Views:

Su Nuannuan let out a "huh", looked up at the sky, and secretly thought that if someone really wants to deal with us, they should launch it at dusk or at night. It's already mid-afternoon, and according to the boy's description, the gangsters probably did They didn't expect that such a blocked road would be opened. Most importantly, they probably didn't expect that I would become suspicious and send someone to check. This is our chance.

Think about it more carefully: Although there are monks in the temple, and there are dozens of guardians here in the Hou Mansion, since the other party dares to pick this place to attack, it is impossible not to take this into consideration. They probably don't see enough.

After thinking about it, Su Nuannuan came to a judgment in her heart: at this time, it is impossible to take a risk. If those giant woods and white jade stones were removed, it would be impossible for the bandits to create huge obstructions in a short time.

As soon as he thought about this, he asked the boy in a deep voice: "When I came here, I saw several villages at the foot of this mountain, right?"

"Yes, grandma is right. There are eight villages in total." The boy apparently walked around the mountain to find out the surrounding situation, and nodded immediately upon hearing this.

"I'll send a few nursing homes to accompany you down the mountain right now. You go to the village and mobilize the villagers to move away the giant trees and white jade..."

Before finishing speaking, the boy shook his head and said, "Grandma, I'm afraid this won't work. When the servant talked to those villagers, he also wanted them to contribute, but they said that this is a tribute, and they have to pay tribute to the emperor." Yes, the eunuch in the car said that whoever dares to move a finger will be guilty of exterminating the nine clans."

Su Nuannuan sneered, and said lightly: "It's better this way. They probably thought that they would be safe if they shocked the villagers, but they forgot that we would know about it in advance. Forget it. Let them see Shengdou Xiaomin's calculations and strength today. " After finishing speaking, he instructed the boy: "You and a few guards go down the mountain. I will ask the abbot to find two monks who are familiar with the villagers to lead the way. He said that there are nobles from Anpinghou's mansion on the mountain, and now he is going back to the capital. Let the common people help remove the things that block the road. It’s fine to cut them up and smash them into pieces. Whoever removes them will be theirs. In the future, the Marquis of Anping’s Mansion will explain the situation to the emperor. They will never be held accountable. There are monks to testify for you .The villagers will believe it."

The boy's eyes lit up, he quickly put up his thumbs and said with a smile: "Grandma is very skillful, who doesn't like to take advantage of it. I was afraid that the royal family would not dare to act rashly. Now that I heard this, I'm afraid they won't rush to snatch it? Let's The old matriarch is the mother of the empress, and the son is also deeply trusted by the emperor. Everyone knows this. With the testimony of the monks, this matter will definitely come true."

"Okay. Come with me." Su Nuannuan heard that this boy was really smart, so he took him to the abbot's room. When the abbot heard about this, his head suddenly became dizzy: just now he was still happy to have a good relationship with a noble family. In a blink of an eye, this good fate will turn into a catastrophe, if something happens to the old matriarch and others in Pushan Temple, the emperor and the prince will be furious. I'm afraid that Pushan Temple will be razed to the ground.

Don't dare to be negligent at the moment, and quickly sent two monks who are familiar with the people down the mountain to go down the mountain with the little nursing home. Then he turned around and asked Su Nuannuan: "Ma'am, what should we do now? It will take a long time to remove those huge trees and boulders, even if there are many people and strength. If someone really has evil intentions, I'm afraid they have already ambushed in this mountain at this moment. "

"The master is right. Therefore, the most urgent task is to count all the monks in the temple, and then gather for rescue."

Su Nuannuan quickly made a decision in her heart, but she heard the abbot ask: "Madam, are you afraid that someone with evil intentions will sneak into our temple? Do you intend to assassinate?"

Su Nuannuan shook her head slowly and said: "I feel that they would not just do it for the sake of assassination. Otherwise, they would send assassins in the back mountain to catch us by surprise, and our entire army would probably be wiped out."

The abbot is also a person who has experienced big storms. Hearing the words, he nodded secretly, thinking that he was right. If it was just for the assassination, how could it be so troublesome? Not to mention, if the thieves really have evil intentions, I have the most monks in this monastery, so I'm really afraid of being taken advantage of by them.

With this in mind, without hesitation, he immediately ordered people to ring the bell to summon all the monks in the temple. Here, Su Nuannuan also hurried back to the back mountain. Seeing that Mrs. Fang and others were still playing with the Zhike monk, she stepped forward and said with a smile: "Is the ancestor tired? Why don't you go back and rest, if you really like it, just Stay here for one night and go shopping tomorrow.”

Mrs. Fang originally wanted to say "I'm not tired". But after seeing Su Nuannuan's face, he immediately changed his mind, and said with a light smile: "That's right, since that's the case, let's go back to the room."

Everyone felt a little puzzled in their hearts, but since the old lady had spoken, she naturally didn't say anything, so a large group of people went to the guest room, halfway there, suddenly heard a long bell ringing, the old lady Fang stopped in her tracks, and said in doubt : "Why are you ringing the bell at this time? Little master, is there anything special about this?"

The two young monks who accompanied him were also taken aback, and hurriedly said: "This is the bell calling for monks to gather. Donor, please go back to the room first. I will come when I go." After finishing speaking, he left in a hurry.

The old lady Fang didn't say anything more, but her heart sank. She turned her head and glanced at Su Nuannuan. Seeing that she was still very calm, Fang Jue felt relieved.

After taking everyone back to the room, the old matriarch kicked everyone out on the grounds of being tired, leaving only Su Nuannuan to serve, and then sent Qiu Ling out to guard the door, then asked with a serious face: " Nuannuan, tell the truth to the old woman, what happened?"

Su Nuannuan said with a wry smile: "Old lady, my grandson-in-law doesn't know exactly what will happen, I just know that our way back to Beijing was cut off for no reason..." Then he told the matter again, only to hear Mrs. Fang's complexion With a drastic change, he paused on his crutches and said, "Who is it? Who has such a big enmity with my Anpinghou Mansion? What are they going to do? Are they going to bloodbath Pushan Temple?"

"When the Lord was leaving in the morning, he said that there are monks in Pushan Temple, and we have guards accompanying us. It is not easy for those people to be bloodbathed." Su Nuannuan's face flashed a stern look Color: "But no matter what, old lady, we have reached this situation now, we must fight hard, even if we lose our lives, we must not be kidnapped by them and let them use our lives to threaten Grandpa..."

Before she could finish speaking, seeing the old lady Fang's face flushed with anger and turning pale again, Su Nuannuan stopped talking, she knew that this shrewd old man had already understood what she meant: the other party had deliberately planned to keep them in Pudong. In Shan Temple, I'm afraid it's not for the lives of a group of women and children, so the motive is easy to guess.

"You're right. Xuan'er told me before that the bandits in the capital were premeditated. However, when these bandits were caught and killed, no one took them seriously. Listen to me in the morning. The old woman was still wondering when it was said that something happened to the crown prince, thinking why those people are going to assassinate the crown prince at this time? It seems a little late to make a fuss. Now it seems that Xiang Zhuang's sword dance is only aimed at Pei Gong, and his real target is us .”

"I can assassinate the prince, is it worth attacking us?" Su Nuannuan smiled wryly: "I really don't know what the people behind this scene think? Was their brain kicked by a donkey?"

"Assassinating the prince is absolutely impossible to succeed, but kidnapping us is easy. If you were not alert and noticed that something was wrong, and sent people down the mountain to investigate, the old woman would still take you on the mountain. What is it that catches us like catching a turtle in a urn?"

Mrs. Fang is worthy of being the old Fengjun who has gone through the storm. When the big event came, she didn't panic at all. After analyzing it, she asked Su Nuannuan how to deal with it, then nodded and said: "Alright, I also feel that this place is not A place to stay for a long time, warm and warm, we are going back to Beijing right now, I am afraid there are not enough guards, let's see if the master abbot can send a monk from their temple to escort us."

"The grandson's daughter-in-law thinks the same way, just wait for the abbot to finish counting the monks. It would be better if we can catch the spies, and it won't be a waste of our fear." Su Nuannuan stood up, she was not afraid to give up the house in the face of danger. The old matriarch appreciated it very much, and smiled happily at the moment: "My good boy, you really have been reborn. You were not as brave as you used to be."

Su Nuannuan said yes, my sister died once, so what else is there to be afraid of? After breathing the fresh air for so many months and eating a lot of delicacies, it was like a tearful gift from God, no matter what, I made money.

While thinking about it, he went out and ordered the servants to set up a carriage. The old lady here thought about it, and knew that this matter could not be hidden from anyone, so she called in several female relatives and told them what happened. , upon hearing it, Liu Min, Xu Ranyun, Xue Zhilan, these women who called the wind and rain in the mansion were all numb, as timid as Aunt Lin, and they cried on the spot, if Duan Xinqi and Duan Tingfang were not by their side Looking at her, I'm afraid that he would have collapsed to the ground in fright at this moment.

After Su Nuannuan gave orders to the servants and came back, she saw people chatting anxiously outside, knowing that Mrs. Fang was probably explaining the serious situation to the female relatives inside, so she didn't go in, but quietly Leaning against the courtyard door and meditating.

Zhaocai jumped out from nowhere, came to her feet and yelled twice, then jumped lightly, Su Nuannuan quickly reached out to catch her, and said with a wry smile: "You bastard, don't run around anymore, if you I can't find you in an emergency, and it is impossible for me to ignore this big family for you. At that time, unless you find the way back to the Marquis of Anping by yourself, you will only be a wild cat."

Zhaocai arched hard in her arms twice, and meowed a few more times, as if to show off his memory, to show that it would not get lost. If it was normal, Su Nuannuan would definitely tease it well, and play with the master and pet for a while, but at the moment she has no such intention. Seeing the abbot and a dozen monks approaching not far away, she hurriedly stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "Master, how are you?"
