Xia Jing rubbed her temples and made an excuse: "I had a bad dream last night, and I woke up today with a little heart palpitations, and I was always worried that something bad would happen." Therefore, it is better to let Xiao Wu stay by my side to rest assured. ”

The worried look vividly expressed a motherly heart.

Hongmei wanted to persuade her to relax, but thinking of the current situation, she swallowed back the words that came to her mouth. Somehow, I also felt uneasy in my heart.

"The slave maid will go to the study and call the fifth master over."

When she was about to go out, Xia Jing stopped her again: "By the way, go and inform the housekeeper, just say that I have something to find him." ”

The two big maids didn't know what the princess had to do when she called the housekeeper over, but the two of them didn't ask much.

The affairs of the entire Yuzhou Courtyard were piled up on the housekeeper, and he was very busy, busy like a spinning top.

Informed by Hongmei, he trotted all the way to the main courtyard.

"The old slave invited the princess, I don't know what you have to tell the old slave to come over?" Zeng Yan wiped his sweat and looked at Xia Jing who was sitting at the top.

"I guess the prince will arrive here tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, I want to ask you how the supplies in the other courtyard are packed?"

Zeng Yan was surprised in his heart, he had just received the news that the prince would arrive tomorrow, but he didn't expect the princess to estimate quite accurately.

replied honestly: "It's almost packed, just wait for today's loading, and tomorrow when the prince arrives, you can put on the horse and set off." ”

"Then don't grind, let people hurry up and load the horses into the cart, the materials are tightly loaded, and the amount that can be loaded is as much as it can be."

With that, Xia Jing stood up and walked out.

Zeng Yan looked up at her in surprise, and quickly followed: "Princess, ......what do you mean?"

This said that the wind is the nature of the rain, which made him a little unable to keep up with the rhythm.

Xia Jing went out and instructed Bai Mei, who was about to follow, to pack up her belongings, listened to the housekeeper's words, and said without looking back: "Don't do things step by step, one by one, in this situation, we should be prepared in advance, load all the supplies, and cover the horses, so that we can deal with emergencies at any time." ”

When the two of them came to the side courtyard, the subordinates arranged by Zeng Yan had already begun to load various supplies into the carriage.

Xia Jing checked the materials, most of them were valuable items, such as cloth, silk, jade ornaments, gold and silver, etc., and there were also a lot of grains and medicinal materials.

Some tents for wild survival have also been prepared, but not much. Then there are the pots and pans, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar that were indispensable for travel in ancient times.

The housekeeper was relatively well prepared, Xia Jing turned around and entered the warehouse in the side yard, the shelves inside were almost empty, there were still some empty baskets left in the corner, and some wooden furniture, it must be inconvenient to flee these things.

Besides, now the carriages and horses in the prefectures and cities are all nervous, and everyone is eager to have more carriages and horses at home to transport all their wealth away.

The palace is no exception, and the carriages and horses that can be used, except for the carriage that the master wants to sit, are all pulled to load the goods.

Xia Jing pointed to the basket and small stool in the corner, and said to Zeng Yan, who followed up: "These baskets may be of great use on the way to escape, and these small sticks can be used to sit on the road to rest, bring them all." ”

Zeng Yan swept the corners of his eyes, and his face was embarrassed: "Princess, these things are not valuable, and you can buy a lot of them for one or two silver when you get to the place in the future." Moreover, these things took up space, and there was no place to pile them up on the wagon. ”

Xia Jing sighed: "Put them on, you can put them in the basket, and then hang the basket outside the carriage, neither blocking things nor taking up space." ”

Zeng Yan pursed his lower lip, and wanted to say that the rich and noble families fled who still lacked this little thing, and the only people who cared about this worthless object were the ordinary people who lived on the land.

But considering his identity, he finally nodded and agreed.

"The old slave will have people come and move these items out."

Xia Jing nodded, and when the housekeeper went out to call someone, she found that there were a few iron hoes and pickaxes in the other corner, which should have been used by the gardener.

Not to mention putting it into the space, maybe it will be useful in the future.

Coming out of the warehouse, I saw Xiao Wu Li Chengmu coming in a hurry, "Mother, I just went to your yard, I knew that you were here, I chased after you again, what is there to order in such a hurry?" ”

"Can't I call you over if it's okay?" Xia Jing gently pushed her son who was blocking in front of her, walked to the tree next to her, and then asked, "The fourth child is not with you?" ”

Li Chengmu squinted his eyes and looked at the blue sky, retracted his gaze and looked at Xia Jing: "My fourth brother went out yesterday and hasn't come back yet, does the concubine have something to do with him?" ”

Xia Jing snorted coldly: "I'm afraid that he won't be able to keep up with the big team, the country will be broken, and he, as a descendant of the royal family, still has the heart to go outside to wave at this point, it's really ......"

Xia Jing sighed, forget it, it's not her own son, what's wrong with him.

Originally, he wanted to finish lunch, so he took the convoy out of the city first, but Zeng Yan was loyal to King Qian, saying that he would wait until King Qian before leaving.

From the time the imperial court abandoned the capital, its control over local power began to decline, and similarly, the emperor's deterrence would be greatly reduced.

Yuzhou Thorn Shi Cen Zhu dared to arrange his family members to escape in advance before the emperor Lao'er, which is the best proof.

It is not known whether the emperor will listen to his orders if the emperor fled south, and the local troops in the south will listen to his orders.

For the emperor Lao'er who wanted to regain the lost land in his lifetime after moving south, Xia Jing felt that it was simply wishful thinking.

I just don't know if after the emperor's nephew moved the capital to the south when he arrived, and found that everything was not going as expected, would he be so angry that he vomited three liters of blood directly?

Zeng Yan Zhongqian refused to take the first step, so Xia Jing retreated: "Now that people's hearts are fluctuating, there must be many people in the city who have begun to move their families out of the city." ”

"The family out of the city must be someone who has nothing to worry about, we don't care what others do, but the old slave will definitely wait until the prince arrives and then go together!" Zeng Yan did not enter the oil and salt, and insisted on his beliefs.

Xia Jing really wanted to burst out in her heart, if it weren't for the safety and comfort on the way to escape, she would have to be constrained by this minion.

I really want to do extraordinary things at all times, kill him directly, and take the large army to escape the famine first.

However, when she first arrived, neither King Qian's servants nor guards would listen to her as a woman in the house.

It seems that he has to find some way to subdue a group of his own henchmen.

"I believe that the housekeeper has arranged for people to pay attention to the movements of the four city gates since he entered the city, so do you know that early this morning, Cen Tingshi's family has quietly gone out of the city in disguise?"

Zeng Yan heard this, and frowned slightly: "There is indeed a convoy out of the city at the South City Gate today, but it may be a rich family in the city, not necessarily the family members of the assassin Shi." ”

He probably didn't believe it himself.

The corners of Xia Jing's mouth were slightly hooked, but her eyes gradually became indifferent: "Whether the family members of the assassin have left the city, let's not dispute for the time being, this princess believes that according to your ability, you will be able to find out in less than an hour." ”

Zeng bowed solemnly and bowed: "The princess is too famous." ”

Xia Jing snorted coldly: "Fucheng has a large population, if the emperor's team arrives tomorrow, and the people don't flee if they know that there are pursuing soldiers?" ”

Zeng Yan: "This ......"
