Chapter 66 Play! They Met Robbers!
But this letter was intercepted by Shuo Ling. After reading it, he couldn’t help sneering. What the Duke of Mu did was really watertight.
So, he took the letter to find Yang Zijin, “Have a look. The Duke of Mu gave it to you.”
Yang Zijin opened the letter and saw the words, “Everything is ready. Come to my home tonight to discuss.”
“How is it? Would you like me to accompany you tonight?”
“If I said no, would not Marquis Shuo go?” Yang Zijin asked back.
At this time, Shuo Ling dragged Yang Zijin in his arms and couldn’t help but peck her on her face, “You know me well.”
It was getting dark. When all was quiet at dead of night, Shuo Ling took Yang Zijin to enter the mansion of Duke Mu from the wall of the backyard.
The Duke of Mu had well arranged. They did not see lights on or a servant at this moment.
They walked forward. At a corner, they saw a room with light. So, they walked towards the room.
Pushing open the door, Yang Zijin saw Li Mingzi sitting beside the Duke of Mu, and Mu Yunong was standing behind them.
Looking aside, Mu Qiu, the only son of the Duke of Mu, was also here. It seemed that the Duke of Mu thought highly of them!
Seeing her come in, Li Mingzi pretended to be happy and walked up to Yang Zijin, pulling Yang Zijin, “Welcome, child. Come here and sit down.”
Unexpectedly, Yang Zijin pushed her away and went to the seat to sit down.
Li Mingzi couldn’t help but scold Yang Zijin in her heart. This little bastard hadn’t been a part of this family yet. Yang Zijin even despised her like this. Because of the presence of the Duke of Mu, Li Mingzi suppressed the unhappiness in her heart and kept smiling on her face. She couldn’t let the Duke of Mu have any more objection to her.
Then she said to Shuo Ling, who was still standing, “Please also sit down, Marquis Shuo!”
But Marquis Shuo didn’t even look at her. He went straight to Yang Zijin and sat down.
Li Mingzi was left to stand lonely, feeling embarrassed!
“Sit down!” Said the Duke of Mu on the side.
Li Mingzi had no way but to walk back and sit down. She just felt that every step was heavy.
Standing aside, Mu Qiu saw all. Yang Zijin dared to despise his mother like this. After Yang Zijin was a part of this family, he would make Yang Zijin suffer a lot!
“Now that you are here, I’ll talk about tomorrow’s plan.” The Duke of Mu looked at Yang Zijin and said.
Yang Zijin didn’t say anything and just nodded.
“The plan is like this. Zijin will go traveling out of the city with some people tomorrow and follow the route given by me. On this road, there are people I have arranged in advance to rob you. You take the carriage I prepare in advance. When the horse is shocked, it will rush to the cliff.” The Duke of Mu said.
Then he hurriedly said, “But Zijin doesn’t need to worry. In the carriage, I will arrange the masters in advance. Before the carriage falls, you will be rescued from the carriage. At that time, you will take the medicine of feigning death.”
“At that moment, the people who I arrange to rob you will retreat. You just wait for the people around to take you back to the Blossoming Peach.” Seeing that Yang Zijin was silent, the Duke of Mu continued.
“When it’s night, I will let people quietly enter the Blossoming Peach to make the watchman comatose and take the antidote for you. There is a house outside the imperial city which is prepared in advance. Mu Qiu will take you here first. After everything is settled, you will restore your identity and return to the city with great fanfare. How do you feel?” The Duke of Mu said the plan and asked Yang Zijin.
But before Yang Zijin spoke, Shuo Ling said, “The Duke of Mu is well thought out. Please let me choose the people on the carriage who will protect Zijin’s safety!”
Bowing his head and thinking for a while, the Duke of Mu thought that Shuo Ling didn’t have a bad heart for Yang Zijin these days, so he nodded and agreed!
After Shuo Ling and Yang Zijin left.
When Mu Yunong heard about the antidote, she knew that what Qiao Shu said was true. She couldn’t help but think again in her heart.
So, she said to the Duke of Mu, “Dad, just let me take the antidote for my sister. I will do it well.”
The Duke of Mu originally wanted to refuse. But on second thought, in the beginning, there was some contradiction between the two sisters. Maybe this was a good opportunity for them to get along with.
So he nodded and agreed. But his thought almost killed Yang Zijin!
Seeing the Duke of Mu agreed, Mu Yunong was very excited. Of course, it was not because she would make up with Yang Zijin.
Sitting there, Li Mingzi also didn’t know why Mu Yunong wanted to do this in person, but she didn’t think much about it. Just now, seeing the master’s face with a happy smile, she thought that Yunong could take over the task. It was time that they made the master change his view on them.
…
It was already over 11 p.m. when they came back to the mansion of Marquis. Shuo Ling told her something again, then he asked her to have a rest.
Back in the room, Shuo Ling ordered Mo Li to call Jiang Wei.
“Marquis, what can I do for you?” Asked Jiang Wei.
Then Shuo Ling told Jiang Wei about tomorrow’s thing. After that, he told her again and again, “Tomorrow, you must pay great attention to everything. You must protect Yang Zijin at all times. Especially after she faints, you must not let her out of your sight.”
“Yes, sir.” Jiang Wei promised.
Ordering all, Shuo Ling rubbed his forehead and said, “You could leave first!”
Before dawn, Yang Zijin and Jiang Wei came to the Blossoming Peach. She asked Jiang Wei to watch the carriages at the door and walked in alone.
She came to the backyard and walked into Xian’s room, waking up Xian.
Xian rubbed his eyes and asked, “Why did you come so early, Young Master?”
“These days, all people are busy with business. Now the business is stable, so I want to make all people go touring a day out of the city!” Looking at Xian who was trippy, Yang Zijin said.
Hearing Yang Zijin’s words, Xian immediately came fully awake. Did he hear it wrong? He said, “Will we go out of the city to play?”
“Yes, you go to hang a sign that suspends business at the entrance of the store and the park. After you finish it, you ask others to get up and gather at the gate.” Yang Zijin continued.
After making sure he didn’t hear it wrong, Xian almost jumped out of bed. “OK, I’ll do it right away.”
He quickly put on his coat. He staggered out before he could wear his shoes well.
After thinking for a moment, Yang Zijin thought that since she was acting, she had to do it well. So, she shouted to Xian who ran out, “Don’t forget to call the scholars in the nearby school!”
“Okay.” Without stopping his steps, Xian responded.
She thought that these people would be sad for her for some time after today, and madam Yang would also be sad. She didn’t have the heart to do this thing. But on second thought, only in this way could she protect these people’s lives.
So, she went back to the carriage and waited for Xian to inform them.
Here, seeing that Xian let them get up early in the morning, firstly, girls asked him unhappily what happened.
When Xian said that Yang Zijin would take them out of the city to play, they all got up and dressed up. Since they entered the Jing City, they really hadn’t stepped out of the city. Everyone was very happy!
It was just dawning, and the girls and scholars gathered in front of the door of the Blossoming Peach.
“Are you happy to go out and play today?” Getting up and walking forward, Yang Zijin asked.
They all said, “Happy.”
“Okay, let’s get on the carriages and get out of the city.”
As soon as Yang Zijin finished speaking, the girls quickly rushed to the carriages.
Seeing these happy girls, Yang Zijin decided that she must find a time to take these girls to play out of the city for a few days after this thing was finished.
Jiang Wei arranged for these people to get into the carriages and went back to the carriage of Yang Zijin. Then they went towards the gate of the city.
Seeing that Yang Zijin was full of worries, Jiang Wei cannot help comforting and saying, “Young master, Wei is here. You can rest assured, and nothing will happen.”
“You should also pay attention to your safety later.” Yang Zijin smiled and told Jiang Wei.
Yang Zijin was not worried whether Jiang Wei could protect her. In fact, when she asked Jiang Wei to investigate Pingting, she knew that Jiang Wei was highly skilled.
She was worried that these days when she couldn’t show up, the girls in the Blossoming Peach would be low-spirited. Maybe the business of the Blossoming Peach and the Woman Flower would be abandoned because of this.
Following the route given by the Duke of Mu, they had been out of the city for some distance. At this time, a carriage behind accelerated to the side of the carriage of Yang Zijin. They went forward side by side.
“Young master, can you stop for a while? I want to relieve myself. I can’t hold on any longer.”
Yang Zijin heard Ni Chang’s voice.
“Let all drivers stop and let’s get out and have a little exercise.” Yang Zijin ordered Jiang Wei.
Jiang Wei jumped out of the carriage and ordered others. The girls also got out of the carriages.
At this time, several girls came to the carriage of Yang Zijin and asked, “Where are we going, young master?”
“Just follow me. Are you afraid that I will sell you?” Yang Zijin replied with a smile.
“Let’s get on the carriages quickly, and don’t delay anymore.” Seeing that all girls were Okay, Jiang Wei reminded.
She firstly came into the carriage while saying.
At this time, a group of strong men with big swords rushed out from the side and surrounded them!
The girls all screamed with fear, and the scholars who came with them were also frightened. At this time, Wufu summoned up the courage to ask, “You… what are you going to do?”
“What to do? Can’t you see that? We want to rob money!”
As soon as they heard that these men were going to rob money, the girls were a little overwhelmed. “But… but we came out in a hurry, and we didn’t bring any money.”
“No money? Then leave the valuable jewelry you carry.” A strong man said.
Liu Ye, who firstly calmed down, said to the strong man, “Do you still know any laws? You even dare to rob money here.”
“Hum, laws, I am the law on this road.” After saying, the man came to Liu Ye with a big sword and put it on his neck.
The girls were so frightened that they burst into tears.
The strong man said again, “If anyone dared to resist, the person would be like this.”
While saying, he stabbed the horse which was belonged to the carriage of Yang Zijin.
The horse was frightened and ran straight ahead!
When Xian and others saw this, they felt worse. They were eager to catch up.
