There is a kind of willfulness in this world called "don't hit the south wall and don't look back", and there is also a kind of willfulness called "don't look back if you hit the south wall", but Li Lingrui just forgot that there is still a kind of willfulness in his world, called "Lin Wanjing" - when he realized this, Lin Wanjing had already taken a fake identity certificate, took Li Chengtai, and led his own carriage and horse to cross the border of Ganzhou with the army of the Chamber of Commerce......

Li Lingrui went to look for Liu Jin for the first time, but he didn't see Liu Jin, but he saw Ye Qiuluo, Ye Qiuluo only said that Liu Jin went to the sea, how long he was going to go, and when he would come back, no one knew. Li Lingrui had heard about the entanglement between her and Lin Wanjing, and now was not the time to explore the truth of this sentence, so she had to ask her friends in Ganzhou to inquire about Lin Wanjing's news.

The relationship between Luzhou and Jiangxi is delicate, and in the current troubled times, the warlords of all factions are waiting for an opportunity to move - Luzhou has occupied the land of abundant water and soil on the southeast coast by virtue of the time and place, leaving only the adjacent Ganzhou only between the valleys that are difficult to develop and often flooded, and the western border of Luzhou Guangdong Province has coveted the coastline of Luzhou for a long time, and has tried to persuade the Ganzhou alliance several times to attack Luzhou inside and outside and divide the results, this proposal is indeed a great temptation in Ganzhou**, but compared to their own and Guangdong Province's troops, the disparity is too great, Ganzhou** He is also worried that after joining forces to annex Luzhou, he will inevitably become the next target of Guangdong Province.

Now that Lin Wanjing has gone to Ganzhou recklessly, Li Lingrui is worried that if something happens to her, it will definitely become the cause of the exchange of fire between the three forces.

Although Li Lingrui is not a business wizard, he has to say that he does have his own strength in the control of contacts - friends in Ganzhou quickly helped him get the transit information within the border army, but said that after checking the records, he could not find the woman surnamed Lin he said, but I remember that there were two men and a female servant with a headscarf, and the woman said that the two of them had to dress up like this because of the wind and cold on the way to come, she claimed to be the second lady of Hengguang Far East Group, and she also held a certificate signed with Li Lingrui's name in her hand.

Maybe others are still in the dark, but Li Lingrui knows it - this person must be Lin Wanjing. Not to mention that the second miss of the Li family was far away in Nanyang and never came back at all, just talking about his friendship with Lin Wanjing, Lin Wanjing wanted to imitate his tone to make a document and sign his name, which can be said to be easy.

At this point, it is impossible to chase people back. Li Lingrui thought of hundreds of ways to teach her a lesson, but when she picked up the pen, she couldn't write a word, and finally let out a long sigh, crumpled the letter paper, and threw it into the paper basket.

Yu County, a border city in Ganzhou.

The flash flood washed away a section of the East Longitudinal Railway in Yuxian County, and a large number of passengers were stranded in the small county town. Lin Wanjing and Li Chengtai mingled among the travelers, slowly walking along the small river passing through the city. Tired of walking, Lin Wanjing casually chose the iron chain between the railings and sat down, swinging like a swing. Li Chengtai stood on the side, hesitated again and again, and finally spoke:

"Young Lady ......"

"Shhhh Lin Wanjing interrupted him, "Call Miss!" ”

Li Chengtai was stunned for a moment, and his throat moved a few times before he said, "Xiao...... Miss ......" Seeing that Lin Wanjing was very satisfied, she continued: "We've been out for a few days, and since we can't find anyone, let's just go back." ”

His words said to Lin Wanjing's heart, and Lin Wanjing sighed: "How can it be done, Yiguang is pregnant, you look at the chaos here, I'm really afraid that something will happen to her." ”

"But there's no way for us to spend it here, if we continue like this, ...... I'll be worried. ”

"It's not like I didn't tell him......" Lin Wanjing pouted, she was unhappy when she mentioned it, but even so, she couldn't hide her lack of confidence.

Before leaving, she went to inform Liu Jin, but it was not the right time for her to go, Liu Jin was in the office talking to the staff about important military affairs, and when she came, everyone was silent, only to hear Liu Jin ask:

"Is there something wrong?"

"That...... Yunrou, I'm going to pick up some goods for my family, and I may have to go out for a few days, so I'll tell you......"

"Oh." Liu Jin's voice was cold and a little displeased, as if she was dissatisfied with her blocking the regular meeting because of this trivial matter: "If there is nothing else, you can go back first." ”

That's what he said at the time, without asking her where she was going, how long she was going, and not even a word of advice like "be careful on the road".

Recalling this, Lin Wanjing already felt cold, she stood up, patted the wrinkled skirt on her body, and sighed:

"I'm afraid he won't know that I'm not in Luzhou......"

Li Chengtai heard this sentence clearly, didn't have time to ask in detail, but heard a splash, and then, the crowd not far away exploded, and the people of good deeds ran to the river bank with their work, and then looked at the river, a pair of small hands were struggling hard, and the little head was floating and sinking in the waves, and he just drank a big sip of water when he was about to call for help. The nanny-like woman was crying and begging for help on the shore, but passers-by just shook their heads and remained indifferent, watching the little girl struggle farther away from the embankment. A few days after the flood peak, the water at the bottom of the river was complicated, and soon the little girl was dragged into the water, leaving only a small hand waving on the surface of the water.

Lin Wanjing nodded to Li Chengtai, Li Chengtai ran quickly to the place where the girl fell into the water, and a thunderous man plunged into the river, such a water potential is not worth mentioning for him, a lieutenant from the navy, but seeing him quickly approaching the girl, he skillfully took his unconscious little body into his arms, and dragged her head to the shore.

The crowd gave way to an open space, Li Chengtai just put the wet little girl on the ground, the nanny had already pounced, holding the clammy little body and shouting, the little girl had no reaction, lying on the ground motionless with a blue face.

"Let me see." Lin Wanjing pushed aside the crowd and walked to the little girl, after checking the carotid pulse, she took off her coat and knelt on the ground, folded her hands on the little girl's chest, and pressed it down - cardiopulmonary resuscitation is the first aid common sense she learned in school in the UK, but she never thought that it would really be useful.

With the distant sound of "the army is coming", the human wall was slightly loosened, and it didn't take long for the soldiers in military uniforms to form a big circle around Lin Wanjing and the little girl, separating them from the crowd of onlookers, and a young man wearing a navy blue officer's uniform walked out of the soldiers.

"Overseer...... Overseer, I was wrong, I shouldn't have let Miss play alone by the river, punish me, you can kill me......"

The young man didn't look at him, his eyes were coldly fixed on Lin Wanjing's every movement-she was so focused, sweat wet the broken hair on her forehead, and slid down her handsome face. Lin Wanjing didn't notice that gaze at all, she was engrossed in the artificial respiration in her hand, she didn't know how many times she had repeated this action, her wrists were sore, and even her lips were cold.

But this time, the girl had a reaction, but she saw a sudden tremble, her purple lips opened slightly, gushing out a large amount of dirty water, her long eyelashes fanned a few times, her eyes opened, and after a few glances at the people around her in a trance, she cried loudly.

The young Overseer strode over to the little girl and squatted down, stretched out his hand and took the girl into his arms, without saying a word of thanks, he stood up and turned to go, his resolute steps were two steps but he froze, and said to his attendants:

"Take that girl away."

The entourage answered, but he turned around as if he remembered something, looked at the wet Li Chengtai and asked:

"You just jumped into the water to save my daughter, right? Come with that girl. ”

Li Chengtai shuddered, and just opened his mouth to persuade Lin Wanjing to refuse, but saw that Lin Wanjing had already stood up and followed, he couldn't, so he had to quickly keep up with Lin Wanjing's pace.

Lin Wanjing, the man in front of him who is called the "Overseer", may not know him, but he knows - this person is the supreme commander of Beiyang's troops in Ganzhou, Xu Chuanxi, the overseer of the three provinces.

Yu County, Ganzhou is the hardest hit area of the flash floods, a large number of victims and stranded tourists have caused too much pressure on this small county, and for a time the accommodation, transportation and even communications are all paralyzed

In the quiet old residential area, there is a great pride hidden in the city.

After explaining to his subordinates to settle Lin Wanjing's master and servant, Xu Chuanyu glanced at the documents he had just sent, and took people out of the house again, and this time he went for another day. The clock rang a few times, and it was dinner time in the blink of an eye. Lin Wanjing woke up from her sleep, her elbows were sore, she just wanted to lean on the armrest to take a nap, but she slept groggily all afternoon. Seeing that Li Chengtai was still standing next to the sofa, as she was in the same posture before she went to sleep, I think she stood like this for a whole afternoon. At this moment, the master and servant were in the Gan army, but she was sleeping soundly "without heart and lungs", thinking of this, Lin Wanjing couldn't help but feel a little guilty, and hurriedly sat up. Seeing that she was awake, Li Chengtai stepped forward:

"Did you sleep well?"

Lin Wanjing was embarrassed: "Why did I sleep for so long, I really shouldn't ......"

Li Chengtai didn't notice anything wrong, and said with a smile: "I'll go and pour you some water." ”

Watching him leave, Lin Wanjing got up and tidied up her slightly messy clothes a little, weighing in her heart whether to leave first, or wait for Xu Chuanhui to come back and say hello before leaving-it is inappropriate to leave Xu first, but I don't know when Xu Chuanhui will come back, so it is not a way to wait.

I just wanted to find someone to ask about the situation, but I saw an old woman coming out of the side room with a broom, so she opened her mouth and called her:

"Mother-in-law, I'm sorry, can I delay you for a while?"

But the old woman turned a deaf ear, Lin Wanjing called a few times, but saw the old woman carrying a broom out of the door, I couldn't help but feel depressed, Li Chengtai happened to come in, saw her look unhappy, didn't have time to ask, then listened to her:

"Are the Overseers so dismissive?"

Li Chengtai was stunned for a moment, and quickly went through the people he had just seen in his mind, and laughed: "If you said that the old woman who went out just now, then you are wrong to blame her." He handed the water cup to Lin Wanjing, looked at her confused expression, pointed to his ear, and waved his hand.

Lin Wanjing thought for a moment, and suddenly understood: "You mean...... Is she deaf? ”

"Hmm." Li Chengtai nodded: "Moreover, he can't speak." Su asked Xu Chuanyu to be suspicious by nature, and wanted to stay by her side, firstly, to pity her, and secondly...... Only such a person can be well protected. ”

Lin Wanjing took a sip of warm water in the cup, rubbed the wall of the cup, felt a little guilty in her heart, changed the topic, and asked:

"You say...... Our identity, does he believe it? ”

"I checked the surrounding environment just now, he didn't leave any soldiers to guard here, and the servants were polite to me, so I believed it." Li Chengtai lowered his voice, "But we still have to be careful and not take it lightly." ”

Lin Wanjing nodded: "In this way, let's leave as soon as possible." If it's really what you said, we won't get any useful information here for Yun Rou. ”

"That's what I thought too." Li Chengtai agreed, "Instead of waiting for him to come back, it's better to find an excuse to go first, otherwise when he comes back, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to get out." ”

Since it was decided, Lin Wanjing put down the water cup on the table, got up and went out with Li Chengtai, but before she could step out of the threshold, she saw that the courtyard door opened, and several men in soldier uniforms put the boxes in their hands on the ground, which were the luggage that Lin Wanjing's master and servant stored in the inn.

Before Lin Wanjing could ask, the leading attendant had already spoken: "The Overseer said that the inn has complicated personnel, and you two are the saviors of the young lady, and it is not in the right way to live in that kind of place. I'll take the luggage of the two of you, and you two will take a look at it, and if anything is missing, I'll take someone to ask for it. ”

Although the waiter's words were polite, Li Chengtai still felt that this was Xu Chuanhui's house arrest method in disguise, and he was about to speak out, but was stopped by Lin Wanjing:

"Since Xu Dujun is so polite, then the two of us will be as good as the lord. When will your Overseers return? I happen to need help with something. ”

The waiter replied that Xu Chuanhui had sent someone to the hotel to book a banquet and send it to the house, and he would definitely come back at dinner time. After a few more polite sentences, the waiter took the people away.

As soon as the door of the small courtyard was closed, Li Chengtai hurriedly said: "I'll go to the back door to have a look, if there is no guard, let's go from there." ”

"Forget it." Lin Wanjing said indifferently: "If you come, you will be safe." Not to mention whether our identities have been exposed, even if they are, where can we escape? It's better to finish this scene, maybe we can find Yiguang with his hand, if he really believes us, it will be an opportunity to find out some news about the Gan army for Yunrou. ”

The two had just finished counting their belongings in the house when they heard the sound of dishes breaking in the neighbouring room, which was the Overseer's daughter's boudoir.

In retrospect, the girl was carried into the room by Xu Chuanyu in the afternoon, and there was no sound all afternoon, and there was a messy sound at this time, Lin Wanjing couldn't help but be a little worried, and just walked to the door, the door opened. The maids in the door obviously didn't expect people standing outside the door, and they were all stunned.

Lin Wanjing woke up first:

"I ...... Can I go in and see her? ”

Before the maid could answer, an urging voice came from the door: "What are you doing standing?" Go and call the dumb woman to clean up! ”

The maid by the door was a little at a loss, looked Lin Wanjing up and down, turned around and said, "Sister Kite, the girl who saved the young lady said that she wanted to go in and have a look." ”

"Since it's a guest who saved the young lady, naturally you can't turn it away, and you won't let people in." The maid in the house answered.

The door opened, Lin Wanjing entered the room, but saw the little girl sitting alone on the huge bed, her little face stubbornly ignored her, her little palm holding the quilt, and the flat printed quilt sheet was tightly folded by her.

"You...... Is it better? ”

Lin Wanjing's inquiry did not respond in exchange, the girl still ignored her with a face, and her palms were clenched tighter, seeing her like this, Lin Wanjing couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, and the maid Kite next to the bed obviously saw it, and reminded the girl in a somewhat sorry whisper: "Miss, it was this girl who saved you at noon, you have to express your gratitude for anything." ”

Her words seemed to move the girl slightly, I saw her slowly turn her head, her eyes finally fell on Lin Wanjing after a short period of lag, the clear gaze swept over her, and suddenly froze on her chest, the gaze stared straight for half a minute, and tears slowly appeared in her eyes, Lin Wanjing couldn't help but be a little surprised, in this surprise, the girl stretched out her hands to her, this action Lin Wanjing is very familiar, Xiao Yichen asked her to hug her is this action. Lin Wanjing involuntarily took a few steps forward, and as soon as she reached the bedside, the girl lifted the quilt and pounced on her, plunged into her arms and cried loudly.

Kite obviously didn't expect the plot to unfold like this, and said in a panic: "Miss, Miss, you are too rude to the guests like this!" ”

"It's okay." Lin Wanjing shook her head, raised her hand and gently stroked the girl's hair, "I want to ...... Your young lady was just scared, after all, it happened suddenly, maybe she remembered something that scared her before. ”

The girl cried for a while, her voice gradually became quieter, turned into sobbing and choking, in the hazy eyes of tears, she saw clearly the person holding her in front of her, and her round little face instantly turned red, but she did not break away as Lin Wanjing imagined, but grasped the things in her hands more tightly, and what was in her hands was the mutton fat jade buckle hanging on Lin Wanjing's chest - the mutton fat jade buckle was white and round, although it was valuable, it was not a particularly rare object, just because of the addition of a rouge tassel, it looked chic. Lin Wanjing smiled, raised her hand to untie the pendant, the rope buckle was loosened, and the jade buckle slid into the girl's hand. The girl covered the jade buckle on her chest like a treasure, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a sweet smile.

"Miss, you can't do this! Quickly return the pendant to the family. ”

"It doesn't matter, if she likes to give it to her, it's not a valuable object anyway." Lin Wanjing sat down on the edge of the bed and raised her hand to caress the girl's soft shoulder-length hair.

Xu Chuanhui came back a little later than the adjutant had predicted, and after explaining the next day's arrangements to his subordinates in the courtyard, he led the servants alone to the main hall carrying food boxes. Entering the main hall, the servants hurriedly drove around the dining table, Xu Chuanyu walked to the door of his daughter's room, when his eyes touched the daughter who was nestled in Lin Wanjing's arms, the cold and resolute gaze was gentle and faint, and after a long time, he raised his hand and knocked lightly on the door twice.

The kite reacted very quickly, and hurriedly stepped forward to take the girl's little hand: "Miss, it's time for the guests to eat." ”

Unexpectedly, the girl was holding the mutton fat white jade pendant with one hand, but the other hand suddenly grabbed Lin Wanjing's skirt, grasping it so tightly that she seemed to be afraid of her leaving.

"Is Ying Xuan hungry too?" Lin Wanjing squatted down, asked her with a smile, and then stretched out her hand, "Then let's go to dinner together, okay?" ”

The girl's eyes blinked, and finally put her little hand in Lin Wanjing's hand, and pulled Lin Wanjing to the dining table.

"It's okay, you can go eat too."

Lin Wanjing's fake identity: Li Yanru, Xu Chuanyu must have found out, there was no inquiry during the banquet, and occasionally some questions related to her identity were mostly expected by Lin Wanjing and Li Chengtai, and they were rehearsed many times, and naturally they answered fluently. As for her request to help Gu Yiguang, Xu Chuanyu also agreed, and by the way, she also agreed to Lin Wanjing's request to communicate with Luzhou's family.

The meal was withdrawn, the fruit plate and tea cup were replaced, Xu Yingxuan leaned on Lin Wanjing and ate most of it, the night became thicker, and the sleepiness slowly invaded the little girl's whole body. Hou on the side of the kite saw it, and consciously stepped forward and said:

"Miss is sleepy, isn't she? Let's go back to the house and sleep, don't disturb the guests. ”

The little girl raised her hand and rubbed her eyes, took Lin Wanjing's hand and stood up, and dragged her to the room, Kite wanted to stop her, but was stopped by Xu Chuanxi:

"It's okay, you find someone to change Miss Li into this room," he stretched out his hand and nodded to the room next to Xu Yingxuan's boudoir, "The room opposite is also open for the gentleman who is traveling with her." ”

Accompanied Xu Yingxuan to sleep, the night was already deep, Lin Wanjing covered her with a quilt, turned off the lights, and tiptoed out the door. The lights in the hall had been extinguished, leaving only a few dim night lights. Closing the door and turning around, Lin Wanjing suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure sitting on the sofa, which frightened a spirit, but saw the figure stand up and walk towards her slowly, only to see that it was Xu Chuanyu when she got closer.

"The Overseers aren't sleeping so late?"

Her question was not answered by Xu Chuanxi, but she heard him ask rhetorically: "How much is that pendant, I'll give it to you." ”

What he asked must be the white jade buckle that Xu Yingxuan was holding in his hand.

"Uchiko left her a similar pendant before she died, and she always carried it close to her, presumably when she fell into the water at noon. You make an offer. ”

Lin Wanjing: "If she likes it, give her it, if the overseer is not at ease, the right is for my master and servant to borrow the expenses of living in your mansion." ”

Xu Chuanyu sighed lightly: "Okay, Miss Li will live here with peace of mind, and Xu will do her best to find your sister-in-law." ”

After a few more polite words, the two said goodnight and went to the room, and they didn't say anything all night.
