After rebirth, I went from a peasant girl to the richest man

"The princess' disappearance is a big deal. All the local governments along the way from the capital to the border have received orders to find the princess. In addition, the princess disappeared in Bingzhou Prefecture. The Bingzhou prefect and the commander-in-chief have led a team to search for a long time, but there is no news."

"It would be fine if it was just a simple search for someone, but I heard that the prefect received a secret order from the capital to kill the second princess!"

If the previous shock was false, then Bai Qingyun's current shock was real.

No wonder, with An Twelve's martial arts skills, escorting the princess to the border would not end up with the master and servant being separated.

I thought the people coming were reinforcements, but they turned out to be my accomplices!

"The Bingzhou prefect knew that this matter was not simple, and wanted to write to the capital for instructions, but he didn't expect that what came back was a woman's handkerchief! That handkerchief was something that belonged to the Bingzhou prefect's daughter!"

Women always carry their handkerchiefs close to their bodies. If an ordinary person picks it up, there will inevitably be a disturbance.

When the Bingzhou prefect received this thing, it was tantamount to a threat!

"It would have been fine if this matter had ended here, but who would have known that a secret letter came from the capital saying that the second princess had successfully arrived at the border."

It turned out that Wei Xi had successfully arrived at the destination. But come to think of it, the injuries on his body had almost healed when he set out. Not only was he protected by secret guards, but he was also protected by people from the Han family.

However, the princess's whereabouts will not be easily revealed, at least on the surface.

Even if the current emperor knew that the Second Princess Wei Xi had successfully arrived at the military camp, he would not tell the government offices along the way the whereabouts of the princess. He would only order them to stop searching.

But this matter is no secret among the upper class. The interpersonal network of officials is complicated, and those who should know will know it, but they just tacitly don't say it.

After all, it is against ancestral etiquette for the princess to go to the military camp for training as a woman. But the situation is special now and the emperor intends to conceal it. If she says it openly at this time, it will be no different from being greeted with greetings about her ancestors.

"The person who delivered the secret letter from the capital city was sure that the prefect had let the princess go, so he sent his confidant to investigate secretly. After confirming that the prefect had nothing to do with the incident, he let her go!"

Let him go? Probably not! Although he was threatened, sending people from the court to hunt down the princess of the dynasty, these few things undoubtedly became the weak spot for holding the prefect.

This Bingzhou prefect, whether he was a voluntary official or not, was undoubtedly from the Second Prince's faction!

I don’t know whether Wei Xi, who is far away in the frontier, knows about this. But no matter whether she knows it or not, I have to find a chance to pass the news to her, which will be considered as doing my part.

"Mr. Zhu actually knew about such a secret matter?"

Logically speaking, although Zhu Yu was the son of a county magistrate, he had not yet entered the officialdom. County magistrate Zhu should not tell his family about this kind of threat.

"This... originally... I didn't know..."

I see. Information is like this. Sometimes it comes from all over the place. Bai Qingyun's question has undoubtedly reached a point that people are unwilling to mention.

She was considerate and didn't continue to ask, but changed the subject.

"When is the plum blossom viewing banquet scheduled?"

"It will be the day after tomorrow. If Miss Bai wants to go, you can go with us!"

It's just a matter of asking for one more post, which is not a big deal for Zhu Yu.

"Sister Bai and Sister Xie are going? That's great!"

Zhu Yao still likes to follow the two older sisters. When girls of this age get together, they either compare jewelry or clothes, which is so boring.

Bai Qingyun and Xie Shuer, in keeping with their status as older sisters, took good care of Zhu Yao. She couldn't let go of the two dolls alone!

In addition, Zhu Yu was a man, and his mind was not as delicate as a girl's. The girl had short arms and legs and sat on the table, and the maid was waiting outside the door, so all the small things were done by the two of them.

If Bai Qingyun and Xie Shuer went, it is certain that there would be an extra follower following them.

"No, Bingzhou is a long way away, and it's not suitable for us to go there."

Those who were invited were all the families of officials from Bingzhou, people from different social classes. Even though both sides were good people, it was difficult for them to get along with each other.

They live in different circles and have different ways of getting along. Going there will not help Zhu Yu, but will only add to his troubles!

Zhu Yao, who had not been happy for a few seconds, heard Bai Qingyun's answer. She pursed her lips and looked at the two of them pitifully, with an expression that said, "If you don't go, I'll cry for you."

Xie Shuer, who was close by, took the lead in holding the little girl in her arms. She really couldn't bear to see such a petite and lovely girl cry.

"Yaoyao, be good. Sister Xie and Sister Bai can't go, but they can prepare gifts for you!"

Xie Shuer's voice is clear and gentle, and it can soothe people's hearts at once.

"Miss Xie, don't worry about her. Every time she doesn't want to go to class, she always has this expression! At first, her family thought she was unwell and invited many doctors to see her, but they didn't expect it was just a bluff!"

It turns out he is a repeat offender! No wonder he looks so drooling!

But as for little girl, many people have gone through this. As long as their character is not damaged, doing this occasionally can add a bit of joy and it feels good.

"No problem, I'll just give this set to her! She happens to like it!"

Bai Qingyun and Xie Shuer have had a tacit understanding for a long time, so he naturally knew what the gift Xie Shuer was talking about.

The panda and nine-tailed fox of this size have already been given away, and the remaining ones cannot form a set, so it is better to give them directly to Zhu Yao.

"I came here today mainly to ask Master Zhu what he thought, so I only brought these two. Master Zhu, please pick a time to go to Dayang Village to take the rest!"

The Bai family only has one ox cart without a carriage. In this weather, it is possible that snow will fall at any time, so the most suitable tool to transport these dolls is a horse-drawn carriage.

Horse-drawn carriages are the most expensive. People who can afford horses can afford to order custom-made carriages to protect them from wind and rain when they go out.

Those who are a little better off and can afford to buy livestock such as cows or mules can order custom-made carriages with open carriages, which are convenient for helping to transport passengers or goods, food, etc.

"I'll send my servant to pick it up tomorrow!"

There was only one car for today's trip, and there were a few people traveling with us. It would have been okay to put some small dolls in the car, but there were also more than a dozen large dolls, which was really inconvenient.

"Then I'll have to trouble Master Zhu from now on!"

Bai Qingyun and Xie Shuer raised the milk tea in their hands and toasted Zhu Yu, who toasted back.

The two had done business several times and tacitly avoided mentioning the signing of a contract.

"I want it too! I want it too!"

Zhu Yao saw everyone raising their glasses, so how could she be left behind?

His little arms and legs fluttered quickly to pick up the milk tea in front of him. He deliberately walked around Zhu Yu and clinked glasses with Bai Qingyun and Xie Shuer before finishing.
