide in the car where the cloth was placed, but hid under the car.

"Where are you going next?" Seeing that it was relatively safe now, Lin Shuran asked Xiao Yanyan what their next plan was, after all, his group was going to Jingshi, which was where Xiao Yanyan and the others had just escaped, and there was no reason to go back.

Xiao Yanyan told Lin Shuran that she wanted to take her younger brothers and sisters to find their grandfather and second brother, in order to protect the five of them, their father, mother, third uncle and sister-in-law were all dead, and they could only rely on them if they found the remaining relatives.

"But now there are too many officers and soldiers who have arrested you, and it is too obvious that you are walking outside with your younger brothers and sisters, and now there are wanted portraits of you everywhere, and if there is no one to protect you, you will probably lose your lives if you don't see your relatives." Lin Shuran said to her.

Xiao Yanyan also bit her lower lip in distress and sadness, Lin Shuran was right, although their sister and brother were lucky to meet Lin Shuran and his party this time, but the next time they encountered danger, they may not be so lucky, the three younger brothers are the incense of the Xiao family, she must protect their lives and hand them over safely to her grandfather.

As if sensing Xiao Yanyan's distress and overwhelm, Lin Shuran suggested to her: "It's not good for you to move too much now, it's better for you to find a safe place to hide first, and then look for your grandfather when the limelight passes or the wind is not so tight, as long as people survive, they will always be able to get through the difficulties." ”

Xiao Yanyan is the eldest of five children, and along the way to escape, her younger brothers and sisters also listened to her, and they all looked at her at this time to see how she decided.

As the eldest lady of the Guogong Mansion, Xiao Yanyan is also a brave and decisive girl, after thinking about it, she felt that Lin Shuran was right, only protecting the lives of her younger brothers and sisters first is the most important, otherwise even if they walked out of Xuanyang City, they would not live to see their families at the moment, there were too many officers and soldiers chasing them, but where could they flee to? Where is it safe for them?

Xu Junze heard the conversation between Lin Shuran and Xiao Yanyan, he gave Uncle Chu a look, Uncle Chu immediately understood, and then walked towards Lin Shuran and said: "Madam, I have a friend who is Orion, and their husband and wife live in a remote rural place, and they live by hunting all year round, and they are loyal and honest, why don't you let Miss Xiao and them go there for a while to avoid the limelight?" ”
