Early in the morning, the carriage was waiting at the door,

"Why don't you have breakfast and then leave?" Lin Qingran asked.

"No, the little marquis is in a hurry, so he brought dry food and ate it on the way." Chen Chong said.

The group left the small city, and after leaving the city, they joined the large army, and the team continued to the capital in a mighty way.

"Sure enough, it is a relative of the emperor, and the pomp of this palace is also quite big." After Lin Qingran left the city, he stretched out his head and looked at the team.

Approaching noon, Li Mingyuan decided to rest in place for the time being. Lin Qingran saw that the team had stopped, and he also jumped out of the carriage.

Seeing that the group of them were sitting around eating dry food, they also leaned over.

"Unexpectedly, the little Dingbei Marquis, a relative of the emperor, is also used to eating this kind of coarse grain." Lin Qingran This is not ironic, because among the people she has seen, as long as the family background is slightly better, they will bring delicious food when they go out.

"It's just food to fill your stomach, so there's no habit of eating or not eating." People who have been on the battlefield and experienced life and death will naturally not be so particular about eating.

So, Lin Qingran also sat down, took out his own dry food and water, and ate a mouthful of dry food and a mouthful of water. Now she has already given up her status as a young lady back then, and she has taken care of her business for the past two years, and she has also suffered a lot.

"Then tell me, did you go to the capital this time because of the king of Dingbei?" Lin Qingran opened the topic first.

"Yes." He said without expression.

"Oh, speaking of this Dingbei King, in the hearts of the people of Yunzhou, he is a big hero, the most admired person, not like someone." After speaking, she glanced at Li Mingyuan.

"Little Hou Ye, this woman is too presumptuous!" An attendant said.

He glanced at her, "Forget it, let her go." ”

Yes, in his heart, his father is not only a hero of Yunzhou people, but also his goal in life.

"Back then, the emperor summoned the king of the north to go to the palace, saying that he missed his younger brother, and in the past two years, he was actually under house arrest by the emperor." In fact, not only Lin Qingran could guess this matter, but many discerning people knew it.

"How do you know?" Li Mingyuan was a little surprised, the royal family did not say anything about this matter.

Lin Qingran's father has also been in officialdom for many years, and the emperor's personality and the tricks commonly used in officialdom are naturally clear to her.

"Then when you entered the palace this time, did you rescue your father, or did you throw yourself into the net?"

"Heh, sometimes it's not a good thing to be too smart." Li Mingyuan sneered.

"Whether it's a good thing to be smart or not, I don't know, but if you mess with the emperor, it's really a bad thing." Back then, my father was dissatisfied with the emperor because of a piece of paper, and finally lost his official position.

He looked at her and said, "My father is seriously ill, and the emperor asked me to pick up my father and come back to recuperate." ”

"Oh. I see! ”

"Then do you think I really did what the emperor said this time, let me take my father back?"

"I'm a woman, how can I guess the emperor's thoughts!"

"It's okay to say it!"

"If the emperor really intends to let the king of the north return to Yunzhou, in fact, he only needs to send someone to escort him back, why should he let you go all the way to the capital, this must have other intentions." She said.

"Yes, that makes sense." Li Mingyuan thought to himself that this woman still has some ability.

"So, you're going to die this time, alas. Forget it, I'd better go back to prison early! Lin Qingran pretended to be helpless and said.

"You think you'll be safe when you go back to prison?" He said with a scoff.

"It's safer than going to the capital!" She wasn't impressed.

"Hmph, okay, if I can safely pick up my father back this time, in addition to letting you go, it will also make you worry about food and clothing for the rest of your life." Li Mingyuan didn't know what kind of medicine Lin Qingran was selling in this gourd.

"Not really, I can support myself. It's just that...... At first I thought it was a less dangerous errand, but now I find it too dangerous. "My own safety is still the most important, and Lin Qingran doesn't want to die.

"Bring people in!" Li Mingyuan commanded.

"Let's go!" An attendant said fiercely.

Following the voice, Lin Qingran looked over and found that Shang Jing was escorted up by one of Li Mingyuan's entourage.

"Shang Jing, why are you ......" Lin Qingran immediately got up and ran over.

"Li Mingyuan! If you want to deal with me, just come at me alone, why implicate other people. Lin Qingran said loudly.

Li Mingyuan patted the soil on his body, stood up and said, "Didn't you say that you didn't know him?" I just caught him sneaking after him, so I got it back! ”

"Shangjing, didn't I let you go? What did you come back to do. ”

"I'm not worried about you, what if he doesn't work against you?"

"I'm alone, he can't do anything to me."

"Hey, can you little lovers not play some life and death drama here." He couldn't stand it anymore.

"We're not in that relationship!" Lin Qingran didn't know if he was angry or what for a while.

"I don't care what kind of relationship you have, as long as I can bring my father back safely this time, I will definitely let you go. Otherwise! ”

"How else!" Lin Qingran asked rhetorically.

"I don't know what will happen, but it's hard to say if he will survive until tomorrow!"

Sure enough, this man was very vicious. Alas...... Never mind. In fact, it doesn't matter what she is doing now, it's just that Shang Jing is willing to accompany her to Jiangnan, and based on this, she decided to protect him.

"Alright! I promise you, but you also promise that no matter what happens in the end, you will let him go! Because my ability is limited, this matter may not be successful. Lin Qingran compromised.

"How do I know if you're doing your best." Li Mingyuan is still not at ease.

"I'll do my best to help you, and if you don't believe me, you can kill me right now!" She was determined to protect him.

"Interesting, well, I promised you!" In fact, Li Mingyuan himself didn't know how much his chances would improve even if Lin Qingran helped him, but a little more was a little more.

Maybe as Lin Qingran said, this is a life of nine deaths, but he has also made up his mind to break the boat.

"Li Mingyuan, you bastard! Why lock up the business scene! After two days of travel, as soon as they arrived in Xingzhou City, Lin Qingran rushed into Li Mingyuan's room and said loudly.

Xingzhou City is a subsidiary city of Yunzhou, and after this city, it is considered out of the control of the Dingwang Mansion.

"He's a prisoner, of course I'm going to lock him up, and so are you, if you shout like this, I'll lock you up too!" Li Mingyuan said.

"You...... It's barbaric! Lin Qingran was not afraid of him, and then she said: "Actually, I have already thought of some plans, but I don't think your eldest marquis is in the mood to listen, forget it!" I'll lock up with Shangjing too! ”。

"Tell me about it!" In the past two days, I watched this woman and the man muttering, and I don't know why it made him a little upset.

"You put the business scene first!"

"Don't negotiate terms with me!"

"It's not a condition, we can escape from Yunzhou City smoothly that day, or Shang Jing reminded me that I can disguise myself as a man to go out of the city, so we can escape safely, and this plan is also the plan I discussed with him in the past two days, so you can't lock him up!" Lin Qingran can still find a reason.

"Oh~ So that's the case, no wonder Chen Chong said that he couldn't find you after looking for two days, what's the matter? And let me award you a military medal? ”

"No, you let him go, and he has to be in the plan! to succeed! She made a random excuse.

"Huh? You're joking with me, what can a powerless little white face do! Li Mingyuan said.

"What a little white face, you are just jealous that people are better looking than you! Then I have to consult with people on weekdays. She said.

"You can just discuss it with me in the future!" Seeing Li Mingyuan so resolute, she knew that it was useless to argue any longer.

"I think you should have brought a lot of money to the capital this time." Lin Qingran carefully observed these boxes, there were no maids in this team, but there were many boxes, and even if they were resting, they were guarded by special personnel, and this time the boxes were filled with very valuable things.

"I advise you not to bother with the idea of the contents of the box, it is a pilgrimage to the emperor." Chen Chong said.

"But, with all this money, you can't save King Dingbei at all." Lin Qingran continued.

Indeed, Li Mingyuan wanted the emperor to let his father go after seeing that the Dingwang Mansion had contributed so much property.

"How do you know if you can't be saved?" Li Mingyuan asked.

"You are stupid, the emperor killed you, isn't this money still his?"

"He won't kill me, I'm his nephew."

"Do you see the situation clearly? The emperor can even confine his own younger brother, and it is estimated that the emperor's illness was forced out by the emperor. Isn't it normal for him to want to find a reason to kill you? "Back then, the emperor also killed his loyal father if he wanted to.

"Presumptuous! You are really lawless, Lin Qingran, don't think that you are a little clever, I won't kill you! "Li Mingyuan once went to Beijing with his father when he was a child, and he saw the emperor, at that time his father asked him to call him the emperor, and he still remembers that the emperor affectionately said that it is okay to call the emperor uncle, and the emperor in his impression has always been a very gentle person.

"Look at you, fight and kill at every turn! And let me talk to you about it! Lin Qingran seems to be accustomed to Li Mingyuan's talk, fighting, and killing.

"What you're saying is nonsense!"

"Then let me ask you, did Prince Ding suffer from any diseases before he went to the capital?"

"Never!"

"Have you sent any letters back?"

"That's all."

"It must be that the emperor does not allow the prince to send letters, plus the emperor is afraid of the Dingwang Mansion, and at the same time, in order to appease the Dingwang Mansion, he sealed your Xiaoding Beihou."

"So what?"

"You can't even send letters, the prince must have a hard time in the palace, and it must be the emperor who is persecuted, and the prince will be physically and mentally exhausted and become ill over time!" Lin Qingran also let it go, if you want to kill it, kill it.

"I think she has some point!" Chen Chong said.

Li Mingyuan's second sister has been married to the capital for many years, and she also wanted to visit her father in the palace many times, but she was stopped. The people he sent out to inquire about the news did not respond, and the emperor did not release any news. In fact, he also knew that his father must have had a bad time in the palace, but he couldn't do anything, did he really want to rebel? If the emperor used his father as a shield, what should he do? He didn't know how to refute it for a while.

"Actually, I'm a little curious, Dingbei Wang Gui is the prince, shouldn't you call your father? Why do you keep calling you father? Lin Qingran asked, only to feel that this matter was a bit redundant, what do people like to call you what.

"When I was a child, I always called my father, and after I met the emperor, he asked me to change my name to my father in the future, I don't want to change, because of this, my father beat me a few times." Li Mingyuan knew that this was to avoid it, so he changed his words.

"Oh......" Lin Qingran didn't expect Li Mingyuan to answer honestly.

"So! You can't give all the money to the emperor! Or some other use! She said.

"How can it be of any other use?" Li Mingyuan asked.

"Along the way, there will definitely be some disasters or suffering, you can donate this money to local refugees, of course, in the name of the emperor, one is to show loyalty, and the other can also gain some people's hearts, and at the same time you can also make friends with some local officials, although you can't say anything to help you say anything in the court, but as long as you are not hostile, it's fine!" Lin Qingran's father also said back then that although it is not easy to be an official, she must also do something practical for the people, which is a method she thought about for a long time.

"Disaster relief? Let me think about it! Li Mingyuan felt that he could think about it.

Originally, he was going to give all the money to the emperor, but he also felt that handing it all over would not necessarily have any effect, and if the money was brought out, he would definitely not be able to get it back, so it would be better to use this to expand his social scope, and it would also be of some help to rescue his father in the future.

"You little head melon, you can't see it, you don't look good, you have quite an idea!" Li Mingyuan thought he was praising her.

I thank you, uncle! What do you mean I don't look good! Am I not good at dressing up? This barbarian, I help him, and he still hurts me like this! Lin Ranqing scolded Li Mingyuan in his heart, but he still said, "Thank you, Little Marquis!" ”

"Can you put it on the business scene?"

"This is not to be mixed up!"

"I discussed it with him, why can't I let it go!"

"You said he had to be in this plan, but there's no need for him now, let's put it when we need it!" Li Mingyuan just doesn't want to release people anyway now.

I really want to scold him for being an ancestor of the eighteenth generation! Alas...... Now that people have to bow their heads under the eaves, Lin Qingran has no choice but to leave.
