Chapter 43 I Saved Him, 1000 Taels
Ding Guohou sent the old lady's concierge, butler Gou, to pick him up.

Jiang Jinyue sat quietly in the carriage, but she was so angry behind her back that her teeth hurt.

Li Zongyu, in the final analysis, is still unwilling to give her 300 taels. He just walked away with the rhythm and didn't realize it. Now that I think about it, the result is that 300 taels was exchanged for a useless palace card. The key is that I have to pay it back when I leave the palace tomorrow. .

She was frustrated to find out that she couldn't beat Li Zongyu at all.

Upright, there was a light sound from the roof of the carriage.

Steward Gou, who was driving in front of the carriage, had no martial arts background and was far away. He didn't notice that Jiang Jinyue was sitting in the carriage, holding the soft knife hidden in his waist.

At this moment, the speed of the carriage slowed down and began to stop and go.

"Butler Goji, what's wrong?"

Jiang Jinyue paid attention to the movement on the roof of the car, and asked softly.

Butler Goji reined in the carriage, turned around and said.

"Miss, the officers and soldiers in front have set up a roadblock checkpoint, I don't know what to check."

"Please ask the housekeeper to go and find out, the old lady is probably still waiting for me to go back."

"Okay miss."

Butler Gou got out of the carriage, and Jiang Jinyue asked Lu Luo, who was next to him, to guard the door.

She was the only one left in the car, Lu Luo had just sat firmly on the front of the car, when the person on the roof floated silently to the left side to the direction of the shops on the street.

"knock."

The compartment on the left was knocked with extremely light force.

"Who?"

Jiang Jinyue suppressed her voice and asked through the curtain of the carriage.

The little girl Luluo was looking at the grand scene all over the street, and didn't pay attention to the conversation here.

There was a pause outside the door, and a faint smell of blood came in.

"Girl, can I..."

Before the man outside finished speaking, Jiang Jinyue quickly got up, pulled out a soft knife, stretched out the curtain of the carriage window, and clasped the edge of the knife on the neck of the man outside.

She opened the curtain with the other hand and looked up.

There were two men standing outside the car window, one was a thin boy about ten years old, different from the relatively flat outline of Rongkun people, this little boy had high browbones, deep outline, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and naturally curly hair.

And the big man who was held by her with a knife looked about twenty, with an ordinary appearance. He obviously didn't expect the young lady who was alone in the car to be able to use martial arts. He was slightly stunned. .

"Say, who? Who sent it?"

Jiang Jinyue's eyes were condensed, and she looked at the man by the knife without moving.

The young man next to him has no internal strength, his expression is slightly unnatural and does not move, so he is not in danger. The biggest hidden danger now is the man at the end of his sword.

"I don't want to kill people."

The man's Adam's apple was pushed up and down, and he looked at Jiang Jinyue fixedly.

"As long as the girl gives the young master a way out."

"I don't have a way to survive here, and I want someone to give me a way to survive."

Jiang Jinyue sneered: "You should take your young master to find someone else."

The sound of chaotic footsteps came from not far behind the car, obviously not only the officers and soldiers at the checkpoint in front were following the two people in front of them.

Jiang Jinyue withdrew the knife, the strong man wanted to say something, Jiang Jinyue turned the knife and pointed at the young man who had no martial arts.

She turned her face and said to the strong man, "If you don't leave, I will kill him."

The young man seemed a little abnormal, he just stared blankly at Jiang Jinyue pointing at his knife edge, without saying a word.

The housekeeper outside the car had already returned, and the night was dark, so he didn't pay attention to the two people beside the car leaning against the storefront.

"Miss, it is said that something was lost in the palace, and now the whole city is arresting the thief."

"Okay, I get it. Thank you for your hard work, Steward Gou. Let's wait here."

Jiang Jinyue's voice became clear again.

She squinted her eyes, afraid that Li Zongyu would rush back because of these two people. She stood by him, so naturally she would not go to rescue Li Zongyu's enemies.

Unexpectedly, the strong man whispered immediately.

"Miss misunderstood, the young master and I were not the main ones to be arrested tonight, but were locked in the inner prison of the imperial court. Someone set fire to escape tonight, and I took advantage of the chaos to escape with the young master."

Jiang Jinyue couldn't tell the truth of these words, because she knew that the inner prison was really set on fire, but did the two people in front of her direct and act on their own?

After the strong man finished speaking, he took out a black jade pendant from his pocket and handed it to Jiang Jinyue.

"Girl, you saved the young master today, and you will be thankful in the future."

Out of curiosity, Jiang Jinyue took the jade pendant.

A black jade pendant that was only two fingers wide was warm to the touch. Although it was dim, Jiang Jinyue could still touch it. The word "Phoenix" was clearly engraved on the jade pendant.

The man held his breath, even though the footsteps from the back of the street were getting closer, he still looked at Jiang Jinyue fixedly.

Now the only one who can save the boy in the street is Jiang Jinyue who has a carriage. There are checkpoints in front and chasing soldiers behind.

Jiang Jinyue raised her eyebrows, and said suddenly: "I'll save him, 1000 taels."

If Li Zongyu can do things like taking advantage of people’s dangers and robbing people, so can she. If he can deduct 300 taels for nothing, then she will double the amount and get back 1000 taels. Regardless of whether these two are the people Li Zongyu is looking for tonight, she can It's better not to suffer, and it can be scraped off Li Zongyu indirectly.

The strong man was taken aback.

The sound of chaotic footsteps was getting closer, Jiang Jinyue didn't say any more, and opened the rear compartment door to let people get in the car.

It was too late to say anything else at this moment, the strong man picked up the boy and stuffed it into the carriage, and said in a low voice.

"Young master, take care."

After saying that, he jumped onto the eaves, ran a few steps towards the group of officers and soldiers, and deliberately stepped on a tile.

This sound immediately attracted everyone's attention, and the leader of the team of officers and soldiers who were rushing this way immediately called out.

"who?"

After finishing speaking, he led the people to follow the strong man's footsteps...

The interior of the car was peaceful, the boy was like a piece of wood, his eyes were empty and dull, as if the person who just left had nothing to do with him.

The officers and soldiers chased the strong man away, and the checkpoints in front were relatively loose and the speed became faster. When it was Jiang Jinyue's turn to take the carriage, the sound of horseshoes sprinting from far to near, and a man and a half man was heard immediately. Half female voice.

"The Twelve Princes have said that the thief is not a strong man who just raised the eaves, but a sick and weak young man. You must not ignore it."

This voice sounded like an eunuch coming out of the palace.

All the officers and soldiers thought that the strong man just now was investigating the thief tonight, and there was already a group of people chasing them just now. Naturally, the rest of the nocturnal good people can be investigated or not. Now someone spreads the word that it is wrong, and the atmosphere is tense on the spot. up.

The eunuch didn't dismount, and seemed to want to rush to the next checkpoint, but when passing Jiang Jinyue's carriage, he suddenly reined in the reins.

"Who is sitting in the car? Why don't you get out of the car for investigation?"
