Two teams of guards came over first, shouting at pedestrians to give in.
The crowd dispersed, and a large carriage appeared at the end of the street. The open carriage, with the gauze covering the canopy above, concealed everything in the carriage. Only someone could be seen faintly leaning inside, and I don't know.
men and women.
Behind the carriage, two teams of armored soldiers rode on horses of the same color.
"Such a huge display? Which prince is this?" Leshi couldn't help but asked in surprise. Such a large display did not look like an ordinary family at first glance.
"It doesn't look like a prince." Yu Xijiao shook her head.
"How could a prince not... have such a huge formation?" Leshi took a breath.
Mr. Xie from Jiangnan is very low-key. No matter in life or work, Mr. Le has never seen such high-profile behavior.
Yu Xijiao's eyes fell on the slowly approaching carriage, her eyes flickered slightly, and she was also guessing whether this person could be the Crown Prince of Qi.
It would be a good thing to see the prince now.
She would not allow any mistakes in her brother's affairs. If she could first ask the prince for the bodyguard promised to her, her brother would be safer.
With this in mind, he stood up with his hands on the window, thinking about how to calmly make the prince stop.
"Hey!" Leshi suddenly said, "Which family is this girl so brave?"
A sachet just slipped in front of Yu Xijiao and landed on the canopy of the carriage.
The gauze on the canopy shook, unable to bear the weight, and slowly slid down.
A guard stepped forward and took the sachet, then raised his head and looked over. Yu Xijiao felt the guard's eyes sweeping over her.
"Your Majesty, someone threw something down from above." After the guard looked in this direction, he frowned and stepped forward to report.
"Who?" came a lazy voice from the carriage.
"Looking from here, you can see the three windows above." The guard reported. He had just looked at it, and he could see people in the three windows next to each other, and they were all young girls.
, I don’t know who dared to throw the sachet on the hood of the prince’s car.
The sachet is relatively heavy and not like ordinary sachets. It should have some weight.
"Take it apart." The voice in the carriage said calmly.
"Yes!" The guard responded to the order and stepped back. After throwing the sachet on the ground, he pulled out the long sword from his waist and pointed it at the sachet twice. The guard cautiously took a few steps back.
People on both sides screamed and stepped back. The sachet was broken. There were a few scattered pieces of silver inside, and then there was something like a handkerchief. It was fragrant. When you smell the elegant incense, you know that it is not something that ordinary girls can use.
s things.
The guard skillfully picked up the veil with the tip of his sword. After shaking it left and right, he felt that there was nothing unusual. Then he reached out to take it off, put the sword into its sheath, turned back to the car and reported inside: "Your Majesty, this is a veil."
"The women in the capital are so enthusiastic, I would like to meet them." A hand was stretched out from the carriage and patted the carriage gently. The carriage stopped, and two guards came forward and lifted the canopy and let it fall down.
of gauze.
A chamberlain helped a handsome young man walk down from the carriage. His face was handsome and natural. Only the corner of his lips looked a little pale. The handsome young man with a clean temperament made the people around him unable to hold back for a while as soon as he got off the carriage.
There was a commotion, no one expected that the prince who got off the carriage would look so good.
Seeing such a handsome and refined young man getting off the carriage, the people around him couldn't help but gasped.
After getting off the carriage, a wheelchair rolled over. The young master sat down and raised his sharp chin to look up. Yu Xijiao looked at the Prince of Qi in astonishment. She couldn't react for a moment. She was thinking.
Somehow, this guy really got off the carriage.
"Which family's girl dared to do such a thing? It is said that the daughters of aristocratic families in the capital are different from those in the south of the Yangtze River. They are more courageous." Leshi looked at it with interest and looked around deliberately. She didn't pay attention just now.
Which window did this sachet fall from?
But it's either left or right, it should be on both sides.
But I don’t know which family this girl is the daughter of, and whether their identities are worthy of each other?
"Second aunt, let me go and take a look." Yu Xijiao said, "This shop is mine now."
"I'll go with you." Leshi felt uneasy after hearing what she said.
"Second aunt, if nothing happens, I will go down and take a look secretly without showing up." Yu Xi said softly, how could she let go of such a good opportunity.
Regardless of whether Prince Qi came here on purpose or had other intentions, this is the only chance to see him now.
She was not in a hurry about the guard matter originally, but now her brother's matter was urgent. Yu Xijiao wished that Prince Qi would send someone to her now.
I'm going down now just to ask for such a person.
Seeing what she said, Leshi didn't insist. This shop belongs to Jiao'er. She will encounter all kinds of things in the future. She has to let her slowly learn to deal with it by herself. Anyway, she is here. If it really
If there's anything you can't handle, just come forward yourself.
Yu Xijiao put on her curtain hat and came out of the private room with Qingyue. After going down two floors, she saw a group of people coming up from below. Among them was the person sitting on a wheelchair carried by several guards.
Feng Yu.
Yu Xijiao avoided the stairs.
When the group of people below came up, Yu Xijiao suddenly said softly: "Guard!"
Feng Yu glanced sideways at Yu Xijiao and said lazily: "Embrace the treasure."
"The servant is here." A chamberlain responded hurriedly.
"Leave one person here." Feng Yu's lips curved slightly, and he seemed to be in a good mood. Today's Prince Qi was a gentle and elegant young master, and he had already gone upstairs as he spoke.
After the chamberlain was stunned for a moment, he called a guard and stayed where he was. Steward Qi came over sweating profusely. He had just been busy inside and got the news a little late.
The chamberlain stretched out his hand and stopped Steward Qi: "Who are you and what's the matter with you?"
"I am the steward here. When distinguished guests come, I should welcome them." Steward Qi wiped his sweat and said.
"Our prince can go around alone, we don't need anyone to accompany him." The chamberlain said with a smile, looking at He Shan, it was actually not easy to talk to him.
Manager Qi looked at Yu Xijiao subconsciously.
Yu Xijiao nodded calmly, and Manager Qi did not insist. He bowed to the waiter and stepped back.
"Third Miss?" The waiter turned around with a smile.
Yu Xijiao nodded.
The chamberlain reached out and patted the shoulder of the guard in front of him, then turned around and went up with a smile. The guard and Yu Xijiao were left alone in front of the stairs.
Yu Xijiao continued walking down, Qingyue followed her, and the guard turned around and followed her.
This guard did not wear armor and was dressed like ordinary people. He was not conspicuous when he went downstairs.
Yu Xijiao led the guards downstairs. Manager Qi was waiting downstairs. Qingyue took two steps forward and whispered a few words into Manager Qi's ear. After understanding, Manager Qi led them to the accounting room downstairs.
After everyone else had retreated, Yu Xijiao looked at the guard in front of her. He was an ordinary-looking guard with ordinary clothes, an ordinary face, and an ordinary demeanor. Only when he looked up, there was a hint of coldness and cruelty.
They are guards who have been on the battlefield. They are different from ordinary guards. In the past, the soldiers who followed Zheng Yuanhou back from the battlefield almost all had this trait.
"My subordinate has met Miss Yu." The guard stepped forward and saluted Yu Xijiao, which showed that the arrangement had been made in advance.
Yu Xijiao breathed a sigh of relief. She was afraid that things were rushed and Feng Yu didn't prepare the manpower. The deployment was not enough for a while, but now, it is the best.
"Do you know about my affairs?" Yu Xijiao smiled slightly and asked openly.
The other party has recognized her, that's the best thing.
"My subordinate understands. I will help you find the young prince and then go to Qidi." The guard said calmly.
"Things have changed. You may need to change your actions. I wonder... is that possible?" Yu Xijiao asked.
"It's all according to the third girl's orders." The guard handed over his hand.
Seeing him like this, it must have been the order from Prince Qi, so Yu Xijiao said: "The young prince may not be in Jiangnan. He will be in the capital in the next few days. I have to trouble you to guard the city gate. If you see the young prince,
Stop the person first, I'm afraid someone will harm the lives of the young prince."
"Go outside the city gate now?" the guard said in shock.
"Yes, go now. I have steward Qi here to go with you. The two of you can also prepare the most suitable method. Be sure to have someone watching at all times." Yu Xijiao said, clapped her hands gently.
Steward Qi opened the door and came in.
The guard looked at Steward Qi up and down and said, "Okay!"
"Manager Qi, this is..." Yu Xijiao paused and asked, "Can I ask what you call me?"
"eighteen!"
This didn't sound like a name, but more like a ranking. Yu Xijiao's heart moved slightly, and she couldn't help but look at Shiba a few more times, and then said: "Manager Qi, you and Shiba will guard the city gate together.
, there must be no slacking off, if you see anything wrong..."
At this point, Yu Xijiao gritted her teeth, lowered her long eyelashes, and covered up the trace of hatred in her eyes: "If you see someone doing something wrong, you can arrest him first."
"Can I take their lives?" Shiba said with an unmoving expression.
"Okay!" Yu Xijiao said without hesitation, a dark red flashed in her eyes, those people wanted her younger brother's life.
"Yes!" Shiba responded.
Yu Xijiao didn't let them stay any longer, and after a few more words, she let them leave first.
Manager Qi temporarily entrusted the affairs of the store to Mr. Li, the accountant. After asking Mr. Li to come and pay homage to the new owner, Manager Qi left with Shiba.
Seeing them leaving, Yu Xijiao breathed a sigh of relief. She was most worried about her younger brother, and now she had double insurance for her younger brother.
Taking Qingyue back upstairs, she saw Mr. Wang coming up from the stairs with a sad face. When he saw Yu Xijiao, he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "My boss."
"What happened?" Yu Xijiao raised her eyes and looked up, her heart slightly moved. Feng Yu didn't look like someone who came here just for a woman's sachet.
"My boss, this... the daughter of a noble family fell on this!" Mr. Wang reported.
