Gongsun Miaoran saw that Miss Ah Qi was constantly searching in the house, as if she was trying to find something. He knew that she was coming for the account book. He had already anticipated this and wanted to use Ah Qi to deliver the fake account book to King Huai'an, so he deliberately put the account book in a bundle in the closet.
He didn't hide it on his chest because he was afraid that the other party would not be satisfied after taking the account book and would stab him before leaving. Then the situation he had anticipated would be ruined, which would not be a good thing.
Ah Qi was still searching until she came to the closet, opened the door, and saw the bundle inside. Ah Qi tore it open in two or three moves without any pause.
Although Gongsun Miaoran could not see clearly because he was lying on the bed and there was a gauze curtain covering his eyes, he knew that the other party had found the fake account book as he had imagined.
He knew that Ah Qi was illiterate. Even though he knew that the other party could not read, he still wrote the names of the Chamber of Commerce members inside to make it look real. Although it was only one-third true, it was still easy to deceive Ah Qi.
Sure enough, as he thought, after Ah Qi glanced at it twice, he put the fake account book away. Gongsun Miaoran saw the other party walking towards him, frowned slightly, then relaxed his brows, leaving only a slit, and glanced at the situation outside the gauze curtain with his peripheral vision.
The footsteps stopped in front of his bed, paused for a moment, then moved away and climbed out of the window.
Even though he knew the other party had left, Gongsun Miaoran did not change his breathing rhythm or his movements, fearing that the other party would come back to kill him. Now that things have come to this, he cannot give up all his efforts. www.jiangnanxs.com Jiangnan Literature Network
The other party had not returned until the next day. Gongsun Miaoran sat up, walked to the window, opened it and looked at the scene outside. Although it was still early morning, the sky was white in the distance and the golden crow had just appeared halfway, but there were already pedestrians in the street in groups of three or two.
Gongsun Miaoran packed his bag, put on a hat to cover his face, and walked quickly towards the city gate. When he was still a long way away from the city gate, he saw the yamen runners checking people at the gate with portraits in their hands.
Seeing this, Gongsun Miaoran cursed in his heart and looked around for a way. He ran at the entrance of the alley, wanting to find someone from the escort agency to take him out. Before he reached the escort agency, he saw the Lin family's carriage.
Lin family, Yizhou Lin family. In Yizhou city, the people who were checking might not dare to stop the Lin family's carriage. Seeing the three carriages of the Lin family, and a carriage loaded with supplies behind them, Gongsun Miaoran randomly chose the middle carriage and hid in the box inside the carriage. Fortunately, the box was big enough and there was no cargo inside, so it was empty, otherwise he could not hide in it.
"Put all your things in here," a clear voice sounded outside the carriage.
Gongsun Miaoran sensed that someone was getting on and off, and it took a while for the voice to stop. Then, someone got on the carriage, walked closer with the sound of footsteps, and stood in front of him.
This made Gongsun Miaoran's heart beat fast. Before he could think about it, he saw a large amount of light pouring in. When he raised his eyes, he met a pretty face. When the other person saw him, he took two steps back in shock. After looking left and right, he immediately went to close the door.
Then he turned around and asked Gongsun Miaoran, "You are a wanted man by the governor. Do you want to borrow my Lin family's carriage to leave the city?"
Gongsun Miaoran was surprised. He lifted the white cloth covering his face, revealing his own face. His heart was full of admiration for this man. This man was so smart.
Instead, after seeing Gongsun Miaoran's appearance, the other party asked, "Are you Gongsun Miaoran?" Without waiting for Gongsun Miaoran's reply, he smiled and said, "I seem to be involved in some trouble. Will I be hunted down?"
Although he was asking about his safety, he didn't show any fear at all. He squatted down and said, "You have to owe me a favor."
"..." Gongsun Miaoran looked at him again. It was the first time he met such a person. "Yeah."
"Okay," the other party smiled and said, "Let me introduce myself. My name is Lin Heng."
…
After Ah Qi got the fake account book, he took the evidence back without stopping and said to Prince Huai'an, "I got the thing."
"Did you get it?" Prince Huai'an was surprised, then took the account book from her and casually flipped through two pages, but did not notice anything wrong.
Apart from his father, even he had never seen the account book before, so he had no idea what it looked like. This was a bit difficult, as he had no idea whether the account book he got was real or fake.
Prince Huai'an thought for a moment. Gongsun Miaoran wanted to forge a fake one, but time was tight and the other party might not be able to do it. Moreover, the ink on the account book had already dried up. It was not written recently and there were no stains. He also saw the names of some merchants on it, and his father had met these people before.
Therefore, the suspicion that the account book was false had been dispelled by 50%. The Prince of Huai'an accepted the account book. He did not want to take back the order to hunt down Gongsun Miaoran, but he knew that his father had specifically instructed him to do it, so he sent a pigeon to send a letter to the Governor of Yizhou.
At this time, Gongsun Miaoran hid in Lin Heng's carriage and successfully left Yizhou City. Even after leaving Yizhou City, the matter had not been resolved. He still had to pass through two counties and head north before he could be completely safe.
When passing the last county, even the Lin family's carriage was stopped. The other party didn't care about the Lin family at all and seemed to want to keep them.
Lin Heng talked to them from the window. Seeing that the other party had no intention of giving in, his heart sank for a moment. He didn't want to let them off completely.
Seeing that the other party wanted to forcibly investigate his carriage, Lin Heng's face became completely gloomy. The guards of the Lin family also stood beside Lin Heng's carriage, holding sabers and looking at the yamen runners in front of them defensively.
Just when the two sides were about to clash, a man rode up in a hurry, bowed to Lin Heng, and said, "I'm sorry to have frightened you, Master Lin. I had no choice but to do this. A thief suddenly committed a crime in Yizhou, and he has not been arrested yet. I am investigating this strictly. My men have clashed with you, Master. I apologize here."
Lin Heng's expression remained unchanged, but seeing the other party saying this, he could only suppress his anger and frowned, saying, "Forget it, I won't bother with you guys about this matter, why don't you let him go."
The man waved his hand, and the bailiff put away his sword and stepped back a few steps.
The carriage moved slowly, and the others also protected the carriage. Lin Heng looked at the scene outside through the gap created by the shaking. As he watched the carriage move out of the city gate little by little, his tense body relaxed a little.
He didn't expect that this county was so dangerous that even his Lin family couldn't be frightened. It can be seen that what Gongsun Miaoran did involved many people.
This made him think of someone, King Huai'an.
If this matter is really related to Prince Huai'an, then the threat to his Lin family will disappear because of this matter. This is a deal that is better than losing money.
An hour after they left, another pigeon landed in the hands of the county magistrate. Seeing the news brought by the pigeon, the county magistrate stood up in shock and said, "Seal the city gates and conduct a thorough investigation."
It turned out that after Prince Huai'an got the account book and returned to Huai'an, he handed the account book to the King of Huai'an and said, "Dad, Miss Qi brought the account book back."
Prince Huai'an took it and after flipping through two or three pages, the joy on his face froze, his eyebrows raised, and he glared at me. How could this be his account book? It was clearly fake.
After closing the door, the King of Huai'an said, "Quickly send a letter by carrier pigeon to inform each county to seal the city gates and not let any suspicious person leave."
The smile on Prince Huai'an's face faded, he lowered his eyes to look at the closed account book, then looked at his father's face, his expression also became solemn, "I'll go right away."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Thinking about how he had brought back a fake account book and had been fooled by Gongsun Miaoran, Prince Huai'an felt so angry that he wanted to whip the other party.
…
After Li Lezhi figured out where Gongsun Miaoran was, he informed Minister Zhou of the news. Minister Zhou remembered what Li Lezhi had said, so he told the prince about it as well.
This also led to Zhao Xuan being surprised for a moment when he learned that Gongsun Miaoran would be with the Lin family. Later, when he learned that this was calculated by Taoist Li, he no longer had any doubts about it. Since it was calculated by Taoist Li, it must be true.
He then arranged for people to go to Yizhou and asked them to keep an eye out for the Lin family along the way. At this time, the Minister of Personnel and Marquis Qu'an also secretly planned and arranged for people to go to Yizhou, intending to take Gongsun Miaoran's life before he returned.
It's not that the two men hadn't thought about taking Li Le's life, but the other party was in the Ministry of Justice and lived in Xuanping Lane. Apart from these two places, they had never seen him go anywhere else, so they had to give up.
Even if the two of them want to give up, others will not miss such a good opportunity. This is the only chance to get rid of Li Le without anyone suspecting them.
That night, two people hid in Xuanping Lane, found where Li Lezhi lived, lit torches, and threw them into Li Lezhi's house one by one.
They were ready to set a fire to completely burn down Li's house and take Li Lezhi's life. But not long after they threw the torches, they saw from the top of the wall that the flammable wood was ignited. When it was about to burn completely, suddenly, there was a loud bang, a thunder exploded, and lightning illuminated half the sky. The bright light scared the two men so much that they climbed down from the top of the wall and looked at each other in the corner, wondering why there was a sudden thunder in the sky. Was it because of them that made God angry?
The two men didn't believe it from the bottom of their hearts. They were just here to set a fire. It was not like they had not done worse things than this before, and they had never seen thunder from God. It was obvious that God would not be angry with them for this.
This is all a coincidence, the thunder just now was a coincidence.
Just as they thought of this, a bean-sized jade bead instantly hit the two people's faces. They raised their heads, looked at the sky, and then looked at each other. There was surprise in their eyes, as if they had never expected such a thing to happen.
They really had never thought about it, and they couldn't believe it. How could such a coincidence happen that they set a fire and it rained?
They didn't believe that they couldn't start the fire.
Glancing at the sky, it wasn't about to rain heavily yet, so the two men decided to break into Li's mansion and set fire to it. They would not leave until the fire was lit.
The two men climbed over the wall and into the yard. The torches they had just lit had gone out, leaving only sporadic flames. Seeing this, the two men walked over and picked up the torches. Each of them took two torches. Just as they were about to light fires everywhere in Li's mansion, the sky exploded like thunder, resounding through the sky.
The two men's hearts trembled and they began to hesitate. This matter seemed a little different from the past. It was just arson. God kept stopping them and warning them to stand in the direction of the Taoist.
