After traveling through time, the four best friends were all targeted by the boss

As soon as it got dark, the eight people were divided into two teams, four in the living tent and four in the yard where herbs and food were stored.

Tao Tao, Xu Zheng, Yi Qing, Pei Xuanxi were sitting on mats, talking in low voices about what happened during the day.

"It feels so quiet outside, like something is going to happen." Tao Tao hugged her arms and curled her legs slightly.

Yiqing immediately hugged her and said, "Don't be afraid, Tao. If you live in a tent these days, I will stay with you!"

Tao Tao gave him a thankful look and said, "It's okay. The conditions here are so simple. You should go back to your house and sleep."

Yiqing frowned and retorted: "How can this be possible? I can't just leave you here."

Xu Zheng was laughing so hard that she didn't care about her image. She patted her thigh and said with a smile: "Hey, you young lovers, can you please pay attention?"

Tao Tao puffed her cheeks and muttered a little embarrassedly: "A Zheng, you are still the same."

Xu Zheng waved her hand: "No, no, no."

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a sudden noise and shouting outside. The four of them looked at each other and stood up immediately.

When they ran outside, they saw a group of beggars. They kept pushing and shoving the guards, cursing in a local dialect that they couldn't understand.

When they saw someone coming out, they started to speak even louder, pointing at them and shouting.

A guard ran up and said that one of the beggars tried to sneak in and set a fire, but was discovered by them. When they tried to catch this beggar, the other beggars rushed out and they captured them all.

The four of them were ashamed. It seemed that these beggars were not very smart.

Xu Zheng stretched her neck and was about to attack, but Pei Xuanxi held her back and shook his head gently: "Zheng, you don't need to do anything yet."

Tao Tao looked around and said angrily, "These patients finally got to sleep, and they came to cause trouble!"

A flash of inspiration came to her mind: the plan was going to succeed!

Yi Qing squeezed her hand soothingly. He and Pei Xuanxi looked at each other and shouted, "Catch them!"

In the darkness, several men in black suddenly flew down. The beggars obviously did not expect such a situation, so they hurriedly ran back. Now their legs were no longer limping, their heads were no longer tilted, and they ran faster than rabbits.

But who were Yiqing and Pei Xuanxi's men? They caught up with them in just a few steps and overwhelmed them all.

The four men walked forward, and in the light of the fire, they saw the ragged clothes and distorted facial features of these people. Because it was summer, they could faintly smell a sour odor when they got closer. They were undoubtedly beggars.

They were holding knives and sticks in their hands, and there were extinguished fire starters on the ground, which showed how heinous the crime they wanted to commit was.

"It's just like Nian Nian said. Then what about them..." Xu Zheng said with eyes wide open.

Pei Xuanxi said gently: "There shouldn't be any problem."

His eyes suddenly turned cold, and he looked down at the group of people kneeling on the ground.

"Who asked you to come?" he asked calmly.

They looked at each other, and a brave one said, "If you tell us, just let us go! Those two said that you officials don't care about us, so we are here to make trouble!"

Tao Tao frowned. How could they ignore them? Meng Yin and Xia Nian took people to distribute things, and they would not care about anyone. Didn’t they receive the message?

Her eyes flickered, and she suddenly understood. Most likely, the two people mentioned by these beggars did it on purpose, making these beggars resentful of them, so they came to cause trouble. Because these beggars were illiterate, they didn't know that the message posted by the troublemakers would be severely punished, and the two people just wanted to use them to lure the tiger away from the mountain!

Tao Tao suddenly laughed out loud. It was a pity that they had miscalculated. Nian Nian had already guessed their plan and was ready to close the net.

After hearing the beggar's words, Yiqing smiled jokingly: "Of course, as long as you say it."

"We don't know their names. They came to us a few days ago and gave us food..."

Yiqing lowered his head. "So you don't know their names or where they are from?"

They nodded repeatedly, fearing that the disaster would bring disaster to themselves.

Yi Qing waved his hand and said, "Take him away." Ah Shuo walked up to him and heard his extremely small voice: "Leave only one cowardly one, and kill the rest."

Ah Shuo cupped his hands: "Yes."

Yiqing put away his anger and put his arms around Tao Tao's waist.

These beggars, who are strong and healthy, instead of working, are out to swindle, kidnap children, and bully decent women. Now they are being instigated to come here and cause trouble. They really deserve to be killed.

Just leave a witness.

At the same time, in the courtyard where Xia Nian and the other three were——

Gu Ling and Xiahou Yu took down the two men in less than a minute.

They carried fire starters on their waists, obviously intending to burn the food and herbs.

Meng Yin was so angry that she rushed forward and wanted to give them each a big slap in the face, but she found that they looked at each other and wanted to bite their tongues to commit suicide.

Meng Yin immediately took action and slapped them in the face with all her might. The two men's heads were buzzing and their faces were a little swollen.

Lu Yun immediately stuffed two pieces of cloth into their mouths, wrapped them around with ropes, and then removed their arms.

Gu Ling picked up her slightly trembling hand, put it against his face, and then blew it twice against his mouth.

"A Nian." Xia Houyu walked to her side, "Your plan was successful."

Xia Nian's face did not look very happy, she was just relieved. If she let them succeed, the consequences would be disastrous.

"It's good that you're okay. Let's go back. Xiahou Yu, you still have to interrogate these two people." Xia Nian said as he glanced at the two men sharply.

Xiahou Yu put one hand on his waist and said, "Since Ah Nian said so, of course I have to take action."

As he spoke, a harmless smile appeared on his lips. He glanced at them coldly, but when he looked at Xia Nian, he instantly retracted this look.

The two people behind were shouting something and were taken away by Qi Sheng.

Meng Yin suddenly remembered Gu Huai. She coughed lightly and said, "It's getting late. Let's go back."

Gu Ling took her hand: "Ayin, are you tired?"

Meng Yin nodded and poked his face with a smile: "Yes, a little bit."

The two men picked them up and flew towards Xiahou Mansion.

When they reached the door, they happened to meet Pei Xuanxi and Xu Zheng who had returned. Meng Yin did not see Tao Tao, so she immediately asked her, "Zheng, where is Tao Zi?"

"Taozi said she's been sleeping in the tent these days, and Yiqing is accompanying her." Xu Zheng sighed, "I said I'd stay with her, but she insisted."

Meng Yin said: "Taozi probably thinks you are not used to sleeping in a tent."

Xu Zheng stepped forward and took their arms: "Okay."

The Xiahou Mansion was still as big as before, and the three of them lived in the same courtyard, which was a special arrangement by Xiahou Yu.

The girls didn't have any objections, except for Gu Ling and Pei Xuanxi.

From the moment Meng Yin ran into the yard, Gu Ling's glares were always on Xiahou Yu.

Xiahou Yu stood in the middle, hooked his arm around their necks, and said with a smile, "What do you two think of my arrangement?"

Gu Ling glanced at him coldly and said that he simply removed the grape racks because he couldn't eat the grapes. Pei Xuanxi smiled gently as always and said calmly that the distance between him and A Zheng was not a problem.

After saying that, they turned around and went back to their room.

Xiahou Yu folded his arms and snorted with disdain.

What’s the big deal? He and Anian are almost there, okay?

Meng Yin had been waiting in the room for more than ten minutes. She and Gu Ling had just said good night to each other, so she thought he would not come to see her.

She walked out of Xiahou Mansion quietly, and Qiao Yi suddenly appeared in front of her.

"Qiao Yi, you scared me." Meng Yin patted his chest and walked forward to hold her arm.

Qiao Yi glanced at the gate with some concern and said, "Miss Meng, do you really want to go see Master Gu Huai by yourself?"

Meng Yin patted her hand comfortingly and said, "Don't worry, I'm here to talk about serious matters."

Qiao Yi nodded slowly. She was mainly afraid that her master would find out, and she really didn't dare to think about the consequences.
