Mu Qianmei looked at Mo Huan and Mo Chou brothers and sisters, and said softly:

"If you really want to help me, stay in the beggar gang for the time being, the beggar gang has something very important that you need to do, we still have a long way to go in the future, I don't want you to protect me closely, but have a greater responsibility to you."

Mo Huan sat indifferently and did not speak again, which was regarded as acquiescing to Mu Qianmei's words.

Mo Chou pouted and muttered:

"We are just reluctant to leave you, you have been away for more than three years, and finally come back, I thought I could be by your side every day, but I didn't expect that I still can't."

"Don't be obedient, when the situation stabilizes in the future, I will transfer you to my side, and then we can be together every day."

Mu Qianmei comforted softly.

"That'...... All right! ”

Mo Chou replied reluctantly.

At this point in the meeting, the matter has been arranged, and everyone will go back to prepare for the meeting.

That night, Yun Zhonghe, Mu Qianmei, Zhuang Shujun, Liu Tingfeng, Jiang Yunyi and others took the lead in secretly rushing to Snow City with a team of elite soldiers.

Wearing the stars and the moon, rushing overnight, and taking a shortcut, so the speed is relatively fast.

Early the next morning, they rushed outside Snow White City.

Snow City is the northernmost city in Yunyu Country, and as a border city, it has always been heavily guarded.

From a distance, this city, shrouded in morning mist, has a somewhat ethereal and dreamy feeling.

The three big characters of "Snow City" at the head of the city are also written in ancient characters, and the collocation is very harmonious.

There are also two words "North Gate" written on the head of the city gate, indicating that this is the north gate of Snow City.

At this time, there were already many people waiting under the city gate.

It turned out to be Bai Zhiming, the city lord of Snow White City, who knew the news in advance, and personally led a team of subordinates to line up outside the north city gate to greet him.

When they saw the crane in the clouds and his party slowly approaching on horseback, Bai Zhiming immediately led the team to kneel down and salute:

"Minister Bai Zhiming welcomes the emperor and the princess!"

The people behind also said in unison:

"Welcome to the emperor and princess!"

"Flat, get up, it's really rare to have loyal ministers and good generals like you! It's my honor, and it's been so hard for you all these years. ”

Yun Zhonghe immediately dismounted and said, his tone full of sincere gratitude.

"The ministers don't work hard, and we wait for incompetence to make the emperor suffer so many crimes."

Bai Zhiming said with tears in his eyes, and his words were also sincere.

It turned out that he was secretly picked up by the national teacher Jiang Yunyi until he was the lord of a city. However, Jiang Yunyi repeatedly warned that no one should know the connection between them, so he just hid it in his heart and no outsiders knew about it.

After the "sudden change in the wind and clouds", he was just about to rescue the emperor, but Jiang Yunyi secretly stopped him, telling him not to be exposed and waiting for a better time.

It wasn't until today that he had the opportunity to be loyal to the emperor and repay the kindness of the national teacher, so he was very excited.

After getting up, Bai Zhiming saluted Jiang Yunyi and said:

"Bai Zhiming meets the national teacher."

Jiang Yunyi hurriedly said:

"Excuse me, excuse me, Zhiming has not been easy for you for so many years, you are grateful to keep the White Snow City and keep the capital of a city for the emperor! By the way, everything you have prepared is ready, right? ”

Jiang Yunyi said with a sigh, and then asked.

"Returning to the country, everything is ready."

Bai Zhiming replied.

"Okay, then let's go all the way and talk slowly."

Jiang Yunyi said that he and Bai Zhiming got into the same carriage, Yunzhonghe's father and daughter sat in one, and Zhuang Shujun's brothers sat in one.

The rest of the carriages were behind the father and daughter of the crane in the clouds.

Jiang Yunyi and Bai Zhiming sat in the carriage, talking all the way, and followed the carriage to the Snow White City.

Just now, the crane in the clouds was called out a lot of sighs and memories by the "emperor", as well as a deep sadness and grief.

He sat in the carriage, his mind wandering, his expression uncertain, silently thinking about his thoughts, and did not speak all the way.

Mu Qianmei sat opposite him, as if she felt her father's complicated feelings, and didn't say anything, some pain, even time can't heal it, let alone words of comfort.

She also had a strange feeling of being called "princess", she felt that this princess did not belong to her, and now she was the only one who could bear all the responsibilities that this princess in distress should bear.

"Hey...... This unfamiliar title will probably never be shaken off from this moment on, what else can it do? As the master said, everything just goes with the flow. ”

Mu Qianmei sighed secretly in her heart.

The father and daughter of the crane in the clouds, who had their own concerns, followed the carriage and slowly walked towards the city along the main road in the city.

Along the way, there were soldiers standing guard on both sides of the road, and the shops on both sides were full of ordinary people watching the excitement.

Everyone was talking in a whisper.

"What kind of person is so important that the city lord needs to greet him personally?"

"To be able to greet the city lord in person, and with such a tight defense, he must be a very important person!"

"Except for the people in the palace, who else has such a big posture?"

"Why did someone in the palace suddenly come to our Snow City? Did something big happen? ”

"Does it have to be something big? Maybe I'll just come and inspect it! ”

"I think it's very likely that the emperor is going to the people to choose beauties again!"

"Shh......h Be quiet and don't talk nonsense! ”

……

Although people's discussions were kept as low as possible and very noisy, Mu Qianmei's ear power has always been quite good, and she still heard a lot of information.

"It seems that Bai Zhiming's secrecy work is still very good, and he hasn't leaked any rumors, otherwise people wouldn't be so inexplicable."

"And Yun Tian laughed at the fact that the people's selection of beauties seems to have a greater impact on people's lives, and people still seem to have some complaints."

Mu Qianmei couldn't help but think silently.

When the carriage stopped, someone immediately rolled up the curtain for the father and daughter of the crane in the clouds to welcome the holy driver.

As soon as the father and daughter of the crane in the clouds got off the carriage, they immediately knelt down in front of them.

"See the emperor!"

The crowd saluted in unison.

The crane in the cloud had not fully recovered his thoughts, and when he suddenly saw such a scene, he couldn't help but feel a little like a world away, and his heart was full of flavors.

"Flat!"

This sentence, which has been said thousands of times, has a completely different feeling when it is said now.

Two simple words seem to have become so heavy now.

There is no excitement, only endless emotion.

After everyone got up, Yun Zhonghe looked up at the building in front of him.

The carved building and the painted building, the red wall glazed tiles, look atmospheric and exquisite, although not as luxurious as the palace compound, but also have an antique taste.

A large horizontal plaque on the head of the gate, the dragon flying and the phoenix dancing with the three big characters of "City Lord's Mansion", look at its pen and ink, and the city gate at the "Snow City" three words of the same style, are from the same person's handwriting.

Walking into the City Lord's Mansion, I feel that this building has just been renovated, and there are many signs of renovation.

On the opposite side of the City Lord's Mansion, there are three new buildings that have just been built, and at first glance there is a bit of the feeling of the Jinluan Palace of the Imperial Palace.

Looks like we've been well prepared!

This is a miniature palace building, although it was built in a hurry, it inevitably looks simple, but it is quite shapely.

"Building three such buildings opposite the City Lord's Mansion, no matter how well the secrecy work is done, it must have reached the ears of the Eastern Qin Emperor and the puppet Emperor Yun Tianxiao."

"It looks like this is going to be a place of right and wrong soon, how long can we hold out?"

Mu Qianmei thought to herself.

Due to the overnight journey, everyone felt physically and mentally exhausted.

Bai Zhiming also understood this situation, so he had already prepared a sumptuous meal, and after welcoming Yun Zhonghe and his party into the mansion, he hurriedly put on a feast after a short rest to catch the wind and wash the dust for everyone.

After eating, they were arranged to rest in their respective rooms, which had been prepared in advance.

Mu Qianmei meditated and practiced, which was regarded as resting.

In just over two hours, a few weeks later, she looked refreshed, red-faced, and her tired state was swept away.

The four maids waiting outside the door heard Mu Qianmei's voice getting up, and hurried in to serve her.

"The princess woke up, and the city lord arranged for the four of us to come over to serve the princess."

When the four of them saw Mu Qianmei standing in the room, they all knelt down and saluted together, and one of them, a little older, spoke.

Mu Qianmei didn't quite adapt to it, looking at the four beautiful little girls kneeling in front of her, each of them was twelve or thirteen years old, she looked delicate and beautiful, and she looked quite smart.

"In the previous life, they were all at the age of junior high school!"

Mu Qianmei's first thought was reading.

But when I think about the world and the era they live in, how many people can enter the academy?

"Hey...... it's better to stay with me, just treat them well! I've never given myself any girls before, first, I'm practicing in the mountains, and second, I'm not used to this way of life. ”

"Now that I'm going to take this path, I have to get used to it slowly so that it doesn't feel strange."

Mu Qianmei thought about it, and then asked with a smile:

"What's your name?"

"The slave's name is Chunhua."

"The slave is called Yuhe."

"The slave's name is Qiuyue."

"The slave's name is Xuemei."

The four replied one after another.

"You all get up, you don't have to bow down with me in the future, you don't have to be so restrained, just treat me like a big sister."

"By the way, what are you all going to do?

Mu Qianmei asked again.

"Back to the princess, the slaves and maids mainly take care of the princess's daily life, study ink for the princess, help the princess embroider and the like."

The maid named Qiuyue replied.

The one who had been speaking on behalf of the four of them just now was Qiu Yue, she looked more mature, and she spoke generously, quite generously.

"So have you all read and know how to read?"

Mu Qianmei continued to ask.

"When we arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, Mr. taught us for a while, read a few books, and knew a few words a little."

It was still Qiu Yue who bowed her head and answered.

"Do you want to learn more?"

Mu Qianmei asked with a smile.

"The slaves and maids mainly serve the princess, and they dare not think of reading and reading anymore."

Qiu Yue replied.

Mu Qianmei suddenly said seriously:

"You follow me, you have to do it according to my requirements, it doesn't take much time to serve me, the rest of the time will continue to read, literacy, I will take time to guide you, but more depends on your own learning, comprehension, I hope that my maid in addition to serving people, but also have a certain foundation of knowledge."

Several people looked at Mu Qianmei's serious and unquestionable face, so they had to bow their heads and reply in unison:

"Slaves obey!"

I was a little excited and happy in my heart, and I felt very lucky, I didn't expect this princess to be so different.
