Chapter 86 Visiting the Meng Family 1
Unlike Liu Hongcai's family who were sentenced to exile in Quanzhou for corruption, the Shen family was not confiscated and exiled for corruption. He was a cousin of the current Empress's family who had produced Wu Fu. The reason why he was on the road to exile was entirely at the instruction of the Empress and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who asked him to find a way to kill King Xiao while on the road to exile.
However, along the way, let alone killing King Xiao, he didn't even have the chance to get close to King Xiao's carriage.
The only option now was to take advantage of the chaos and approach King Xiao's carriage when the next wave of assassins attacked. Anyway, once the fight started, the guards would focus on the black-clad assassins and would not pay much attention to the exiles traveling with them.
King Xiao has been in a coma until now, so killing him is as easy as pie.
Liu Hongcai's family, from the master to the servants, all ate grilled fish and drank fish soup. The physical fatigue they had suffered in recent days seemed to be relieved a lot, and they even walked with more energy.
Shen Xinhou's family was still moving slowly, so Liu Hongcai simply led his family forward. After a while, they were at the front of the team.
After years of husband and wife relationship, they were familiar with each other's words and deeds. Shen Xinhou exchanged a look with his wife, and the two gradually fell to the back of the team.
Seeing their little actions, Shu Mingyuan's eyes flashed. He wondered what the Shen family was up to again?
He kept making small moves along the way, and he was always hiding it from people. I don’t know who sent him?
Su Wanyan finished a plate of crayfish and wiped her hands with satisfaction. As if she remembered something, she looked at Ji Xiaohan who was reading a military book, "Your Highness, is Jinzhou City just ahead?"
Ji Xiaohan paused as he flipped through the pages of the book. He remembered that the little princess's mother was the daughter of a wealthy businessman in Jinzhou. When he passed by the little princess's grandfather's house in Jinzhou...
"Jinzhou City is just ahead. I'll take you back to the Meng family tonight and pay a visit to Old Master Meng."
Su Wanyan was a little surprised and wanted to decline, "I can go by myself. If you leave, it might attract other people's attention."
Ji Xiaohan put down the book and looked at Su Wanyan with an extremely serious look in his eyes. He called out, "My wife."
Su Wanyan's face almost turned red when she was called "wife". "What...what's wrong?"
Seeing the shyness of the little princess, Ji Xiaohan's tone became even gentler. "You and I are a married couple, and your grandfather's family is also my elders, so I should pay you a visit."
Su Wanyan was touched by Ji Xiaohan's words for a second, "...Okay, I'll listen to you."
I’m afraid that if King Xiao visits the Meng family in the middle of the night, the whole Meng family will be in chaos.
I hope I don’t scare Mr. Meng.
Since I have decided to go to the Meng family in the evening, it is my first time visiting them, and I am on the road of exile in the middle of the night, so of course I have to prepare enough gifts.
When He Bo learned that his master was going to take the little princess to visit her grandfather's house in the evening, he hurriedly arranged for someone to deliver the visiting card to the Meng family first, so as not to scare the Meng family.
The Meng family was indeed frightened.
Meng Yuanliang, a wealthy businessman in Jinzhou, has two sons and one daughter. His daughter Meng Jinwei is the youngest in the family, and his two sons Meng Lianyu and Meng Xiashen are twins. When they grew up, the two brothers took over and divided their father's business.
Nowadays, Meng Yuanliang basically doesn't care about business, and he and his wife stay at home to enjoy the blessings of their children and grandchildren.
"Father, this King Xiao suddenly wants to visit the Meng family. Does he intend to win over our Meng family?" The eldest son Meng Lianyu was worried.
