Before Xiang Jiuling could see clearly, the man surrounded in the courtyard suddenly rose up, and he didn't know how to get rid of the rope on his body.

Seeing this, several people did not dare to be vague, and immediately started to arrest people. The place instantly became a mess, and Xiang Jiuling was dazzled.

This group of soldiers and bandits are acting recklessly in these troubled times, and those who oppose them should not be bad people.

Xiang Jiuling subconsciously touched the dagger hidden in his sleeve and considered whether to go and help. However, after observing Xiang Jiuling for a while, he realized that he was overthinking it. The man seemed to be able to deal with so many people with ease. In the crowd,

One to the left, one to the right, one to the right, one up and down, but those few people were as tired and panting as if they were being tricked by monkeys.

Just as she breathed a sigh of relief, Xiang Jiuling suddenly felt a chill on her back. As soon as she raised her eyes, she saw something shining with cold light flying straight towards her.

At the critical moment, she quickly dodged to one side, and the thing suddenly settled on the tree behind, making a harsh sound.

Xiang Jiuling looked at the shimmering hidden weapon with lingering fear, frowned slightly, and then looked towards the yard, only to find that there was no one in the lively yard just now. When he was stunned, a cold weapon appeared.

The sword was already placed on her neck.

He raised his head and met the man's dark, cold eyes.

He... what does this mean? Fortunately, she just thought that if he couldn't beat her, she would go up to help. Unexpectedly, the next moment she was being held with a sword at her neck.

"Who are you?" The cold voice seemed to have no warmth at all, and even the surrounding temperature dropped a few degrees.

She is just an ordinary civilian, why does she need such a big battle?

"I came here to take a look because I was afraid that you would be harmed by them, but I didn't expect that it would be unnecessary for me!"

Does her face really look like a bad person? Otherwise, why would he put a sword on her neck without asking any questions?

Oops, if I had known earlier I wouldn’t have joined in the fun, really!

Seeing that she didn't look like she was lying, and recalling that she really didn't make any other moves, the man immediately retracted his sword.

At this moment of effort, Xiang Jiuling ran away. Although she didn't know the man's identity, she knew from his temperament and effort that he was definitely not simple. Now she had important things to do, and she couldn't mess with him.

No need for trouble.

After running for a long time, Yuanxiang stopped to rest for nine years. She relaxed when she saw that no one was chasing her. It seemed that the man also wanted to let her go. Otherwise, with that man's elusive skills, she would definitely not be able to leave so easily.

After returning, Xiang Jiuling did not tell what happened today, but accelerated the purchase of necessary supplies. The family rested in the city for a few days before setting off again.

After spending a lot of time, they finally arrived at their destination—the capital—in the evening.

A few children seemed particularly excited. Looking at the tall and majestic city gate, they exclaimed in admiration and wanted to go in and have a look. This was not comparable to the city gates in small towns.

Finally arrived at the destination, and thinking of the hardships they had experienced along the way, everyone couldn't help but feel like they were surviving a disaster.

Fortunately, they had already prepared household registration documents, and their entry into the city was smooth without any twists and turns.

The capital was indeed as prosperous as the rumors. The streets were bustling with people, selling various snacks, juggling, and singing songs. It was extremely lively, and looked better than any other small town they had ever seen.

bustling.

Qin Zhenzhen stared at everything in front of her with wide eyes, and her heart was like a tidal wave. She didn't expect that one day she would be able to come to the capital. The bustling and bustling place here had exceeded her imagination.

"Okay, stop looking and leave quickly. We have to find a good place to stay as soon as possible."

Seeing that Qin Zhenzhen was fascinated, Xiang Jiuling quickly stepped forward and patted her on the shoulder, and the family quickly found an inn to stay.

This time when they entered Beijing, they could not show off and had to be cautious, so Xiang Jiuling thought that he could use the money he had earned before to rent a small shop and plan to start business first.

She quickly finalized everything, even buying new bedding, and now they were cleaning and making the beds in the newly rented house.

After everything was tidied up, Qin Zhenzhen helped to cook.

"Mom, this soup is so delicious. I like to drink the soup made by my mother the most!"

Sanni was now completely impressed by Xiang Jiuling's cooking skills and kept praising her. This little mouth is really sweeter than honey.

Xiang Jiuling smiled and tapped her little nose: "Okay, Nizi can drink it if she likes it. Mom will cook it for you later. It's over now. It's time to take a bath and go to bed."

The night was getting darker, but Wen Xi still didn't fall asleep. After thinking about it, he decided to discuss with Xiang Jiuling: "When I enter the capital this time, I plan to take the imperial examination. This way I can avoid exposing my identity and can enter instantly.

What do you think about the court investigating what happened back then?"

"Since you said that, it means you have already thought about everything, so just follow your thoughts."

Xiang Jiuling didn't have any objections. After getting along with each other for such a long time, she knew that Wen Xi was a steady person and had nothing to do with being frivolous.

Moreover, she didn't know much about the matters in the court, and women couldn't be officials, so she couldn't help at all with many things. Now that Wen Xi had already made some plans, she naturally expressed her absolute support.

"Well, I will take the imperial examination and try to enter the court as soon as possible to find out the truth."

When Wen Xi thought of those hateful traitors who had harmed so many people for their own selfish interests, he couldn't help but feel resentment in his heart. This revenge would have to be avenged sooner or later, and he would definitely make them pay the price they deserved.

Seeing Xiang Jiuling's somewhat anxious look, he subconsciously reached out and pushed a strand of long hair behind her ear, and whispered: "Okay, it's getting late, don't think too much, go to sleep."

"Okay, don't think too much about it, those evil people will eventually be punished."

She doesn't know how to comfort people, she can only say what comes to her mind, and things in the court have not been clear since ancient times, but whoever is in power has the final say, and if you want to succeed, you must be in a high position.

The next day, the store officially opened and started selling goods.

These little things that Xiang Jiuling sells are not available in Beijing, and they are all very novel, and some of them are exchanged by her from the space. People in Beijing are either rich or expensive, and they can afford to pay for new gadgets.

Everything was sold so fast that Qin Zhenzhen was almost overwhelmed.

After a lot of busy work, I finally felt a little free.

At this time, a beggar came to the door, holding a broken bowl in his hand. His clothes were full of holes, not a single part was intact, and even emitted an unpleasant stench, making people not want to get close to him at all.
