In the envelope, there was also a note that read: "Pay the money to avoid disaster, otherwise, you will bear the consequences!" Then there is an address, let Wen Jin prepare 80,000 taels of silver tickets, and send them to Qiwan Town, Huitonghe Wharf, more than three hundred miles south of the capital, the handwriting of this letter is also very sloppy, at the bottom of the note, a gate is drawn, and there is a strange-shaped beast-shaped woodcut pattern on the door.

Wen Jin has seen this pattern, it is indeed from the Yuanshenmen back then, is it true that there is really a remnant of the Yuanshenmen scum flooding? Wouldn't the stepmother and brother be more dangerous? Wen Jin was flustered, and his mind was almost out of thinking.

Chunming looked at Wen Jin nervously, not understanding why the princess suddenly turned pale, Wen Jin gave her the letter, Chunming looked at it a few times, and her face was also flustered, but the shock in her heart, after all, was lighter, and she quickly eased up: "Princess, please drink tea!" She poured a glass of warm water and handed it over.

Wen Jin took it and drank it all in one go, his heart was not so stuffy, and his mind was much clearer: "Another cup!" ”

"Yes!" Chunming immediately poured another cup and handed it over with both hands.

Wen Jin slowly took a sip and tried to calm down his mood, the matter has already happened, it is useless to be anxious, Qian Jun is not at home, and the rescue depends on her, Wen Jin picked up Qian Qian's letter again and looked down sentence by sentence, but unfortunately, between the lines, there was no hint, not even a word about his father.

Although his father and Qian Qian began to practice and did not often write letters to their families, Xiao Yuchen would write to Wen Jin regularly, and the two of them always said it together, proving that Qian Qian was not separated from his father, this time, if the robbers kidnapped his son alone, his father and younger brother would inevitably rescue him, why didn't they believe it?

Why did Qian Qian write letters to himself thousands of miles away instead of asking his uncle for help? Eighty thousand taels of silver is a big amount for others, but for my father, it is not difficult to take it out, why should he go far and near? Could it be that something happened to my father? Thinking of Xiao Yi's love for him, Wen Jin's heart couldn't help but feel sad.

"Princess, you have to be strong." Chunming comforted Wen Jin in a low voice.

"Yes, I will." Wen Jin choked up, but immediately took a deep breath, forced back the tears, crying, that is the manifestation of the weak, now, the lives of the father and son are related to herself, she can't be weak.

"Princess, what's the matter, there are me and Xia Yang, I don't believe that those robbers have three heads and six arms." Chunming also comforted softly.

"Okay, you ask someone to bring water, I'll wash my face and be sober."

Wen Jin drank tea and washed her face, and sure enough, she controlled her emotions, and she asked Chunming: "What kind of person sent a letter?" ”

"A beggar."

"What about people?"

"He was still in the gatehouse just now, he was about to leave, but he was stopped by Steward Xiao."

Wen Jin patted his head, this Xiao steward was the third son of Xiao San, the big housekeeper of the Xiao family, and A Lai, Xiao Yi had already given them a family to get out of the country, let them live in the Xiao Guogong Mansion in the capital, and help take care of the courtyard, at that time, I didn't expect it to be gone forever, more than 20 years have passed in the blink of an eye, Xiao San and A Lai have passed away, but his sons still follow the wishes of their parents, guarding the door and watching the courtyard for the Xiao family, this time Wen Jin returned to Beijing, and the Xiao family also came to kowtow and salute, Qian Jun fell in love with this little Xiao San - Xiao Chun, Xiao Chun originally intended to take refuge, but when he saw the prince's appreciation, he was overjoyed, and he wrote a letter of delivery and volunteered to become a subordinate of the palace. The person who volunteered, although he was a slave, but his status was much higher than that he bought, Qian Jun gave him a few things, and when he saw that he really had some talent, he let him be a steward in the outer courtyard.

"Bring the messenger and call Steward Xiao."

"Yes!" Chunming went out and arranged for the little maid to run errands, she stayed by Wen Jin's side, and after a while, Xia Yang and the dance and the dance also came.

The beggar who delivered the letter was very old, with a scruffy beard, and could not ask anything, so Wen Jin ordered: "Send him to Zhuangzi and raise him." ”

"Yes!" Steward Xiao took people away, and Wen Jin began to read the letter again, she always felt a little strange, but what was wrong couldn't be said for a while.

The house is very quiet, mango and longan, they will always come over when they take a nap, but they don't see a shadow today, maybe Chunming arranged for the nurse to play, Wen Jin stared at the address where the money was sent, this dock is the intersection of two waterways, and there are also two official roads on the shore, the thief took the money, and it is indeed very good to run, but, strange is strange here, if it is a thief in the north, how to run to the south to commit a crime? If it is a thief in the south, how can he know so well about such a small place? There is also the name of Qian Jun and his father, aren't thieves afraid of death? There are many rich people in the capital, and the children are playing outside, and the guards are not much more powerful, and the thieves hijack it, and it will not be much more difficult than hijacking the money. By the way, what about the master of money? Isn't it supernatural? Why, there is nothing on this letter! Wen Jin hated that he couldn't catch his son and beat him, so why didn't he write a few more words.

Struggling all afternoon, in the evening, Wen Jin's mind, there is still a plan of action, she doesn't think that the thief took the money, will let go of the son, then, there is only one way to go, on the one hand, send people, rush to ***, to see if the father and younger brother are in trouble, ready to rescue the operation, on the one hand, she will now send someone to stare at the wharf of Qiwan Town within a radius of ten miles, hoping to find the traces of the thief, see what kind of person it is, kidnap the son, if necessary, you can also start in time to arrest the thief who received the moneyand exchange him for his son.

80,000 taels of silver, in the eyes of ordinary people, is a big number, the thief who came to receive the money must be a more important leader among the robbers, Wen Jin analyzed, the other party will care about his life, and it is more likely to exchange him for money.

When Jin Jin heard that his younger brother had an accident, he was also very anxious, so he brought Zheng Zaixin and Zheng Yu overnight, and several people discussed it all night in the outer study, and supplemented and perfected Wen Jin's plan, and then immediately put it into practice.

The next day, another beggar came, and the content of the delivery was only a few threats, asking Wen Jin to send money obediently and not to do any tricks, Wen Jin didn't say anything, and still asked people to send him to the farm, where he could be raised without lack of food and drink. On the third day, the day of the payment came. Although Wen Jin objected to his son's involvement in danger, but in the end, Jin Jin held the silver ticket box and personally sent it to the wharf of Qiwan Town, he got into a carriage and walked out of the alley with a dozen guards, and there were two beggar-like people, who stood up and patted the soil on their bodies, and went west, they were in Qianmen Street, one to the south, the other to the north, separated like strangers, but someone smelled that they both had a smell of mutton in their mouths, and it was very likely that they had the same breakfast at breakfast. That's the suspicion.
