Chapter 189: Night Attack

However, under Zhao Xuemei's gaze, Xu Sanchun slowly shook his head. She smiled apologetically and said, "I'm really sorry, I can't promise you." ”

"What?!" Zhao Xuemei couldn't believe her ears, "What did you say?" ”

"I'm sorry, the kindness of the virtuous lady, Sanchun got it. But I can't promise you. Xu Sanchun's tone was firm, without any hesitation.

Zhao Xuemei's face sank suddenly, "Xu Cainiang, do you know the consequences of rejecting the virtuous lady?" ”

Coercion and temptation have always been tried and tested.

"I believe that the dignified and virtuous lady will naturally not take action in person to deal with my little talented girl." Xu Sanchun was not afraid of her threat, and said, "Besides, there are still ladies in the capital." ”

Yes, she was right.

Zhao Xuemei stared at her with a dark face, she didn't expect that this Xu Sanchun was so young that he could see these relationships so clearly.

The virtuous lady and the lady lady, one is in charge of the country's money and grain, and the other is in charge of personnel changes, both of which are good fat poor. The two have never dealt with each other, but neither of them can help anyone.

Xu Sanchun now belongs to the line of the lady, and if the virtuous lady wants to fight for it, she can send her subordinates to put forward lucrative conditions to win her over, but she can't deal with it in person.

If the virtuous lady makes a move, the lady will not sit idly by. A big man like a brocade official will not make a move easily in order to win a talented girl.

At their level, they can move their whole body.

Xu Sanchun brought out the lady, but Zhao Xuemei was speechless. After a while, she asked, "What benefits did they give you?" can make you so desperate. If you say it, I will fight for you. ”

Her task is to win Xu Sanchun over.

Xu Sanchun smiled and said, "So that Zhao Cainiang can know that not everything in this world has a price." Cui Niangzi from Dongwu Mansion took care of me in every way, and the young lady was even more kind to me. ”

"I remember the kindness of the virtuous lady. I also asked Zhao Cainiang to reply for me, and said that Xu Sanchun was neither virtuous nor talented, and I was not worthy of being so valued by a virtuous lady. ”

Although her words were tactful, the meaning did not change.

Zhao Xuemei snorted coldly and said, "Xu Cainiang, I suggest you think about it again." ”

"There's no need to think about it, I've made up my mind."

"I just hope that you won't regret it in the future!" Zhao Xuemei threw down this sentence and brushed her sleeves away.

The two cups of tea on the table were still cold, and the guests left in a hurry. Xu Sanchun looked at Zhao Xuemei's cup of tea that had not been touched, shook his head and smiled bitterly.

On the way to Dongwu Mansion, she had the idea of waiting for the price to sell, and she knew her talent. However, after all this experience, she never thought about it again.

What Xu Sanchun cares about and seeks is just to live a peaceful and happy life with the dumb girl.

"Cainiang, are you okay?"

There was a gentle knock on the door, and Xu Sanchun looked up and saw Li Jie looking at him worriedly.

"It's fine." She smiled and said, "Don't worry. ”

Li Jie bowed and retreated, and when he arrived at the cabin on the first floor, he gathered several of his subordinates together, and said with a solemn expression: "Tonight, you will be divided into three shifts to strengthen patrols, and there must be no slackness!" ”

"Yes."

Li Jie came to the deck and looked at the direction Zhao Xuemei left, his brows tightly twisted.

He didn't mean to deliberately listen to someone's conversation with Xu Sanchun, but for Xu Sanchun's safety, he was guarding the door at that time. With the power of his ears, it is difficult not to hear.

As Cui Yao's confidant, he knows a little about the affairs in the capital, and he has not heard the name of the virtuous lady. Sending him to escort Xu Sanchun back to Tan'an County was precisely to guard against the other party.

Unexpectedly, the virtuous lady was so anxious that she sent someone here halfway.

He didn't know how to cultivate the magic power of the dark moon, relying on the martial arts that he had practiced since he was a child. But in Dongwu Province for decades, he knows enough about the formation, if not proficient.

At such an age, she was able to get the talented lady that Cui Yao valued so much, and Li Jie just saw Xu Sanchun alone. However, at the moment, Xu Sanchun's value is far beyond his imagination.

His duty is to protect Xu Sanchun's safety, and he must not be sloppy.

The river breeze in late autumn carries a slight chill, and the light of the double moon is faintly projected on the surface of the river, and the silver glow reflects the light purple light. The boats docked at the dock were all lights out, and there was peace.

However, in the quiet of the night, several figures weaved through the shadows of the overlapping buildings of the docks.

By the wharf, there are warehouses, tea shops, etc., and the flow of people is endless and lively during the day. At night, however, a large area is vacated between the building and the moored ships.

The moonlight tonight is faint, but it's enough to illuminate the entire pier.

Those in the darkness will be seen by the guards patrolling the ship as soon as they step out of the shadows where they are hiding. Most of these ships were merchant ships, and for the safety of their goods, they hired dart guards to keep vigil.

However, those people had no intention of stepping forward.

They looked at each other, and at the same time bent their bows and arrows, and the other held a flint to ignite the tips of the arrows wrapped in fire oil.

"There are thieves!"

The firelight in the dark night jumped, and was spotted by the ship's guards, who immediately shouted.

But, it's too late.

Rockets, suddenly.

And the target is the ship that Xu Sanchun is on.

"Be careful!" A brocade guard shouted a warning. Li Jie rushed out of the side of the cabin, and when he looked up, he saw that several rockets were inserted in different places, blazing.

And the second batch of rockets is coming in a flash.

"Defend with all your might!" Li Jie Dantian luck and shouted violently. With a bang, he pulled out his sword at his waist and shot down a rocket. Fortunately, it was by the river, and the rocket went off with a pop as soon as it fell into the water.

However, the ship was made of wood, and one of the rockets was fired onto the folded sail, and in an instant it burst into flames.

"Quick!" Li Jie shouted, "Brocade Guard meets the enemy!" The rest, extinguish the fire, put out the fire! ”

With a sword in hand, he rushed to the second floor in three steps and two steps, and hurriedly knocked on Xu Sanchun's door, "Cai Niang, Cai Niang!" Wake up! ”

"What's wrong?" Xu Sanchun heard the movement, turned over and sat up.

"Xu Cainiang, there are thieves coming!" Li Jie's voice was full of eagerness, "Come out quickly, your subordinates are waiting outside, we must leave this ship immediately." ”

At this moment, the sails outside burned even more violently. The firelight was reflected through the window paper, illuminating Xu Sanchun's face.

She no longer hesitated, and immediately took her clothes and quickly put them on. She didn't wear a hairpin ring, she wrapped a thick cloak, quickly pulled her hair into a bun, grabbed the head of the bed and put the Ye Jian notebook close to her, and pushed open the door.

"Let's go!" Seeing her come out, Li Jie breathed a sigh of relief, held a sword in front of her, and walked downstairs.
