There were at least 300 people in the long queue, with continuous red flags waving in the wind, winding along the mountain road.

This is an army.

Jiang Wan is in the position of commander in chief of the team.

Her facial features were bright and her eyes were like stars, but her expression was cold and she exuded a strong aura that would keep strangers away.

Everyone else walked, but Jiang Wan had a mount. Her mount was a large, majestic black mastiff.

There is no need to dress up to enhance Jiang Wan's majesty. Just standing there makes people dare not look directly at her or look down upon her.

"...Wanwan?!" The Jiang family was shocked.

Is this really their night? !
"Oh my God, why did Wanwan become exactly like my father and elder brother?" Jiang Jie was shocked, "It's so cold..."

Where did that soft girl with two sweet pear dimples on her face look like red bean paste buns go? !

Jiang Fangliang and Jiang Jiao, who were named, also had mixed emotions. For the first time, they felt that it was a particularly bad thing for Wanwan to look like them!
Jiang Ao and Jiang Lian were equally distracted. Bai Suyi stared at her somewhat unfamiliar daughter, reluctant to blink.

After Jiang Wan became Da Po, she rarely felt such direct sight.

She looked sharply at the Jiang family, who stood out in the crowd. When she saw the turbulent emotions on the Jiang family's faces, Jiang Wan's eyebrows, which were just a slight frown, suddenly tightened.

She stopped the reins and asked, "Who are these people?"

It was obviously the first time I met her, but why... did I feel a strange sense of closeness to her?
Jiang Jie was the most impulsive and immediately waved and shouted: "Wanwan! I am the fourth brother——"

But the scene where he imagined Wanwan happily recognizing them did not happen. Jiang Wan's eyes were full of unfamiliar indifference.

Like a person without emotions.

"How dare you! How dare you call Da Po by her first name!" Orion, who escorted them through the complex, felt extremely regretful. He really shouldn't have listened to Brother Miao's advice!
He reached out to press Jiang Jie's shoulder, but before his slap could land on Jiang Jie, Jiang Lian kicked him away.

The other two hunters also rushed forward, but they were easily defeated by Jiang Lian.

"There are assassins—!"

Jiang Lian's extraordinary skill attracted the vigilance of the guards. With a bang, the guards raised their weapons to protect Jiang Wan and surrounded the Jiang family.

The tense atmosphere was on the verge of breaking out.

Just when the guard's cold blade was about to attack, Jiang Wan stopped them with a voice: "Stop."

The guards were trained to stop their movements immediately.

The Jiang family at the center of the conflict secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Who are these people? Who brought them?" Jiang Wan asked in a solemn voice.

The Orion who was knocked down by Jiang Lian kowtowed to the ground: "Hui, Hui Dapo, we accidentally discovered them when we were patrolling outside Xiazhai. They were dressed strangely and their accents were not from Manggu. We suspected that they were craftsmen, so we Catch them!"

It turns out that these people are not hunters, but patrols from the village.

"We are not craftsmen, nor are we assassins." Jiang Fangliang observed the words, and after pondering, he said: "Our family comes from a foreign land overseas, and we came to Dapo Village to find relatives."

When he said the last two words, he looked directly at Jiang Wan without any hesitation.

Jiang Wan admired and was surprised by his calm demeanor.

Raising her eyebrows, Jiang Wan's eyes stayed on the faces of Jiang Fangliang and Bai Suyi for a few seconds, and she said calmly: "In this case, let's hand it over to the Mu Guan for review first."

She looked away and raised her voice to ask the team to continue marching.

When Jiang Wan walked away, the guards got up from the ground, glared at the Jiang family unhappily, and then passed the escorting job directly to Brother Miao.

"It's all your fault! You insisted on bringing people into Dapo's village, which offended Dapo. Fortunately, Dapo is generous and doesn't care! Who knows where these people come from? We can't afford to be accused of collaborating with the enemy! You can see for yourself Let’s do it.”

Brother Miao apologized with a wry smile. After they left, he said to the Jiang family: "Come with me."

"This little brother, our surname is Jiang, what should I call you?" Jiang Jiao took the initiative. "My name is Damiao. You guys are really lucky. You were supposed to be escorted to the Criminal Trial Department, but your skin peeled off no matter how you entered. But Da Po spoke and let the wooden official interrogate you - the wooden official is in charge of the trivial matters of the people. You If you want to stay in Dapo Village, you have to register at Muguan Mansion and get an identity card."

Only then did the Jiang family realize what kind of crisis they had escaped.

"I see, thank you so much, Brother Damiao." Jiang Jiao imitated the look in costume dramas and bowed his hands.

Brother Miao frowned, "Are you from the Northern Han Dynasty?"

Jiang Jiao denied it, and Brother Miao said, "Then you should follow the local customs and learn our etiquette. Be careful not to be arrested again as a spy of Hanyuan people."

"Are you fighting?" Jiang Jiao asked bluntly.

After arriving in Mang Valley, the words that the Jiang family heard most were "fine work" and "assassin." Coupled with the army of Gencai and the strict atmosphere of security in the village, it was difficult for the Jiang family not to associate with war.

Brother Miao nodded, "Yes, the emperor of Hanyuan covets the gold and silver salt mines in Mang Valley, and it has been almost a year since the war started."

The Jiang family members gasped and looked at each other. Bai Suyi asked hurriedly: "That night, she...I mean Dapo, did Dapo go to the battlefield too?!"

Brother Miao met the nervous gazes of the Jiang family and said, "No, Da Po is the most noble person in Mang Valley. How can she go to the battlefield so easily?"

The Jiang family breathed a sigh of relief, but their worries did not lessen much.

Brother Miao didn't dare to ask them what kind of marriage they were looking for, so he sent them to Mu Guan Mansion and left.

Then the Jiang family was interrogated in detail for two hours before they walked out of Muguan Mansion with their hard-won temporary ID cards.

"Where are we going next?" Jiang Lian asked.

The wooden official asked them to find a job and a fixed residence within three days, otherwise they would be expelled from Dapo Village.

Jiang Ao analyzed rationally: "Wanwan doesn't seem to know us at all. The best way to get close to Wanwan is to live in Dapo Palace or work beside Dapo."

"But can we enter Dapo Palace?" Bai Suyi looked at the towering palace on the top of the mountain.

In the Chongxiao Baojian before, because they had always seen it from the perspective of little Jiang Wan, they didn't realize how big the place where Da Po lived was, and thought it was just a small bamboo building.

At this time, a small soft sedan stopped in front of them, and a female official opened the curtain: "Dapo invites us to visit some foreign guests."

Jiang Wan did not rest after returning to Dapo Palace, and immediately began to deal with the work accumulated during his time away.

It wasn't until the candlelight dazzled her eyes that she raised her head and pressed her shoulders tiredly.

"What time is it?"

"It's half past Xu time." Jin Guan replied, "Do you want to eat, Da Po?"

Jiang Wan: "Forget it, I have no appetite."

Jin Guan: "Those foreign visitors are still waiting at Chunxin Hall. Does Da Po want to see them now?"

Jiang Wan thought of those six faces that made her feel friendly, and her delicate brows furrowed: "Jin Guan, do you think I look a lot like them?"

Jin Guan lowered his head respectfully and did not dare to answer.

Jiang Wan pinched her eyebrows and said, "Emperor Hanyuan is full of tricks and has taken a Gu witch as his concubine. Do you think this could be some kind of conspiracy?"

Jin Guan shook his head honestly and said he didn't know.

"Send over the results of the Mu Guan's interrogation." Jiang Wan took the official document and just turned the first page and asked again: "Can you pass the food to them?"

Jin Guan said it was passed down.

Jiang Wan nodded, "I won't see them today. We'll talk about it tomorrow."

She browsed through the lines at a glance, "They should have nowhere to stay tonight. Let's arrange for them to stay in the guest hall."

After a pause, Jiang Wan added: "The visitor is a guest, so don't be indifferent." (End of Chapter)
