Traveling to an ancient peasant family: I got rich by doing business

There were twenty or thirty men in black, and they were not coming for Li Yu and his group.

They assassinated the people in the carriage in front of Li Yu's convoy.

Because Li Yu and his group were not far away, they were probably afraid that something unexpected might happen, so they sent some people to kill Li Yu and his group.

It can be said to be an unexpected disaster.

Without having time to think too much, Li Yu instantly pulled Han Xiaomei, who was sitting outside the carriage to enjoy the fresh air, into the carriage, while Lu Xuan jumped to the ground and fought with the man in black.

The accompanying guards were divided into two groups, one to protect Han Zheng and Si'er who were sitting in the front carriage, and the other to protect Li Yu and Cheng's people.

It was the first time Han Xiaomei saw such a scene and she was so scared that she was shaking all over.

Li Yu hugged her and comforted her softly, "It's okay, don't worry, there are not many people in black, they can't beat us."

The guards sent by Mr. Su are all masters, and some of them are as skilled as Lu Xuan in martial arts, so they should be fine.

Han Xiaomei hummed in a trembling voice.

*

Li Yu waited for a while, and when he heard the sound of weapons hitting outside become smaller, he lifted the curtain and looked out.

Sure enough, there were eleven or twelve men in black who had just come to their place, and now there were only two left. Lu Xuan and several guards were attacking them from all sides.

Less than half a quarter of an hour later, one of the men in black had his sword kicked away and his arm cut off. The other man in black was kicked on the knee by Lu Xuan, and after he knelt down, he was captured by the other two guards.

From then on, the men in black on their side were either killed or injured and no longer posed a threat.

Looking ahead, one of the men in black around the carriage was captured, and the others were all dead.

Li Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

Letting go of Han Xiaomei and asking her, Han Rong and Cheng to wait in the carriage, Li Yu jumped out of the carriage, found some medicine and clean cotton cloth and handed them to the injured guards, asking them to bandage them first.

Afterwards, she took Lu Xuan and several guards and escorted the two men in black to the front.

These men in black are heading for the carriage in front, so let's leave it to the people in the carriage in front to deal with them.

Li Yu organized her speech and decided to explain everything as soon as possible after reaching the front. However, when she got to the front, she found that the person sitting in the carriage was someone she knew.

*

There were three people sitting in the carriage in front.

A little child, about eight or nine years old, a woman, about twenty years old, and an old woman.

It was Qi Yue, who had lived with Li Yu for several months, and Qi's mother and Nanny Chen, who had met Li Yu once.

Although two years had passed, Qi Yue had lived with her for a long time, so she recognized him at first sight.

As for Mother Qi and Nanny Chen, they met on the Lantern Festival two years ago. The time and scene were extremely special, so she also remembered their appearance.

*

The two sides looked at each other quietly, which was finally broken by Qi Yue's shout.

"Sister Li." Qi Yue broke free from his mother's arms and tried to jump down with his short legs.

Li Yu took a step forward and quickly held him down, "Be careful, don't fall."

Qi Yue shouted, "Sister Li, I didn't expect it was you who was walking behind us."

"I didn't expect that the carriage in front of me was from the Duke Dingguo's Mansion."

As he spoke, Li Yu nodded to Qi's mother, "Madam, the Duke."

Seeing that the person in front of her was so kind to her family, Qi's mother hurriedly got out of the car to greet him.

"Today these assassins came to kill us, but I didn't expect to implicate you. I'm really sorry."

Li Yu shook his head. "This is also an accident. But we don't want to get involved in this incident, so these men in black..."

"Madam Li, don't worry. We in the Duke's Mansion will handle it." Mother Qi waved her hand, and several guards came up and took the two men in black away.

Li Yu nodded.

*

"Sister Li, are you going back to the capital? Let's go together." Qi Yue pulled Li Yu's sleeve and said.

Before Li Yu could say anything, she heard Mother Qi say, "There may be more assassins coming. We can't let Madam Li go with them."

Qi Yue said "oh" and shook Li Yu's sleeve reluctantly, then said solemnly: "Sister Li, when I return to the capital, I will go to your store to play."

In fact, he knew about the existence of the store not long after Sister Li opened it in Beijing, but his parents did not allow him to go.

His mother said that the situation at the Duke's Mansion was delicate, and asked him to wait until everything was settled before going to see Sister Li.

He was also afraid of bringing trouble to Sister Li, so he stayed at home.

He was so busy having fun just now that he forgot what his mother had told him.

*

Li Yu felt a little reluctant as he watched the excitement on the child's face gradually fade away.

But what Qi's mother said was right. If we go with them on the next journey, we will inevitably encounter assassins.

After thinking for a while, Li Yu said, "Madam, can you please talk to me alone?"

Mother Qi nodded.

*

The two moved aside to talk.

Li Yu said, "Madam, do you know who sent the man in black just now?"

Mother Qi: "I can almost guess it."

"Will the other party take action next?"

Mother Qi: "I don't know either, but there should be more."

Li Yu said: "I have a way to avoid assassins, I want to tell you."

Mother Qi: "You say."

Li Yu smiled slightly and told her his plan.

Mother Qi was stunned for a while after hearing this, and finally nodded, "Let me think about it."

*

This place is not that safe after all, so Li Yu and Qi's mother Qi Yue and the others quickly separated.

For fear of further implicating Li Yu and the others, this time Li Yu and the others left for a quarter of an hour.

A quarter of an hour later, the carriage of Duke Dingguo's Mansion slowly moved forward.

In the carriage, Qi Yue leaned against his mother and asked, "Mother, what did Sister Li say to you just now?"

Mother Qi touched Qi Yue's forehead and whispered, "When we get to town tonight, let's change carriages."

The advice that Madam Li gave her was to dress up as an ordinary person and ride in an ordinary carriage when she arrived in the town.

As for the carriage and guards of the Duke's Mansion, they stayed in the town for a day before leaving.

Nanny Chen was a little worried. "If we take a normal carriage, there will be no one to protect us except the guard who drives the carriage."

That's more dangerous!

She was not afraid of death, she was already over fifty, so she would die. But the lady and the young master were not like that.

Mother Qi held Nanny Chen's hand and said, "In addition to the guards driving the carriage, we have other people to protect us."

Nanny Chen was puzzled.

Mother Qi had no choice but to explain a few more words.

After hearing the last part, Nanny Chen felt relieved.

"This is a good way to cover up the truth."

*

The next day, a carriage passed in front of Li Yu's convoy.

The car was very close to them, and the driver was a middle-aged man with a beard.

After walking for more than an hour, the middle-aged man, probably out of boredom, started a conversation with Lu Xuan.

By the afternoon, the two carriages came together.

A group of horseback riders coming from the capital passed by two carriages. Seeing that the carriages were small and old, they didn't pay much attention and ran past them quickly.

*

Two days later.

evening.

At the city gate, Li Yu handed in the pass, and the guard at the gate checked it. After confirming that it was correct, he let the convoy into the city.

An hour later, the sound of porcelain breaking was heard somewhere in the capital. "What did you say? Those people from Duke Dingguo's Mansion have arrived home?"
