Princess Chun'an's horse was soon ready. The maid went in to reply. After a while, Princess Chun'an came out in a green cloth dress. She walked out of the crowd with a cold face, not looking at anyone. She patted the horse's neck, then pulled the reins, and rode the horse away from the gate like the wind.
The maids finally breathed a sigh of relief, but seeing her riding so fast they couldn't help but become nervous and hurriedly asked the guards to catch up.
There are only so many masters in the mansion. If something really happens again, I don’t know what bad things people outside will say.
Zhengyang Street was bustling with activity. Su Yaocai came out of the silk shop and shook his head at the shopkeeper who followed him out: "Uncle Shen, you don't have to be so reserved. From now on, we will settle the accounts once a quarter. Since my godfather and godmother trust you, I will trust you too."
Mr. and Mrs. Shen returned to their hometown, and naturally entrusted the shop in Beijing to Su Yao.
In addition to managing the He family's assets, Su Yao has also recently devoted his attention to checking the Shen family's business.
Shopkeeper Shen laughed and said, "Yes, yes, since the county lady said so, I will send the accounts to you for verification when the time comes, so you don't have to run back and forth like this."
Su Yao has a very good temper. After getting along with her for a few times, Manager Shen has gradually let down her reservedness.
Su Yao nodded and was about to say something when bursts of exclamations came from not far ahead.
"What's going on?" Shopkeeper Shen was a little stunned. This was the most prosperous street in the capital, and the public security had always been first-rate. The Five Cities Army often patrolled here, and ordinary people didn't dare to deliberately cause trouble here. But now, listening to the situation, it seemed like something big had happened.
Before I could ask clearly, the commotion became more and more intense. The crowd scattered in panic. Some people rushed into the nearby shops without knowing where to go. The small stalls on both sides of the road were knocked over and their things were scattered all over the ground. A woman was holding a child's hand, but she couldn't hold the child's hand anymore when she was pushed by the surging crowd. She couldn't help crying in panic.
Shopkeeper Shen was even more stunned, and subconsciously asked Su Yao to hurry into the store: "What happened? Is there a fire outside? Is there a fire?"
Otherwise, why would it cause such a big fuss
Unless there was a fire, why would these people be so scared? There were more people during the Lantern Festival, but there was no such scene of ghosts howling and wolves howling.
Su Yao stood still. She was staring at the crowd, so she noticed a two or three-year-old child being separated from his mother by the crowd.
Such a young child!
Now these people are running around in a panic for some unknown reason. The child can't walk steadily to begin with, and if he falls down, with so many people stepping on him, the child will never be able to stand up again.
"Hurry up and save them! That child has been separated!" Su Yao's hair stood on end. Seeing these people were like crazy, he felt his scalp tingling: "Uncle Jian!"
He Jian was very agile. When he heard her speak, he flew out without even saying a word.
The crowd was crowded, and He Jian relied on his great skills to step on people's shoulders in the air. He was nearly dragged down by others several times, but fortunately, he managed to lift up the child who was about to be stepped on without any danger.
Shopkeeper Shen's heart almost jumped out of his chest. He asked in horror and anger, "What happened? Why are these people running like this? Are they crazy?"
There have been stampedes in the capital in previous years. Once a stampede occurs, many people are killed or injured. This is what Shopkeeper Shen fears the most. But during this non-holiday season, what on earth are these people doing? They are so frightened that they are running around like crazy.
However, Shopkeeper Shen was not shocked for too long. He Jian was drowned in the crowd holding the child. No matter how capable he was, he had to take care of the child. He could not fly around like before. Thinking of this, the crowd suddenly screamed again. Some people stepped on other people's shoes, skirts, and robes in panic. Some people fell down because they were stepped on. Then the crowd stepped on these people in even more panic. People kept crying and shouting for mercy in fear, but the commotion did not subside. As people gradually dispersed, some people fell down, and a shadow ran towards this side quickly.
Shopkeeper Shen was stunned and completely confused. He cursed subconsciously: "What the hell is this? Are the horses of the Taichang Temple crazy?"
Such a tall horse is obviously a military horse, of noble breed, not something that ordinary people can have. Did the horse in the Taichang Temple go crazy? That's why it bumped into the people and ran rampant
Shopkeeper Shen was terrified. Seeing more and more people running to the side, he was so scared that he was about to leave. He hurriedly asked Su Yao, "County Lady, hurry up! Go into the shop and hide..."
That crazy horse looks very crazy, so it’s better to hide from it quickly.
Su Yao frowned - there were ordinary people everywhere here. There were already many people lying on the ground in front, some were still moving and some were already motionless. If the horse continued to run, who knew how many people it would trample.
"This won't work." She frowned, and when the horse came closer and she saw the person sitting high on it, she raised her brows again.
Princess Chun'an.
The person on horseback is Princess Chun'an.
She looked straight at Princess Chun'an and saw that Princess Chun'an was also looking at her.
When their eyes met, Princess Chun'an looked superior, with a hideous, twisted and complacent smile on her face.
Su Yao immediately pushed away Yan Cao who was trying to pull him into the store, and ordered without even turning his head: "Go into the store, and don't come out!"
"Girl!" Yan Cao was so frightened that her heart almost stopped. She held onto the door frame and rushed out: "Girl, what are you doing?!"
So many people were begging to enter the store for shelter, why was Su Yao still rushing out!
Shopkeeper Shen was already terrified. He watched Su Yao run down the stairs and head toward the street. He was also stunned: "County Lady, what are you going to do?! It's so chaotic outside..."
A few people from the Five Cities Army passed by just now, but it was too dangerous here, so they didn't dare to rush up to stop the horses directly. They could only scold them with sticks and dodge in a panic. Su Yao didn't run away at this time, she was heading over there.
Are you crazy, girl
Su Yao helped up a little girl who had fallen on the street, and walked towards the middle of the street with a calm expression and without looking back.
Can’t enter the store.
This was not a mad horse, nor was it that the person could not control the horse. Instead, someone deliberately let the horse gallop wildly in the downtown area, deliberately making such a big noise, and it was targeting her.
If she entered the store, the madman Chun An would rush into the store without hesitation.
There were also brides-to-be in the store, as well as mothers who were looking to make new clothes for their children.
