Meng Fang was slightly startled, and soon understood Xiao Qingtian's intention for such an arrangement.

When he disguised himself and invited two strangers to go out to the city to buy military rations, he thought he was doing it very secretly, but he didn't want to be spotted by others.

If this time we go to retrieve military rations and let the military personnel take action, we will definitely become the target of the dark hands again.

Even though we are now near Fengcheng, there is no guarantee that the spirit summoned by some strange magic will not block our way for the second time.

The most suitable and capable people at the moment are naturally the people from the government.

By borrowing someone from Mr. Liu, you can use the name of the government to hide from others. Even if someone notices something strange, the other party will not dare to take action rashly.

After all, the magistrate's majesty is inferior to that of the Xiao family, which has not yet taken root firmly.

Although the Xiao family is in the name of the military department, it is still far behind the government directly connected to the imperial power. After all, everyone in Fengcheng knows that the Xiao family came here after being demoted.

With Mr. Liu's temperament, if the person in the dark really dares to take action, he will never suffer a loss and take it upon himself. He will definitely get to the bottom of it.

The government has its own prestige among the common people, gentry, and nearby counties. If they really find out what happened, the people behind the scenes may no longer be able to hide in the dark and intrude on the Xiao family.

This group of people must not want to get burned by the government's troublesome problem, which is a hot potato.

After some thought, Meng Fang was most surprised that Su Qingtian could think so deeply at such a young age.

When he looked at the little girl again, the look of joy and a little regret appeared on Meng Fang's face again.

What a pity...

If Xiao Qingtian is a boy, it will be a great blessing for the Xiao family and even the Mo country.

Su Qingtian didn't know what Meng Fang was thinking, but her firm heart never changed.

As long as the Xiao family is well and her grandfather, uncle and brothers are well, then she, a little salted fish, can live a happy and carefree life.

During lunch, Meng Fang excused himself from the hospital and went to Nie Chen to explain the matter.

After hearing this, Nie Chen went directly to the Yamen and handed the letter that Su Qingtian had prepared early to Liu Zifeng in person.

After reading the letter, Liu Zifeng summoned Wang Captou, arranged for more than ten government servants, and took several carriages directly to the outside of the city.

The presence of so many government officials and carriages did cause a commotion among the people, but Fengcheng and its surrounding areas were not at peace to begin with. They suspected that Mr. Liu had arranged for someone to clean up the official roads.

Or, they must have gone to surrounding villages to collect money and grain, and started the autumn collection activities in advance.

Following the instructions in the letter, Wang Captou and his entourage came to an abandoned village in the suburbs.

From a distance, they saw a large group of people riding horses and a small one waiting for them.

The bigger one is Meng Fang. The man's already tall figure is riding a black horse, which makes him even more eye-catching.

Beside him, on the back of a snow-white pony was Su Qingtian, who was dressed in aqua red.

This pony was carefully selected by General Xiao as a meeting gift for Su Qingtian from the army. The little girl named it Yinxue the first time she saw it.

Although the arrival of the little granddaughter was unexpected, he, as a grandpa, will never lack one thing that the little baby should have.

Meng Fang originally planned to leave the house masked as before, but the little girl took out the invisibility talisman and quietly slipped out of Fengcheng.

"Everyone is here, let's go."

Su Qingtian waved her hand, patted Yinxue's head and the pony ran out happily.

The little girl looked so majestic and energetic, which made Nie Chen laugh out loud.

"Xiao Qingtian, please slow down."

Meng Fang had never seen Su Qingtian ride a horse. Generally, young ladies in a mansion can indeed learn to ride a horse at a young age, but Xiao Qingtian has only been riding a sedan or walking in and out for so long.

He couldn't help but become nervous, "If you're not in a hurry, you can't fall."

"Yinxue won't throw me, hehe."

The little girl turned her head and showed a sly smile to everyone, "Come on, let's see which uncle can catch up with my Yinxue first."

After saying that, Su Qingtian shouted, "Yinxue, run!"

The pony suddenly sped up and quickly threw away the people behind him.

Meng Fang's expression changed and he immediately chased after him on his horse.

Upon seeing this, Wang Captou also jumped on the carriage and urged the government officials to speed up and not to lose the young lady of Xiao Mansion.

The group of people ran for who knows how long, following Su Qingtian from the official road to the small road, and finally stopped at the bottom of the majestic mountains.

"Uncle Meng, the army rations are in the cave in the mountain ahead." The little girl pointed to the direction of the mountainside not far away, "But now you are not allowed to ride horses, you have to walk there."

Wang Baotou and others behind him naturally heard it and got off their horses or carriages one after another.

"Xiao Ding."

Captain Wang called a young agent and told him, "You stay here and take care of the horses and vehicles, while everyone else goes up the mountain."

Su Qingtian was small, so Meng Fang took her off the pony.

"I'll go ahead in a moment." Meng Fang took out his sword from his waist and said to the little girl, "I heard that there are wild beasts in the mountains and forests here, and very few people dare to come."

"No need to be afraid, wild beasts will not hurt us."

The little girl was not frightened by Meng Fang's words at all. Instead, she led the way with a smile, "Let's go."

I watched as she stepped into the grass that was almost as tall as herself and walked forward without hesitation.

Qu Mengfang, who immediately followed, did not relax because of Su Qingtian's confidence. From time to time, he scratched the grass near the grass with his saber to prevent snakes and insects from injuring the baby.

Naturally, Capt. Wang also knew about the hidden dangers in the mountains. He and the other agents looked around vigilantly, while speeding up their pace to shuttle through the mountains and forests.

Detective Wang quickly followed Meng Fang. He knew that the young lady from the Xiao Mansion was leading the team, but the team was moving too fast.

How could a five- or six-year-old kid be able to move forward so quickly in the deep mountains?

Only Meng Fang knew that the little girl's steps seemed to be flying, but the grass submerged her lower body, and he could not see clearly the frequency of Su Qingtian's legs.

As we walked deeper and deeper, most of the sunlight above our heads was blocked by the dense woods.

The mist filled the forest, making it difficult to see what was going on in the distance.

Without the sunshine, a hint of chill gradually creeped into the warm body, and the hands of Nie Chen and others holding the weapons began to stiffen.

Occasionally, the movement of wild animals passed by them, but Nie Chen never saw any of them clearly.

Walking aimlessly, coupled with the constant vigilance of the surrounding beasts, makes people feel depressed.

"arrive!"

The crisp sound put everyone in a good mood. If they continued walking, they would probably have muscle twitches due to excessive tension.

"Don't come forward, there are wolves!"
