They looked at each other, as if the head hanging in the square was not Wang You's, but their own.
Each of them felt the coldness and tightness in their necks, and couldn't help but shrink their heads. Most of the crowd that was bustling just now dispersed because of these few words.
They were afraid that if they left and ate some, they would be accused of treason. By then, it would become a trick, and the whole family's heads would probably not be saved.
Jiang Huan followed the crowd and left the square and walked towards the city gate.
The city gate was still closed tightly, and the continuous heavy rain soaked the guards responsible for digging the passage.
They wiped the sweat beads one by one, not daring to slack off at all. They were afraid that if they missed the task of moving the accumulated water, then the accumulated water that had finally disappeared would accumulate again.
Jiang Huan walked in casually and walked towards the captain of the guard who was responsible for guarding the city wall.
Originally, Qiu Xingjian was responsible for the city wall, but today Qiu Xingjian was busy dealing with the Miao border issue, so he vacated the city wall and handed it over to his confidants to guard it.
"Stop! The city wall is so important that no one can get close to it!" The guard called Jiang Huan to stop.
The next moment, Jiang Huan slowly opened a corner of the curtain.
When the guard saw Jiang Huan's face, he became obviously panicked.
He hurriedly ran down the steps, glanced at Jiang Huan with slight embarrassment, and said softly, "Fifth Princess, it's really not that I won't let you go up. It's just that Lord Qiu ordered that no third person be allowed to go up except him and the prince.
City wall. If it goes against his wishes, I'm afraid I won't be able to be employed as such."
Jiang Huan turned a deaf ear and walked up the steps.
The guard saw Jiang Huan's posture and quickly followed him, blocking him and saying, "Fifth princess, you really can't go up. I can't explain to Master Qiu. What should I do if the princess calls me and the whole family?"
However, Jiang Huan still did not stop until the guard had no choice but to draw the sword from his waist and place it in front of Jiang Huan, blocking Jiang Huan's steps.
She glanced at the guard's sword, and then nodded slightly.
The guard looked a little panicked with that cold and piercing gaze, but he still held the sword tightly and did not dare to relax at all.
He was afraid that if he didn't pay attention, Jiang Huan would go up the city wall.
By that time, I will suffer a big loss.
"You are afraid of Master Chen, but you are not afraid of me, the fifth princess of Jiang?" Jiang Huan asked coldly.
The guard had never thought that Jiang Huan would ask him such a question. He was stunned. When he was distracted, Jiang Huan had already turned sideways to avoid the sword and walked towards the steps nimbly.
By the time the guards caught up with her, she had already reached the top of the steps.
This height was enough for Jiang Huan to see clearly what was happening under the city wall.
Serious waterlogging, and...
Jiang Huan squinted his eyes and looked at the location pointed by these pipes very seriously.
As he had guessed, the drainage pipelines in the south of the Yangtze River were not built randomly. While paying attention to their practicality, these pipelines could form a strange pattern.
This pattern looked like an entrenched dragon, but in Jiang Huan's eyes, it looked more like a map.
A map to find the secret you want.
"Fifth Princess! You have made things difficult for us, and we can no longer be polite to you!" The guard's serious voice pulled Jiang Huan back from his thoughts.
