"Alive!"

The guards scooped the man out of the water and were surprised to find that he was not dead.

"I suffered a heavy blow to the head, and I was probably unconscious when I threw it into the water, and I floated up not long after I drowned in the water, and I didn't drink too much water, so I was lucky!" After the guards checked it, they couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Lin Zhizhi nodded, and then took Lin Jiaruo forward to take a look.

Gan Mingcong took the first step forward, glanced at the drowning man and exclaimed: "Why is he!" ”

Lin Jiaruo stepped forward, and when he saw it, he also exclaimed: "Jiang Ziliu! ”

Being hit in the head and then thrown into the water is a murder in the open!

But how did Jiang Artesian appear here? And who was going to murder him?

Lin Zhizhi raised his head and glanced in the direction of the upstream, pointed to four people to send Jiang Ziliu back to Gan's house for treatment, and pointed to another person to check upstream.

turned around, smiled at Lin Jiaruo, and said, "Do you still want to play?" ”

That night, Jiang Ziliu woke up.

Lin Jiaruo learned about it the next morning.

"He came to Jinling by himself, got lost a few times, and when he walked to the upper reaches of the stream, he was attacked by someone!" Lin Zhizhi, "I didn't see the person who attacked him, and I couldn't say any clues at all!" ”

What a piece of rubbish!

Lin Jiaruo endured it, but still didn't say it.

Lin Zhizhi smiled and said, "However, among the people he asked for directions a few times on the mountain, there were two men who seemed to be playing on the mountain together. ”

"Who will come out to play on such a hot day?" Lin Jiaruo blurted out, and then was stunned.

"According to Jiang Ziliu's description, there is a difference in the identities of these two people, one of them is neatly dressed, and the other looks a little shabby!" The Way of the Forest.

"Do you suspect that these two people are plotting against Jiang Ziliu?" Lin Jiaruo asked.

Lin Zhizhi nodded and said, "Jiang Ziliu said that when he stepped forward to ask for directions, the two seemed to be talking, and they were very indifferent when they saw him; I guess that Jiang Ziliu may have broken their secrets, and the other party had a heart to kill them. ”

"Did he hear anything?" Lin Jiaruo asked.

Lin Zhizhi shook his head helplessly, and did not mention the righteous sentence "Don't listen to gentlemen's indecency".

"This matter, I have already handed it over to the Jiangning prefect to file a case for investigation, so don't worry about it."

Lin Jiaruo didn't plan to worry about it, on the one hand, Jiang Ziliu was unlucky, and on the other hand, there were gangsters in Jiangning Mansion, which had little to do with her!

Suddenly remembered a question: "By the way, what is Jiang Ziliu doing here?" ”

Lin Zhizhi showed a rare playful smile: "He said that he wanted to enter the county mansion as a curtain and follow Gan Mingcong to Daizhou to take office!" ”

Gan Mingcong decisively refused.

"I'm not picking up trash!"

Lin Jiaruo sat cross-legged on the couch by the water, took a bite of the watermelon handed over by the maid, and looked at him in surprise.

Unexpectedly, Gan Mingcong was also quite mean.

"First blocked the gate of the academy and sneered at us, and then came early in the morning to bully you a little girl, this kind of scum! Will I want him? ”

After he finished scolding, he seemed to suddenly realize something, and he came to her and laughed, saying, "He bullied you, I'm angry for you, am I okay?" ”

Lin Jiaruo nodded with a smile and took a piece of watermelon to reward him.

Thinking of Lin Zhizhi's partial affirmation of Jiang Ziliu, he still decided to explain: "Actually, it was a misunderstanding, he thought-" Halfway through the words, Lin Jiaruo suddenly woke up, in fact, it was not a misunderstanding......

Jiang Ziliu thought that she and her eldest brother had something, but in fact there was something......

"Why?" Gan Mingcong finished eating the melon, waited for a while, and saw her little face crimson in confusion, and refused to say anything.

"Well...... Lin Jiaruo said, "He thought I was a man, so he didn't pay much attention to what he said, and was scolded by Miss Cheng...... "Actually, Gan Mingcong didn't hear anything, and he didn't know what his brain was making up."

"Is that so?" Gan Mingcong was shocked, a little embarrassed, it was really him who misunderstood? No!

"He can't even tell that you're a little girl, it can be seen that people are stupid! Even if you don't see that you are a girl, you are still so young, he doesn't know how to let you, it can be seen that he is usually used to bullying the small, and his character is corrupt! ”

All in all, not a good person, not worthy of following him General Gan!

Okay......

Lin Jiaruo felt that he had done his best to Jiang Ziliu, so he happily changed the topic: "By the way, where did you just say you wanted to take me to play?" ”

Gan Mingcong's eyes suddenly became mysterious: "Didn't you say that it was too hot during the day?" I'll take you out tonight! ”

Lin Jiaruo suddenly became interested: "Where can I go to play at night?" Aren't all the shops and stalls outside put away? ”

"There are always a few open!" Gan Mingcong said confidently, stood up and left.

Before leaving, he picked up a piece of watermelon and took a bite, and told her: "Eat less for dinner, when the sun sets, you change into a set of men's clothes, and I will take you out to find something delicious and fun!" ”

Lin Jiaruo nodded "um" and "um".

He walked to the door contentedly, turned back again, and said uneasily: "Don't tell Cousin Zhizhi this time, there are some places where he won't allow us to go!" ”

Big brother doesn't allow it? Lin Jiaruo hesitated instantly.

Gan Mingcong was anxious: "What are you afraid of?" Isn't there me? In Jinling City, who dares to provoke our surname Gan? ”

The girl glanced at him, a little disapproving.

"I'm really not worried, just bring a few more guards! This is Jinling City, can anyone turn the sky upside down in front of me Gan Mingcong? He was a little angry that Ah Ruo didn't trust him so much.

Lin Jiaruo finally nodded reluctantly.

Even if she doesn't tell her big brother, but she wants to go out, can the big brother not know?

It was also a coincidence, when she woke up from a nap, Lin Jiaruo got the news that Lin Zhizhi had something to do temporarily, and she didn't know when she would come back, and told her to eat and sleep by herself, and she didn't have to wait for him.

So after dinner, Lin Jiaruo changed into a set of noble son's clothes, and when the lights were on, he followed Gan Mingcong and sneaked out from the side door of Gan's house.

As soon as the front foot went out, someone on the back foot reported the news to Gan Lun.

"The second son shouldn't take the little princess to get into trouble, right?" Thinking about his second son, he is a little worried.

Gan Lun also hesitated for a moment, then relieved his eyebrows again, and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay!" Didn't they bring people with them! Let them play! ”

When he went out, Lin Jiaruo found that Jinling was much more lively than Yuhang, and it was almost the same as the capital.

Even though it was night, there was no sign of depression, and many of the shops along the street were still open, and it was estimated that they would not stop until the last minute before the curfew began.

And the place where Gan Mingcong took her was even more lively.

Lin Jiaruo felt that he was also a person who had seen the world, and he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw such a scene of bright flowers and willows and drunken gold.
