Fortunately, they were all just a half-assed team. She didn't know their background, and they didn't know hers.

So what she has to do now is to not discuss big things with them as much as possible, and let them know as little as possible about small things.

Thinking of this, it turned out that everything was peaceful along the way.

The carriage continued to bump along the way, and Shen Fanghui gradually got used to the bumps.

Even after that, she was able to fall asleep straight away.

But in a hazy moment, I don't know when, the carriage suddenly stopped.

Feeling the carriage stop and hearing the neighing sound outside the carriage, Shen Fanghui immediately opened her eyes.

She curiously opened the curtain, and then she saw a group of strong men carrying swords appearing in front of them, and they only tripped a few horses and injured a few people.

As soon as she saw this situation, Shen Fanghui knew that they had really encountered bandits this time.

As soon as she saw those bandits, Shen Fanghui couldn't help but feel that she was probably doomed.

After all, this Zhu Zanxun was a sick man, and they didn't have many people with him. And this time, there was no Mr. Zhao to escort him, so he was probably going to die on the way.

Thinking of her previous experience, she couldn't help but shudder.

"I planted this tree and opened this road! If you want to go this way, leave money to buy the road." The bandit just shouted loudly.

However, before the bandit finished his roar, a man who looked like a butler suddenly came out. The butler only said sarcastically, "Are you blind? Can't you see who is in the car?" You dared to stop the Yunzhou Magistrate's car and risked your life. Which hilltop are you from?"

Shocked by the steward's aura, the bandit was not going to take this trick, and he was about to go on a killing spree.

"Grandpa doesn't care who you are. If you are rude to grandpa today, grandpa, I will kill you!"

However, when he spoke rudely, the second-in-command beside him suddenly grabbed him, and the second-in-command immediately pulled him aside and muttered something to the other person.

The man seemed a little unconvinced, "So what? Grandpa, am I still afraid of them? At worst, after we finish this job, why don't we just move to another mountain?"

However, when facing the bandit, the second-in-command seemed to hate the iron.

Then he just started talking to each other for a long time.

After hearing what the other party said, the man didn't say anything more.

Then the man stopped moving forward. Instead, the second-in-command came over and said to Zhu Zanxun's steward, "It turns out to be Mr. Zhu's carriage. Please forgive us for not being able to recognize Mount Tai. I will carry the horse for you right now." Please take care of me, please don't argue with us."

Fortunately, the butler also knew how to be merciful and merciful, so when faced with the second-in-command's apology, the butler only said in a condescending manner, "Okay, this time I will treat you as yours." It was an honest mistake, but you can’t let it happen next time.”

The second in command thought that the other party was going to let him go, so he immediately nodded and bowed, and he was only prepared to take the initiative to lead the horse for the other party.

The steward just let the second-in-command arrange for someone to help up the stumbled horse and carriage.

Seeing such a change in attitude, even Shen Fanghui, who was originally worried about the safety of her trip, couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

What's going on? In the past, weren't these bandits always at odds with the government and wouldn't pay anyone's bills?

Now that the bandit is chatting with the officials, I don't know what the situation is.

But when she saw the bandits starting to help each other lift the carriage, she knew that their trip was probably safe.

Although I don't know what the deal is.

But Shen Fanghui is undoubtedly a smart person. She knows that it is safe if the other party does not take action against her. This is enough.

As for the inside story, she didn't need to know too much. After all, people who knew too much would be easily ruined.

Once she understood this, Shen Fanghui couldn't help but lower the curtain.

When Shen Fanghui peeked out, the two maids naturally did not dare to lie outside and watch. They only said to Shen Fanghui, "Miss, what should we do now?"

Another timid maid was so frightened that she cried, "Miss, I don't want to die."

Facing their inquiries, Shen Fanghui just said impatiently, "If you don't want to die, just shut up."

Upon hearing Shen Fanghui's scolding, the maid was immediately frightened and did not dare to cry anymore.

Then Shen Fanghui just looked at the other maid and whispered, "It's okay now. Just clear up your expressions and wait until you are on your way."

The maid was obviously still curious, "Is everything okay? Are we really okay?"

After saying this, the maid even wanted to open the curtain again and take a look at the situation outside, but her actions were glared by Shen Fanghui. After being glared by Shen Fanghui, the maid naturally said no more.

Then Shen Fanghui just continued to lean against the wall of the carriage and do a light sleep. At the same time, she only ordered two maids to come over and beat her legs.

The two maids did not dare to resist, so they could only obey.

After beating his legs for only a moment, the car curtain couldn't help but be opened.

At that moment, the two maids couldn't help but look at the people outside the car curtain like frightened birds.

They all thought that the bandit was coming to rob someone.

And Shen Fanghui only opened her eyes at this time.

The person who opened the curtain glanced at the reactions of Shen Fanghui and the two maids, and seemed to understand something.

Then he smiled and said to Shen Fanghui, "Miss Hui, the little scare just now has been resolved now. Didn't I scare you just now?"

Shen Fanghui just said calmly, "It doesn't scare me. What can happen to us?"

Then she glanced at the two useless girls and said, "But these two girls are a little scared. After all, we were scared by bandits before."

Hearing Shen Fanghui's words, the man only smiled and said, "Don't worry, girls, this road is a highway, and it's clear sky and daylight now. How can the bandits have the courage to show up here."

What this person said is obviously telling lies.

Shen Fanghui still had to cooperate with him and said, "What you said makes sense!"

After listening to Shen Fanghui's words, the man then just whispered as if to warn, and then said as if to remind, "Sometimes being too curious is not a good thing. If Miss Hui enters the house in the future, it is best to watch her less and take care of her less." listen."

Regardless of whether the other person reminded or warned, Shen Fanghui only regarded the other person as having good intentions. She only said, "Thank you for the teaching. Don't worry, Huiniang will definitely do her part well."

After saying this, Shen Fanghui just signaled her maid to hand over some money to the other party.

However, the man didn't accept her money at all. He just said bluntly, "I don't accept anything from a dead person."

Hearing this, Shen Fanghui couldn't help but feel a little scared.

However, Shen Fanghui didn't wait to ask what he meant.

After the man said this, he lowered the curtain and left.

After the man left, the maid next to Shen Fanghui immediately looked at Shen Fanghui in fear and said, "Miss, what does he mean by this?"

However, Shen Fanghui immediately said coldly to the maid, "You don't care what he means. If you are smart, you have to remember what he just said for me. Otherwise, if something happens to you, I can't protect you." . And from now on, don’t show any surprise to me in front of them.”

Although the two maids were frightened by Shen Fanghui's words, they had no choice but to nod.

From the incident just now, Shen Fanghui began to realize that she was not the real Miss Lu. Maybe her husband already knew this, which was why he was so cold to her.

As for the reminder from the dead man, it is actually a warning to himself.

Although she didn't know why that person warned herself and gave herself these reminders.

But my current situation is not good. If I don’t want anything to happen,

I'm afraid it's not enough just to not listen or see, she must find a way to hug someone else's thigh, otherwise how could she gain a foothold in the back house of Yunzhou Prefecture.

At the moment, the only thigh she can hug seems to be Mr. Zhu, who seems to be weak and easy to deal with.

Although the other party seems to be somewhat repelled by him.

But right now, I don’t have any better dependency path.

On this side, Shen Fanghui has already made plans to hug her thighs.

On the other side, the housekeeper just now was instructing the coachman beside him to hang the lantern on the carriage.

Obviously such lanterns should be hung up at night, but it is still noon, and they have hung up lanterns with Zhu characters on them.

From this point of view, it seems a bit strange.

While the butler was giving instructions, the servant who had just gone to notify Shen Fanghui returned to the butler.

"Butler Xu, I have already told Miss Hui that everything is fine now."

Upon hearing that person's words, Butler Xu just said expressionlessly, "What did Miss Hui say?"

"She only said hello. And it seemed that she was not frightened. She seemed to be just sleeping when what happened just now." The man only told Butler Xu about Shen Fanghui's performance in detail, but he When talking about the other party's performance, there are some elements that are deliberately concealed.

And the hidden ingredient was naturally the performance of the other two maids.

Now that he doesn't tell them about their behavior, Shen Fanghui will naturally act like an ignorant girl instead of a thoughtful pretender.

"Asleep? I don't think so. Maybe he's pretending to sleep."

Just when Butler Xu said hello and motioned for the servant to get down, such a voice suddenly came from inside the carriage. Then the man just started coughing like crazy again.

Hearing that voice, the slave naturally didn't dare to speak anymore.

But Butler Xu responded cooperatively outside.

Then Butler Xu just waved his hand to the servant silently.

The servant knew what Butler Xu meant and immediately retreated.

Watching the opponent retreat from here, Butler Xu gave the team another command, "Let's set off on the road."
