    Since leaving the city, Lin Xuanjiu felt a little panicked for some reason.

    When she went out today, she took Minghua and Qianmian with her, as well as the driver Luo Tian, ??who were all from the Lian family.

    Xie Dongxiang re-arranged security work for the Zhao family and replaced Minghua with Lin Xuanjiu because Minghua was more skilled.

    Lin Xuanjiu talked to Minghua to distract himself.

    Suddenly the carriage braked abnormally, Minghua and Qianmian's expressions changed drastically at the same time, they all drew out their weapons and were on guard.

    The two looked at each other, Minghua nodded to Qianmian, Qianmian immediately opened the curtain and jumped out of the carriage, while Minghua guarded Lin Xuanjiu every step of the way.

    Not long after Qianmian left, it was Xie Dongxiang who opened the car curtain from the outside and comforted him softly, "Ajiu, just wait a moment, we will clean it up soon."

    Didn¡¯t he claim to take the first step in an emergency?

    Lin Xuan was stunned for a long time. He quickly got out of the car and looked at Xie Dongxiang doubtfully, "What are you cleaning?"

    I promised not to hide it from her.

    Xie Dongxiang said helplessly, "There are still some outsiders here, so it's not convenient to go into details. Mother Zhou arrived before me. Over there, you go over and say hello."

    Mother Zhou?

    ? Could it be that Mother Zhou from Xiaoxiang Pavilion?

    Lin Xuan got off the carriage for a long time. There were two fallen giant trees in front of the official road, blocking the way.

    She followed Xie Dongxiang¡¯s instructions and walked over.

    Many people were busy, moving tree trunks blocking the road, pouring lime on the road, and shoveling soil from elsewhere to spread it on the road.

    There were only about a dozen people there, but she had to look around several times before she found Zhou's mother's people.

    In fact, Zhou¡¯s mother¡¯s dressing style this time is completely different from what she has seen before.

    Mother Zhou in front of her had a bare face, her hair was only in a bun, and she didn¡¯t wear any accessories.  Wearing a dark brown samurai uniform, with his wrists and ankles tied tightly with straps, he looked capable and dashing, without even the slightest trace of the vulgar Madam from Fireworks.

    "Hello, Mother Zhou." Lin Xuanjiu said hello obediently.

    In the current situation, only a fool would treat Mother Zhou as an ordinary madam.

    Zhou¡¯s mother pursed her lips and said disapprovingly, ¡°Xie Dongxiang is too big-hearted to allow you to attend Jiang Zhanxing¡¯s banquet. Doesn¡¯t he know that old bastard is not a good person?¡±

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: The fourth-grade prefect, the local leader of the entire Qinghe Prefecture, is just an old bastard in the eyes of Zhou's mother.

    But it sounds great, what should I do?

    "He will protect me." Lin Xuanjiu's face became more sincere, and he knelt down and thanked her, "Thank you, Mother Zhou, for caring."

    Zhou's mother waved her hand, "If I had known that he had made arrangements, I wouldn't have had to make this trip. Miss Lin, don't blame me for being too talkative. You have to be more careful and protect your own life."

    With that said, she asked her people to leave.

    Xie Dongxiang waited for her to disappear, then walked up to Lin Xuanjiu from behind and said with a complicated expression, "Mother Zhou is more sensitive to information than me. Thanks to her, otherwise I would have suffered a loss with my limited manpower."

    Lin Xuanjiu remembered that Xie Dongxiang¡¯s grandfather and Zhou¡¯s mother¡¯s backstage boss, Pingchang Wang, didn¡¯t deal with each other for a long time. He was afraid that Xie Dongxiang would think too much, so he asked cautiously.

    "She camefor me? I know her, but we don't have a close relationship."

    Seeing her frightened look, Xie Dongxiang smiled and said, "Why are you worried like this? Mother Zhou really came to save you because you are a descendant of the Zhao family. Zhao Ruting once saved the Pingchang Palace, and Mother Zhou protected you  You are also reasonable."

    After a pause, he said a few more words, "The King of Pingchang served as the chief military officer of Qinghe Prefecture in his early years. He has many connections and influence. If I can find out your mother's situation, they will definitely not be able to hide it.  .¡±

    At the end, he added, "As long as the people in Pingchang Palace have no ill intentions towards you, I don't mind your contact there."

    In the end, it was purely for An Linxuanjiu¡¯s heart.

    Hearing what Xie Dongxiang said, Lin Xuanjiu breathed a sigh of relief. She was still afraid that the young master would accuse her of having contact with Zhou's mother in private.

    While we were talking, a subordinate came to report, "Sir, the road is cleared and passable, and 'those' have been loaded onto the car."

    "Okay, got it."

    Xie Dongxiang dismissed his subordinates and turned to Lin Xuanjiu, "Someone bribed the bandits to kidnap you. Now that all the bandits have been captured, I will take them to the military camp for interrogation first. Then I will rush to the Taohualing banquet. You have to be careful when you arrive.  Everything is waiting for me."

    Lin Xuanjiu was obedient and said, "Okay, you go ahead, I will keep an eye on it myself."

       On the other hand, you also rescued Zuo and Jiang Yinyu."

    ¡°Oh, that is, Jiang Yinyu¡¯s matter, can it be brought out to attack Magistrate Jiang?

    "It's a bit despicable to use a woman's life happiness as a means. Even though Jiang Yinyu is a disgusting little girl, there is no need to be a victim of the struggle.

    As long as Jiang Mansion doesn¡¯t go too far, she doesn¡¯t have to be so extreme.

    "But as Xie Dongxiang said, he would set up an ambush on her way to the banquet. Jiang Zhanxing was definitely an insider. The banquet was probably not that peaceful.

    ???????????????????????????????????

    Lin Xuanjiu will treat any enemy with caution, but it definitely does not mean that she will be afraid of facing the enemy.

    She doesn¡¯t cause trouble and is not afraid of it.

    The carriage arrived near noon.

    The banquet was held in a village halfway up Taohua Ridge, and a middle-aged man who looked like a steward received the guests.

    Minghua handed over the invitation. The steward glanced at the post, his smile froze for a moment, and then he quickly concealed it.

    "Hey, they are the family members of the new General Xie, please come in quickly."

    He led the carriage in, handed it over to the waiter, and ran to the backyard in a hurry.

    Lin Xuan sat in the carriage for a long time, listening to Minghua's report, "The steward went to the backyard to make a report."

    Her eyes suddenly opened. She really didn't expect Jiang Zhanxing. Looking at this posture, it seemed that he was actually personally involved in kidnapping her?

    It is really a great irony that as the prefect of Qinghe Prefecture, he actually colluded with the bandits.

    I don¡¯t know if Xie Dongxiang can gain anything. With so many people arrested, there must be one or two insiders.

    Lin Xuan tightened her handkerchief for a long time, fearing that this banquet would be far more dangerous than she imagined.

    Fortunately, she was not completely unprepared. After touching the small paper bags in her sleeves, including her Huemei Powder and Itching Powder, she felt calm.

    In Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the city, land is not as valuable as in the city, and the buildings are usually very large.

    The carriage stopped in front of the back garden of the banquet, waiting in line to get off.

    It was Xie Mansion¡¯s turn for the carriage, and Lin Xuanjiu walked down holding Minghua¡¯s hand.

    Today, she was dressed more plainly than before. She only wore an emerald the size of a pigeon egg in the center of her bun, and a gray and inconspicuous plum blossom wooden hairpin at the back.

    Wearing a mint green fox fur collared jacket, paired with an emerald green fairy skirt, it brought out her pure and elegant temperament.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
