"Mrs. Kong." Zhao Jin took off his mask and lowered his voice, "I am Zhao Jin, Duke of Xuanping. I came here to save my wife and children."
Worried that Mrs. Kong would not believe it, Zhao Jin took out a piece of paper from his arms, which was exactly the piece of paper sent by Kong Wen. It was written by Kong Wen himself.
Madam Kong had naturally heard of the name of Duke Xuanping, and her husband occasionally mentioned it, but she had never seen him before, so she was not sure that Zhao Jin was Duke Xuanping.
She took the paper from Zhao Jin's hand doubtfully.
This piece of paper was a little thin, not big, and even wrinkled. When she spread it out and took a look, Mrs. Kong's eyes narrowed slightly and her hands trembled a little, "This, this is your husband's handwriting."
She covered her lips with one hand and barely suppressed her exclamation. She put away the paper and looked up at Zhao Jin with some hope, "I believe in the Duke and ask the Duke to save our family."
What Mrs. Kong said was that she was a member of the Kong family. She wanted Zhao Jin to save Kong Wen.
Zhao Jin did not agree directly, but said: "Madam, let's go out first. The matter of rescuing Lord Kong needs long-term consideration."
"But you are Master Kong's weakness now and cannot fall into their hands."
"Okay." Mrs. Kong regained her composure and raised her voice slightly, "Everyone, come out."
After a while, the two maids each held a child and walked out of the corner.
The children were very well-behaved and seemed to know that they were facing danger now. They opened their round eyes and did not speak.
Zhao Jin listened to the movement outside and whispered to Takeda: "You leave five people down, and the rest go out to muddy the water and don't let them notice."
"yes."
Zhao Jin looked at Mrs. Kong and said, "Madam, let's leave quickly."
"Okay." Mrs. Kong knew that the situation was urgent, so she didn't ask any questions. She picked up a child and walked directly to the window.
She opened the window with one hand and said to Zhao Jin: "Go out from here, and there is the back door not far ahead."
Zhao Jin nodded, took the girl from another maid, and then said to Seng Fan: "Seng Fan, go out and explore the situation first."
Hearing this, Seng Fan flexibly jumped out of the window.
After a moment, Seng Fan's voice came, "There is no danger outside."
"lady."
Mrs. Kong understood and carefully climbed out of the window with the child in her arms, followed closely by two maids.
After they all went out, Zhao Jin held the girl and crossed the window lightly.
The remaining few people left behind.
Everyone was trapped in the predicament in front, and no one noticed that the person had escaped from behind.
Zhao Jin and others left the Confucius Mansion through the back door smoothly, and then got on the carriage that had been prepared.
Seng Fan and others took Mrs. Kong to the inn, while Zhao Jin quickly returned to the Duke's Mansion to avoid being discovered.
A flare exploded in the air.
Takeda looked up and the teenagers retreated one after another.
Only then did the leader of the men in black realize something was wrong. He looked at the door that was still closed and shouted sternly: "Don't be obsessed with fighting, hurry in and take a look!"
After hurriedly resisting for a few times, the men in black rushed into the room one after another. There was no one inside except for the wide open window.
"Damn! I've fallen into a trap!" The leader of the men in black cursed.
Immediately afterwards, he walked out quickly, and could only see the backs of Takeda and others walking away.
"Chasing?"
"What are you chasing after?" the leader of the men in black said fiercely: "If it gets too big and others find out, we won't be able to live with it!"
"Who the hell are you?!"
The Seventh Prince's man tightened his grip on the knife in his hand and asked sternly.
"idiot!"
The seven or eight people who were scolded for no apparent reason were even more unconvinced.
The bearded man was about to yell loudly, but he heard the other party say: "We are the prince's people, and they clearly used you as guns just now!"
"Now, none of us can explain it!"
The target of the stalking disappeared, and the target of the assassination was rescued.
Both groups of people will not be punished when they return.
The bearded man was immediately choked. They never expected that this person was actually from His Highness the Crown Prince.
"Look for them immediately! They must not have gone far yet! Remember, be quiet!"
…
Seng Fan and others first took Mrs. Kong to the inn, then quietly left through the back door of the inn, and then cautiously entered the Duke's mansion.
The place in the mansion was very large, so Zhao Jin directly designated a courtyard for Mrs. Kong and several people.
Mrs. Kong took the two children in her hands and knelt down to Zhao Jin with a plop, "My lord, I can't thank you enough tonight."
"But, I still have an unkind invitation."
Zhao Jin looked at Mrs. Kong's wet eyes and sighed lightly, "I can only try my best."
Hearing these words, Mrs. Kong couldn't help but shed tears from her eyes, "I thank you, Mr. Guo, thank you!"
As she spoke, Mrs. Kong bent down and kowtowed to Zhao Jin.
Duke Xuanping was willing to agree to her help, and Mrs. Kong was extremely grateful.
"Madam!" Zhao Jin quickly helped the person up with quick eyes and hands, "Master Kong devoted his whole life to the people. I am just helping as much as I can."
"However, it is best for Mrs. Kong to stay in the courtyard and not go anywhere."
Mrs. Kong calmed down and forced a smile, "Don't worry, Lord, I will prevent them from stepping out of this courtyard."
"Okay, madam, please rest first, I won't disturb you." Zhao Jin slightly cupped his hands towards Madam Kong.
After saying that, he turned around and left.
The child who had always been obedient finally couldn't help it when Zhao Jin left and only familiar people were left around him.
The little girl pulled Mrs. Kong's sleeve, raised her head and asked, "Mom, why are we hiding here?"
The girl was eight or nine years old and understood some things. She could vaguely tell that something was wrong at home.
"Where's daddy? Where's daddy?" There was a hint of fear in the little girl's voice.
Mrs. Kong's eyes were red, she held a child in one hand and said softly: "Daddy is catching bad guys. Shu Shu and Tan'er must be obedient. We can't cause trouble to daddy."
"Mom, isn't it dangerous to catch the bad guys?" The boy's immature face showed worry.
Mrs. Kong reached out and caressed the side of his face, "Yes, so Tan'er must be good and not allowed to leave the yard during this period."
"good."
The two children nodded solemnly, "Daddy has gone to catch the bad guys. Shushu/Tan'er will be good and won't cause trouble for daddy."
"Okay, be good." Mrs. Kong reluctantly suppressed the astringent feeling in her throat.
In the study room, Zhao Jin sat on a chair, his brows darkening.
"The prince was involved in this matter."
"Prince?" Seng Fan opened his eyes wide, "Kong Wen had suspected that the prince was involved in this matter, but the prince..."
The private production of salt is too important, and the flow of the private salt is still unknown.
Salt and iron often make people think of rebellion. What is the use of the prince's salt?
