Shopkeeper Song shouted that he was wronged. The jailer only replied to him lightly, who came here and didn't say that he was wronged? So he let him scream and ignored him. Shopkeeper Song wanted to show his identity.
Then he thought that he was a secret spy. I am afraid that the officials here had not even heard of the name Phantom, so he had to give up. His only hope now was that Wu Jun's Phantom could find out that he was "missing", and then find a way to "give him away"
"fish" out.
The phantom person in charge of Wu County indeed discovered that he was missing, and knew his whereabouts through an insider working as an errand in the county. However, knowing the whereabouts of Shopkeeper Song was of no help. Yu Fan and Mi Zhu were both honest and honest people, and they accepted their orders.
Due to the influence, no official at all levels dared to accept bribes. Without the approval of these two people, no one dared to let Shopkeeper Song come out. The person in charge had no choice but to pass the news upwards.
The speed of the phantom spy's delivery of the news was not unreasonable, and his handling of the matter was not unreasonable. The news was sent in duplicate to Jiangxia and Changsha. Because the news was so important, the person who delivered the news did not dare to delay, and the news was sent to Jiangxia and Changsha on the same day.
Arriving at Jiangxia, Liu Xin's fleet had already sailed eastward along the Yangtze River and disappeared. As for Changsha's phantom, it was waiting for Liu Xin and Jushu's arrival.
On the Jiangxia Pier, there was another person looking at the surging river water and letting out a long sigh. This person was Wu Ran who was living in the Fei family.
Last night, Fei Shuang quietly came to Wu Ran's room, asked the maids to leave, and said mysteriously: "Sister, I saw that person today."
Wu Ran was stunned and asked in surprise: "Who?"
Fei Shuang pointed upward with his little hands and said, "Sister, don't you remember? That year, my sister and I almost became his trophies."
Wu Ran was stunned for a long time, and sighed: "Oh, how close was it? We have obviously become his trophies, but for some reason, he let us go again."
"Wouldn't it be better to let us go? Does it mean that sister likes to be a trophy?" Fei Shuang covered his mouth and smiled, "Hehe, I know, sister must be alone every night and want to find a man to ride on and hold her down.
Already."
Wu Ran blushed, slapped Fei Shuang lightly, and said angrily: "You little girl, don't be ashamed, you are so old, you can still say such things."
Fei Shuang straightened his flat chest and said unconvinced: "What's wrong with me being young? Although I'm only ten years old, I've still been married!"
It turns out that Fei Shuang is only ten years old, not twelve or thirteen as Liu Xin thought, just because she has experienced too much and looks more mature than girls of the same age. If Liu Xin had known that Fei Shuang was only ten years old yesterday, she would not have
He would drive her away immediately, and would find a way to reconcile her and Lu Qiling on the spot. What kind of conflict would there be between two big kids?
Wu Ran was also amused by Fei Shuang, and laughed and said: "You are considered married? Do you know what happens between men and women?"
Fei Shuang has a perverse temperament and never gives in when it comes to bickering. Otherwise, he would not have fought with Lu Qiling over a wheatgrass grasshopper. Now, Wu Ran's words were full of ridicule in her ears, and Fei Shuang couldn't help but smile.
He blushed and said angrily: "I don't know? Then you know? I have slept with a man for a few days, but you..."
At this point, Fei Shuang suddenly couldn't speak anymore, because she saw two lines of tears already hanging on Wu Ran's face. Although the two of them often bickered, their relationship was very deep. Wu Ran cried when she saw her
After getting up, Fei Shuang said hurriedly: "Sister, I didn't mean it. Otherwise, you can beat me twice to vent your anger."
A little kid started crying after just a few words. If this spread, it would really make people laugh. Wu Ran quickly waved her hand and said, "Sister is not angry, but she was blinded by the wind and sand."
The doors and windows of this room were closed, where did the wind and sand come from? Fei Shuang did not dare to tell the truth, so he had to change the subject and said: "Sister, everyone says that you are destined to be wealthy, but I don't know which son will be lucky enough to marry my sister back home in the future.
"
Wu Ran didn't like to hear these things the most. However, she started crying for no reason just now. Now she couldn't help but say it again, so she could only perfunctoryly say: "My sister also believes the things they are doing to flatter her."
Fei Shuang said disapprovingly: "Who said it was nonsense? When I was in Chengdu, the fortune teller said that my sister was destined to be rich and noble. Later, Mr. Cheng also saw that my sister was very noble at a glance. Now there are rumors outside that my sister is destined to be rich and noble.
She will be a queen in the future. How can Liu Hao afford a noble person like my sister? It is a good thing that he left early, and he finally kept his sister intact."
Liu Zhang, Liu Hao and Fei Shuang are cousins, but Fei Shuang has no good impression of the Liu family. It can be said that the Liu family is responsible for his current situation. Therefore, when talking about the Liu family, Fei Shuang has nothing good to say.
Wu Ran sighed and stopped talking. She was very smart. This world belongs to men. Whether a woman is rich or not depends on the kind of man she marries. If she can marry a dominating prince like Liu Xin, she will not want to be rich.
It's difficult. If you marry a farmer, you will have to face the loess and turn your back to the sky.
In fact, she had heard clearly in Xiangyang that Liu Xin simply believed in wealth and wealth, and did not think she was a noble person. With Liu Xin's conclusion, the rumors about her had been silent for a while. However,
It has been rumored again recently, and it has become more and more serious. It has even reached the point where it is said that she has the destiny of being a queen.
Of course, all this is not groundless, it is the result of Wu Yi, Fei Guan and others working behind the scenes. The longer Wu Yi and Fei Guan work under Liu Xin, the more they know, and the more they see, the more they feel
Liu Xin has the possibility of proclaiming himself emperor. Of course it would not be harmful to them if Liu Xin proclaims himself emperor. After all, they are already working under Liu Xin. After Liu Xin ascends the throne, they will be rewarded. But Liu Xin has many talented people, and they
It is not easy to find a high-ranking official and a generous salary.
The two of them secretly figured out that they had no choice but to take the harem route, because each of them had an extraordinary-looking sister, which was an advantage. What's more, several people who were good at fortune telling had said that Wu Yuan was indescribably noble.
Cheng Yu said the same thing when he first saw Wu Ran, and asked Wu Yi for his opinion in person. Wu Yi's power alone was limited, so he roped in Fei Guan, and with the power of these two people
Let Wu Ran come into Liu Xin's sight first. Anyway, Fei Shuang is still young, and with Wu Ran as a matchmaker in the future, Liu Xin will pay attention sooner or later. In this way, it can ensure that Wu and Fei will continue to prosper.
Isn't it because Cai Jue of the Cai family in Xiangyang married into the Prefecture Mufu, and Cai Mao and Cai Zhong brothers became eunuchs?
Wu Ran knew all about his brother's wishful thinking. He didn't know if the rumor had reached Liu Xin's ears, but it had hurt Wu Ran first. Just imagine, who would dare to marry a woman with the destiny of being a queen?
She goes home?
After chatting with Fei Shuang, Wu Ran tossed and turned and stayed up all night. In the morning, when she was too lazy to dress up, she saw Fei Shuang running in happily again, holding a bright yellow grasshopper in his hand.
, showed off to Wu Ran: "Sister, what do you think this is?"
Wu Ran said listlessly: "Isn't it just a grasshopper? However, it was cleverly made up, just like the real thing."
Fei Shuang blinked and said, "Let me tell you, that person made it up himself, and Prefect Han sent it here this morning."
Wu Ran glanced at Fei Shuang suspiciously and said, "Really or not? Yesterday you had a quarrel with his goddaughter about the grasshopper, and he would personally knit a grasshopper and give it to you? I heard
He is said to be a person who does great things, how can he have such a leisurely mind?"
Fei Shuang raised the corner of his mouth and snorted: "Don't believe it? Just ask him."
Although she is young, she is very thoughtful. When Han Song sent this Grasshopper just now, she asked Han Song that she wanted to thank Liu Xin in person and ease the relationship with Liu Xin's goddaughter. After all, her
Her elder brother is still working under Liu Xin, and her Fei family is also seeking a living on Liu Xin's territory. Offending Liu Xin's goddaughter is not a good thing after all. However, Han Song made it clear that Liu Xin left Jiangxia by boat early in the morning.
So, Fei Shuang boasted, but he dared to ask Wu Ran to ask Liu Xin face to face. Anyway, Fei Shuang was sure that Wu Ran would not be able to see Liu Xin.
After hearing Fei Shuang's words, Wu Ran suddenly felt something in her heart and ordered repeatedly: "Hurry, prepare a car and take me to the post house."
The Wu family and the Fei family have now formed an alliance, and both will prosper and suffer. Although Wu Ran only lives in the Fei family as a guest and rarely goes out, the effectiveness of his words is the same as that of Fei Shuang. The maid does not need
He asked Fei Shuang for instructions again, agreed and hurried out.
Fei Shuang chuckled and said, "Sister, if you don't believe my sister, do you really want to ask him?"
Wu Ran straightened his face and said, "I knew you were lying. I just used a little trick and your fox's tail was exposed."
Feeling confident, Fei Shuang smiled even happier and said, "Where did I lie? If you don't believe me, I'll go with you and ask you questions face to face."
Wu Ran rolled her eyes and said, "Who wants you to accompany me? You little girl is smarter than a ghost. You will definitely find a way to cover up this lie when you get there, but I won't be fooled by you."
She is not a little girl like Fei Shuang or Lu Qiling. No matter how lifelike the straw grasshopper is, how can it arouse her interest. She wants to meet Liu Xin and has her own little thoughts, but she doesn't want Fei Shuang to know.
Naturally, we can't let this little guy follow us.
Fei Shuang watched Wu Ran hurried out of the house and snickered secretly. Sure enough, when Wu Ran arrived at the post house, she was told that Liu Xin and his party had left this morning. After Wu Ran spent some small money to find out Liu Xin's whereabouts,
When we arrived at the pier all the way, we could only look at the river and sigh.
Wu Ran actually came here because she wanted to ask Liu Xin face to face. Liu Xin has been promoted from Jingzhou Mu to General Manager of the Four Prefectures. Such a status and identity is not something she, a private woman, can meet casually. This opportunity
It was really rare, but I missed it right in front of me. Wu Ran stamped her feet in annoyance, why couldn't she be cruel and come to the post house last night?
