When the officials heard Ran Xiangyu's sarcastic words, they all stopped.
They first glanced at Chen Yong in shock, then turned around to see which ignorant woman was provoking them.
The women of the Shen family paused and turned to look at Ran Xiangyu, their eyes full of disdain.
Fortunately, the seventh brother has not married Ran Xiangyu yet, otherwise the house would be bustling before the chaos outside.
Ran Xiangyu had a big fight with Lao Qi yesterday and called off the wedding, and now they meet again today.
It's really a narrow road for enemies to meet. I met Ran Xiangyu on the road to exile.
It really is haunting.
Chen Yong sneered, raised his drooping head slightly, looked at Sun Ren who was walking back, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes.
Sun Ren met Chen Yong's gaze and paused.
He immediately frowned and looked at Ran Xiangyu.
"Who is making such a commotion here, delaying my journey? Can you afford it?"
What's going on? Can't they just spend these seven days in peace?
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding!"
Nanny Zhang covered Ran Xiangyu's mouth tightly, "Please forgive me, sir. Our eldest lady has some grudges with the Shen family. I didn't mean to cause trouble."
"That's right, I was just angry and lost control. Please don't blame me, sir!"
Aunt Zhang apologized to Sun Ren repeatedly, turned her head and leaned close to Ran Xiangyu's ear, gritting her teeth and admonishing her,
"Miss, we have to hurry on our way. It's better to have less trouble than more. If these officials give us trouble, we won't be able to do anything about it."
"Think about Master Ran, what will happen if he catches you!?"
In the past, the eldest daughter relied on the fact that she was the daughter-in-law of the Duke of Huguo's mansion, and everyone in the capital respected her.
They were all considering the face of the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion. Now that the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion has collapsed, who will give them face?
This double delay allowed the vampires from the Ran Mansion to catch up with them, and they would be in big trouble.
After hearing what Nanny Zhang said, Ran Xiangyu immediately stopped struggling.
That’s right, this place is still too close to the capital. Those people from the Ran Mansion may chase her at any time, so she has to hurry and run.
After seeing Ran Xiangyu calm down, Nanny Zhang let out a long sigh and took down her hand that was covering her mouth.
"Ha!" Sun Ren sneered and raised the sharp knife in his hand.
"From what I heard from your young lady, is she dissatisfied with our slow pace?"
"I dare not, I dare not, I dare not!" Nanny Zhang laughed dryly and waved her hands repeatedly.
She turned to look at Ran Xiangyu, and stretched out her hand to rub her index finger and thumb.
Ran Xiangyu took a deep breath and reluctantly took out a silver note from her bosom and put it in Nanny Zhang's hand.
Nanny Zhang looked at the silver note worth one hundred taels and frowned slightly.
With so many officials, I don’t know if giving them just 100 taels of silver will work.
Seeing Sun Ren approaching, Aunt Zhang quickly jumped off the carriage and ran towards him.
"Sir, I'm so sorry. My young lady didn't wake up this morning and was a little confused. She said something unpleasant. Please don't take it to heart."
"This is a little gift from our young lady. Please have a cup of tea."
As she spoke, Nanny Zhang gave Sun Ren a flattering smile and stuffed the banknote into his hand.
Sun Ren lowered his eyes and glanced at the banknotes in his hand, then chuckled softly.
"If you haven't woken up yet, go get some sleep. Don't come out and talk nonsense, making people laugh at you."
"Yes, yes, the officer is right." Nanny Zhang nodded repeatedly in agreement.
Ran Xiangyu watched Sun Ren take the banknote, then changed her tone and rolled her eyes silently in her heart.
In the past, these small officials would bow and scrape when they saw her, but now they are acting so arrogantly.
Ran Xiangyu was furious when she thought about how the incompetent Duke of Huguo's Mansion had made her so embarrassed.
She glared at the Shen family angrily, snorted coldly, and got into the carriage.
Sun Ren glanced at the carriage calmly, then looked at Aunt Zhang and sneered.
"Okay, I have to hurry on my way. I don't want to bother with you anymore."
If this place wasn't so close to the capital, he wouldn't have let this woman go so easily.
So many loyal and brave men of the Duke of Protectorate sacrificed their lives in vain. Once they fall, anyone will dare to step on them.
What the hell!
After watching Sun Ren leave, Aunt Zhang finally felt relieved.
Fortunately, the escort officers they encountered this time were not so difficult to deal with, otherwise they would have been in big trouble...
.........
"The Shen family of the Duke of Huguo's Mansion!?"
Tian Liu opened his eyes wide, swallowed the food in his mouth in a hurry, and looked at the stunned Tian San with wide eyes.
"Third brother, did you hear that?"
"Is there a woman outside talking about the Shen family of the Protectorate Mansion?"
Tian Liu looked incredulous, worried that he might have hallucinated because he was looking for the Shen family, which was why he heard this voice.
"You heard that too!?"
Tian San looked at Tian Liu in shock and said, "Quick, catch up and take a look."
Damn it, I was looking for that person all night and thought I had lost him, but he suddenly showed up again.
How is this not a surprise?
Tian San quickly put down his chopsticks, grabbed the sword beside him and walked out.
Seeing this, Tian Liu stuffed most of the bun in his hand into his mouth.
As he stood up, he grabbed the few uneaten meat buns on the table and stuffed them directly into his arms.
I haven’t eaten yet, why are you in such a hurry to catch up?
Tianliu curled his lips, grabbed the sword and chased after Tiansan.
Tian San rushed out of the post station and ran to the official road, where he saw the Shen family members wearing prison uniforms among the escorting officials.
He gritted his teeth and tightened his grip on the sword.
"Damn it, where on earth are these officers hiding this person?!"
They searched hard all night, but found out that the Shen family was still in the post station and had not been kidnapped at all.
After all this time, they are the most tired.
Tianliu also ran to Tiansan at this time.
"Hiss, no one is missing. Where were these people last night?"
Tianliu was also dumbfounded. He was sure that there were no such women in the cell.
If it was a male prisoner, it might be possible that he made a mistake, but with so many female prisoners, he definitely would not make a mistake.
The point is, there aren't that many prisoners in that cell combined.
"You ask me, who should I ask? Didn't you check the cell?"
Tian San said something to Tian Liu in a bad mood.
When he turned around, he saw Tianliu's bulging chest and his eyes almost popped out.
It's so unseemly for a secret guard of the emperor to eat a bun and put it in his arms.
"......" Tian Liu was stunned by Tian San's criticism and immediately felt unhappy.
"I checked, there are only four people in the cell, all of them are men, there are no members of the Shen family at all."
"Who knows how these officials hid people?"
Tian San frowned as he looked at the caravan following behind the escort team.
"Alright, hurry up and catch up. I think there's something wrong with this caravan."
"What's wrong?!" Tian Liu quickly raised his foot and followed Tian San.
They were just a group of ordinary merchants, and he didn't see anything wrong with them.
