Qiao Siqi said from the side: "Xiaoxiao, Zhou Chuntong is not a good person. The signal fireworks that were not destroyed must have been left behind on purpose by him."
"You don't need to be polite to a guy like him who doesn't keep his word!"
Zhou Chuntong glared at Qiao Siqi fiercely: "What nonsense are you talking about? It's nothing!"
After he finished speaking, he looked at Tang Miaoxin with a flattering look and said, "Girl, that matter really has nothing to do with me!"
"Qiao Siqi has a grudge against me. He just wants my life!"
Tang Miao couldn't help but let them stumble and said nothing, just staring at the river in front of them.
The moment they exited the formation, she saw a ship approaching from the opposite side.
She said with a smile: "Mr. Zhou, I have wronged you."
As soon as she finished speaking, she raised her foot and kicked Zhou Chuntong into the river.
Zhou Chuntong: "!!!!!"
This is not how things should go!
Not only was he kicked into the river, but all his subordinates were also kicked down.
Tang Miaoxin stood on the boat and looked at Zhou Chuntong and said, "The next step is for Mr. Zhou to take the people you brought here to transport the grain."
"I just took Mr. Zhou through the road to transport grain. I think you have memorized it."
"Don't be afraid, Mr. Zhou, you are the best!"
Zhou Chuntong: "..."
He didn't quite understand the meaning of Tang Miaoxin's words at this time, but he saw Tang Miaoxin and his party setting sail and leaving quickly from another waterway.
In another waterway, he saw a fleet of ships sailing towards his direction from a distance.
His expression changed several times, and he said to the guard beside him: "Hurry up and get ashore!"
He has always been a thoughtful person, but this time he apparently listened to Tang Miaoxin's arrangements, but actually he had other preparations.
Just because his life was still in Tang Miaoxin's hands, he didn't dare to do anything extraordinary for a while.
But he never intended to really listen to Tang Miaoxin in everything.
Zhou Chuntong planned to ask Tang Miaoxin for the antidote after robbing the food. With the antidote, he would have nothing to fear from her.
Of course, he was also prepared to use other methods to force her to give him the antidote if she didn't.
So when he destroyed the fireworks that sent signals last night, he didn't destroy them all, he still kept some.
He just wanted to wait for the soldiers guarding the food to find something unusual, and immediately send a signal to have King Huai's people come over as soon as possible.
In this way, he had fulfilled his duty, and King Huai would not punish him severely for his father's sake.
But what he didn't expect was that after Tang Miaoxin got the rice, she kicked her into the river without waiting for his arrangement to be complete!
Zhou Chuntong looked at the ships approaching. Those ships were obviously not Huaizhou warships.
Because even if King Huai's troops want to come, they can't come when the signal has just been sent out!
So the people coming here are most likely coming to rob food!
Zhou Chuntong recalled what Tang Miaoxin said to him, and he suddenly understood.
He cursed in his mind: "I have never seen such a cunning woman!"
He usually considered himself to be a smart person, but after meeting Tang Miaoxin, he realized that no matter how hard he tried, he could not escape from her grasp.
She seemed to have calculated all his escape routes!
Zhou Chuntong knew that he could no longer fall into the hands of another group of people who were robbing food, so he tried desperately to get ashore.
But the waters in this area were the starting point of King Huai's formation. A large area had been hollowed out, and there were several undercurrents under the water. He tried his best to swim to the shore for a while.
But those ships were getting closer and closer to him, and despair arose in his heart.
He wants to curse!
The boats stopped next to Zhou Chuntong, and the people on the boats asked them: "Who are you?"
Zhou Chuntong said bravely: "We are here for spring swimming!"
He himself didn't believe what he said, and the people on the boat laughed.
After a while, someone on the boat said: "It's really not easy to swim here in spring!"
After saying this, someone lowered the rope and pulled them all onto the boat.
The spring water was still very cold, and Zhou Chuntong was shivering from the cold.
Someone on the boat recognized him: "Sir, this seems to be Zhou Rong's son Zhou Chuntong."
The man on the boat who was called "Sir" was a middle-aged man in his forties with a long beard.
The man is tall and very strong.
He is the person sent by Zhao Yan to Huaizhou to buy grain. He has been in Huaizhou for a while, but there has been no big progress in buying grain.
He received news last night that the King of Huai had hidden grain in this area, so he hired a fleet to come over overnight.
Before he came, he had the mentality of treating a dead horse as a living horse doctor, and did not hold out much hope.
But when he brought the fleet over, he saw the signal exploding in the distance, and now when he saw Zhou Chuntong falling into the water, he felt that this might be true.
He squatted in front of Zhou Chuntong and said, "Mr. Zhou, your interest is really surprising."
"I heard that you are highly regarded by King Huai. I think you know the place where King Huai stores his grain. Could you please take us there today?"
Zhou Chuntong's heart jumped several times. He looked at the bearded man in front of him and asked coldly: "Who are you?"
The long-bearded man replied: "We are here to buy food."
"Don't worry, Mr. Zhou, we only need food. Once we get the food, I will not treat Mr. Zhou badly."
Zhou Chuntong's face was very ugly. He really guessed this!
He really wanted to tell the long-bearded man directly that Tang Miaoxin had already robbed a lot of rice grains, so he could just let them rob Tang Miaoxin's grains.
But he just thought about it for a moment and knew that he absolutely couldn't do it.
Because his life is still in Tang Miaoxin's hands, as long as he does it, she dares to take his life!
He really doesn't want to taste the taste of poisonous hair now!
It was also at this moment that Zhou Chuntong understood Tang Miaoxin's meaning:
Tang Miaoxin not only asked him to take her to rob the grain, but also asked him to delay time for her so that she could take the grain a longer distance in the shortest time.
Zhou Chuntong took a deep breath. At this time, even if he was reluctant, he had to work for her.
He looked at the long-bearded man and said, "All Prince Huai's grain is in the granary. If you want it, just go to the granary and get it yourself. What can you do to me?"
The long-bearded man smiled slightly: "Master Zhou, please don't lie to me. My people have visited the granary at night."
"It looks very lively there, but there is no food at all. It's a trap."
When they came over, they brought super experts with them.
The master sneaked into the granary at night and found out the true and false status of the granary without alerting the guards.
Zhou Chuntong glanced at the bearded man and felt a little complicated.
