After time travel, my best friend and I exchanged supplies and became a rich woman

When Chen Dongyue walked out of the palace gate and came to the street again with Kong Jie, the entire Liaocheng was already under curfew.

The only people coming and going on the street were the guards from Prince Kang's mansion and the runners from the yamen.

Logically speaking, at this time, the moon is above the willow branches and the summer heat has dissipated. It is the time for the people in Liaocheng to enjoy the cool air, have fun, drink and chat.

But nowadays, not to mention people on the streets, even wild cats and dogs have disappeared without a trace.

Chen Dongyue was even a little uncomfortable with such a quiet street.

The two had only walked a short distance when an officer came up to question them.

Fortunately, the leading officer knew Chen Dongyue and Kong Jie. He greeted them and confirmed the handover time with Kong Jie before letting them go immediately.

"Is it also the turn of the Inspection Bureau to conduct curfew patrols?" Chen Dongyue turned her head and asked Kong Jie.

Kong Jie nodded and said, "Yes, Lord Sun instructed us to have the officers in our government office follow the palace soldiers to patrol the streets together to prevent anyone from disturbing the emperor."

"It will take a while, I don't think it will disturb them." Chen Dongyue muttered.

"What?" Kong Jie leaned over and asked.

Chen Dongyue thought about it and decided not to say more about the emperor's situation, so she changed the subject and asked Kong Jie, "Since the patrol team also has to take turns, then you should just go and do your job.

It's just a short distance, I can go back by myself. Besides...my skills are so good that I really don't need anyone to protect me."

"It's okay," Kong Jie shook his head, "Gao Tou'er and Zhang Da Ge are both in the Inspection Office. The couple carried all the bedding to the Inspection Office this afternoon."

"Eh?!" Chen Dongyue was a little surprised, "Isn't Gao Tou'er pregnant?"

".......I find it very strange too," Kong Jie said, "Gao Tou'er is obviously pregnant, but she has no reaction. She can eat, drink, jump and dance. She even caught a few thieves while patrolling the streets a few days ago!

But Brother Zhang couldn't stand the smell of meat at the moment. He even vomited the fake fried meat we had for dinner."

"......This couple is amazing."

Chen Dongyue really admired the ability to transfer morning sickness.

But she also told Kong Jie to help Gao Shuwan share more of the burden. After all, she is a pregnant woman and she should rest well.

Kong Jie naturally agreed.

The two walked and talked along the way, and soon they arrived at Ci'an Hall.

Chen Dongyue asked Kong Jie to go and do his thing, and she turned around and knocked on the door of Ci'an Hall.

Fortunately, the doorman was Xiao Hu this time, so the door was quickly opened from the inside.

When Xiao Hu saw Chen Dongyue, he trotted and shouted, "The boss is back! The boss is back!!"

Everyone who hadn't rested yet rushed to Chen Dongyue.

Song Haopo was the first to grab Chen Dongyue and ask, "Dongyue, what's going on? Why are you suddenly not allowed to go out on the street?"

"Yes," Song Bufan also said, "Dongyue, what happened in Prince Kang's Mansion just now?"

"Mom," Jun Lan also stepped forward and pulled Chen Dongyue's sleeve and asked, "Why did the city gate suddenly close? Many people in our academy live outside the city, and they can't go back now!"

"Stop," Chen Dongyue raised her hand to stop more people from asking questions: "Let me drink first..."

"Fuyutsuki!!! Drink water!!!"

It can be said that Qiao Sanmei had a keen eye. When she saw Chen Dongyue coming back, she turned around and went to the kitchen with her sister-in-law to bring out the large water jar that everyone usually used to drink water.

"Use a ladle?!" Mrs. Qiao stuffed the ladle into Chen Dongyue's hand, "Drink more, there's another jar in the kitchen."

So, under the caring gaze of everyone, Chen Dongyue drank three full buckets of water.

She almost vomited.

After drinking the water, Chen Dongyue also thought about how to answer everyone's questions.

She was afraid that if she said directly that the emperor had been kidnapped and was brought to Prince Kang's mansion, people would be scared, so she could only say that a few distinguished guests had come to Prince Kang's mansion. Prince Kang was afraid that there were too many idle people coming and going in the city and that the distinguished guests might be disturbed, so he needed to impose a city-wide curfew for a few days.

Most of the people in Ci'an Hall have not received much education, so their minds are relatively simple.

So when faced with Chen Dongyue's not-so-common-sense explanation, most people believed it.

In fact, all they want is a reason.

Whether it is reasonable or not is not important.

But Song Bufan and others have seen some of the world, and faced with such an explanation that could not stand up to scrutiny... they chose to believe it.

Because Chen Dongyue will definitely tell them what can be told, and as for things that cannot be told to them, that is what cannot be told.

Anyway, the people in Dehe Villa have always followed one principle, that is: as long as Chen Dongyue dares to say it, they will believe it.

So, after receiving the explanation, everyone quickly returned to their rooms to rest.

Chen Dongyue's resting place is still in the small courtyard where she used to live.

However, due to the current housing shortage, Song Yun and her daughter, and Madam You and her daughter were also arranged to stay in the large warehouse next door. As for Jun Lan, he naturally slept with Chen Dongyue.

Several sisters of Second Brother Qiao and Song Bufan's family also lived with the old ladies and little girls of Ci'an Hall.

Song Bufan and Xiao Hu lived in Uncle Wang's room.

As for Uncle Wang...he chose to live in Qingshan Academy.

The old man said that he was really worried about the children who were suddenly locked up in the academy, so he decided to stay in the academy.

Chen Dongyue asked casually, "The cook in the academy..."

"He was also locked up in the academy." Jun Lan replied.

Oh, then Chen Dongyue understood why Uncle Wang was unwilling to return to Ci'an Hall.

But this time the old man really made a mistake.

Because Chen Dongyue asked Hu Zhuangtou to send the cook and Aunt Hu and others over.

Anyway, the weather is hot now, so men just need a bamboo bed and sleep in the shed on the training ground.

Thousands of Beilin soldiers have slept in this place, and it can accommodate the entire population of Dehe Villa, but that's just a small space.

At this time, the only people left on the farm were Hu Zhuangtou and a few tenants.

Chen Dongyue originally wanted the tenants to seek refuge with their relatives and friends.

But the tenants all said that they had been cut off from all relatives long ago. Poor people didn't even want to have anything to do with them, let alone friends.

So they had nowhere to go and didn't want to leave, so they followed Hu Zhuangtou and stayed in the village.

However, Song Ke was guarding the north gate at this time, so Chen Dongyue was relatively relieved about Zhuangzi's safety.

After running all day, Chen Dongyue put a thin blanket on Jun Lan's belly and lay down to sleep.

But after tossing and turning in bed for a long time, she didn't feel sleepy at all.

There really were too many things happening on this day.

I don’t know if following Ji Chongning to the end is the right choice.

Magistrate Meng claimed to be ill and could not go out. I guess he did not want to make a decision at this time?

The fact that Lord Sun asked the yamen runners to join the patrol team shows that he has made his own choice.

But in fact, no one in Liaocheng has any choice.

Chen Dongyue lay in bed, thinking about random things until dawn, and then he fell into a drowsy sleep.
