Child Bride’s Peaches and Plums Are All Over the World

Chapter 77: Suffer

Li An was sitting on the mud with his hands and feet stretched out and gasping for breath. He consciously tried his life and suffered from hunger. He thought that the pain of walking was really not hard, but at this time he took back his naive thoughts, which was more than slashing twice on the body Sad.

After slashing twice, there is still someone to serve him, so he can take a rest in the carriage and don’t have to work again.

But walking is different. Every day before dawn, they are woken up from their sleep and go on the road. They can stop and rest for a while until noon, and then continue to walk until the sun is about to set before stopping to camp and prepare to sleep. .

Even breakfast is solved while walking, only lunch and dinner can be stopped for meals.

If there is no one nearby, they can still eat a hot one, and if there is anyone, they can hold the hard and dry buns to eat, because Li Baolu said, “It is impossible for a cornered smuggler to have the ability and mind to play pheasant and hares. For stewed food, let’s eat dry food honestly.”

Ang Lee would look at the vendor who was cooking with a fire not far away.

Li Baolu explained: “It is certainly not the first time they have done such a thing, so they have accumulated capital and can enjoy it.”

Peng Yu asked unhappily, “Then why do we have to pretend to be the first smugglers?”

Li Baolu glanced at him and said, “Because I don’t know the price of smuggled raw silk and satin, and I don’t have a seller, or even a long-term partner, unless you can promise not to say a word to strangers on the road, otherwise We can only be novice.”

Peng Yu pursed his lips.

Li Baolu stuffed the dry biscuits in his mouth, got up and said, “Let’s go, just two more days to get to Ningbo Mansion.”

“Shouldn’t raw silk and satin be more valuable to be shipped north, why should it be shipped from Ningbo?” Although Li An didn’t know much about business, he also knew that there were not many of these things in Ningbo.

“Because there is sea trade there, the demand is far greater than the supply, so the prices of raw silk and satin are not low, and we are eager to use the money to buy a car to continue going north.”

Tao Wu immediately said: “I have money here.”

Gu Jingyun finally raised his head and glanced at him, and said lightly: “Third uncle, don’t forget your identity, we are now heavily indebted dealers.”

“I’ve already gotten rid of them, so it shouldn’t matter if I buy a donkey cart.” Tao Wu, who was five or three rough, couldn’t take it anymore. It was really tiring to walk. It was more tiring than a day’s training.

“Be careful,” Li An comforted them instead: “I think Jing Yun and Miss Li have a good plan, so unless we are caught and questioned by the government, there will be no problem with our origins.”

When he said this, he laughed at himself, “And this is impossible. They dare not use the power of the government, so even if we are caught by the government and recorded on the record, they probably won’t find out.”

“Then why don’t you go to the government for help? How many people will you have to protect you once your identity is revealed?” Li Baolu wanted to ask this question a long time ago, so she just found a government government or a garrison and asked them to **** him to Beijing.

Li An smiled bitterly, “Bright swords are easy to hide, but dark arrows are hard to guard against. There are many protectors for the government and the garrison, but it is very difficult to block the assassination with their abilities. Besides, this time I went out of Beijing on an order, but in the end I failed. Such an embarrassed help for the local garrison to return to Beijing…” Li An shook his head, although he didn’t finish the sentence, but the meaning was obvious, his ability would be questioned by the court and the emperor.

The family of the prince is already difficult. If he doesn’t live up to his expectations, he is afraid that he will really be dismembered.

Gu Jingyun slightly straightened his back and asked, “Is the emperor already interested in the fourth prince as his heir?”

Wei Yingjie coughed lightly, this young man was too direct.

Tao Wu and Peng Yu also stared at him with wide eyes, saying this in front of Taisun, they are brave enough!

Li An smiled speciously and said: “How can we speculate on the emperor’s mind? After two years, the emperor’s grandfather will be in his sixtieth year, and the fourth emperor’s uncle will also pass. The father is weak and the son is strong, no one knows that the emperor will how to think.”

Otherwise, he would really have to be the fourth prince, who abolished the prince and established the fourth prince all these years ago.

Gu Jingyun touched his chin and said, “In this way, it is not necessary to show weakness appropriately.”

Li An waited for him to continue talking, but Gu Jingyun only said this, turned his head to Li Baolu and said, “Let’s go, we must hurry to Ningbo.”

In the evening, the group continued to sleep hard. Li An saw that everyone was going to pick up firewood and prepare dinner. Only Gu Jingyun sat cross-legged on the grass and meditated, so he walked over and sat next to him and asked, “What is the best way for Jingyun to deal with my current situation? Dilemma?”

Through this period of time, Li An also discovered that Gu Jingyun’s intelligence is beyond ordinary people.

“According to what you said, the emperor does not completely trust the fourth prince. If so, why not widen the gap between them?” Gu Jingyun said leisurely, “If the emperor knew that he was not dead, the fourth prince would be anxious to kill him. Brother kills nephew, what will he think?”

Gu Jingyun said meaningfully: “The emperor is old…”

“But…”

“Are you worried that the courtiers will question your ability?” Gu Jingyun said with a smile, “I asked you to show weakness to the emperor, but not to the courtiers.”

Lian asked humbly, “Then how to show weakness to the emperor and not announce it in the court?”

“Do you know which letters sent to the Prince’s Mansion will be withheld by the emperor?”

The emperor and the prince were in a state of half torn face, so the prince must have arranged someone by the emperor’s side, but the emperor must also control some of the prince’s forces.

In addition to contacting foreign ministers through Peng Dan, the prince naturally has his own secret passages, and some secret passages are no longer secrets. The emperor can transcribe and intercept their letters. Among them, there are two secret passages. They have confirmed that the emperor knows, but the emperor does not. know they already know.

Although it is a bit confusing, Gu Jingyun expresses his meaning very clearly. He knows it through the emperor, but he does not know that you already know the channel he knows to send a secret letter to the prince, “Asking for help from His Royal Highness, it is said that you have been hacked all the way. Yiren was surrounded and killed, and he was seriously injured.

The corner of Gu Jingyun’s mouth raised slightly: “It’s a bit pitiful and hesitant. You just reached the crown, and in the eyes of the emperor, you are still a child. It is normal to be weak in the face of life and death.”

Ang Lee was thoughtful.

“The fourth prince is his son, and you are also his grandson! As long as we pry open a crack, we can open a hole.”

Li Baolu picked up two pheasants from the woods and said with a smile, “Let’s make soup for a while.”

A few traders made a commotion not far away, and one of them took the initiative to talk to Li Baolu, “Little brother, where did you fight this pheasant?”

Li Baolu smiled naively, pointed to the woods and said, “My uncles caught it and they are still looking inside.”

“Your uncle and the others still have all the skills.” He looked at the pheasant in Li Baolu’s hand and asked, “I’m afraid you can’t eat two of them. Why don’t you make one for us to make soup? I’ll take it. Exchange things with you.”

Li Baolu generously gave him one, “You don’t need to change it, uncle can take it if he wants to eat it.”

“How embarrassing is this, it’s not easy for you to go out, I’d better exchange things with you.”

“It’s because it’s not easy to go out, so everyone should help each other. It’s just a pheasant, and it’s worth it.” Li Baolu shoved it into his hands and said with a smile: “Just take it, my uncle, and the others. won’t mind.”

The man turned his head and smiled at Li An: “Big brother is very lucky to have such a clever boy.”

Li An gave him a simple and honest smile, bowed his head and didn’t speak, Li Baolu said in Mandarin mixed with Cantonese: “My father can’t speak Mandarin, I’m afraid you can’t understand the language of my hometown, don’t mind uncle.”

“I don’t mind, I don’t mind. It was the same when we first came out to do business. Not only could we not speak, but we couldn’t even understand Mandarin. Later, I learned it after running outside for a long time. But my little brother learned very quickly, the Mandarin says. Pretty slippery.”

Li Baolu, who almost couldn’t understand Cantonese, laughed, “My father said that I was a child who learned languages quickly, and that’s why my eldest brother and I came to do business with me.”

The man looked at Li Baolu and asked in a low voice, “Little brothers, is this your first time going out?”

Li Baolu nodded honestly, “My grandmother is ill, and the harvest at home is not good, so I have to go out.”

The man sighed, “Unless we have to force it, who will come out to suffer this crime? I see you going east, where are you going?”

“We heard that there are many foreigners in Ningbo, and the people there want a lot of raw silk, so we went to Ningbo.”

The man shook his head and said, “The price of raw silk in Ningbo is expensive, but no one dares to accept raw silk brought by strangers unless you have an acquaintance.”

Li Baolu was startled.

The man continued: “If you are willing to earn a little less, you can do it when you arrive at Jinhua Mansion. Most of Ningbo’s silk and satin are imported from Jinhua, Taizhou and Shaoxing. There are many weavers in these three places, so what is needed There is also a lot of raw silk.”

Li Baolu asked, “Uncle, are you also selling raw silk?”

“80% of the traders on this road are raw silk traders, and so am I.”

Li Baolu smiled embarrassedly and asked, “Where are you going to be sent?”

“I went to Ningbo a few times, and I already have regular customers there, but the raw silk I sell is limited, otherwise I will help you.”

Li Baolu asked, “Then there is no need for someone to lead the way to Jinhua?”

“No, Jinhua is not as exclusive as Ningbo. You can just find a bigger store and make some money.”

Li Baolu hurriedly thanked him, and after waiting for everyone to come back, she said, “Don’t look like you’re half-dead, we’ll take action when we get to Jinhua Mansion, and then we’ll buy a donkey cart.”

Peng Yu was shocked and asked, “When will you arrive at Jinhua Mansion?”

Wei Yingjie said with shining eyes: “Probably be there at noon tomorrow!”
