In the western outskirts of the city, Zuo Xiang Chen Shu's family is about to leave under the escort of officers and soldiers.

Chen Huang only ordered the exile of his direct branch, and he couldn't tell whether it was good or bad; next to him was Li Xuan, the right minister, and there were more than 30 people from the two families, all of whom were ashamed in the cold wind.

Li Xuan and Chen Shu stood side by side at the front, the former tentatively said: "Master Chen, I heard that His Majesty still wants us to look for iron-eating beasts..."

Chen Shu and Li Xuan have completely different personalities. Li Xuan is tactful and cautious, while Chen Shu is upright and impulsive, but both of them are extremely talented officials.

When Chen Shu heard this, he was so angry that he almost fell on his back: "Food, iron-eating beast? Your majesty told us to find the iron-eating beast?"

Hearing that Chen Shu's voice was raised, Li Xuan had already attracted several officers and soldiers to look over, and quickly pulled Chen Shu's sleeve to signal him to keep his voice down.

At this time, a small soldier ran to the officer in charge of escorting, whispered something in his ear, the leader officer nodded, and walked towards the two prime ministers, Li Xuan and Chen Shu looked at each other, both a little confused .

"My lords, the Lord of Heyang County was ordered by His Majesty to go to Shu Prefecture to look for iron-eating beasts. His Majesty regretted that the Lord was alone and ordered her to go with us."

After that, the soldier lowered his voice and added: "Don't worry, both of you, the Lord Heyang said that the kindness of dripping water will be repaid by the spring, and she entrusted us to take care of you along the way."

Chen Shu and Li Xuan were a little surprised, but more puzzled—why did His Majesty send a woman to Shuzhou to look for iron-eating beasts?Why did the Lord of Heyang County say "the kindness of dripping water will be repaid by the spring"?

Wait, isn't the Lord of Heyang County the younger sister of Lord Zhen Guo?Could it be that this move was signaled by Lord Zhen Guo?

Not to mention how these two people conspired in their minds, Shang Shaoyan soon arrived at the place where the two were stationed.

Both Chen Shu and Li Xuan stared warily at the low-key but luxurious carriage. A green-clothed maid got out of the carriage first, and then helped down a bright and colorful girl. Two or three pearls, wearing a green plum-colored skirt, white half-arms, lotus-colored drape, slender figure, a pair of sharp phoenix eyes looking over casually, the majesty exuding inside made them dare not look more .

The girl was Shang Shaoyan, and she walked forward in twos and threes, and saluted Chen Shu and Li Xuan: "My lords, go to Shuzhou Mountain High Road far away, what do you lack and need, just talk to Heyang , Heyang is prepared."

The two looked at each other, and to be honest, even if they thought it was fraudulent, they couldn't get angry in the face of such a modest, polite, generous girl who was about the same age as their granddaughter.

Li Xuan reacted the fastest, and quickly thanked Shang Shaoyan: "Thank you for taking care of the government of Zhen Guo."

Shang Shaoyan sneered in his heart, "Old fox", did he think he was stupid?But she still had a gentle smile on her face: "Master Li was joking, but Heyang's move was out of selfishness... The two adults may not know that Heyang was divorced by the Cheng'en government in the past. Helped my elder brother and me so that we could not be bullied. I went to Shuzhou not only to look for iron-eating beasts, but also to seek medical treatment for my elder brother, so I should take care of you along the way."

Chen Shu has always been outspoken, but he is not a reckless person. Hearing this, he suppressed his desire to inquire, and only asked tentatively, "Which junior is he in the next family?"

Shang Shaoyan was also straightforward: "It is your grandson Chen Wulang and Li Liulang from Mr. Li's family."

Chen Shu and Li Xuan suddenly realized—these two loved to hang around Shang Yunlan, and they had warned that the King of Nan'an might attack the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, and told them not to get involved in the muddy water... At that time, who Can you imagine things will become like this?

Thinking of this, the two of them couldn't help but blush. They only cared about being wise and protecting themselves, but they didn't think that others were generous and repaying their kindness. This made them very ashamed.

Seeing this, Shang Shaoyan immediately understood what they were thinking, and immediately felt a little funny, but he didn't point it out after all, he just nodded slightly and said: "It's getting late, if you don't leave again, I'm afraid you won't be able to reach the post before dark, wait for the two adults to rest OK, let's go."

……

At the same time, Nan'an County Palace.

Nan'an King Zhao Ming looked at the servant kneeling in front of him with a gloomy face, and his voice was cold like a poisonous snake: "Say what you just said carefully again."

The man kowtowed, trembling: "Master Huijun, the Lord of Heyang County has already left Shengjing, Lord Zhen Guo just entered the palace and said something, His Majesty sent another five hundred elite soldiers to escort the Lord of Heyang County."

Zhao Ming was almost pissed off, and he laughed back in anger: "Okay, what a Duke of Zhen, what a Duke of Zhen!"

His complexion was a little distorted, and he stared at the servant with a sinister gaze, before narrowing his eyes for a long while: "What else did you hear?"

The servant kowtowed again, almost fainting from fear: "Slave, I didn't hear anything else."

Zhao Ming was furious, and immediately kicked that person away: "Useless trash!"

After the others dragged the half-dead servant down, Zhao Ming sat back on the reclining chair, a trace of cruelty appeared on his soft and cold face.

He thought for a while and returned to the study. There was already someone waiting for him in the study. It was an old man who looked like a fairy and a hale and hearty man. He was closing his eyes at the moment, leaning on the chair and thinking deeply.

A hint of sarcasm flashed in Zhao Ming's eyes, but soon he lowered his head and said in a respectful voice, "Mr. Ye, just now His Majesty dispatched five hundred elite soldiers to escort Heyang County Lord, is there any serious problem?"

Mr. Ye opened his eyes, glanced at Zhao Ming, and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry, the Lord Heyang County is only a woman, let alone five hundred elite soldiers, even fifty elite soldiers, she can't manage well, the scene will only become more chaotic , you can rest assured and cut the weeds and roots.”
