Looking at Li Lin's puzzled face, Xiao Man smiled embarrassedly again and explained: "There is not much money in the house now, so I want to save a little and try to rent a cheaper place, after all, we don't rely on all-"

"County Lord, or I'll lend you some money? Or, you can go directly to the king and make an advance for the next year. Li Lin proposed.

"No, no, I just want to find a place to put things, I don't have to find a bustling street," Xiao Man pursed his lips and smiled, "The aroma of wine is not afraid of deep alleys, as long as we do it well enough, it doesn't matter whether the store is remote or not." ”

Now that the money in the house is all sent by Holley, she can't owe favors to others anymore.

Seeing that Xiaoman really didn't mean to borrow money from himself, Li Lin was not reluctant, he said: "Then I'll go and see it in the next few days, although I am a local, but I don't know so much about the situation of the shop, the county lord and wait for a few days, and after I find out the situation, I will come to the house to report to you." ”

"Since that's the case, then I'll have a lot of trouble with Master Li."

Sending Li Lin away, Xiao Man and Pearl returned to the study, because Li Lin undertook a more difficult matter, Xiao Man's face looked much better, she hummed a song while sorting out the information on the table, looking very relaxed.

After all, now that the matter of the bandits has progressed, the matter of the store has also been settled. For the rest, all you need to do is let Li Lin interrogate the real culprit behind the scenes, and then take out some of the money to rent a shop, and then hang up the clothes made by the backyard maids to sell.

As for the guests of the clothes, Mrs. Zhang has already been asked to take care of them, if everything is not unexpected, then it only takes the first few months, and then things will be much easier after that.

"Madam, you didn't rest last night, and now that everything has been arranged, you should go and rest first, right?" A pearl proposes aside.

The other party didn't say it, Xiaoman didn't think it yet, but now that she was reminded by Pearl like this, she really felt a little sleepy, and she yawned several times for a while.

Therefore, Xiao Man endured sleepiness and tidied up the things on the table, nodded and said, "It's okay, I'll go to rest later, and you can go back to sleep for a while." ”

The trance was just a blink of an eye, and the entire county lord's mansion knew about the thief's arrest, everyone was happy, and the atmosphere in the mansion was much more relaxed, everyone had a smile on their faces, and the pace of walking was much brisker.

However, in the Prince's Mansion, which is not far from the County Lord's Mansion, the atmosphere in the mansion is not so relaxed.

Since Chu Yu rushed back to the mansion with momentum, the maids and servants up and down the mansion have tightened the string in their hearts, for fear of meeting the prince who is angry, for fear that the other party will vent that belly on themselves.

"Smack-"

The porcelain was shattered and splashed everywhere, and the maid kneeling on the ground trembled like chaff, and in the face of Chu Yu's raging anger, she didn't dare to make a sound.

"Get out! Get out! Let's go, don't bother this king again! Chu Yu shouted angrily and drove all the people in the house out.

A group of maids and servants crawled out in a row, and in the blink of an eye, only the guard who had been following Chu Yu was left in the house.

There was silence in the room, and only the sound of Chu Yu sitting on the couch gasping for breath could be heard, and he stared at the position of the door, as if he was about to shoot a cold arrow in his eyes, which made people shudder.

Even though the guard had followed Chu Yu for many years, he didn't dare to speak at this time, and he didn't even have the courage to look at him.

"Find someone and go to Liquan Mountain to get a letter." Chu Yu said suddenly.

The guards were stunned for a moment, and then they were puzzled: "Lord Wang, at this time, the entire Bei'an City is under martial law, and there are many people who are familiar with Li Lin at the gate of the city, in case Li Lin finds out something, then aren't you——"

"Isn't it?!" Chu Yu suddenly stood up and walked directly in the direction of the guard, he pointed his index finger at the other party's nose and shouted angrily: "Now they have come to this step!" If I don't go to Zhao Shan for help, those spineless things will come out of me sooner or later! ”

If you don't communicate, you will definitely be betrayed, but if you communicate with Zhao Shan, there is still hope for things, and there is a great possibility that it will not affect you.

Which one to choose, Chu Yu knew very well in his heart.

Seeing this, the guard pursed his lips, and after thinking about it again, "Okay, then I'll go find someone to go out of the city to deliver the letter now." ”

"Wait a minute!" Chu Yu stopped the other party, twisted his eyebrows and instructed: "You tell him that if he can go out of the city and find Zhao Shan on Liquan Mountain, he must let him pick up Liquan Mountain and this incident!" It is absolutely impossible to admit that these people who were arrested today are from Liquan Mountain! Got it? ”

Only in this way can Zhao Shan not be affected and continue to help himself, and Li Lin will definitely not find out about his head.

In the face of Chu Yu's orders, even if the guard had doubts in his heart, he would never question half a word, and he immediately agreed: "Yes!" The subordinates are going to find someone to get out of the city! ”

With Chu Yu's instructions, the guards found a reliable little guy, disguised the other party as ordinary people, and instructed them again and again, so that the other party would go out.

However, the guards at this time didn't know that in a wine shop not far from the prince's mansion, there were two pairs of eyes staring at the little guy who had just been sent out of the mansion, and one of them had already rushed downstairs and followed the little guy out of the city.

The other walked quickly to the prison where the thieves were held and told Li Lin about it.

"You mean, there is a person in the prince's mansion who has quietly left the city?" Li Lin lowered his voice and asked with a frown.

For several days before, Chu Yu hadn't contacted the bandits, but at such a critical and tense moment today, Chu Yu couldn't help but make a move.

It seems that catching these bandits today is indeed very important to Chu Yu.

Li Lin immediately got up and said to the jailer guarding the prison: "I have to go out in advance, you take good care of these prisoners, and there must be no accidents!" Don't let unrelated people wait for them to come in, and don't let these thieves have an accident, you know? ”

"Yes! Don't worry! ”

Then, Li Lin looked at the subordinates who came to report the news, and ordered: "You continue to go back to the area around the prince's mansion to inspect, and if there is any unusual movement, you must find someone to notify me in time!" Or go to the palace and inform the king! I must go to the palace now and tell the king what is going on, so that I can arrest them!" ”

The subordinate clenched his fist, "Yes!" ”

After arranging everything, Li Lin thought about it again, and after making sure that his plan was not flawed, he hurriedly left the prison and went to the palace.

If you can catch the current situation between the palace and the bandits this time, then these bandits in the prison will not be so important, after all, the bandits can be exterminated at any time, but the mysterious person who really sits behind the bandits and directs all this is the most important thing in this matter.

Soon, after entering the palace, Li Lin told the king what had happened before, and begged the king to allocate an army to himself, so that he could go up the mountain to arrest people.

Regarding Li Lin's plea, the king naturally readily agreed, but he still had some small concerns: "However, who is watching over there in the palace now?" This shouldn't be this play that Chu Yu deliberately played in order to attract your attention, right? ”

"Don't worry, the king can rest assured, I have two subordinates who have been patrolling around the palace, and now one of them has followed the palace out of the city, and the other I have asked him to go back and continue to watch, if there is any abnormal movement, he will report it in time."

"That's good." Wang Shang nodded, and according to Li Lin's request, he allocated soldiers to him and let him go out of the city to suppress bandits.

Things were going well, but in order not to let Chu Yu notice the abnormality, Li Lin was very careful when he took the soldiers out of the city, for fear of causing any abnormal movements, which would arouse Chu Yu's suspicions.

But fortunately, because a small road was specially copied, coupled with reminders and instructions, until leaving the city, there was nothing unusual in the city, except for the soldiers guarding the door who asked a few more questions, the rest of the people did not notice Li Lin's team.

Out of the city, Li Lin first tightened the reins of his horse, and then turned sideways and ordered his subordinates on the side, "You go to find Lu Li near the greenhouse, and ask him to take someone directly to the foot of Liquan Mountain to wait for us, so that he can help us take down these bandits in one fell swoop." ”

"My lord, so many of us can't exterminate a bandit? In my opinion, this town prince still has his own business to do, and if I call it, he may not—"

"Where are so many mothers-in-law!" Li Lin angrily interrupted: "If you want to go, go quickly, don't complain!" ”

The soldiers around him laughed, and the soldier smacked his lips, then hung his head and scratched his head, and with a shout, turned his horse's head and hurried in the direction of the greenhouse.

Lu Li's place of residence was very close to Liquan Mountain, so when Lu Li led people to the foot of Liquan Mountain according to the soldier's words, Li Lin's team had not yet arrived.

Xiao Qi, who followed Lu Li, found a tree and climbed up, looking at the distance where there was no one at the end of the road, he couldn't help frowning and asked, "Master, did you say that Master Li should have gone up the mountain a long time ago?" Otherwise, why haven't we waited so long and haven't waited for anyone? ”

But as soon as these words came out, before Lu Li could answer, the soldier who came to deliver the message before couldn't hold it back, and he hurriedly defended: "It's not!" Master Li said, let us wait here, even if he arrives first, he will definitely wait for us! ”

"Hey, are you the roundworm in Lord Li's stomach? You know what he thinks? Xiao Qi pouted and complained.

The soldier's face turned red, and he couldn't say a word in a fit of rage.

Seeing this, Lu Li frowned and reprimanded: "Xiao Qi! Hurry down! ”

Hearing this, Xiao Qi reluctantly jumped down from the tree, walked to Lu Li's side, and continued to complain: "Master, didn't you listen to him? Lord Li brought a lot of people here, but he also asked you to bring us all, which shows that Lord Li has no confidence to exterminate the bandits on this mountain! ”

Lu Li frowned and stared into the distance, and said, "So many of us standing here are already suspicious, if you keep making noise, be careful to let those thieves hear." ”
