MTL - Thrown Into the Wolf’s Den! Zaizai Holds Space In His Hands To Survive the Disaster Year-Chapter 608 Are you going to be exposed as soon as you enter the city?
The soldier lifted the curtain and saw a young couple. Shen Ningning was lying in Mo Lingwei's arms, looking pale and uncomfortable.
This is something they discussed in advance.
Because, Prefect Ren should know that his servants were preparing to assassinate Ren Liuyue and Fang Huan on the road.
So he definitely didn’t expect that they would come back alive.
Shen Ningning wanted to pretend that she had escaped from death and was frightened.
The soldier looked at them suspiciously: "You are not sick, are you?"
Mo Lingwei remembered Shen Ningning's instructions and said with a cold attitude: "We met gangsters on the way here. My wife was frightened, not sick."
The soldier stretched out his hand: "Show me your jade certificate."
Mo Lingwei handed over the jade certificate of identity, along with a letter from Prefect Ren asking his daughter to return home.
“My wife is Ren Liuyue, the eldest daughter of the prefect Ren. This time she returned to Lingshan City at the invitation of the prefect.”
After Mo Lingwei finished speaking, the soldier's expression changed. He checked the jade certificate carefully, then raised his head and looked at them.
Then, he said: "You guys wait a minute!"
After the soldier finished speaking, he ran away. Shen Ningning lay in Mo Lingwei's arms and opened her eyes.
She asked in a low voice: "What did he do? Did he find that something was wrong with us?"
Mo Lingwei raised the curtain and looked outside with sharp black eyes: "No, he went to ask the chief officer. It seems that Prefect Ren greeted the guard at the city gate and said that his daughter would come back."
After a while, the soldier came back with three colleagues. They directed the coachman: "Take the carriage to the side!"
The coachman was anxious: "I am a coachman from a nearby post station, and this carriage also belongs to a post station. I am wasting time waiting here."
The soldier said unceremoniously: "There's nothing we can do about it. You can't enter the city now. You have to wait until we confirm with the prefect!"
The coachman turned around and said to Shen Ningning and Mo Lingwei behind the curtain: "You two gentlemen, you have heard what I said. We agreed to arrive at Lingshan City before this evening. If we exceed this time, you will have to pay more." ."
This time, without Shen Ningning having to speak, Mo Lingwei answered quickly.
“How can we have any extra money to give you?”
The soldier stood at the door of the carriage and listened. The officer-in-charge stood not far behind him, scanning the two of them cautiously.
Shen Ningning raised her pale face and tugged on Mo Lingwei's sleeve.
“Sir, forget it, let’s get off the carriage and wait, and don’t make things difficult for the driver.”
The two of them got off the carriage together. Mo Lingwei supported Shen Ningning. Although he was dressed as a scholar, his aura was as majestic as a sword, as if he stood out from the crowd. The people lining up around him all looked at him appraisingly.
Mo Lingwei hugged Shen Ningning and let her lean against him. He couldn't help but get angry, and his tone was faintly displeased: "We have even shown the jade certificate and the letter, how can we still have a fake one? How long do we have to wait? My wife is frightened and needs to take a good rest."
He originally did it based on the character of the teacher Fang Huan. After all, Fang Huan himself said that he was not afraid of power and had the backbone of a scholar. His wife's happiness was the thing he wanted to protect most.
So it makes sense for Mo Lingwei to express his dissatisfaction in public now.
Unexpectedly, his cold face and intimidating aura shocked the few soldiers beside him.
They looked at each other and hesitantly said: "We also do things according to the orders of the chief officer, so let me go and get a chair for your wife to sit down and rest for a while."
Speaking, he ran towards the tent not far away.
While they were waiting, Mo Lingwei asked the young soldier: "How long do we have to wait? Please give me an accurate answer." The young soldier turned back, glanced in the direction of the chief officer, and then whispered: "I don't know either, the previous prefect Your Excellency has ordered that if the young lady at home returns to the city, she must be picked up by someone from the Ren family. Just now I heard that the chief officer went to notify the wet nurse of the Ren mansion. I think Miss Ren's wet nurse will be here in a short while."
Shen Ningning suddenly tightened her sleeves on Mo Lingwei's sleeves.
Wet nurse? Ren Liuyue never said that she had a wet nurse staying in Ren's house.
If she was really a wet nurse, she would definitely recognize the real Ren Liuyue.
After the little soldier finished speaking, he was called away by the chief officer.
Shen Ningning raised her eyes, looked at Mo Lingwei, and asked in a low voice: "What should I do? If I am found to be impersonating, brother, are your secret guards still nearby?"
Mo Lingwei nodded: "Don't worry. If he is really discovered, it will save me the trouble of dealing with him. Besides, this wet nurse may not be worth fearing. After all, Ren Liuyue herself said that not long after she was born, she was killed by her maternal grandfather. After being taken away, even if there is a wet nurse, she only met Ren Liuyue when she was very young."
After waiting for a while, a carriage drove out from the side gate of Lingshan City and stopped in front of Shen Ningning and the others.
A woman wearing silk tapestry with a round face and long eyes walked down from above.
Looking at her dress, one can tell that she is a well-known person in the mansion. Otherwise, how can an old nun deserve to wear Kesi?
When she saw Shen Ningning, she was suddenly startled.
Shen Ningning burst into tears and made a preemptive strike: "Are you a wet nurse? Why don't I recognize you? Could it be that my father thinks I'm a burden and just finds someone to talk me out of."
The wet nurse hurriedly came back to her senses: "Oh, Miss, what you said is wrong. The master is most nervous and concerned about you. It is natural that you don't recognize the old slave. The old slave only hugged you when you were just born. Later, After more than ten years of separation, I see you now so graceful and graceful."
Shen Ningning was relieved. As Mo Lingwei said, this wet nurse had only taken care of Ren Liuyue in name.
The wet nurse also pretended to squeeze out some tears: "It's good that the eldest lady is back. The master is looking forward to you every day. Come on, let's go back now. The master and his wife are all in the mansion, waiting for you."
Shen Ningning said "Hey", held Mo Lingwei's hand, and got into the carriage together.
Sitting in the carriage, the wet nurse kept her eyes on Mo Lingwei quietly.
"Is this my uncle? I heard that he was a talented person before, but now I see him, he is really good-looking."
Mo Lingwei glanced at her and hummed coolly.
Shen Ningning secretly observed the wet nurse's expression and saw her purse her lips, which showed that Mo Lingwei's reaction was correct.
Fang Huan always felt that Ren Liuyue was abandoned by his father, so he was angry with him.
As a scholar, of course he would not have a good look towards the Ren family. Mo Lingwei's cold face made the wet nurse find it a bit attractive. She said nothing more and only had **** with Shen Ningning. Small talk.
The wet nurse asked about her past over the years, and Shen Ningning answered fluently.
Fortunately, Ren Liuyue had told her a lot in advance. In addition, Prefect Ren really didn't care enough about this daughter, so the Ren family didn't know many things about Ren Liuyue.
Only some major events such as marriages and the death of Ren Liuyue's maternal grandmother are known.
As the carriage drove by, Shen Ningning saw through the swaying curtains that many elite soldiers were patrolling, and not many people were lingering on the street.
She couldn't help but ask: "Nurse, why is Lingshan City different from what I remember? Why is it so heavily guarded?"
The wet nurse answered vaguely: "Oh, the city is catching spies recently."
“Spy?”
