The daily life of a charming girl who made a fortune in ancient times

Chapter 149 Meeting in a narrow road

Seeing Lin Ruyu's appearance, there is something Shen Ge doesn't understand: the He Jiongming, the son of King An, who is dressed like a dog outside and smiles falsely, is the person who pretended to be An Ziyuan and killed Lin Ruyu in her dream .

Shen Ge raised his hand to hold Lin Ruyu's trembling hand grasping the window lattice, pushed the window shut with her, and then wrapped her in his arms.

My daughter-in-law, of course I have to protect myself.As long as the animal outside is slaughtered, they can get married.

The moment the window was closed, the eagle eyes of the guards guarding the restaurant's entrance fell precisely on the window.At the same time, He Jiongming also looked over.

Lin Ruyu in the room didn't know anything about the outside world.Her boiling anger and racing heart gradually subsided and calmed down in Shen Ge's arms.

He Jiongming was surrounded by local officials and people and boarded the carriage, and the guards in front of the inn withdrew to protect He Jiongming from entering Xuanzhou City.

The city gate was reopened, and the sound of horses and horses came through the window into the private room of the restaurant, awakening a pair of beauties who were embracing each other.

Lin Ruyu's thick eyelashes trembled, making Shen Ge's chin itchy.Shen Ge was thinking about how to make her happy, so he rubbed his chin against her tender face, "Is it itchy?"

You haven't grown beard stubble yet, what's itching?However, Shen Ge's breath smelled nice and warm, which made Lin Ruyu feel at ease.She likes to be next to him, but they are not married yet, and they are outside, so it is not appropriate.Lin Ruyu gently pushed him away, and sat back by the charcoal brazier.

Shen Ge peeled off a soft chestnut and brought it to Lin Ruyu. Seeing her take it and eat it obediently, Shen Ge felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart that was more satisfying than eating chestnuts himself.

The two tacitly peeled one and ate the other, and neither of them mentioned He Jiongming.

In order to show his diligence and simplicity, He Jiongming did not stay in the prefect's mansion that the prefect cleaned for him, but stayed in the Xuanzhou Houya official residence together with Anzhou officials.

He Jiongming didn't live in the prefect's mansion for the convenience of his actions. After all, the prefect's mansion was full of Zhu Mengzhen's eyeliner.

After the door was closed, the gentle smile on He Jiongming's face disappeared instantly, and his brows and eyes were full of irritability.

His face was thinner than An Ziyuan's, and his eyebrows and eyes became more slender and refined.It's just that this exquisite face, paired with gloomy eyes and pale complexion, reveals not gentleness, but a serpent-like coldness.It's creepy to be stared at by those eyes.

At this moment, Dai Xia, the eagle-eyed guard standing in front of He Jiongming, was in a state of horror, which made him wish he could immediately draw a knife and kill that brat named Shen Ge who killed Feng Chun and Lin Chun.

The tall, black and strong guard Jin Qiu walked in, not affected by the stagnant atmosphere in the room at all, and reported in a rough voice, "My lord, Lin Dong is here."

He Jiongming pulled the left sleeve of the python robe, and ordered lightly, "Let him in."

Jin Qiu went out to pass on the message, Dai Xia with the eagle eye immediately stepped aside, and the thin and withered Lin Dong entered the room, cupping his fists and saluting, "My lord."

He Jiongming picked up the official document on the table and asked casually, "How is the progress?"

Sent by the prince to Xuanzhou to kill Shen Ge and Shi Qiqing, staring at the Lin family's Lin Dong who did not complete the task, he felt very guilty, "Dongzhu Shi Qiqing went to Sanshan Academy to give lectures, Shen Ge opened a teahouse and auction house in Xuanzhou, They are surrounded by expert protection, and their subordinates failed to succeed in several night spies. The Lin family sent their slave Fang Caiwang to the Xuanzhou Prison. After the Matou Mountain bandit case was found on Xu Luyuan and Fan Genyuan, the clues came to light. Broken. In the past few days, the detoxification pills distributed to the counties are all made by the Lin family medicine store. Another thing is that Lin Ruyu, the daughter of the Lin family, is engaged to Shen Ge..."

"Snapped!"

The thick official document fell heavily on the table, and Lin Dong shrank his neck in fright, and dared not speak.

He Jiongming raised his narrow and gloomy phoenix eyes, and said angrily, "Lin Ruyu and Shen Ge are engaged?"

Lin Dong swallowed, and replied in a low voice, "...Yes."

"when?"

This... Lin Dong thought carefully, "Ten days ago."

He Jiongming's thin lips slowly turned up, and he sneered, "Okay, very good!"

The prince didn't look good at all, so Dai Xia took a step back quietly, letting the huge Jin Qiu block him.

After He Jiongming sneered, he asked again, "Is Du Chenghou making any moves?"

Du Chenghou, who led the troops to guard Duanya Mountain at the junction of Xuanzhou and Shezhou, was the most troublesome Jiangnan guard for Prince An's Mansion.The two officials Du Chenghou and Zhu Mengzhen, one civil and one military, constituted the biggest obstacle for King An to separatize Jiangnan.

Lin Dong replied, "Since October, Du Chenghou has intensified his military training, and the number of troops stationed on Duanya Mountain has increased from [-] to at least [-]."

He Jiongming frowned, "Where did the extra thousand soldiers come from?"

"It's... a strong man who survived the flood in the Three States." After finishing speaking, Lin Dong's thin and withered body shrunk, wishing he could clump into a ball.

It is really up to people to plan things, but it is up to God to make things happen.

The prince racked his brains and planned to blow up the Wolong embankment to engulf more than ten counties in the three prefectures, displacing the people in three weeks.These strong men who have lost their homes and relatives have nothing to worry about, and they can work hard as long as they are given food. They have become King An's shield against Xingyang.

Unexpectedly, these shields fell into the hands of the imperial court and turned into spears in the hands of Emperor Qianchang, which made He Jiongming furious.
He gritted his teeth and cursed, "Shen Shangzhi!!!"

Fu Yougui, the counselor who had been silent all this time, said with a smile, "The soldiers and horses that Du Chenghou practiced day and night will fall into the hands of the crown prince sooner or later, and the crown prince will only think that he is recruiting troops for you."

Seeing that the son still had a look of hesitation on his face, Fu Yougui persuaded him again, "It is not easy to win four thousand soldiers, but Xie Yao alone is enough to destroy four thousand soldiers."

He Jiongming felt a little more at ease when he thought of the scene of four thousand soldiers and horses lying dead in the mountains.

Fu Yougui persuaded the son and continued to make suggestions, "Du Chenghou dared to increase his troops. It must be Shen Shangzhi who came back to Beijing and spoke to Emperor Qianchang and gave Du Chenghou a secret order. The current situation is indeed not good for Anzhou, but it is not good for the son. It is a matter of life and death. You are not yet [-] years old, and if you keep the green hills, you will not be afraid of running out of firewood."

Father Wang has already known his destiny, but he is only 29 this year.The father is in a hurry, but he can figure it out slowly.He Jiongming calmed down a lot, and his phoenix eyes turned to Fu Yougui, "This trip to Xuanzhou can't be in vain, sir 'collect' Zhu Mengzhen's criminal evidence, I want to hold a feast for the people of the three states to thank the Xuanzhou aristocratic families and merchants who have contributed money and efforts to relieve the disaster .”

When Fu Yougui saw that his master had figured it out, he bowed his hands respectfully and said yes.

After Fu Yougui withdrew, He Jiongming asked Lin Dong again, "How many people protect Shen Ge?"

Lin Dong replied, "More than ten people are well-trained masters. The three people who protect Shen Ge closely are not weaker than their subordinates."

In this case, it is impossible to kill him without anyone noticing, so kill him openly.He Jiongming ordered, "Arrange a crime and send Shen Ge to Xuanzhou Prison."

"Yes." Lin Dong agreed and withdrew.

After arranging Shen Ge's end, He Jiongming thought of the little fox of the Lin family again, went back to the dormitory and changed into casual clothes, left the state office through the back door, wandered around the bustling streets, and slowly approached Qingyi Lane.

Before reaching the entrance of Tsing Yi Lane, he saw Shen Ge riding a horse, talking and laughing with a carriage, and walking towards him.
