Last night was calm.

Maybe there was no trouble from Jiang Lan's side, and no one came to look for the indenture.

Bai Jing had a good sleep that night. When he woke up, the indenture contract was still lying safely in the wooden box on the table.

"If I had known those people wouldn't come, I should have had a good sleep."

Wei Hongmian massaged his cervical vertebrae to make the back of his neck feel more comfortable.

They were out of the city gate and seemed to be safer, so they were no longer afraid to talk in the carriage.

"I think they may be afraid to come. Look." Bai Jingzhi lifted a corner of the carriage curtain, and the movements of Jiang Lan and his group came into view.

Zhou Yue'e was driving the carriage, and only the mother and daughter were in it. They didn't have so many worries in the carriage.

Wei Hongmian looked in the direction his daughter pointed, and there was indeed something wrong with that group of people.

She knew that Jiang Lan was the prince of Yan and a descendant of the royal family, so she could accept some of his minor flaws.

But Jiang Lan's actions today made Wei Hongmian frown.

Jiang Lan held a whip in his hand and whipped the people who were guarding him from time to time.

"These people just suffer like that?"

Wei Hongmian had never encountered such a situation in his original world, but had only seen it on TV.

I didn't expect that a scene that had appeared on TV would be played out here in real time.

It was at this time that Wei Hongmian began to gain a more three-dimensional understanding of the distinct class divisions in the feudal society of the Dazhuang Dynasty.

"I guess these people didn't listen to Jiang Lan, so Jiang Lan beat them to vent his anger."

Bai Jingzhi has always had a low opinion of Jiang Lan and somewhat disdains the way this person does things.

"Jingzhi is right!" Zhou Yue'e was driving outside. She had sharp ears and eyes, and she heard the conversation between the mother and daughter.

Bai Jingzhi simply climbed out of the carriage and gently tugged at Zhou Yue'e's clothes, "Sister Yue'e, what news did you get from Wei Li?"

Wei Liu was afraid that there might be problems with food, so he specially arranged for Zhou Yue'e to keep an eye on it in the backyard last night.

Zhou Yue'e and Wei Li had nothing to do, so they talked about a lot of things.

"Wei Li always feels weird. Does he have any relationship with the Wei family?"

"Sister Yue'e, you will know in the future. Keep it secret for now." Bai Jingzhi smiled playfully, "Tell me what happened to Jiang Lan."

"It was the Prince of Yan who wanted those people to secretly sell their indentures and steal food, but unfortunately no one listened to him."

Zhou Yue'e also admired these people. They knew what to do and what not to do. These people were somewhat disgusted by such petty thefts.

"Weren't those people very respectful to the Prince of Yan before? What happened now?" Bai Jingzhi was a little confused, "Aren't these people soldiers under the command of the Prince of Yan?"

"I asked Wei Li last night. These people are considered elite soldiers in Yanzhou. However, the only one who can give them absolute orders is the Silver-faced Yama."

Zhou Yue'e was actually a little puzzled. The Silver-faced Yama was only a general guarding the border of Yanzhou. How could he have such great authority among these people?

"Silver-faced Yama? Isn't that Jiang Zhu?" Bai Jingzhi first thought of the cold man.

"That's him! Wei Li is also under his command, and Chang Bo is the personal bodyguard of Silver-faced Yama. Jiang Lan left in anger because of Jiang Zhu."

Zhou Yue'e got a lot of information out last night, and she didn't expect Wei Li to be so loose-lipped.

She told Bai Jingzhi all the news, "I wonder if Wei Li's boss will cause trouble for him because he is so talkative."

After hearing this, Bai Jingzhi frowned and muttered quietly, "Jiang Zhu is a smart man and also good at martial arts. How could he hear Jiang Lan arriving at the door of the study?"

"Besides, if there is no blood relationship, how could the King of Yan pass the throne to Jiang Zhu?"

Even if Prince Yan agrees, will Princess Yan and the people in the capital agree?

"Wei Li didn't tell you what you were talking about. He also got it from Chang Bo. I don't know if it's true or not."

Zhou Yue'e added.

"Hey, Wei Li actually told you all these things? When did you two become so familiar with each other?"

Bai Jingzhi asked casually and didn't take it to heart.

Zhou Yue'e's face flushed and she said nothing.

"Sister Yue'e, you didn't sleep a wink last night. Let my father come and drive the carriage. Then you can go in and have a rest. We may have a tough battle later."

Bai Jingzhi's intention was to let her go into the space to rest and recuperate.

"A tough battle?" Zhou Yue'e was puzzled. "We are out of Jucheng, is there still danger?"

"I can't say for sure now, but it's just a warning to prevent others from being caught off guard." Bai Jingzhi finished speaking, frowned and climbed back into the carriage, still muttering, "What does Wei Li mean?"

"Is there something else going on in Lingzhou? It seems I should ask Jiang Zhu over when I have a chance."

"What other secret is there?" Wei Hongmian relaxed after leaving Jucheng and was eating melon seeds in the carriage.

She handed her daughter a handful of melon seeds and said, "Don't drop the skins in the carriage. Put them in the space villa later."

Bai Jingzhi was speechless, but still reached out to take it, "Mom, we are still running for our lives, please keep a low profile."

"I see. It's not that no one is bored." Wei Hongmian didn't read the book. The carriage was a bit bumpy after leaving Jucheng, and reading in the carriage was too straining on the eyes.

Bai Jingzhi was puzzled, "Why is the speed so fast? It's even bumpier than the mountain road."

The mother and daughter finished eating the melon seeds in their hands before they started to communicate.

"What were you mumbling when you came in just now?" Wei Hongmian asked after he finished dealing with the garbage in the carriage.

"It's okay. Sister Yue'e just got some information from Wei Li. I always feel that there is something else going on in Lingzhou."

Bai Jingzhi was sorting out the relationships involved as he spoke.

"What's the secret?" Wei Hongmian read the original body's notes and had a very good impression of the Wei family.

If they become prosperous in the future, they will definitely lend a hand in avenging the demise of the Wei family.

Bai Jingzhi speculated, "The King of Yan should have also intervened in the battle of Lingzhou."

"But we are not sure now. Jiang Lan is just a loser and probably doesn't know much. Chang Bo is Jiang Zhu's man. We will know the answer if we get a chance to ask him."

Wei Hongmian couldn't bear to see her frowning, "You are still young, don't frown, you will figure it out in the future."

"I don't know if Wei Liu has caught up."

"You just came out, why did you let Wei Liu go back?" Wei Hongmian was a little confused. "If you want to get information, wouldn't it be better for your father to go?"

"My father has no experience! He almost got caught when he bought something last night. I don't know how he got the information in Ping County."

Bai Jing's words revealed complaints that his family was indeed not clear about the currency transactions here.

The most valuable thing here is not gold, but silver.

"When we were in Ping County, our banknotes were swindled. After what happened this time, your father will change. Once is raw, twice is familiar."

Wei Hongmian smiled and said, "Don't mention this anymore. Your father cares most about his reputation."

"I know. Once we are settled, we will really see what the Liu County Magistrate has in stock."

These days, Bai Jingzhi entered the space and came out quickly without staying.

She hadn't had time to check what was in those boxes.

"Jingzhi, the people are back, and there are the sounds of horse hooves behind us." Zhou Yue'e looked back and saw Wei Liu galloping towards them from afar.

Bai Jingzhi was delighted when he heard this. He lifted the carriage curtain and looked back. "Indeed, he came back so soon."

One man and one horse, approaching from afar, caught up with them in just two minutes.

Bai Jingzhi's furry little head popped out, "Sixth Grandfather, what news did you get?"

"Of course! said the coachman."

Wei Liu dismounted and threw the reins to Ren Shui who was sitting on the ox cart in front.

When he got on the carriage, his expression was somewhat solemn.

Bai Jingzhi noticed that something was wrong with him. "What happened? Sixth Grandpa, why do you look so unhappy?"

"Don't mention it, we are really being targeted."

"Uncle Liu, why do you say that?" Wei Hongmian has also come to understand Wei Liu's character these days. He won't say anything unless he is sure.

"Last night there was a fire in the clothing store we went to, and two of the guys died."

"For food?" Bai Jingzhi's brain worked quickly, and he figured out the key point after a little thought, "Those four people who followed you were after food, not to keep an eye on you?"

Wei Liu nodded, "These people think we are fat sheep, and someone will come after us later."

The shop owner who caught fire rushed to the city gate with his servants, and many wealthy families followed behind.

The city of Jue was in chaos, and he took advantage of the chaos to escape.

Bai Jingzhi sneered, "Fat sheep?"
