Hearing this, Pei Anlin almost lost his balance.

He raised his head in astonishment, trying to read a bit of a joke on Yue Rong's face.

However, Yue Rong smiled bitterly: "General, you don't have to look at your subordinates. Your elder brother has already followed His Highness to arrest people one by one."

"With so many people, I'm afraid the prison is not enough." Pei Anlin didn't know what he thought of and sneered.

And Yue Rong nodded and said in a deep voice: "Indeed, that's why His Highness said that only the officials from aristocratic families will be arrested, and the common people will not be arrested."

"The people will know about this because some people deliberately spread it." Yue Rong explained, "It will not help if we arrest them."

After hearing this, Pei Anlin nodded slightly: "That's right."

"I wonder who you have arrested?"

"My subordinates don't know either." After Yue Rong said these five words, he felt the disgust in Pei Anlin's eyes.

He was also helpless and whispered: "My subordinate was called to guard the gate of the Pei family early in the morning. His Highness said that the princess must not know about this matter! If the princess knows about it, he will Peel off our skin!"

"What's so mysterious? I can't even know?"

Just after Yue Rong said this, Gu Ning poked his head from the hanging flower door and looked curiously at the people who were talking.

For a moment, several people's bodies froze.

Even though she was the eldest princess, she was also frightened by Gu Ning's sudden appearance.

But the eldest princess was the eldest princess. She was the first to come back to her senses, stared at Gu Ning and said, "How long have you been here?"

"Just now." Gu Ning said innocently, "I saw you all crowded here, so I came over. What is going on? Why don't you let me hear it too?"

Pei Anlin coughed suddenly and pushed Yue Rong in front of Gu Ning with one hand.

"I don't know either. I heard that Yue Rong sent imperial troops to surround our Pei family, so I came over to inquire."

After hearing this, Gu Ning raised his eyebrows and looked at Yue Rong with interest.

Yue Rong secretly cursed Pei Anlin in his heart, but Pei Anlin always adhered to the purpose of dead Taoist friends but not poor Taoists, and said nothing: "Guard Yue, why didn't you say anything?"

"Subordinate..." Yue Rong closed his eyes and broke the jar and said, "I don't know, either. These are His Highness's orders. If the princess wants to know, she might as well ask His Highness."

Gu Ning nodded, but did not embarrass Yue Rong.

She indeed only heard that sentence, but when she saw a few people looking at her uneasily, she began to think about it, fearing that this matter had a lot to do with her.

Gu Ning looked at a few people and suddenly stood there and refused to leave.

"Then what were you talking about just now? What can't you let me know?"

Pei Anlin took a step back and continued to let Yue Rong face Gu Ning.

Cold sweat broke out on Yue Rong's forehead. Regardless of the fear of the eldest princess's majesty, he immediately cast his eyes for help on the eldest princess.

After thinking for a moment, the eldest princess stepped forward and patted Gu Ning on the shoulder.

"When did grandma lie to you?" the eldest princess asked.

"Grandma has never lied to me." Gu Ning shook her head.

If she could say that the person she trusted the most in the world was the eldest princess, she knew from the beginning that the eldest princess would be on her side unconditionally.

Hearing this, the eldest princess smiled with satisfaction: "As expected of you, you are my Ning'er."

"Since you believe me, then don't ask." The eldest princess said, "If we don't tell, it's for your own good."

Gu Ning curled her lips secretly. Even if it was for her own good, she still wanted to know what was going on.

But in front of the eldest princess, she didn't dare to say what was in her heart. She could only nodded and said gloomily: "I understand."

Whenever Gu Ning showed this look, Pei Anlin couldn't help but feel soft.

As soon as Pei Anlin opened his mouth, the eldest princess stabbed his stomach hard with his elbow. He felt the pain and quickly covered his stomach. The words that came to his mouth were swallowed directly because of this elbow.

The eldest princess looked at Gu Ning with kind eyes: "Be obedient, grandma won't tell you this, it must be for your own good."

Gu Ning sighed, and finally agreed: "You said so, I will definitely not ask."

After saying that, she turned around and walked back quickly.

Seeing Gu Ning's appearance, Yue Rong just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the eldest princess faintly say: "Don't worry too early."

"Aunt Gui, follow her." The eldest princess ordered, "Don't let Chunyu take advantage of the opportunity and leave."

Aunt Gui was elusive. As soon as she heard the words of the eldest princess, she nodded immediately: "Don't worry, I will keep an eye on Chunyu carefully and never give her a chance to slip out."

Yue Rong was stunned, but Pei Anlin was used to this: "Yes, if you don't keep a close eye on Chunyu, Ning'er will definitely know what's going on outside."

Nowadays, several people have one purpose - to keep Gu Ning a secret until the matter is over.

While Pei Anlin breathed a sigh of relief, he saw that Xie Yan was becoming more and more pleasing to his eyes. He did not forget to say to the eldest princess: "Your Highness is indeed a careful person."

"If I don't pay attention to Ning'er's affairs, how can I trust Ning'er to him?" The eldest princess chuckled lightly, turned to Yue Rong and said, "Now that we all know, we will naturally cooperate with you. "

"From today on, our guards from the Pei Mansion will also be guarding the area and will never let any bad rumors spread to Ning'er."

After saying that, the eldest princess looked at Pei Anlin again: "Just let people keep the Pei family safe. Before the wedding, let Ning'er stay in the yard peacefully and not go anywhere."

Pei Anlin couldn't bear it: "Ning'er likes to be free most. If we trap her in the yard, wouldn't it..."

"Since His Highness can take these details into consideration, he will naturally not ignore Ning'er's feelings." The eldest princess chuckled, looking like she had a chance to win, "Just wait and see."

Pei Anlin glanced at Yue Rong suspiciously, and saw that Yue Rong also had a curious face, which instantly made him give up his intention to get information from Yue Rong.

Back in the courtyard, Gu Ning's eyes flashed.

Chunyu walked in quickly: "Princess Princess, what are your orders?"

"See if Aunt Gui is outside?" Gu Ning blinked at Chunyu.

Hearing this, Chunyu's eyes were filled with astonishment.

But soon, Chunyu came to her senses. She quickly stood in front of the window and looked outside through the gap in the window.

I saw Grandma Gui giving instructions at the entrance of the courtyard.

"Aunt Gui is here." Chunyu whispered.

Gu Ning snorted softly: "I knew it! On the surface, my grandma believed me, but in fact, she sent Aunt Gui to stare at me! As long as we make the slightest move, she can notice it!"

When Chunyu heard this, her eyes were full of surprise: "What happened? Why is Aunt Gui staring at you?"

"I want to know too." Gu Ning held her chin and said in a faint voice, "What happened to make grandma so nervous? Even my uncle didn't dare to tell me."

Gu Ning rubbed his chin, a cold look flashed in his eyes: "Go and find out!"

After finishing speaking, Gu Ning lowered her voice again: "Don't let Aunt Gui find out!"

Chunyu nodded repeatedly and walked out quickly.

However, just after avoiding Aunt Gui, Chunyu was stopped by Yue Rong.

"Miss Chunyu." After seeing Chunyu, Yue Rong smiled coquettishly, feeling extremely guilty.

No matter what, it would be untenable for him to stop Chunyu.

It was just that he had a mission on his shoulders. Even though Yue Rong was extremely guilty, he had to stop Chunyu at this moment.

When Chunyu saw Yue Rong, she snorted coldly: "What on earth is worthy of you hiding like this? What are you planning in your hearts?"

Hearing this, Yue Rong sighed deeply: "Miss Chunyu, I don't want to hide it from the princess, but this is His Highness's order!"

Chunyu sneered in response, and Yue Rong trembled in his heart, but he had to bite the bullet and said to Chunyu: "Even if you don't believe me or His Highness, you should believe in the eldest princess and general Pei."

"I know." Chunyu held the sword coldly and replied word by word, "But I can't disobey the princess's order. The princess asked me to investigate this matter, so naturally I will investigate this matter."

Yue Rong's eyebrows almost fell out of worry. He wished he could faint as soon as he closed his eyes and kicked his legs. It was better than being questioned by Chun Yu.

Being pushed up by Chunyu, Yue Rong was sweating profusely from behind.

"Stop talking so much." Chunyu impatiently drew out his sword, "Let's have a fight. If I lose, I will go back. If you lose, let me go."

Yue Rong smiled and said in a low voice: "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you."

After saying this, Yue Rong walked aside.

Behind Yue Rong, several forbidden soldiers were standing there with complicated expressions. Without exception, they all had weapons in their hands.

Chunyu snorted: "Shameless!"

Yue Rong faced the insult and touched his nose angrily: "Shameless is shameless."

It is better to be scolded for being shameless than to be sent to the border.

Including Yue Rong, there are seven people.

If there was only Yue Rong, it would be easy for Chunyu to beat him.

However, there were several more people now. Chunyu only needed to take a look and knew that he would definitely lose this game.

She stared at Yue Rong and snorted coldly: "Let's fight another day."

After that, Chunyu left.

Yue Rong sighed deeply, feeling lucky to have escaped.

As soon as he turned around, he met the complicated eyes of his brothers.

"What are you looking at?" Yue Rong said angrily, "If this matter is not handled well, not to mention me, even you will have to be sent to the border! The border knows, right? Nowadays, a forecourt is being built. ! We will work as coolies as soon as we go, are you willing?"

Hearing this, several people immediately withdrew their eyes.

They don't want to go to the border, that's what the exiled hard laborers do.

Yue Rong watched the people leave and breathed a sigh of relief.

However, he didn't know that Chunyu had already drilled through a hole and arrived outside Pei's house easily.

Looking at the hurried passers-by outside and the imperial troops that could be seen from time to time, Chunyu frowned.
