"When it comes to having extensive connections, it has to be Brother Wang. What do you think we should do? Are we really going to let the emperor use this unborn baby to suppress our Lin'an lineage?"

The head of the Wang family cursed "old fox" in his heart.

Since the head of the Xue family married the daughter of the Cui family, he has truly regarded the Xue and Cui families as one family.

You forget to bring him along when good things happen, but remember to bring him along when you run into trouble. There are no such good things in the world.

His face remained calm, but his words were very harsh: "If the emperor wants to suppress someone, he will suppress the Cui family. What does it have to do with my Wang family? What do you, the Xue family, have to worry about? The three Yi tribes have nothing to do with your Xue family!"

The head of the Xue family looked unhappy: "Brother, why are you saying such unlucky words! Our four families must stick together and advance and retreat together!"

The head of the Wang family cursed several times in his heart, who wants to be of the same blood with you!

He glanced at the uneasy head of the Chen family and planned to divert the trouble to someone else: "How about asking the head of the Chen family and the Prince of Zhennan to find out?"

When faced with such a situation, the head of the Chen family retreated instead, waving his hand and refusing: "My sister is just a concubine. She only has some face in the mansion because the princess is not in the southwest. How can she interfere in the affairs of the court!"

When Patriarch Cui heard their excuses, he knew there was nothing he couldn't understand. This was none of his business, so he just stood aside.

Three cobblers put together may not be as good as Zhuge Liang. They may still be cobblers and of no use at all, and they will immediately want to quit.

His spirit became weak, and his words sounded disheartened: "It has been fifteen years since we discussed countermeasures together to deal with the suppression of the late emperor.

Now in Lin'an City, or even in the whole Jiangnan area, who dares to look down on our four families?

I think it’s time for everyone to make plans for their own families!”

Patriarch Wang's heart skipped a beat. They were going to break up! How could that be possible?

Back then, the four families contributed money and effort together, but now in the harem only the woman from the Cui family has seen some improvement. How can they just break up like that?

The Cui and Xue families are tightly united because of the marriage of the next generation, and the Chen family, because of the concubine of the Prince of Zhennan, can do whatever they want in the south as long as they do not commit rebellion.

There was only one beauty in his family from the previous emperor's time, but she had been moved to the concubine's residence near the imperial mausoleum when the emperor ascended the throne, leaving no trace.

After that, the four families sent women to the palace one after another, but none of them was as favored as Cui Cainu.

He hurriedly held down Patriarch Cui’s arm and said, “Brother, it’s not that serious!

I think it's better to stay calm and stay within the time limit. During this period, we in the capital should stay alert and stay still.

Old Chen also wrote to the Prince of Zhennan to ask him if the emperor really wanted to take action in Jiangnan, he would not be able to escape unscathed. "

After hearing this, Patriarch Cui shook off his hand, with a half-smile on his face: "This is quite manageable, how come you couldn't do anything before?

It seems that people still need to be pushed!"

He bowed to the three of them and said, "I have something important to do in the mansion. I'm sorry I can't keep you company!"

Patriarch Xue also bowed hurriedly and left behind Patriarch Cui.

Patriarch Chen also smiled awkwardly and said, "Patriarch Wang, then I will also go back to tell my useless daughter?"

"go Go!"

When Mr. Wang was the only one left in the tea room, he could no longer suppress his anger and swept all the cups on the table to the ground.

"How ridiculous! How ridiculous! When my daughter from the Wang family was in the palace, she was not so arrogant!"

It's just for the moment, it's not a good time to break up.

Patriarch Wang's attendant came in from outside, bowed and said, "Patriarch, they are all gone!"

"I know! We'll see!"

The follower didn't know who this was addressed to, so he just lowered his head and stood behind the head of the Wang family without saying another word.

A roast duck just filled the bottom, but the fragrance still lingered on the body.

Kuilang crawled to Lu Jiao from behind like a dog that smelled blood: "Did you eat duck?"

"You haven't woken up yet, you are still dreaming! I was driving the car just now, how could I stop to eat roast duck?"

“Really?” Kuilang felt that the fragrance he smelled just now was definitely not an illusion. He stared at Lu Jiao’s expression suspiciously, afraid of missing the slightest bit of unnaturalness on his face. “You… you swear on Lu Ze that you didn’t steal the duck!”

Lu Jiao asked quietly, "Lu Ze is your son's cousin, are you sure you want to swear on him?"

Kuilang's arrogance immediately deflated, and he cursed himself in his heart for being so cowardly.

Why be afraid of Lu Jiao! They are just two arms and two legs, and even if you cut off your head, you will only get a scar the size of a bowl...

He quickly controlled his unbridled thoughts and said stubbornly, "Then I want to eat roast duck tonight!"

"Why didn't you tell me you wanted to eat the food from the imperial kitchen tonight!"

The two men bickered for a long time, and the carriage swayed forward for a few miles before it found a small mound.

They camped on the leeward side.

Use the angle between the cart and the mound to fix the tent.

Of course, Lu Jiao slept in the tent, and Kui Lang kept watch on the cart. They just happened to switch places when they came.

The bonfire was lit, but Kuilang still refused to give in: "I don't care, I just want to eat roast duck."

Lu Jiao pointed to the endless grassland around him and said, "Did you see half a duck when you came? Where can I make roast duck for you?

Be honest, and when we catch up with the tribe, we will follow them for a while and then exchange them for a sheep to roast and eat."

"Then you are not allowed to cheat!"

Lu Jiao looked at Kuilang's face for a long time, then shook his head. Why did Kuilang become a little abnormal after meeting Bi Yue?

If it weren't for the fact that doing business alone on the prairie was somewhat conspicuous, she would have wanted to go out alone!

She didn't want to go back and look at Kuilang's resentful face, so she walked away under the pretext of looking for traces on the ground.

As they walked along, they came across many places where the grass on the ground had been eaten away, leaving only a layer close to the ground. However, observing the direction of the traces, they found that it was not the same direction they were looking for.

It can be seen that there are many such nomadic tribes throughout the grassland, and we may need to ask them about the migration routes of other tribes.

Of course, using the excuse of trading and selling goods would not attract so much attention as long as one did not run into the caravans of those large tribes.

Her mental power radiated out, and she actually discovered a small pool of water a few miles away.

There were a lot of aquatic plants growing beside the pond, and flocks of wild geese were playing in the water, pecking at the ground from time to time, picking up a bug and swallowing it into their stomachs.

Lu Jiao's eyes lit up. If there are no wild ducks, wild geese will do!

She quietly used her mental power to knock out two lone geese, carried them back, and dropped them in front of Kuilang.

"Well, if there is no wild duck, roast the wild goose yourself!"

Unexpectedly, Kuilang said with a sad face: "It is said that wild geese are loyal birds.

The prince also said that when they got married, he would capture two wild geese alive for Miss Gu as a betrothal gift. Why did you shoot them down and eat them? "

Lu Jiao picked up the two geese and turned away.
