Chapter 132
Lin Jinhua took a few people out of the backyard, and didn't dare to find an inn to stay in, so she hid in a dilapidated empty house not far from the Seventh Prince.
But Lin Jinhua's guess was right, and soon the people from the government surrounded the previous house, but Lin Jinhua had already left with Abao, leaving behind Mo Xue to rely on the identity she had arranged before, not to mention that she was in Jinchao's house. The identity is always secret, so Xixia couldn't find it in a short time. Even if they surrounded the whole house, they still didn't find any evidence.
Zhao Rong was still calm, because Mo Xue was with him.
He looked at the officers and soldiers who were being rummaged around in the house, and didn't make a sound, just waited outside the house, just waiting for the leader before to call the servants in the mansion to question one by one.
"When did you come here?"
"I came here more than ten days ago, and the master and wife were there at that time." The maids all replied like this, because that's what they saw with their eyes.
The leader frowned: "Did outsiders come here during this period of time?"
"No, the master and wife have just come to Kyoto, and they don't have any relatives or friends at all, and they don't see outsiders."
"Then has their food intake changed in the past few days?"
The maid thought about it, but still shook her head.
Mo Xue is very calm, as long as no one is caught, these details are foolproof.Just eating, she made up a big appetite from the beginning, so there is no need to worry about it.
The leader asked for almost an afternoon, but still got nothing, so he left.
After everyone left, Zhao Rong let out a long sigh of relief: "It's dangerous..."
"Hush!" Mo Xue immediately made him hiss: "There is nothing dangerous, there is nothing wrong with it, isn't it?"
Only then did Zhao Rong realize that he could not relax his vigilance at any time, if he said a wrong word, he might lose his life.
Mo Xue waited, watched the people leave, and asked someone to inquire about them, only to find out that they had been watched since they moved here, and the person watching was probably the emperor.
In the evening, Lin Jinhua and the others didn't come back, but Emperor Xin didn't give up, and would go to investigate again, so he planned to hide in the dilapidated abandoned house for a night before talking.
A Bao and Mo Yue made a bedding for Lin Jinhua with hay, and then went back to get the quilt, so they reluctantly took a rest.
"Today is really dangerous. If the master finds out later, I'm afraid it will be exposed." Ah Bao opened the food box he bought in the dark, sniffing the strong smell of food, with a satisfied expression on his face.
Lin Jinhua smiled: "It's just that they insisted on arresting Mr. Hao, so I was lucky enough to see the flaw, but what did the emperor want to arrest me for? To please Concubine Jiang? But he may not even know that Concubine Jiang sent me The assassin came to kill me, otherwise with his love for Concubine Jiang, he could directly issue a search warrant for the whole city, but why did he just use this method to find me?" She couldn't figure it out.
Mo Yue also shook her head: "I don't know, but judging by the attitude of those officers and soldiers, it's probably not a good thing."
Bao also nodded.
Lin Jinhua saw that she was very hungry, so she didn't say any more, and only talked about it after eating first.
Lin Jinhua stopped after eating a little, but after a while, she heard a voice from outside the room.
The few people were slightly startled, and Mo Yue hurriedly walked towards the door vigilantly, only to see a strange man had already walked in, and walked under a tree in the yard, wondering what to think.
Ah Bao followed suit and looked at him, and was a little surprised when he saw him dressed in brocade clothes: "Who the hell is this?"
Mo Yue shook her head, and after a while, the man turned around, looking coldly at the door with his red eyes, and A Bao let out a soft cry in fright.
"Who!"
Grandson Qi Ye said coldly.
Usually, when he couldn't get rid of his emotions, he would come here alone, and he had already bought this abandoned house.
A Bao covered his mouth and looked at Lin Jinhua nervously, Lin Jinhua only looked at Mo Yue.
Mo Yue understood, carefully opened the door and walked out, then said: "The little girl passed by here, she really has no place to sleep, so I just want to borrow a night..."
"People from Jinchao?" Changsun Qiye stared at her coldly. When he saw Jinchao people, he thought of Amu, the long hair around her ears that was blown by the wind under the flower tree that day, and her whole body. The red clothes are sparkling, but extremely indifferent.
"Yes." Mo Yue walked out alone, already thinking about what to do.
Just as she was thinking, Changsun Qiye only glanced at her, then turned and left.
Mo Yue watched his back leave in surprise, after a long while, after confirming that he was not there, she turned and went back to the room.
Lin Jinhua and Abao had packed up the quilts now, and said, "It's not safe here, let's go back to the house first."
"What if you are being searched by someone?"
"Don't sleep tonight, just keep an eye on it. Once someone comes over, we will come out immediately." Lin Jinhua can't do anything now, but it seems that the danger of being discovered by the eldest grandson Qiye here is even greater.
Seeing that she had made up her mind, Mo Yue nodded and led her away quickly.
After Changsun Qiye went back, he still had a sleepless night. When he closed his eyes, all he could see was her shadow. Now there was still no fire in his room. In this cold winter, it was like an icehouse. It's not popular at all.
Changqing just stood outside the house, watching the dark clouds piled up in the sky covering the night light, and sighed leisurely, if only the Seventh Prince hadn't met Amu in the Baicao Garden that day.
After going there overnight, Chang Qing was still leaning against the door and taking a nap, and saw him come out of the house, and changed into decent clothes.
"Seventh Prince, you are..."
"The envoy is going to arrive today, so the prince will naturally go there." He finished his words calmly, and already stepped forward.
Chang Qing didn't want him to be involved in these struggles, and stepped forward to persuade him: "Seventh Prince, why do you..."
"If you don't want to go, you don't have to follow." Changsun Qiye interrupted him, turned around and left.
How could Chang Qing let him go alone, and hurried to follow, only to find that Fang Bo was coming from the kitchen with a smile on his face.
Chang Qing's footsteps stopped, he was so happy?Didn't he have a good relationship with Ah Mu? How could he smile so happily when Ah Mu died?
Fang Bo also noticed that Chang Qing was staring at him, quickly put away his smile, and asked, "Guard Chang, what are you doing staring at this slave?"
"Uncle Fang is happy?" Chang Qing asked with a smile.
Hearing this, Uncle Fang knew that he was suspicious, so he no longer deliberately hid his smile, and said with a smile: "Yes, because the daughter-in-law is up to the challenge, he added a granddaughter."
Chang Qing saw that he didn't seem to be lying, and saw that the carriage of Changsun Qiye had already set off, so he didn't continue to ask, and quickly followed.
When passing through the alley, he saw the servants of the Zhao Mansion not far from the Seventh Prince's Mansion cleaning up, so he took a second look before leaving.
Lin Jinhua waited in the mansion for the whole night yesterday, and at the fourth watch, the people from the government came again and checked whether Mo Xue and Zhao Rong lived together, but fortunately their room was indeed the same room , so after a brief search, he left.
Only then was Lin Jinhua able to sleep peacefully, and when she woke up in the afternoon, the ready-made soup had already arrived.
Mo Xue smiled on the side: "The servant has already made arrangements. After your fetus is stable, we can go to find the prince."
While drinking the soup, Lin Jinhua thought about the prescriptions she had seen before, and said, "We need to find the fairy grass and the seven-star Gu first."
"What are you looking for?" Mo Yue asked in confusion.
"It's a cure." Lin Jinhua looked at them with a smile, "It can cure the prince's illness."
"But the doctor said earlier that this fairy grass is in the most poisonous place in the Valley of Hundred Poisons..."
Before Mo Xue finished speaking, Zhao Rong came from outside, panting for breath.
He was going to take a stroll outside pretending to discuss business today, but he saw someone selling fairy grass in the market.
"It's really fairy grass?" Lin Jinhua was a little excited.
Zhao Rong nodded hastily: "I don't dare to lie, the young master is talking about selling fairy grass, and there is only one tree, and he even tried it with poisonous insects, and the poisonous insects dare not get close to the fairy grass. Look, I'm afraid it's true."
Hearing this, Lin Jinhua paused for a while before shaking her head, "No..."
"What's wrong?
Zhao Rong was puzzled.
Lin Jinhua just looked at him and asked, "Why did someone come out and sell it when I said I wanted fairy grass?"
"It might be a coincidence."
"This coincidence is too coincidental, and that person is still selling in the market. Where will people in the market buy his medicine? If he wants money, he can go to the largest drugstore. Not only can he sell at a high price, but It will make other people who want to buy it more convinced that it is fairy grass." Lin Jinhua said.
Zhao Rong was puzzled, and only said: "Could it be that he didn't think of it at all?"
"It is said that fairy grass grows in extremely dangerous places. Those who dare to pick it and get it have no courage. How could it be possible? But he is selling it in the most ignorant way." Lin Jinhua said.
Mo Xue also frowned: "Could it be that he used this method to lure the master out on purpose?"
"This possibility cannot be ruled out," Lin Jinhua said.
"Then we won't go out, we won't be fooled by him!" A Bao said.
Lin Jinyu shook her head with a serious expression: "The fairy grass only grows once a hundred years, which is extremely rare. If we don't want it, we don't know when we will find the next one. Today's medicine is a trap, I'm afraid I have to try it After Lin Jinhua finished speaking, he looked at Zhao Rong: "Send someone to ask how much the medicine costs and how to trade it. Just ask and see if he will sell it to others. Don't show any flaws."
"Yes." Zhao Rong nodded quickly and went out to find a servant, gave him 20 taels, and said, "Go and ask if the fairy grass can be sold? If you can buy it for 20 taels, then buy it back."
The boy was not suspicious, and hurried to go. After all, Zhao Rong is now a businessman, and there is nothing wrong with doing business, and the focus seems to be no longer on the fairy grass.
market place.
The man quietly waited for the people who came to ask the price, and he would chat with everyone who came, but he offered a sky-high price until the boy from the Zhao Mansion came over and said, "My master asked you, can you pay 20 taels?" Sell?"
"Yes." The man responded directly.
There was an uproar around: "I am willing to pay 100 taels!"
"I'm willing to pay 1000 taels!"
The boy was also taken aback, but the master told him to buy it if he could buy it for 20 taels.
He gave the silver to the young master, then carefully hugged the fairy grass and said, "If you want to buy it, go to the gate of the Zhao Mansion and wait." Buy two.
But before he left, the young master said to him: "Take this flower back, and Shun Bei will bring a message to your master."
"what news?"
"You owe me a favor after taking my flowers, but you have to pay it back. If you know how to repay your kindness, then things will be easier to deal with in the future." The man said.
The boy didn't understand what he meant, my master is just a silk merchant, what is there to repay?
But since he said so, he responded accordingly, and quickly left with the flowers in his arms.
The man watched him leave with a slight smile on his face.
The little boy next to him couldn't help but said: "Master, it's not worth it to give such a good thing to her like this?"
"Master's plan can't be wrong." The man said with a smile, then turned his head and left.
Seeing what he said, the little boy didn't want to ask any more questions, so he hurried away after him.
But as soon as he left, someone followed him immediately. Shopping for vegetables in this Western Xia capital was like selling fairy grass along the street, and it was difficult not to be watched.
When Lin Jinhua saw Zhao Rong coming back holding the fairy grass, she was stunned: "I bought it for 20 taels?"
"The man left a message, saying that it was a gift, and he said that he would remember to return it later. I don't know what it means." Zhao Rong said.
"Perhaps he already knows what I mean by being here." Lin Jinhua glanced at Mo Xue: "The Fairy Spirit Grass was delivered in such an open manner, there must be more people staring at this place, you pay close attention these few days Now, if there is any trouble, report it immediately."
"Yes."
However, there are quite a few people in Kyoto who are staring at the fairy grass. Xixia is a country of medicine, and they know the preciousness of the fairy grass.
In the imperial palace, Xianyue sat in Concubine Jiang's palace, her face was a little dignified: "If the guess is right, he must be back."
"It was kindness to drive him out of Xixia back then." Concubine Jiang said flatly.
"But what if the father must leave him a way out?" Xuanyue mentioned this matter, only satirizing her father's indecision and bad intentions, always thinking about leaving a way out for others.
Concubine Jiang also knows the character of the emperor, which is why she chose the more ambitious emperor of the Jin Dynasty.
She glanced at Xianyue, and said lightly: "All these years, we have dealt with people in the dark, and your father has saved people in the open. If so, you should handle it yourself this time, and you can't make any mistakes."
The crescent moon should fall.
When leaving, he suddenly asked: "The seventh emperor wants to marry the princess of Nanjiang, why does my son feel that the seventh emperor seems to be involved in these fights?"
"He won't."
"But he has..."
"Do you think the matter of getting married is so simple? Besides, he still hasn't been able to overcome the shadow of the past. With his heart, how can he fight." Concubine Jiang mentioned her eldest grandson Qiye, her eyes were only indifferent. She wanted to protect him, but he always lived in his own world. Even her mother and concubine couldn't get in, which made her very frustrated.
Seeing that she said so, Xianyue didn't ask any more questions, turned around and left.
It's just that the Seventh Brother wants to marry Nanjiang because he wants to monopolize the power in Nanjiang and compete with Huai Yan?It's a pity that he can't compete in his life.
The eldest grandson Qi Ye was standing outside Concubine Jiang's palace, when Xian Yue came out, she saw him and smiled slightly: "Seventh Brother, come to pay your respects?"
"There are some things, do you have to do so terribly?" The eldest grandson already knew that they arranged for the assassins that day, and they killed A Mu.
Xianyue saw that he seemed to be angry with her, and the corners of her lips curled up coldly: "Seventh emperor brother, are you going to have a rift with the imperial sister and the concubine Jiang because of a woman you have only known for a few days?"
Grandson Qi Ye clenched her fists tightly. Seeing that he did not speak, Xian Yue turned around and left indifferently, but she heard him say: "Sister Huang, do you always think that I am just an ignorant child hiding in a corner and secretly licking my wound?"
"Isn't it?" Xianyue turned her head and looked at him with a little sarcasm: "But the seventh emperor brother, the emperor sister can warn you, as long as you can be your seventh prince with peace of mind, you can still be loved and prosperous. finish this life."
Grandson Qi Ye sneered: "You think you're great, can you see through me?"
Listening to his rebuttals and his sarcasm, Xianyue's smile finally faded completely: "You should be very clear about what Jiang Concubine wants, if you dare to destroy it, even if you are her own , you should know what the consequences are."
The eldest grandson Qiye didn't make a sound, until he watched Xianyue disappear from his eyes, then he went to the emperor's Qinzheng Hall with a sullen face.
Concubine Jiang actually knew that he was outside the palace, and also knew about his conversation with Xianyue.
The nurse next to her said, "Your Majesty, do you want to take care of it?"
"If he's really ambitious, it's fine, but it's just for a mere woman." Concubine Jiang said with some sarcasm, and then said: "Order, double the manpower, search for Lin Jinhua, and once found, kill without mercy .”
"Yes." Nanny hurriedly agreed and left.
In the Hall of Qinzheng, the emperor looked at the seventh prince who was kneeling on the ground, and just sighed: "Ye'er, you have to think about what it means if you get married." It means that the battle between the princes will also involve him , let him have no peace.
"My son understands."
"Then what if I tell you that the Mubai painting you want is not dead at all?" The emperor covered his mouth and coughed heavily after finishing speaking.
The eldest grandson Qiye was stunned: "Not dead?"
"Yes, it's somewhere in the capital. She didn't die. Even so, do you want to make peace with Nanjiang?"
The emperor took a sip of tea, suppressed his discomfort, and asked.
Grandson Qiye frowned slightly: "My son..."
"Don't rush to answer me, Ye'er, go back and think about it first." After the emperor said, he sent him out.As soon as he left, he spat out a mouthful of blood and fell on the couch.
The eldest grandson Qi Ye didn't know what happened behind him, and he walked out of the palace with complicated feelings in his heart.Ah Mu didn't die, did Chang Qing get back the corpse, did she do it on purpose, did she just want to hide it and escape?
Chang Qing was waiting at the gate of the palace, saw that his complexion was very bad, stepped forward worriedly and said: "Seventh Prince, what's wrong with you?"
The eldest grandson Qi Ye looked at him, but he didn't tell him that A Mu was not dead.
Seeing that he insisted not to speak, Chang Qing didn't want to ask any more, thinking of Fang Bo's abnormality today, and fearing that he had guessed wrong, he didn't make a sound.
It's just that before the two of them were about to get into the carriage, there was a sudden news of good news from eight hundred miles away. Chang Qing took a look and saw the seventh prince again. As expected, the face of the seventh prince turned black.
Zhao Huaiyan won the victory, he definitely didn't want to see it.
Just when he was about to leave, a man in a black cloak suddenly approached, bowed respectfully to his grandson Qi Ye, and said, "Your Highness, Seventh Prince."
"who are you?"
"It's about the same status as you." The man wrapped in the cloak smiled slightly.
The eldest grandson snorted coldly: "Pretending to be a ghost, Chang Qing, kill him."
"Won't the Seventh Prince let Lin Jinhua come out? No, or call her Mu Baihua." The man smiled slightly.
"Who are you?" Chang Qing had already drawn out the sword from his waist, and the guards guarding the palace gate immediately surrounded him.
But the man only smiled and said: "I have a way to guarantee that Lin Jinzhen will be lured out. It depends on whether the Seventh Prince is willing to give it a try. If not, it's fine." After the man finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave. But Ye stopped him, waved back the guards who surrounded him, and said in a cold voice, "What can I do?"
The man turned his head and smiled coldly: "The surefire way."
Lin Jinhua doesn't vomit much in the past few days, but eats a bit more. She can eat some sweet and sour. Her favorite is soup pot, but she can't make it taste like Aunt Cui'er.
After dinner at night, she counted the months, and before she knew it, it was already six months.Xixia here is not like the Jin Dynasty and it is the New Year's Eve. Now it is the New Year's Eve, and it will be warmer in a few months.
The six-month-old belly is not too small, especially since she is still pregnant with twins. She can only sleep on her side now, and her feet still cramp from time to time, which makes her unable to rest well for several days.
One night today, Ah Bao took the initiative to stay and rub her legs, Lin Jinhua only smiled slightly: "It doesn't matter, have you bought all the medicinal materials that I asked you to buy in the surrounding counties?"
"I've bought everything, and I've prepared the badge for all the way. The dry food, clothes and manpower are all waiting outside the city. We can set off when you feel better in the past two days." Ah Bao said with a smile .
"Master, please be careful when you leave this time. The two little masters in your belly are very delicate." Mo Yue warned from the side.She couldn't go with her this time, because she was going to the Southern Border to find Seven Star Gu.
Lin Jinhua smiled and nodded: "I know." She touched her belly lightly and smiled helplessly. If there were not more and more people popping up in this capital, she would still want to wait until she gave birth to a child before leaving. After all The older the month, the heavier her body became. Sometimes during the day she walked a few steps after eating, and then she became very sleepy.But the more this is the case, the more she wants to leave, otherwise she will really be unable to escape if someone finds out.
Everything was ready, and they only had to wait two days for the arrangements to start, but at this juncture, something happened. Suddenly, a man and a woman hung up on the city wall of the capital.
Mo Xue went to see, and the man and woman were none other than Mo Feng and Gao Zhi.
When she and Zhao Rong came back from outside, they didn't mention the city tower. Looking at Lin Jinhua who was sitting on the warm couch learning to make children's clothes with Abao, she smiled and said, "Master, everything is fine."
"That's good." Lin Jinyu embroidered a small bellyband, looked around with a smile, but didn't notice anything unusual about her, and said, "Let's make some arrangements, and we'll go out of the city earlier."
"Yes." Mo Xue squinted at Zhao Rong who was hesitating to speak, hinted that he was not allowed to speak, and then quietly pulled Mo Yue out and told her about it.
Mo Yue's first reaction was the same as hers: "Never tell Master!"
"That's what I mean too. Some people do this to lure the master to show up. The master is pregnant with Liujia now. If he goes out, the goal is too big. If he is caught by someone at that time, if he is a little careless, the two children will be killed." something happened."
"I'll arrange someone to deal with this matter privately. You can take the master out of the city tonight." Mo Yue said.
Mo Xue glanced at her and held her hand tightly: "Take care!"
Mo Yue nodded.
During the night, the plan unfolded as scheduled.
Several carriages went out from the four city gates, and even if the people in the dark were staring at each one, they couldn't watch carefully.
Lin Jinhua had already made up to look like a bloated old lady, she sat in the carriage without saying a word, when the officers and soldiers searched, Ah Bao could only tearfully say that her grandma was seriously ill, and the officers and soldiers did not check and let her go up.
The eldest grandson Qi Ye was on the city wall, looking at the hanging man, waited for a while, and said, "Why hasn't anyone come yet?"
"Either she doesn't know it yet, or she's not in the city at all." The man in the cloak said firmly, "She values the people around her the most, and if something happens to someone around her, she will definitely come out to rescue them."
"You know Amu??
"Not only do I know her, she's very familiar with her. She's a cunning woman." The man smiled lowly, looking down at the people coming in and out of the tower, his eyes were cold.
But not long after, the long-awaited shadow finally appeared.
The black clothes neatly cut the ropes hanging from the city wall, but immediately there were countless hidden guards around her, coming towards her.
"Keep alive!" Changsun Qiye hurriedly said.
"Seventh Prince, don't worry, she's not Lin Jinhua." After the man finished speaking, he looked around secretly, but there was no suspicious person, and there was only one person who came to rescue him. Could it be that Lin Jinhua isn't around here?
He was thinking that the people below had been caught.
Grandson Qiye was the first to rush down, looking at the detained person, his hands trembled slightly, and then stepped forward and pulled off her mask, but it was indeed not Lin Jinhua.
"You are..." Changsun Qiye recognized her, she was the one who appeared in the abandoned house that night.Could it be that she belongs to Ah Mu?So, is it possible that Amu was in that room that night?
Seeing that he was stunned, Mo Yue gritted her teeth and broke away from the hand that was holding her body. Seeing Mo Feng and Gao Zhi who had fainted, she drew out her sword and stood in front of them, saying coldly: "The Seventh Prince is really despicable and shameless, you know Master hates this kind of method the most, so you use this method to lure her out!"
The eldest grandson Qiye tightened his palms slightly, and looked up at her: "Where is Amu now?"
"I won't tell you!" After Mo Yue finished speaking, she was about to leave, but suddenly she heard the sound of orderly footsteps, followed by a large group of soldiers holding torches high.
Changsun Qiye turned around and saw that the person riding on the horse was actually the prince, his face turned cold instantly.
The prince laughed lightly: "The seventh emperor brother wants to arrest someone, why didn't you inform the emperor brother, the emperor brother can help you arrest!" After speaking, he said coldly: "Take everyone away!"
Seeing that there was no way to save anyone, Mo Yue could only run away alone, but when she left, she also saw the person standing on the city wall looking down, Zhao Qing!
She stared wide-eyed, but Zhao Qing smiled at her, and then released the crossbow arrow in his hand, which pierced Mo Yue's shoulder blade fiercely.
Mo Yue lost her strength and fell straight down. If she fell from such a high position, she would definitely die.
She didn't even have the strength to turn around again, but before she landed, someone grabbed her waist and hugged her in her arms.
"Killing people in front of my prince, who do you think you are?" Changsun Qiye looked coldly at the people on the city wall, and said coldly, "Arrest him!"
After finishing speaking, the hidden guards immediately went towards Zhao Qing, but Zhao Qing seemed to have expected it, and looked at the eldest grandson Qi Ye with a sneer: "You are really the most pitiful person in the world I have ever seen, Seventh Prince, what do you want to do in this life?" I will never get what I want in my life." After speaking, he turned around and jumped to the other side of the city wall, disappearing into the night.
The eldest grandson Qiye clenched his fists tightly, turned his head and glanced at the prince, and for the first time showed contempt for him: "I don't need the prince to worry about my affairs." After finishing speaking, he threw Mo Yue to Chang Qing behind him, leave coldly.
The prince was so shameless that his face turned blue, but after he left, he just sneered: "Poor guy who thinks he can't control himself!" After saying that, he also left with others.
Not far from here, seeing this scene, Ye Sheng also knew that Lin Jinhua had left.The moment he looked out of the city through the city gate, his gaze became dark.
All the way out of the city, Lin Jinhua didn't know what happened. She was relieved when the waterway was changed in the next county.
"Take the waterway from here to Jinchao, and you are safe." Mo Xue came in with some food, saw that she was still embroidering the child's clothes, and smiled lightly: "The clothes you make are all pink. How good is it to have two young sons?"
"No." Lin Jinhua was convinced, after all, the child was so good all the time, if it was a boy, wouldn't it be crazy to quarrel.
She embroidered her clothes with peace of mind, and traveled north all the way, except for food supplies, she rarely went ashore until she stopped at a pier again.
This is the most dangerous place on this trip. Not only are water bandits and other vicious people gathered here, but it is also adjacent to the southern border, and in the small town next to the Hundred Poison Valley and the pier, there are either Gu insects or poisons. , there are no good people.
Lin Jinhua had never been here before, so she was very careful when passing by, and gave all the protection fees that should be paid, just to avoid trouble.
Mo Xue came back after paying the protection fee, looked at Lin Jinyu sitting on the bed with a vigilant look, and only smiled and said: "Master, you can rest for a while, we paid the money, rest here tonight, and leave tomorrow morning. Moreover, Master Xu Chengqing, who has been staying in the south of the Yangtze River, has also come here with Zheng Qiong, and after a few more days of waterway, when we land, I am afraid that we will meet them." Mo Xue laughed.
When Lin Jinhua heard Xu Chengqing's name, she suddenly missed him.I haven't seen each other for several months, and I don't know what is going on with my father, brother and uncle's family now, whether the emperor will let them go.
After thinking about it, she didn't relax her vigilance and fell asleep, she just leaned on the bedside and smiled: "I won't sleep, let everyone work harder tonight, let's go overnight, after we pass here, we will rest tomorrow."
Seeing her persistence, Mo Xue didn't say any more, and immediately went to make arrangements, and the big boat that was originally moored slowly began to move.
Ah Bao was still talking, but Lin Jinhua's embroidering hands stopped suddenly.
She looked up in surprise: "Master, what's wrong?"
Lin Jinhua already felt that the red rainbow jade on her wrist was starting to get hot, which meant that a Gu worm was approaching.
"Stay by my side later, don't leave for half a step." She instructed.
Seeing her serious expression, Ah Bao immediately asked, "Do you want this servant to tell Sister Mo Xue?"
Lin Jinhua felt Gu's hot wrist, her eyes were slightly cold, and she stared at the candle that was suddenly swayed by the wind. Before Bao could speak again, she pulled out the dagger under the pillow and threw it in one direction. .
Ah Bao let out a soft cry, but Lin Jinhua took the opportunity to blow out the candle, and the whole room instantly became dark, leaving only a little noise from outside the ship.
Ah Bao followed closely beside Lin Jinhua, not daring to show his breath, his eyes staring hard at the surroundings, afraid that someone would suddenly approach, but Lin Jinhua slowly squeezed the red rainbow jade into his palm.
Controlling Gu worms is the most useful, so she will see if she can control the Gu worms here!
After thinking about it, a muffled groan suddenly came from the dark place, and then there was the sound of the clay pot being smashed.
Ah Bao covered his mouth to hold back the whisper, and slowly, he heard the man's suppressed and painful voice.
Lin Jinhua's grip became tighter and tighter, and the man's cries of pain became louder and louder until the door was pushed open.
After Mo Xue came in, she saw that the room was pitch black, but she also sensed the strange aura in the dark place. She drew out her sword and stepped forward to deal with him. Then she said: "Master, we are surrounded."
"Didn't you already pay the protection fee?" Ah Bao asked hurriedly.
"Those people are simply greedy and greedy. They want to take away all our money and our people." After Mo Xue finished speaking, she stepped forward to support Lin Jinhua: "Master, you and Abao first come from here." Take a small boat at the stern, and the people from Qingshan Village will follow you all the way."
"Then sister Xue, what about you?" A Bao asked worriedly.
"I'll drag them down for a while, don't worry, I'll come to you soon." After Mo Xue finished speaking, she led them to the stern, but at this moment, a big fire broke out from the deck, and those The vicious water bandits also came to kill them, and the number of them was not just a dozen or so they had seen before, but there were nearly a hundred of them, and most of the boats moored on the river belonged to them.They robbed passers-by in conjunction with Gu raisers and poison users. As for the boats on the river without owners, it was because their owners were all killed.
Someone came to kill in the cabin, Mo Xue could only block it first, and then said to Lin Jinhua: "Master, you go first!"
Lin Jinhua had a big belly, and the person who came was not a Gu Master. She didn't dare to drag Mo Xue down, so she had to drag the frightened A Bao to the stern of the boat, but the people from Qingshanzhai who were waiting for him at this moment had also been captured by the water bandits. killed.
"Master, you get on the boat, and this servant will block you!" Ah Bao picked up the knife on the ground as if dying, and shouted at the crowd: "You have the ability to charge me, don't attack the pregnant woman!"
Those water bandits looked at each other, touched their chins and sneered: "Then we will fulfill you!" After speaking, they came to kill with a knife.
Lin Jinhua grabbed the medicine powder in her hand and sprinkled it all out, and when the sword pierced Ah Bao's throat, she almost pulled her over, but accidentally hit her stomach, and immediately burst into tears from the pain.
"Master!" Ah Bao cried out in fright. Mo Xue heard the movement, but she was entangled and couldn't get through.
There were too many water bandits, hundreds of them, but they had less than twenty, so they couldn't beat them at all.
Seeing that the fire was about to swallow the entire ship, Lin Jinhua stared at the water bandits who were slowly approaching in front of him, and asked Abao, "Can you swim?"
"know a little……"
After Ah Bao finished speaking, Lin Jinhua pushed her into the water.
Seeing that the water bandit was going to chase him, he just sneered: "All the money is on me, and your target is me."
The leader of the water bandits stared at Lin Jinhua's face, which was extraordinarily coquettish under the light of the soaring fire.
"Come here, arrest her, kill the child in her stomach, and live!"
After speaking, the water bandits surrounded him.
Lin Jinhua secretly gritted her teeth, only touched her aching stomach, and before those people caught her, she turned her head and jumped into the river.
She knew that in the current situation, she jumped into the icy cold water, and she would surely die, but it was better than watching them kill her child. If she wanted to die, she would die with the child!
"master!"
Mo Xue screamed, turned around and wanted to jump into the water, but someone grabbed the back of her clothes directly: "She wants to die, and you want to die too?"
The indifferent and sarcastic voice made Mo Xue tremble instantly: "My lord!"
Mo Xue is in Zhao Huaiyan's memory, but it is only limited to those times when she was in the palace.
"Another one to die?" The leader of the water bandit looked at the man who came alone, and laughed sarcastically, but when he saw the man calmly pulled out the cold sword from his waist, his murderous aura suddenly rose.
Mo Xue didn't know why Zhao Huaiyan suddenly appeared here, wasn't he at the border of the Jin Dynasty?At least three or four days away from here...
But in fact, Zhao Huaiyan didn't know why he came here, he was heartbroken every day and every night, he must go back and grab Mu Baihua, let him give him the antidote!
After he thought about it, he raised his sword and went up to kill. Mo Xue also took the opportunity to jump into the lake, rescued Lin Jinhua, and put him on the boat. Abao also climbed up before he could swim far.
The three of them were in a small boat, which was too eye-catching, but when those people were about to chase them, Zhao Huaiyan had already flew over, stood on the bow, and let the boat go forward quickly with the wind.
The water bandits wanted to chase again, but they were stopped by the leader: "That man was called 'Prince' just now."
"Could it be someone from the government? We don't care about it here." Someone asked.
"You don't need to chase any more, go back and report to me." After the leader finished speaking, he turned his head and left.
Lin Jinhua choked on a lot of water after falling into the water, and when she finally spit out the choking water, she saw Zhao Huaiyan who was sitting next to her, frowning and looking at her strangely.
She thought it was a dream, and smiled at him: "Huaiyan..."
"Who are you painted by Mu Bai?" Zhao Huaiyan looked at her face that was exactly the same as Mu Bai's, and asked coldly.
Lin Jinhua was slightly taken aback, is it really him?Not dreaming?
Seeing that she was still lying on the boat, she was sure that it was not a dream, and her grievances surged up in an instant, she got up and wrapped her arms around Zhao Huaiyan's neck and hugged him tightly: "Huaiyan, you are here."
"who are you?"
"It's your wife."
"Humph……"
"I already have your child in my stomach." Lin Jinhua said stubbornly, holding back tears.
Zhao Huaiyan frowned deeply, and pushed her away: "Are you Mu Baihua?"
"Of course, I was pregnant only after you kissed me. Do you want to admit that you are Chen Shimei?" Lin Jinhua bit her lips with tears in her eyes and asked him aggrievedly. His hands had already wrapped her in his arms.
(End of this chapter)
Lin Jinhua took a few people out of the backyard, and didn't dare to find an inn to stay in, so she hid in a dilapidated empty house not far from the Seventh Prince.
But Lin Jinhua's guess was right, and soon the people from the government surrounded the previous house, but Lin Jinhua had already left with Abao, leaving behind Mo Xue to rely on the identity she had arranged before, not to mention that she was in Jinchao's house. The identity is always secret, so Xixia couldn't find it in a short time. Even if they surrounded the whole house, they still didn't find any evidence.
Zhao Rong was still calm, because Mo Xue was with him.
He looked at the officers and soldiers who were being rummaged around in the house, and didn't make a sound, just waited outside the house, just waiting for the leader before to call the servants in the mansion to question one by one.
"When did you come here?"
"I came here more than ten days ago, and the master and wife were there at that time." The maids all replied like this, because that's what they saw with their eyes.
The leader frowned: "Did outsiders come here during this period of time?"
"No, the master and wife have just come to Kyoto, and they don't have any relatives or friends at all, and they don't see outsiders."
"Then has their food intake changed in the past few days?"
The maid thought about it, but still shook her head.
Mo Xue is very calm, as long as no one is caught, these details are foolproof.Just eating, she made up a big appetite from the beginning, so there is no need to worry about it.
The leader asked for almost an afternoon, but still got nothing, so he left.
After everyone left, Zhao Rong let out a long sigh of relief: "It's dangerous..."
"Hush!" Mo Xue immediately made him hiss: "There is nothing dangerous, there is nothing wrong with it, isn't it?"
Only then did Zhao Rong realize that he could not relax his vigilance at any time, if he said a wrong word, he might lose his life.
Mo Xue waited, watched the people leave, and asked someone to inquire about them, only to find out that they had been watched since they moved here, and the person watching was probably the emperor.
In the evening, Lin Jinhua and the others didn't come back, but Emperor Xin didn't give up, and would go to investigate again, so he planned to hide in the dilapidated abandoned house for a night before talking.
A Bao and Mo Yue made a bedding for Lin Jinhua with hay, and then went back to get the quilt, so they reluctantly took a rest.
"Today is really dangerous. If the master finds out later, I'm afraid it will be exposed." Ah Bao opened the food box he bought in the dark, sniffing the strong smell of food, with a satisfied expression on his face.
Lin Jinhua smiled: "It's just that they insisted on arresting Mr. Hao, so I was lucky enough to see the flaw, but what did the emperor want to arrest me for? To please Concubine Jiang? But he may not even know that Concubine Jiang sent me The assassin came to kill me, otherwise with his love for Concubine Jiang, he could directly issue a search warrant for the whole city, but why did he just use this method to find me?" She couldn't figure it out.
Mo Yue also shook her head: "I don't know, but judging by the attitude of those officers and soldiers, it's probably not a good thing."
Bao also nodded.
Lin Jinhua saw that she was very hungry, so she didn't say any more, and only talked about it after eating first.
Lin Jinhua stopped after eating a little, but after a while, she heard a voice from outside the room.
The few people were slightly startled, and Mo Yue hurriedly walked towards the door vigilantly, only to see a strange man had already walked in, and walked under a tree in the yard, wondering what to think.
Ah Bao followed suit and looked at him, and was a little surprised when he saw him dressed in brocade clothes: "Who the hell is this?"
Mo Yue shook her head, and after a while, the man turned around, looking coldly at the door with his red eyes, and A Bao let out a soft cry in fright.
"Who!"
Grandson Qi Ye said coldly.
Usually, when he couldn't get rid of his emotions, he would come here alone, and he had already bought this abandoned house.
A Bao covered his mouth and looked at Lin Jinhua nervously, Lin Jinhua only looked at Mo Yue.
Mo Yue understood, carefully opened the door and walked out, then said: "The little girl passed by here, she really has no place to sleep, so I just want to borrow a night..."
"People from Jinchao?" Changsun Qiye stared at her coldly. When he saw Jinchao people, he thought of Amu, the long hair around her ears that was blown by the wind under the flower tree that day, and her whole body. The red clothes are sparkling, but extremely indifferent.
"Yes." Mo Yue walked out alone, already thinking about what to do.
Just as she was thinking, Changsun Qiye only glanced at her, then turned and left.
Mo Yue watched his back leave in surprise, after a long while, after confirming that he was not there, she turned and went back to the room.
Lin Jinhua and Abao had packed up the quilts now, and said, "It's not safe here, let's go back to the house first."
"What if you are being searched by someone?"
"Don't sleep tonight, just keep an eye on it. Once someone comes over, we will come out immediately." Lin Jinhua can't do anything now, but it seems that the danger of being discovered by the eldest grandson Qiye here is even greater.
Seeing that she had made up her mind, Mo Yue nodded and led her away quickly.
After Changsun Qiye went back, he still had a sleepless night. When he closed his eyes, all he could see was her shadow. Now there was still no fire in his room. In this cold winter, it was like an icehouse. It's not popular at all.
Changqing just stood outside the house, watching the dark clouds piled up in the sky covering the night light, and sighed leisurely, if only the Seventh Prince hadn't met Amu in the Baicao Garden that day.
After going there overnight, Chang Qing was still leaning against the door and taking a nap, and saw him come out of the house, and changed into decent clothes.
"Seventh Prince, you are..."
"The envoy is going to arrive today, so the prince will naturally go there." He finished his words calmly, and already stepped forward.
Chang Qing didn't want him to be involved in these struggles, and stepped forward to persuade him: "Seventh Prince, why do you..."
"If you don't want to go, you don't have to follow." Changsun Qiye interrupted him, turned around and left.
How could Chang Qing let him go alone, and hurried to follow, only to find that Fang Bo was coming from the kitchen with a smile on his face.
Chang Qing's footsteps stopped, he was so happy?Didn't he have a good relationship with Ah Mu? How could he smile so happily when Ah Mu died?
Fang Bo also noticed that Chang Qing was staring at him, quickly put away his smile, and asked, "Guard Chang, what are you doing staring at this slave?"
"Uncle Fang is happy?" Chang Qing asked with a smile.
Hearing this, Uncle Fang knew that he was suspicious, so he no longer deliberately hid his smile, and said with a smile: "Yes, because the daughter-in-law is up to the challenge, he added a granddaughter."
Chang Qing saw that he didn't seem to be lying, and saw that the carriage of Changsun Qiye had already set off, so he didn't continue to ask, and quickly followed.
When passing through the alley, he saw the servants of the Zhao Mansion not far from the Seventh Prince's Mansion cleaning up, so he took a second look before leaving.
Lin Jinhua waited in the mansion for the whole night yesterday, and at the fourth watch, the people from the government came again and checked whether Mo Xue and Zhao Rong lived together, but fortunately their room was indeed the same room , so after a brief search, he left.
Only then was Lin Jinhua able to sleep peacefully, and when she woke up in the afternoon, the ready-made soup had already arrived.
Mo Xue smiled on the side: "The servant has already made arrangements. After your fetus is stable, we can go to find the prince."
While drinking the soup, Lin Jinhua thought about the prescriptions she had seen before, and said, "We need to find the fairy grass and the seven-star Gu first."
"What are you looking for?" Mo Yue asked in confusion.
"It's a cure." Lin Jinhua looked at them with a smile, "It can cure the prince's illness."
"But the doctor said earlier that this fairy grass is in the most poisonous place in the Valley of Hundred Poisons..."
Before Mo Xue finished speaking, Zhao Rong came from outside, panting for breath.
He was going to take a stroll outside pretending to discuss business today, but he saw someone selling fairy grass in the market.
"It's really fairy grass?" Lin Jinhua was a little excited.
Zhao Rong nodded hastily: "I don't dare to lie, the young master is talking about selling fairy grass, and there is only one tree, and he even tried it with poisonous insects, and the poisonous insects dare not get close to the fairy grass. Look, I'm afraid it's true."
Hearing this, Lin Jinhua paused for a while before shaking her head, "No..."
"What's wrong?
Zhao Rong was puzzled.
Lin Jinhua just looked at him and asked, "Why did someone come out and sell it when I said I wanted fairy grass?"
"It might be a coincidence."
"This coincidence is too coincidental, and that person is still selling in the market. Where will people in the market buy his medicine? If he wants money, he can go to the largest drugstore. Not only can he sell at a high price, but It will make other people who want to buy it more convinced that it is fairy grass." Lin Jinhua said.
Zhao Rong was puzzled, and only said: "Could it be that he didn't think of it at all?"
"It is said that fairy grass grows in extremely dangerous places. Those who dare to pick it and get it have no courage. How could it be possible? But he is selling it in the most ignorant way." Lin Jinhua said.
Mo Xue also frowned: "Could it be that he used this method to lure the master out on purpose?"
"This possibility cannot be ruled out," Lin Jinhua said.
"Then we won't go out, we won't be fooled by him!" A Bao said.
Lin Jinyu shook her head with a serious expression: "The fairy grass only grows once a hundred years, which is extremely rare. If we don't want it, we don't know when we will find the next one. Today's medicine is a trap, I'm afraid I have to try it After Lin Jinhua finished speaking, he looked at Zhao Rong: "Send someone to ask how much the medicine costs and how to trade it. Just ask and see if he will sell it to others. Don't show any flaws."
"Yes." Zhao Rong nodded quickly and went out to find a servant, gave him 20 taels, and said, "Go and ask if the fairy grass can be sold? If you can buy it for 20 taels, then buy it back."
The boy was not suspicious, and hurried to go. After all, Zhao Rong is now a businessman, and there is nothing wrong with doing business, and the focus seems to be no longer on the fairy grass.
market place.
The man quietly waited for the people who came to ask the price, and he would chat with everyone who came, but he offered a sky-high price until the boy from the Zhao Mansion came over and said, "My master asked you, can you pay 20 taels?" Sell?"
"Yes." The man responded directly.
There was an uproar around: "I am willing to pay 100 taels!"
"I'm willing to pay 1000 taels!"
The boy was also taken aback, but the master told him to buy it if he could buy it for 20 taels.
He gave the silver to the young master, then carefully hugged the fairy grass and said, "If you want to buy it, go to the gate of the Zhao Mansion and wait." Buy two.
But before he left, the young master said to him: "Take this flower back, and Shun Bei will bring a message to your master."
"what news?"
"You owe me a favor after taking my flowers, but you have to pay it back. If you know how to repay your kindness, then things will be easier to deal with in the future." The man said.
The boy didn't understand what he meant, my master is just a silk merchant, what is there to repay?
But since he said so, he responded accordingly, and quickly left with the flowers in his arms.
The man watched him leave with a slight smile on his face.
The little boy next to him couldn't help but said: "Master, it's not worth it to give such a good thing to her like this?"
"Master's plan can't be wrong." The man said with a smile, then turned his head and left.
Seeing what he said, the little boy didn't want to ask any more questions, so he hurried away after him.
But as soon as he left, someone followed him immediately. Shopping for vegetables in this Western Xia capital was like selling fairy grass along the street, and it was difficult not to be watched.
When Lin Jinhua saw Zhao Rong coming back holding the fairy grass, she was stunned: "I bought it for 20 taels?"
"The man left a message, saying that it was a gift, and he said that he would remember to return it later. I don't know what it means." Zhao Rong said.
"Perhaps he already knows what I mean by being here." Lin Jinhua glanced at Mo Xue: "The Fairy Spirit Grass was delivered in such an open manner, there must be more people staring at this place, you pay close attention these few days Now, if there is any trouble, report it immediately."
"Yes."
However, there are quite a few people in Kyoto who are staring at the fairy grass. Xixia is a country of medicine, and they know the preciousness of the fairy grass.
In the imperial palace, Xianyue sat in Concubine Jiang's palace, her face was a little dignified: "If the guess is right, he must be back."
"It was kindness to drive him out of Xixia back then." Concubine Jiang said flatly.
"But what if the father must leave him a way out?" Xuanyue mentioned this matter, only satirizing her father's indecision and bad intentions, always thinking about leaving a way out for others.
Concubine Jiang also knows the character of the emperor, which is why she chose the more ambitious emperor of the Jin Dynasty.
She glanced at Xianyue, and said lightly: "All these years, we have dealt with people in the dark, and your father has saved people in the open. If so, you should handle it yourself this time, and you can't make any mistakes."
The crescent moon should fall.
When leaving, he suddenly asked: "The seventh emperor wants to marry the princess of Nanjiang, why does my son feel that the seventh emperor seems to be involved in these fights?"
"He won't."
"But he has..."
"Do you think the matter of getting married is so simple? Besides, he still hasn't been able to overcome the shadow of the past. With his heart, how can he fight." Concubine Jiang mentioned her eldest grandson Qiye, her eyes were only indifferent. She wanted to protect him, but he always lived in his own world. Even her mother and concubine couldn't get in, which made her very frustrated.
Seeing that she said so, Xianyue didn't ask any more questions, turned around and left.
It's just that the Seventh Brother wants to marry Nanjiang because he wants to monopolize the power in Nanjiang and compete with Huai Yan?It's a pity that he can't compete in his life.
The eldest grandson Qi Ye was standing outside Concubine Jiang's palace, when Xian Yue came out, she saw him and smiled slightly: "Seventh Brother, come to pay your respects?"
"There are some things, do you have to do so terribly?" The eldest grandson already knew that they arranged for the assassins that day, and they killed A Mu.
Xianyue saw that he seemed to be angry with her, and the corners of her lips curled up coldly: "Seventh emperor brother, are you going to have a rift with the imperial sister and the concubine Jiang because of a woman you have only known for a few days?"
Grandson Qi Ye clenched her fists tightly. Seeing that he did not speak, Xian Yue turned around and left indifferently, but she heard him say: "Sister Huang, do you always think that I am just an ignorant child hiding in a corner and secretly licking my wound?"
"Isn't it?" Xianyue turned her head and looked at him with a little sarcasm: "But the seventh emperor brother, the emperor sister can warn you, as long as you can be your seventh prince with peace of mind, you can still be loved and prosperous. finish this life."
Grandson Qi Ye sneered: "You think you're great, can you see through me?"
Listening to his rebuttals and his sarcasm, Xianyue's smile finally faded completely: "You should be very clear about what Jiang Concubine wants, if you dare to destroy it, even if you are her own , you should know what the consequences are."
The eldest grandson Qiye didn't make a sound, until he watched Xianyue disappear from his eyes, then he went to the emperor's Qinzheng Hall with a sullen face.
Concubine Jiang actually knew that he was outside the palace, and also knew about his conversation with Xianyue.
The nurse next to her said, "Your Majesty, do you want to take care of it?"
"If he's really ambitious, it's fine, but it's just for a mere woman." Concubine Jiang said with some sarcasm, and then said: "Order, double the manpower, search for Lin Jinhua, and once found, kill without mercy .”
"Yes." Nanny hurriedly agreed and left.
In the Hall of Qinzheng, the emperor looked at the seventh prince who was kneeling on the ground, and just sighed: "Ye'er, you have to think about what it means if you get married." It means that the battle between the princes will also involve him , let him have no peace.
"My son understands."
"Then what if I tell you that the Mubai painting you want is not dead at all?" The emperor covered his mouth and coughed heavily after finishing speaking.
The eldest grandson Qiye was stunned: "Not dead?"
"Yes, it's somewhere in the capital. She didn't die. Even so, do you want to make peace with Nanjiang?"
The emperor took a sip of tea, suppressed his discomfort, and asked.
Grandson Qiye frowned slightly: "My son..."
"Don't rush to answer me, Ye'er, go back and think about it first." After the emperor said, he sent him out.As soon as he left, he spat out a mouthful of blood and fell on the couch.
The eldest grandson Qi Ye didn't know what happened behind him, and he walked out of the palace with complicated feelings in his heart.Ah Mu didn't die, did Chang Qing get back the corpse, did she do it on purpose, did she just want to hide it and escape?
Chang Qing was waiting at the gate of the palace, saw that his complexion was very bad, stepped forward worriedly and said: "Seventh Prince, what's wrong with you?"
The eldest grandson Qi Ye looked at him, but he didn't tell him that A Mu was not dead.
Seeing that he insisted not to speak, Chang Qing didn't want to ask any more, thinking of Fang Bo's abnormality today, and fearing that he had guessed wrong, he didn't make a sound.
It's just that before the two of them were about to get into the carriage, there was a sudden news of good news from eight hundred miles away. Chang Qing took a look and saw the seventh prince again. As expected, the face of the seventh prince turned black.
Zhao Huaiyan won the victory, he definitely didn't want to see it.
Just when he was about to leave, a man in a black cloak suddenly approached, bowed respectfully to his grandson Qi Ye, and said, "Your Highness, Seventh Prince."
"who are you?"
"It's about the same status as you." The man wrapped in the cloak smiled slightly.
The eldest grandson snorted coldly: "Pretending to be a ghost, Chang Qing, kill him."
"Won't the Seventh Prince let Lin Jinhua come out? No, or call her Mu Baihua." The man smiled slightly.
"Who are you?" Chang Qing had already drawn out the sword from his waist, and the guards guarding the palace gate immediately surrounded him.
But the man only smiled and said: "I have a way to guarantee that Lin Jinzhen will be lured out. It depends on whether the Seventh Prince is willing to give it a try. If not, it's fine." After the man finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave. But Ye stopped him, waved back the guards who surrounded him, and said in a cold voice, "What can I do?"
The man turned his head and smiled coldly: "The surefire way."
Lin Jinhua doesn't vomit much in the past few days, but eats a bit more. She can eat some sweet and sour. Her favorite is soup pot, but she can't make it taste like Aunt Cui'er.
After dinner at night, she counted the months, and before she knew it, it was already six months.Xixia here is not like the Jin Dynasty and it is the New Year's Eve. Now it is the New Year's Eve, and it will be warmer in a few months.
The six-month-old belly is not too small, especially since she is still pregnant with twins. She can only sleep on her side now, and her feet still cramp from time to time, which makes her unable to rest well for several days.
One night today, Ah Bao took the initiative to stay and rub her legs, Lin Jinhua only smiled slightly: "It doesn't matter, have you bought all the medicinal materials that I asked you to buy in the surrounding counties?"
"I've bought everything, and I've prepared the badge for all the way. The dry food, clothes and manpower are all waiting outside the city. We can set off when you feel better in the past two days." Ah Bao said with a smile .
"Master, please be careful when you leave this time. The two little masters in your belly are very delicate." Mo Yue warned from the side.She couldn't go with her this time, because she was going to the Southern Border to find Seven Star Gu.
Lin Jinhua smiled and nodded: "I know." She touched her belly lightly and smiled helplessly. If there were not more and more people popping up in this capital, she would still want to wait until she gave birth to a child before leaving. After all The older the month, the heavier her body became. Sometimes during the day she walked a few steps after eating, and then she became very sleepy.But the more this is the case, the more she wants to leave, otherwise she will really be unable to escape if someone finds out.
Everything was ready, and they only had to wait two days for the arrangements to start, but at this juncture, something happened. Suddenly, a man and a woman hung up on the city wall of the capital.
Mo Xue went to see, and the man and woman were none other than Mo Feng and Gao Zhi.
When she and Zhao Rong came back from outside, they didn't mention the city tower. Looking at Lin Jinhua who was sitting on the warm couch learning to make children's clothes with Abao, she smiled and said, "Master, everything is fine."
"That's good." Lin Jinyu embroidered a small bellyband, looked around with a smile, but didn't notice anything unusual about her, and said, "Let's make some arrangements, and we'll go out of the city earlier."
"Yes." Mo Xue squinted at Zhao Rong who was hesitating to speak, hinted that he was not allowed to speak, and then quietly pulled Mo Yue out and told her about it.
Mo Yue's first reaction was the same as hers: "Never tell Master!"
"That's what I mean too. Some people do this to lure the master to show up. The master is pregnant with Liujia now. If he goes out, the goal is too big. If he is caught by someone at that time, if he is a little careless, the two children will be killed." something happened."
"I'll arrange someone to deal with this matter privately. You can take the master out of the city tonight." Mo Yue said.
Mo Xue glanced at her and held her hand tightly: "Take care!"
Mo Yue nodded.
During the night, the plan unfolded as scheduled.
Several carriages went out from the four city gates, and even if the people in the dark were staring at each one, they couldn't watch carefully.
Lin Jinhua had already made up to look like a bloated old lady, she sat in the carriage without saying a word, when the officers and soldiers searched, Ah Bao could only tearfully say that her grandma was seriously ill, and the officers and soldiers did not check and let her go up.
The eldest grandson Qi Ye was on the city wall, looking at the hanging man, waited for a while, and said, "Why hasn't anyone come yet?"
"Either she doesn't know it yet, or she's not in the city at all." The man in the cloak said firmly, "She values the people around her the most, and if something happens to someone around her, she will definitely come out to rescue them."
"You know Amu??
"Not only do I know her, she's very familiar with her. She's a cunning woman." The man smiled lowly, looking down at the people coming in and out of the tower, his eyes were cold.
But not long after, the long-awaited shadow finally appeared.
The black clothes neatly cut the ropes hanging from the city wall, but immediately there were countless hidden guards around her, coming towards her.
"Keep alive!" Changsun Qiye hurriedly said.
"Seventh Prince, don't worry, she's not Lin Jinhua." After the man finished speaking, he looked around secretly, but there was no suspicious person, and there was only one person who came to rescue him. Could it be that Lin Jinhua isn't around here?
He was thinking that the people below had been caught.
Grandson Qiye was the first to rush down, looking at the detained person, his hands trembled slightly, and then stepped forward and pulled off her mask, but it was indeed not Lin Jinhua.
"You are..." Changsun Qiye recognized her, she was the one who appeared in the abandoned house that night.Could it be that she belongs to Ah Mu?So, is it possible that Amu was in that room that night?
Seeing that he was stunned, Mo Yue gritted her teeth and broke away from the hand that was holding her body. Seeing Mo Feng and Gao Zhi who had fainted, she drew out her sword and stood in front of them, saying coldly: "The Seventh Prince is really despicable and shameless, you know Master hates this kind of method the most, so you use this method to lure her out!"
The eldest grandson Qiye tightened his palms slightly, and looked up at her: "Where is Amu now?"
"I won't tell you!" After Mo Yue finished speaking, she was about to leave, but suddenly she heard the sound of orderly footsteps, followed by a large group of soldiers holding torches high.
Changsun Qiye turned around and saw that the person riding on the horse was actually the prince, his face turned cold instantly.
The prince laughed lightly: "The seventh emperor brother wants to arrest someone, why didn't you inform the emperor brother, the emperor brother can help you arrest!" After speaking, he said coldly: "Take everyone away!"
Seeing that there was no way to save anyone, Mo Yue could only run away alone, but when she left, she also saw the person standing on the city wall looking down, Zhao Qing!
She stared wide-eyed, but Zhao Qing smiled at her, and then released the crossbow arrow in his hand, which pierced Mo Yue's shoulder blade fiercely.
Mo Yue lost her strength and fell straight down. If she fell from such a high position, she would definitely die.
She didn't even have the strength to turn around again, but before she landed, someone grabbed her waist and hugged her in her arms.
"Killing people in front of my prince, who do you think you are?" Changsun Qiye looked coldly at the people on the city wall, and said coldly, "Arrest him!"
After finishing speaking, the hidden guards immediately went towards Zhao Qing, but Zhao Qing seemed to have expected it, and looked at the eldest grandson Qi Ye with a sneer: "You are really the most pitiful person in the world I have ever seen, Seventh Prince, what do you want to do in this life?" I will never get what I want in my life." After speaking, he turned around and jumped to the other side of the city wall, disappearing into the night.
The eldest grandson Qiye clenched his fists tightly, turned his head and glanced at the prince, and for the first time showed contempt for him: "I don't need the prince to worry about my affairs." After finishing speaking, he threw Mo Yue to Chang Qing behind him, leave coldly.
The prince was so shameless that his face turned blue, but after he left, he just sneered: "Poor guy who thinks he can't control himself!" After saying that, he also left with others.
Not far from here, seeing this scene, Ye Sheng also knew that Lin Jinhua had left.The moment he looked out of the city through the city gate, his gaze became dark.
All the way out of the city, Lin Jinhua didn't know what happened. She was relieved when the waterway was changed in the next county.
"Take the waterway from here to Jinchao, and you are safe." Mo Xue came in with some food, saw that she was still embroidering the child's clothes, and smiled lightly: "The clothes you make are all pink. How good is it to have two young sons?"
"No." Lin Jinhua was convinced, after all, the child was so good all the time, if it was a boy, wouldn't it be crazy to quarrel.
She embroidered her clothes with peace of mind, and traveled north all the way, except for food supplies, she rarely went ashore until she stopped at a pier again.
This is the most dangerous place on this trip. Not only are water bandits and other vicious people gathered here, but it is also adjacent to the southern border, and in the small town next to the Hundred Poison Valley and the pier, there are either Gu insects or poisons. , there are no good people.
Lin Jinhua had never been here before, so she was very careful when passing by, and gave all the protection fees that should be paid, just to avoid trouble.
Mo Xue came back after paying the protection fee, looked at Lin Jinyu sitting on the bed with a vigilant look, and only smiled and said: "Master, you can rest for a while, we paid the money, rest here tonight, and leave tomorrow morning. Moreover, Master Xu Chengqing, who has been staying in the south of the Yangtze River, has also come here with Zheng Qiong, and after a few more days of waterway, when we land, I am afraid that we will meet them." Mo Xue laughed.
When Lin Jinhua heard Xu Chengqing's name, she suddenly missed him.I haven't seen each other for several months, and I don't know what is going on with my father, brother and uncle's family now, whether the emperor will let them go.
After thinking about it, she didn't relax her vigilance and fell asleep, she just leaned on the bedside and smiled: "I won't sleep, let everyone work harder tonight, let's go overnight, after we pass here, we will rest tomorrow."
Seeing her persistence, Mo Xue didn't say any more, and immediately went to make arrangements, and the big boat that was originally moored slowly began to move.
Ah Bao was still talking, but Lin Jinhua's embroidering hands stopped suddenly.
She looked up in surprise: "Master, what's wrong?"
Lin Jinhua already felt that the red rainbow jade on her wrist was starting to get hot, which meant that a Gu worm was approaching.
"Stay by my side later, don't leave for half a step." She instructed.
Seeing her serious expression, Ah Bao immediately asked, "Do you want this servant to tell Sister Mo Xue?"
Lin Jinhua felt Gu's hot wrist, her eyes were slightly cold, and she stared at the candle that was suddenly swayed by the wind. Before Bao could speak again, she pulled out the dagger under the pillow and threw it in one direction. .
Ah Bao let out a soft cry, but Lin Jinhua took the opportunity to blow out the candle, and the whole room instantly became dark, leaving only a little noise from outside the ship.
Ah Bao followed closely beside Lin Jinhua, not daring to show his breath, his eyes staring hard at the surroundings, afraid that someone would suddenly approach, but Lin Jinhua slowly squeezed the red rainbow jade into his palm.
Controlling Gu worms is the most useful, so she will see if she can control the Gu worms here!
After thinking about it, a muffled groan suddenly came from the dark place, and then there was the sound of the clay pot being smashed.
Ah Bao covered his mouth to hold back the whisper, and slowly, he heard the man's suppressed and painful voice.
Lin Jinhua's grip became tighter and tighter, and the man's cries of pain became louder and louder until the door was pushed open.
After Mo Xue came in, she saw that the room was pitch black, but she also sensed the strange aura in the dark place. She drew out her sword and stepped forward to deal with him. Then she said: "Master, we are surrounded."
"Didn't you already pay the protection fee?" Ah Bao asked hurriedly.
"Those people are simply greedy and greedy. They want to take away all our money and our people." After Mo Xue finished speaking, she stepped forward to support Lin Jinhua: "Master, you and Abao first come from here." Take a small boat at the stern, and the people from Qingshan Village will follow you all the way."
"Then sister Xue, what about you?" A Bao asked worriedly.
"I'll drag them down for a while, don't worry, I'll come to you soon." After Mo Xue finished speaking, she led them to the stern, but at this moment, a big fire broke out from the deck, and those The vicious water bandits also came to kill them, and the number of them was not just a dozen or so they had seen before, but there were nearly a hundred of them, and most of the boats moored on the river belonged to them.They robbed passers-by in conjunction with Gu raisers and poison users. As for the boats on the river without owners, it was because their owners were all killed.
Someone came to kill in the cabin, Mo Xue could only block it first, and then said to Lin Jinhua: "Master, you go first!"
Lin Jinhua had a big belly, and the person who came was not a Gu Master. She didn't dare to drag Mo Xue down, so she had to drag the frightened A Bao to the stern of the boat, but the people from Qingshanzhai who were waiting for him at this moment had also been captured by the water bandits. killed.
"Master, you get on the boat, and this servant will block you!" Ah Bao picked up the knife on the ground as if dying, and shouted at the crowd: "You have the ability to charge me, don't attack the pregnant woman!"
Those water bandits looked at each other, touched their chins and sneered: "Then we will fulfill you!" After speaking, they came to kill with a knife.
Lin Jinhua grabbed the medicine powder in her hand and sprinkled it all out, and when the sword pierced Ah Bao's throat, she almost pulled her over, but accidentally hit her stomach, and immediately burst into tears from the pain.
"Master!" Ah Bao cried out in fright. Mo Xue heard the movement, but she was entangled and couldn't get through.
There were too many water bandits, hundreds of them, but they had less than twenty, so they couldn't beat them at all.
Seeing that the fire was about to swallow the entire ship, Lin Jinhua stared at the water bandits who were slowly approaching in front of him, and asked Abao, "Can you swim?"
"know a little……"
After Ah Bao finished speaking, Lin Jinhua pushed her into the water.
Seeing that the water bandit was going to chase him, he just sneered: "All the money is on me, and your target is me."
The leader of the water bandits stared at Lin Jinhua's face, which was extraordinarily coquettish under the light of the soaring fire.
"Come here, arrest her, kill the child in her stomach, and live!"
After speaking, the water bandits surrounded him.
Lin Jinhua secretly gritted her teeth, only touched her aching stomach, and before those people caught her, she turned her head and jumped into the river.
She knew that in the current situation, she jumped into the icy cold water, and she would surely die, but it was better than watching them kill her child. If she wanted to die, she would die with the child!
"master!"
Mo Xue screamed, turned around and wanted to jump into the water, but someone grabbed the back of her clothes directly: "She wants to die, and you want to die too?"
The indifferent and sarcastic voice made Mo Xue tremble instantly: "My lord!"
Mo Xue is in Zhao Huaiyan's memory, but it is only limited to those times when she was in the palace.
"Another one to die?" The leader of the water bandit looked at the man who came alone, and laughed sarcastically, but when he saw the man calmly pulled out the cold sword from his waist, his murderous aura suddenly rose.
Mo Xue didn't know why Zhao Huaiyan suddenly appeared here, wasn't he at the border of the Jin Dynasty?At least three or four days away from here...
But in fact, Zhao Huaiyan didn't know why he came here, he was heartbroken every day and every night, he must go back and grab Mu Baihua, let him give him the antidote!
After he thought about it, he raised his sword and went up to kill. Mo Xue also took the opportunity to jump into the lake, rescued Lin Jinhua, and put him on the boat. Abao also climbed up before he could swim far.
The three of them were in a small boat, which was too eye-catching, but when those people were about to chase them, Zhao Huaiyan had already flew over, stood on the bow, and let the boat go forward quickly with the wind.
The water bandits wanted to chase again, but they were stopped by the leader: "That man was called 'Prince' just now."
"Could it be someone from the government? We don't care about it here." Someone asked.
"You don't need to chase any more, go back and report to me." After the leader finished speaking, he turned his head and left.
Lin Jinhua choked on a lot of water after falling into the water, and when she finally spit out the choking water, she saw Zhao Huaiyan who was sitting next to her, frowning and looking at her strangely.
She thought it was a dream, and smiled at him: "Huaiyan..."
"Who are you painted by Mu Bai?" Zhao Huaiyan looked at her face that was exactly the same as Mu Bai's, and asked coldly.
Lin Jinhua was slightly taken aback, is it really him?Not dreaming?
Seeing that she was still lying on the boat, she was sure that it was not a dream, and her grievances surged up in an instant, she got up and wrapped her arms around Zhao Huaiyan's neck and hugged him tightly: "Huaiyan, you are here."
"who are you?"
"It's your wife."
"Humph……"
"I already have your child in my stomach." Lin Jinhua said stubbornly, holding back tears.
Zhao Huaiyan frowned deeply, and pushed her away: "Are you Mu Baihua?"
"Of course, I was pregnant only after you kissed me. Do you want to admit that you are Chen Shimei?" Lin Jinhua bit her lips with tears in her eyes and asked him aggrievedly. His hands had already wrapped her in his arms.
