Chapter 024 Did you sneak out?
The three of them were sleeping soundly and could not be woken up even if they were called, while everyone else had already gotten up.
There was no other way, so Yan Xiuxiu and Lu Xiaolian helped them pack up their things first, and prepared to wake them up when the whip arrived at the door.
Fortunately, An Jingge slept with the bag of gold under her head like a miser, otherwise they would have discovered it.
"Why hasn't Mom woken up yet? Could she be sick?" Xingbao put his hand under Feng Aoqing's nose to test.
Yuebao hurried over to pat Xingbao's hand: "Only dead people would do that! I'll beat you!"
With a slap, his brother's hand hit his mother directly on the face. It would be strange if she didn't wake up after being hit so hard.
"Yuebao! Look at you! You hit your mother! I'll hit you too!"
"I'll hit you!"
"I'm still hitting you!"
"I'll fight! I'll fight!"
"I fight, fight, fight!"
The two began to fight in front of the bed.
Thank you for listening to me.
Feng Aoqing woke up.
The two children have been taken away by Jingtao and Yan Xiuxiu.
"That's amazing! You even learned how to fight." Feng Aoqing took their hands and asked them to shake hands and make peace.
"Use this energy to deal with other naughty kids in the future. Don't hit your own people, understand? Let's talk reason first."
The two of them nodded with pursed lips.
Feng Aoqing saw two bamboo baskets covered with cloth at the door.
She waved to the postman who was helping to load things in the yard to express her gratitude. Yesterday she had mentioned her request for baskets to be made, and the postman really found someone to make two suitable empty bamboo baskets for her.
"Sister-in-law, what is that?" Mo Nanzhou was a well-known curious baby, and he would take a look at everything he saw.
"Food." Feng Aoqing answered, and at this time she had taken things from the space and filled the two bamboo baskets.
Mo Nanzhou wanted to open it and take a look, but she slapped his hand and said, "Don't let others get jealous. You and Mingyuan will each carry a basket. I don't think your brother needs to be supported. Let him walk slowly."
Mo Nanzhou picked it up and tried it, and it was not heavy.
"Go away!" The bailiffs Chen Kang and Wang Liangcai hurried to the room where Feng Aoqing lived and rushed in.
"My two sirs, what's the matter?" Feng Aoqing felt nervous when she saw them heading straight to the window.
"Someone said that you sneaked out last night! Tell the truth whether you did or not!" Chen Kang shouted.
"I went out! I went to see my husband and had some relief." Feng Aoqing started practicing Tai Chi.
"Yesterday after midnight! Come, beat her up! Beat her until she confesses! Tell the truth, where did she go? What did she do?"
Chen Kang was the second-in-command among the escorts, so he could order the escorts except Jiang Yi.
"I didn't go anywhere. Whoever said I went out, let him produce evidence to confront me." Feng Aoqing was no longer in a hurry.
She looked at the onlookers, searching for the informant.
"I saw you leave through the window." A male prisoner stood up and said.
"The window, huh? Look carefully, it's me."
"Yes, it's you!"
"Where did you see it?"
"I'm in the house!"
Anyone who was smart enough started laughing.
Because you said what you saw outside, you will be beaten, because the bailiff ordered that you cannot go out after dark unless you have to go out, and if you have to go out, you must report to the guards.
What you said you saw in the room is nonsense. It is impossible for these male prisoners to see the back window of Feng Aoqing's room from where they live.
The only rooms that could see her back window were the three rooms where the Mo family lived.
Wang Liangcai came out of the room and shook his head at Chen Kang: "The window hasn't been moved."
Chen Kang frowned and whipped the male prisoner who had filed the complaint. The prisoner cried out, "I've seen it wrong! Your Excellency, I've seen it wrong!"
Chen Kang would never let him go and kept whipping him until Jiang Yi came to stop him.
The farce ended and the crowd dispersed. Mo Beiyuan stood in the corridor with a cold face. He did not walk towards Feng Aoqing, but grabbed Mo Shuyuan.
Mo Shuyuan twisted her body and said, "Brother, let me go. You're hurting me."
"Don't treat me like a fool. This time, if she gets whipped, I will return it to you tenfold." Mo Beiyuan said coldly.
"Brother! I am your biological sister! How can you be so cruel to me!" Mo Shuyuan was shocked and asked hatefully, covering her chest.
"You are allowed to be cruel to others, but others cannot be cruel to you. How is this true? Since you are capable of doing these things, you should know the consequences." Mo Beiyuan did not feel sorry at all.
"Mom!" Mo Shuyuan struggled desperately when she saw her mother, but Mo Beiyuan loosened his grip and let her fall into Chen Yilan's arms.
"Mom, keep an eye on her and don't do anything out of line again, otherwise you won't be able to save her." Mo Beiyuan warned before Chen Yilan could say anything.
There were only two people left in the corridor.
"I'm sorry, I didn't teach my sister well." Mo Beiyuan apologized.
"I did go out, she was right."
"I know." Mo Beiyuan chuckled.
"I knew it! It's Si Chen, right?! I was wondering why it was such a coincidence!"
Mo Beiyuan was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Don't do these things in the future. She won't follow me. If she wants me dead, then the only person who follows her will be a killer."
Feng Aoqing thought, I won't go even if she's here! I'm not looking for her, I just want her things.
"You can go by yourself! Second brother and Mingyuan have things to carry." Feng Aoqing changed the subject.
Mo Beiyuan nodded.
He didn't know what medicine Feng Aoqing used, but it was very effective. After resting for a day and a night, his other minor injuries had begun to heal. Only the injury on his left shoulder was more serious, but it didn't hurt as much as before. He just couldn't lift his hand yet.
The group set off.
As soon as I walked out, I saw a tall and thin man in brocade clothes outside the inn looking at the traveling team.
"Aoqing! Aoqing!" The man finally saw Feng Aoqing and waved his hands vigorously.
He ran forward while shouting.
It happened to be Wei Ze who was on that side, but he still tried to stop him.
"Who are you? This is an exile team. If you offend us, you will be sent to the government office to suffer." Wei Ze said fiercely, but he still had to pretend.
"Cousin?" Feng Aoqing searched her memory and then remembered that this was the original owner's cousin Li Yixuan.
"Sir, I'd like to chat with my cousin for a few minutes. Please..." He shook out a silver ingot from his sleeve and put it in Wei Ze's hand.
"So it's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Zhao County. Please forgive my poor eyesight." Wei Ze didn't dare to accept the silver and knelt down to pay his respects.
Li Yixuan is a member of the royal family. He is the son of Feng Aoqing's cousin, who is the wife of Prince Zhao.
Wei Ze forced the team to stop.
They were all officials. If they didn't curry favor with the royal family when they saw them, they would be fools. So all the escorts came to pay their respects.
According to the law, people in the team must also kneel down.
The only ones standing now were Feng Aoqing and Mo Beiyuan, who had walked behind her at some point.
"Cousin, why did you leave Beijing?" Feng Aoqing asked.
