Chapter 437 Besieged
Niu Guangping waved his hands impatiently and told Ma Fenfen to go and get the silver.
When he saw someone leaving the house, he cursed and said,
"You stinky bitch, dealing with you has exhausted me! If it weren't for the money from your mother's family, I would have divorced you long ago!"
After saying that, he walked out of the study door with his hands behind his back while thinking, raised his hand to call the butler over, and started muttering instructions.
A moment later, the butler took the bag of change from his hand, put down his work and hurried out.
No one knows what happened in the Niu Mansion.
**
However, it is true that good news doesn’t travel far, but bad news travels far and wide.
Throughout history, word of mouth has spread just as fast as news.
That same day, every household in the capital city heard the explosive news that the crown prince was to be deposed and exiled.
After hearing the news, some people gloated over the misfortune, some sighed with regret, and some beat their chests and stamped their feet.
Anyway, the prince's character was exaggerated by people with ulterior motives on this day, and after being questioned, he was firmly tied to the pillar of shame.
Of course, people with discerning eyes still don’t believe it. Even most ordinary people don’t believe it even if they have a scale in their hearts.
But no matter how many rumors spread, the fact that the prince was deposed and exiled is an unchangeable fact!

The next day, at the beginning of the Yin hour,
The sky was still pitch black.
After the gate of the palace opened with a dull "creaky" sound, ten guards stood on both sides, escorting eight carriages to exit the gate.
When checking at the palace gate, he was told that the prince's personal guards had to collect swords and leave the horses before they could be allowed to pass.
Eunuch Fu and counselor Qin Huai in the front carriage were furious when they heard this, but they did not alarm the prince in the carriage behind.
Instead, he swallowed his anger and let Lan Yu and Bai Yu do as the rules said! The two of them got on Eunuch Fu's carriage with a grievance.
After some inspection, they finally left the palace.
Outside the palace gate,
The ministers who came to the morning court one after another saw the prince's motorcade coming out.
As if they had agreed on something, without saying a word, they bowed deeply to the second carriage in the convoy and bid farewell silently.
Looking out through the car window, the prince's eyes were a little moist. He could see that these ministers who had come early and waited at the palace gate were all his supporters.
The prince also understood them.
The situation in the court changed suddenly, and they were unable to protect themselves and were powerless to turn the tide for him.
The prince took one last look at the towering palace gate, then looked away.
*
The carriage was moving fast along the road.
The prince's eyes were dark and he looked exhausted. The two babies were also sleeping uncomfortably in the carriage.
Fang Qingge knew that the prince must be in a bad mood to leave the imperial city in this way.
He whispered to the prince,
"Brother An, you must have been tired these past few days! Take the babies into the space to rest for a while! You see, the babies are sleeping restlessly."
When the prince was about to say that it was not necessary, Fang Qingge added,
"I'll call you if anything happens."
The two babies who were restless in sleep suddenly perked up when they heard their mother talking. They held the prince's arms tightly with their little hands and started to act coquettishly.
"Daddy, Jianing wants to sleep on the Simmons bed."
"Daddy, accompany the baby to the villa to sleep."
The prince looked at the two children who were so young and had to wander around with him. His heart softened and he nodded and said,
"Okay! Daddy will accompany you."
Seeing that the prince agreed, Fang Qingge was afraid that something unexpected might happen again, so she moved her mind and sent the three of them into the space in the blink of an eye, and asked the robot Xiaoqi to take care of them!
*
The carriage continued to move forward swayingly. This carriage was no longer the low-key, luxurious and high-end shock-absorbing vehicle that the prince used to ride in!
The high-end carriage had been taken back by the Ministry of Internal Affairs because the crown prince was deposed. Now they were replaced with a few ordinary carriages, the kind that would hurt your butt if you drove fast.
Fang Qingge endured all of this. At most, he would just put a thick mattress under his butt to cushion it.
With the sound of "thump thump" of horse hooves and "rumble thump" of wheels turning, we got out of the city gate smoothly along the way.
However, soon after the convoy left the city gate and passed through a forest, they heard the sound of hurried footsteps coming from all directions.
Immediately afterwards, the eight carriages were besieged by a hundred people in ragged clothes.
With a "Yi" sound, the guard leader Hu Hu turned around and shouted,
"Who are you? Why are you blocking the road?"
Before he could finish his words, the tall horse under him seemed to be frightened.
Suddenly, it raised its front hooves high, neighed, and then spread out its four hooves and galloped forward.
Then the horses behind him chased after him, and they couldn't be reined in. The horses of the ten guards ran away uncontrollably.
However, Niu Guangping, who was running at the end and had a grudge against Fang Qingge, suddenly stopped his horse with a "Yi" sound, and watched everything from afar with a sinister look in his eyes.
*
The crowd that had surrounded the carriage watched the guards' horses run away, and someone whistled.
He shouted loudly with excitement,
"You have betrayed your country and harmed the lives of the people. You are not worthy of riding in a carriage, so you should leave now."
The crowd was excited and started shouting.
"Yes, seize their carriage and make him walk to the North."
As the voice fell, a hundred people suddenly exerted their strength and pulled the people on several carriages down.
The prince's personal guards Bai Yu and Lan Yu ran towards the prince's carriage. Because their swords were confiscated, they picked up the wooden sticks on the shaft of the carriage and started to resist with all their might.
The cart driver, Xiao Douzi, also whipped his horse whip hard to prevent the crowd from getting closer.
Fang Qingge in the carriage was startled by the sudden change. She opened the door of the carriage and heard the hurried voice of Xiaodouzi, the driver.
"Master, please go in quickly and don't come out. They are outnumbered and they won't hurt you."
When Fang Qingge saw the sea of heads, he didn't know how many there were.
In order not to affect others, he hurried back to the carriage.
*
The prince seemed to have heard something in space and asked through voice transmission:
"Qingge, what happened? Let me out of this space now?"
Fang Qingge quickly looked outside through the small car window and sent a message to the prince,
"Brother An, you can't come out. There are about a hundred people outside, all dressed in rags, and their true identities are unknown.
We have no advantage in numbers, and we cannot use force!
Brother An, please calm down. I am listening to what they are saying.
It looks like a trap. They are trying to lure you off the bus and humiliate you.
Don't worry! I'll let the elf go."
After saying that, Fang Qingge stopped listening to what the prince had to say.
He turned his head and glanced at the elf beside him, who was eager to try and prick up his ears, and said,
"Elf, protect all the carriages and rush out. Don't hurt anyone."
"It's the master."
The elf disappeared in a flash.
