However, the situation ahead was somewhat beyond her expectation, she quickly pulled up the rope to slow down the horse.

"Call-"

It was still late at this time, but the gate of the east city had already been closed, and a row of soldiers in armor stood on the top of the city wall, each of them had a serious expression and exuded a murderous aura.

What exactly is going on?

Lily was stunned for a moment, jumped off the horse neatly, grabbed a passing aunt, and asked politely: "Auntie, what's going on? Why is the city gate closed now?"

The aunt was stunned for a moment, and said anxiously: "Little girl, you don't know yet! A large number of refugees outside the city are approaching the capital. I heard that they are already more than ten miles away. The official of the department has sealed the city by order, and no one is allowed to enter or leave!"

"What?!" Lily exclaimed in disbelief.Unexpectedly, the son's letter just arrived, and the refugees from Huaibei have rushed to the outside of the capital city!Three Girls and Baihui are still in Cuiwei Mountain!In case the refugees riot... Lily can't even think about it.

What can we do now?

Lily is very anxious, she has only been in the capital for a few months, and she usually stays in the Nangong mansion. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is not familiar with the place, but her greatest helper is thousands of miles away in the south of the Yangtze River!What should I do?

She looked at the city gate again, and was convinced that she had no way to force her way in, so she had to get on her horse and turn around. She had to reply quickly and inform the second master of the matter.

Now it can only rely on the strength of the Nangong family!

……

At the same time, Nangong Yue, who was far away on Cuiwei Mountain, still knew nothing about the refugees going north. She was anxiously waiting for news from Nangong Cheng in the Yuewei Pavilion.

The time has passed for a stick of incense, and it is still raining heavily outside.

Seeing that Han Huaijun and others had not returned for a long time, Nangong Yue could no longer hold back the anxiety in her heart.

"Yimei, Baihui, let's go and find Big Sister!" Before she finished speaking, she rushed into the rain curtain with two servant girls.

Xiao Yi, who never left her mind, also followed without saying a word.

"Sister Yue!" Jiang Yixi stretched out her hand to stop her, but she was still a step too late, Nangong Yue had already run away.She frowned, and immediately made a decision in her heart, "Wait for me, I'll go with you too." As she said that, she also planned to rush out of the pavilion, but before she could do so, she was anxiously stopped by her personal maid .

"Miss, it's raining so hard, the road outside is wet and slippery, you can't go!"

Jiang Yixi was blocked like this, and when she raised her eyes to look again, Nangong Yue was nowhere to be seen, so she had no choice but to give up.

The rain was like weaving, blurring Nangong Yue's vision. The visibility was already extremely bad, not to mention being in the mountains, surrounded by tall trees and lush bushes and weeds, which further hindered the vision.

She could only search while shouting: "Big sister..." I hope Nangong Cheng can respond after hearing it.

"Big girl..." Yimei and Baihui also called out.

Xiao Yi followed closely behind them, while searching around, he kept his attention on Nangong Yue.

The heavy rain soon soaked all the clothes of the four of them, and the temple hair was wet against the forehead, and the corners of the skirts and the hem of the robe were splashed by the muddy and dirty water on the mountain path, but Nangong Yue could no longer care about it. Difficult to move forward in the torrential rain.

"Big sister! Big sister!"

Nangong Yue's voice was drowned out by the sound of the rainstorm, but she still did not give up, let go of her voice and continued to shout.
