Chapter 253: Qiao Niang meets an old acquaintance in Manchester
For convenience, Yun Qiao only brought Wuying with her when she went to Nancheng, and no one else.
The two maids she brought with her were in the villa, which made the people of the Meng family think that the princess was staying in the villa obediently at the moment.
Speculating that Yun Qiao's purpose in coming to Nancheng was not pure, and that she might be targeting the Meng family, and that she had come to Nancheng specifically to find evidence of an affair between the Meng family and Man Guo, Meng Liang sent people to guard outside the villa, watching Yun Qiao's every move.
Now Yun Qiao has changed her identity and has formed a half-way brother and sister duo with Wuying, changing her identity.
It is relatively safer.
The two drove to Manchester City.
Wuying was driving the carriage and Yunqiao was sitting inside. This carriage was just an extremely ordinary one. It looked inconspicuous at all and was also designed to be low-key and not attract attention.
We drove to Manchester very quickly.
The two of them paid money to rent two identities from ordinary people. When they entered the Manchester city gate, they checked it. In addition, Yun Qiao asked Wuying to give silver and money to the general guarding the gate, so they passed through quickly.
The development of Manchester City is very similar to that of South City.
Yun Qiao used to find it strange to see people from all over the country in South City, but now there are many merchants from South City in Manchester City, or residents of Da Zhou who live near Manchester City, and many of them come into the city to do business.
People living in border areas would rather go to Manchester to buy things than to go to the South City, so they would buy more in Manchester, and some things are only sold in Manchester.
It’s strange that the weather in South City and Manchester City is so different just across a valley.
After entering Manchester City, Yunqiao and Wuying had to change their clothes because the clothes they were wearing were too thick.
The weather in Manchester is very hot.
This place is a bit like the modern border between Yunnan and Thailand, so similar that Yun Qiao thought she was on vacation in the ancient tourist area.
There are a lot of fruits here, and there are fruit sellers everywhere. There are also a lot of juices, cut watermelons, and many other fruits that have never been seen in the capital of the Great Zhou.
"Your Highness, do you really think you are here for fun?"
Wuying whispered a reminder to Yunqiao who was enjoying eating watermelon.
"Now that we are here, we should make the best of it."
Yun Qiao handed another piece of watermelon to Wuying, "Eat the watermelon first. When we were walking around here just now, I noticed that the patrolling soldiers seemed to be observing us. I thought we should find a place to change our makeup."
"I noticed it too. I wanted to remind Your Highness that we have to go back today and not stay in Manchester any longer."
Wuying is really worried about Yunqiao.
If she were in danger, the Marquis would definitely kill him.
"good."
Yun Qiao didn't refuse either.
But they didn't expect that when they went to the clothing store to buy clothes to change, they were targeted by several men in black.
“Your Highness…”
Wuying shouted worriedly outside.
Yun Qiao looked at the man in black who suddenly appeared in front of her.
But the way this man looked at her didn't seem hostile.
"Xiao Qiao..."
The man called her in a low voice.
Yun Qiao paused, "Who are you..."
The only people who could call her Xiaoqiao were her childhood playmates. No, not really playmates, but when she was in Shaanxi, every time she was beaten and scolded by her aunt, she would quietly run away.
Later, she found a few times that a little beggar always followed her. She thought he was a bad person and even threw stones at him.
Later I found out that the little beggar was protecting her.
Because every time she went out, there was a kidnapper following her, trying to abduct her.
From then on, Yun Qiao would always secretly take some steamed buns or cakes from the kitchen for the little beggar to eat.
The little beggar became one of her few friends, but Yun Qiao was an adult at that time, and her feelings towards the little beggar were out of pity, or gratitude for his help.
"Look who I am..."
The man pulled off his mask, revealing an exceptionally handsome face in front of her.
"I've noticed you a long time ago. You came to South City."
Yun Qiao stared at the man in front of her, "Little beggar, Xiao Lan."
The smile in Xiao Lan's eyes became even brighter, "You still remember me."
It’s not that Yun Qiao remembered, but that she read what the man was thinking.
【Xiao Qiao still remembers me.】
"Why are you in Manchuria..."
After Yun Qiao asked this question, she felt that she was stupid and the question she asked was also stupid.
Xiao Lan is Manchu.
Xiao seems to be the national surname of the Manchus.
"Since you've come to Manchester, you've entered my territory. I'll take you to my place. How about staying for a few days?"
His voice was low and contained a hint of coaxing.
Before Yun Qiao agreed, she heard the sound of fighting.
"Xiao Lan, that man is my brother. Your people should not touch him..."
She and Wuying didn't bring many followers with them, and she had no martial arts skills. Wuying would definitely not be able to win against so many killers alone.
After hearing Yun Qiao's words, Xiao Lan snapped his fingers, and the people who were still fighting outside said, "Retreat."
Everyone dispersed.
Wuying was worried about Yunqiao's safety and was about to rush in.
But Xiao Lan opened the door directly and Yun Qiao walked out behind him.
Wuying was stunned when he saw Xiao Lan.
The young prince of Manchuria, Xiao Lan.
