The carriage did not stop, but the speed was not very fast. Shen Lingling could clearly hear the conversation between Ji Xun and Shen Yue in the carriage.
Ji Xun: "Yu Yu, it's up to you to decide whether to take her in or not." His voice was extremely gentle, which was far different from his usual cold image. Any woman would be envious after hearing this. Who wouldn't want to have her? A man who is insulated from other women but extremely tender towards himself?
Shen Yuyu: "Husband, she is the aunt of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and she is also bringing with her the son of the Prime Minister's Mansion. If we let her follow us, if something happens and Prime Minister Zhou asks us for someone, can we afford the compensation?'
Ji Xun: "Yu Yu is right, my husband didn't think about this~~
Shen Yuyu: "Isn't that so? Why should I interfere with other people's family affairs? Husband, you'd better write a letter to tell the Prime Minister that Aunt Shen is homesick and is eager to come to Lingzhou! Let him pick her up as soon as possible, otherwise she will be out of town in Lingzhou. We don’t care about anything!”
Shen Lingling: "!" As if struck by lightning, her head buzzed, and her face turned green instantly.
If she can't sneak into the Night King's side and act as an internal agent, what's the point? There's only one way to die, and she knows Zhou Qian's ruthlessness better than anyone else.
He hurriedly asked the carriage to stop, ran over and knelt directly in front of the Night King's carriage, stopping the carriage.
"Your Majesty the Night King, the common woman knows something very important. If you are unwilling to protect the common woman, the common woman will only die. If the common woman dies, then this secret will be buried forever, and no one will ever see it again. Know.'
Shen Yuyu raised the car curtain and said nonchalantly, "What's wrong~~ Our prince is not a talkative woman and is not interested in such secrets. Aunt Shen quickly got up and got out of the way, so that people can see that the news has reached the ears of Prime Minister Zhou?"
Shen Lingling secretly cursed an idiot, is this a common secret? Prime Minister Zhou is a fake, what a big deal this is?
But she had no intention of saying it out loud, she just wanted to seduce the other person's appetite and sneak into the Night King's side! The damn thing was that this stupid woman Shen Yue was not interested at all, which made her very embarrassed.
"Aunt Shen still won't get out of the way? Don't you take the Princess's words seriously? Or are you saying that because she is the aunt of the Prime Minister's Mansion, you don't take His Highness the Night King and the Night Princess seriously?" Shadow shouted sharply.
After hearing this, Shen Lingling had to stand up and get out of the way, and then watched the Night King's carriage drive away.
Shen Xiaoshi got out of the car anxiously, ran to Shen Lingling and whispered advice in her ear.
"Sister, what secrets do you know about Prime Minister Zhou? Can't you tell His Highness the Night King and surrender to him sincerely? The Night King and the Night Queen are not bad people.'
"Prime Minister Zhou was so ruthless that he not only killed our whole family but also imprisoned you for so long. He had no intention of letting us go. Why do you still want to help him? Is it worth it?'
"Shut up." Shen Lingling's eyes turned cold, "Don't say this again, if the wet nurse hears it. Go, get in the car."
After getting on the carriage, Shen Lingling took the child from the nanny's arms and nodded slightly to her. The nanny leaned on the soft pillow with an expressionless expression and never spoke.
"Follow the carriage in front." Shen Lingling ordered the coachman, and the coachman responded. He waved his whip to speed up and followed.
In the carriage ahead, Ji Xun held Shen Yuyu in his arms and talked to her.
"Is Yu Yu trying to push Shen Lingling into a desperate situation and make her take the initiative to tell the secret when she is completely desperate?"
"Yeah." Shen Yuyu raised her eyebrows slightly, "If not, she would never have revealed that secret." After a pause, she added, "Such an extremely selfish person cannot learn to be grateful. No matter how nice you are to her She only has plans. Unless death is imminent, she may trade this secret for her own life. "
"Then I will write a letter to the Prime Minister's Office tonight, and send a few other people with high kung fu skills to follow her," Ji Xundao said.
"Just do it like this." Shen Yuyu raised her pretty face and winked at Ji Xun, "Tell the secret guards, if Shen Lingling is assassinated, don't take action until the last moment, just let her breathe.'
"Okay." Ji Xun pinched Shen Yuyu's pink cheeks affectionately, "You can be saved anyway."

After leaving Wantian County and heading north, the road became smoother and smoother as we walked, the snow stopped, and the sun melted the ice and snow.
After all, it is the southernmost territory of Dasheng Kingdom. Even a snowfall will not last for a few days. The ice and snow will start to melt as soon as the sun rises. Unlike the capital city, which can stay frozen for two or three months.
After resting for a few nights on the road, we arrived a hundred miles outside Kang'an City.
Kang'an City has a flat terrain, underdeveloped commerce, and mainly agriculture, with endless flat fields as far as the eye can see.
As we were walking, the carriage suddenly stopped.
"What's going on?" Shen Yuyu was sleeping in her husband's arms. She heard Ji Xun suddenly make a sound, so she changed to a comfortable position and continued sleeping.
"The road ahead is blocked, I'm going to see what's going on." Shadow said as he got off the carriage. They were incognito for this trip, and only Shadow Lin Yi and a few guards dressed as followers were with them.
Not long after, the shadow came back.
"Your Highness, someone in front fainted, causing the road to be blocked."
"Someone has fainted? Then go and have a look." Shen Yuyu woke up almost instantly. It is a habit developed in modern times that whenever she hears that someone is sick, her duty and mission will prompt her to cheer up.
After getting off the bus, I saw a dozen farm men in front of me, holding hoes and poles, looking at the people lying on the ground with indifferent expressions. Not only did no one help them, but some people said that they should just die here, saying that they deserved it. Category!
"Don't you have parents at home? How can you be so indifferent?" Shen Yuyu couldn't stand it anymore, scolded the men who were watching, and stepped forward to check the pulses of the elderly people who fell to the ground.
This pulse is strange, there is no disease at all!
What's the matter?
"Uncle and auntie, what are you doing lying on the ground when you are not sick?" Although the sun has shone for a few days and the snow on the road has melted and it is quite dry, it is still cold. Is it good for your health to lie on the ground like this?
"Who said we are not sick? My feet are broken!" An old man twisted his feet into a deformed fox shape, with a look of pain on his face, "It was all because of them! If you don't pay me fifty taels of silver, I will let you go." I can die here.'
Shen Yuxi hurriedly went up to check the uncle. After the examination, everything was normal. Is this a mistake?
Just as they were wondering, the farmers began to complain.
It turned out that they were nearby villagers. The cabbage and radishes they grew along the road were robbed by residents from the city every year. In order to stop these people, they had to organize personnel to guard them.
But there were too many people participating in the robbery. As soon as they arrived, everyone dispersed, and the few who were caught were lying on the ground pretending to be sick, trying to blackmail them.
Just as he was talking, countless vehicles came from the direction of the city. As soon as these vehicles stopped, many old men and women got off the carriages and rushed into the fields with sacks.
When you see cabbage, you cut it, and when you see radish, you plow it. There is chaos in the fields, with hundreds of people.
Such a blatant robbery in broad daylight is really eye-opening.
Seeing the helpless and helpless faces of the farm men, Shen Yuhu and Ji Xun walked towards those people.
I stopped an old lady and asked, "Do the cabbage and radishes in this field belong to your family? Do you just come and harvest them?"
The aunt said confidently: "Some people say that they can be picked up if they are damaged by the snow. Please give way and don't block my way." The aunt said and pushed Shen Yuyu away. She quickly filled a sack and carried it. In the car, he took out a few sacks and hurriedly headed into the fields.
