On the way, Qin Hao had an indescribable feeling in his heart.
He didn't know if he was happy or sad.
Just now, Xiao Han didn't detect a trace of my aura from the welcoming team?
She didn't even look in Qin Hao's direction.
Was it because she was too tired?
Or … she couldn't remember the smell on my body?
Perhaps time could really make some things fade away.
Qin Hao thought it through and felt relieved. If Xiao Han's memory was blurred, Qin Hao could go all out.
At this moment, he suddenly saw a familiar figure in the welcoming team.
Song Ziyang!
Song Ziyang followed beside Murong Zijun.
When Qin Hao looked over, Song Ziyang turned around and smiled.
Then, he quickly shifted his gaze away from the Lingyun School crowd. Perhaps he was afraid that his appearance would disturb Ling Xiaoxue again.
They arrived at the City Lord's Mansion!
Xiao Han was still nowhere to be seen in the main hall.
The middle-aged general sat on the main seat and was drinking tea in big mouthfuls.
Xiao Qianliu had a look of fear and trepidation as he kept adding water to the teapot.
Murong Zijun, Qi Yuan, and Duan Zijue sat in a corner. Six pairs of eyes stared at each other's faces as if each other's faces were covered with feces. They didn't say a word, and the atmosphere was very awkward.
As Old Master Jiang and the two family heads came in, the middle-aged general threw away the teapot and straightened his armor. He waved his hand and said, "The princess is tired. You can all go back. Xiao Qianliu just told me about the plan that you guys came up with.
I think it's pretty good and you guys can carry out the plan. We will enter the mountain the day after tomorrow! "
"What about the escorts …" Old Master Jiang said anxiously.
"We don't need any escorts from the three families. I will lead my warriors and follow the princess closely within ten miles. Old Master Jiang's task is to seal off the surroundings of Lanchuan.
Remember, don't let a single ant in! "The middle-aged general's tone was very serious.
Heavy.
Once they entered the mountain, he wouldn't have the chance to follow Xiao Han.
At most, ten miles was the limit that Xiao Han gave him.
"Alright then!"
Old Master Jiang sighed. In truth, he was very worried and wanted Qin Hao, Jiang Fan, Jiang Yu, and the Xuanming Elders to follow the group and be responsible for the princess's safety.
Qin Hao's strength below the Yuan Venerate was obvious to all, and the Xuanming Elders were adept at joint attacks.
As for Jiang Yu and Jiang Fan, they were the direct descendants of the Jiang Family. They were the people that the old man trusted the most.
However, the princess made it clear that she would not allow anyone to follow her.
Turning around, Old Master Jiang and the two Patriarchs could only return in dejection.
"Old Mister Jiang, please wait …"
At this moment, an extremely pleasant and dignified female voice resounded. It was Princess Jingyue's voice transmission.
Xiao Han finally spoke, "Bring the Jiang family to the garden in the back hall. I'll wait for you here!"
"Yes, yes …"
Old Master Jiang was so moved that he almost shed tears. He quickly grabbed his grandson and granddaughter's hands and gave Qin Hao a look. Then, they walked along the corridor of the back hall and went straight to the back garden.
"What are you waiting for?
The princess asked Jiang Bida to stay, but she didn't ask you to stay. Go do what you need to do! "
The middle-aged general waved at Patriarch Wu and Patriarch Sun impatiently.
Upon seeing this, the two of them bowed and smiled apologetically before leaving the main hall.
"It seems like the old man of the Jiang Family is favored by the princess. After all, he helped Emperor Xiao in the past!"
After leaving the residence, Patriarch Sun put his hands behind his back and sneered. He did not hide the jealousy in his tone at all.
"The Jiang Family has the support of the royal family. I'm afraid that in a few years, the Wu Family and the Sun Family will no longer have a foothold in Lingtai City."
Patriarch Wu chimed in.
"Do we have a way?" Patriarch Sun spread his hands helplessly.
Upon hearing this, Wu Ziya suddenly stopped in his tracks and grabbed Sun Zhongmao's arm. "There really is a way. I just don't know if Patriarch Sun is willing to work with me.
If we succeed, the Jiang Family will be destroyed in the blink of an eye. "
Patriarch Sun's eyes widened when he heard this.
"Come, follow me back to the residence to meet an important guest. The Sun Family is about to rise!"
Wu Ziya knew that the other party had been convinced. Thus, he pulled Sun Zhongmao and headed straight to the Wu Residence.
…
City Lord Residence, back garden!
"Sister, they're here!"
An exceptionally pretty maidservant beside Xiao Han said. She looked to be about 17 or 18 years old and was wearing a clean green lotus leaf dress.
"Mm, Que 'er, you can leave!"
Xiao Han held a jade bowl in her hand and sat calmly on a stone bench in the pavilion. Her slender fingers pinched the five grains in the bowl and threw them to the school of fish in the pond below her.
"But Uncle Thearch has instructed. Que 'er cannot …"
"Jiang Bida saved my father's life, silly girl!"
Xiao Han returned a smile. Her long eyelashes and bright eyes poked the little maid's forehead with her finger.
The maidservant stuck out her tongue playfully at Xiao Han. "Que 'er will watch over there. If anyone dares to be disrespectful to Sister, I will …"
She waved her little fist and skipped to the corridor exit with an innocent and cheerful laugh. Then, she placed her hands on her waist and blocked the exit. What she meant was that if Jiang Bida and his group dared to be disrespectful to Xiao Han, she would teach them a lesson.
"Hm?"
As Que 'er blocked the exit behind them, Qin Hao and Jiang Fan turned around at the same time to take a look.
"The maidservant of the princess has quite a temper!" Jiang Fan mumbled.
"Watch your mouth, she's 150 times stronger than you!"
Qin Hao did not dare to be careless. When he saw Que 'er for the first time, his expression was grave and there was even a trace of astonishment.
He suddenly thought of something and muttered to himself, "Could she be the one who took away Xiao Han back then …"
Whoosh!
Qin Hao understood. He took a deep breath and followed closely behind Old Master Jiang.
"150 times?
Her? "
Jiang Fan smiled disdainfully.
Judging from her age, the maidservant was even younger than him.
150 times? Was she a Yuan Venerate?
Jiang Fan did not believe it!
"I am Jiang Bida. My son Jiang Tiangang, grandson Jiang Fan, and granddaughter Jiang Yu. Greetings, Princess Jingyue!"
Old Master Jiang was very excited when he arrived at the pavilion. His body trembled slightly as he bowed.
Jiang Tiangang and the others also hurriedly knelt down.
"Rise!"
Xiao Han hurriedly threw the jade bowl away and helped Jiang Bida up. She also stopped the Jiang Family from kneeling. "Old man, you are my father's savior. My father once asked me to call you 'grandfather' when I reached Lingtai City. Forgive Xiao Han for not being able to do so.
。
However, I will acknowledge Uncle Tiangang, Sister Jiang Yu, and Jiang Fan.
There were too many people just now, so it was inappropriate for Xiao Han to bow to you in public. It was also inappropriate for her to show off too much to the Jiang Family … "
"I understand. I understand everything. Xiao Yi gave birth to a good girl. Our Daliao will have a good master in the future!"
Old Master Jiang's eyes were a little wet as he wiped the corners of his eyes.
Xiao Yi's life had been exchanged for his wife's.
Old Master Jiang was reminded of his wife when he saw Xiao Yi and Xiao Han.
Jiang Tiangang was also very touched. Xiao Han was indeed not arrogant.
"Ah, is this the number one beauty in Liaoxi, Sister Jiang Yu?
Sister is so beautiful! "
Xiao Han helped Jiang Bida to sit down. She then stepped forward and held Jiang Yu's hand.
This made Jiang Yu feel flattered. She hurriedly said, "How could I dare to call myself a beauty in front of the princess? You are Daliao's goddess, its only goddess!"
"My sister's words are true. To be honest, I, Jiang Fan, have seen countless women. I lost my virginity at the age of 12 in the residence, but I have never seen a girl as beautiful as Sister Xiao Han!"
"Bastard!"
"Dammit, don't be rude!"
Jiang Fan's words scared Jiang Bida and Jiang Tiangang so much that they jumped up. They were furious and were about to scold him and apologize to Xiao Han.
Unfortunately, it was already too late!
"How dare you!"
Qiao 'er did not move, but her figure instantly appeared in front of Jiang Fan from the exit of the corridor that was fifty meters away. Next, she threw out a small, white, and smooth fist, and it seemed to hit Jiang Fan's chin softly.
Bang!
