Chapter 249: When is it good to mix fish and dragons?
Seeing Lin Mei's depressed appearance, Wang Huiyuan moved to her side and comforted her softly, "Maybe Aunt Lin is fine......
"I can only hope that this is the case now...... Lin Mei said in a low voice, and glanced at the situation outside the carriage through the heavy curtain of the carriage, revealing it in the rare daylight, it seems that it should be daytime.
"Do you know who they are?" Lin Mei stretched her head hard to Wang Huiyuan's side and asked in a low voice.
Wang Huiyuan hesitated a little, as if he knew the identities of these people.
Lin Mei saw that Wang Huiyuan refused to speak, although she was anxious, she didn't dare to persecute her, otherwise she would accidentally be denounced by her, what would she do?! I'm still young, but I don't want to be appointed like this......
Wang Huiyuan gritted his teeth, glanced at the heavy felt curtain, and then whispered, "They...... If we are beautiful, we will sell them to the coast as prostitutes, or as little wives for some nouveau riche, and in order to raise our value, they will also say that we are women from the capital...... If you don't look good, the price will be much lower, and the treatment you get will be much worse...... If you and I look ordinary, I'm afraid we won't have this good treatment now......"
"This treatment is still applauded?!" Lin Mei glanced at the shabby linen cloth thrown on the carriage, as well as her tightly tied limbs, and couldn't help but roll her eyes.
Wang Huiyuan saw that Lin Mei's voice was louder, but she was so frightened that she turned out to be discolored, and hurriedly bumped into her and motioned her to be quieter. Don't let someone out there catch the car.
"Okay...... You say, you say, I just don't intervene. Lin Mei closed her mouth aggrievedly, her heart full of boredom.
Wang Huiyuan has experienced the events of the past few months. She was much less timid, and she was not as willful and rude as before, so when she saw that Lin Mei was quiet, she forced a smile and continued, "You may not know that there was an ordinary-looking little girl before, who had been ruined by those people a long time ago...... They don't think they can sell it for a good price anyway. It's better to solve it internally, so you and I are lucky......"
Hear here. Lin Mei's face also turned pale, obviously not daring to imagine what she would do if this happened to her......
Wang Huiyuan saw that Lin Mei was honest, so she sighed softly and said with her head down. "Back then. Just outside the carriage, the sound of screaming ...... I hear it clearly......"
Her eyes were full of tears, and she remembered the tragic scene vividly, and she may never forget it in this life.
"Earlier, there was a girl who had been here a little longer than me, about my age, and she told me all those things before...... Afterward. When she was in Linshan County, she was sold, and it was only ten taels of silver......" Wang Huiyuan said here. The voices were all trembling, "The plague is rampant in Linshan County, and the employer who bought her regrets it, but how can these people spit out the silver after taking it?" When the man saw that there was no hope of begging for money, he gave the girl to ......"
Lin Mei looked at Wang Huiyuan with a stiff face and an expressionless face, her hands and feet were cold, and she felt difficult to even blink, obviously frightened.
"So, if there is no perfect solution, it is better for us to stay here honestly, otherwise, once we escape, we will be caught by them, and we are only afraid of ...... We can't escape our doom......" Wang Huiyuan said this, and couldn't help but sobbed quietly.
"Don't worry......" Lin Mei enduring her fear and comforting, "When the time comes, I will definitely come up with a foolproof and good ......"
On the official road leading to other places in Jinzhou City, Shu Wangjin and Shu Zhou were riding horses to Linshan County, at this time there was no one on the official road, Shu Zhou proposed to rest for a while, Shu Wangjin looked at the trajectory of the golden crow in the sky, and nodded and agreed to Shu Zhou's proposal when he saw that it was still early.
"Young master, even if there is an outbreak of plague in Linshan County, but the imperial court will come forward in this matter anyway, why should we be bored?" Shu Zhou only felt that his back hurt, and he couldn't help but complain.
"Other people have the plague, it really has nothing to do with us...... Shu Wangjin untied the water bag and drank a few sips of water after getting off the horse, and his face, which had always been a spring breeze, became rare and indifferent.
When Shu Zhou heard this, he couldn't help but be speechless in secret, and said in his heart that his young master was really cold-blooded and ruthless, and it was no wonder that he ruined other people's families in the business field, on the surface he was like a smiling Buddha, but on the inside he was more indifferent and ruthless than anyone else, and he really deserved to be born to his master.
"It's just that I'm afraid that the court can't do anything about it......" Shu Wangjin said this, frowned slightly, and said in a dignified voice, "This time it's too coincidental......
"Young master, what are you talking about......" Shu Zhou also suddenly realized, and said clearly, "So that's the case, the people of Linshan County are inevitably too unlucky, and they were actually involved in those bad things in the capital......
Shu Wangjin furrowed his eyebrows and said indifferently, "I'm just afraid of ...... Those people in the palace deliberately chose Linshan County as the ......"
"Deliberately?" Shu Zhou was a little puzzled, and was about to ask Shu Wangjin to speak more carefully, but he saw that five carriages slowly came from the direction of Jinzhou City, and the people driving were all stout men, all of whom looked fierce and vicious, and they were very difficult to mess with.
Shu Wangjin was also a little surprised by the dress and dress of this team, and looked at the black-faced man led by him for a long time, although he had many doubts in his heart, but it was not good to stare at strangers like this anymore, so he stared slightly and bowed, which was regarded as an apology.
The big man didn't say anything more, nodded and tightened the reins of the horse in his hand, speeding up the carriage a little.
"This good man ......"
The black-faced man thought that Shu Wangjin had looked at him for a long time just because he was familiar with the wrong person, but now that he saw him calling out to himself, he couldn't speed up the carriage anymore, so he simply stopped the carriage and asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?" ”
Shu Wangjin smiled slightly, leaned over and picked up something from the ground, handed it to the black-faced man, and said in a harmonious voice, "Guys, I wonder if this is your thing?" ”
The black-faced man squinted and saw that it was a jade hairpin made of jasper. What's even more surprising is that the place where the flower head is carved into the shape of a begonia flower. At first glance, it's worth a lot.
The other people's hearts moved, obviously greedy for this hairpin, just this waterhead, at least a few hundred taels of silver, even if they abduct and sell young women, this hairpin can be worth two or three women......
"This little brother, I'm really embarrassed. This begonia hairpin is the love token between me and my lady, these **** girls may still be angry with me, so they threw this hairpin out...... "The black-faced man is much calmer than others." After getting out of the car, he first thanked Shu Wangjin, then pointed to the tightly wrapped carriage, and calmly took the hairpin from Shu Wangjin's hand.
Shu Wangjin curiously glanced at the five tightly wrapped carriages that could not see the light of day, nodded and did not ask more.
"There will be a period later......" The black-faced man took the begonia hairpin into his arms. Only then did he turn over and get into the carriage and drive away slowly.
"Young Master......" Shu Zhou looked anxious. whispered in Shu Wangjin's ear, "Young Master! Are you confused? That's your gift to Miss Lin, Begonia Spring! There is only this one in the whole world...... How could she become that man's wife? ”
Shu Wangjin looked at the back of the carriage in the distance, his face slowly became serious, and he said softly, "That's right, it is indeed 'Begonia Spring', and it was not given to his wife...... It's just that you are wrong about one thing......"
"I said something wrong?" Shu Zhou looked at Shu Wangjin suspiciously. I don't understand the meaning of his words.
"Lin Mei is in this carriage......" Shu Wangjin whispered these words, and his eyes suddenly sharpened. The gaze at the wagon was like an unsheathed sword.
"Miss Lin...... Why is Miss Lin here? Isn't she supposed to be in Linshan County? Shu Zhou didn't believe his young master's words, how could he conclude that Lin Mei was on these carriages based on this hairpin alone?
Shu Wangjin pursed his lips and didn't speak, but took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms and handed it to Shu Zhou, and instructed, "You take this bottle of Tianyuan Dan to Linshan County to find Liu County's order, if I guess correctly, the palace should have sent someone down, and the prince and all the princes are possible...... When the time comes, you see the opportunity. ”
"But, young master...... What about you? Shu Zhou took the bottle of elixir, a little worried about Shu Wangjin.
"After entering Jinzhou City, report to the official ......by the way" Shu Wangjin pursed his lips and said in a deep voice, "I'm afraid that the person I met this time is a human trafficker......"
"People...... Traffickers? When Shu Zhou heard this, his eyes couldn't help but widen.
Shu Wangjin seemed to be a little impatient, now Lin Mei's life and death are uncertain, but Shu Zhou still has so much nonsense, it is simply a deliberate intention not to let him feel better......
"The carriages are so tightly wrapped, and don't you hear a woman crying as you pass by?" When Shu Wangjin said this, he didn't seem to want to explain any more, so he turned over and got on his horse, looked at Shu Zhou condescendingly, and said, "Go your separate ways, remember to report to the officials when you arrive in Jinzhou City, the road they took is the way we came back before, it can be seen that they should also be preparing to go all the way south, when the time comes, you can just talk about this and tell the Jinzhou prefect to listen......"
Shu Zhou wanted to cry without tears when he heard it, Shu Wangjin said it easily, but what if there was danger at that time? The Shu family is the root of his young master's life, if something happens to his young master, I am afraid that Master Shu and Mrs. Shu will be the first to eat him alive!
"Don't be bitter, do this well...... I'll grant you a wish. Shu Wangjin looked at Shu Zhou's sad face, but smiled, with an unpredictable expression on his face.
"Young Master, what you said is true?" Shu Zhou laughed all of a sudden, rubbed his hands shyly, and said in his heart: My own young master is too powerful, how do you know that he has wanted to increase his monthly money for a long time? Oops, it's exciting to think about......
"Naturally, it's true......" Shu Wangjin sat on the horse and squinted at him, smiling weirdly.
Shu Zhou was immersed in his imagination at this time, rubbed his hands excitedly, agreed with his mouth, and watched Shu Wangjin go away with a smile.
Shu Wangjin rode a horse and ran not far, and found the traces of those carriages, and immediately slowed down the speed, thinking that Shu Zhou was fooled by himself, he couldn't help but shake his head and sigh a few times, if he didn't say that, he was afraid that Shu Zhou would be entangled for a long time...... However, if you say so, you can let Qingyan's girl and Shu Zhou be together...... Anyway, the two of them are also childhood sweethearts, and they must have a deep relationship.
Shu Zhou didn't know that his young master had made such a decision to determine his tragic fate in the future......
On the carriage, Lin Mei originally wanted to take out the Begonia Chun, since Begonia Chun was stolen, she **** carried it, and those people did not search their bodies, so the Begonia Chun is still on her now, but the binding posture is too uncomfortable, and every time the carriage collides, the Begonia Chun will hit her ribs, so she wants to take out the Begonia Chun.
"No......" Lin Mei rubbed around the wall of the carriage, and finally squeezed Haitangchun out of her close-fitting clothes, but found that she accidentally rolled out of the carriage window......
At this time, Lin Mei noticed that the carriage seemed to stop, and there was a sound of someone talking outside the carriage, but it was ...... How does it sound so much like Shu Wangjin's voice?!
Wrong...... This is really Shu Wangjin's voice!
Hearing the voice of strangers outside the carriage, the girls who were tied up in the carriages next to them were a little impatient, but when they remembered the bloody methods of this group of people, they didn't dare to shout loudly, so they could only cover their mouths and sob.
Lin Mei suddenly felt like crying, her eyes began to get hot, she sniffed, and the wall pressed her excitement to herself, hoping that Shu Wangjin would be smarter and find the begonia spring that fell to the ground.
Unexpectedly, it didn't take long to know what was happening outside, and the convoy continued to drive again, breaking Lin Mei's excited heart to the point that there was no slag left.
"Woo...... "Shu Wangjin, you big fool......
Lin Mei wanted to cry without tears, so she had to lean her head against the wall of the carriage to find support.
"There seems to be someone ...... outside," Wang Huiyuan said timidly, but she was not as bold as Lin Mei, so she didn't dare to approach the car window at all.
When she got into the car before, those people had already warned her, if she dared to shout when someone passed by with a fluke mentality, she was afraid that the girl from other places would be her fate, in addition, the person had also warned her not to go near the car window, otherwise, if he saw her once, he would starve her for three days as a warning...... (To be continued.) )
