MTL - Thrown Into the Wolf’s Den! Zaizai Holds Space In His Hands To Survive the Disaster Year-Chapter 603 border blockade
Mo Lingwei paused slightly after hearing this.
He frowned suspiciously: "Your mother? Didn't Mrs. Xie pass away long ago?"
Shen Ningning lowered her eyelashes: "I can't explain this to you in detail. Maybe you won't understand it. In short, my mother did not die, but left in another way. Now she is coming back, and I To help her come back."
Mo Lingwei looked at her with slightly dazed eyes, and his stern face seemed to be filled with disbelief.
"What's wrong, why are you looking at me like this?" Shen Ningning felt funny.
Mo Lingwei pursed her thin lips into a thin line: "From what you said, Mrs. Xie is no different from the legendary goddess."
Shen Ningning's beautiful face was suddenly filled with a smile. She raised her head and felt proud: "Of course, my mother is a more powerful person than a god."
Mo Lingwei's face turned serious: "Then I'm thinking, when I see Mrs. Xie, how should I behave to make it easier for a **** to accept another son-in-law?"
Shen Ningning covered her lips and laughed, "I don't know either."
As she spoke, her smile gradually faded, and her eyes shone with anticipation.
“Because I have never met my mother, I don’t know her personality when getting along with others, and I don’t know what she looks like when she smiles.”
Mo Lingwei couldn't help but hold her hand and comforted her softly: "One thing is for sure, she must be a very good person."
The ship traveled for three days. On the fourth day, Shen Ningning discovered that Mo Lingwei had ordered the secret guards out several times.
Seeing him sitting in the cabin that was built as a temporary study, frowning, Shen Ningning couldn't help but walk in and ask: "Brother, what trouble have you encountered? Did the emperor's uncle write from Beijing, asking you to go back?"
"No," Mo Lingwei's long, frowning eyebrows relaxed a little when he saw her: "I didn't bring many people when I came out this time, about thirty people, all of whom are highly skilled confidants."
"There will be two spies scouting the road along the way. There is news about you in Pingcheng. After they find out, they will come back quickly and report it to me."
"Before setting off to the border this time, I also arranged for two spies to test the road first. According to the original plan, they should have arrived at the border two days ago, but so far there has been no news. My people have also contacted It’s not right to stop having **** with them.”
Hearing this, Shen Ningning started to ponder.
"If you say that, I suddenly remembered that this time on the waterway to the border, there were only boats passing by, but no boats coming out. It's really strange. Could there be something strange at the border?"
Mo Lingwei pursed his thin lips, which also worried him.
"Normally not, because there are 300,000 elite troops stationed at the border. General Peng is the old subordinate of General Liang and General Fang. He is very trustworthy and a loyal minister. Even if there is any change, he will immediately send someone 800 miles to the capital. , but on the way here, I never heard of any fighting at the border."
That’s even stranger.
Shen Ningning thought for a while and suddenly said: "Brother, when we get to the next ferry, let's let the boat pull over and switch to the carriage and move forward."
After she said this, Mo Lingwei guessed the reason without asking.
“Are you afraid of an ambush ahead?”
Shen Ningning nodded heavily.
"When we were in Pingcheng, our identity was accidentally exposed. If someone wants to do something evil to you, now is the time, so let's change the carriage and change into more low-key clothes."
Mo Lingwei had no objection, but was a little worried: "The carriage can't travel as fast as the ship, will it delay your work?"
"Probably not," Shen Ningning shook her head: "The thing my mother mentioned cannot escape."
Hearing this, Mo Lingwei whispered: "I caused trouble for you, but you didn't abandon me. It's great."
As he spoke, he suddenly took Shen Ningning's hand and kissed the back of her hand. Shen Ningning's cheeks suddenly became hot, as if rouge had been splashed on her face. She retracted her hand as if she was electrocuted, and glared at him pretending to be angry: "Stop it, go and give the order!"
Mo Lingwei laughed: "Yes, Crown Princess."
Shen Ningning raised her pink fist to hit him, but Mo Lingwei had already left the cabin.
The girl put down her arms, pursed her red lips, and muttered with her cheeks burning: "I'm not even your crown princess, she calls me so smoothly."
That afternoon, the two of them were at the ferry, wearing inconspicuous clothes, and changing into a carriage.
In order not to attract attention, Mo Lingwei left a guard wearing the coachman's clothes, and two other guards on horses to follow around the carriage.
The rest of the secret guards can't get too close, just follow them nearby secretly.
In this way, we walked all the way until evening.
Mo Lingwei was afraid that Shen Ningning would be tired from sitting, so he asked the driver to stop at a tea shop on the mountain road and take the horse to graze.
He and Shen Ningning appeared in the tea shop, and the host was so happy that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear.
“Finally, we have guests. Oh, it’s such a coincidence that these two distinguished guests have arrived. If it had been any later, I would have closed the stall and gone home.”
Shen Ningning found a seat and sat down, watching the host cleaning the table and preparing tea cups.
She looked around. The tea shop was not big, but there were four tables. It was at a crossroads, so business should be good.
“Master, I think you mean that business is not easy to do?”
"That's not the case!" The chatty host said after waiting for a day, two guests finally arrived. He was holding a teapot and pouring tea, and said: "It's been hard to do business these days. Since Lingshan City was closed, the people inside can't get out. Come on, people from outside don’t want to go in... Huh? Two guests, I see you are going in this direction, you are going to Lingshan City, right?"
The so-called border is composed of a large city and two small cities connected together. Beyond these three cities, it is the border line of Cangyun Kingdom close to Changliu Kingdom.
Shen Ningning and the others are going to Lingshan, a large city.
Hearing what the master said, Shen Ningning was very surprised: "Lingshan City is closed? Why haven't we heard such news?"
She looked at Mo Lingwei, who also frowned and shook his head.
The border closure of the city is a major matter, and the court should receive the news.
The master said: "It was the decision of Master Ren, the governor of the border. I heard that several spies from the Changliu Kingdom had sneaked into Lingshan City and stole the secrets of the army. Therefore, Master Ren locked the city for investigation and was bound to find out. Those people have been there for half a month."
Shen Ningning and Mo Lingwei looked at each other, both of them felt something was wrong.
After drinking tea, we got into the carriage and continued on our way.
They talked about this matter, and Mo Lingwei said: "If the rumors told by the master are true, Prefect Ren probably doesn't want to be punished for not delivering the news to the capital."
Shen Ningning's pretty face had a slight frown on her eyebrows.
“I didn’t expect that the Changliu Kingdom still refused to give up and actually bribed spies to plant them at the border. What else do they want to do?”
Shen Ningning felt that this trip was really the right one.
What's more, both she and Mo Lingwei suspected that something serious had happened at the border, so Governor Ren had to rush to seal the city, unable to get in or out. He was just afraid that the news would leak out and spread to the capital?
