Chapter 343 Have you left Changzhou?
"I asked for a position among them and followed them to Changzhou. Now I join the army in Changzhou. After arriving in Changzhou, I found that the troops and the imperial court allocated Changzhou to Changzhou.
The grain and grass on the side don’t match.”
"My father discovered that there was something fishy about it. It happened that the Prince of Qi came to Changzhou, so my father asked me to quietly go to the wine city with the grain and grass purchased from Changzhou by a wealthy family there."
"This shipper belongs to the Lu family shipyard. I mingled among the long-term workers of the Lu family and found you hiding among them when I was sorting out the provisions."
Only then did Chi Yanqing understand what was going on: "So, this is how you want to get me out of Changzhou?"
Yuan Yuan nodded: "Probably!"
"But Miss Chi, what's going on? Why are you here?"
Chi Yanqing said: "Have you heard about the poisoning case of the emperor's grandson in Beijing?"
"The Holy Emperor and His Highness the Prince were furious and ordered Lan Yanyu to investigate thoroughly. This matter involved me again. It happened that Lan Yanyu was responsible for investigating the case, so I quietly followed him out of the capital to investigate the matter.
!”
"I never expected that I would be drugged and then wake up here."
Yuan Yu'an understood immediately, and his expression changed slightly: "Could it be that the poisoning of the emperor's grandson has something to do with Prince Qi's palace?"
Chi Yanqing shook his head: "We don't know yet."
"Unless the person who arrested me is from Prince Qi's Mansion!"
Yuan Yuan immediately said with cold eyes: "These grains and grass are shipped to the wine city, and Prince Qi's palace is in the wine city. I'm afraid these things must be related to Prince Qi's palace!"
Chi Yanqing glanced around: "By the way, you just said that these grains and grass were bought by a wealthy businessman in the wine city?"
Yuan Yuan said: "Yes!"
"The wine city is located in the northwest and suffers from drought all year round. A lot of food has to be purchased from some inland capitals. These are purchased by the wealthy merchants of the wine city."
Chi Yanqing understood immediately: "So, this whole boat belongs to that wealthy businessman?"
Yuan Yuan said: "It should be a wealthy businessman and someone from the Lu family, but the grain and grass were purchased by a wealthy businessman, so the person guarding the grain and grass is the person sent by the wealthy businessman."
Chi Yanqing asked: "What is the name of that wealthy businessman?"
Yuan Yu'an: "It's a wealthy businessman named Xu Zhibao."
Chi Yanqing frowned slightly: "Xu Zhibao?"
"Does it have anything to do with the Xu family in Beijing?"
Yuan Yuan shook his head: "I don't know."
"I don't know anything about the Xu family!"
Chi Yanqing thought the same thing. The Xu family was from the Ministry of Etiquette. Who would have thought that they would be involved in these things. She sat up and looked around. She looked outside through the gap in front of her. She couldn't see the edge at a glance.
of the sea.
She asked: "Then where are we now?"
"Have you left Changzhou?"
Yuan Yuan said: "Not yet."
Chi Yanqing's eyes lit up: "Have you not left Changzhou yet?"
Yuan Yu'an nodded: "No, it's still within Changzhou."
Chi Yanqing was immediately overjoyed: "That's great."
She glanced around: "Where is our next stop? Will this ship dock again?"
Yuan Yuan said: "Qingshan County."
"It will still land. They said they still have food and grass in Qingshan County!"
Chi Yanqing looked at Yuan Yuan: "I won't go to the wine city with them."
"Yuan Yu'an, is there any way you can help me escape from the ship?"
Yuan Yuan's dark eyes glanced at her, and then looked at the people outside: "There are at least ten people guarding here outside, not to mention upstairs and on the edge."
"I'm afraid it might be difficult for you to leave."
Chi Yanqing also looked at the people outside: "No matter how difficult it is, you have to give it a try!"
Yuan Yuan thought for a while: "Then you have a good rest and I will think of a solution!"
Chi Yanqing was very grateful: "Thank you very much!"
The big ship should have set off from Changzhou Port. After arriving at Qingshan Port, it stopped again. There were many people carrying things up. They were packed in boxes and boxes, and they were very heavy.
At this time, Chi Yanqing, who was dressed in the same clothes as Lu's housekeeper and disguised as a man, also painted her face black. This was a set of clothes that Yuan Yu'an found for her.
It wasn't until she dressed up as a man and saw no one outside that she and Yuan Yu'an looked around, no longer hesitated, and prepared to come out of the cabin.
Two more figures came outside, blocking the entrance to the cabin. The guards were here and glanced inside, as if they wanted to see if there was anything strange.
Yuan Yuan pulled back Chi Yanqing, who was about to go out, and leaned on the sack of food to hide. He only heard a voice outside frowning: "Hey, where is that woman?"
When the other one heard this, he smiled sarcastically: "What are you looking at? The boss has told me not to be cautious about this woman. If she disappears, we have been asked to come and see her!"
"Hey, shouldn't I just take a look? That woman really looks like a fairy."
"Is it something you can see?"
"Can't you just look at the shadow?"
"Why was that woman unconscious for so long?"
"Look, that woman is a delicate girl. She has never seen such a big storm on a ship. She must have fainted. Okay, okay, don't look at it. Just stay here!"
"..."
Chi Yanqing and Yuan Yu were huddled there, hiding from the two guards outside who stretched their heads to watch. Chi Yanqing listened to their discussion with a gloomy face.
Yuan Yu put a finger to his mouth to signal her not to make any noise, then came to the other side and made some noise, attracting the attention of the two people outside.
"What's the noise?"
"You stay here, I'll go take a look!"
Soon, there was only one person left outside. Chi Yanqing and Yuan Yuan looked at each other, and when they were about to think of someone to deal with, someone approached again outside.
The person who stayed there immediately said sharply: "What are you doing? You people from the Lu Family Boat Company are not allowed to come near here."
Another person also came over: "What are you doing here?"
The visitor smiled: "Hey, brother, we know that your Xu family will take care of this place. Isn't this the leg of lamb prepared by our boss for us? I thought we would run a boat together on this trip, so I specially sent some to my brother. You guys
Do you want to eat?"
"No, there's still wine here!"
The smell of wine and meat wafted over, and the two people's eyes suddenly brightened. It was very uncomfortable to sail on the boat, but it was much more comfortable to drink wine and eat meat.
The two people immediately changed from the harsh words to laughter: "As expected, you are from the Lu family. You are rich and sensible. Come, come, let's eat and drink together!"
