This is ancient times, and you need a guide to go anywhere else. Her identity is Mrs. Weiyonghou, and it is not that easy no matter where she goes. Lu Xiao can also find her by following the clues based on her household registration.

So before leaving, I have to get a new identity.

For this day, Meng Liu had already established a relationship with the wife of the Minister of the Ministry of Finance. She used the excuse that she had several distant relatives who had fled to the family, and it was easy to get a few new identities. But now she couldn't get out of the Hou Mansion, so she had no choice. Contact Madam Shangshu.

Yuan Xiang was watched as closely as she was, so the only solution for now was for Shen Zhou to find an opportunity to take her souvenir to the Shangshu Mansion.

Shen Zhou originally disapproved of Meng Liu's departure because Mrs. Hou's escape from the Hou Mansion was too shocking. Once caught, neither Mrs. nor he and Yuan Xiang would survive. But when he heard that Mrs. Hou was going to find his young master, Well, just pretend he didn't say it.

Seeing the opportunity when the servants in the mansion went out to buy, Shen Zhou secretly followed him out. He went to Shangshu's Mansion anxiously and handed in the letter that his wife gave him. Because he was a foreigner, Mrs. Shangshu couldn't see him in person, so she only sent a little maid to give him all the things she had prepared.

Shen Zhou only took one look and beamed. He and Lu Peifeng grew up almost at the same time. The young master hardly lived a good life in the first fifteen years. On the surface, he was the young master of the Hou family, but he was almost a transparent person in the Hou family.

No one cared about him, and the Marquis would beat him at every turn. In the Imperial Academy, the young master had a cold temperament, suffered from illnesses all year round, and was weak. He could not play with other young masters, and it seemed that he had become a loner. Habit.

The same life was repeated day after day. Although the young master didn't say anything, Shen Zhou knew that the young master was very unhappy.

Shen Zhou even discovered that Lu Peifeng had a tendency to self-mutilate. His life was too tight and he would only get some short-term pleasure after hurting himself. It wasn't until his wife appeared that the young master gradually got better, his eyes that had remained calm all year round became brighter, and his smiles grew more and more day by day.

In a peaceful life, the young master had expectations. He began to look forward to meeting his wife for breakfast and dinner. Shen Zhou knew that this was not a simple dependence on his mother, but a kind of psychological salvation.

The lady didn't do anything, but she did something. This was the first time in the young master's life that someone did something for him.

Shen Zhou was very grateful to his wife, so when he found out that the young master's thoughts about his wife had changed at some point, he remained silent and chose to be an accomplice. He did not want Lu Peifeng to return to his previous bleak life.

But he was also afraid, afraid that his wife would stay away from him after discovering the young master's other thoughts.

So Shen Zhou tried his best to build a good relationship with Yuan Xiang. He went to greet his wife every day and mentioned the young master repeatedly in her ears. After that day's kiss, what he feared most came.

But this time, the wife chose the young master, so he risked his life to let the young master get what he wanted.

With strange thoughts in mind, Shen Zhou returned to his house. In his arms was the fresh household registration. As long as he handed these over to his wife, he would be free to fly. Lu Xiao would no longer be able to do anything to his wife and young master.

As soon as he stepped into the mansion, he felt something was wrong. Today's Marquis Mansion was a bit too quiet. None of the maids and ladies who used to clean the house were seen, and Shen Zhou felt something bad in his heart.

He turned on his toes and hid the things under a locust tree in the yard where he entered. After passing the front yard, he found someone waiting for him as expected.

The two guards took him to the study roughly.

Lu Xiao was sitting upright drinking tea: "What are you doing?"

Shen Zhou pretended to be calm: "The incense in the young master's yard has run out, so I went to buy some."

"Lu Peifeng has gone to the border, do you still need to use incense?" Lu Xiao smiled half-heartedly.

"The young master will always come back. It's hard not to be there when he comes back."

Lu Xiao stood up and stepped lightly: "Where's the fragrance?"

"The shop on East Street that the young master frequents all year round is not open today. I plan to go there again tomorrow."

"Okay, okay, you little slave has now learned the following tricks to deceive me." Lu Xiao applauded, "Come here, drag him out and beat him. When to tell the truth and when to stop."

Shen Zhou was dragged into the yard by two military guards in a panic, and boards fell on him one after another.

More than half an hour later, Shen Zhou had taken in more air than out. He gritted his teeth and refused to speak.

Lu Xiao laughed angrily: "The bones are strong, send them to mass graves and feed them to wild wolves!"

No matter what he and Meng Liu were plotting secretly, there was nothing they could do if they lost their lives and he sent more people to protect her yard.

*

Meng Liu noticed something was wrong, it was already night. A long time passed after the agreed time, but Shen Zhou didn't show up.

Yuan Xiang bribed a guard and learned that Shen Zhou was thrown into a mass grave. Her eyes were red and she returned without a trace.

Meng Liu sneered, it seemed that Lu Xiao was still not good at learning.

She stopped covering up and took Yuan Xiang to the mass grave in the night.

The guards wanted to stop him, but with Meng Liu's thousands of years of cultivation, how could these ordinary people stop him? When the two passed by, a group of wild wolves were staring at Shen Zhou, wanting to eat his flesh and blood.

Yuan Xiang's legs were so frightened that she said, "Husband... Madam..."

Meng Liu patted her back: "Don't be afraid."

With her bare hands, she defeated the wild wolves in a few strokes.

It didn't have to be so troublesome originally, but if she used too much mysterious power that was beyond this world, it would inevitably scare Yuanxiang and the others. Now she can use martial arts as an excuse.

Yuan Xiang was stunned. She had grown up with Meng Liu since she was a child. She never knew when the young lady started practicing martial arts. However, there were no novels or movies at this time. Nothing was worn on her at all. The core had been replaced. the concept of.

Shen Zhou only breathed his last breath. His face was covered with blood, and his eyes lit up when he saw Meng Liu: "Husband... Madam... the thing... is under the locust tree in the front yard... ..I...."

"Stop talking." Meng Liu took out his only rejuvenation pill and fed it to him.

Almost instantly, Shen Zhou felt that most of his injuries were healed. This magical medicine was said to be able to bring the dead back to life, but the lady actually used it and gave it to him as a little minion.

Shen Zhou was immediately moved to tears.

"You and Yuan Xiang will find an inn to stay for one night. Then go to the south of the city early tomorrow morning to find a carriage and buy some dry food for the road. I will come to find you tomorrow." She ordered in a low voice.

Yuan Xiang immediately said: "What about Madam? Do you want to go back to the Marquis Mansion?"

Meng Liu nodded: "Yes, Lu Xiao did such a thing to Shen Zhou, I have to get this situation back."

Shen Zhou quickly waved his hand and shook his head crazily: "No, no, after today, the Hou Mansion will definitely have stricter defense. Madam, it's better not to go back."
