The widowed sister-in-law is embarrassed, she criticizes the villain like he only wants to be a love

Yan Wen, Yan Wu, and Yan Huai wanted to catch up but were stopped by Jiang Ci.

"They are here to investigate the situation. There are probably people nearby to help them. Don't act rashly when you are not sure about the enemy's situation."

Yan Ersheng said solemnly: "It seems that these refugees are targeting our team. We need to inform the seventh uncle and the village chief about this immediately."

Jiang Ci secretly thought, tonight seems to be another unfair night.

"Second uncle, you go back first, I will inform the seventh uncle and the village chief."

After saying this, Jiang Ci walked straight towards the seventh uncle's family.

Yan Ersheng, Yan Wen, Yan Wu, and Yan Huai walked back to their camp. Yan Shu looked behind them but did not see Jiang Ci.

"Where is Jiang Ciren?"

Yan Ersheng threw the firewood on his shoulders next to the fire and explained to Yan Shu: "When we came back, we found a few sneaky refugees. We were worried that these guys would come to cause trouble late at night. Erlang went to inform the village chief and them."

Yan Shu frowned and finally left Nanwei Mansion. There won't be any trouble tonight, right?

Jiang Ci walked up to his seventh uncle, and Yan Fugui happened to be discussing things with him.

Uncle Qi openly asked, "Do you have anything to explain when Erlang comes over?"

After Jiang Ci told the two of them what they had just encountered, the refugees peeping nearby, the expressions of the seventh uncle and Yan Fugui darkened.

The seventh uncle sighed: "There were tornadoes and tornadoes all the way. Many of the refugees' belongings were almost lost on the road. Many people started to make wrong decisions when they were desperate."

Yan Fugui said solemnly: "How about we stop resting tonight and inform everyone to continue on our way?"

The seventh uncle shook his head: "Our team has too many possessions, so I'm afraid we will be targeted by others. Even if we continue on our way, they will follow us."

"What should we do? Our team only has 500 strong men. Even if we seize a batch of weapons from Panfeng Village, if the opponent has a large number of people, we will still be outnumbered."

The seventh uncle looked at Jiang Ci: "Erlang, do you have any ideas?"

Jiang Ci said: "The number of refugees who can make it here will not be too large. They have been hungry all the way and their bodies have already been overwhelmed. If we go head-to-head, they may not be our opponents. For now, we will arrange manpower to strengthen vigil. I will go find out. The situation in the neighborhood.”

Yan Fugui immediately nodded in agreement: "Okay, I'll make arrangements right away."

Yan Fugui called several village chiefs and organized the strong laborers in the team overnight. Yan Ersheng, Yan Wen, Yan Wu, Yan Huai and his son, Yan Dahu, Yan Xiangyang and his son all joined in.

Yan Shu suggested that Aunt Mei and Xiao Yu be taken to the tent to rest together.

Jiang Ci asked people to light several bonfires in all directions, east, west, north and south. The firelight would not only drive away the wild beasts on the mountain, but also make it easier to detect the movements around them.

After arranging everything, Jiang Ci walked back to his camping ground.

Yan Shu and Xiao Yu sat beside the fire to warm themselves up, while Liu Wenniang and Aunt Mei stayed in the tent to mend clothes by candlelight.

Seeing Jiang Ci coming back, Yan Shu immediately stood up and went to greet him.

"How is the situation outside?"

"It's still early. Those people won't act rashly when they see that we have set up additional defenses. As long as they stay in the team, there will be no danger. I'm going out and will be back in about half an hour. You stay here obediently."

Even though he was sure that the refugees would not come to cause trouble for the time being, he was still worried about leaving her behind. Perhaps it was the shadow left by that night in Cangtong County. He was always afraid that if he was not careful, she would be kidnapped like that time. Walk.

Yan Shu smiled noncommittally when he saw him treating her like a child.

"Don't worry, I will stay here to protect Mom, Aunt Mei, Xiaoyu and the others, and I won't go anywhere."

Jiang Ci finally left the team with confidence and flew towards a dense forest at the foot of the mountain.

When they arrived in the forest, Huan Ying and others were already waiting here.

"Son."

Jiang Ci asked: "How is the situation nearby?"

"There are currently five groups of refugees staying nearby, with a total of about 3000 people. Two groups of them have close contacts and seem to be plotting something. The refugees who were discovered by the young master before are from this group of people, and the other three groups of refugees are from this group of people. There is nothing unusual so far.”

Jiang Ci thought for a moment: "Continue to keep an eye on them."

Huan Ying bowed respectfully and said, "Yes! Master, Jing San just sent a message from Fei Ge, saying that a group of convoys are coming here and they will arrive here in about an hour."

Since there is a convoy, it is obviously not as simple as ordinary refugees.

"How many?"

"About 500 people, like a big family, went south together, followed by more than 300 nursing staff. Jing San said that he saw acquaintances of you and Miss Yan among this group of people."

Jiang Ci raised his eyebrows with interest: "Who is it?"

"The Xu family brothers and sisters in Furong Town, and the escorts from Longwei Escort Agency are also in the team."

After arriving at Nanwei Mansion, Qi Tianyi, Chen Xiao and other people from the Longwei Escort Bureau returned to the Xu family team.

They were originally the escort team of the second master of the Xu family. If Qi Tianyi had not been worried about his relatives encountering bandits, they would not have returned to the vicinity of Panfeng Village.

Jiang Ci suddenly realized: "It turns out to be the Xu family's team."

This is good news for him.

Huan Ying continued to report: "General Su Ji of Yu Lin has arrived at Nanwei Mansion. He met with Li Shangqian yesterday. However, Li Shangqian did not disclose your whereabouts. It seems that this person is worthy of being reused by the young master."

"Li Shangqian was cultivated by my grandfather. He has a strong and upright character. If used properly, he can be a sharp and good knife. However, it is too strong and easy to break. He emphasizes martial arts over literature. Old General Li is only suitable for fighting on the battlefield. Fighting and killing, the intrigues and intrigues of officialdom are not suitable for him."

It is precisely because of this that Li Shangqian, the governor of Nanwei, was so aggrieved under Guo Chengsi's lust.

"Sir, Su Ji should be able to find out soon that you have left Nanwei. He might chase you all the way. Do you want to see him?"

Jiang Ci pondered for a moment: "The people from the Shadow Sect were arranged to release some false news on the way, making Su Ji mistakenly think that I was on my way to the capital."

"Why did the young master do this?" Huan Ying asked with some confusion.

A hint of calculation flashed in Jiang Ci's cold eyes.

"If the people in the capital know that I have left to return to the capital, there should be many people who are ready to take action."

He really wanted to see what the old emperor's plan was.

"I have one more thing to report to Young Master Ming. The third prince proposed marriage to the Liu Mansion two days ago and proposed to marry Liu Hanyue, Liu Bin's daughter."

After finishing her words, Huanying secretly glanced at Jiang Ci.

He remembered that his master had made a joke with His Highness before, saying that His Highness had arranged a baby marriage since he was a child, and the woman seemed to be the legitimate daughter of Yongding Hou Liu Bin.

Jiang Ci and Liu Hanyue had never met. Although they had joked a few words when hearing their mother's jokes when they were children, they could not take them seriously.

At this time, he was thinking about Ye Lanxuan's plan.

Ye Lanxuan proposed marriage to the Yongding Marquis Mansion, obviously for the [-] Northern Hebei Army in Liu Bin's hands.

Liu Bin, the old fox, naturally understands Ye Lanxuan's purpose. Can the two of them achieve this marriage?

"I heard that Miss Liu was born with a fetal disease and had a hard time surviving in the human world, so Liu Bin sent the girl to a nunnery to practice on her behalf, and then took her back to the mansion after she got hairpins?"

Huan Ying replied: "That's true. It is said that Liu Bin loves this girl very much. He will try his best to satisfy her whatever she wants. He would even pluck the moon from the sky and give it to her. My subordinates think that if the third prince can gain the admiration of this girl, Liu Bin will definitely follow his daughter’s wishes.”

If it is true as the rumors say, this girl has been weak since she was a child. If she enters the devil's cave of the royal family, it will be difficult for her to survive. That old fox Liu Bin will never send his precious daughter into the tiger's mouth unless he, this precious daughter, I won’t marry anyone other than Ye Lanxuan.

"Send someone to investigate Liu Hanyue's past."

"Yes!"
