Confused country poison concubine

Chapter 268
Yunzhong County, Grand Canal

In the night, the gurgling river was rushing, rolling towards the dark front.

Just as if the future and destiny of her and Kanfengbu were so dark that they couldn't see a ray of light.

Qiu Yebai was wearing a black cloak, standing quietly at the bow of the ship, letting the cold wind pass over her cheeks, looking ahead intently, as if she could find a little candlelight in the dark night and mist.

"My lord." Zhou Yu looked at her back and whispered with some concern.

A few days ago, they suddenly received a secret report that the imperial court issued a sea arrest document. In the document, your lord became a criminal official who colluded with water bandits and hijacked tributes. In the notice, there is another order - a shoot-to-kill order, as long as the local government finds the traces of the adults, they can shoot to kill.

This matter forced them to bring forward the schedule of returning to Beijing with the Ministry of Wind, and everyone was very worried about your lord.

Qiu Yebai gave a faint 'hmm': "Don't worry, I'm fine, whether it's a sea arrest document or a killing order, there are thousands of roads in the world, who in the world can block all my roads?"

But although she is not afraid of such threats, but then again.

She didn't know why she always felt that this matter was a little strange.

Especially when Bailichu let the arrest document and the killing order come down?
What is he trying to do?
The emperor doesn't care about things now, and the decision-making power of the empire is only in the hands of the empress dowager and Bailichu.

Although the Empress Dowager Lafayette has a lot of power, more of her power can only be realized through the tentacles of the Du family and the Mei family.

Although she seems to be the biggest master of the harem, she can nominally listen to the government behind the curtain, but she is not qualified to directly order the right to interfere.

The real supervisor of the country is the "princess" of the regent, and all government orders must be approved by him before they can be covered with jade seals.

She didn't understand whether Bailichu was really planning to watch to the end as he said at the beginning, or whether he had other considerations.

He is still useful to Bailichu, how could he not understand that this sea arrest official document almost cut off her original plan?

Qiu Yebai squinted her eyes, raised her head and stared coldly at the dark sky.

Regardless of whether Bailichu interrupted and watched, or had other plans, since she has decided to step into this bloody circle of power to participate in the competition, she will not let anyone manipulate her!
"My lord, there is still an hour before we will enter Huainan." Zhou Yu suddenly whispered behind her.

Qiu Yebai nodded lightly: "Notify everyone immediately, and all of them will go ashore in Huainan County and one county to change dry roads or change boats separately according to the original plan, and finally gather in Yun County and Ding County."

Both Yun County and Ding County are small counties developed from small villages near Shangjing. They are the places where the Gyeonggi camp is stationed, and they are only half a day away from Shangjing.

Once something happens, after she sends out a signal, the people watching the wind department can respond as quickly as possible.

Moreover, those two counties are where the Gyeonggi camp is stationed, and everyone thinks it must be a safe place, but the search is not as strict as other places, and the outside is tight and the inside is loose.

Zhou Yu nodded, hesitated for a moment, and said with a frown: "Your Excellency chose the second county as the place where the people from the Ministry of Watching the Wind temporarily stationed. "

Qiu Yebai nodded, and narrowed his eyes slightly: "That's right, Zifei, the situation in the capital is not clear now, although the Green Bamboo House has been sending out news, but I can't guarantee whether the Green Bamboo House is under surveillance, So if I take you there, if the situation is not right, I may still be able to escape with my own skills, but if I bring you, I am afraid that I will only be caught without a fight."

Although this was said bluntly, Zhou Yu knew that his lord was right. Except for Baobao and the people from the Hidden Sword Pavilion, there were not many people among them who could really help his lord.

There was a gloomy look in Zhou Yu Taohua's eyes, and then a quiet smile suddenly appeared: "My lord, you can go ahead without worry, my subordinates will keep an eye on all the brothers who watch the wind department, and will continue to let them step up training, and will not give You are causing trouble."

At such a time, the people watching the wind department are temporarily unaware of the harsh situation that they and their lord will face. They only think that their lord was framed for a while and will soon recover their innocence.

But once they found out about the serious situation the adults were facing, he couldn't guarantee that those who had vowed to seek justice for Qiu Yebai would turn around and report on Qiu Yebai.

After all, their biggest dream of following Qiu Yebai is to be able to feel proud one day.

And Qiu Yebai is now a prisoner, if he follows the prisoner, he may become an accomplice, an accomplice, it's not bad if he doesn't go to prison to question his crime, not to mention proud? !
Qiu Yebai naturally understood what Zhou Yu said. She stood with her hands behind her back, and suddenly said leisurely, "Zifei, thank you very much. As for you, you have more reasons to betray me than any of them, don't you?"

Looking at her slender back, Zhou Yu suddenly shook his head and chuckled: "Yes, the wish of this subordinate is to regroup and revive the prestige of the family. If the subordinate betrays the lord, but can be promoted and realize his wish, then the subordinate may I would betray my lord, what a pity..."

"What a pity?" Qiu Yebai asked.

Zhou Yu sighed lightly: "Unfortunately, even if you betray your lord and get an official position, the reputation of your subordinates is doomed to be forever linked to betrayal and framing. The subordinates used to be absurd and could be said to be young and ignorant, but if Bearing the reputation of betrayal, this subordinate probably won't have a chance to clean up in this lifetime, this subordinate is not for the sake of the adults, but for himself."

Qiu Yebai heard the words, turned to look at Zhou Yu quietly: "Zifei, thank you."

Although Zifei spoke so utilitarianly, she knew that he just didn't want to make her feel guilty and worried.

Zhou Yu's peach-blossom eyes curved beautifully and slyly: "Your Excellency, you don't need to thank me. In the future, you will ascend to the position of Governor-General, and it is enough not to forget you even if you are rich."

Qiu Yebai also curled the corners of her lips, the two looked at each other and smiled, everything was kept silent.

Bright flags are held high, and guests come like clouds.

It was already late at night under the curfew, and the green bamboo building was still lit with glazed glass, and the sound of graceful silk and bamboo could be heard endlessly.

"Is the guest staying at Mr. Tianqi's place today?" A young servant went up to the chess building with tea, and happened to see another short young servant coming down from the upstairs with a basin, so he thought of Madam Li Things to ask when asking him to deliver water.

Every guest who stays overnight must be registered, and the money for staying overnight is naturally different, and the safety of the young masters also needs to be guaranteed.
