That’s all Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu said.
The footsteps slowly stopped in front of them.
The two looked at each other and closed their eyes at the same time.
The guard moved quickly, his sword slashing down.
The two people were dealt with.
When Mrs. Xu arrived,
Mrs. Xu was already clinging to Mr. Xu's arm in a daze.
She called again and again, but there was no response.
"Crane sound, where's the crane sound?"
She called out again and again.
The next second, his head and body were separated.
The Xu family was wiped out in one day.
The blood overflowed from the crack in the door.
But those who knew what was going on did not dare to speak.
You also have to hide in the house and do some calculations.
The news about Hongcheng has already spread, and anyone with a smart enough brain can tell.
Everyone knows that they should stay out of the spotlight at this time.
Don't bump into the edge of the knife.
Looking at the Xu family, they are always prosperous.
Even the Lord of Lanzhou had to be considerate.
But now, they have turned against each other without any hesitation.
The Xu family disappeared quietly.
Lu Anan returned to Mancheng Mansion.
The Lord of Lanzhou was waiting there.
Lu Anan saw him and paused slightly.
"Master Fujun."
The Lord of Lanzhou came over quickly.
"Your Highness."
Lu Anan looked at him: "Master, this is..."
The Lord of Lanzhou seemed to be waiting for her specially.
"Your Highness, when you go to Yuezhou, Manhe will be watching you covetously."
"Therefore, I have prepared some food for Your Highness."
The Lord of Lanzhou is indeed reliable.
Lu Anan glanced at Chu Jinshen.
"In that case, then...Ah Shen and I will be disrespectful in declining it."
The Lord of Lanzhou is one of their own. In other words, Lanzhou belongs to them.
so. . .
Lu Anan could also accept the things prepared by the Lord of Lanzhou.
Things should have been prepared before.
Look at the things prepared by the Lord of Lanzhou.
It doesn't look like it was just done now.
It seems more like...
Prepared early in the morning.
The Lord of Lanzhou looked at Lu Anan and lowered his head.
"Don't worry, Your Highness. I have no intention of asking questions. It's just..."
"It was already prepared when the Empress Dowager sent the news."
Lu Anan chuckled: "Lord Lanzhou, don't worry about it, since he is one of us."
"For these things, I would like to thank Lord Lanzhou."
The Lord of Lanzhou was just about to exchange a few pleasantries.
Lu Anan waved her hand: "In this case, as winter is approaching, the matter of Hongcheng involves many people."
"Tell the county governors below to prepare things for this winter..."
“It’s a little different from previous years.”
There was something behind Lu Anan's words, and the Lord of Lanzhou naturally heard it.
"Don't worry, Your Highness. It's winter now, and I'm sure the people don't like to go out much."
"As for the food in the prefecture, Your Highness, please rest assured that the food from recent years has been left in the prefecture city."
Lu Anan listened to what Lord Lanzhou said and couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
This seems like a rainy day preparation.
It's really amazing.
No wonder Chu Jinshen mentioned before that he was the only one in that situation.
It can also send food and fodder to the provincial capital.
Avoided the old emperor's eyes and ears.
Lu Anan nodded
"In the coming winter, if anything happens, I will send people to Yuezhou."
"Remember, be careful in the capital."
The Lord of Lanzhou immediately understood what she meant.
Nodded.
"Don't worry, Your Highness. I will definitely pay more attention."
Lu Anan nodded in satisfaction. The only pity was that the Empress Dowager was not brought over.
"What a pity! If the Empress Dowager had come, we would have truly been reunited."
Chu Jinshen seemed to be thinking: "We should meet soon."
"What does Ah Shen mean?"
"Nature has changed the subject."
Lu An'an's eyes lit up: "A Shen means to take her over when the Empress Dowager goes to pray?"
Lu Anan knew very well that now was not a good time to take action.
After all, natural disasters are coming, whether it is Chu Shengan or Concubine Bai, they will have to wait until this winter is over.
Lu Anan should be able to free up her hands to deal with them.
"That's a good thing. If we stay in the capital, a lot of trouble will arise."
Chu Jinshen took Lu Anan and walked out.
The Lord of Lanzhou did not follow.
He was very sensible. After hearing Lu Anan's arrangements, he immediately asked Butler Zhou to do it.
"Tell the county governors below to try not to touch the grain stored over the past two years."
Butler Zhou nodded.
"By the way, from now on, for all the merchants who come here, no matter how much they have, if you can accept it, we will take it all."
Lanzhou is in the north, and Jiangnan is a place rich in salt. However, Lanzhou is like Yuezhou, so it can only purchase salt through traveling merchants.
In addition, there are some cotton, sugar and the like.
These are things that require a lot of storage.
"Yes, sir."
Lord Lanzhou waved his hand and Steward Zhou walked out.
He raised his head and looked at the sky: "The weather is going to change."
Indeed, since the incident in Hongcheng.
The Lord of Lanzhou knew that now was the time to make a choice.
The matter here is over, whether Chu Shengan believes it or not.
General Weiyuan and Lord Zhu both died here in accidents.
Even if he wanted to deal with Lanzhou, he had to get rid of Chu Jinshen and the others first.
The Lord of Lanzhou walked into the palace.
Just then, the wife of the Lord came out.
"master."
The Lord of Lanzhou paused and asked, "Why did Madam come out?"
The wife of the Lord's wife is surnamed Tian, and is a lady from Jiangnan.
"Has everyone left?"
Mrs. Tian asked softly.
She was in charge of all affairs in the mansion and handled them all in an orderly manner.
The yard on Lu Anan's side was also arranged by her.
Just because it was inconvenient, Mrs. Tian never showed up.
Now that Lu Anan had left, she emerged from the backyard.
"Have you written to my father-in-law and his family?"
Although it is a tradition in Heng State, women who marry out of the country will not suffer any misfortune.
But Mrs. Tian’s family is in Jiangnan, so we still have to be careful.
Mrs. Tian nodded and walked to the side of Lord Lanzhou.
"Master, the people in this mansion..."
"Send away the talkative one."
Mrs. Tian nodded, naturally understanding what Lord Lanzhou meant.
Sending them away here does not mean letting them go home.
Instead, deal with those who talk too much one by one.
"Mrs. Li in the mansion, isn't it..."
The Lord of Lanzhou paused: "What happened to her?"
"It seems that there has been a misunderstanding of His Highness's identity."
The Lord of Lanzhou frowned and said, "Since you're asking something you shouldn't be asking, then send him away."
Mrs. Tian lowered her eyes, and a glint of light flashed in her eyes.
Since you are not obedient, then find someone who is obedient.
"Oh, right, my brother said a while ago that my younger brother went home and stayed at the academy early."
The Lord of Lanzhou seemed to be lost in thought.
"The He family never suddenly closes the hospital for other reasons."
Mrs. Tian nodded and said, "That's right, that's why my brother said these words when he wrote to me."
Yuezhou, Luocheng.
Xu Pingsheng looked at the letter sent by Wu Quan, and a cold light flashed across the corner of his mouth.
"You're really courting death."
