blood, and these soldiers have a good sense of smell. We must be extra careful and use the stench to cover up the bloody scent on him. Besides, I actually have another plan."This play, if things go as...Some in black realized that if they continued, they would surely die. They wanted to turn and run, but they dared to cause trouble, how could Feng and the others let them leave so easily
They wanted to retreat, but were stopped by Xunluo and others. Sure enough, after a while, all of these black-clad men died without exception.
Feng Ming looked up and glanced at the several corners not far away. A sarcastic smile curled at the corner of his mouth, then he took out a square handkerchief and slowly wiped the blood off his sword. After putting it away, he jumped back onto his horse and said, "Let's go."
He said this, and everyone acted as if nothing had happened, continuing on their journey to the Duke of Anle's mansion calmly and without haste.
An Xuetang had already seen everything that was happening outside through the curtains of the carriage. The ten or so black men who came were not very skilled in martial arts.
Ning'er pursed her lips and then spoke, "Those people just now were merely sent to die. They wanted to use them to probe our strength."
They had been lying in wait for so long, of course they wouldn't dare to act rashly and come out all at once to die.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the elder brother dealt with these people easily. Those who were still watching probably stopped and hesitated, afraid to act rashly.
But they will still find opportunities to make their move, but today's plan is for them to act.
Today, whether they can successfully leave the city depends on this group of people, who will create trouble and chaos for them.
So these people's actions were also within her plan. However, she still felt a little sorry for Xiaoqin. Today's trip out of the city was bound to cause some trouble for Xiaoqin.
Although she had already made it clear that no matter what happened today, Xia Qin's safety as the bride must be guaranteed, every woman cares deeply about a wedding ceremony.
It's ill-omened for people of this day and age to see bloodshed on this very day.
It could even affect Xiaoqin's reputation. Thinking of this, An Xuetang frowned and suddenly said, "
After you find a chance, talk to the people from Qingyun Pavilion and ask them to send more people to protect Ye Er and Xiao Qin.
Ye adults is now a popular figure in the capital, and there are countless people who want to harm him. Especially the emperor, who now suspects him. Ye adult's situation is dangerous.
Ninger knew that their empress was trying to compensate Ye Er and Xiao Qin in a roundabout way. She nodded at this moment, "Yes, the maidservant understands."
An Xuetang's forces arrived at the residence of Marquis Anle in a mighty and imposing manner.
Madam Hou clearly didn't expect An Xuetang to actually come. Her face instantly crinkled into a smile, completely disregarding her noble lady image. She pushed aside the maidservant beside her and rushed over: "Northern Border Princess, you've finally arrived! I am so grateful for your presence. You've instantly brightened up this humble abode. Welcome, welcome! Thank you so much for coming to attend my daughter's wedding. Qiner would be overjoyed to know that you personally came to send her off."
Lady Hou was afraid that others wouldn't know, and as An Xuetang was getting out of the carriage, she acted like the Princess Consort of Beijiang. She intentionally spoke loudly, making An Xuetang frown.
Before she came, Ning'er and the others had told her about Madam Hou's absurd behavior in recent days, but after only a few months apart, she even questioned it.
After all, the Madam Hou described by Ning'er and the others was completely different from the one she had met before. The Madam Hou she had seen previously was elegant, graceful, and very tasteful, a typical image of a noblewoman in Beijing.
But today, Madam Hou gave her a bad feeling. Her smoothness and worldliness were immediately apparent, making her feel uneasy.
But on this joyous occasion, An Xue Tang was too lazy to care about anything. Left and right, Xiao Qin would be married to the Ye Residence today, and afterwards, with Ye Er protecting her, it's unlikely that Madam Hou would cause any major trouble.
This Ye Er is not a man who can tolerate his own wife being wronged or bullied.
Thinking this way, An Xuetang revealed a faint smile and nodded, politely speaking, "This noble consort was just bored in the manor. With such a joyous event finally happening in the capital, I thought I'd come to share in the good fortune. I hope I haven't caused any inconvenience for the Houfu"
"No, no, Your Highness, anytime you come is fine."
Lady Hou was chuckling happily, while beside her, Brother Xiao of the Xiao family twitched his lips, wishing he could disappear into the ground.
I just don't understand how my own mother could become like this. Is power really that important
So important that a person is willing to change even their own nature So important that a person can abandon even their most important face
Fearing that his own mother might say something that would affect the Northern Border Princess, he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Your Highness, I have asked someone to bring you to Qiner's courtyard first."
An Xuetang didn't know what Shao Family Big Brother looked like, so when she heard someone speaking, she instinctively glanced over.
At this moment, the madam immediately reacted, “Oh my, look at my old mind! Princess, don't take offense. This is my eldest son, the heir apparent of our Marquisate.”
Only then did An Xuetang realize this was Xiao Family's eldest brother. He was indeed a handsome and talented man, looking like an honest person. No wonder Xiao Qin was ultimately willing to compromise for her two older brothers. She must have thought it worthwhile to do so much for them.
Upon learning of Xiao Family Elder Brother's identity, An Xue Tang gave him a slight nod in acknowledgment but did not respond to Madam Hou's words.
Xiao Jia's elder brother immediately sent over a few maids to lead An Xue Tang.
Feng Ming had always been by An Xue Tang's side as a bodyguard, but now he was going to the back garden of the An Le Hou Mansion. Even after entering the mansion, An Xue Tang still turned around and said, "Brother, you stay outside and guard."
Feng Ming hummed in response, understanding the situation. Men weren't allowed into women's quarters. He looked at Ning'er and said solemnly, "Be careful."
"Yes."
Ning'er responded with a sound and then, along with An Xuetang, entered the back garden of Anle Houfu. The two went straight to Xiaoqin's courtyard.
Xia Qin truly didn't expect An Xue Tang to come and send her off on her wedding day. At this time, many young ladies from prominent families in the capital had also arrived at her courtyard.
She certainly knew these people weren't truly there to send her off with good intentions. Their arrival was merely due to pressure from their elders at home.
Just because Ye Er is now famous in the capital and a well-known favorite of the emperor, everyone wants to curry favor with her.
As soon as she married into the Ye family, she became the mistress of the house, the only female master of the Ye family. That's why these people are here to curry favor with her.
Before An Xuetang arrived, she merely maintained a peaceful facade with these people, listening to their insincere compliments one after another.
When she saw An Xue Tang, she was immediately shocked and stunned for a moment.
After regaining her composure, she immediately ordered the maids to send all the young ladies to another room, letting them chat and enjoy tea and refreshments. She didn't care at all if this would offend these wealthy daughters. to go up the mountain."He then pointed out a shortcut to Han Yun for going up the mountain, and told him how to walk so as to avoid the troops of the Red Nation.After Mo Yunjing finished explaining,...
