Chapter 1,139 Arriving at Xinzhou

 "This is a good thing. It will save a lot of trouble in the future."

After Gong Bin finished speaking, he looked at Gong San. The tacit understanding between brothers made the two of them have the same idea.

However, the two of them didn't want to worry about it by speaking out, and now, I hope they are just worrying in vain.

"That's right, I didn't expect that little sister would have such an opportunity outside. It is indeed the blessing of the spirits in heaven of the ancestors of the Gong family, right little sister?"

How could Gong Wu have thought of such a far-reaching question? Now he is full of joy...??.

"Don't get carried away and talk about it everywhere. The fact that my little sister is a good doctor must not be known to anyone who is interested, so as not to be taken advantage of. Do you understand?"

Looking at his elder brother whose expression suddenly turned serious, Gong Wu could only nod his head obediently.

Lin Mengya also seemed to have noticed something, but now was obviously not a good time to ask questions.

But I'm afraid she will have to be more careful in the future.

"Now, my cousin's illness doesn't matter anymore, but my cousin can't stay here any longer. I have to ask my eldest brother for advice on how to arrange it."

This incident shocked the Gong family quite a bit.

And this kind of thing doesn't just happen in such a small city.

Because of the Gong family's loss of power, this kind of thing happened countless times.

All they can do is to restore the Gong family's strength as soon as possible so that this kind of thing can happen less often.

"I have asked people to stay and take care of my cousin and his family first. Now, the people in the city are unsettled. If we leave rashly, we may be taken advantage of by someone with bad intentions. Therefore, I want my cousin and his family to stay here to recover first. Wait until

After we return from Shinshu, we will pick them up together."

The eldest brother has always considered things carefully, so she has nothing to worry about.

"In that case, let's continue on our way tomorrow. Fortunately, Xinzhou is not far from here. If we hurry up, we can get there in a few days."

Apart from here, other places must be in chaos now.

They don't have enough time to deal with them one by one, so they can only focus on Shinshu's affairs.

If they were feeling a little relaxed before going out, now, the hearts of every Gong family member are heavy.

They are burdened with the blood feud of countless palace family members, and these are all due to the greed of those guys.

Their trip this time was not just to tell the world that the Gong family was back again.

We still have to warn them that from now on, the Gong family vows to get everything back!

It seems that God has also felt the grief and anger in the hearts of the palace family. The weather that used to be bright and sunny is now covered with dark clouds.

The people of the Miya family moved forward and reached the border of Shinshu within a few days.
At this time, there were only two days left before the slave auction began.

"Everyone who is staying in the city tonight, please stay alert and make sure nothing happens. Do you understand?"

Gong Bin calmly ordered the people around. Along the way, they also attracted the attention of some people.

But because they were on their way, many things were handled in a low-key manner, so very few people knew that they were the Gong family.

However, once we reach the borders of Shinshu, many things have to be made public.

Otherwise, you will lose your own people.

The auction market is held in a place called Kanakura Port in Shinshu.

This place was originally the fiefdom of the Gong family, but decades ago, it was forcibly 'borrowed' by the Rong family and the Xu family for various reasons.

Although he said it was a borrowing, Lin Mengya knew better than anyone else how brutal and domineering the meaning was.

Now there is a public slave auction in Shinshu, which is clearly embarrassing to the Gong family.

"Brother, should we still look for the old inn?"

Gong Wu looked around curiously. He was a young man at heart, and it was the first time he saw such a prosperous city. He couldn't help but look around.

Jincang Port is a large seaport, and next to it is a medium-sized city, also called Jincang City.

There are many ships and merchants coming and going here. In addition to merchants selling slaves, there are also foreign merchants selling special commodities from various countries.

But here, people are strictly divided into three, six, and nine grades.

The first class is of course the children of aristocratic families like them, and the second class is the businessmen of the country.

Those merchants from foreign countries are the third class, and the lowest class, that is, slaves who have been trafficked.

In fact, even among slaves, domestic slaves are higher than foreign slaves in terms of price and status.

If a slave makes a mistake and is killed by his master, as a slave in his own country, the master has to pay a sum of money as compensation, but those slaves from abroad will die when they die, and no one will seek justice for them.

Lin Mengya looked at the high walls of Jincang City and couldn't help but feel chills all over.

This city was built on piles of bones, but the smiles on those people's faces were mixed with the disturbing smell of blood.

Did they ever know that everything in this city was exchanged for the flesh and blood of those slaves.

Lin Mengya let out a faint breath. They only wanted to use the prosperity of Xinzhou to humiliate the Gong family, but how could they know that in such a place, which has been stained with blood, even if the Gong family rises again,

I never want to take it back.

"Well, there used to be our inn here. But why didn't we see any of our people at the city gate?"

Along the way, Gong Bin had already sent capable people to conduct inquiries along the way.

According to their agreement, people should have arrived by now.

How come they still couldn't find any trace of that man when they arrived in the city?

Moreover, he sent a letter to the man last night, explaining the time of their arrival, and the man said everything was business as usual.

Even though there are many people, their team is still very conspicuous.

You should, so you won’t miss it.

Could it be that something unexpected happened?

"Perhaps something has delayed us. Why don't we just go there? People will be there after all, right?"

Lin Mengya was not used to the bustle here. She had been floating on the sea for ten months, and after arriving at the Gong family, she spent most of her time reading at home.

Now that she was in such a crowded place, she just felt like there was a little man playing a drum in her head, which made her a little irritated.

Gong Bin knew that this was all he could do for the time being.

Fortunately, he knew the specific location of the inn and took people directly to the Taining Inn in Jincang City.

After walking through several streets, we arrived at a quiet alley where not many people came.

Lin Mengya slowly exhaled, finally being saved.

"You wait here first, Lao Wu, and you come with me to have a look."

Gong Bin was afraid that something might happen here, so he ordered someone to protect his little sister, and then called Gong Wu to call the door.

Unexpectedly, after just two knocks, a head mysteriously poked out from inside.

"The eldest young master, the fifth young master!"

The man shouted in surprise, then opened the door like a thief and waved the group in.

Although it looks a bit shabby from the outside, the inside still maintains the usual good taste of Taining Inn.

But compared to the one I saw before, the scale here is larger.

It's hard for this young man to clean the place so cleanly in such a short period of time.

"Xiaolu, what's going on with you? Didn't I tell you to go outside and wait for us today? Why are you still staying here and not going out?"

Gong Bin frowned, Gong Lu was his cousin, and he always did things safely and cautiously, so he was assigned here.

Unexpectedly, this person almost solved the problem at the critical moment.

If I hadn't seen that the inn was well tidied up, I'm afraid Xiaolu would have suffered a lot.

"I was wrong
, please forgive me, brother."

Gong Lu lowered his head and admitted his mistake. Gong Bin wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Gong Si.

"Brother, I think let's forget it. Xiaolu is only nineteen years old now. It's his first time doing such a big errand, so it's inevitable that he'll make some omissions. Besides, haven't we found it too?"

Gong Si's gentle words finally saved Gong Lu.

The latter immediately lowered his head and admitted his mistake and promised not to do it again, so Gong Bin spared him.

"Come, this is the young lady I mentioned to you in my letter."

Gong Bin smiled and introduced Gong Lu, but who knew that Gong Lu was not as enthusiastic and fearful as he expected.

He just bowed and found a reason to leave.

"This kid is really getting more and more unruly. When this matter is finished, I have to go back and give him a good meal."

Gong Bin's words made Lin Mengya thoughtful.

However, the exhaustion from the journey outweighed all her doubts. Now she just wanted to take a good bath, change into clean clothes, and have a good night's sleep.

I slept until the next day.

Just as Bai Su went out to help her get breakfast, someone looked at her door gently.

"come in."

Since no outsiders had come in except the Gong family members, she didn't have much precaution.

"Miss."

Unexpectedly, the person who came in was Gong Lu, who had ignored her yesterday.

"what's up?"

It's not that she doesn't like this boy.

It's just that, from the first time they met, she always felt that this child had some inexplicable hostility towards her.

She couldn't think of any reason to be resented by this child. After all, she always had a tolerant heart towards the people of the Gong family.

But what happened to this kid?

"I heard that the eldest lady is from Yizhou overseas?"

After hesitating for a moment, she nodded slightly and watched as the child put down the copper basin for washing his face and walked not far away from her, lowering his head so that he could not clearly see his expression.

"Well, I would like to ask the eldest lady to see something. I wonder if the eldest lady has seen it before."

"What?"

The child stretched out a hand and placed an exquisite phoenix hairpin in his palm.

She frowned slightly, how could this thing be in his hand?

"Where did you get this thing?"

Not only did she recognize the Fengchai in front of her, she was also very familiar with it.

That style is exactly what her mother left her.
