The fake daughter married into the mountains and had meat to eat every day during the famine

Song Yuntang nodded.

"Although Cuihuan is a maid in the Fu Mansion, she cannot be returned to Miss Fu at the moment. I will explain the reasons to the old Marquis and he will allow Cuihuan to return to the Fu Mansion."

"It's my duty." Fu Yunqi looked at Cui Huan beside her. "Since the princess has given you a chance to redeem yourself from your crime, don't try to be cunning. Otherwise, even if you return to the Fu family, I will punish you severely."

Cuihuan bowed.

"This servant will definitely cooperate with the princess."

There are too many people here right now, so it’s not a good time to take action.

Meng Xinyue glanced around at everyone present, gave Baoji a wink, and then quietly left with her maid.

Hao Ting came to Xu Wencheng and pulled his hand.

"Second uncle."

Xu Wencheng looked down and saw the little guy, then quickly bent down and picked him up.

"what happened?"

Hao Ting pointed at Gu Xinjiu behind him with an innocent look on his face.

"Aunt Gu wants you to teach her how to fish."

Xu Wencheng was stunned and looked behind him. Gu Xinjiu was standing not far away with an embarrassed look on his face.

She smiled a little embarrassedly.

"I originally just wanted to ask Young Master Xu about the secrets of fishing, and didn't intend to trouble General Xu. But I didn't expect the young master to be so enthusiastic. I'm sorry for being rude."

As he said this, he bowed to him politely.

Xu Wencheng nodded.

"If Miss Gu wants to learn, I can teach her, but I'm busy today. If you want to learn fishing, I'm afraid you'll have to wait until another day."

Just now, I finally accepted her kindness.

Since she has a need and I happen to be able to do it, then of course I have to satisfy it.

"It's okay, General Xu, take care of your own business first." Gu Xinjiu waved his hands and muttered softly, "I don't really have to learn it."

Xu Wencheng didn't hear the second half of her sentence clearly, but he didn't want to ask in detail. Seeing Song Yuntang had Baoji from Yangdu Marquis' Mansion and Cuihuan from the Fu family ready to leave, and after saying goodbye to Gu Xinjiu, he strode after them with Hao Ting in his arms.

Carrying a child weighing more than 30 kilograms walking on the mountain road is as easy as an ordinary person holding a rag doll.

Linglan, the maidservant beside Gu Xinjiu, glanced in her master's direction and said with a smile, "There's a rumor in the capital that General Xu is a fierce, ferocious man with a muscular build and strong build. If I hadn't seen him in person today, I wouldn't have believed it."

Gu Xinjiu smiled slightly and shook her head.

"Rumors are never to be trusted. I haven't attended a gathering in Beijing for a long time. Today's outing is much more interesting than usual."

As she spoke, she followed the direction Song Yuntang and his group left.

"Let's go. We've had enough fun and seen the excitement today. It's time to go home."

……

As the carriage left Taoxi Mountain, a group of people suddenly rushed out from the mountain. They were all dressed in black and had extraordinary skills.

There were several crossbowmen on the trees, and they had already aimed their crossbows at the carriage.

Such comprehensive preparation.

It seemed that the other party was well prepared.

Xu Wencheng immediately drove his horse to the carriage, drew the sword tied to the horse's back, and watched the black-clad men's every move intently, protecting Song Yuntang and Hao Ting in the carriage.

The guards who came with the carriage also surrounded the carriage to protect the master in it.

At this moment, a gorgeously dressed woman came down from a carriage not far away, holding the hand of her maid. She looked in the direction of the Xu family's carriage with a smile on her face that did not reach her eyes.

"Princess Le'an, if you hand over Baoji to this princess today and pretend that nothing happened, this princess may spare your life."

I thought this little thing would not involve me, but I didn't expect that everyone around Song Yuntang was such a shrewd person.

They discovered Breguet even though he hid it so far away.

Although her current rank as the Crown Prince's Consort is slightly higher than that of a Princess, Song Yuntang and Xu Qingye are after all the Emperor's favorites.

If today's incident were to be exposed, she would not gain any benefit at all. Even if Baoji finally took all the blame, someone would still suspect her.

But Baoji had no handle in his hands. If the old marquis tortured her, she would definitely give herself away.

By then, her life in the Marquis' Mansion will be even more difficult.

Fortunately, I had a backup plan.

As long as Breguet is eliminated, there will be no evidence to prove his guilt, and the old marquis will have no evidence, so he can no longer be implicated.

If Song Yuntang is unwilling to hand over the person.

She also didn't mind killing them all and then faking a surprise attack by bandits.

Anyway, these people present are all death warriors, and death warriors will never betray her.

Song Yuntang did not get off the carriage.

She lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked at Meng Xinyue with a smile.

"This princess has already said that today, the Crown Prince's wife cannot take Miss Baoji away!"

The carriage curtain had just been lowered.

Immediately afterwards, with Xu Wencheng snapping his fingers, countless arrows shot towards the tree, piercing several crossbowmen on the tree into hedgehogs, and they all rolled down.

But before those people rolled down, the crossbows in their hands were still moved.

After Xu Wencheng blocked several of them with his sword, he deflected one of them and sent it towards Meng Xinyue.

This scene happened in an instant.

In such a short moment, Meng Xinyue was unable to react at all. It was not until she felt pain on her cheek and a few strands of hair were cut off that she realized it. If the maid beside her had not helped her up, she would have almost fallen to the ground.

"How can this be?"

The assassins she brought with her today did not come with her.

How could Song Yuntang have anticipated her arrangement?

In fact, Song Yuntang didn't know what he would face today, nor did he know that Meng Xinyue would come, and he didn't expect that she would attack Hao Ting.

But yesterday, when Xu Qingye learned that they were going to have an outing in the suburbs of Beijing, he specifically told Xu Wencheng that the location of today's gathering was in a special terrain and was very easy to be ambushed.

Just in case, let him make proper arrangements.

After listening to him, Xu Wencheng deployed more people along the way.

Although he handed over his military power to avoid the emperor's suspicion, he still had some brothers who were close friends and willing to follow him, so he had no problem protecting his family's safety.

In addition to the financial support from the eldest sister-in-law, these people never slacked off in their training even after returning to the capital, and each of them was equipped with a suitable weapon.

Long-range attack and everything else are good.

Xu Wencheng jumped up on his horse, pointed his sword at Meng Xinyue, and stopped only two or three inches away from her.

Then a wicked smile appeared on his face.

"You, the Crown Prince's Consort, are truly courageous. No one in the Northern Frontier or Western Regions has ever gotten away with anything good from me, and yet a mere twenty or thirty assassins want to snatch someone from my sister-in-law? Do you think I'm made of clay?"

His tone was very light.

But the voice was cold.

To Meng Xinyue, it sounded like a ghost demanding her life, and she stepped back in shock.

Xu Wencheng's expression turned stern, and he pushed the tip of his sword forward again. Under his internal force, the few strands of hair by Meng Xinyue's ears suddenly broke into two pieces near the blade.

After all, he is a general who has fought on the battlefield and killed enemies. Compared with ordinary guards, his aura is much more powerful.

"what!!!"

Meng Xinyue had already arrived in front of the carriage, with no way to escape. She covered her face and screamed in fear.

Before, I only heard that Princess Le'an provided a lot of supplies to the border because Lord Xu's younger brother was fighting at the border, so I subconsciously thought that the young general's military achievements were paved for him by his elder brother and sister-in-law with connections and money.

But he didn't expect that he himself was not an empty shell.
