Chapter Eighty-Six: I've Got It
When Song Xiaochi said this, Xie Yan raised his eyebrows slightly, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, but he seemed to react to what expression he had made, and in an instant, the corners of his slightly upturned mouth were retracted again, and his face became expressionless.
"Huh, silly boy!" This low voice is a complaint from Xuanniao.
Xie Yan quietly reached out again and pushed back the Xuanniao with his head exposed.
"You stinky boy!" Xuanniao's kind attitude towards his own juniors suddenly disappeared, and he returned to his true nature.
Xie Yan thinks that "stinky boy" is more pleasing to the ear than "stupid boy".
Song Xiaochi's words made Liu Mingxin glance at Xie Yan again.
Pure character? Trustworthy?
Well, since it was said by a friend, she will believe it.
"From which gate do you go?" Liu Mingxin asked.
Song Xiaochi knows Liu Mingxin's character, she has never liked to talk much, let alone meddle in things, she can ask her so directly, it means that she cares and worries about her.
Song Xiaochi looked at Xie Yan, she didn't know which gate Xie Yan was going to go out from.
If Xie Yan didn't want to say it, or felt that he couldn't say it, Song Xiaochi wouldn't be reluctant, she couldn't force Xie Yan to believe her friend, not to mention that the reason why Xie Yan concealed it was also for her safety.
Without waiting for Xie Yan to say which city gate or to refuse, Liu Mingxin had already reacted that his problem might cause trouble to his friends.
She explained: "Tan Shizhen is east of the closed city, you must not go out from the east gate, go out from there, and then go two hours forward, it is the boundary of Tan Shizhen, if you go out of the city from there, then there will be a sheep into the tiger's mouth."
"Naturally, you can't go through the East City Gate." Originally, Song Xiaochi thought that Xie Yan would not answer, but he didn't expect him to respond to Liu Mingxin.
Song Xiaochi looked at Xie Yan, and she felt that this person definitely didn't answer for no reason.
Sure enough, I heard Xie Yan say: "Since Miss Liu has analyzed the plan and possibility of going out of the city, I don't know if Miss Liu has any good suggestions."
Liu Mingxin glanced at Xie Yan, then turned his head to look at Song Xiaochi, he really wanted to confirm with Song Xiaochi, is this person really pure and trustworthy?
But she didn't ask what she said, first, whether it was the Song family, or she and Yunqi, there was no way to find a reliable person to take Song Xiaochi to escape from the lockdown and live a stable life in another country.
Because this person can't be a woman, there is no difference in safety between two women and three women on the road together, and the male servant, a person with outstanding ability and trustworthiness, Liu Mingxin has no choice.
Even if he feels that he has a good character now, once he is on the road and has been with the two girls' families for a long time, whether he will be interested in lust and whether he will seek money and kill him, these are all things that Liu Mingxin does not dare to guarantee.
And since Song Xiaochi trusted the person in front of her, maybe her words were just to comfort Uncle Song, Aunt Song, and Brother Song, but this person at least saved Song Xiaochi's master and servant in the same situation as last night, which should be more reliable than finding someone else.
"Go through the South Gate." Liu Mingxin said.
"The city gate guards are under the jurisdiction of the same governor, although Lord Xu and the prefect are not of the same mind, it stands to reason that he can completely ignore the prefect's interception order just for personal gain."
What Liu Mingxin said, Song Xiaochi had already thought of it, and had already told Xie Yan about the causes and consequences of her marriage contract with the Xu family, and also took the opportunity to tell him what she knew about the Tan family.
And this is also the case when Xuanniao went to the four city gates to investigate, the city gates were not heavily guarded, and most of the guards focused on the people who entered the city, and charged a certain amount of money to enter the city.
As for those who go out of the city, they just sweep it at will, and as for those who go out by car, although they will also open the curtain to take a look, but they only glance at it at random, as for those who are familiar with the carriages of the powerful and rich families who go out of the city, as long as they see the marks on the carriage, they will be allowed to go directly.
"But the Xu family and the Song family had such a period after all...... Although this matter is actually due to the Xu family, but Mrs. Xu is quite abnormal, although your family finally withdrew from the family as they wished, but it is unknown whether the Xu family will cooperate with the prefect in this matter for the sake of their own heart. ”
"Ming Xin, is there an acquaintance on duty at the South City Gate?"
Song Xiaochi asked.
Liu Mingxin gave her an appreciative look, "It's not me, it's Yun Qi, Lord Qin, the captain of the South City Gate, is Lord Yun's person, in fact, the city gate guards should have belonged to the jurisdiction of the guard, but since the death of the first emperor and the new emperor's accession to the throne, the city gate guards have been assigned to the jurisdiction of the government office, but those soldiers who guard are still selected from the self-defense center."
The captain of the guard at the south gate was originally a small guy next to Lord Yun, because of his good martial arts, Lord Yun let him get rid of his slave status and sent him to the guard to be a soldier, a few years have passed, it may be that his own ability is good, or it may be that he went to the peak to see the face of Lord Yun, and promoted him to be a nine-grade captain, and he was just assigned to the south city gate in the second half of this year.
I only found out about this some time ago, when I went to Daming Temple with Yunqi to offer incense. ”
"Do you still want to tell Ah Qi?" Song Xiaochi frowned, it wasn't that she didn't believe Yun Qi, but she didn't want to trouble her, of course, Yun Qi's leaky mouth was also one of the reasons why she didn't agree.
"When it comes to the safety of your life, Ah Qi can still keep his mouth shut."
Liu Mingxin said, "Even if she said that she leaked her mouth, it would be a long time later, at that time you had already left the lockdown, and, before, she said that on the day of your marriage, she would send a lotus root over to give you a gift, but early this morning, we learned the news that you escaped, I thought you might come to Renxintang to find me, so I came here early in the morning, I didn't expect to wait for you, but waited for the silver ticket, but now the result is not bad."
If Ah Qi knew that you saw me, but didn't see her, she would definitely be angry with you for the rest of her life. ”
Liu Mingxin rarely said so many words, and added so many explanations, which made Song Xiaochi feel that something was wrong while being surprised.
Liu Mingxin took Song Xiaochi's hand and said, "Xiaochi, we are lifelong friends, trust each other, and will not betray, this is my promise."
Song Xiaochi looked at Liu Mingxin's eyes, which were extremely serious and sincere eyes.
"Well, trust each other and will not betray."
Song Xiaochi looked at Xie Yan, Xie Yan nodded indifferently, "Then go to the South City Gate." ”
Xie Yan took Song Xiaochi back to the inn, and said that he would meet Yun Qi in an alley that he had to pass to go to the South City Gate before closing the city gate, but when Xie Yan arrived with the mule cart, he did see an ordinary carriage parked in that alley, and it was the lotus root sitting on the carriage, but there was no Yun Qi in the car.
"Miss Song, no, it's time to call the girl, girl, my girl has given you the slave."
