193. The return of the war king
"Ling Yi, after entering the city, take a detour, make sure there is no tail behind you, and then go back to Qingfeng Lane."
"Yes."
After Xiao Muze finished his final order, he put down the carriage curtain and whispered a few more words to Liu Xinning intently.
After confirming that there was nothing to avoid for the rest of the words, Xiao Muze let Chun Nuan enter the carriage.
Chun Nuan looked at Liu Xinning and Xiao Muze's solemn expressions, and knew that something big must have happened, so she just waited quietly.
Back in the house in Qingfeng Lane, Ling Yi arranged for a guard to hurry up to find the War King.
Xiao Muze began to arrange the defense of the house, carefully checking whether there were any omissions.
And Liu Xinning immediately wrote a letter, put it in a small box, and handed it to Chun Nuan with her own hands.
"Aunt Chun Nuan, if something really happens, you must find a place to hide. Those people's targets are me and my cousin, and it doesn't matter if you have more than one or one less. And if anything really happens to me, you must send this to my mother, and let her hand it over to the Holy One herself. Liu Xinning said solemnly.
In that letter, he wrote about the discovery of the salt mine, the possibility of a gold mine in the dream, and the speculation that the five princes would come to extinguish it.
The last point is what she speculated without evidence, relying solely on the description in the book.
However, if she is dead, what are you afraid of framing the name of the prince?
If it is confirmed that it was done by the five princes, they can naturally take revenge.
If it is not verified, based on her guess, the fifth prince will have to work hard if he wants to get out of it.
Saying she wasn't kind, she admitted.
However, it is already a fact that she is on the opposite side of Wu Zhaoyi's family.
Anyway, that guess won't kill the five princes. If he is really innocent, it is just a matter of trying to get out.
"No, county lord, the servant can't accept this order." Chun Nuan didn't take the box, but said with a smile: "If the county lord has something, the maid will definitely die with the county lord." ”
"What are you doing with death? If you die, who will tell me? I'm still waiting for you to avenge me, and go to my grave and burn paper to tell me. ”
Liu Xinning guessed that Chun Nuan would have this kind of thought.
After all, Chun Nuan helped her block the sword last time. This time, if she is really in danger, can Chun Nuan watch it?
"The person I trust the most is you. If you don't help me, I'll die. Liu Xinning said in an accentuated tone.
Chun Nuan's look hesitated.
Liu Xinning made persistent efforts and finally persuaded Chun Nuan to respond.
"But don't worry, if that's the case, the servant will accompany you after helping you take revenge."
Chun Nuan said solemnly while taking the box.
Liu Xinning was a little helpless, but she didn't say anything.
Anyway, it's just a precautionary measure now, and it doesn't necessarily work.
Even if she used it, she also wrote the arrangements for Chun Nuan in the box, presumably the eldest princess would take care of it.
After Liu Xinning made these arrangements, she stayed in the house and didn't leave the door.
At such a sensitive moment, she can't help much, but she can not hold back.
And Xiao Muze no longer goes out of the house, and just seriously checks the protection matters several times a day.
Day after day, and finally in the evening of the third day, the War King returned to the mansion with his guards.
"Uncle, uncle, I'm so scared."
Hearing Chun Nuan say that after the king of war arrived in the front yard, Liu Xinning immediately rushed away.
When she saw the War King, her expression was already panicked.
Of course, there are real worries about her, but there are also things that she shows to the war king.
After all, she Liu Xinning is a little girl who has just turned sixteen, how can she not be afraid of something that may kill her?
However, when the war king looked at Liu Xinning's expression, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, he always felt that there was some disobedience?
But he didn't allow the king to think deeply, and he saw his son's eyes full of distress.
Tut-tut, the war king only felt that he had no eyes to see.
"Don't be afraid, my uncle is back, so I'm not afraid." The king of war still hurriedly comforted Liu Xinning.
"Uh-huh, uh-huh." Liu Xinning just nodded vigorously.
But Xiao Muze stared at Liu Xinning carefully, "Cousin, I haven't seen you for three days, why do I think you have lost so much weight?" ”
Liu Xinning smiled, but didn't say anything.
In the past few days, she has been busy consolidating her kung fu in the main room, busy dispensing more poisons, and she hardly even has time to sleep.
It's no wonder if you're not thin!
"Ning'er is a girl in the end, she is timid, and she must be worried about these things. Don't ask. ”
The war king looked at his son's useless question, and looked at him with hatred.
Xiao Muze glanced at Liu Xinning suspiciously.
Lose sleep over something? Liu Xinning worried?
It might be a little worried, but it doesn't come to that point, right?
After all, she had her own father buy her own murderer.
If he guessed correctly, at this time, Liu Xinning must be preparing, right?
Xiao Muze thought about it, but still didn't ask any more.
And the war king had already asked urgently: "You can tell me about the situation." The messenger only says that there is something very important about life, but he does not know what it is. When I heard this, I hurried back. Thanks to Yongliu County, it is close to Zhaoyang City. ”
The Pinghe Army of Yongliu County is more than 200 miles away from Zhaoyang City, and if it is fast, it will generally only take one day.
However, because it was the first time for the escort to go to the Pinghe Army, the route was not familiar, and they needed to inquire a lot, so they wasted some time on the road.
And after he arrived in the Pinghe Army, it happened that the King of War took people out hunting, so it took some time to find people and others.
Therefore, the war king only rushed back today.
"Yes."
Lord Xiao Muze said, Liu Xinning added, and said everything about the salt mine and the gold mine and their speculation.
When the war king heard this, his face became serious.
"You have a point. If it were just to sell illicit salt, they would not dare to do anything to you. But, it's a salt mine. No matter how small a mine is, it is also a mine. Not to mention, there may also be gold mines. Okay, I know that, don't worry. We don't need people from the yamen, I'll let Lao Zhang's garrison come for a visit. He was stationed near Zhaoyang County, and asked him to choose some cronies to take over the Daqingshan side. Ning'er, it's time for you to write a letter. On the Yamen side, I'll ask that Zhu Junshou to write a recital. As for the gold mine, let Lao Zhang's people find out. ”
The King of War arranged things in a clear manner.
"Hey."
Liu Xinning happily agreed, bowed, and walked to the backyard to write a letter.
And Xiao Muze could only watch his father go out of the limelight.
"It's still my father who is powerful, and my cousin will smile in a few words." Xiao Muze said a little sourly.
"That's it. Tell me how you're getting along. The War King said disappreciatively.
"Let's get back to that, let's settle these things first. Lest my cousin worry all the time. ”
Xiao Muze wanted to help Liu Xinning solve the problem.
"People say that they forgot their mother-in-law when they married their daughter-in-law. It's good that you haven't married yet, so you're only thinking about helping your sweetheart. ”
While making fun of Xiao Muze, the war king got up and made arrangements.
