Ji Junyang took a sip of tea calmly, with a suspicious fox on his face: "What, Xiao Qi, you also have a marriage contract?" ”

Lin Qi immediately pursed his lips: "Do you have to have a marriage contract to send it?" How many years will it take! Brother Junyang, you prepare a generous gift for my second sister every time, and deal with me perfunctorily, this time it's good, but you didn't prepare anything......"

"Alright!" Lin Ruo hurriedly came out to make a round, "Brother Junyang has been in the dust all the way, you let him eat something first." Besides, when have I ever refused something you wanted? Last time, a complete set of ninety-eight kinds of Luban locks made of yellow sandalwood and nine consecutive links of Ugin are still there! ”

Lin Qi thought about it, it seemed that it was, but he still quibbled confidently: "It's not that I haven't solved it all!" ”

Ji Junyang kept a faint smile on his face, looking at the two sisters and brothers laughing: "Of course there will be no shortage of your gifts, but this time it will be in time, and it will be delivered to the house in a few days." ”

Lin Qi immediately smiled and hugged Ji Junyang's arm: "I know that Brother Junyang loves me the most!" ”

"Well," Lin Ruoqing coughed, and a faint voice came from the side, "What about me?" ”

Lin Qi hurriedly hugged Lin Ruo's arm again: "Second sister also loves me the most!" ”

Lin Ruo smiled and gently poked Lin Qi's forehead with his fingertips: "You! ”

was frolicking, there was a muffled sound of "boom" outside the window, followed by a noisy noise, the three people in the guest room looked out through the window lattice, the empty street in the early morning, there were many people coming and going at this moment, and one of the men dressed as soldiers staggered and lay on the ground, choking a mouthful of blood in his throat, and next to him lay a scarred brown horse, foaming at the mouth, it was already the appearance of running out of oil and lamp.

The officers and soldiers in charge of guarding the northern gate vigilantly surrounded him and isolated him from the people. The city guards were surrounded and stepped forward, intending to inquire about the situation.

"It's a post soldier, eight hundred miles of urgent documents." Ji Junyang said affirmatively, and at a glance he caught a glimpse of the words "flying" on the beige cloth bag that the post soldier straddled diagonally.

Lin Ruo thought for a while, and subconsciously called out "Ah Shu", and a ghost-like figure appeared in front of her, it was Leng Shu, who was secretly protecting her today. His treacherous figure was so fast that even Ji Junyang was taken aback. Lin Ruo took out a jade plaque from his sleeve and threw it to him, Leng Shu took it, immediately jumped out of the window, and showed the jade plaque to everyone in the surprised eyes of the city defenders, and the city guards hurriedly led the soldiers to kneel down and salute.

"Brother Junyang, you take a break here, and I'll come when I go. Xiao Qi, you also stay here. ”

"Okay."

Before Lin Qi protested, Ji Junyang readily responded.

Lin Ruo took the light gauze and put it on the fence, helped Youcao's men downstairs, walked out of the store, and came to everyone, and the city guard led everyone and shouted: "See the county lord." ”

"No courtesy."

Seeing Lin Ruo appear, Leng Shu handed the jade card back into her hand and retreated behind her. Lin Ruo asked people to carefully pick up the post soldier, carry him to the store, pale face, dry lips, and said decisively: "Go and ask the store to get a bowl of water." ”

After a short time, Ah Xuan brought out a bowl of water and handed it to one of the city guards. At this time, Lin Ruo had an extra porcelain bottle in his hand, carefully poured out a medicine, handed it to the city guard, and ordered, "Feed him to eat." ”

At first, the soldier was weak and struggled to even drink water, but after swallowing the pill with difficulty, he slowly regained some strength and drank it in a big gulp.

"What's going on?"

The post soldier was not completely conscious, but he was still wary of Lin Ruo, and the city guard hurriedly explained: "This is the county lord of Minhui. ”

The boiling grievances between the Lin family and the Gu family have long spread throughout every inch of Donglu, so the post soldiers naturally know the name of the county lord of Minhui, and know that she can directly enter the palace to face the saint, and the trembling hand reached out to the beige cloth bag on the side of the waist, took out the secret box containing the urgent secret report and the seal, and handed it to Lin Ruo's direction tremblingly.

Youcao stepped forward and took it and handed it to Lin Ruo.

The postman gasped and said intermittently, "County Lord...... Bother...... Give it to the emperor, Shangyu...... Prince...... Assassinate ......" Before he could finish speaking, the postman fainted.

A light flashed in Lin Ruo's mind, and she finally thought of what the clue that couldn't be grasped just now was: He Ru, the prefect of Shangyu, was the protégé of Shen Di, the head of the household department; And Shen Di is the father of Shen Wanyi, the crown prince's concubine.

What was said in the urgent secret report should be the matter of the Shangyu flood, and as for the riots of the displaced people, it should not have reached Bian'an so quickly. So, the assassination......

Lin Ruo's gaze looked at the wounds on the post soldier and the brown horse outside the door behind the black veil.

Does the prince know about this?

"County Lord, do you want to inform Jingzhao Yamen?"

When the defender saw the post soldier fainting, he couldn't make up his mind for a while. Although the post soldier did not match the preface and the afterword, and also mentioned the prince, even if he couldn't figure out the reason, the city guard also knew that this matter was important.

This is not the first time this has happened, usually they send the post soldiers and the urgent secret report to the Jingzhao Yamen, and the Lord Ying of the Jingzhao Mansion will bring the secret box into the palace to play the saint. But if someone more noble than the position of Jingzhao Mansion Yin intervenes in this matter, they will also sell their personal favors. Although Lin Ruo is not a court official, she is indeed a celebrity in front of Emperor Mingzong!

"When you enter the palace, you have to hand over the sign, and this back and forth tossing may be delayed. However, after all, Jingzhao Mansion is under the jurisdiction of Lord Ying, so you still send someone to inform you. As for the secret box, Ah Shu, you take this to the Jingping Marquis Mansion to find Su Shizi, ask him to go to the Rongwang Mansion, and ask the Rong Wangye to send this to the palace. ”

When the secret box was handed over to Leng Shu, Leng Shu hesitated for a moment.

Lin Ruo approached him and comforted: "If you are not at ease, just go and return quickly." There's still Brother Junyang here, so it's okay. ”

Leng Shu gave up his hand and answered "yes".

But Lin Ruo motioned for him to come over and whispered a few words softly before letting him leave.

Looking at Leng Shu's fleeting figure, the city guard couldn't help but muttered softly: "This time and again, I'm afraid it's more delayed, right?" ”

There are still some words, but he doesn't dare to say them: this Minhui County Lord will be the concubine of King Rong in a short time, and King Rong is the person who is in the same boat as the prince. The post soldier was vague and mentioned "prince" and "assassination", and it is not known whether someone wanted to assassinate the prince or whether he ordered the assassination on his trip. If this involves a confidential expedited secret report, it is untouched...... Thinking of this, the city defender couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.

Lin Ruo naturally heard the hesitation of the city guard, but she didn't explain, but asked him to quickly find a doctor to check the situation for the post soldiers, and asked Youcao to give Ah Yu a gold ingot to apologize.

When a merchant opens to do business, he is most afraid of getting into a lot of trouble. Lin Ruo's ingot of gold was not only a good apology, but also deliberately alienated the relationship with Ah Sui, Ah Fei naturally understood, took the gold with a smile, and said, "Your noble, please", and retreated.

The city guards didn't think much about it anymore, it was just the people above who were fighting back and forth. So he sent his men back to guard the city gate, and he took the two of them to accompany Lin Ruo. Although he knew that the kung fu of himself and his subordinates of the three-legged cat would not play much of a protective role at all, but the county lord was here, if he did not protect it well, it would be a crime of dereliction of duty.
