Mu Yun'an expressed her guess, but even she was shocked. If this was true, wouldn't Jingzhou be in danger?
Xiao Chengyi narrowed his eyes and said, "Fortunately, I didn't ask dad to come with me."
Mu Rufeng originally wanted to come with them, but he was afraid that no one would respond, so he stayed in Tongcheng to wait for news about them.
If the Sun family was really training troops in Jingzhou, then the cavalry brought back by Mu Rufeng would come in handy.
He said: "I will send a message to dad right now and ask him to mobilize his troops and wait for the news."
Xiao Chengyi didn't waste any time and immediately wrote a letter and had it delivered.
Because it was getting late, they did not continue their journey and rested at this farmhouse for the night.
The next day, several of them arrived at Jingzhou City.
I just didn't expect that there were guards guarding the city. Seeing that they came in large numbers, the guards stopped people and asked, "What do you do?"
Xiao Chengyi said: "We came to Jingzhou to join our relatives."
The guard took a book from the table and asked, "Who are your relatives and where do they live?"
Xiao Chengyi was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect the investigation to be so strict.
Of course they don't have any relatives in Jingzhou, so they can make one up.
However, looking at the book in the guard's hand, it must be a directory of the people of Jingzhou.
If he had known earlier, he should have said he was here for business.
Just as I was thinking about it, I saw a carriage slowly approaching here. There were bells hanging on the carriage, and there was a sweet sound when it moved.
When the guard saw the carriage, he hurriedly walked over and saluted: "Miss, you are back."
"Um."
The man in the carriage opened the curtain, revealing a pretty little face.
She glanced at Xiao Chengyi and others and asked the guard: "Who are they?"
The guard said: "These people said they came to Jingzhou to join their relatives."
"oh?"
The girl in the carriage said in a low voice: "I wonder which family you are running to?"
Xiao Chengyi cupped his hands towards her and said, "To be honest, our brothers' ancestors are from Jingzhou, and they fled and never returned.
As the saying goes, fallen leaves return to their roots, and my father’s last wish was for us to return to Jingzhou and take root here again, so we dragged our family here.”
The woman in the car nodded: "I see, then you can go in."
"Thank you, miss."
Xiao Chengyi thanked him, and then he saw Mu Yun'an take something out of his arms and hand it to the girl, saying, "Thank you very much, Miss. I can't repay your small kindness, so please accept it with a smile."
The girl was curious and accepted what Mu Yun'an handed her, and it turned out to be a hot roasted sweet potato.
She smiled: "Thank you."
After collecting the things, she said to them: "If you need anything, you can come to the Sun family and give me my name. I am Sun Shurong, the young lady of the Sun family."
Mu Yun'an said in surprise: "It turns out to be Miss Sun. On the way here, we often heard people mention that there was a Sun Dashan in Jingzhou, and they also said that the Miss Sun family was the reincarnation of a Bodhisattva. It turned out to be true when we saw her today."
Sun Shurong was very happy when she heard this: "Madam, you are so complimentary, Shurong doesn't dare to accept it."
She nodded briefly and said, "I'm going back first. If you have anything, you can come to Sun's house to see me."
Mu Yunan thanked her and watched the Miss Sun family leave.
Several people followed the carriage into the city. Mu Yunan said to Jiang Ru: "Follow and take a look, be careful."
Jiang Ru nodded and followed the carriage.
Ye Xiuchen didn't know why: "Sister-in-law, why did you ask Aru to follow you?"
