Chapter 128 Luo Jinan's guess about Guan Minghui's plan

At some point, Luo Chuyan, who was wearing armor, stood behind Luo Jinan. He also followed his gaze towards the sky but did not say a word.

"I'm afraid I'll have to arrive in Shengdu early."

When the voice came, Luo Chuyan shuddered. Although he had been prepared for this, he still couldn't help but worry when he heard it. Those people in Shengdu were all black-hearted, and he was always afraid that Luo Jinan would suffer a loss.

"But what happened?" This was the first time that Luo Chuyan asked about the secret of Luo Jinan, because he knew that Luo Jinan was no longer his son after he left.

"I suspect Yangcheng has been attacked."

"What?" Luo Chuyan, who had been calm, screamed in surprise, looked around and lowered his voice, "Did you get any reliable information?"

Luo Jin walked leisurely to a more open place and looked at the tent with a frown.

"That's my guess. I've already sent someone to Yangcheng to investigate."

Luo Jinan's words did not make Luo Chuyan feel relieved. On the contrary, he knew his youngest son's ability, and his guess was at least 70% true.

Because of this, he was even more worried. In the past, when Yangcheng was in danger, the Zhenbei Army could only go to support it after the imperial court ordered it. Now they haven't received any news at all. What's more, Mobei still attacks from time to time. How can the Zhenbei Army leave at will? If a big war really breaks out, it will be no joke.

Luo Chuyan looked at his little son opposite him and knew that he must have a plan in mind.

"What do you need me to do?"

Luo Jinan smiled and said, "Guard the northern border and protect my mother."

Luo Chuyan smiled happily, "You still have some conscience, and you still care about your mother."

“…”

The father and son both looked towards the south at the same time, but their minds were different. Luo Chuyan was worried about Luo Jinan at this time. This kid had entrusted his mother with a serious look, which showed that he had made up his mind to go to Shengdu.

Now that the Sheng Dynasty is unstable, the Prince of Chang, who was given a mission by the previous emperor, has to take the responsibility, but as a father, he is reluctant to do so. When his father was alive, he was so good at planning and strategizing, but he still had to compromise with the family of the vicious woman. Although Luo Jin'an is gifted and has means, he is still just a 15-year-old child after all.

In Luo Chuyan's eyes, Luo Jinan was still just a 15-year-old boy, but at this moment he was thinking about how to uproot the big tree of the Wen family in advance.

According to the news from Shengdu, the emperor is not as obedient to the Wen family as before since the death of the empress dowager. But after so many years, how can he change easily? Moreover, the Wen family has a daughter who whispers in the emperor's ear every day. It is said that this Zhenpin has climbed to the position of Zhenfei. The daughters of Duke Wei are really more resourceful than each other.

A cold light flashed in Luo Jinan's eyes, but unfortunately he would not let anyone in Duke Wei's Mansion go!

Yangcheng Border Guard Office

Guan Minghui has been married to the Guardian's Mansion for five days, but she has not even seen her husband in these five days. Now, there are some rumors in the mansion that Zheng Yan is very dissatisfied with her as a bride.

But Guan Minghui is not an ordinary woman. She is not affected by the rumors. She knows very well that even if Zheng Yan really has no intention of marrying her, he will not be so rude, because if the Guan family finds out about such an act, they will definitely go to the Zheng family to argue, and the relationship between the two families will come to an end.

"Miss, the servants in this mansion are too bullying, why don't you take action?"

The one who spoke was Zhilan, the maidservant beside Guan Minghui. She was well aware of her young lady's methods. Now there were only two masters, the aunt and the young lady, in the mansion. As long as the young lady took action, she would be able to suppress everyone in the mansion.

Guan Minghui thought for a while, but did not answer Zhilan's question, instead she waved. Zhilan leaned forward and although she was confused after hearing her mistress' instructions, she still went to the outer courtyard without delay.

In the evening, Zhilan hurried into the yard and carefully closed the doors and windows.

"Miss, this is a letter from Master Zhao, and," Zhilan's voice trembled, "Master Zhao told us to pack up and return to Northern Xinjiang overnight."

Guan Minghui paused as she was about to open the letter. It seemed that the situation was much worse than she thought. She quickened her movements and took out the letter to read it. The letter was not clear. Zhao Er could only find out that there might be a big battle at the border and Yangcheng was in danger.

Guan Minghui's expression began to become solemn. Currently, Yangcheng only has 10,000 border defense troops. If the Yanyang Kingdom only intended to attack Yangcheng, they would not delay the attack. I'm afraid their plan this time is not small.

Zhilan, who was standing by, trembled. Although she didn't know what had happened exactly, since Mr. Zhao asked the young lady to return to Northern Frontier, it meant that something big must have happened in Mingyang City.

Guan Minghui saw Zhilan's fear and patted her hands, "Don't worry, I'm here. You will go out of the house to find Zhao Er later. You can go back to Northern Frontier overnight. Zhao Er will know how to handle the rest."

Zhilan grabbed Guan Minghui's hand and cried, "Miss, you're not leaving? It's too dangerous here. Let's go back to Northern Xinjiang."

"I can't leave," Guan Minghui said softly, "I am the wife of the Guan family, how can I leave at will? Listen to me, go find Zhao Er and give this to him."

Zhilan stamped her feet, not daring to delay the young lady's business, and ran out with the letter.

Guan Minghui looked at the red silk that had not been removed from the room. She did not leave, not because she had become a wife of the Guan family, but because Yangcheng was probably no longer peaceful. She had been exposed to it since she was a child, and she knew that when two armies were facing each other, how could they not send out spies, especially when the other side had some ulterior motive.

If she left the Border Envoy's Mansion today, she believed that the enemy would realize that their plan was wrong and would quickly capture Yangcheng. At this moment, she could only pray silently that she was overthinking. Because even if Zhao Er really brought the news back, Yangcheng might not be able to wait for reinforcements to arrive.

Guan Minghui was thinking about it when she heard the sound of footsteps outside. Her heart couldn't help but rise, and her hand unconsciously pressed on the dagger in her sleeve.

Looking at the head that had come in, she breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously, but then said angrily, "Didn't I tell you to leave with Zhao Er? Why did you come back?"

Zhilan moved to Guan Minghui's side with red eyes and burst into tears, "Miss, I'm scared... I'm scared that I'll never see you again..."

Guan Minghui didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so she took out her handkerchief to wipe away Zhilan's tears.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Stop crying. It's the middle of the night and your crying is too annoying."

Zhilan stopped sobbing. This time, the young lady only brought her, a big maid. If she left, what would the young lady do alone? There were still a group of evil slaves in the envoy's mansion. She must accompany the young lady. Anyway, her life is worthless. If it weren't for the young lady, she wouldn't know where she is now.

Guan Minghui looked at the little girl beside her and knew that she couldn't send her away. It was good, because if the big maid beside her disappeared without a reason, it would also arouse suspicion. But she made a decision. If they could escape this time, she would recognize the little girl as her sister and ensure that she would have no worries for the rest of her life.
