Chapter 38 I’m afraid you won’t understand
Xiao Jin heard the noise and was about to get off the carriage when he suddenly met Su Ying's cool eyes.
Looking at Lin Zhuyu who was kneeling on the ground, he also frowned slightly.
Su Ying stood up and said to Xiao Jin with a look of dismay on her face, "You are your own little wife. You can handle it by yourself. Don't bother me with everything."
Lin Zhuyu seemed to have spotted Su Ying, so she almost rushed over and hugged her thigh, "Princess, please, I beg you, I really can't be happy any longer..."
"Then you beg Xiao Jin to go. Why are you begging me?"
Lin Zhuyu was clear in her heart. Now that Xiao Jin's legs were disabled, how could she be as powerful as Su Ying? Besides, if she begged Xiao Jin, Xiao Jin would never care about her.
"Princess, if the princess is willing to take in the concubine, the concubine is willing to exchange something important."
Su Ying glanced at her, "What?"
Lin Zhuyu looked mysterious and lowered her voice: "The evidence of my father's collusion with the eldest prince is their correspondence."
Lin Zhuyu was a concubine in the palace of the Minister of Industry. She was sent to the palace by the queen to be Xiao Jin's concubine. Although Xiao Jin had never been to her house, she was still his in name.
Su Ying continued expressionlessly: "Can that letter prove Xiao Jin's innocence and allow us to return to the capital?"
Lin Zhuyu choked, "Maybe, probably not possible."
"Then what am I going to do?"
Lin Zhuyu said anxiously: "What if, what if it works? I don't have much to eat, and I will definitely not cause trouble to the princess and the prince."
"Here's the letter, take it and take a look." Xiao Jin suddenly said.
When Lin Zhuyu heard that there was something going on, she quickly took out the letter paper hidden on her body.
Xiao Jin unfolded the letter and looked at it. The content of the letter was very cryptic. At first glance, others could not see anything strange, but Xiao Jin could see the connection between some things.
He put the letter away with a calm expression and looked at Su Ying, "You can keep it for now."
Su Ying snorted, "It's up to you, but I'll be the first to say something ugly. If she causes trouble or hurts my people, I'll crush her head right away."
Lin Zhuyu covered her head with both hands in fright, "Don't worry, Princess, I will never do anything stupid!"
Su Ying ignored her and found an open space to sit down.
Mrs. Jiang helped Cheng Ming, who had woken up, kneel down in front of Su Ying, "Thank you, madam, for saving my life."
Su Ying looked at the two of them, "You're awake, has your fever gone?"
Cheng Yang raised his pale face and said, "The fever has gone away when I woke up in the morning, and my body is no longer in serious condition. This is all thanks to Madam's medicine."
Su Ying nodded without humility, "You are just infected with the fever caused by wind and cold. Fortunately, you should take medicine in time, otherwise it will turn into lung disease, which will not be so easy to cure. Now that you are awake, let's go on your way."
"Thank you, madam. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know what to do tomorrow." Ms. Jiang wiped her tears and had not yet recovered from the panic of almost losing her son.
"It's okay. He's still weak now. These are the sesame seed cakes I bought in the city. Let's eat them." Su Ying took two sesame seed cakes and handed them to them.
Mother and son were unwilling to take it, but they refused again and again. Su Ying simply put the pancake in their hands and said, "Take it and eat it. Follow me and I won't let you lack the food."
The two of them thanked each other profusely and vowed secretly that if there was a chance in the future, they would do their best for Su Ying.
After Li Da and the others came out after replenishing the dry food supply, they distributed today's rations to the remaining prisoners and continued on their way after they were full.
Su Ying jumped onto the carriage, pulled the reins, flicked the whip, and the carriage started moving.
"Every year, the imperial court allocates funds to the Ministry of Industry to strengthen the Wujiang River's dams. Ten years ago, the Wujiang River flooded Linshui City, but the dams were still stable."
Xiao Jin's voice sounded behind him.
Su Ying didn't understand the situation between North Korea and China, "What does this matter have to do with us now?"
Xiao Jin said: "The money for strengthening the dam will be allocated at the beginning of the year every year. This year, Xiao Jue is responsible for it."
Su Ying raised her eyebrows and said, "You are saying that the two of them colluded to embezzle money from the court, which led to problems with the dam."
Xiao Jin nodded, "Although Lin Zhuyu's letter to me was written in a cryptic way, it roughly meant this. Lin Zhuyu would not have handed over all the chips at the beginning, so she was allowed to do so under her nose."
Su Ying looked back at him and said, "Are you trying to explain to me?"
Xiao Jin leaned against the car wall, his dark eyes lightly falling on her, "I'm afraid you can't understand."
Su Ying sneered, "I hate her for wasting my food rations."
Xiao Jin raised the corners of his lips, "Yes."
Su Ying glanced at him, always feeling that this dog man was yin and yang weird.
Zhuzhou is different from Yunshuicheng. Once you enter the jurisdiction of Zhuzhou, the temperature becomes very high. Walking around in the bright sun during the day can make you insolate.
At night, until it was completely dark, Li Da asked someone to find a flat open space to stay.
Su Ying jumped off the carriage and immediately looked for a water source. Along the way, she was surprised to find that there was not even a stream.
"I'll go to the front and look to see if there's any water."
Li Da has now turned a blind eye to Su Ying's behavior. Even if she wants to run away, he can pretend not to see her. After all, so many people have run away, but she is the only one left.
Su Ying untied the horses from the carriage, got on the horse and ran towards the foot of the mountain not far away.
Su Ying rode her horse to the foot of the mountain, and after going around for a while, she found a stream behind a relatively hidden stone crevice. The stream was quite small.
Su Ying got off her horse, made sure there was no one around, then entered the space, took out a water storage container and filled it with stream water in case of emergencies.
After filling up the water, Su Yingyou got on her horse and returned to the open space.
"There is a water source at the foot of Qiantou Mountain. Which one of you wants to go wash up with me?" Although Su Ying was not mysophobic, the smell of her body on such a hot day really made her eyes hurt.
"I want it, I want it, my mother-in-law, my mother-in-law, Ling'er and my mother-in-law are going to take a shower." Erbao was the first to raise his hand.
Su Ying looked at Erbao's little cat-like face and realized that this baby really needed a good wash.
"Then Ji'er will go too. I'll take you to wash first, and I'll come back later and change the others."
As she said that, she stepped forward and carried the two treasures onto the horse's back, then ran towards the foot of the mountain as soon as she held them in the horse's belly.
After arriving at the place, Su Ying took the two of them down and tied the horses to the side.
"Come one by one first. Auntie will take off your clothes first." Su Ying hugged Dabao first and took off his clothes. Just when she was about to take off his pants, Dabao's face turned red and his arms and legs turned red.
A small hand nervously grabbed Su Ying's hand.
"I, myself, can do it myself!"
Su Ying looked at his little red face, which was so cute.
"Okay, then you come carefully. The water here is shallow. Just sit on this big rock and don't move around. Auntie is going to wash my sister." Su Ying hugged Ling'er again and took out a cloth to wipe her face.
.
Just when she was washing seriously, she suddenly heard Dabao's exclamation.
