Chapter 289: Temptation
But Lin Zhinian was still a little worried, "Shopkeeper Lin, can you hold on?" ”
Of course, she couldn't hold on, Lin Jinxiu felt that she was exhausted now, and even standing here seemed to have exhausted all her strength, but for the sake of justice, she had to hold on.
"Lin Zhinian, you have to hide."
Lin Jinxiu couldn't help but ask, if Lin Zhinian was found here, not to mention what he was doing here, he would be a lonely man and a widow, and he couldn't tell if he had ten mouths.
As if knowing Lin Jinxiu's worries, Lin Zhinian nodded solemnly and entered the backyard.
Lin Jinxiu took a deep breath, picked up the rouge from the stage to cover her pale face, smiled at herself in the bronze mirror, and when she couldn't see anything unusual, she sat quietly in front of the counter.
If your guess is right, this person will definitely be coming soon.
No matter who it is, you have to be mentally ready to deal with it.
Lin Jinxiu closed her eyes, and when she opened her eyes again, it was already clear in front of her, but at this moment, there was a random banging sound at the door.
"Open the door, open the door quickly......" Lin Jinxiu raised her eyebrows, a sneer crossed the corner of her mouth, it was really fast, just as she was about to walk to the door, she heard a familiar voice, coming from far and near.
"You bastard, are you a pig's brain, won't you knock on the door properly?" It was Zhou Zhi that Lin Jinxiu's eyes narrowed into a slit, how could it be him?
Could it be that he and Yuan Jie are actually in the same group?
Lin Jinxiu took a deep breath and opened the door, without the slightest expression on his face, "Lord Zhou is really diligent and loves the people, and coming to observe the people's feelings so early is really terrifying for the people's women." ”
Zhou Zhi looked at Lin Jinxiu's not very good-looking face, and the smile on his face was also a little helpless, thinking that he wanted to go out so early, and he hated to sleep a little longer with the quilt, but he didn't expect that an order suddenly came from above, and he actually wanted to come to check if Tang Jiu was in the store.
Zhou Zhi's first reaction was, could it be that Tang Jiu had committed something?
But after thinking about it, it shouldn't be, after all, Tang Jiu's status in the Tiger Wolf Barracks is not low, and I heard that the emperor is also a little afraid of the Tiger Wolf Barracks, so maybe he just let himself see if Tang Jiu is in the store?
In fact, there is another thing that Zhou Zhi really can't understand, why the people above are so interested in Tang Jiu, last time someone came to ask himself about Tang Jiu's whereabouts recently, it was really inexplicable, if the emperor really had a different mind about the tiger and wolf military camp, then he should also guard against Shen Kuo, right?
I don't understand, Zhou Zhi felt that he really couldn't figure it out, but he didn't plan to think about it, after all, he was just acting on orders, but looking at Lin Jinxiu's ugly face, Zhou Zhi's face showed a flattering smile, "Miss Lin, I'm really sorry, this official just came to see Vice General Tang, come here, bring things up......"
At the same time as the words fell, two officers and soldiers walked in with a snort, as if carrying a basket of unknown things.
When she got closer, Lin Jinxiu frowned slightly, "Lord Zhou, who are you?" ”
What did you do with so many eggs for yourself?
"Ouch, I heard that Vice General Tang has been very tired recently, so the official came to condole, and he couldn't come empty-handed, so he bought some fresh eggs to come to ......" said, Zhou Zhi sighed helplessly, the above just said that he would come to investigate, and he couldn't make a noise, Zhou Zhi thought about it, so he could only come up with such a way, you must know that these eggs cost him two taels of silver, thinking of this, Zhou Zhi felt a little distressed.
Lin Jinxiu naturally knew what Zhou Zhi meant, and the expression on his face remained unchanged, but the corners of his mouth were hooked up with a touch of coldness, "Thank you Lord Zhou for your kindness, but Xianggong is not in the store." ”
In a word, Zhou Zhi's heart sank, but there was still a smile on his face, "Miss Lin is really good at joking......"
If you don't know here, where can you go?
Lin Jinxiu smiled, "Lord Zhou, I'm not joking, Xianggong is really not here, I went back to Tangjia Village yesterday afternoon, I don't believe you ask the neighbors, they all watched Xianggong leave......"
"This ......"
At this moment, Tang Wan'er and Zhou Junhu walked in, and when they saw so many people in the room, they were stunned for a moment, and then understood something.
"Alas, wait." Zhou Zhi stopped Tang Wan'er, looked her up and down, and then slowly spoke, "Where did Vice General Tang go?" ”
Tang Wan'er naturally didn't know what was going on, but when she saw Zhou Zhi's suspicious eyes, she knew that it must not be a good thing, and she spoke almost instantly, "Tang Jiu has returned to his hometown, Lord Zhou, it's really a misfortune that you came to find someone today." ”
Hearing Tang Wan'er's words, Lin Jinxiu's clenched hand slowly loosened, "What's the matter, Lord Zhou is still afraid that I won't be able to deceive you, I have already said it, Xianggong has already returned to Tangjia Village yesterday afternoon, if you don't believe it, you can send someone to find ......"
"Miss Lin, where are you talking about, how can I not believe you." Zhou Zhi poked his head inside, with a little regret in his tone, "It seems that this official can't see Vice General Tang today, so he can only come back tomorrow." ”
After saying this, Lin Jinxiu bent down, and before Zhou Zhi could regret it, he had already spoken, "That week, Lord Zhou, go slowly, don't send it." ”
I originally wanted to say something: "......"
"It's easy to say, Miss Lin doesn't need to send it." Zhou Zhi waved his hand, and then with a wave of his hand, he took all the officers and soldiers back, and of course, those eggs were also brought back.
Anyway, I can explain to the above anyway, as long as that's the case, it's fine.
After everyone's backs disappeared, Lin Jinxiu only felt that her legs were weak, but fortunately, Tang Wan'er quickly held it up, "Jinxiu, are you okay?" ”
Hearing Tang Wan'er's worried voice, Lin Jinxiu shook her head with a smile, "I'm fine, I'm just a little tired, I'll be fine after a while." ”
Because of the proximity, Tang Wan'er could naturally see that Lin Jinxiu's face was very pale, she hurriedly poured a cup of tea, and couldn't help but ask, "Jinxiu, what's going on?" ”
How could so many officers and soldiers come early in the morning? There is also the question that Zhou Zhi asked just now, obviously he was testing himself, if he didn't know that Tang Jiu was either in the store or in his hometown, if there was another place to go, he would have to stab Lou Zi, as soon as he thought of this, Tang Wan'er was a little frightened.
Suddenly thinking of something, Tang Wan'er's eyes widened, "Jinxiu, what about Tang Jiu." ”
Zhou Junhu naturally realized that something was wrong, and there was a lot of commotion on the streets last night, could it be related to Tang Jiu?
