Chapter 280 The enemy lurking around
Everything is developing in an extremely smooth direction.
Because of the previous massacre after Ran Qingchen became a demon, other officers and soldiers did not dare to advance rashly.
This gave Mr. Zhao and the others ample time to evacuate.
However, those who left were basically ordinary people. Those people with good cultivation did not follow. They had the ability to wander around the world and regain a foothold outside.
For example, the Master of Mingjian Mountain, and the Ba Dao Xu family that Jiang Shouzhong had visited before.
Jiang Shouzhong didn't see Yan Changqing's ex-wife, so he probably left Qingzhou long ago.
There are also some people who happened to come to do business or play because their homes were not in Qingzhou, and they suffered unreasonable disasters.
They are not willing to go to Shiwandashan, they just want to go back to their families.
Jiang Shouzhong understood them. After all, family is the most important thing, so after escorting them out of the city, he let them go home on their own and see if they could go back alive to see what happened to them.
If you can really go back alive, I believe that the court will most likely not pursue it.
After all, there are so many people in Qingzhou, and a few fish that slip through the net is nothing.
The premise is that these people keep their mouths shut, don't spread the word, and live peacefully as if nothing happened.
After the last group of people were escorted out of the passage, everyone walked out of Qingzhou City. Before leaving, General Zhao bent down and bowed deeply to Jiang Shouzhong:
"Jiang Shouzhong Sir, Lao Zhao, I still say the same thing. If you need me in the future, just give me your orders.
Lao Zhao will give you this life. If the Dog Emperor of Continent dares to kill you one day, Lao Zhao will definitely lead his troops to rescue you as long as he gets the news. At worst, he will rebel against you. ”
The last sentence may be a joke, but if the day comes and Jiang Shouzhong shows enough ability to overthrow the continent, General Zhao will not be ambiguous.
Jiang Shouzhong laughed and took a photo He patted Mr. Zhao on the shoulder and said: "Go well. "
Watching the team leave, Ran Qingchen said:
"If the Dead Island can really develop, these people and soldiers may... maybe establish a small country. ”
"Want to be a queen?"
Jiang Shouzhong heard the woman's subtext and joked.
Ran Qingchen gave him a cute look: "I don't want to at all. You don't want to be the emperor, let alone the Three Palaces and Sixth Academy."
"Listen to my wife, I will be the emperor." Beggar.”
“You can be a beggar, I’ll be a beggar with you.”
Ran Qingchen winked mischievously.
Jiang Shouzhong looked at the woman's little daughter's demeanor and couldn't help but want to hug her waist, but Ran Qingchen dodged it and pointed with his chin at Li Nanshuang, who was happily riding a bull in the distance.
Jiang Shouzhong was speechless.
They were about to return to Beijing to get married, and this woman still wanted to hide it from Li Nanshuang.
Of course he understood what Ran Qingchen was thinking. He just wanted to surprise and scare Li Nanshuang, so that he could have a good show and vent his frustration on himself.
The war between women and women is always so green tea and childish.
But what Jiang Shouzhong is most worried about at the moment is Lao Zhang.
He originally thought that Zhang Yunwu and Lu Renjia were together, but after asking, he learned that the other party had been taken to the capital by the Buddha Mother.
Fortunately, I heard Lu Renjia say that Buddha's mother and Zhang Yunwu were old acquaintances and should not harm him, so I felt relieved a little.
“Stewed noodles, papaya!”
Li Nanshuang jumped off the back of the cow lightly and squeezed in between the two of them. "Is it really okay for us to go back just like this?"
Ran Qingchen, who was pushed aside, was a little dissatisfied.
But thinking that he was about to give this girl a big melon, he didn’t care.
Jiang Shouzhong smiled and said: "What else can the dog emperor do? Don't worry, we will go back so openly. At least for the time being, he dare not touch me.
If he is afraid of what we say, It would be even more nonsense if the truth were revealed.
I bet that people in the capital have already spread the word that the rebels united with the young prince of Nanjin Kingdom to massacre the people of Qingzhou, and the people will believe it.
Even if we use loudspeakers to promote it, how many people do you think will believe it?
No matter what time it is, the imperial court is top-notch in covering up its face. It is difficult for us to make any big waves. All we can do is survive. "
The straight-tempered Li Nanshuang was very angry when he heard that. He clenched his fists and said angrily:
"After I go back, I will ask my family to move away from the capital. It is best to go to the Island of the Dead in Shiwanda Mountain. When the time comes, I'll make a real fuss. Even if I can't kill that dog emperor, I'll still slap a piece of dog shit in the palace! ”
Jiang Shouzhong smiled slightly: "There will be such a day."
......
In addition to Jiang Shouzhong and the others, they were also followed by Rong Yuhe, Li Nanshuang's second uncle, and Lu Renjia's goddess Qingniang. , and several people whose homes are in the capital.
Lu Renjia originally planned to ask Qing Niang to follow him to the Island of the Dead instead of taking risks in the capital, but the woman refused.
Maybe it’s those friends who can’t let go of Chunyulu, maybe it’s other reasons.
There was nothing Mr. Jia could do about this.
While setting off, Qing Niang suddenly came to Jiang Shouzhong.
"Master Jiang, are you Jiang Yi?"
Qing Niang asked in a low voice.
Looking at the young lady with disheveled hair and a burn scar on her face, Jiang Shouzhong was stunned and looked at her in surprise: "How did you recognize me?"
"I have something to tell you."
Qing Niang did not explain, but motioned Jiang Shouzhong to bend down.
Jiang Shouzhong was confused, but he still bent down slightly and got closer to the woman.
Qing Niang put a hand in front of her face to prevent others from seeing her lips, and whispered a few words into Jiang Shouzhong's ear.
The man's eyes flashed, thoughtfully.
He smiled and nodded gently: "I understand, thank you Qing Niang."
Qing Niang said nothing more, turned and left.
"No wonder..."
Jiang Shouzhong touched his chin and murmured, "No wonder I can't find you. That makes sense."
After a brief tidying up, everyone officially set off.
Jiang Shouzhong still chose the water route.
Although there were officers and soldiers from the imperial court on guard along the coast, no one dared to stop Ran Qingchen after he took out the token.
But what surprised Jiang Shouzhong was that there was a large passenger ship waiting for them by the river.
Outside the cabin, Xia He and Qiu Ye looked forward to it.
When they saw Jiang Shouzhong appear, the two women with heavy dark circles and bloodshot eyes expressed surprise, but what followed was full of shame.
"Look, I said this kid can come out alive. You two girls are determined to cause trouble."
Jiang Yi, who was wearing a white fox and mink fur, said with a smile.
Jiang Shouzhong was very surprised by Jiang Yi's appearance. He thought that this woman had returned to the capital long ago.
“Are you waiting for me?”
Jiang Shouzhong asked curiously.
Jiang Yi wrapped her fur clothes tighter, and said with a smile on her face: "What else? These two girls were clamoring to save you, but I forcibly stopped them. Maybe they hate me in their hearts."< br>
"Xia He doesn't dare."
"Qiu Ye doesn't dare."
The two women spoke quickly, looking nervous.
The eldest sister Chunyu and the younger sister Dongxue looked at them helplessly. Besides them, Jinxiu and Calm holding a cactus were also there.
When the loyal Jinxiu saw her young lady, her eyes turned red from tears and she threw herself into her arms.
Jiang Shouzhong smiled tenderly at Xia He Qiuye and said to Jiang Yi:
"You are right to take them away. If they really come to me, they will cause a lot of trouble. "
The corner of Jiang Yi's lips curled up, and she reached out to gently tug Xia He's face: "Did you hear that? It's not that I won't let you go, madam, but that you, the man, dislike you as a burden. "
Women know how to deflect conflicts.
Jiang Shouzhong didn't pay attention to the other party's little thoughts and asked: "Do you know the inside story of Qingzhou?"
Jiang Yi understood that the man was testing and sneered:
"If I had known that Zhou Chang would If you are so cruel, would you still come to Qingzhou? Even if you know, do you expect me to save them?"
Jiang Shouzhong was silent.
“Okay, let’s get on the boat.”
Jiang Yi said lightly, "It may not be safe to go to the capital. The real test will be next."
Jiang Shouzhong looked back at the officers and soldiers in the distance, and led everyone onto the cabin.
The big ship started slowly, entered the river, and headed towards the capital.
Layer upon layer of delicate water waves gently push away.
Looking at Qingzhou City from a distance, the once prosperous city is now shrouded in billowing black smoke, like a scene in the end of the world.
Everyone on the boat was silent, with mixed feelings in their hearts.
Looking back on everything that happened, it was like a dream, extremely unreal.
Even occasionally Jiang Shouzhong felt a little dazed, wondering if this was a nightmare from which he never woke up.
But reality is reality.
So many living people once died there forever.
As the passenger ship got further and further away, everyone's heavy mood also relaxed a lot. Entering the elegant room, Jiang Yi took off her white fox and mink fur, rolled up her sleeves, stretched out a pair of bright white wrists that looked like snow against frost, walked to the basin, washed her hands and asked:
" Where is your female master? "
Jiang Shouzhong came in and shook his head and said, "I don't know, but he must have left Qingzhou."
Jiang Yi said with a smile. "With her character, she will most likely protect you secretly and will only leave after making sure you are not in danger. This woman will treat you as a treasure once she has an apprentice."
Jiang Shouzhong wanted to refute, but he swallowed his words when he remembered the time when Dugu Luoxue made clothes and socks for him.
"Tell me, what do you want me to do?"
Jiang Yi waved Xia He and the others out and asked with a smile while sitting on a chair.
Jiang Shouzhong was silent for a while and then said:
"If possible, can you help arrange for my two brothers and their families to leave the capital? I am afraid that they will be implicated."
"Is there any more?"
Jiang Yi did not respond to his request and continued to ask.
Jiang Shouzhong sat opposite the woman and said, "After returning to the capital, I plan to marry Qingchen."
Jiang Yi raised her eyebrows: "The girl agreed?"
Seeing the man nod, Jiang Yi had a somewhat complicated look on her charming face. She hesitated to speak, and finally said with a smile:
"I always thought she was very similar to my sister, but now it seems that they are not alike at all. It's good that she is willing to pursue her own happiness. As for what will happen in the future, it depends on God's will."
"Then Xia He and Qiu Ye..."
"You plan to marry together?"
"I plan to marry separately. Although it is easier to marry together, Qingchen may not agree, and..."
Jiang Shouzhong said seriously, "For women, this kind of thing is very important and cannot be taken lightly. I believe that both Xia He and Qiu Ye want to have their own wedding."
Looking at the man's sincere expression, Jiang Yi felt a little lost.
She picked up the teacup casually and played with it while saying: "Because of my sister, I have always hated men and these so-called love affairs.
I never believed it, There is no love in this world, and I don’t want Xia He and the others to end up like my sister.
But... sometimes I have to admit that you, Jiang Mo, are indeed a good man, no, not really a good man. A man can only be said to be a good man who has a sense of responsibility and knows how to respect his lover."
Jiang Yi stared at the man in front of her with beautiful eyes:
"Originally I didn't plan to give Qiu Ye to you, but because of what you said, I will arrange the marriages of these two girls, Xia He and Qiu Ye.
After you and Qing Chen get married, I will personally choose It’s a good day to give these two girls a grand ceremony. No gifts or dowries are needed. I will prepare these.”
Jiang Shouzhong said with a smile, “Thank you, Mrs. Jiang.”
< br>Seeing the worry hidden in the man's eyebrows, Jiang Yi frowned: "What? You're not satisfied yet. You don't want to go to both Chunyu and Dongxue."
Woman Sneered: "Jiang Mo, don't go too far, and don't be too greedy."
"Of course not."
Jiang Shouzhong shook his head quickly, pondered for a moment and said, "I still want to do something, but I'm afraid it will involve you. So, can Mrs. Jiang also leave the capital?"< br>
Hearing Jiang Shouzhong’s words, Jiang Yi looked stunned:
“Are you kidding me?”
Jiang Shouzhong knew that what he said was absurd, but killing the prince was something like that. Once exposed, Jiang Yi will definitely be implicated based on his relationship with Xia He Qiuye.
He wasn't sure how big Jiang Yi's background was, but no matter how powerful he was, he couldn't defeat the emperor.
"I'm just worried about getting you involved."
Jiang Shouzhong said.
Jiang Yi suddenly laughed, making the flower branches tremble with laughter, laughing so much that tears came out, and the double arc fell like a tsunami.
After a long time, she couldn't hold back her smile, and her eyes were a little hazy: "Are you afraid of getting me involved? Are you worried about me? Oh my, Mr. Jiang is really compassionate."
Jiang Shouzhong looked at her silently.
Jiang Yi took out a handkerchief and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said lightly:
"Jiang Mo, you and I are not on the same level. Even if you stabbed the sky, you wouldn't be hurt. On me. Even if you are involved, I, Jiang Yi, am solely responsible for it.”
“Okay, I understand.”
Jiang Shouzhong stopped staying and left the room.
Jiang Yi raised her eyebrows with one hand and murmured: "This brat really doesn't know how to stab the sky."
...
Jiang Shouzhong came to the deck and saw the stern side of the ship. Ran Qingchen was talking to Xia He about something.
The latter lowered his head and nodded slightly occasionally.
Seeing Jiang Shouzhong approaching, Ran Qingchen coughed lightly and lightly poked Xia He with his elbow. The latter looked a little flustered and subconsciously wanted to leave, but was stopped by Jiang Shouzhong.
"What are you talking about?"
Jiang Shouzhong looked at the two girls curiously.
Ran Qingchen raised his jade-white chin slightly, pretending to be calm and said: "Nothing, just asking for some advice on martial arts, you say so Xia He."
" Oh, um."
Xia He nodded numbly.
Jiang Shouzhong didn't bother to explore the boudoir whispers between women, and whispered: "Is there something I need your help with?"
"What is it?"
Ran Qingchen was startled and asked.
Jiang Shouzhong stretched out his palm and wrote a few words on it. The two women looked strange when they saw this.
“Let the boss know, just in case.”
Jiang Shouzhong said.
Ran Qingchen said "hmm" and left with Xia He.
On the other side of the bow, Lu Renjia, his second uncle Wen Erye, and Rong Yuhe were standing on the bow, admiring the river and chatting.
Jiang Shouzhong walked up to Lu Renjia and asked with a smile: "Why don't you call Qing Niang out, so you are not afraid of getting sick from being bored in the room?"
Lu Renjia said helplessly: "She said She wants to rest.”
On the side, Rong Yuhe raised her orchid fingers and said in a sissy tone: "I'm talking about Lao Jia, my young lady doesn't want to talk to you at all. Don't you look disgusting when you come close to me?"
Lu Renjia stared at him: "You're a bastard. Women know nothing!"
Second Master Wen gently opened his folding fan, showing a bit of the suave temperament of a romantic young man, and pretended to be sophisticated: "Master Lu, chasing women is a matter of knowledge, you are like this No."
Lu Renjia replied unceremoniously: "You are forty and still single, you know nothing."
Second Master Wen was choked.
He snorted coldly: "I am just wandering among the leaves. If I don't hang myself on a tree, what do you know?" .
Finally it came down to Jiang Shouzhong.
"Xiao Jiang, you are here to judge, isn't it right for me to say?" Mr. Wen Er's cheeks turned red with anger.
Lu Renjia rolled his eyes: "Xiao Jiang is also single, what does he know?"
After saying that, Lu Renjia suddenly remembered what Ran Qingchen had said before that she was Jiang Mo's wife, and he felt a little suspicious for a moment.
Is it true?
Or are you hearing hallucinations in your ears?
Jiang Shouzhong did not participate in this topic, pointing to a river area in the distance and said:
“I remember when I came to Qingzhou, He Lingjing also came by boat, but the boat sank. At that time, I thought it was Unexpectedly, I found out later that someone was doing some kind of sacrifice behind the scenes.”
"Damn it, I don't know who the grandson is. When he is caught, Master A will definitely beat him up."
Lu Renjia cursed in a low voice.
Rong Yuhe frowned and said: "According to the intelligence from the Six Doors Wenxin Department, these people seem to be here for some evil spirit truth."
The second master Wen on the side flashed his eyes, no Say something.
Jiang Shouzhong continued: "When we arrived in Qingzhou, this gang was still active. They were even afraid that I would ruin their plan, so they teamed up with the little prince of Nanjin Kingdom to secretly frame me.
The method of frame-up was quite clever, and I was successfully turned into a street rat and could only hide in the dark.
It’s just that the person pretending to be me has some characteristics, but I haven’t been able to find him for a long time. "
Lu Renjia said: "Don't tell me, Lao Zhang and I were deceived by that fake Jiang Mo, and we almost got fooled at first. Fortunately, Mr. Jia, I am very capable and was not fooled. "
Jiang Shouzhong smiled and said, "That man has a missing little finger, and he also knows me. It stands to reason that he should be easy to recognize." But after investigating for so long, we still couldn't find it.
Later, I suddenly thought that maybe his hands were intact on weekdays, but we didn't notice. ”
Lu Renjia didn't understand:
"What do you mean? How can this finger be intact if it is broken?"
Jiang Shouzhong spit out two words: "Prosthetic limb."
"Prosthetic limb? "
Lu Renjia frowned, raised his little finger and flexed it twice, "Even if it is a prosthetic limb, it can't be compared to the real thing. It will be easier to be discovered."
< br>
Jiang Shouzhong nodded: "Yes, after all, wearing a fake little finger will make it very stiff and unable to move.
It is very difficult to disguise in daily life. You have to wash your face, draw a sword, fight, and pick up things... Five All fingers move naturally, and there is no room for carelessness.
But what if the little finger is not used at all? "
"No?"
Lu Renjia was stunned.
Jiang Shouzhong said calmly: "Qing Niang reminded me just now, and I realized that one of us doesn't seem to use his little finger much of the time. To be precise, he has been using it, but... he doesn't move it very much. . ”
As Jiang Shouzhong finished speaking, the atmosphere instantly solidified.
Ran Qingchen, Li Nanshuang, Calm and the four ladies of Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter stood at different positions on the deck.
Jiang Shouzhong looked at the sissy Rong Yuhe with her orchid fingers, and smiled: "Hello, monkey."
