Chapter 399: Angry and embarrassed, who are you?
The woman stood at the door and asked, "Chun Xing, why hasn't the carriage arrived yet?"
The maid pointed to a place not far away and said, "Madam, that carriage coming over is our carriage."
The woman sighed and said sadly, "Song'er will be one month old soon, but he has not met his father yet."
Chun Xing said, "The Crown Prince is very busy with his affairs in the palace. I heard from Xiao Liuzi that there has been a locust plague in Huainan recently. The Crown Prince has been up all night in the Central Province for several days and is too busy to spare time. If he is free, he will definitely come to see you."
The woman held the baby in her arms with a very skillful posture.
"My husband and I agreed in the letter that we would have a brief meeting at the palace gate tonight."
The woman pulled her hood closer to hide her face in the shadows, then turned around and said, "It's almost time for our appointment. Let's go in a carriage so that we don't keep our husbands waiting."
Chun Xing glanced up at the sky, quickly tied the collar of her cloak, and muttered something.
"Madam, please wrap your cloak around your neck. You haven't finished your confinement yet. Every time I tell you, you never take it seriously."
The carriage slowly stopped in front of the clinic, and the woman and her maid got on and sped away.
The coachman was well-trained. He didn't seem to be driving a horse-drawn carriage, but more like a lone rider, and he drove at a very fast speed.
The shadows in the dark had already seen the clues and followed the carriage.
As expected, the destination of the carriage was not the palace gate, but——
At the city gate.
The secret guards at the clinic received the signal and also moved towards the city gate.
The wind was cold at night, especially strong tonight, making it difficult to open my eyes.
The lights at the city gate were still bright, and the teams entering and leaving the city were divided into two teams and checked at the left and right gates.
There were also convoys passing through in the middle of the night, and the guards at the city gates carefully checked every document.
The carriage stopped at the three-meter-high city gate. Chun Xing was prepared and showed the token in her hand.
No one knew who owned the black and gold token, but when the gatekeeper saw it, he immediately opened the city gate respectfully.
Almost at the same time, several dark shadows fell silently on the city gate tower, as well as on the grass and trees beside the wall.
Before the carriage drove out of the city, it was stopped by the leader of the secret guards, who was dressed in black and had a black iron mask covering his face.
The surrounding secret guards began to approach the carriage, and finally, the carriage was surrounded without any blind spots.
When the guards at the city gate saw the secret guards at work, they immediately locked the gate leading out of the city.
It would be impossible for the people in the carriage to escape from so many masters.
Chun Xing got off the carriage first and looked at the people around her. She was afraid, but she was prepared.
She puffed out her chest and said in a commanding tone, "Who are you? Why are you stopping the car of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery? Do you know that the person sitting inside is the wife of Lord Lu?"
The leading secret guard walked to the side of the carriage and said respectfully, "Miss Ji, please don't embarrass us and return to the clinic as soon as possible."
At the entrance of the clinic, "she" deliberately dressed up as Mrs. Lu and held a child.
But "she" never showed her face. She said she was going to the palace gate, but in the blink of an eye she drove a carriage out of the city.
It is obvious who the woman in the carriage is.
Chun Xing felt uneasy, but she had to continue according to the rehearsal process.
"You guys should retreat immediately, or we will go back to complain to our Lord. Our Lord is of noble status now, you can't afford to offend him!"
The secret guard was over thirty years old and could tell at a glance that the little maid was lying.
A woman's angry voice could also be heard from inside.
"Don't worry about them, go out of the city, I'll see who dares to stop me!"
The leader of the secret guards blocked the carriage with his body and slapped the horse on the head with his rough hands. The horse no longer listened to the driver's orders, moved its ears, and instead of moving forward, it took several steps back.
"It's late at night, please go back and rest, Miss Ji."
Through the thick curtains, the female voice inside was obviously angry and embarrassed.
She said angrily: "Don't I even have the right to go out for a walk?"
The leader of the secret guards replied: "Please go back to the city, Miss Ji. You can go anywhere in the city, but you are not allowed to leave the city."
She sneered and said, "What if I insist on leaving? Are you going to fight me?"
The leader of the secret guards said, "I have orders to follow. I have no choice but to offend Miss Ji. Please don't embarrass me, Miss Ji."
The leader of the secret guards received news from Emperor Wu Su. He told Ji Qingwu that it didn't matter what she did in the city, even if it meant killing people or setting fires, as long as she was kept safe.
But one thing is that she is not allowed to leave Lin'an.
The curtains inside moved, and there was a sound of someone stomping their feet.
She asked: "How do you know that I am Ji Qingwu?"
A gleam flashed in the eyes of the secret guard leader. He turned and looked at the young man who was hiding at the edge of the city wall and trying his best to blend into the shadows of the trees.
"Miss Ji, you have a huge flaw. I wonder if you have discovered it?"
She said nonchalantly, "What flaw? I'm not Ji Qingwu, you don't have to lie to me."
The leader of the secret guards smiled. He had dealt with Miss Ji several times.
He knew that this man was clever, intelligent and courageous.
The previous few times, I underestimated this weak woman and was almost fooled by Ji Qingwu's flawless disguise skills.
After that, he had given the order that these secret guards had to be extremely alert and guard Ji Qingwu, and no mistakes were allowed to occur.
Until now, he still couldn't see through this superb disguise, but he could see other things.
It is actually not difficult to see through Ji Qingwu's identity. Even if her disguise is perfect, there will be flaws.
This flaw comes from the four seas.
Because wherever Ji Qingwu appears, Sihai will hide around him, inseparable.
The leader of the secret guards was not familiar enough with Miss Ji, but he was very familiar with the martial arts of Sihai, who was also a secret guard.
He personally taught Sihai a lot of Kung Fu.
The leader of the secret guards said, "Si Hai is responsible for protecting your safety. Do you want me to find him out before you admit your identity?"
As expected, the figure clinging to the wall froze.
The leader of the secret guards flew onto the carriage, drove the coachman aside, and drove the horse himself.
"Miss Ji, please sit still. I will take you back right away."
At this time, the curtain of the carriage was lifted up. There was no candle inside, so the woman's face could not be seen clearly under the hood.
"Sir, my last name is Ji, but I'm already married, so it would be more appropriate for you to call me Madam Lu."
The leader of the secret guards moved his lips and was about to say something when he saw "she" raise her head and take off her hood.
"You and I don't know each other, why are you stopping me?"
A look of shock flashed in the secret guard's eyes. This person was not Ji Qingwu!
