Chapter 214: This girl will make sure you never come back!
Su Yiwen was puzzled, but his expression remained calm:
"Let's go inside and talk."
The two of them sat down, and Lin Rong slowly told them his reasons:
“Sir, let me first tell you about this Miss Xiu.
The wife of the Marquis of Zhenxi, the mother of Miss Xiu, gave birth to Miss Xiu prematurely in the seventh month of pregnancy and died after giving birth to Miss Xiu.
Marquis Zhenxi was afraid that he could not keep the child, so he sent Miss Xiu to a nunnery on the day she was born. Miss Xiu grew up in the nunnery.
The eldest son of the Xiu family, Xiu Lingce, told me that Miss Xiu could not go home until after her fifteenth birthday.
Calculating the time, Miss Xiu should have been home not long ago, no more than two years.
According to Master Xiu, the people in the nunnery were not nice to Miss Xiu.
I was at her place just now and saw that the people she brought with her were both talented in literature and martial arts, and they were very respectful to her. "
Then, Lin Rong told Su Yiwen in detail about Xiu Luoran’s plan to build a warehouse.
“Sir, from what I heard from Miss Xiu, this is her own business, and her family did not interfere, which shows that Miss Xiu is very capable.
She had just returned home, and her skills must have been learned in the nunnery.
The people in the nunnery treated her badly, which means Miss Xiu had a strange encounter and met a strange person. "
Su Yiwen has been in officialdom for a long time and has seen countless people.
Seeing that Xiu Luoran had an extraordinary demeanor and conversation despite his young age, he agreed with Lin Rong's words.
Lin Rong continued, "Sir, here comes the point."
Su Yiwen immediately listened carefully, not missing a single word.
"Miss Xiu's elder brother, my close friend Xiu Lingce, has a close female friend whom he loves very much, she is a princess.
They were about to discuss marriage, but Xiu Lingce was injured and broke his leg on the battlefield, so he proposed to break up.
No matter how the princess tried to comfort him, beg him, or say that she didn't despise him, Xiu Lingce just refused to get married. The princess was already twenty years old.
More than two months ago, Xiu Lingce and the princess got married. "
Lin Rong paused for a moment and continued:
“When we were chatting, we talked about the Third Prince, and I said that both he and Xiu Lingce had broken their legs, which was a pity for their best years and future.
Do you know what Miss Xiu said? "
Su Yiwen asked hurriedly: "What did she say?"
"She said, yes, things in the world...are impermanent."
After Lin Rong finished speaking, he looked at Su Yiwen.
Su Yiwen stared at Lin Rong and said, "Xiu Lingce was very stubborn. He was afraid of getting his beloved involved and refused to get married, but now he is getting married.
Does that mean his leg is healed?"
Lin Rong smiled but said nothing.
Su Yiwen added: "When Miss Xiu said 'things are unpredictable', it might not be about her brother's broken leg, it might also be about her brother's leg being healed.
If Miss Xiu's brother's leg can be cured, then that person's leg may also be cured."
Lin Rong nodded.
Su Yiwen was very excited. If the Third Prince's leg was really healed, then what would the Second Prince have to do?
He rubbed his hands and walked around the room in circles.
He suddenly stopped and said, "Brother Lin, this is just our guess.
You say, if we guess wrong, won’t everything be over? "
"No, sir."
"why?"
Lin Rong smiled: "Mr. Zhang, the current governor of Ningyang Province, is Miss Xiu's uncle."
Su Yiwen didn't react for a moment:
"so what?"
“Sir, Xiu Lingce is the third prince’s study companion, and they are still often together.
No matter what the outcome will be, Xiu Lingce will definitely not let his uncle suffer any loss."
Su Yiwen's eyes lit up: "You mean, we just need to follow Lord Zhang's lead?"
"Correct."
"good idea."
……
Thanks to Lin Rong's help, the warehouse that Yu Zongqian wanted to build was quickly registered with the government, and all that was left was to clean up and decorate it.
Lin Rong, in his capacity as an official, invited the best local bricklayers and carpenters to help Yu Zongqian.
It won't be long before the warehouse here is built.
With the help of government officials, no one dared to cause trouble for Yu Zongqian.
Su Jie has been under house arrest. Even if he is released, he probably won't dare to have any ideas about the house again.
Xiu Luoran said to Yu Zongqian:
"I'm going to Ningyang Province to visit my second uncle. If it's convenient, I'll visit Lord Lei, and then I'll return to Beijing.
If you encounter any problems in the future, you can look for my second uncle or Lord Lei."
Yu Zongqian said respectfully:
"I got it."
Xiu Luoran gave him another 1 million taels of silver:
"Spend when you need to. Many times, problems that can be solved with money are not really problems."
Seeing Xiu Luoran was about to leave, Lin Rong quietly asked Xiu Luoran:
"Miss Xiu, if I meet Master Zhang, can I say that we are friends?"
Xiu Luoran smiled: "You are my eldest brother's friend, so you are naturally my friend as well.
I am very kind to my friends, but of course, I will never be soft on my enemies."
After Xiu Luoran finished speaking, he rode away on his horse.
She is hitting me.
Lin Rong felt it was very funny that he was actually threatened by a little girl, but he was not angry at all.
Xiu Luoran met Lei Hanting, but did not see his second uncle Zhang Xuwei, because Lei Hanting gave him a task, asking him to go to the countryside to supervise the workers digging canals.
In fact, Lei Hanting was helping Zhang Xuwei gain political achievements.
Xiu Luoran was very happy. She promised Lei Hanting that when her warehouse was opened and the caravan started transporting goods, Lei Hanting's goods and letters would be given priority in transportation and protection, and would only be charged half the price.
Lei Hanting listened to Xiu Luoran's words and said with a smile:
"Are you obsessed with money? Are you still short of money?
I helped your uncle so much, I thought you wouldn't take my money."
Xiu Luoran also smiled: "Master Lei, human feelings are human feelings, and business is business."
Lei Hanting: "Thank you then."
He just wanted to make Xiu Luoran happy, so he wouldn't care about that little money.
Xiu Luoran said goodbye to Lei Hanting and started rushing to the capital without stopping.
All the way, she was thinking about the meaning of Lin Rong's last few words and the hints Lei Hanting gave her.
Xiu Luoran didn't expect that the Second Prince Yi Jingshi's hand could reach so far that many officials from the Southern Province were pulled over by him.
It seems that after returning to the capital, I should ask my eldest brother to tell the Third Prince to be on guard against rebellion by the forces in their Southern Province.
Tayun is truly a divine horse, it has the power to run fast. Normally, its speed is two to three times that of an ordinary horse.
In an emergency, it can reach five times the speed.
Xiu Luoran was anxious to return to Beijing, so he ran very fast on the cloud.
Three days later, Xiu Luoran discovered that she was being followed by not one or two people, but more than a dozen people.
Seeing that Xiu Luoran had discovered them, the group no longer hid and began to chase her openly.
Although they were far away, Xiu Luoran could still see clearly that this group of people were carrying weapons, including swords, bows and arrows.
It seemed that these people were here to kill her.
Haha, is this girl so easy to kill?
According to Stepping Cloud's speed, it will take less than two days to reach the capital.
Looking at the person following far behind, Xiu Luoran was very angry.
Damn it, you just kill anyone you don't like. Do people without ability deserve to be bullied by you?
In fact, looking at the entire Tianhe Dynasty, there are really not many horses that can catch up with Tayun. Xiu Luoran can easily leave these people behind.
Xiu Luoran thought that these people were sent to track and kill, so they should have some skills.
If we let them go back, one day they might go and assassinate my eldest brother or my father.
To be kind to your enemies is to be cruel to your own people.
Xiu Luoran would definitely not let them go. This was not the equal society of her previous life. This was an era where imperial power was supreme.
Even an equal society is sometimes unequal, let alone the cruelty under imperial rule.
Xiu Luoran asked Ta Yun to speed up and slow down to keep the people behind him hanging.
Seeing the mountains appearing in the distance, Xiu Luoran had an idea:
"Tayun, let's go up the mountain. Don't run too fast. You have to be evasive and pretend that you didn't notice them and were discovered by them, so as to lead them up the mountain."
Xiu Luoran: I will make sure you never come back!
