Chapter 392 Let’s talk after we get the things

Su Ying took out a lighting flashlight from her body and turned it on. Almost the whole area at the foot of the mountain was illuminated.

She stepped forward to check the identities of the men in black one by one, but there was nothing on these people.

She pinched open their mouths and saw that there were poison packets hidden inside, indicating that they were dead men.

Xiao Jin sent people to follow her, but their speed was not that fast. In order not to attract attention, those people also deliberately kept a certain distance from her.

Su Ying took out a signal bomb from her body and threw it into the sky. There was a "pop" in the sky, and the secret guard not far away quickly discovered it.

After waiting for nearly half an hour, the secret guard finally rushed over.

"See the Queen."

"Get up, these people are here to assassinate me, you can handle it yourself, I will continue on my way."

"yes."

After handing the man in black to the secret guard, Su Ying got on her horse and continued on her way.

As we approached the border of Jingzhou, it started to rain heavily.

Su Ying took out the air awning from the space to cover her body, so the rain could not reach her at all. It was not until dawn the next day that she saw the gate of Jingzhou City.

Looking from a distance, a thick black cloud enveloped Jingzhou City, as if it was about to crush Jingzhou City. It was so thick that people could not breathe.

Su Ying continued to drive forward and arrived in front of the city gate.

I don't know whether it was out of fear of the heavy rain, but there were many people queuing up at the city gate waiting to leave the city, and very few people went in.

In order not to attract attention, Su Ying changed into ordinary men's clothes when she approached the city gate. After arriving at the city gate, she handed her customs clearance spy into the hands of the official. The official let her in after seeing that there was no problem.

Xiao Jin said that Zhu Lin lived in the Chengshou Mansion. After asking passers-by for directions, Su Ying went to the Chengshou Mansion immediately.

Jingzhou's City Shoufu is located on the most prosperous street in Jingzhou City. Su Ying looked at the three characters "Chengshoufu" written in red gold on a black background and got off her horse.

But as soon as she got close, the officer guarding the door stopped her.

"Who is it? You can approach the city guard's mansion easily, why don't you leave quickly?"

"I want to see your city guard."

While talking, Su Ying took out the token on her body.

The guard was shocked when he saw the dragon pattern on the jade plaque. He immediately changed his expression and invited Su Ying to the room in the outer courtyard. "Please wait a moment. We will send a message to your lord right now."

The guard came back not long after he left. Following him was a middle-aged man. He was wearing a dark blue official robe, with a small goatee on his face, and a pair of slender eyes that looked bureaucratic.

shrewd.

"I have seen this gentleman before. I wonder if he is here to deliver the drawings?" Yi Kun asked directly.

"Yes, where is Zhu Lin?"

Yi Kun stood up and said: "My lord, I don't know. After arriving in Jingzhou, Lord Zhu worked day and night on the dam matter. He fell ill the day before yesterday and is still unconscious. I am very ashamed that I did not take good care of Lord Zhu."

Su Ying frowned, "Zhu Lin fell ill?"

"Yes, I am still recovering at home."

"I'll go take a look."

Su Ying stood up and was about to walk out, but Yi Kun stepped forward and blocked Su Ying's way.

"Don't worry, sir. Mr. Zhu is fine. He is just too tired and caught the wind and cold. He is still in a coma. The most important thing now is to repair the new dam as soon as possible. Just in case, please take the drawings first."

Come out."

Su Yingfeng gave Yi Kun a serious look, "I'm going to take a look. I can't waste this quarter of an hour."

Seeing Su Ying's persistence, Yi Kun accompanied her to the place where Zhu Lin rested.

When the maid opened the door to the guest room, Su Ying smelled a pungent smell of medicine.

Seeing Su Ying's frown, Yi Kun explained: "Because Mr. Zhu has contracted the cold and is not going crazy, the lower official ordered the doors and windows to be closed."

Su Ying didn't say anything, she just walked straight to the bed.

There was a person lying on the bed, it was Zhu Lin.

It's just that Zhu Lin's face at this time is completely different from the mean look he used to have. His face is extremely pale, and the color of his lips is so pale that he can't see clearly.

Su Ying reached out to check Zhu Lin's pulse and found that his Qi and blood were extremely weak. It was just a cold. How could it be so serious? She felt something was wrong.

She reached out to lift the quilt off Zhu Lin's body and was about to check what was going on with him. Yi Kun suddenly stepped forward and pulled the quilt over Zhu Lin's body.

"My lord, Lord Zhu has contracted the wind-cold. His body is already so weak. He must not catch another cold. Please forgive me."

Su Ying glanced at Yi Kun again, but did not insist anymore, but followed him to the study.

"I wonder what you call me, sir, and what position you hold in the palace?" Yi Kun asked.

"Served by the emperor."

Seeing that Su Ying didn't want to say more, Yi Kun didn't ask further questions, and just asked Su Ying to take out the drawings.

"Let's go to the dam first. I want to know what's wrong with this new dam."

Yi Kun did not refuse and directly asked someone to prepare the carriage.

"My lord please."

The dam is in the mountains, a certain distance from the city. In order to save time, Su Ying did not take a carriage but a horse.

Seeing that Su Ying was riding a horse, Yi Kun could not ride in a car, so he had to ask the official to bring a horse over.

In order to build the new dam, the imperial court opened a road out. Although it was a yellow mud road, it was much easier to walk than the mountain road.

When they rode all the way to Xinba, it was already approaching noon.

Su Ying stood on the hillside, took out a telescope and looked at the building not far away. The new dam should be over there.

When we went up there, there was still a lot of work being done on the construction of the new dam. Seeing Su Ying and the others coming, a man who looked like a foreman hurried over and nodded and bowed to Yi Kun with a flattering look on his face.

"Sir, why are you here? It's raining and the roads are muddy. Please don't get your shoes dirty."

Yi Kun glanced at him, "It is my duty to monitor the repair and completion process of the new dam. This is a person from the capital. You must not be rude."

As soon as the foreman heard this, his smile turned to Su Ying, "It turns out it's an official from the capital. It's really disrespectful. Don't worry, sir. There will definitely be no problems with the dam."

Su Ying didn't know much about construction. She just saw the workers working on the dam non-stop. At first glance, she couldn't see anything unusual.

"Didn't I say that there was something wrong with the new dam before and that it needed to be repaired internally? What? There is no problem now?"

The smile on the foreman's face froze, but he quickly recovered, "Yes, yes, it needs to be repaired. Now we are waiting for the original drawings from the court to be sent, so that we know how to repair it."

"Sir, you have also heard that the most important thing for the current plan is to get the original picture and then repair the problematic areas as soon as possible."

Su Ying nodded when she heard this, "Master Yi is right."

After a brief inspection, Su Ying followed Yi Kun down the mountain and returned to the city guard's mansion.

At this time, night fell and the sky had darkened.

Su Ying said she was hungry, and Yi Kun said that he held a small banquet for her at night, but Su Ying refused.

"No, bring the food to my room. After a simple meal, we will discuss how to repair the dam problem."

Yi Kun didn't refuse after hearing what she said, and asked his servants to bring the food to her in the guest room.

After the guest room door was closed, the attendant came to the study.

"Sir, the food has been delivered. This guy from the capital doesn't look like he's scheming."

There was no expression on Yi Kun's face. He didn't dare to show kindness easily to people from Beijing because he couldn't tell what the other person was thinking.

"No matter what, let's get the original picture first."
