Su Ying took out the flashlight from his body and turned it on, and almost all this part of the foot of the mountain was illuminated.

She stepped forward to check the identities of the men in black one by one, but there was nothing on them.

She pinched open their mouths and saw that there was a poison bag hidden inside, and it was a dead soldier.

Xiao Ember sent people to follow her behind her, but their speed was not so fast, and in order not to attract attention, those people would deliberately keep a certain distance from her.

Su Ying took out a signal flare from his body and threw it into the sky, and the sky exploded with a "pop", and the secret guard not far away quickly discovered it.

After waiting for nearly half an hour, the dark guard finally arrived.

"See the Queen."

"Get up, these people are here to assassinate me, you take care of it yourself, and I'll continue on my way."

"Yes."

After handing over the man in black to the dark guard, Su Ying turned over and continued to hurry.

As we approached the border of Jingzhou, it rained heavily.

Su Ying took out an air canopy from the space to block it, and the rain couldn't get on her at all, and it wasn't until dawn the next day that she saw the gate of Jingzhou City.

From a distance, a thick black cloud shrouded the sky over Jingzhou City, as if it was about to crush Jingzhou City, so thick that people couldn't breathe.

Su Ying continued to ride his horse and came to the city gate.

I don't know if it's out of fear of the heavy rain of jade, there are many people waiting in line at the city gate to get out of the city, and there are very few people who go in.

In order not to attract attention, Su Ying changed into ordinary men's clothes when she approached the city gate, and after arriving at the city gate, she handed over her customs clearance document to the official messenger, who only let her in after seeing that there was no problem.

Xiao Shen said that Zhu Lin lived in the City Shou Mansion, and after asking passers-by for directions, Su Ying went to the City Shou Mansion as soon as possible.

Jingzhou's City Guard Mansion is located on the most prosperous street in Jingzhou City, Su Ying looked at the three big characters of "City Guard Mansion" on a black background and red gold and turned over and dismounted.

It's just that as soon as she approached, the official guarding the door stopped her.

"What kind of person, the city guard mansion is actually easy for you to approach, don't leave quickly."

"I want to see your city guard."

As he spoke, Su Ying took out the token on his body.

The guard was startled when he saw the dragon pattern on the jade plate, and immediately changed his face and invited Su Ying to the room in the outer courtyard, "You wait a while, we will go and send a message to the adults." ”

The guard didn't have long to leave, and he was followed by a middle-aged man, dressed in a dark blue robe, with a small goatee on his face, and a pair of thin eyes that looked like a bureaucrat shrewd.

"The lower official has seen this adult, I wonder if the adult is here to deliver the drawings?" Yi Kun asked directly.

"That's right, what about Zhu Lin?"

Yi Kun got up and said: "My lord doesn't know, after Lord Zhu arrived in Jingzhou, he was busy day and night for the matter of the dam, and he fell ill the day before yesterday, and he is still unconscious, and the lower officials did not take good care of Lord Zhu, and he was very ashamed in his heart. ”

Su Ying frowned, "Zhu Lin is sick?" ”

"Yes, people are still recuperating in the house."

"I'll take a look."

Su Ying got up and was about to go out, but Yi Kun stepped forward to block Su Ying's way.

"Don't worry, Lord Zhu is fine, but I'm too tired and caught the cold, and I'm still asleep, the most important thing now is to repair the new dam as soon as possible, just in case, please take out the drawings first."

Su Yingfeng glanced at Yi Kun with heavy eyes, "I'll go and see, I can't delay this quarter of an hour." ”

Yi Kun saw Su Ying's insistence, so he accompanied her to Zhu Lin's resting place.

The maid pushed open the door of the guest room, and Su Ying smelled a smell of medicine.

Yi Kun saw Su Ying frowning and explained: "Because Lord Zhu is infected with the wind and cold, and he can't go crazy, the lower officials let people close the doors and windows." ”

Su Ying didn't say anything, just walked straight to the bed.

There was a person lying on the bed, it was Zhu Lin.

It's just that Zhu Lin at this time is completely different from the previous cheap face, his face is extremely pale, and his lips are pale and can't be seen clearly.

Su Ying reached out to check Zhu Lin's pulse, and found that his qi and blood were extremely weak, it was just a cold, how could it be so serious, she felt that something was wrong.

She reached out and lifted the quilt on Zhu Lin's body, and was about to check the situation on him, when Yi Kun suddenly stepped forward and pulled the quilt to cover Zhu Lin.

"This lord, Lord Zhu is infected with the wind cold, and his body is already so weak, he must not catch a cold anymore, please forgive me."

Su Ying glanced at Yi Kun again, but did not insist any longer, but followed him to the study.

"I don't know what the adults call them, what kind of position do you hold in the palace?" Yi Kun asked.

"Waiting for the Emperor."

Yi Kun saw that Su Ying didn't want to say more, and didn't ask any more questions, but just asked Su Ying to take out the drawings.

"Let's go to the dam first, I want to know what is wrong with this new dam."

Yi Kun did not refuse, and directly asked people to prepare the carriage.

"Your Excellency, please."

The dam is in the mountains, a certain distance from the city, in order to save time, Su Ying did not take a carriage, but rode a horse.

Yi Kun saw that Su Ying was not easy to ride a horse, so he could only ask the official to bring a horse over.

In order to build a new dam, the imperial court opened a road out, although it is a yellow mud road, but it is much easier to walk than the mountain road.

When they ran all the way to Xinba, it was close to noon.

Su Ying stood halfway up the mountain, took out a telescope from his body and looked at the building not far away, which should be where the new dam is located.

When I went up, there was still a lot of work on the construction of the new dam, and when I saw Su Ying and them coming, a man who looked like a foreman hurriedly ran over and nodded to Yi Kun with a flattering face.

"Why did the adults come here, it's raining and the roads are muddy, but don't get your shoes dirty."

Yi Kun glanced at him, "It is the duty of this official to supervise the process of repairing and completing the new dam, this is a person from the capital, you must not be rude." ”

As soon as the foreman heard this, his smiling face turned to Su Ying, "It turned out to be an official from the capital, it's really disrespectful, don't worry, don't worry, there will definitely be no problems on this side of the dam." ”

Su Ying didn't know much about construction, but when she saw that the workers had been doing this work on the dam, she really didn't see anything unusual at first glance.

"Didn't you say that something was wrong with the new dam and that it needed to be repaired internally? How? Now it's okay again? ”

The smile on the foreman's face froze, but he quickly came back to his senses, "Yes, yes, yes, it needs to be repaired, and now we are waiting for the original map of the imperial court to be sent, so that we can know how to repair it." ”

"Your Excellency, you have also heard, the most important thing for the future is to get the original map, and then repair the problematic areas as soon as possible."

Su Ying nodded when she heard this, "What Master Yi said is right. ”

After doing a brief inspection, Su Ying followed Yi Kun down the mountain and returned to the city guard's mansion.

By this time, night had fallen, and it was already dark.

Su Ying said that she was hungry, and Yi Kun said that she held a small banquet at night to catch the wind and wash the dust, but Su Ying refused.

"No, just bring the food to my house, and after a brief meal, we will discuss how to repair the dam."

Yi Kun didn't refuse when she heard her say this, so she asked her to bring the meal into the guest room.

After the door to the guest room was closed, the attendant went to the study.

"My lord, the food has been delivered, and this person from the capital doesn't look like a scheming person."

Yi Kun didn't have any expression on his face, and he didn't dare to show favor to the people from the capital easily, because he couldn't figure out the other party's thoughts.

"Anyway, let's get the original picture first."
