Chapter 518: Southern Scenery
"I've thought about our fake identities, so I use my own business name to pretend that you and I are my people, but I have the intention of setting up my own door, and I heard that I have lost a batch of goods here, so I want to find someone to cooperate." Lin Huiru clapped his hands, as if applauding his exquisite plan.
Xu Ziqiao was a little hesitant, "But if they are suspicious, they shouldn't be easily trusted when they have a relationship with you." β
"It is also good to say that most of the business in Minzhou is the business of grain, oil and salt, followed by cloth. But there should be a lot of talented people and talented women here, I pretend to be my person, you look white and tender, wouldn't it be good to pretend to be a bookseller. And if you can get in touch with those second-generation sons, maybe you can find out some news. Lin Huiru said again.
"Okay, then I'll listen to you." Xu Ziqiao nodded, listening to the movement downstairs, he stood up again and pushed open the window next to him.
Looking down from here, you can just see that the brocade guard just now was escorting a maid in yellow, thinking that it should be the female dependent who ran out of Huang Bozhong's house, and it is not a small crime to defect to the enemy and treason, and now he has absconded in fear of crime, and in the end, he should be counted as a crime of being assigned to be a slave.
"You say, it's clear that these family members are innocent, why should they be implicated." Lin Huiru leaned against the window and looked down, and suddenly felt some emotion in his heart.
"Because as long as she knows about this matter, it is wrong, if she knows the news and reports it to the court as soon as possible, maybe it will not end like this. After all, although she can't stop Huang Bozhong, as long as she kills her relatives in righteousness, the result will be good for everyone, but these people always want to take risks. Xu Ziqiao sighed softly and lowered the window.
Sure enough, after Jin Yiwei took the people away, the ship sailed south again.
"Actually, she should have had a chance to run, after all, it will take some time for the royal family to get the portraits of the officials' families. If she hadn't been reluctant to give up her expensive jewelry and clothes, maybe she would have been able to sneak away. Xu Ziqiao poured himself a cup of tea and took a sip.
Lin Huiru nodded, "It's true, after all, harboring and committing accomplices are guilty of the same crime." And this escape is still wearing brocade clothes and hiding in the crowd, not the first time to find out who she found. β
However, Huang Bozhong's crime this time was confirmed. In fact, there are also some innocent officials who have been slandered but cannot be cleared of the charge, you say, if one day I am framed, what will you do? Xu Ziqiao put down the teacup and looked at Xu Ziqiao with relish.
"Take you with me, run to a place that no one knows, and then live in seclusion in the mountains and forests for the rest of your life." Lin Huiru shrugged his shoulders, and the answers he gave were a little mediocre.
"But I'm special, what if I'm heavily guarded?" Xu Ziqiao continued to ask.
Lin Huiru thought for a moment and groaned, "Hmm...... Money can make the devil grind, do you know why I am making so much money? It's to save their lives when their lives are hanging by a thread, some people want money and don't want to die, we have money to at least keep ourselves, as long as we have enough entanglement and some money, we will definitely be able to run out. β
"How can you be so sure?" Xu Ziqiao had a little smile on his face, and only felt that Lin Huiru's idea was a little naΓ―ve.
Hearing him ask, Lin Huiru couldn't help but roll his eyes, "Lord Xu, you have never had a career of escaping, but I have already run a few times, and I have all run out of experience." Sure enough, I still have nothing to do when I'm full, and I can make you think about it. β
"I have made you suffer, but I must also take the risk to take this right, so that if something happens to you, I can risk the condemnation of the world, but no one can refuse to come to you." Xu Ziqiao stretched out his hand and gently rubbed Lin Huiru's forehead.
This reply made Lin Huiru a little unexpected, and while he was ignorant, he was moved to expand in his heart, "Then I will rest assured, when you can share power with Your Majesty one day, I am afraid that no one will dare to say anything if I go to burn down the palace." β
"Shh Xu Ziqiao stretched out his hand and pointed to the next door, this kind of talk is afraid that the wall has ears, and if it is listened to by someone with a heart, it will be troublesome.
Lin Huiru nodded and immediately understood, but at the same time, there was a trace of jealousy in his heart. After all, now that one of them has money and one power, if the emperor is suspicious, he will definitely divide a lot of forces to suppress them, so if they want to strengthen themselves even more, they have to do big things in a muffled voice like now.
Just as Xu Ziqiao worried, the two of them suffered from seasickness at the same time, Lin Huiru had already vomited in a drowsy, and now even if she looked at the delicacies in front of her, she was black in front of her eyes and had no appetite at all, and even wanted to vomit.
Although Xu Ziqiao was also uncomfortable, he seemed much more indifferent, just frowning and closing his eyes there.
In a daze, Lin Huiru remembered that she had been prepared, and hurriedly took out a bag from her arms, in which a few small pills were lying quietly, which she had exchanged for seasickness medicine in advance.
"I forgot that I also prepared medicine, let's take it quickly, otherwise I will walk down the waterway in the past few days, and it is estimated that when I get to Minzhou, I will take off my human appearance." Lin Huiru handed over the medicine, poured two more glasses of water, and after eating it himself, he lay down and continued to pretend to be dead and wait for the medicine to take effect.
I have to say that the four words of preparedness are really true, and soon after eating, Lin Huiru re-experienced a refreshing feeling, she let out a sigh of relief, took another sip of tea and rinsed her mouth, "Fortunately, you reminded me to prepare, otherwise I don't know how to die along the way." β
Xu Ziqiao didn't speak, just sat there pinching the quilt, his expression seemed to be stiff.
Lin Huiru glanced at him cautiously, thinking that the medicine had not yet taken effect and he was uncomfortable, so he didn't speak again. Now as soon as her body is comfortable, her stomach is hungry, she picked up the apple sent by Xiao Er and was about to put it in her mouth, when there was a sudden whirlwind in front of her.
"Be careful!" Xu Ziqiao exclaimed, and immediately resolutely took off and rolled on the ground with her. A slender silver needle passed through the place where Lin Huiru was just now, and nailed it deeply to the wooden board of the window frame.
And the people outside also noticed that they had lost their hands, and disappeared in a blink of an eye. After thinking about it again and again, Xu Ziqiao still gave up chasing people, and came back to help Lin Huiru up, "It's okay, are you hurt?"
"I'm fine, but you, I just heard a sound, did you hit somewhere?" Lin Huiru shook his head, then became nervous, took Xu Ziqiao's hand and looked up and down, and began to pick up his clothes when he couldn't see it.
Xu Ziqiao stretched out his hand to stop her, and helplessly pulled off his sleeve to show her the bruise, "I just accidentally hit the stool, a small injury will be fine in a few days, and it will be fine if it doesn't hurt you." β
