Chapter 352: Entering the County Magistrate's Mansion at Night

Jing Chunxi shook his head slightly, with a serious look in his eyes, obviously not agreeing with Xiaoman's words about protecting herself.

Xiaoman pouted a little aggrievedly, but still calmed down. He had to obey the young lady's arrangements.

Sugar Frost's eyes lit up with excitement, and she quickly agreed, "Then let this servant protect the young lady."

She secretly thought that it would be best if there were not enough people, because this way she would have the opportunity to show her abilities.

Frost even felt that she was sure to win, as if she had already seen herself bravely protecting her master.

However, as soon as she finished speaking, "Nonsense!" almost everyone scolded in unison, with a bit of harshness in their voices, which scared Frosting.

She stood there in a daze, the excitement on her face was instantly replaced by horror, her eyes were full of grievance, and she felt that everyone was going too far.

Jing Chunxi quickly scolded, "Chun Tao, you are responsible for keeping an eye on her tonight. Don't let her go out at all."

Chun Tao replied "Okay" and reminded her with concern: "Miss, before you go out, my aunt said that you must ensure your own safety first."

Her eyes were filled with worry for the young lady, and she also hated herself for not knowing any martial arts. If she hadn't known her own limitations, she would have been as impulsive as Tang Shuang and wanted to do her best to protect the young lady.

Jing Chunxi responded "Okay".

Seeing that everyone was silent and all looked unhappy, Jing Chunxi smiled and said, "If there was no one to help me and I was not absolutely sure, I would not be so brave."

She smiled brightly and relaxedly, her face radiant, as if everything was under control.

But everyone was still skeptical. After all, the young lady's plan was too risky and no one could guarantee that it would be foolproof.

"Master Tao has arranged for someone to be here?"

Ah Qi suddenly spoke, his tone filled with a certainty. He thought about it and felt that since Young Master Tao had provided them with the house, told them about the secret passage, provided them with information, and treated the young lady so well, it was impossible that he would not consider the young lady's safety. He must have left a lot of people with her.

Jing Chunxi had originally only intended to be mysterious and convince them that she had a backup plan, but she didn't expect Uncle Qi to be so imaginative and help her out, saving her from having to make up stories or change the subject.

She smiled slightly and nodded, agreeing with Ah Qi's guess.

After hearing what Ah Qi said, everyone looked at the young lady with a smile on their face. They did not deny it. They immediately understood and felt relieved.

Everyone's frowns relaxed, their worries gone. Ah Qi also breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that with Young Master Tao's men around, this plan would go much more smoothly. Their mission was relatively easy; they just had to do their part, and the young lady's safety would naturally be guaranteed.

Chun Tao looked at the young lady, a trace of relief flashing in her eyes. She knew that although the young lady seemed a little willful on weekdays, she could always make people feel at ease at critical moments.

Frosting lowered his head and secretly swore in his heart that he must learn some skills next time. It was too uncomfortable to be looked down upon by others.

The atmosphere in the room finally eased, and Jing Chunxi breathed a sigh of relief. Now that everyone trusted her, she could do her job better.

"After you've spread the medicine, the three of you will immediately climb over the wall and leave. Don't stop. I'll be out to meet you in half an hour at the latest."

Xiao Man was still a little worried about what the young lady said. Finally, she muttered, "If the young lady doesn't come out in half a quarter of an hour, we'll rush in."

Jing Chunxi did not comment. She thought about it and felt that half a quarter of an hour should be enough. If not, she would have to leave first. After all, she still had to go to the next county government office, and any delay would definitely cause trouble.

……

The first place to go is naturally the county magistrate's office.

The wall of the county magistrate's mansion is not high, and is even lower than the wall of the mansion of an ordinary wealthy family.

Although Xiaoman and Qiyue had been to the government office during the day, Ah Qi was still worried. He was the first to climb in and check again, and he also selected a location and insisted that they enter from there.

After seeing that the four of them had turned over and entered the yard and making sure that there was no problem, Ah Qi and Chong San hid outside the gate to guard it.

"Miss, look at that big tree. There's a big branch on it where you can hide. My sister July and I are hiding there to observe today. If they haven't arrived yet, you can hide there."

Xiaoman talked a little too much tonight, but he observed her so carefully and arranged everything for her, which Jing Chunxi liked.

The branch is quite high, and just by lying on it, the general situation of the courtyard of the county magistrate's mansion can be seen at a glance.

At this time, the loaders had already left. Jing Chunxi looked down from the tree branch and found that the back door of the carriage was closed tightly and nailed with wooden boards.

There were indeed five carriages parked in the middle of the courtyard, and there were no horses next to them. However, there was a stable opposite the wall, and at a glance, there were quite a lot of horses.

At this time, surrounding the five carriages were several yamen runners in official uniforms, only six of them in total.

Three of them stood lazily together smoking their pipes, two sat on the stone slabs nearby chatting, and one took a nap on the shaft of the carriage.

After all, the things were still in the yamen, and this was probably not the first time they had to guard them, so they were not very vigilant.
