Chapter 132: Accepting bribes privately

Jiang Huaifu was slightly stunned, raised his head, and his eyes like a deep pool were fixed on the figure in front of him.

"What's the big deal?"

Shen Jiadai hesitated for a long time, but finally spoke.

"Miss Song's father...... He had contacts with officials in Xizhou, and collaborated with several prefects of the Central Plains in Tongzhou and Bianzhou outside the country to privately resell official salt and receive hundreds of thousands of ..... in silver."

Jiang Huaifu's pupils tightened, "Take bribes? Wasn't her father imprisoned in Xinzhou? How do you know about this kind of thing? ”

"Cousin, what I said is the truth, and this is also the news I intercepted from the spies in the palace, but this is ..... I can't stop it, presumably my uncle already knows, if he reports to the Emperor of the Central Plains, Miss Song's whole family can be said to be guilty of one more degree, and when the time comes, it will ....."

Jiang Huaifu didn't speak, just stared at Shen Jiadai intently, and after a long time, he asked, "Are you half a lie?" ”

When Shen Jiadai heard this, her expression was a little lost, she was a little unliking Jiang Huaifu, but no matter what, she was also from a famous family, how could she say something without evidence.

"Cousin, I came to you at the risk of my life, you don't want to wronged me, besides, what's the use of me making this up? If I wanted to harm Miss Song, or if I was entrusted by my aunt, I shouldn't have told you, let their family be in trouble, instead of coming here to report to you! ”

Jiang Huaifu saw that Shen Jiadai was emotional, so he didn't continue to talk to her, but asked his subordinates to clean up another room for her and invite her to rest next door.

Shen Jiadai was a little depressed, turned around and left the room.

The soldiers guarding outside saw Shen Jiadai leaving very unhappily, so they cautiously pushed open the door, thinking about seeing the movement inside.

"Your Highness, are you alright?"

Jiang Huaifu was silent for a long time, then suddenly raised his head and asked, "Have you crossed the river tonight?" ”

"Back to Your Highness, yet, Jiang Chun and they are planning to go!"

"No need, this king will go over in person tonight."

The soldier was a little surprised, "Your Highness, you better go over there less, even if you have a deep friendship with Miss Song, that is also the place where the prisoners of the Central Plains stay, Your Highness should pay attention to her identity, we will help her openly and secretly!" ”

Hearing this, Jiang Huaifu's face instantly darkened, and the soldier was so frightened that he immediately shut up.

"It looks like you're going to be the lord of this king."

"No..... The subordinates don't dare! ”

"Then let's hurry up and prepare!"

The soldier nodded, and was just about to turn around and go out, when he turned back and asked, "Your Highness, do you still want to bring some emergency things that you said you had prepared before?" ”

"If you don't bring it, do you want to keep it?"

"Uh...... Yes, the subordinates know. ”

The soldier closed the door and hurried down to prepare.

.......

Zhang Xiu'e put away all the oil-paper umbrellas and put them in one place, waiting for the businessman opposite to come and pick up the goods.

The night was dewy and heavy, except for a few children who slept soundly, several adults couldn't sleep excitedly, after all, this was the first time they made money on the chassis in Xinzhou.

With this opportunity, I hope that I will not be hungry and cold again in the future......

"I counted, there are sixty-two handfuls in total, and according to the wages they agreed upon, they should give us one hundred and twenty-four copper plates, which will buy some rice and eggs, right?" Zhang Xiu'e asked.

Li Qiang's daughter-in-law folded the children's clothes and replied: "You can't just buy food, this can not be less, the children's clothes haven't been washed for a long time, we need wooden basins, and brand new dishes and chopsticks, we used to eat before Lord Song brought over, the number is not enough to eat in shifts, it is better to buy some, simply these dishes and chopsticks are not worth a few dollars......

Zhang Xiu'e nodded again and again, "Okay, that's right, then let's talk about it, what you need to buy, I'll write it down on paper, and hand it over to the merchant when the time comes." ”

Song He'er looked at the dark river, and saw that there was not the slightest swaying of light and shadow, and he could know that Jiang Huaifu's men had not yet come.

But it's strange to say, they came at this hour a few days ago, and they have always been very punctual, why is it so late today but there is no trace?

Zhang Xiu'e stretched out her hand and shook it in front of her.

"He'er, what do you want? Your aunt's health is almost better, and there are a lot of things to eat at night, you will stay with her for a while, the weather is cold this night, don't give you a cold and cold, this delivery errand will be handed over to Li Qiang and your third uncle! ”

This is normal, Song He'er agreed, but today she always felt that something was wrong with the situation, and wanted to go over to see it herself.

"I can't sleep, I'm young, I want to go out and run more, why don't you let me follow, the third uncle and Uncle Qiang move the goods, I'll follow next to me!"

Zhang Xiu'e was a little incomprehensible for a while, "You kid, it's quite cold outside, what are you going to do?" ”

Chundi smiled and helped intercede on the side, "Just let her follow, this kid has a smart brain, and he didn't make trouble for us along the way, but he helped us a lot, I can't sleep, and I stay and stay, so let her go." ”

"Am I not afraid that she will freeze?"

"What is the cold, young man, the firepower is strong!"

Zhang Xiu'e was also a little helpless for a while, so she could only nod her head, "Okay, then let's follow, come back as soon as you finish handing over the goods, don't be greedy for fun." ”

Song He'er smiled happily: "Third aunt, don't worry!" ”

Zhang Xiu'e smiled and didn't speak, and continued to help Song Xiaoyu sort out the oil-paper umbrellas under her hands, and finally tied up those umbrellas with hemp rope and put them aside to wait.

After another half an hour, there was finally movement on the surface of the Shuhe River.

It's just that today's boat is a little bigger than the previous two times, and the light on it is getting brighter, unlike the boat that ordinary soldiers often sit on.

"Third uncle, Uncle Qiang, you take things slowly, I'll go over and take a look first!" Song He'er said this and ran towards the river.

"Slow down!"

Song He'er couldn't care about what the people behind her said, and ran quickly towards the bright light.

The light became clearer and clearer, and Song He'er gradually saw the majestic figure standing on the deck, wearing an ink-colored robe, and a pair of deep and distant eyes as bright as gems.

Song He'er held her breath, looked back at Song Xiaoyu and Li Qiang, who were rushing here, and saw that they still had some distance to get here, so they ran to the closest place to the boat.

"Why are you here?"
