peasant queen

Chapter 170 Comeback
Those killers have been preparing for so many days, but they finally came.

Earlier, Grand Master Chen ordered that the lives of Chu Yan and Jiang Wan must be taken.It was only because of scruples about Jiang Wan's martial arts that she did not act for a long time.

Coupled with Wei Zhong's deployment of manpower in the village, those killers were not fully sure that they could kill Jiang Wan.

They planned to wait until Jiang Wan placed the order before doing anything.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Wan stayed in the village for a month.If we continue like this, the Grand Master will come to question him.

Therefore, the new leader decided to take the risk and fight directly in the village.

This time, because Jiang Wan made preparations in advance.She led the old ghost and her killers, and stopped all the dead soldiers sent by Chen Taishi in the forest outside the village.

Grand Master Chen sent a lot of dead soldiers this time, if the old ghost and his killers hadn't intercepted them outside the village, the consequences would have been disastrous.

Jiang Wan had long prevented these dead men from making a comeback, the day after she was assassinated last time.So I wrote a letter and asked the old ghost to lead people to guard on the back hill of the village.

With the cooperation of Jiang Wan and the old ghost, none of these killers escaped.

After killing the men in black, Jiang Wan ordered his killers to drag all the men in black to the nearby woods and bury them.

So as not to scare the early-rising villagers.

After dealing with the dead men sent by Grand Master Chen, Jiang Wan left a few people at the foot of the mountain to protect her family.The rest followed the old ghost up the mountain to help Wei Zhong, avoiding so many people gathering here.

Those who stayed at the bottom of the mountain changed into the clothes of the nursing home and acted as the nursing home of the Jiang family.

After the old ghost led the people away, Jiang Wan also took the six killers home.Ask Qiao Ren to change into them with a few sets of nursing home clothes, and arrange a place for them to live.

Next, Jiang Wan waited at home for another month, and no killer came again.

Jiang Wan was still a little worried, so she asked Yinhuan to write a letter to Chu Yan.How about asking him?Have you been assassinated again?

Within two days, I received a reply from Chu Yan.

The letter said: He is still at the training base and has not been assassinated.But the yamen in Fucheng had a killer in a month, and many yamen servants died, and Liao Hu, the son of Liao Zhifu, was also injured.

Now after treatment, the injury is almost healed.

According to prefect Liao, there were many killers out there.But later, for unknown reasons, some killers withdrew from the yamen.

After reading the contents of the letter, Jiang Wan probably knew what was going on.

Those killers thought that Chu Yan was still in the Qingyuan government office, so they sent so many killers to surround the government office in the first place.

Unexpectedly, after entering, I found out that Chu Yan had already left.

Most of the killers withdrew and came to Jiangyang Village, leaving only a small number of killers to intercept the people in the government office.

But with such a small group of people, so many servants died in the government office, and even Liao Hu was injured.Fortunately, Chu Yan was not there.

Otherwise, more people in the yamen would die.

Jiang Wan also told Chu Yan about the situation on her side, and asked him to speed up the training.Strive to attack the capital as soon as possible, so that you don't have to passively defend all the time.

But no matter how anxious you are, these things can't be completed in a month or two.

Chu Yan is already speeding up the pace of action now, he is not only expanding his manpower.He also asked the prefect under him to order the construction of canals and open roads, and tax exemptions were exempted in places where disasters occurred.

With this series of instructions, Chu Yan's reputation skyrocketed.

After this assassination, Chu Yan no longer intends to hide it.He concentrated all his troops in Qingyuan and Jinyuan prefectures.

With these troops, Chu Yan was not afraid of Taishi Chen sending troops.

Now the border is unstable and the court is chaotic.Coupled with the fact that the previous batch of killers had just been eliminated by Jiang Wan, Chu Yan guessed that Grand Master Chen would not be able to spare the energy to confront him for the time being.

That's why Chu Yan made such a high-profile appearance.

He also has his own purpose in doing this, he wants the people in these prefectures to recognize him as the seventh prince.

Only in this way can he improve his prestige and lay the foundation for future entry to Beijing.

Time passed day by day, and soon it was the end of the year.Seeing that it was about to be the day when her uncle got married, Jiang Wan followed Mrs. Liang to clean up the house.

Separately tidy up a yard for my uncle, where all the maids and servants are in place.

There are also furniture and daily necessities, all of which are bought new and placed in the room, and red happy characters are pasted on all the doors and windows.

As for the house on the Fucheng side, the Cao family also measured the size early and sent over the finished furniture.

The rest of the dowry was sent to the courtyard of Jiangyang Village to display the dowry, so as not to let people think that Miss Cao's family has no dowry.

Because there are two houses, Mrs. Liang prepared double sets of bedding and daily necessities for Jiang Chengshan's two houses.

On the day when the two got married, Jiang Chengshan rode a horse early.He came to Cao's house with a carriage with happy characters on it, picked up the bride in the carriage and went to Jiangyang Village.

Because all the relatives and friends of the Jiang family are in the village, and there are many local adults in the village.Therefore, Jiang Chengshan decided to hold a wedding banquet in the village, and then move to the house in Fucheng after returning home.

Jiangyang Village is half a day away from Fucheng, and there are many people and carriages, so walking will naturally be much slower.

By the time the group of them arrived at Jiangyang Village, it was already past the end of the hour.

Seeing the arrival of the welcoming people, Mrs. Liang hurriedly asked for tea and snacks for everyone.The banquet will start in less than an hour, so I will serve some snacks for everyone to rest their stomachs first.

Jiang Wan sent the bride there in person, and talked to the new aunt by the way.

Jiang Rongjun and Jiang Rongyu also came back from the academy, and even Mrs. Lu and his wife who finished their studies came together.

Seeing that his two nephews were at home, Jiang Chengshan planned to drag them to help him hold the wine together.However, it was stopped by Jiang Wan.

The two younger brothers are only about ten years old, so how can they help my uncle stop drinking.In order to get the younger brothers back, Jiang Wan let the two drunken nurses replace them.

The two brothers Jiang Rongjun and Jiang Rongyu felt a little regretful. They thought they could drink some wine, but they were pulled back before they even started.

The two had no choice but to sit quietly on the table because Jiang Wan was watching.The two didn't dare to run around, so they could only sit and eat vegetables with a group of children in the village.

For his brother-in-law's wedding, Mrs. Liang bought four pigs alone, not counting other chicken, duck, rabbit and vegetables.

Although this wedding ceremony is not a flowing water banquet, the meat and vegetables used are not less than the flowing water banquet.

In addition to the magnificent courtyard of the Jiang family, and the maids and servants of the Jiang family, there are even nearly twenty nurses.

Even in Fucheng, it is difficult to find such a wealthy family. The Cao family who came to see off their relatives were very satisfied with the arrangement of the Jiang family.

This joy, as soon as he relaxed, coupled with the persuasion of everyone at the banquet, several people accidentally drank too much.

Then, several people started the poetry competition in the Jiang family's mansion.Everyone applauded, and even a few of Jiang Chengshan's classmates joined in.

They have all participated in the scientific examination, and the minimum is also born as a scholar.It is not a problem to write a few poems.

The villagers eating together around them don't understand the quality of poetry.Everyone clapped their hands and applauded anyone who wanted to write a poem.
