Uncle Tang repeatedly waved his hands and said that he did not dare and only smiled, "Initially thought that Furen would not accept the invitation but did not expect that Furen would accept it. Furen has such courage. This old servant admires." When an ordinary person came to a completely unfamiliar place, their heart would always be a little timid. Not to mention an official's young lady, even if it was a courageous person, when one just arrived, one would need a lot of courage to go to a place full of strangers when one was not familiar with the environment. Moreover one knew that the other party's intention was not good.
"Just going to eat tea and chat." Shen Miao said lightly, "There is no need for courage."
Uncle Tang nodded his head, "Exactly. Exactly." His gaze towards Shen Miao was more satisfied. He gave a few more instructions before retreating.
Shen Miao looked at this Octagonal Anise. Octagonal Anise stood upright and looked at her with a smile. This kind of expression was somewhat silly but made one feel that it was very cute. Today Shen Miao went to the Cai Xia banquet and it was indeed strenuous without anyone to guide her. If there was someone to explain by the side, it would save a lot of effort. Xie Jing Xing was thoughtful and Shen Miao smiled gently. Suddenly she thought of Shen Miao and looked at Octagonal Anise before asking, "It is not that there are no maids in the residence of the Prince of First Rank. You …"
Other than the kitchen maids and a few Moms, there were only manservants and guards in the residence of the Prince of First Rank and there were no maids. Thus Shen Miao brought along Jing Zhe, Gu Yu and the rest and almost became the most popular people in the residence of the Prince of First Rank.
Octagonal Anise smiled, "This servant is not a maid of the residence of the Prince of First Rank. This servant is from the Mo Yu Army and was specially transferred over to accompany Furen."
"Mo Yu Army?" Shen Miao was surprised for a moment. She had heard Xie Jing Xing vaguely mention it before. When they were in Ming Qi, this army had helped Xie Jing Xing to do many things. It seemed that Xie Jing Xing had privately raised these troops and seemed to be extremely powerful. But since Xie Jing Xing dared to let them act so boldly, one think that Emperor Yong Le was not ignorant.
She asked, "Do you know martial arts?"
"This servant knows how to kill." Octagonal Anise answered with a smile. Jing Zhe and Gu Yu both sucked in a breath of cold air when they heard it. It was true that one cannot judge a book by its cover. This smiling Su Ming Lang, who looked like a grown up female, was actually an expert in killing people.
Shen Miao was satisfied. She thought that Xie Jing Xing was really a bad person. He gave the octagonal anise to her and let her go to the Cai Xia banquet. In other words, at least in terms of martial arts, she would not be at a disadvantage.
Shen Miao said, "Since that is the case, then follow me. Jing Zhe will stay in the residence and tidy up the storeroom with Bai Lu and Shuang Jiang. Gu Yu, you and Ba Jiao will set off with me. "
Jing Zhe was almost done packing but was told that she could not go. She felt wronged and was quite dissatisfied with Octagonal Anise. However, she was afraid that Octagonal Anise would kill her in a fit of anger. She reluctantly told Octagonal Anise to take good care of Shen Miao before leaving.
When everything was ready, Shen Miao boarded the horse carriage and rushed to the Cai Xia Banquet venue, the Lu residence.
This time Shen Miao did not bring Mo Qing along. The guards that she brought along were all from the residence of Prince Rui. Naturally she had her considerations. Mo Qing was after all a Ming Qi's person but with the people from the residence of Prince Rui, it would make the other party somewhat fearful and would not easily make a move. It was just that one's mouth was happy and Shen Miao was the one who was least afraid of arguing with others.
Long Ye was different from the Ding capital. The territory of the Great Liang was closer to the East and was more sunny. Even the winter days were not as cold as the Ding capital, much less the summer. Now it was May and if it was in the Ding capital, it would still be spring but in Long Ye, it was already the beginning of summer and there was a slight heat.
As the horse carriage travelled, Shen Miao and Gu Yu lifted the curtains a little to look outside. When they saw that the streets of Long Ye were really bustling with people and carriages, their hearts sighed with emotion.
