As the sky became brighter, Xu Mingyue personally sent Xu Jian and Lin Yan to the city gate.

Wei Fulu opened the door of the carriage, and Xu Mingyue stood in front of the window and said with a smile: "Mom and dad, go home early and come back early. I'll wait for you to go home for dinner together."

Lin Yan moved Xu Jian, who was leaning toward the window, back into the carriage, held Xu Mingyue's face in his hands, and stroked it a few times with his fingertips.

"I'll go back to Qingyuan later and take a few more guards with me before going out. Don't be too troublesome. Safety is the most important thing."

Xu Mingyue nodded and waved towards Lin Yan: "Mom, hurry up, don't wait and delay the good time."

The carriage was driven forward. Lin Yan and Xu Jian got out of a car window and waved goodbye to Xu Mingyue.

"Yaoyao, daddy will take you to pick lotus pods when he comes back."

Xu Mingyue waved the handkerchief to say goodbye to Xu Jian and Lin Yan. When she turned back to get on the carriage, she saw the sachet with the word "Fu" embroidered on her waist. She immediately jumped off the carriage and headed out of the city gate.

Two long spears overlapped in front of Xu Mingyue, blocking Xu Mingyue's steps: "The princess wants to leave the city?"

The corners of Xu Mingyue's mouth froze. Looking at the people who were leaving and entering the city normally, she knew that she was indeed being targeted.

Wei Fulu remembered the appearance of these two people in his mind and angrily scolded: "I've blinded your dog eyes. This is the virtuous princess. Do I have to explain to you if I want to go out of the city?"

The facts are before our eyes, and Xie Chongan's hands have reached out to the generals guarding the city gates.

Xie Chongan once kidnapped Xu Mingyue and destroyed the Zhenguo Palace. Now he can let everyone in the Zhenguo Palace leave the capital, but he will not allow Xu Mingyue to leave the capital.

Because Xie Chongan knew that as long as Xu Mingyue was in the capital, if he stabbed Xu Mingyue with a knife, the people in the Zhenguo Palace would have to come back obediently.

Looking at Wei Fulu, the personal guards who had already drawn their swords to confront the city guards took a step back and lowered their heads to wait for Xu Mingyue's instructions.

Xu Mingyue didn't want to embarrass such a person who obeyed orders: "My parents forgot to bring the sachets containing the birthdays and birth dates of our four brothers and sisters. Can you give them to me?"

If Xu Mingyue insists on leaving the city gate without making a fuss, they will help carry it to Lin Yan, let alone a bag of gold, even if it is a cart of gold.

Lin Yan held the sachet in her hand and looked at Xu Jian with heavy eyes.

Xu Jian also wanted to tell Xu Mingyue through the car window that he might not be able to accompany Xu Mingyue on a boating trip to pick lotus flowers recently, but was blocked by Lin Yan. Taking Lin Yan into his arms, Xu Jian's voice became sharp: "Hurry up the carriage."

Xu Mingyue looked at the suddenly accelerating carriage and knew that Xu Jian and Lin Yan had understood the turmoil under the calm of the capital.

The sun was climbing higher and higher, but there was still an hour and a half before the time agreed with Xie Chongan, so Xu Mingyue didn't want to wait.

Wei Fulu drove the carriage back to Qingyuan, and Xu Mingyue sat in front of the window and became lost in thought.

If Xie Chongan could directly kill Xu Minghuai in Luoshui in his previous life, then he must have another force in the army. Judging from the current situation, Xu Mingyue felt that that person would not be Zheng Xingye.

So who is this person who can take Xu Minghuai's life from Xu Jiajun's hands?

His eyes fell on the file on the desk. Xu Mingyue had just opened it and turned over half a cup of tea when Tiantian knocked on the door: "Master, the time has come."

Xu Mingyue nodded and handed the file to Wei Fulu: "Put it back first. I'll look at it before looking for you."

As soon as Qingyuan's carriage stopped opposite Liu's Clothing Village, Xiao Banzi came up to greet him personally and greeted Xu Mingyue Gongsheng: "I have seen the princess. Princess, please follow me."

The moment Tiantian and Xiaobanzi looked at each other, they felt uncomfortable.

The man in front of her looked like a poisonous snake that grew in the mountains and fed on human flesh. Even with a smile on her face, Tiantian felt cold.

Even so, Tiantian still forced herself to correct Xiao Banzi's title: "My father-in-law, my wife is married. You should call my wife Princess."

Xiaobanzi smiled bitterly, glanced at Wei Tiantian from the corner of his eye, and jumped to the topic: "His Royal Highness is currently watching Shopkeeper Liu embroidering the fans. Please sit in the private room and wait a moment."

Xu Mingyue didn't answer, and sat in the private room on the second floor facing the window, looking at the people downstairs, with their bare feet on the hot floor under the increasingly fierce sun.

A group of officials' sons rode into the long street, knocking several peddlers hawking along the street to the ground one after another, and a bunch of small gadgets rolled on the ground.

The salesman looked up at the departing figures of the group of people in fine clothes. He didn't even have the guts to curse, let alone ask for justice.

He silently lowered his head and picked up the gadgets that could still be sold, and continued to sell with the basket on his back.

The smile on his face was stained with fatigue and grievance, but the shouting did not dare to stop for a moment.

The fox's eyes are full of compassion, and the people in this capital have reached the point where they dare not ask for justice in order to survive.

Then the people in this world will definitely not have enough to eat throughout the year.

They are all looking forward to the next king being a wise king like Yao and Shun, but if the imperial power changes but cannot get a wise king, it will be too cruel to the people of this land.

The quiet private room was interrupted by the sound of Xie Chongan pushing the door in. Tiantian took out the herbal tea and tea cup she had brought with her, poured tea for Xu Mingyue first, then handed the fan to Xu Mingyue's hand, turned and left the private room.

Xie Chongan sat down opposite Xu Mingyue and was quite satisfied with Xu Mingyue's sincerity in bringing only Tiantian and the driver to the appointment today. "Mingyue, long time no see."

"I met the prince on the day he returned from Sanchao, and I didn't want to see the prince." Xu Mingyue raised her head and looked at Xie Chongan: "What does the prince want from Mingyue? Just tell him."

"The dream about the bright moon must have occurred when I was six years old."

Xu Mingyue has been like a headless fly these days, running amok in the capital without getting anywhere.

Xu Mingyue, who has hit a wall, should know who can protect her in this capital.

Xie Chongan came to see Xu Mingyue today. The primary purpose was to put the dream together, and the secondary purpose was to hope that Xu Mingyue could return from the lost path after seeing the current situation clearly.

If a woman wants to survive in this world, she must ultimately rely on a man.

Wouldn't it be necessary for a woman with a solid foundation like Liu Fei to rely on Xie Chong'an to gain a firm foothold in the capital?
