Chapter 21 Blocking in Jiangling House(2/2)
Someone came quickly from behind.
"Please listen to what I have to say."
This is a scribe without armor, followed by two guards, looking like he has just arrived.
He saluted Li Minghua, then saluted Magistrate Hu, and said with a smile: "Miss Minghua, Master Hu, we meet again."
Li Minghua and Magistrate Hu used torches to identify him and recognized him as one of Xiang Yun's retainers. One of the retainers that Xiang Yun had brought with him when he used the name of Southeast Road to aid Jiangnan Road.
Magistrate Hu said in surprise: "You are here too."
Li Minghua was not surprised at all, and said with a calm expression: "It's just the right time for you to come. When your family escorted our eldest daughter to Taiyuan Mansion, did our family ever have guards from one place to another?"
Your family is alienated from our family. You are not polite. The marriage of the Qi family and the Xiang family will make the Li family unhappy. The retainer did not take up the topic. He was not here to calm the relationship between the two families. He said straight to the point: "
Miss Minghua, the Governor has something to say to you, please come with me."
Avoiding the crowd, Li Minghua personally held a torch to shine. Li Minghua read the letter written by Xiang Yun. His expression went from shocked to nervous to slightly panicked, and he held the letter for a long time without speaking.
The retainer observed the words and took out the token given by the old manager of Jiannan Road: "Miss Minghua, the eldest lady has already set off, and the second master and your father are also accompanying you."
Li Minghua raised his head and looked at him: "Uncle Xiang wants me to go too?"
The retainer smiled and said: "The Governor didn't mean that. He just wanted to say hello to the young lady. The Fourth Master probably wanted to tell the young lady about you, but the trip is in a hurry and the young lady considered that it was a family matter and it was inconvenient to take you with me."
"
Li Mingqi, this girl is still like this, Li Minghua smiled.
"The Governor is just saying hello to you to let you know what Governor Qi and the others are doing, so as to avoid any conflicts." The retainer said, "The Governor said that Miss Minghua is a smart and astute person, and she has a thorough understanding of the world. Regarding
What he said..."
He pointed to the letter in Li Minghua's hand.
The letter stated very straightforwardly that Han Xu colluded with the queen to murder the late emperor Cui Zheng and the third prince, and blackmailed the empress dowager and the young emperor to steal the country. The defense had been suffering for a long time. Now he and Qi Shan were going to use their marriage as an excuse to go to the Qing Dynasty in the capital to kill the traitors.
.
"The Governor Mingming said that Miss Hua has already had her thoughts in mind, so we don't need to say more."
Li Minghua was silent. The news about the assassination of the late emperor at the Songzhou Night Banquet came. Even as a teenage girl, she did not believe that such a thing existed in the world. The death of the late emperor must have something to do with the queen.
However, she is only a teenage girl, and she does not dare to say that she has seen the world clearly. She will not speak or act rashly until she sees clearly.
"Miss Minghua, time is pressing, so we'll leave first." The doorman said, "I'd also like to ask Miss Minghua for a favor."
Li Minghua looked at him: "What?"
The retainer pointed to the fortress over there: "The Chu army is the army of the Marquis. In order to avoid disturbing the enemy, I asked Miss Minghua to help me."
Li Minghua looked at Baozhai and said nothing.
The guest said nothing more, handed the torch to Li Minghua, bowed and left, walked a few steps and then turned back.
"Miss Minghua, although the governor didn't say much, I still want to take the liberty to say a few words." He said, "Now is the time when the world is undergoing great changes. The situation is changing. An insect can become a dragon, and a dragon can become an insect. Miss Minghua, because of the sword,
Now that South Road is here today, Jiannan Road can also be made more powerful because of Miss Minghua."
After saying this, he strode away and disappeared into the night without waiting for Li Minghua's answer.
Li Minghua held the torch in one hand and Xiang Yun's letter in the other. He was stunned for a moment, then lit the letter on the torch and flicked his hand, and a ball of fire rose up and turned into ashes.
"Miss Minghua." Magistrate Hu asked from a distance.
Li Minghua held the torch and turned around: "Master Hu, let them pass."
...
...
The locust let out a strange cry, turned around and sprayed the companion next to him with saliva in his face.
"Haha, they retreated!" he shouted, "These grandsons really don't dare to cause trouble!"
After shouting, he spat again and called his companions.
"Come on, catch up! We haven't checked yet. Don't even think about passing by us!"
His companions did not join in the noise as before, and no one responded. Instead, someone pulled him.
"Boss," the man said, "some people retreated, but there are still many people surrounding us."
Tu Locust was stunned for a moment, looked outside, and cheered: "Those are Miss Minghua's people, one of our own! They are here to protect us."
Zhou Yan did not speak, but gave a signal to the sentry. A moment later, he heard a sharp sound breaking through the air, followed by a shout.
