Chapter fifty-seven

go north

In the market, a few boys in dirty clothes shuttled among the crowd, and when they found the tooth shop, the children sneaked into the crowd with their small bodies.

"My lord, is there any work?"

Ju pinched the brush in his hand without raising his head: "No, get out!"

Several children waved their hands and shook their heads, then got out of the crowd and ran away.

The assassin raised his head and frowned, but before he had time to think about it, he was disturbed by the people who came to work.

"The heat is in full swing, why are there so many people coming to the market recently?" Nahan, who was registering beside him, said, "Da Niu?"

The assassin raised his eyebrows, and stuffed the pen and paper into the other person's arms, "I'm urgent, please help me take care of one or two." Then he left in a hurry.

"Hey"

The assassin quickly chased after the talented child, walked through the streets and alleys, and chased into a secluded alleyway.The child suddenly stopped at the end of the alley, looked back cautiously, turned over and hid behind the wall, took out the dagger from his arms, exposed the silver and bright dagger and pointed it at the end of the alley.

The child has long since disappeared!

After staying for a few breaths, the assassin rushed towards the end of the alley, but was almost knocked down by the crowd that suddenly appeared from the other end of the alley.

"Who!" The assassin grabbed the man's hand like a tiger!

"Master, please spare me!" The visitor wailed continuously, and instantly broke out in cold sweat from the pain.

Ju: "Beggar? Have you seen that kid just now?"

The beggar fainted from the pain and limp against the wall.

"Go!" Ju threw away his hands viciously, and was about to chase after him, when he heard an uproar in the market.

"It's over!" Ju turned around, his face turning blue.

I saw a woman in Tsing Yi standing at the end of the alley, wearing a veil and looking at him.

The assassin turned around without a trace, trying to escape from the other side of the alley.

He turned around, and behind him, Ji Si was leaning against the wall with a bunch of candied haws in his hand, the veil on his face fluttering in the wind.

"You—" Ju said angrily.

Ji Si and Jin Xiu looked at each other, "Follow me."

Several strangers walked into the tooth shop of the market, each carrying a cloth bag with paper and pens on their waists, and one of them stood at the end and shouted, "Jiangnan Liu's family is recruiting workers, 20 Wen per person per day, and one meal for lunch.Visitors register."

The crowd was in an uproar, and the workers who had been clamoring around the dental clinic just now changed their targets.

"Jiangnan Liu's family?"

"What are you going to do?"

Everyone asked incessantly.

The visitor said: "A batch of new grain will be sent away from Jiangnan, find someone to move the grain!"

"Where's Brother Ju?" A skinny man stood outside the crowd and looked around, "Brother Ju?"

"My lord, twenty-one coins, is it dangerous to go here? How long will it take?" Someone asked loudly.

Merchants from Jiangnan came to Jiangbei to recruit workers, and immediately attracted countless people from the market.

The broker who was originally recruiting workers in the market was furious, "Isn't this stealing business! You recruited all the people away? My employers are still waiting to hire people!"

The two sides pushed and shoved, and many people gathered to watch the excitement. The later broker smiled and said nothing, and stuffed a silver dollar into the man's hand, "The Liu family is waiting for a servant, brother let me wait to recruit some quick-witted people, is it possible?"

The Jiangbei broker weighed the money in his hand, and immediately stopped talking nonsense.

"What should I do?" In the crowd, two assassins pretending to be coolies were discussing.

Another person said: "I don't see you, do you want to go?"

Brokers stand at the highest point, picking and choosing among the people crowded in the crowd.Don't be fat, don't be thin, don't be weak, don't be eating too much.

Everyone: "..."

"I can't go." The assassin said, ready to turn and leave with his companions.

"You, you, and you, come here!"

"Over there, turn around!"

The stopped assassin: "..."

next morning

"Assassins take advantage of their brokers to place these people in teahouses, wharves, and inns, and often replace them with eyesight and place them in the Jiangbei hub. If there is any change in Jiang Prefecture, it will be difficult to avoid assassins with sharp eyes and ears." Ji Si nodded.names on the roster.

Qin Jun asked: "Take away the leader of them, and then what?"

Ji Si said: "Insert our people again, and Li Daitao will hold on to the main roads at the foot of Junshan."

"Have you arranged for the other assassins?" Qin Jun asked while combing her hair.

Ji Si said: "You don't need to transfer all of them, you can knock a few out at random and throw them unconscious on the side of the road, and they will be able to mess themselves up."

Qin Jun nodded, suddenly remembered something, and said, "I went to the market yesterday, did you hear anything?"

Ji Si slowed down a bit, and said, "The Hu people are shaking, and hundreds of thousands of refugees are coming to the frontier."

"Cough!" Qin Jun coughed continuously, "When did it happen!"

Ji Si: "The scholars in the tea shop said that the Hu people's Khan blocked the news, and it has been a month and a half since the Hu ground earthquake."

Qin Jun clutched her chest, her face flushed because of the persistent cough, "cough cough cough! Go to the palace and see my grandfather!"

Ji Si looked displeased.

Qin Jun was slightly angry: "Let's go!"

Ji Si: "Here."

All the way from the villa to Jiangbei Palace, Qin Jun's face was very ugly.

"The lord and the lord have gone to the government to discuss matters." The butler served hot tea and said respectfully, "The wangfei and his wife are receiving the bachelors who are going south, and they will come later."

Qin Jun's face was pale, she took a sip to relieve herself for a while, and asked, "Bachelor?"

The butler cupped his hands, saluted and exited the side hall.

Qin Jun put down the teacup, motioned to Ji Si and said, "Go find a soldier."

Ji Si nodded, and went to the door to arrest a mansion soldier and make him kneel down.

Qin Jun: "Who is receiving in the main hall?"

Fubing: "Miss, forgive me..."

Ji Si: "Speak directly if you have something to say."

The mansion soldier raised his eyes and glanced at Ji Si, then immediately lowered his head in fear, "...the lord ordered that you must not tell the young lady about everything in the mansion..."

Qin Jun pouted towards Ji Si, and Ji Si held her lips, and drew a soft sword from her waist.

Fubing: "..."

"Sir, you've been tired all the way, but you can stay at Jiangbei's family for a few days, and wait for the prince to come back before hosting a banquet..." Mrs. Zhao smiled flatteringly, paused, then turned her head and pulled away Mrs. Zhou's hand impatiently.

Mrs. Zhou was anxious, and whispered: "Grandpa, that one is still in the side hall, mother-in-law, how can I leave...to hang out!"

Mrs. Zhao turned her head with a smile, and while Yun Xuan was drinking tea, she spoke quickly and in a low voice: "I don't see you coming back once a month, why should I go to receive him when I come here! Besides, I'm busy right now—"

"Is the princess in a hurry?" On the guest seat, a middle-aged man in dusty clothes with a refined face said with a smile, "Yun Xuan is going on the road after drinking this cup of tea, and the princess can go to work as much as she can."

Mrs. Zhao said anxiously: "Hey, don't be busy, sir, you must wait until the prince comes back—"

"You can't go in the main hall for meeting guests." At the door, the porter boy said urgently.

Mrs. Zhao looked up, and saw Ji Si approaching as if there was no one else around. The servant did not dare to stop her, and waited for Ji Si to walk to the gate before shouting anxiously.

At the entrance of the main hall, Ji Si gracefully turned towards Zhao Shifu, then looked at the man in the guest seat, and said, "Princess Six, Master, please go to the small seat."

Zhao: "..."

Yun Xuan was invited to the side hall, Qin Jun put down the teacup in his hand, and walked down the main seat slowly, "I heard that Yun Xuan is a great Confucian who has traveled all over the world. When I saw him today, he really has extraordinary bearing."

Yun Xuan bowed to Qin Jun, knelt down and kowtowed, although he made such a grand salute, he was neither humble nor overbearing, "Meet the sixth princess."

Qin Jun nodded, forced a smile, and asked: "Sir..." Qin Jun wanted to say something, but didn't know what to say. She looked at Yun Xuan several times before hesitating to speak, looked at him curiously, and secretly speculated about him.

In the book, Yun Xuan is a legendary prince from the old dynasty. After the country was ruined and his family was destroyed, he traveled all over the world. Because of his profound knowledge, he could get preferential treatment from local officials or the emperor of the current dynasty wherever he went. It is said among the people that after his death,Can be transformed into a saint, and can see the past and future before death.

Yun Xuan was full of smiles, no wrinkles at the end of his eyes, but his temperament was like the dusk of the evening.

When Qin Jun looked at him, there was always an illusion of being seen through.The face became darker, because the image did not come from a book she had read, but a rumor that the sixth princess had heard since she was a child.Qin Jun is gradually forgetting the content of the book, and if she doesn't concentrate on it, she often can't remember it.

"The princess complexion is not good, Yun Xuan can give you the pulse." Yun Xuan said, looking at Qin Jun's side Ji Si with a smile.

Ji Si: "No."

Yun Xuan: "It's enough to signal the pulse, nothing else."

Ji Si narrowed her eyes slightly, and a cold light flashed across her face: "Mr. is a traveling bachelor and also knows medicine?"

Yun Xuan: "When you go out and encounter snakes, insects, rats and ants, you can always deal with them one or two."

Qin Jun pursed her lips and raised her wrist. Ji Si pulled a silk handkerchief to cover Qin Jun's wrist, and then gestured to Yun Xuan.

Yun Xuan stepped forward, pressed Qin Jun's pulse, and asked casually, "Why did the princess come to Jiangbei?"

Qin Jun said casually, "I'm here to play, how about you?"

"Guided by the way of heaven, let's take a look at the outsiders." Yun Xuan laughed.

Qin Jun's eyebrows twitched, and she wanted to withdraw her hand, but for some reason, her right hand seemed to be hung with a heavy weight, and she couldn't move at all.

"I can't understand what you say, sir, where did you come from?" Qin Jun asked.

Yun Xuan: "Beyond the Eternal Border."

Ji Si stood aside with her arms folded, looking at Yun Xuan.

Qin Jun asked: "Hudi...how are the people in Hudi?"

Yun Xuan: "The corpses are strewn all over the field, it's a miserable scene."

Ji Si: "The diagnosis is over, let's relax."

Yun Xuan: "Not yet."

Qin Jun: "..."

"The fate of the world is changeable, and it cannot be reversed by manpower. When there is extreme governance, there will be chaos, and when there is prosperity, there will be decline. Does the princess know what this is talking about?" Yun Xuan said.

Qin Jun couldn't help interrupting Shengsheng, frowning: "Zhou Yiyun said that chaos must be ruled, but Mr. said that chaos must be ruled?"

Yun Xuan arched both hands towards Qin Jun, and said: "The prosperity and decline, the decline and the rule, are like the change of dynasties. It is not easy to talk about it for thousands of years. It is not necessarily a good thing if you don't restore the rule and return to prosperity, and the cycle goes back and forth."

Ji Si: "What kind of machine strike, withdraw."

Qin Jun pursed her lips: "I don't understand."

Yun Xuan smiled slowly: "The world is not the world of the Qin and Zhou dynasties."

Qin Jun pressed her lips with the tip of her teeth, and clenched her other hand hidden under her sleeve, "Qin Zhou has been at peace for a hundred years, so it may not be impossible for him to be in peace for a long time."

Finally, Ji Si couldn't bear it anymore, flicked her sleeve, and threw a cup with all her internal strength to hit Yun Xuan's wrist.

Sheng Sheng let go of Qin Jun suddenly, Shi Shi ran back and stood aside respectfully with his head bowed.

Qin Jun: "How?"

Yun Xuan shook his head and said, "I can't see any symptoms."

Ji Si frowned: "What do you mean?"

Xing Sheng: "Cut the pulse, it's the princess's heart, the princess was so upset just now, I'm afraid she thinks that something is right."

Qin Jun was furious for a moment, her expression slightly cracked.

"Yun Xuan." Ji Si said coldly, drawing a soft sword from her waist and pointing it at Yun Xuan's neck.

Yun Xuan was able to bend and stretch, and immediately lifted up his robe and knelt down to beg for mercy, "Princess, calm down."

"North of Qin and Zhou, a wolf is waiting for an opportunity to go south."

Qin Jun's fingers trembled slightly, the teacup fell, and the green tea spilled all over the floor."You mean..."

Qin Jun couldn't stop thinking about it. She remembered that in the book "Princess's Revenge", the barbarian's sudden attack was not without warning, but she forgot or couldn't remember clearly.

Now it seems that it may be related to this disaster.

Yun Xuan: "The earthquake outside the pass has caused heavy losses to the Hu people. I fear that this year they will not be able to survive the winter safely. Someone in the clan must have proposed to go south to fight for support for the clansmen after the disaster."

Ji Si looked at Qin Jun: "If you go south, the first pass is Junshan."

Qin Jun lowered her eyebrows: "The ground is trembling, if they want to send troops, the soldiers, horses, food and grass will definitely be unsustainable. How could it be..."

Ji Si said: "The Hu land is adjacent to the Yue country, whether it is borrowing troops or an alliance."

Yun Xuan smiled inscrutablely, and said: "A certain person came to Hu from Yue, and once heard that Rong Lie, the lord of the Yue people, once hunted with Hu Ren Khan.Ren Khan's army is making a dangerous move. When the defenses of the surrounding countries are relaxed, they will go south."

Qin Jun couldn't sit still anymore, and walked back and forth in the front hall with a pale face: "The time has been advanced by more than a year, why? I have already left Capital, and have never participated in the national fortune...Why is it still advanced..."

"Calm down!" Ji Si locked Qin Jun's shoulders, looked directly at Qin Jun's panicked expression, and couldn't help being surprised, "What's wrong?"

Qin Jun: "I..."

The fact that the Hu people went south should have happened a year later, that is, Qin and Hu Chan fought for more than a year. That year, Sixth Princess and Seventeen were planning to marry her son-in-law, and the marriage was ruined by moving the capital.

After moving the capital, in the midsummer of that year, the sixth princess was eighteen. At that time, the flowers and leaves of Central Capital withered, Xi Jiang sent envoys to marry the sixth princess. In the same year, the princess died in the country.

Based on such calculations, how could the barbarians send troops before the winter of this year? Now, Qin Jun is only fifteen, and all the timelines have moved forward again by one year!

Qin Jun said: "If what you mean is that you can't stop Rong Yanlie from visiting the Hu people, it will be too late when he persuades the Hu people to send troops and attack Qin and Zhou!"

Yun Xuan: "It's too late. I came to Jiangbei to tell the princess that destiny has long been arranged. Even if you plan everything, it's just self-defeating. Everything will be on the right track again."

Qin Jun's face turned blue in an instant.

"Enough." Ji Si said, and ordered the guards to come in and hold Yun Xuan up and throw him out of the palace.

Zhao screamed outside the door, and invited Yun Xuan to the main hall in fear.

Yun Xuan patted the hem of his clothes, smiled and cupped his hands: "Yun Xuan should go..."

The sound outside the door gradually faded and then disappeared.

Qin Jun frowned: "He's right."

"Capital will definitely deal with it." Ji Si said.

"If you want to resist the invasion of the Hu people, you must recruit soldiers." Qin Jun frowned and thought deeply, and said slowly, "But Jindi and the Yuan people are constantly in conflict, and the group of officers and soldiers in Beijing who are greedy for comfort may not be able to recruit troops."

Qin Jun: "Once the army is conscripted, the tax will be increased, and the local aristocratic families are not willing."

"Conscription, tax increase, and separation of wives and children are not what His Majesty wants to see." Ji Si squatted at Qin Jun's feet, and gently touched her knees with her forehead to express her comfort.

Qin Jun: "Do you know him?"

Ji Si said: "The method of using troops can always show a person's nature. I think that the leader of a country is also a human being. The government orders he implements and the national policies he promulgates must also show one or two personalities."

Qin Jun's eyes were blank.

Ji Si said: "Your Majesty grants Enke, exempts corvee, reduces expenses and allocates funds for disasters. He is a wise king."

"That's because..." Qin Jun said in a hoarse voice, "Seven years ago, he killed all the princes' sons who were over fourteen years old in Taixue... and in the next few years, although the father and emperor treated the people with kindness and kindness, although he won the hearts of the people, it was inevitableI lost my heart."

At night, Qin Jun stayed in the palace and did not wait for either Li Yezhen or Li Yuechuan.

A figure appeared outside the curtain, Jin Xiu: "Princess, it's time to rest."

Qin Jun raised her arms, and Ji Si took off her outer clothes.Qin Jun said: "Even if he wants to conscript, the government will not go as he wishes."

Ji Si: "What should I do?"

Qin Jun said helplessly, "I want money and people."

Ji Si nodded, with an expression of indifference, and said, "Go to sleep."

Qin Jun: "..."

Qin Jun was restless and couldn't fall asleep. She lay down with Ji Si and gradually fell asleep in the middle of the night.Early the next morning, Li Yezhen and Li Yuechuan still failed to return to the palace.

"Jiangbei is going to send troops to the Eternal Border. The refugees have entered the customs. They need to send people to resettle those refugees."

In the past few days, the refugees entered the customs, and the news finally seemed to have wings, flying to every corner of Qin and Zhou.

Scholars talked about Qin Bian's strategy in restaurants and teahouses, and there were mixed opinions about Qin Bian's mobilization of troops from various places to invoke the Eternal Border.

Qin Jun nestled in Ji Si's arms and stayed in the restaurant all day. After hearing enough, she went back to Yanyun Villa with her.

Just as Qin Jun returned to the villa, Jin Xiu greeted her from the door. After saluting her, she handed over a letter from a barbarian: "The dark guards got rid of the assassin in Qutang, and quickly sent the letter back."

Qin Jun opened it, and it was obvious that there was an order from Hu Shang.

Jin Xiu handed over a bundle, and took out two wooden boxes. She opened one of the boxes, and inside was a bank note from the Central Plains Bank: "This is the fixed silver."

Ji Si took the other box, opened it, and froze in place.

"Finally there is some good news. How is it? Are you alright?" Qin Jun asked with a smile.

With a slightly hoarse voice, Ji Si said, "It's fine."

In the wooden box, lay a snow lotus, the whole body was snow white, the petals were as thin as wings, shimmering.

Qin Jun's eyes were bright, and after looking at it, he said, "Give it to the Uncle King and ask him to use it as medicine."

Jin Xiu nodded and signaled Ji Si to take care of it: "There is a prescription in the box. This 50-year-old snow lotus can relieve the burning pain of cold poison for half a year. After taking it, you can turn it into once every 30 days if you get sick every ten days."

"Thank you," Ji Si saluted Qin Jun with a calm face, unable to see how happy she was, "The slave is gone."

After the person left, Jin Xiu took out another black arrow tip from her sleeve and handed it to Qin Jun.

Qin Jun: "What is this?"

Jin Xiu: "The dark guards are in Yanbian, they were attacked by those assassins."

Qin Jun: "I guess I can't find the person I'm looking for, and the matter has been revealed."

Jin Xiu: "The person they are looking for is..."

"Hush," Qin Jun signaled Jin Xiu to silence, "You already knew? Don't say it."

Jin Xiu frowned: "Here."

Qin Jun looked at the villa, the mountains in the distance had cleared the clouds, Jiangbei was entering autumn, and the beautiful scenery appeared in the mountains, she murmured: "Don't tell anyone, you go to do something."

Jin Xiu leaned close to Qin Jun, bowed her head to listen to her whisper, but before she could, her face became slightly condensed: "Here."

Qin Jun unfolded the Huren orders and copied them on different papers.Call Xiaotao: "You buy these goods from the library on weekdays and carry them. If you don't have enough, send people to various places to buy them. It will take half a month at the latest to prepare them all."

Xiaotao: "No."

Qin Jun: "Ask someone to go to the back mountain and tell Jiang Chaosheng that starting today, I will start making salt all night without sleep."

Villa Dungeon.

Ju was tied to a stone pillar, and there was no water for three days and three nights.

Jin Xiu ate and drank heavily on a table in front of the stone pillar, tore off a chicken leg, waved it in front of Ju, slowly approached Ju's lips and nose and slowly moved it away.

Ju: "..."

Jin Xiu reached out to remove the rag from Ju's mouth, motioning for him to speak.

Assassin Ju sneered: "I'm not flying, tricks are useless to me, even if you starve to death, you don't want to know a single word." After saying that, he was about to bite his tongue to kill himself, but Jin Xiu blocked his mouth before he could prevent it.

Ju: "..."

Jin Xiu nodded, retreated to the table, and started to eat slowly.

After repeating this for nearly ten days, Ju was already so skinny that Jin Xiu asked her every day, but she got the same answer.

Qin Jun was checking the salt sent to the Eternal Border in the study, and said, "He is tough than Fei."

Jin Xiu said: "Go to torture."

Qin Jun: "..."

"No, no, no," Qin Jun rubbed the goosebumps on his forearm, thinking of the punishment book he had read with Ji Si, his feet softened, "Go and tell him..."

At night, after Jin Xiu finished his meal, before the meal started recently, he just asked him if he had anything to say. After Shi Ran finished eating, Jin Xiu searched all of them.

Ju was so hungry that he had no strength left, his lips were covered with dead skin, and he looked at Jin Xiu half-dead, with a powerless and slightly puzzled expression.

Jin Xiu said: "Master said, you are not afraid of death, why don't you let me slowly starve to death. I have accepted your dagger, token, and clothes. I will have the honor to meet Nalan Cuo in the future.Ask him carefully why he has sent assassins to the capital several times, are you looking for them? Then these things will be evidence in the future, just like that painting."

Ju was instantly enraged, his pupils widened, and he stared at Jin Xiu suddenly.

Jin Xiu took all of Ju's belongings away, and behind him, the assassin Ju let out roars.

"You can't spare his life." In the darkness, Ji Si slowly appeared, her shadow imprinted under the moonlight.

Jin Xiu came out of the dungeon and looked at Ji Si without saying a word.

Ji Si took out the soft sword from her waist: "I'll go."

Jin Xiu frowned, and suddenly wanted to kill, "How much have you heard?"

Ji Si put away the soft sword in confusion, took a step forward, and looked at Jin Xiu defenselessly: "What?"

Jin Xiu let out a sigh of relief, at this distance, if Ji Si didn't defend herself, she would take it down with one blow.

Ji Si frowned: "What?"

"Nothing." Jin Xiu said, turned around and closed the stone prison and the jack mechanism, locked the iron door, and put the key in her sleeve.

Ji Si: "I don't know there is such a place in the villa yet."

Jin Xiu: "Nurse Tian said it. If you're curious, I'll take you to see it next time."

Ji Si frowned slightly, and said, "I said just now that he must be killed."

The two walked side by side, Jin Xiu remained silent.

Ji Si: "It's only when you let Fei fly that you attract this bunch of assassins, and if you let it go again, it's even more annoying."

Jin Xiu: "The princess knows it well."

Ji Si stopped talking, her gaze coldly glanced at the items in Jin Xiu's arms.

Jin Xiu: "You don't need to tell me, I will handle it myself."

The two went back to the East Wing, Xing'er turned out from behind the screen wall holding the water basin, and was quite surprised to see the two of them, "Aren't you with the princess?"

Jin Xiu and Ji Si were immediately startled, "Where did she go?"

back mountain.

At the salt room, Qin Jun went to find Jiang Chaosheng with a jar of good wine.

"You girl," Jiang Chaosheng was drunk, "you tripped me!"

Qin Jun filled Jiang Chaosheng's wine glass, "Master..."

Jiang Chaosheng said angrily: "Then I, the people of Jiangzhou, have salt to eat!"

Qin Jun touched his nose and couldn't help but feel guilty. When he lied to Jiang Chaosheng to dig a well to make salt, he promised the old man that the salt could not be sold to the people of Jiang Prefecture at a high price. Who knows that Qin Jun never planned to sell the salt domestically!

Jiang Chaosheng pointed at Qin Jun's nose: "Bastard!"

Qin Jun said with a guilty conscience, "Don't worry, when I make money, I will set up a small shed in Jiang Prefecture for the purpose of making good fortune, and give salt to the people."

Jiang Chaosheng was slightly stunned, his face was full of wrinkles, and the arrogant old man who was usually defiant showed a bit of dullness, "I have only heard of porridge, what does it mean to put salt?"

Qin Jun smiled, got up, and unfolded the map in his arms by candlelight.

When footsteps sounded, Ji Si breathed a sigh of relief, "Why are you running around?"

Qin Jun looked up and smiled at her.

Ji Si asked, "What are you thinking?"

Qin Jun pushed open the door of the salt room, and there were several hills piled up inside. The salt was crystal clear, reflecting the light of stars under the weak candlelight on one side.

Qin Jun passed through the salt grains as fine as white snow with five fingers, and said, "I don't know if it will be safe to mix so much salt in Aunt Liu's caravan."

Ji Si: "Send some people to follow."

Qin Jun nodded and turned to look at the map, "Aunt Liu's caravan only goes here, and the road behind is alone. If there are officers and soldiers who go by land, it's not good if they are interrogated. If they go by water, there are water bandits. It's a little bad luck."What if the boat capsizes?"

In the salt room, a simple map hangs on the wall.There are two roads from Jiangnan North to Yanbian marked on it.

The water bandits in Qin and Zhou Dynasties were in trouble. heard that there were frequent floods in the previous year, which made the water bandits stronger. The water bandits are cunning and complicated in distribution, not to mention it is difficult to eliminate them.Throwing away the corpse and destroying the traces made it difficult for the government to track down.

Ji Si suddenly said, "I'll go."

Qin Jun was slightly stunned: "What?"

Ji Si smiled, and lightly brushed the ear hair on Qin Jun's forehead with her fingers, "Leave March for now, and clear the way for the princess to do business."

Clearing this road is indeed cheaper for future business, but...

"Too, too sudden," Qin Jun faltered, his mind was in a moment of confusion, "You let me think about it."

Ji Si: "Jin Xiu will stay here to protect you."

"But..." Qin Jun pursed her lips.

"It's fine for me to stay, but I can't stay in the palace for the princess, and I can't control the guards and soldiers all over the mountain." Ji Si said with a smile.

Qin Jun: "..."

At night, in the salt room, Jiang Chaosheng was sleeping soundly on a rattan chair outside the door. A mountain of salt with a height of more than a dozen barrels was being secretly transported to the carriage parked at the foot of the mountain under the moonlight.

Ji Si: "The slave has gone."

Qin Jun stood under the horse, holding on to the reins of the Xuan stallion without raising his head.

Jin Xiu came holding a torch, "Princess."

Ji Si leaned over, lifted Qin Jun's chin, and kissed her lightly on the lips.

Qin Jun sighed, let go of the reins, and said, "Back in peace."

Ji Si smiled, straightened her upper body, and clamped the horse's belly forcefully, "The slave is gone."

Qin Bian dispatched fifteen secret guards, Qin Jun assigned five to Ji Si, and fifty villa guards transferred twenty.

Everyone pretended to be Jiangnan rice merchants and Aunt Liu's northbound caravan converged, exited from the official road, Jiangnan detoured from Central Capital, and after leaving Central Capital, the two caravans separated. Ji Si led people to walk by water through Qutang, and left Bingzhou for reuse.Pass the customs documents and go to the Eternal Border to trade with Hu merchants. If everything goes well, it will be enough to go to March.

Qin Jun let out a sigh of relief, and while Ji Si was away, she could make other arrangements.

The carriage disappeared into the sky. After Jin Xiu whispered to a secret guard who came to report, she said to Qin Jun, "He's gone."

Qin Jun was taken aback for a moment, then nodded in a daze, "Contain the body and send it to Jiang Prefecture, those assassins will return to Xi Jiang with the news of his death."

Jin Xiu: "Here."
