Someone brought hot water from outside the house, and Yun Xiang waited for the beads to wash up. Bea cleaned up the house again, then ran out to the carriage to bring up her bedding.

As soon as she stepped out of the room, she saw a cold servant dressed in black standing by the door like a god. She turned her head to look at her when she heard the sound.

Bea's heart skipped a beat as she met the cold, silent, oppressive gaze.

Today, she was frightened by that gaze full of killing intent. She faintly felt that this person was so terrifying.

She was afraid, so she didn't dare to go past him.

The black clothed man glanced at her and asked, "What are you planning to do?"

His voice was rough, just like his men.

Shocked, Bi Xi forced herself to stammer, "I …" I'm going down to get something. "

The man in black paused for a moment before turning his body to the side.

The passage was narrow, and if she wanted to go, she would have to pass him.

The closer she got, the more she seemed to be able to feel the ice-cold aura coming from that person. She was anxious and slowly stepped forward like a squirming rabbit.

When she finally got downstairs, she felt relieved and quickly ran to the side of the carriage to take down the brocade quilt prepared by the Yang family. As soon as she turned around, she was startled.

Bea's heart skipped a beat, and she almost dropped the quilt in her arms. The man reached for the bundle in his hand and asked, "Is that all?"

She was stunned for a long time before she realized that he wanted to help her carry the items. Her face instantly flushed red as she stuttered, "No …" "No more."

Without another word, the man turned and walked away. The huge package seemed light in his hands, and she patted her chest and hurried after him.

Gu Jinzhu was lying on the bed, and she felt her entire body aching. In the end, she was Lady Jiao who had never been out before. Just this day's worth of time made her unable to bear it.

Yun Xiang was massaging her arms for her. When she saw that Bee had come in with a blanket in her arms, she couldn't help but ask curiously, "What's wrong?"

She pouted and said, "It's nothing."

But in the end, he couldn't help but mutter, "The person San Ye brought was so fierce. He kept guarding the door, not letting anyone in or out."

Jinzhu's heart moved, she was truly frightened today. When that black clad attendant stepped on Chen Yunze, his attack was fierce and fierce, and most importantly, she could clearly see the killing intent in his eyes.

If not for Gu Yiqing's words, she believed that this attendant would have taken Chen Yunze's life at that moment!

This kind of understanding made her tremble in fear. No matter how weak Chen Yunze was, he was still a fifth-grade Grandmaster, and he was even the young Top Scorer of Jiangnan.

Moreover, this person's eyes were cold and merciless, like an unsheathed sharp sword. The killing intent on his body was so dense that it seemed almost real, more like a person who had gone through countless bloody battles on the battlefield, how could he look like an ordinary servant?

With such a subordinate, how could Gu Yiqing be simple?

Moreover, the grandeur he exuded was not in the slightest related to the person in her memories who did not have anything to do with the Gu family.

Her thoughts raced, and she was relieved to think that he had ordered his attendants to stand guard at the door, presumably for their safety.

She was young and could not keep her mouth shut, and she was afraid that she might cause some trouble for the young lady.

Bea was also a smart girl, and today she was scared and didn't dare to talk anymore.

The waiter brought them food, so there was no need to be fussy when they were away. The three of them hastily took a mouthful and rested.

Jinzhu slept in the inner room, while Bee and Rutan slept in the outer room.

It was probably her first time out, so she couldn't fall asleep no matter what. The moment she closed her eyes, she remembered Chen Yunze's miserable state during the day, and her heart felt heavy.

She gently sat up, and the shadows of the trees outside the window began to flutter. From the outside, the sound of the two girls' breathing could be heard. It was obvious that they were fast asleep.

She slipped out of bed, went to the window, and gently pushed it open.

A refreshing and moist air assaulted his face, causing him to feel refreshed in an instant.

Because it was a cloudy day, there was no moonlight. There was only the rustling of the wind as it brushed against the trees, and the sounds of their conversation could be heard.

She was slightly startled.

Perhaps it was because it was too quiet at night, but the words were heard so clearly. A cold male voice asked, "Master, tomorrow we're going south. There's a flood happening in Binzhou, and it's chaotic. Is it too dangerous to bring Eldest Miss over?"

Then, a voice as cold as shattered jade came out. It was the voice of her new Third Uncle, Gu Yingqing.

"So what? We don't have much time, so we can't possibly send her back home! "

"But …" "It's too chaotic over there. If something happens to Eldest Young Miss, the Duke of Guo …"

"Hmph."

Gu Yiqing sneered, "Do you think Big Bro isn't clear about the situation over there? Since you know what I'm doing here and that the mob is causing trouble, you should just casually let me pass by to pick up this daughter of yours. As for whether I can go back or not, who do you think would care? "

His voice was light and indifferent, but it was like an icicle that pierced Gu Jinzhu's heart. In that instant, she felt as if she had been struck by ice from head to toe.

Binzhou... Easier said than done.

"Yes."

Bring it in?

Gu Jinzhu gripped the window sill, not even noticing the pain in her palm.

Binzhou lies at the junction of the two great rivers, the Zhe River and the Dam River, thousands of miles to the south of Linan.

Although the land is fertile and the Toyota is a thousand miles away, the land is low and prone to water.

A month ago, there had been a torrential downpour for more than ten days, triggering a flood, and the local prefect was greedy for the treasury. He had used furs and leaves to fill a sandstone bag to build a dam.

Unexpectedly, the counties and prefectures surrounding Binzhou were in a state of chaos. The slogans were extremely resounding, but for some reason, not a single grain of rice had been sent to the disaster area, and after the flood disaster, a large number of people had been starved to death.

As for the surrounding counties, they were also afraid of implicating the victims within their own districts, so they refused to open the city gates. They refused to place any of the victims into the city.

The people were not willing to be starved to death, so a great disturbance broke out, and they risked their lives to get in.

The mob forcibly stormed the city. After entering, they would smash the government and burn down the officials to rob others. It was simply a place where bandits ran rampant.
