"... When the late emperor visited Qiantang Water Conservancy on his southern tour, he got off the dragon carriage at the edge of the bridge. When he saw the name of the bridge, he smiled slightly, pointed to the ground and the sky, and then walked past. The local officials accompanying him were extremely nervous, and the handsome carriage driver pointed at the bridge."
There are bridges as there are in the sky and on the earth.' I don't know which official blurted out cleverly, 'The earth is south of the city, and the sky has the sun, moon and stars!' So the ancient bridge was renamed 'Nanxing Bridge'. The specific details are no longer known, but the common people are
Spread this saying more and more widely..." Accompanying Jiuye to the place where the late emperor visited, Mo Wenlong's mouth was like a lotus flower along the way, and all kinds of allusions came out of his mouth, even though Jiuye had seen a lot of things
, I couldn’t help but listen to it with great interest.
That year, Master Jiu didn't catch up with the late emperor's second southern tour, and Mo Wenlong also didn't catch up. But he was able to tell the truth about trivial things in a very interesting way. Master Jiu laughed along with him from time to time, which was very unpleasant.
lonely.
Perhaps because of this, I didn't feel tired after walking along the river embankment. I walked around the places where the late emperor had walked, and only saw some local delicacies that had been eaten before. It was a very solid day.
In the middle of the afternoon, Master Jiu looked troubled. Mo Wenlong immediately made arrangements.
Boating on the West Lake, the boat is not big, but it is also exquisite in every aspect.
Master Jiu had the temperament to do whatever he had to do. Now that Mo Wenlong was nearby, he was not in a hurry at all. He said he was tired and naturally went back to the room arranged in the cabin to sleep.
Mo Wenlong and Zhou Tong stayed outside and did not dare to rest.
There were people brought by Mr. Jiu on the boat, and there were many things to talk about, so the two chatted. Zhou Tong said that he heard that his wife's illness was hopeful, so congratulations. Mo Wenlong smiled and nodded.
, and also talked about the marriage of someone else's daughter, saying that the son-in-law had been selected as a scholar early, and he was also young and promising with a bright future. Zhou Tong quickly complimented the other person's son, and showed filial piety even if he did not mention it to others.
The parents chatted briefly. Seeing that everyone around them had almost left, Mo Wenlong quickly asked in a low voice: "Brother Zhou, it seems that Master Jiu is a little uninterested, but if there is anything that is not good about the reception, please don't hesitate to tell me."
."
Where is the reception not good?
Zhou Tong chuckled and said: "I have thought too much about you, Master Jiu is really tired. This time I went out for an urgent matter, and there were not many people to take with me. There are times when I was not attentive. This has nothing to do with you, sir..."
"
Even if the number of people he brings is small, he will not be able to serve such a master well. If he is not well served, he will not be brought out like this.
There is something in this.
There are too few people to bring them? There are too few people to serve them? Can’t we just send them away?
He felt that this was Zhou Tong deliberately soliciting bribes for Master Jiu in disguise. But when he thought about it, it was wrong. Did Master Jiu want anything? Power? He was deeply trusted by Lord Long Live. As a prince, he was a small person.
What can a fourth-grade official do? Ask for money? This is even more nonsense. Look around the Qing Dynasty and see who has more private property than him. Long live the Lord.
If it’s not power or money, then what is it?
color!
He slapped his forehead, he was really stupid! Isn't this hint obvious enough? He came out in a hurry, and he was doing business, and he didn't bring a concubine, so he didn't take care of him very attentively.
Men! You have needs both psychologically and physically after being away for a long time.
Thinking of this, he smiled gratefully at Zhou Tong, and then said: "Brother Zhou was also at Nanxing Bridge just now...Brother Zhou, what do you think about choosing a place upstream or downstream to build a free crossing?"
Free ferry?
Once the word "righteousness" is mentioned, it means spending money in vain.
Zhou Tong didn't know what Mo Wenlong meant when he suddenly said this. But he still hurriedly agreed. As a parent official, it is natural for him to ask businessmen to pay for building bridges, repairing roads, and supporting students, etc. This face must be restored first.
Although I don't feel very happy.
With this thought in mind, he stood up and said, "It's getting late. Let's go down and see if Mr. Jiu is up?"
It seems to be similar to Jiuye Duoqin.
Mo Wenlong smiled and agreed. Such things just depend on the size of the individual. If you really can't understand it, then... forget it and pretend that you didn't say anything.
Master Jiu rinsed his mouth while listening to Zhou Tong's words. He recounted the exact conversation he had with Mo Wenlong before.
"Pfft..." Master Jiu spit out the mouthwash in his mouth, and automatically filtered out those things that suggested that Mo Wenlong arranged a woman for him, and directly talked about Yidu, "If you don't get the money, from now on
Get it from here..."
Zhou Tong was confused, but still said: "I have the money, but I just don't know..."
Stupid!
In fact, the cost of building a free ferry is not very high. However, once such a ferry is built, it will not only facilitate the people coming and going, but more importantly, it will attract popularity. In an unknown place, because of the free ferry, it will be in people's subconscious mind.
Here, here is a ferry. Once this understanding is formed, how much potential the ferry here will have. Build a wharf on the basis of the ferry. In a huge Hangzhou, the profits brought by river transportation can be imagined.
After Jiu Ye said this to him, he couldn't help but said with a bit of joking: "You also said that you are a veteran in the shopping mall. It's just a slap in the face. Mo Wenlong has a very broad vision...
"It's just bad luck.
You said everything was fine, but you got entangled by those monsters, blame him!
In fact, what did he do wrong?
According to the purely female thinking of the Queen and Fujin, they think people are unkind. This is a matter of character and has nothing to do with matters of great right and wrong.
But for someone like Mo Wenlong, when he got his wife, he only took two concubines and one who was honest and of pure origin. That was for the purpose of procreating heirs. This is not wrong. There are three unfilial piety, not having any offspring is the worst.
, although there is a legitimate son, there is only one. Producing offspring is filial piety to the ancestors. The little affection between men and women is nothing compared with the great avenue of filial piety. Therefore, in the eyes of many people, Mo Wenlong
Such an arrangement is not a violation of personal ethics, but rather praiseworthy. I didn’t see that this concubine had two sons. In order to maintain the status of the first wife, I got a concubine to preside over the middle wife. This is to balance the backyard to ensure that the legitimate children
The wife’s status in the family.
What's wrong?
There is calculation in mind but no intention, it is an unintentional mistake.
If this guy was demoted and removed from office, Master Jiu would feel aggrieved on his behalf.
After retracting his thoughts, Zhou Channel said: "I feel that I owe you a big favor, so I gave you a hen that lays eggs. This favor is not small in return..."
Zhou Tong had a smile on his face and his eyes were shining, "This is also because I followed Master Jiu. If I hadn't been willing to use a small one, how would such a good thing come from now..."
Therefore, if you really make money, Mo Wenlong’s share is indispensable, and Jiuye’s share is indispensable.
You can not only make money, but also use money to strengthen ties with officials and nobles. Where can you find such a good thing?
Therefore, when taking Master Jiu out, Zhou Tong's attitude towards Mo Wenlong was also very attentive and sincere.
The sky is filled with rays of rays, and the lake is dotted with ripples. Slowly, lights are dotted among them.
Mo Wenlong said at the right moment: "Master Ninth should also take a look at the nightless sky in the south of the Yangtze River."
Master Jiu said nothing, only smiled.
Mo Wenlong was determined and was thinking about how to arrange it. Not far away, a boat with two red lanterns was slowly approaching, and someone stood on the bow of the boat and said, "But Mr. Mo?"
Mo Wenlong narrowed his eyes slightly and turned to look over. His entourage had already taken two steps outside. He must have clearly seen the person coming, so he came to report back.
Master Jiu didn't hear what he said to Mo Wenlong, but looking at Mo Wenlong's expression, he thought it must be...
Zhou Tong has been following Jiu Ye and Mo Wenlong, and tries to speak as little as possible in front of Jiu Ye, giving Mo Wenlong enough time to express himself. But he is always paying attention to Jiu Ye. Now he sees a flash in Jiu Ye's eyes.
After thinking deeply, he immediately understood and quickly answered: "I am a friend of your Excellency, why don't you come up and sit with me?"
Mo Wenlongxin said, what are you going to say at this time?
Regardless of the theory, he just gave the attendant a look and told him to send him away first.
Master Jiu sat down on the chair on the deck, looking very at ease, and looked at the ship that was getting closer and closer. The first thing he saw was the ship's girl. Somehow, in the blink of an eye, there was really a person standing on the deck.
The girl in fluttering white clothes.
Very elegant look.
Of course, even such elegance seems very forced in a place like this. As soon as it appears, you know where it comes from. It looks like a serious boat for traveling on the lake, but who can let the young lady in the family be like this?
He looked away as if nothing had happened, pretending not to see it.
Mo Wenlong was embarrassed. Originally, he felt that although Xi Keju was a brothel, it was better than clean. After staying with them for so long, it could be said that he had never taken the initiative. Even Aunt Bai was just looking at her virginity.
Jing, besides himself, had never seen a foreigner before, otherwise he would not have brought her back to the house.
This guest house in Xixi has a lot of skills, and the girls he trains do have merits. But now that he saw Jin coming over to talk without hesitation, he became wary, fearing that there was a noble person on board.
They knew about it.
He frowned so hard that he could kill a mosquito, and he sneered inwardly.
If you want to come over, come over and ask your followers to talk to them. He even thinks the price has dropped. Anyway, Master Jiu also needs someone to serve him. If they bump into him, it will be them.
Zhou Tong saw this in his eyes and went to look at Master Jiu. Although Master Jiu didn't look this way, he nodded slightly. He immediately whispered to Mo Wenlong: "Sir, are you ready?"
It’s so thoughtful…”
No matter how thoughtful you are, it won't come so quickly.
Mo Wenlong couldn't deny it and just smiled and said nothing.
No one stopped the two boats, and the girl from the opposite side came over from the sampan. But the person who came over was not a person, but a nun leading the way, followed by two others who were among the cardamom.
Girl.
When we got closer, we looked at the beauties under the lamp. It was true that each of the four women had their own beauty.
Especially the woman in front dressed like a woman is extremely rare.
She first blessed Mo Wenlong and said, "Today I went out to pick up this girl. It was her first time going out, and it was her first time seeing the night view of the West Lake. I took her out for a walk, and unexpectedly I met Mr.
…”
Going out for the first time means that you haven't seen any guests yet. I want to say that this girl has not yet stepped through the door, so she is considered extremely clean.
There was a bit of sarcasm on Mo Wenlong's face. Aunt Bai also said the same thing when she first met her. She was indeed an innocent person. But innocence is not just about the body, but also the mind.
He said nothing, obviously disdainful of Sanniang's behavior.
Sanniang, however, was not shocked by the honor or disgrace, she stood with her head lowered and her hands lowered, revealing a section of her fair neck.
When Mo Wenlong saw Master Jiu staring at Sanniang a few more times, he whispered: "This is the mother and girl from Xi Keju. This..." He was referring to Sanniang, "She doesn't accompany guests.
"
Master Jiu pointed to the teapot, "Then let's wait while we wait." Then he pointed to the girl standing behind, "Just play a piece of music and listen to the sound of the water. I think it's not bad..."
Sanniang nodded slightly and stood next to Master Jiu.
Pour tea, pour water, peel nuts and peel fruits, everything is just right.
Jiuye seemed to be listening to the music specifically. He closed his eyes and slapped his palms with a fan, feeling very leisurely.
The music here is just right, and several small boats came close to each other, not too far or too close, without coming forward to disturb us, as if they were just listening to the music.
On one of the awning boats, an old scribe was sitting in the cabin. He squinted his eyes and looked towards the big boat, trying to see clearly who the nobleman Sanniang was serving was.
Sanniang quietly observed the man in front of her, as if she wasn't wary at all.
Whenever she wanted to take the opportunity to chat with him, he could always successfully avoid her and was not interested in her at all.
She blew the skin off the peeled peanuts again, put them on the sweet white porcelain deep-mouthed plate and sent them forward. But she was thinking in her heart that this method would not work. She could not get out any useful information from such contact. It was really...
Very embarrassing.
When he stood up straight, he took out his handkerchief and wiped his sweat. However, when he turned around, he couldn't stand still. He almost grabbed the side of the ship and waved his arms to stand still, but accidentally moved the side.
The lantern on the bed was knocked down and fell into the water. This incident only happened in an instant. By the time everyone came to their senses, Sanniang had already stood firm, slapping her chest with a frightened look, and apologized to Mo Wenlong again.
"It disturbs your enjoyment..."
The lack of a lantern on the boat didn't matter. Mo Wenlong didn't think much about it. He just glanced at Sanniang coldly. This woman, who was in perfect condition before, is now in the same situation.
But Zhou Tong saw that Master Jiu's personal eunuch was very guarded, and he felt a sudden shock in his heart. Then he thought about what Master Jiu had arranged step by step, as if he was just to lure these people into taking the bait.
Just as he was thinking about whether these people were going to be harmful to Lord Jiu, he saw shouts not far away. He turned around and looked over, and was shocked. The boat was on fire, and the fire was fierce and rising in the wind. The men and women on the boat were on fire.
, everyone rushed onto the deck one by one. Those who could swim jumped into the water without hesitation. Those who couldn't swim ran desperately on the deck and shouted for help.
The boats nearby all moved in that direction to see how many people could be rescued.
As the prefect, Mo Wenlong's expression changed. It's different now. In the past, it would be a fire or something, and the government would decide it, and that would be it. But now it's not possible. Once there are casualties, no matter how big or small,
, everything must be reported to the court in detail. How did such a disaster happen? Is the cause clearly investigated? Is there any other hidden story in it? In addition, there are follow-up pensions for the deceased, treatment for the injured, etc., the Civil Affairs Department
They all need to be asked.
The Civil Affairs Department is Mr. Ba’s territory. Is Mr. Ba easy to fool?
Not easy to fool at all.
The Eighth Master may not be too strict with other realms, but he is definitely not strict with Jiangnan. Everyone can understand this. The Eighth Master is avoiding suspicion and wants to let the superiors see that he really has nothing to do with the officialdom of Jiangnan.
.
Now that such a big accident has happened, can he not be anxious? As long as someone dies, I'm sorry, the performance evaluation will definitely be affected.
Therefore, he looked at Master Jiu almost pleadingly, "Master Jiu... we have to save people first..."
Sanniang had already thrown herself on the side of the boat like crazy, shouting names one after another. Mo Wenlong came back to his senses and realized that the one on fire turned out to be Xi Keju.
And the boss of Xi Keju is on his boat at the moment.
"Sanniang..." Mo Wenlong shouted. He had to know how many people were on the boat tonight.
Sanniang's energy at the moment was not at all on his questions, but on the "Jiu Ye" he just called.
Master Jiu?
It turned out to be him!
Sanniang gritted her teeth, it would be much easier for people to ask about what they were asking about. This time the errand was completed, and she could get out of the situation.
She doesn't plan to stay in Hangzhou any longer.
Something seems wrong.
She was just frustrated by Magu before, and the two of them were fighting among themselves, which was contrary to her original idea of coming here. She didn't want to continue to waste time with these idiots here.
That's when this thing happened. If the mission goes well, then think of another way to escape. If it doesn't go well, use the lantern as a signal to set fire over there. The girls on the boat are all good at water, and the loss is only one.
Just a ship.
This loss is nothing to Xi Keju.
But in exchange for it, I can retire with success, and I can deal with the remaining messy things as I please.
But now, after she heard with her own ears that the noble man was Master Jiu, her heart dropped little by little. Her intuition seemed to be right, the situation in Hangzhou was indeed not good.
What matters in the royal family need to be handled secretly?
No! As long as they are willing, everything in the world belongs to them.
Then why come?
Of course a thief would have a guilty conscience, and would worry about being discovered as soon as he heard something was going on. She had this mentality now, feeling that Master Jiu was only after the White Lotus Sect.
After all, two things that happened in the capital had something to do with them. One was the case of Lu Liuliang, and the other was the arrest of Lin Ping.
Since there is no clear explanation for these two things, it is said that a noble person has come to the capital.
Magu still wanted to check on her, and she wanted to take advantage of the situation, but why didn't she think about it, maybe she was here just for them.
She didn't think about it, but she did. After she came back that day, she felt like this in her mind. She couldn't grasp the key point. She even felt that she was a bit disappointed at first, but maybe she had accumulated too much unhappiness, and that's when she came up with it.
Intention of retreat.
Unexpectedly, this step was indeed the right one.
After understanding this, she did not hesitate, stood up suddenly, and jumped from the boat, looking as if she was stimulated and confused and anxious to save people.
No one stopped him, he just plunged into the water and disappeared.
The girl in white was crying, how pitiful she was.
Master Jiu smiled inwardly but kept his face still. He just said to Mo Wenlong: "You are the official of the parents, so naturally I will listen to you in everything."
Mo Wenlong would not stop to save others just because of an old bustard. After all, the people who often go to Xi Keju are acquaintances, and they are acquaintances with status. This cannot be delayed at all.
So the whole boat sailed forward without any hesitation, without hesitation at all.
As for the third lady, who cares whether she wandered away or accidentally ended up sleeping forever in this place with a romantic legend.
"What a cunning woman." On the small awning boat, a six-fingered hand covered his lips, and he let out a violent cough.
Magu stretched out her hand and said, "Don't worry, I have already sent someone to find Sanniang. She is very good at water and nothing will happen to her."
madness!
I haven't seen the doorway clearly yet.
How did Xi Keju catch fire? Why was the fire so fast and violent? It started almost instantly.
Others want to harm them? Everyone who gets on the ship must undergo strict inspection. How could someone get on the ship with a large amount of flammable or even flammable objects? This rule is simply not true.
If this is not the case, then it is the people on the ship who are causing trouble. This is the only explanation.
But there are two situations, one is that Sanniang knows about it, and the other is that she doesn't know about it at all.
Would you be unaware?
If she really didn't know, then the people under her must have turned against her. But to be honest, these girls on Magu's side wanted Magu to die immediately, but Sanniang's side was completely different.
On the contrary, she is the backbone of every girl. She is not forced to do anything, she just does her duty. How can she not make the people below grateful?
Well, even if there is a white-eyed wolf who doesn't know what's good and wants to take revenge on Sanniang. This talented person is bold and has made a lot of preparations without telling Sanniang. But don't forget, Sanniang is just going to do it at this time.
Not on board.
Isn't it a coincidence?
It was a coincidence, as if it had been rehearsed beforehand.
Think about how Sanniang almost fell down on the noble boat for no apparent reason, and the lantern fell into the water for no apparent reason, and then almost the next moment, Xi Keju started to light up.
Sanniang used that lantern to set the fire on fire!
As soon as the signal came out, they immediately took action.
And when the fire breaks out, who cares what happens to the guests? Everyone on the boat, big and small, will be fine anyway. People who make a living on the lake know the lake better than their own backyard.
And Sanniang herself threw herself into the lake...
Is he dead or running away?
Mr. Six-Finger's eyes were full of gloom, and he sang "Escape from the Golden Cicada" under his nose?
Okay, okay! It’s indeed a good thing!
Zheng Jia also praised Lin Yutong after he fished the third lady out of the water.
This woman is very capable.
As soon as Sanniang entered the water, she headed to the place she had agreed to before. When she saw the anchor with a red ribbon hanging underwater, she knew she was the one to pick her up.
As soon as she emerged from the water, the net was all over her head. Before she could curse, the people were already out of the water and they were all completely fished out.
She lay naked on the deck like a fish out of water. After the net on her body was removed, she struggled to wipe the water from her face, pushed her hair back, and twisted the clothes on her clothes.
Water, look up.
I saw that the door of the cabin was open, and the horn lamp was lit inside, which was bright. There was a woman in purple sitting on the rocking chair, holding a book in her hand, and her face could not be seen.
Turning her head again, she saw two rows of people in black standing neatly, and no one gave her any unnecessary looks.
She was shocked, this is not right!
She arranged the secret code of the red ribbon only for the fish guy, and no one except the two of them knew it. The same was true for this location. But now, the fish guy is gone...
This means something is wrong.
The trick he played was discovered by others.
She became frightened in her heart, and when she glanced at the woman again, she became even more frightened. She didn't even know when this person came to Hangzhou again. Falling into the hands of a fellow sect was worse than falling into the hands of the government.
awful.
"I don't know which sister it is." Sanniang stood up on her own and straightened her clothes to make herself look less embarrassed.
Lin Yutong didn't put down the book in his hand. Actually, this story was quite interesting. It said that the White Lady was pressed under the Leifeng Pagoda and chanted sutras every day. The sound of reciting sutras was heard by Bai He in the West Lake.
As time goes by, Bai He also has the heart to follow the Tao...
Just when I saw Bai He turning into a human form at night, dancing on the lake and meeting the scholar, the one over there named Sanniang spoke.
She didn't look up to look anymore, and just said to Wang Jia: "Arrange to wash up, ask for change of clothes, and then bring them over."
After making arrangements, she moved and turned around before looking down again.
The scholar in the storybook was so amazed by Bai He that he fell in love with her and vowed to marry her.
But the girl only appeared at night and could not be found no matter how hard she looked during the day.
For the sake of the girl, he didn't dare to blink. He stayed by the lake every night, just to see where the girl had gone.
Bai He was moved by the scholar's sincerity and transformed into a prototype in front of him, turning into a white lotus swaying in the lake.
The scholar was shocked. He knew that people who were not of the same kind as me could not get married, but he could not help himself, so he became a monk. He became a monk in a place called Xiaoxi Lake. A temple was built by the lake to worship the White Lotus Empress.
The girl from Baihe. It is said that the fireworks in this temple are extremely prosperous, and the marriage lottery is also the most effective.
The story is placed in later generations, and it has no originality at all. It is a bad plot on the street.
But what Lin Yutong found interesting was that she saw the digression.
It’s White Lotus, it’s White Lotus, it’s Little West Lake, it’s temple. Put these together, what does it mean?
She closed the entire book and clicked on the author's name on the cover - Xie Qian.
This name cannot be the real name, but it may not be impossible to find out if it is checked.
She handed the book to Zheng Jia who came in and praised him, "This book is a good one..."
I really didn’t find it. This was a book that was reported to the court by the government and asked to be banned. I always felt that this story had an ulterior motive, so I picked it up separately.
Unexpectedly, the master approved of it very much.
It's just a pity that Xie Qian couldn't find out, and he couldn't find the place where the story was published, so it became an unsolved case for a while. But the more unsolved the case is, the bigger the problems inside it become.
Lin Yutong didn't ask him this. In fact, seeing that he didn't say anything unnecessary, he knew that he didn't find anything useful. "Why don't you go check and see where the Little West Lake is?"
"Could it be the Slender West Lake in Yangzhou?" Zheng Jia asked in a low voice.
Slender West Lake is now far less famous than later generations. Zheng Jia's thinking makes sense.
"Send someone to check first." After all, Yangzhou is also the area hardest hit by the White Lotus Sect's demons. Even if the Slender West Lake over there is not the Little West Lake, maybe we can find out something else.
Thinking of some of the things mentioned in Lin Ping's case, such as temples and nunneries, and then thinking of the temples in the book dedicated to the White Lotus Empress, it seemed that everything could be matched.
Zheng Jia responded, and the two of them put the code aside in advance and only talked about what was in front of them.
"Have people been brought here?" Lin Yutong glanced towards the deck outside and saw that Sanniang was standing calmly as expected. Without waiting for Zheng Jia's reply, he said, "Bring her in."
When Sanniang was brought in, she found that the woman was still looking at her, her face still covered. She turned her face to look at Zheng Jia again, feeling as if she had seen this person before somewhere.
Lin Yutong closed the book with a snap, turned the cover upward, and shook it in his hand, "Sit down. You don't have to be so polite."
Sanniang was startled, and quickly turned around. When she met Lin Yutong's eyes, she was stunned for a moment, then looked at Lin Yutong seriously, then smiled fiercely, then sat down very naturally, and said nothing.
Li Li's wrinkle-free clothes, with a bit of sarcasm on his face, said, "It's really well thought out. I wonder which line this senior sister is from? Which hall did she work in before? Last time I went to my little sister's creek.
I'm a guest, and my senior sister doesn't reveal her identity, so I'm being very careless."
Lin Yutong was stunned for a moment and smiled inwardly. It seemed that most of the White Lotus Sect was run by women. This is relatively rare nowadays. So when he saw a woman in charge, and under many coincidences, his first thought was that she was being
My colleague was caught.
This is different from what Lin Yutong expected before, but it doesn't matter much.
She neither denied nor admitted, but asked: "Why are you running?"
"I said that I was just rushing to save people but was swept away by the water. I guess senior sister didn't believe it either. If you don't believe it, I have nothing to say." Sanniang poured the tea and held it in her hand with a look on her face.
He looked like he didn't want to talk more.
Lin Yutong placed the book flat on his knees and moved his fingers on it, seeming a little bored and a little anxious.
Sanniang kept paying attention to Lin Yutong from the corner of her eye, and her attention was involuntarily attracted by her movements. When her eyes fell on the book, she narrowed her eyes slightly, and then turned away as if nothing had happened.
She didn't realize it herself, but her hand holding the teacup was faintly straining.
Lin Yutong's heart moved. She knew this man named Xie Qian. Not only did she know him, but she was also very familiar with him.
This can be considered an unexpected gain.
She still didn't speak, and she kept making mistakes. She just let the boat sail along the water in the dark night, but her hands kept moving on the book. Sometimes she was holding it forward, sometimes holding it backwards, and sometimes she was picking up the pages of the book.
There was a lot of clattering, but he just looked at the other person with a half-smile and didn't say a word.
When Sanniang's eyes fell on the cover again, she turned away suddenly as if she had been pricked by a needle, "It's because he refused to let me go. I knew it..."
Lin Yutong placed the book heavily on the small table beside him and chuckled, "Then you are still running?"
"What's the point if I don't run!" Sanniang stood up immediately, "Why don't I run and wait for the government to pick up the person?"
"Take someone?" Lin Yutong looked puzzled, thinking that the news had leaked, it shouldn't have happened. This time it was very secretive. If you can't keep it secret even here, then what secrets does the Qing Dynasty have?
.
Sanniang's face softened a bit, "I think the situation is a bit bad when it comes to taking people. Don't ask why, I just feel something is wrong. Besides, we always feel that we hide it well, but we don't know that others are not fools. Just say that.
"Xikeju." She glanced at the script again, and then laughed sarcastically, "I really think that I am so talented, but others can't know what he knows so easily. Why should I call it Xikeju? Xike is another name for Lian.
I don’t believe that no one knows except him..."
Lin Yutong secretly noted that Xie Qian was a frustrated scholar, but his status seemed to be higher than that of Sanniang and others. She looked displeased, with a bit of anger, "But after all these years, no one has exposed it, right?
?"
hehe!
"No one exposed it, shouldn't it be my credit?" Sanniang's face turned cold, "What? This has also become his credit?"
Lin Yutong lowered his eyelids, "Why are they so clearly distinguished?"
Sanniang sneered at Lin Yutong, "You really think you are the incarnation of Bailian, and all of you have become empresses who save people from misery. I am the only one who is vicious..."
"Isn't it?" Lin Yutong's eyes sharpened, "There are so many innocent lives on the ship..." At this point, Sanniang's expression changed slightly and she looked over. Lin Yutong was shocked, this woman is so perceptive.
The next words she spoke rolled her tongue and said: "Although his death has little to do with us, it has made the matter worse. This is actively provoking the court. You did such a thing when you knew that there was a noble person.
,Have you ever thought about Magu?”
