"What?! How can there be such rumors? Do you know where these rumors come from?"

Yao Shu's face turned pale. Colluding with the Huns was not a trivial matter, let alone being placed anywhere. What's more, the people here had just suffered the pain of the Huns' invasion not long ago. They felt the same and hated it. People who colluded with the Huns were accused of such crimes, even if it was not true, the people would be suspicious.

"I don't know, boss lady, please, please let me go. This is really all I know. You can ask others for the rest. I told you everything I know!"

The guy is so scared that he would rather not have the job and want to run away!

"I understand. Just go and work as usual. I guarantee that no one will come to trouble you."

Yao Shu was devastated. Not to mention that this guy wanted to leave, she quickly went to ask Shen Bei what happened!

There’s no telling what this kid can do based on his personality!

"Thank you boss lady for your kindness, I will never forget it in my life!"

The guy was so grateful that he couldn't even imagine that he could stay and work here after saying such words. This boss lady is so nice! Sure enough, as the previous legend said, he was friendly and had done many good deeds.

At the same time, his inner view of the Shen family has also changed a little. With such an amiable and friendly mother, his son must not have done anything like colluding with the Huns, even if he was not a very good person. And judging from what the boss lady just said He seemed not to know about this, maybe it was a misunderstanding?

Yao Shu hurried home and knocked on Fang's door. As soon as she opened the door, she asked urgently, "Do you know where Shen Bei went? How did I hear that he was colluding with the Huns? Is this true or false? Tell me quickly. I!"

Fang was asked so many questions all at once that her head felt dizzy, "Mom, wait a minute, ask them one by one, my head is almost spinning."

Fang reorganized the questions and answered them one by one, "I don't know where he went. He never told me. I have never heard of colluding with the Huns. I don't know whether it is true or not. If you want to contact me, It’s better for him to contact his guards.”

She was very smart and knew that this matter was as urgent as a mother giving birth in ten months. She took a pen and paper and wrote down the address of the guard. Yao Shu followed the clues and found it. Within a moment, she saw Shen Bei. of guard.

"Do you know where Shen Bei is? Who has he been in contact with recently?"

"Madam, I have a day off today. I don't know much about the third young master. I usually do whatever he tells me to do, but...but..."

The guard's eyes looked left and right. Yao Shu knew there was something going on at the first glance and immediately asked: "Say quickly, it's okay. I'm not old yet. I can bear it. Just tell the truth. My own son must know who he is." What are you doing now!"

The guard immediately stopped hiding. After looking around to make sure there was no one around, he whispered: "The third young master has indeed had contact with the Huns recently. I don't know the specifics. Because of this, rumors are spreading in Zhangzhou. As for other things, Yes, I really don’t know.”

After receiving such news, Yao Shu couldn't sit still, her heart was pounding, and she immediately went home to find Shen Nanshan. The couple closed the door to discuss countermeasures.

"Do you know what your son did outside?!"

Shen Nanshan didn't know why: "We have many sons, which son are you asking about?"

In fact, he didn't know very well the current situation of each of his sons, so asking this question was in vain.

Yao Shu directly pointed out the rumors she had heard: "Do you know that the people here are saying that Shen Bei and the Xiongnu are doing some shameful things?!"

"What?!" These words made Shen Nanshan unable to sit still, "Collaboration with the enemy and treason is a major crime for the nine tribes. If you are involved in it, the whole family will suffer! His child! How could his child do this?! !! Don’t you want the lives of the two of us, as well as his brothers and sisters!?”

Yao Shu asked him to speak in a lower voice, "This matter is still unclear, but as the parties involved, we cannot be kept in the dark. We have to go find our son. What do you think?"

"Of course I have to go! I have to go! Let's go now. If this kind of thing is left alone for a day, it will bring more bad consequences. I will prepare the carriage right away. Wife, you pack the things we use these days. , I’ll be back as soon as I go!”

The couple split up, and when Yao Shu finished packing her things, the carriage was already waiting in the yard. As soon as they sat down, they urged the coachman to set off quickly.

"Wait a minute!"

There was a sound coming from the yard, and the couple opened the curtain and saw that it was Ling Hui.

He led a team of men and horses and blocked the carriage, "I know why you are going. I have arranged a manpower guard for you. You can take one with you so that you can feel at ease on the way. After all, the Huns are ferocious. You have arrived in the territory of the Huns. You have to be able to protect yourself.”

He waved his hand, and a group of people immediately gathered around the carriage.

Although Yao Shu was grateful to him, she had already asked him for a lot of help before. The Shen family owed him a lot of money and would not be able to pay it back for a while, let alone asking him for help now, so she would naturally refuse.

"We have received a lot of care from you in the past, and we will remember your kindness to our family. These people are elite soldiers at first sight. They should stay with you to play their best role. We will be careful during this trip. We appreciate your kindness, so you won’t have to worry about it anymore.”

"No! I told you that this trip is dangerous, and you must take them with you. If you don't take them with you to the Huns' territory, I will not allow you to leave this compound!"

Ling Hui was not a tough-minded person before, but this abnormal attitude made Yao Shu realize that something was wrong.

Any topic involving the Huns will become extremely heavy. It is indeed dangerous for the couple to go this time, but according to nearby rumors, if they do not come back from this trip, it will just confirm the charge of the third young master of the Shen family colluding with the Huns. Therefore, Ling Hui sent a team of people, which not only played a protective role, but also had a greater role of guardianship.

Thinking of this, Yao Shu blushed.

When he refused just now, Ling Hui must have already concluded in his heart that they were colluding with the Huns, right?

"We accept your kindness. Thank you very much. We will definitely come back safely. You will be waiting for us."

Ling Hui's expression softened a lot, "Of course I believe you can come back. This is just a last resort. I hope you understand."
