I played as an assistant in ancient times

When rescuing people that day, Lu Guan, whom she had just met, blocked the rocks for her. It seems that her wish was not fulfilled, and he came to Da Zhou like them.

I wonder if he spoke out of turn in excitement after seeing his fellow townsman, or if he had amnesia?

And did my uncle exchange information with him at this moment? What kind of incident was he involved in that made him be targeted by the Guardian Department?

Thinking of this, Shen Xiaoye opened his eyes and stood up. Lin Erniu, who was sitting next to him, woke up and stood up, "Is my cousin back?"

"No." She saw someone coming in and out of the west wing outside the hall, so she asked, "Brother Erniu, when did someone enter the west wing?"

Or has there always been someone here? But since the Guards Department has borrowed it, there shouldn't have been anyone from the government office here before.

From this position in the hall, you can just see the constables rushing the prisoners in shackles into the hall. Captain Zhao and the inspector general met them, probably with the intention of intimidating them. It is hard to say that this scene was not performed for them.

Of course, Shen Xiaoye hoped that she was just overthinking, as imagination was the scariest thing.

"You are injured, so you should sit down and rest. I'll go and take a look." Seeing that she was about to move, Lin Erniu immediately asked her to stop.

But she shook her head: "If I'm not going, you shouldn't go either. We haven't received the order to leave here yet." As she said that, she slowly walked to the door and didn't move.

"Okay, I didn't notice when anyone came in or out over there." Lin Erniu also stopped inside the door.

The two of them looked around in silence. For a long time, no one from the west wing came out. As it was getting hotter near noon, they couldn't help feeling annoyed.

They didn't feel relieved until they saw Shen Changsui being led into the courtyard.

"Uncle." Shen Xiaoye was so excited that she stopped calling him fourth uncle. Just as she was about to step out of the door, she received a glare from Shen Changsui.

He hurried into the hall: "Don't worry, maybe we can leave soon."

"Uncle, what about them?" Lin Erniu was asking about Lu Guan and Gongwei Si.

Shen Changsui hesitated for a moment and whispered, "On the way back just now, another person met us and took us away, so he asked the servant to take me back."

Before Lin Erniu had figured it out, Shen Xiaoye's eyes lit up and said, "That's not bad."

But when she turned to face the room, she looked at her uncle worriedly and anxiously, and the latter understood immediately and shook his head.

Shen Xiaoye blinked. Her uncle and Lu Guan did not successfully exchange information. She wanted to ask something else, but after calling him "uncle", she decided not to ask.

This place is too unsafe.

The three of them waited for more than half an hour and saw more and more clerks and runners bringing prisoners in and out of the side rooms, but no one came into the main hall to deliver a message.

Even if Shen Changsui went out to find a clerk and offered him money, the clerk would not accept it.

Shen Xiaoye gradually became restless and stood up and walked out, "Go find someone else to ask." Shen Changsui couldn't catch her.

But when she saw the guard Sitiqi coming in from outside the courtyard gate, she decisively withdrew her foot and retreated into the gate.

When I heard the Tiqi rider in the courtyard say, "You three can go now, and don't talk too much outside."

When the three of them left the police station, they could no longer see him.

But this is not important. What they need is to leave quickly. They don’t care even if they find that the tofu in the basket is broken into pieces and there are only a few cherries left.

In fact, if you take it too seriously, you lose.

"Fortunately, the knapsack was always hanging on my uncle's shoulders." After Lin Erniu walked out of the county government gate, he didn't want to look back at the eight-shaped wall at all.

"Aren't we going to Weiyuan Escort Agency?" He asked belatedly when he saw the other two heading straight for the east gate of the city.

Shen Changsui said: "I'll send you and Shen Xiaoye home first."

"..." Lin Erniu never knew why his uncle sometimes called Xiaoye with both his full name. You know, a girl's maiden name is rarely revealed to the public.

After passing through an archway on the main street in front of the city, we soon saw the city gate was open.

Shen Changsui walked without stopping. After leading the two out of the city, he said, "Xiaoye, go to Cousin Lin's house and wait. I'll go to Weiyuan Escort Agency."

"No, let Brother Erniu go first, I will go with you." Shen Xiaoye disagreed. She knew that her uncle wanted to find someone to inquire about Lu Guan's matter, so she ran to the city gate to send Lin Shen off as soon as she came out.

Shen Changsui pulled away her hand that was holding his arm, stopped and said seriously, "Shen Xiaoye, calm down."

"I'm very calm." In Shen Xiaoye's mind, her uncle from past and present lives is naturally the closest to her. Moreover, after her parents left, besides her three uncles, it was her uncle who took care of her the most. She didn't want any other accidents to happen.

Shen Changsui has the soul of an adult, and he thinks about more issues. Jiuli Village is more than 20 miles away from the county seat in a straight line.

The old man and eldest brother in the family should have returned home before their own provincial examinations, but they did not return in time until the summer harvest. They finally finished their farm work and came to inquire for news, and they could not return empty-handed and make their family worry.

Xiao Ye had just graduated in his previous life and was still a bit immature. He comforted him, "Look, the streets have returned to normal. I'm just getting a message..."

"Uncle," Shen Xiaoye interrupted him as people were clearly in a hurry on the street, "Let's go together."

She even covered her mouth and whispered, "What if someone follows us? Will it cause trouble for the escort agency? This has been shown in movies and TV series.

I can go up with you and help you, distracting the other party."

Shen Changsui paused, and he took back his previous thoughts. This child had grown up without him noticing. "What you said makes sense, so I should go even more, but you two must go, so as not to be trapped again."

Shen Xiaoye wanted to argue, so he hinted, "You forgot that I have this finger." As he spoke, he pinched his thumb and index finger a few times. Anyway, the little girl didn't know that she had lost contact with the golden finger that suddenly appeared.

He patted his little niece on the head and said, "Be obedient and leave the city first."

When Shen Xiaoye saw his uncle's action, he knew that his objection was ineffective, but it was still unknown whether the late-coming hacker could actually enter.

After she left the city, she walked with her head down all the way. Lin Erniu, who was standing next to her, scratched the back of his head and tried to speak several times but didn't know what to say.

But after walking about two miles, Shen Xiaoye stopped and said, "We'll wait for uncle on the roadside."

"Then let's go to the tea stall. There are more people and trees around." Lin Erniu was also worried about his uncle.

Shen Xiaoye shook her head: "Go get a cup of tea." She wanted to listen to the pedestrians' discussion about the sudden opening and closing of the city gates.

At this time, Shen Changsui had already arrived at the Weiyuan Escort Agency, and there was indeed a letter brought back by the old man.

He couldn't wait to open it and saw in the letter that Xiaoye's original parents had been found, but they were just corpses.

Shen Changsui sighed deeply. This news was too unfriendly to his mother who was in poor health.

In fact, when he and Xiao Ye came here, it was said that many disaster victims had gathered outside Qiu County. At first, the county magistrate accepted a group of women and children into the city to get food and medicine, but later on, more and more people gathered, and large-scale fights and food grabbing incidents occurred.

The county magistrate immediately closed the city and prohibited the disaster victims from other places from entering the city, and also recruited troops to patrol the city.

Coincidentally, my sister and brother-in-law went back to Wujiazhuang, dozens of miles away, to attend a funeral the day before the city was closed, and he only saw them twice briefly on the hospital bed.

Later, that night, bandits led the victims to attack the county town at night to steal food. My eldest brother ran back covered in blood to help everyone hide. After the bandits were driven away, reinforcements arrived, but I never saw my sister and brother-in-law again.

During this time, he heard some news that seemed to be true, but until he was forced to continue heading north, he still couldn't find anyone.

Now... Alas, the old man is still worried that Xiao Ye will not be able to bear the news, but he doesn't know that his granddaughter is no longer his original granddaughter.
