Traveling through ancient times to escape famine, I have a treasure chest so I don't have to wo

Before daybreak, the housekeeper of the Pei residence came to inform the Xu family that Pei Jiao could not come to see them off.

"Sister Pei, is there anything wrong?" Xu Ning asked Butler Pei.

"Yes, my young lady couldn't come to see Miss Xu off because she had something to deal with. She asked me to apologize to you on her behalf." Butler Pei explained good-temperedly. Pei Jiao asked him not to tell Xu Ning and the others the truth, fearing that they would worry and not want to leave, and then something unexpected would happen again.

Xu Ning didn't say whether he believed it or not, and the other people in the Xu family didn't say anything either. They got on the carriage after breakfast as planned.

Butler Pei said that Pei Jiao asked him to escort the Xu family out of the city on her behalf, so he sat in a carriage and followed at the end of the team.

As soon as Xu Ning got on the carriage, he asked Baibaoxiang, "Is there any problem with Sister Pei?"

"Yes, player, the emperor wants to grant her a marriage, and she is now pretending to be sick at home! In order not to worry you, she specially arranged for the butler to send you off."

"Fuck, that dog emperor is such a loser, he actually used Sister Pei to control the Pei family and Jiang Shaoheng!"

"The emperor should know about some of the things Jiang Yan did. Player, the emperor and the other forces are now communicating and are trying to connect. Do you want to inform Jiang Yan?"

"No need. He probably knows more information. After all, he is reborn. Let's go back to the valley first. It seems that it is not safe outside now. I don't know if Sister Pei will be affected. I hope we can meet up later."

The carriage rolled forward and soon arrived at the city gate.

Unlike the tolerance on the day they came in, there were many soldiers guarding the city gate today, checking everyone coming in and out one by one.

"What happened up front?" As soon as the carriage stopped, Butler Pei got off and led his men to the front of the carriage.

"Butler, it seems to be a strict investigation."

"Go and find out what it is about." Butler Pei frowned, worried that it would affect the Xu family's plan to leave the city.

The Xu family has been very low-key during the two days they came into the city, and they have not had any conflicts with anyone, which shows that this strict investigation is not aimed at the Xu family.

But it is better to be safe than sorry. If it is aimed at the Pei family, the Xu family may not be able to leave the city.

The servants' investigation soon yielded results. "Butler, I heard that they were trying to catch a thief. A jade ornament was lost from Prime Minister Song's house. It is said to be priceless. Prime Minister Song came to His Majesty and His Majesty allowed him to send people to search the city gate!"

"A jade ornament?" Butler Pei told the Xu family everything. After listening, Xu Ning asked the treasure chest to scan all their things and found out that there was actually a jade ornament of Guanyin hidden in Xu Xiaohu's carriage!

Xu Ning secretly told Old Lady Xu about the matter, and she immediately took Xu Ning to Xu Xiaohu's family's carriage.

"Xiao Hu! Where did you get the Jade Guanyin?" Old Mrs. Xu found the Jade Guanyin in the secret compartment of the carriage according to what Xu Ning said.

Xu Xiaohu's wife was so scared that she wanted to scream, but Xu Xiaohu's mother quickly covered her mouth.

"Aunt, our family can't afford such expensive things!" Xu Xiaohu was also very scared. He also heard what Butler Pei said just now.

"Oh no, he doesn't want to leave our family!" Old Mrs. Xu said anxiously!

"Grandma! Don't worry! Come on, Uncle Xiaohu, take Grandma Gu and Aunt Gu to my carriage. Remember, if anyone asks, just say that I was not feeling well and needed to go to the bathroom, so I used your carriage! Don't say anything else! Remember that!"

"Okay! Ningning, Aunt, you have to be careful!" Xu Xiaohu knew that he could not help now, so he could only quickly take his wife and mother to Xu Ning's carriage.

Just then, they saw Xu Ning's carriage. Xu Da and his companions got off the carriage and asked Xu Xiaohu, "Where is Ning Ning?"

"Brother Dayong, Ningning said she was not feeling well, so she and her aunt used our carriage!"

"Yes, yes, yes." Xu Xiaohu's wife responded quickly.

The officers and soldiers also searched them, and the carriage was completely turned upside down, with things turned into a mess.

Xu Da looked at her and wanted to go forward, but was held back by Zhang.

Xu Feng glared at the officers and soldiers angrily, and Xu An was afraid that he would get impulsive so he kept staring at him.

Old Man Xu sighed with a bitter face, and Xu Yuan supported him to prevent others from bumping into him.

Soon the soldiers found the carriage where Xu Ning was. They roughly lifted the curtain of the carriage. Xu Ning, holding his stomach and looking pale, nestled in the arms of Old Lady Xu.

"What are you doing! Get off the car and check!" the soldier said as he was about to pull Old Lady Xu and Xu Ning down.

Butler Pei quickly stepped forward and stuffed a handful of silver, and explained in a low voice: "Sir, this girl is a friend of my young lady. Please take a look at her."

The officers and soldiers shook the silver in their hands, put it away, and then stopped trying to stop Xu Ning and Old Lady Xu.

However, the officer immediately smelled a bloody odor and frowned and asked: "Who is injured?"

"Oh, my dear officer! Don't speak so loudly. You are a shy girl." Butler Pei pulled the officer aside and whispered a few words to him. The officer looked at Xu Ning several times and said nothing more.

The carriage was turned upside down again, and the officers and soldiers returned empty-handed. Some people who were queuing to leave the city began to clamor, and the officers and soldiers did not dare to delay any longer and let them go.

The servants of the Song Mansion in the crowd saw that something was wrong and immediately returned home to report the situation.

Butler Pei finally breathed a sigh of relief after getting the people out of the city safely, and hurried back home to report.

Compared to the anger in Prime Minister Song's mansion, the Pei family was very happy to hear that Xu Ning's family had left the city safely.

"Butler, have you seen anyone following Ningning's family?" Pei Jiao asked.

"No, probably he didn't take Miss Xu's family seriously. I saw them leave earlier than me." Butler Pei reported truthfully.

"That's good. You'll have to work hard these days. Tomorrow morning, ask for leave for my father, and then you can lead the people to evacuate quickly, okay?"

"Yes, ma'am."

The Pei Mansion is seldom visited on weekdays, and other people seldom come to the Pei Mansion. But ever since the dog emperor arranged the marriage, that family will definitely come to visit in the next few days.

Pei Jiao and her family did not dare to leave immediately during the day, but arranged for people to move some valuable small items first. Fortunately, nothing happened after Master Pei came back from court that day.

Pei Jiao and her family had already made preparations in the afternoon. After bolting the door at dark, they went down the secret passage and began to evacuate.

Pei Jiao's evacuation was very smooth, and she successfully reunited with the Xu family who were waiting at the cave entrance early the next morning.

After Xu Ning and everyone else came out, he took his eldest brother Xu Feng into the secret passage and completely blocked the exit.

The Pei mansion's steward asked for leave for his master and hurried back to the mansion.

The mansion was quiet at this time, with only Butler Pei and the groom left.

The two followed the instructions and went down to the tunnel at the dry well. There was a huge stone mechanism set up there, and they blocked the entrance with the huge stone. At this time, they didn't have to consider which way to go, because they only had the farther route left, and the others had been blocked.

Butler Pei and the coachman did not dare to delay. They opened the mechanism as they walked to block the road behind them, and finally reached the exit after dark.

Pei Jiao had already prepared a carriage for them at the exit. The carriage would take them to meet their families and finally gather together in Haicheng.

As for Pei Jiao, after a day of fast riding, they arrived at the nearest ferry before dark.

"Dad, Mom, slow down."

“Jiaojiao, your father doesn’t need to worry. Come here quickly, my wife. I will help you get on the boat!”
