Did they train monkeys to help transport refined iron?"
But this is not realistic. Who can guarantee that the monkey will be obedient?
Halfway through, you won’t sneak away.
Xiao Jingze raised his hand and pointed forward.
"Three hills further away is Guancun.
Xuantie Guards are guarding every intersection, and no one has left."
Su Jinxiu looked intently and saw pitch black ahead. She was not familiar with the terrain.
Thinking of what Old Man Guan said, her thoughts moved.
Xiao Jingze looked at her, and she looked back.
"Jingtie, it's still on the mountain."
I just don’t know, which mountain is it?
Xiao Jingze naturally understood what she was thinking and shouted to everyone.
"Go back to Decheng."
The place has been searched carefully, although those people left in a hurry.
But there were no traceable clues left.
Staying here is futile.
Before leaving the cave, I smelled a burning smell.
Su Jinxiu raised her eyes and confirmed that the smell was coming from the slide above.
Thinking of the cottage above, she couldn't help but frown.
"Something happened to the copycat?"
Xiao Jingze shook his head, indicating that she didn't need to panic.
"No, they are going down the mountain."
He had people keeping watch and knew the movements of the stronghold.
Su Jinxiu walked out of the cave and saw the faint red light rising from the top of the mountain.
I guess the boss and the others have figured it out.
"Your Majesty, I want to go to Guancun first."
Now that the boss and the others are determined to go down the mountain, she has to find a place for the general to stay.
Guancun is a nice place.
Xiao Jingze nodded and followed Su Jinxiu forward.
After walking a few steps, Su Jinxiu felt pain in her thigh.
I'm afraid I've walked all the way this year in these two days, and my legs and feet are feeling a little tired.
Xiao Jingze noticed her pace slowing down and glanced thoughtfully.
Then he stepped forward, leaned over and picked her up.
"Can't walk? Why didn't you tell me?"
Su Jinxiu was startled and quickly broke away.
"My lord, what are you doing?"
In the cottage, the two of them were chatting and hugging each other.
That was just to pretend to be a couple, and it's not okay to still be like this.
Xiao Jingze didn't look sideways and strode forward with Su Jinxiu in his arms.
"Don't your legs hurt?"
Maybe he added another sentence to make Su Jinxiu feel better.
"They can't see."
Xiao Rui turned his head with a smile and walked forward without squinting.
"Yes, yes, when people get older, they become blind."
The other Black Iron Guards flew into the darkness and became invisible automatically.
Su Jinxiu covered her face, afraid to see anyone.
Fortunately, we quickly descended the mountain and got on the carriage.
Xiao Jingze put the person down, then leaned aside and began to close his eyes and rest.
On the contrary, it relieved the embarrassment very well.
The carriage was lit with dim candles, which swayed slightly as the carriage moved forward.
Su Jinxiu looked at Xiao Jingze's appearance and remained silent.
He must be very tired.
She thought that she would get off the car after Xiao Jingze fell asleep.
However, the swaying is the most hypnotic.
Su Jinxiu leaned against the car wall, tilting her head little by little.
Before it fell completely, Xiao Jingze held it up with one hand.
He slowly dragged Su Jinxiu's head and asked her to lie down.
He took the big cloak and put it on Su Jinxiu.
The dark cloak made the girl's face fairer.
It's only as big as a palm and nestles neatly in the big cloak.
Xiao Jingze's hand slowly raised.
Lightly, it landed on Su Jinxiu's head.
Caressed slightly.
Soft and silky, just like a cat.
Su Jinxiu seemed to feel something and rubbed it comfortably.
——————————
When I woke up again, it was daylight.
Su Jinxiu got up and the cloak slipped off her body.
She quickly opened the door and found that she had arrived in Guancun.
Xiao Jingze is gone, and neither is Xuan Tiewei.
The only thing left by her side is the afterimage.
"Miss Su, are you awake? Your Majesty told me not to leave."
Afterimage looked indifferent, and Su Jinxiu didn't say much.
He jumped off the carriage and went straight to Guan Liang's house.
I explained my intention to Guan Liang, thinking that it would take a little more effort to get Guan Liang to accept the headmaster and the others.
Unexpectedly, Guan Liang happily agreed.
"Our village will wait until old people like us leave.
But it was really abandoned, and they were willing to stay.
We are naturally happy because there are many houses in the village.
Although the fields are not rich, they now rely on growing flowers.
It can also support the whole family, and the young and strong can find work in the city.
It’s not that difficult, as long as they think about it, it’s easy to survive in the village.”
After receiving these words from Guan Liang, Su Jinxiu felt relieved.
Thinking that I had been out for a long time this time, I quickly returned to Decheng.
As soon as they entered Yueji, they saw Wang Shuangxi holding Li Qiang and crying bitterly.
She stood at the door and did not disturb the mother and son.
Li Qiang came back to his senses and felt a little embarrassed when he saw Su Jinxiu.
"Okay, mother, you've been holding me and crying for most of the day.
Shopkeeper Su is back."
When Wang Shuangxi heard this, he wiped away his tears.
Let go of Li Qiang and quickly run to Su Jinxiu.
"Thank God, the shopkeeper is fine.
If something goes wrong with the shopkeeper, even my ten lives will not be enough to compensate."
Su Jinxiu patted Wang Shuangxi on the shoulder and smiled.
"Thanks to Aunt Shuangxi for reporting the news, otherwise we wouldn't be able to come back!"
Wang Shuangxi was a little embarrassed and quickly waved his hand.
"I couldn't help and asked the man to run away.
It's the prince, chase him all the way.
Unexpectedly, the prince looks scary, but treats the shopkeeper very well..."
Before he could finish the rest of his words, he was pulled away by Li Qiang.
Su Jinxiu thought about it and felt that Xiao Jingze seemed to be really good to her.
After working so hard for so many days, I finally returned to my own territory.
Su Jinxiu took a hot bath and fell asleep peacefully.
————————
On the other side, Decheng County Government Office.
Xiao Jingze curled his lips mockingly and looked at Mu Qingyu and Shen Yu standing below.
"Your Majesty, do you want me to hand over the fine iron case to the Censor of Qiandu and the Minister of Works to supervise the case?"
Mu Qingyu looked calm and nodded slightly.
"Your Majesty feels sorry for the prince because he has many things to do, so he specially sent me and Mr. Shen from the Ministry of Industry to assist the prince."
Compared to Mu Qingyu's submissiveness, Shen Yu was much tougher.
"Your Majesty, please rest assured that you will leave this matter to me and Master Mu. We will definitely not disappoint the Emperor."
Xiao Jingze raised his hand coldly and handed the file to the two of them.
"My lords, please don't disappoint the emperor."
Mu Qingyu took the file and left with Shen Yu.
After going out, Shen Yu looked proud and took the file and looked through it.
"Master Mu is also the censor of Qiandu after all, why should he be so careful?
Now that the emperor has gradually taken charge of affairs, it is legitimate for us to carry out errands for the emperor."
No matter how powerful Xiao Jingze is, he is still a prince.
How can he be compared with the Nine-Five Master? As long as this matter is done well.
The emperor promised him the position of chief assistant!
