Chapter 228
"Don't make a sound, take us out of the city, or you won't be able to breathe fresh air in the next second." Xia Qian's cold and fierce tone sounded in his ears with a voice that only the driver could hear clearly, holding The dagger's hand tightened unconsciously.

"Woman, please, forgive me." The coachman was dumbfounded as soon as Xia Qian's dagger was pressed against his neck. He is just a coachman who specializes in helping people pull goods, and he didn't expect to be taken away today. The knife is held hostage.

"If you want to survive, just do as I say." Xia Qian's hands were tight and tight. She didn't have much time to chat with the groom, because the carriage, which was no more than ten meters away, was about to be inspected.

The driver shook his head and nodded heavily, not even daring to take a breath, and could only continue driving the carriage slowly as usual.

The carriage stopped suddenly before it moved half a meter. Xia Qian, who was squatting at the door in the carriage, was startled for a moment. Why did she stop suddenly before reaching the door, and carefully lifted a small corner of the curtain.

There were a total of five carriages in this group, and it turned out that the leading carriage stopped, and a groom in his 30s was nodding and bowing his head, greeting the official who guarded the city gate warmly.

"Guan Ye, I often ship goods, and today there is another batch of goods that need to be sent to neighboring countries in a hurry. I hope Guan Ye can make it easier for me."

"Conveyor?" The official waved the whip in his hand, stared at the driver, looked left and right, suddenly pointed at the row of carriages and shouted sharply, "Open all of them for inspection, if you let me inspect the harboring criminals, That's a capital offense."

"That's right, that's right, what the official said is absolutely right. Yuan always takes goods on this road, so he understands the rules." The driver surnamed Yuan smiled and beckoned the official to follow him to check. At the same time, he signaled to the entourage standing next to the vehicle to open the door quickly.

The first carriage, opened by the official, was filled with high-quality silk, the second carriage was filled with the scent of tea, and the third carriage felt dazzling as soon as the official entered the door.

After concentrating on his mind, he took a closer look, and there was a flash of light in front of him. The carriage was full of exquisite and high-quality jade articles, and the most eye-catching thing was a luminous pearl in a wooden box.

The crystal clear green beads were shining with a faint green light, and they were even more dazzling in the night. The official was almost drooling at the sight. Famous officials are in poor hands.

Immediately, the officer who was still serious and rigorous showed a joyful smile on his face, and while holding the bead, he praised, "Well, yes, it is indeed a high-quality bead. Well, you can go there."

"Oh, thank you, sir. It's just a trifle. After all, Yuan always has to go this way. I hope you can take care of me in the future." He took out a bright jade pendant and put it into the hand of the official.

Satisfied with the two valuable items, the official turned around and walked towards the gate of the city, but he stopped suddenly after taking three steps and walked back, walking to the side of the fourth carriage, making people unpredictably open the carriage door quickly , After finding a lot of baggage inside, he immediately closed the door and said to the driver.
