"Where are you going, Mr. Shen?"

"I'm going to Wanning Prefecture. What about you? Where are you going?"

Ye Shian chuckled: "What a coincidence, we are also going to Wanning Prefecture."

"Really?" Shen Teng was very happy. If Ye Shian also went to Wanning Mansion, wouldn't it mean that he could eat those delicious foods again?

Ye Shian glanced at his team: "Didn't Master Shen bring a cook?"

Shen Teng pouted: "The chef can't cook as delicious as you."

"Then Mr. Shen, do you want to eat the meal I cooked?"

Shen Teng's eyes lit up immediately: "Little cook, are you willing to cook for me?"

Ye Shian smiled, and his smile sent a chill down Shen Teng's spine.

"It's so easy. As long as you take us with you, I can cook for you on the way."

Shen Teng thought it was something else: "It's not that simple, it's just you and your mother, right? Oh, and there's a little kid, come with me."

Ye Shian added: "And one of my sisters."

"Everyone follow me."

The guard frowned upon hearing this: "Sir..."

"You already call me Young Master, how dare you object to me?"

The guard was so choked that he couldn't utter a word. Well, after all, he is the master.

With these guards, Ye Shian no longer has to worry.

Yu Xiuying heard the conversation between the two clearly from a distance. She called Yinzhu happily: "Yinzhu, let's go."

Although Yinzhu didn't know why Ye Shian knew such a wealthy family, she was happy that she finally didn't have to worry anymore.

Then the refugees on the road saw such a strange sight: a team of more than 20 people in a horse-drawn carriage was followed by a swaying ox cart.

Outside Changhe Prefecture.

After a difficult journey, the Ye family finally arrived outside Changhe Prefecture. Even though they had so much silver on them, they still suffered a lot along the way. Not only did they not eat well, they were also worried that the silver would be robbed. Fortunately, they finally arrived at Changhe Prefecture.

A temporary shed was built outside Changhe Mansion, specifically for registering foreign refugees.

Ye Zhankui did not even have time to rest and hurriedly lined up to register. At the moment, no one coming from the south of Huainan City was allowed to enter Changhe Prefecture unless each person brought twenty taels of silver.

Therefore, the Ye family had already discussed it. They would first follow the government's arrangements and move into the village, and then make plans slowly later.

Soon it was Ye Zhankui's turn to register, and he brought all the household registration documents from his home. The person who was registering was tall and thin, with a very distinctive mustache on the corners of his mouth. He glanced at Ye Zhankui, then lowered his head and looked at the documents in his hand.

"From Huaishu Village in Huainan City?"

"Hey, yes!"

"Do you have a brother named Ye Zhantao?"

"Yes, but he died in battle."

The man with the mustache glanced at Ye Zhantao again: "Are you the only ones?"

"Ah, yes."

"Where are your eldest brother's family?"

"Uh..." Ye Zhankui didn't know what to say for a moment. He didn't expect that someone from the government would be able to do this.

"We got separated..." Ye Zhankui lied casually.

The man with the mustache did not say anything, but stood up and whispered a few words to the person next to him. Then the person next to him sat down, and the man with the mustache walked to Ye Zhankui with the household registration documents of Ye Zhankui's family.

"Where are your family members?"

Ye Zhankui turned his head and looked at his family not far away: "Over there."

The man with a mustache half lowered his eyes: "Well, call them all over."

Ye Zhankui was stunned: "Call them all over?"

"Aren't we going into the village?"

Ye Zhankui glanced at the refugees over there. He saw clearly that the registered refugees were queuing over there and then going to the village together, but why did they follow this man?

"Hurry up."

Ye Zhankui didn't understand what the man with the mustache was going to do, but he still obediently called all his family members over.

The man with the mustache led the Ye family to a corner and said, "Wait here. I'll have someone take you to the county town."

Old Lady Ye smiled and said, "Excuse me, which county are we going to?"

The man with the mustache sneered: "You will know in a moment."

Then he left the Ye family behind and walked away, leaving the Ye family members looking at each other, not understanding why their family members had to be distinguished.

Ye Hai thought for a moment and said, "Maybe there are enough people in that county, so they arranged us to be transferred to another county, so they asked us to wait here."

Tian nodded, thinking that what her son said made sense: "It must be like this."

Ye Lian'er looked at the people who registered behind her and were assigned to that group again, and was puzzled: "Brother, you should go and ask around. I always feel something is weird."

Ye Hai glanced at Ye Zhankui and said, "Then you guys wait here, I'll go and ask what's going on."

After the man with the moustache calmed down the Ye family, he went straight to the guards at the city gate. He whispered in someone's ear for a while, then pointed to where the Ye family was. The guard looked towards the Ye family and nodded.

The guard then entered Changhe Mansion. Ye Hai originally planned to go and ask the group of people what was going on, but he saw that the man with the mustache looked strange, especially when the mustache was pointing in the direction of his family, which he found even more strange.

"Is there really something strange?"

Thinking this in his mind, Ye Hai quickly hid in the crowd nearby. Seeing that the man with the mustache didn't notice him, he twisted and turned in the crowd and came to a place not far behind the man with the mustache.

Just at this time, a few people came out of the city. They were all dressed in black and had swords in their hands. It was obvious at first glance that they had good martial arts skills.

The leader came to the mustache man, who nodded and bowed while smiling and saying something. Then the leader in black took out a bag of silver and threw it to the mustache man, who smiled so hard that his mouth stretched to his ears.

Ye Hai couldn't hear clearly, but he recognized a few words.

"From Huainan City", "The Ye family in Huaishu Village", "The old woman is called Wu Xiuhua".

Wu Xiuhua is exactly the name of Old Lady Ye.

Although he didn't understand what had happened, he had a feeling that it was definitely not a good thing. He felt that if he ran back, he must tell his family that this man with a mustache was not a good person.

Seeing him coming back, Tian asked hurriedly: "How is it, what happened?"

Ye Hai licked his lips and said, "That guy with a mustache is really not a good guy. I vaguely heard him talking about our family with a group of people, and he also mentioned grandma's name. I'm afraid they have bad intentions."

Old Lady Ye looked puzzled: "Mentioned me?"

Ye Hai nodded: "That guy with the mustache also accepted money from others. He must have deliberately separated our family from those people."

Ye Lian'er was also moved by Ye Hai's emotions: "So what should we do now?"

At this moment, Ye Zhankui suddenly pulled his family to the woods nearby and said, "Hide first."

Xiaoshan was about to protest with a bitter face, but Ye Zhankui covered his mouth and carried him to his shoulder.

The group of black-clothed men came towards the place where the Ye family had just been. When they didn't see the Ye family, the leading black-clothed man said unhappily, "Hurry up and find them, especially that old woman Ye. We must catch them alive."

Old Lady Ye's heart was pounding when she heard this.

The man in black thought that the Ye family had mixed into the crowd, so he turned around and looked for them in the crowd, but he didn't expect that they had hidden in the woods.

Seeing the man in black walking away, Ye Zhankui did not dare to relax: "Mom, what is going on? Why would someone want to capture you alive?"
