Chapter 178 An ominous premonition

Xiao Shen was in a very difficult situation, because even he didn't know where Emperor Yuwen had taken Liu Pianran's body.

This is where things came to a standstill.

After a long time, he sighed.

"Madam Liu, you work for me, and I will not treat you unfairly."

Liu Mingwu was disappointed, but she did not show it. Instead, she bowed respectfully to Xiao Shan.

Something had happened to Liu Pianran, and she had completely lost hope. If Xiao Shen still wanted to keep her as his money bag, it depended on whether she agreed or not.

After coming out of the palace, Liu Mingwu summoned several maids under her command.

"The Xiao family used evil magic to kill the goddess. Their retribution will come soon. I am leaving too. You can all find your own way to make a living."

Liu Mingwu took out several purses, each of which contained a hundred taels of silver notes and some change.

These maids looked at each other and refused to step forward.

Liu Mingwu urged them so urgently that they all knelt down in unison.

"Ma'am, please don't chase us away."

"We must follow the Madam and avenge the Goddess."

"The Xiao family deserves to be struck by lightning!"

"We must avenge the goddess!"

Liu Mingwu was silent for a moment. The reason why she and Pianran saved these poor girls was because she heard from Pianran that these girls were very powerful in Pianran's previous life and were the fifth prince's right-hand men.

I had selfish motives at first, but I didn't expect them to be so open-hearted to Pianran.

"Good girls, the world is about to go into chaos, you should think more about yourself." Liu Mingwu's eyes were hot and she hurriedly pressed the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.

Jin Cui knelt forward and hugged Liu Mingwu's legs, "Madam, can you tell us, which force did the goddess favor the most?"

Liu Mingwu looked towards the northwest. She thought of her brother and her niece.

"The goddess originally intended to support the northwest." She paused, "It was the Sixth Prince Xiao Shen who threatened Pianran with my life to stay in the capital."

This was also the way out she had planned.

If Pianran fails, she will take the money she earned and turn to Yingying. For Yingying's sake, Liu Mingxuan will not do anything to them mother and daughter.

Unfortunately, man proposes, God disposes, and Pianran died in the palace.

When the maids heard Liu Mingwu say that Liu Pianran supported the Northwest during his lifetime, they looked at each other and had already made up their minds.

They kowtowed to Liu Mingwu respectfully, and then took the initiative to step forward to receive the silver.

"Madam, you go to the northwest. We will stay in the capital to complete what the goddess has not finished." Jin Cui looked solemn and spoke in a firm tone.

Liu Mingwu was stunned. She guessed what they were going to do, but she didn't say anything to stop them.

If you want to go to the Northwest, you must have some chips in your hand.

……

……

In the northwest, heavy snow fell.

Pan Yingying hadn't gotten up yet. Yu Chaosheng came back from taking Batian for a walk and went straight to her bedside to wake her up.

"What's wrong?" She glanced around in a daze. It was not even dawn yet and she didn't know why this guy could get up so early.

Yu Chaosheng sat on the edge of the bed and said, "I feel that again, and it's very, very, very bad."

He used the word "very" three times in a row, which shows that the matter was urgent.

"I suspect that Su Ge might attack Kaiyang and Taoyuan City at the same time." Pan Yingying put herself into Su Ge's shoes and thought about it seriously. If it were her, she would also jump up and attack Taoyuan City and Kaiyang at the same time.

It’s all because Liu Lin, the Breaking Bad actor, is so hateful.

"Then split the troops into two groups. I will return to Taoyuan City to defend it."

Although the people of Taoyuan City are usually training, the time is still short and they will definitely suffer losses if they face the Tartars.

Originally, the number of people in Taoyuan Village was too small. If there were too many Tatars attacking Taoyuan City, they would not be able to play any big role.

It was too late to recall the Dragon Hidden Guards now, she had to go back to defend the city.

Yu Chaosheng hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll go back with you."

Since Pan Yingying is going back, why is he still staying here?

No matter what, he has to be with Pan Yingying.

Pan Yingying silently calculated the food supplies in the Wu'an Army camp and nodded, "Okay, I'll put out another batch of food before we go back."

Marquis Wu'an has fought for so many years. During this period, the Wu'an army has been well fed, and there are heads and silver hanging in front of them. It should not be difficult to delay the Tartars.

The last time we defended Ningyuan, the battle was so tragic simply because there was no food or fodder. The soldiers were so hungry that they had no strength to even hold their weapons.

Yu Chaosheng hugged her and said, "Pack your things first. I'll go find Old Man Huo."

……

……

Upon hearing that the Tartars might send troops to attack Taoyuan City and Kaiyang at the same time, Marquis Wu'an was the first to disagree with Pan Yingying and Yu Chaosheng going back.

How many troops does Taoyuan City have? What if something goes wrong when we return?

"No! Just stay in Kaiyang!" Marquis Wu'an waved his hand and was about to make the decision.

Yu Chaosheng shrugged, "Then go and tell her, as long as she agrees."

Marquis Wu'an choked. After spending some time together, he thought he knew his niece's granddaughter quite well.

If the Tartars really attacked, Pan Yingying would not stay in Kaiyang. She would definitely return to Taoyuan City to defend it.

"I'm really pissed off!" Wu Anhou stamped his feet, "If it doesn't work, I'll go over and beat Su Ge first!"

Deputy General Qin quickly spoke out to stop them, fearing that if they weren't paying attention, the Marquis would really start fighting.

"We are not too sure. Besides, we have been here for such a long time. There must be a lot of things accumulated in the city waiting for Yingying to deal with. We really have to go back." Yu Chaosheng sighed, "Don't worry, your niece is not a weak woman."

He told Pan Yingying about his guess because he was afraid that the old man would worry, but he didn't expect the old man to react so strongly.

Wu Anhou glared, "Isn't she weak enough? When the wind is strong, I dare not let her out of the tent, for fear that she will be blown two miles away."

Yu Chaosheng could only smile at his words.

No one in the Wuan Army knows Sister Pan’s true strength yet.

He suddenly became a little curious. How would Marquis Wu'an feel when he knew that Pan Yingying was completely different from what he saw?
The delicate and soft niece turned into a female demon holding a big knife.

Hahaha, the old man’s face must be very green, right?

"Alas, I'm not here to ask for your opinion. I'm just here to tell you that we're going back to Taoyuan City today." Facing the weather-beaten face of Wu'an Hou, Yu Chaosheng rarely said something soft because he remembered his old man. "If Su Ge attacks us, you should beat him to death and beat the shit out of him. Then our Taoyuan City will be safe."

Wu Anhou rolled his eyes, "Do you need to tell me that? I wanted to beat him up a long time ago, but you guys wouldn't let me!"

Yu Chaosheng rolled his eyes even more than his own, "I've been wanting to fight for a long time. What are you going to do? People are almost starving to death, and you're still going to fight? Are you going to report your military merits to Su Ge?"

Wu Anhou was so angry that he rolled up his sleeves and was about to beat him up, "What about after that? Why don't you let me beat you after you're full?"

I’m wondering whether I should adjust the update time to the early morning in the future.
