Chapter 391 Crisis (2)
So at this moment Xiao Beiye was very tormented, partly hoping to catch Ning Jing and the others, partly hoping not to catch them.

There was another ship approaching ahead, and the general beside him was about to lead someone to check it. Unexpectedly, Xiao Beiye stopped it with a wave of his hand, and led several figures onto the ship himself.

"Let me check this ship."

Several boatmen on the big boat immediately looked at each other when they saw Xiao Beiye, Prince Gong's son of Xixue, leading his people to check in person.

In front of the cabin door on the second floor of the big ship, a subordinate who was staring at the mouth of the river stepped into the cabin on the second floor and reported: "Master, Xiao Beiye brought people on board to check it himself."

Qian San and Yunran were calm, they hadn't changed much, so just come, they are afraid that they won't succeed.

Although Ning Jing in the cabin was a little nervous before, seeing Yun Ran and Qian San's calmness made him feel at peace.

Yun Ran glanced at him, finally let go of her heart, looked at Qian San and said, "Sir, let's go out and have a look."

"it is good."

On the bow of the big ship, there was a round table and a chair, Xiao Beiye leaned casually, and the men on one side carefully poured tea and served it to the son of the world. The service was thoughtful and attentive, and Xiao Beiye stretched out his hand to take it. Putting down the teacups, he ordered the boatmen standing in front of the bow: "Call everyone on this boat."

One of the four or five boatmen responded, and walked quickly inside, shouting as he walked, "Master, Madam, Miss, the official has checked, and asked everyone to come down for inspection, everyone has come down."

Qian San, Yun Ran and Ning Jing came down from above, as did the accompanying guards on the boat. Everyone stood on the cabin together, with Qian San at the head, Yun Ran and Ning Jing behind, and Qian San Respectfully stepped forward and clasped fists: "My lord, we are merchants in Yingzhou. We shipped a batch of tea to Beijing, and brought a batch of silk back to Yingzhou."

"Win the state?"

Xiao Beiye's expression was light, a pair of deep and sharp pupils swept over Qian San, Yunran and others, and finally landed on the boatman and guards behind him, seemingly carelessly, but in fact he did not ignore any small details, a pair of The sharp eyes swept over several people like a sharp edge. Those who were swept by him, without exception, did not panic, and quickly lowered their heads. It was obvious that they were extremely afraid of him. Not only the boatman and the guards were a little uneasy, Even the leading boatman was a little uneasy, rubbing his hands from time to time, everything seemed normal. When have these merchants seen such a battle, it is normal to be afraid.

Xiao Beiye withdrew his gaze, took a sip of tea slowly, and waved his hand to order his subordinates: "Check the cargo on the ship."

"Yes, sir."

Two or three of his subordinates left in response to the sound, and searched the big boat neatly. Qian San cooperatively raised his head and looked to the back, pleading guilty repeatedly: "My lord, what we ship is really silk, and the tea we sell is also official. Dao, there is no wrongdoing, this is a government document."

The buying and selling of tea and salt must have official documents, otherwise it will be considered as a sale, and if caught, it will be a felony.

Xiao Beiye reached out to take the document from Qian San's hand, it was indeed issued by the government, and handed it to Qian San one by one.

His eyes swept casually, and he saw the beautiful woman behind Qian San, and he couldn't help being a little surprised. He didn't expect that such a strong man would have such an elegant and beautiful woman, which was surprising. Xiao Beiye's eyes slightly He narrowed his eyes and pointed at Yun Ran behind him: "Come here."

Yun Ran came out neither humble nor overbearing, and gave a respectful salute.

"who are you?"

"Returning to the official, the woman is from the Qiao family in Yingzhou. Her ancestors lived in Yingzhou. My father is a teacher at Baihe College in Yingzhou. He married my husband and now has a daughter."

Yunran spoke in a neither humble nor overbearing manner, dignified and polite, Xiao Beiye looked at it twice, and sighed in his heart, he did not expect that the daughter of a teacher from a small place like Yingzhou was no worse than everyone's lady, he looked at this Madam thought of You Qingyan, the young lady of the You family, not only arrogant and domineering, but also clueless. It is really ridiculous that such a person wants to marry him as a wife. Doesn't the father know that this woman is useless? Why? To let her marry him clearly has ulterior motives.

Xiao Beiye was a little annoyed at the thought of this, and his thoughts were not on Yunran in front of him, Yunran secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Several of Xiao Beiye's subordinates came over and quickly reported: "Master, the boat is indeed filled with silk produced in Huaifang, our capital."

"Well, is there anything else?"

Xiao Beiye asked nonchalantly, several of his subordinates nodded, he pointed to two boatmen and two guards, and ordered his several guards: "Self-examine these people separately, and then unify the caliber to see what they are Is there a flaw in what you said?"

After Xiao Beiye finished speaking, several of his subordinates took orders, brought two boatmen, and two guards went down to question alone.

On the bow, Qian San and Yunran's eyes darkened. Xiao Beiye was really shrewd. Fortunately, Qian San's subordinates were summoned earlier to unify their caliber. Xiao Beiye is not a man of false fame, but he has Prince Gong Xiao Zhan on his head, which makes him unable to use his hands and feet. Otherwise, this guy's achievements will not be lower than anyone else.

On the big boat, Qian San was embarrassed and accompanied carefully.

"My lord, we are really duty-bound people. Please let me go, my lord. I really didn't do anything illegal. Although I brought a boatload of tea to Beijing, I paid taxes with paperwork. It was only shipped to the capital."

Xiao Beiye still drank his tea calmly, ignoring Qian San who was talking, his eyes were full of thoughtfulness, except for Qian San's cautious voice, no one else spoke on the big boat, it was very quiet, suddenly, On the shore of the ship on the other side, there was a scream.

"Quick, there's going to be a fight over there."

"I heard that there is a fool. Because a soldier called him a fool, he even called other people's family fools."

"It's not good, we're really fighting," shouts continued on the river bank, Xiao Beiye's sharp eyes shot out a cold light, and he quickly looked at the pier on the other side. The pier at the mouth of the river can hold two boats in parallel. Therefore, the inspection of the river mouth has always been carried out by two ships together. On one side, Xiao Beiye inspected, and on the other side, another general inspected. The inspecting general found a young and handsome boy on board, but this person was actually A fool, when they see this person, the searchers will be extra cautious, because the order from above must pay attention to the poor-minded, handsome young man, if he finds this person, he must be cautious, the search soldiers will only But after he said it, he turned out to be a fool, the young man became angry, and immediately jumped up and yelled at the searched soldiers and his family as fools, and even made a move because of this.
