Chapter 150 Emperor Liang Wants Refugees to Enter the Capital
Before Lin Xiaoyue could react, Liang Jingyao had already held her waist tightly and was climbing over the eaves and walls, jumping over several rooftops.
It wasn't until she grabbed Liang Jingyao's shoulders that she felt secure. "Brother Liang, how could you fly up without saying a word? You scared me to death!"
Liang Jingyao was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Lin Xiaoyue to be so timid. He said jokingly, "Didn't I tell you to stand firm? Remember that next time!"
Lin Xiaoyue covered her face in embarrassment and quickly changed the subject, "By the way, what's the county magistrate's name?"
Liang Jingyao smiled and said, "Feng Weibin is also from Yangming Town. His uncle is a good friend of my father's and runs a pawnshop in the capital. He failed the imperial examination at the time, so it was his uncle who recommended him to my father. My father was just doing a favor for a good friend, but he didn't expect that he would help us now!"
Lin Xiaoyue felt that to be able to open a pawnshop in the capital, he must be a remarkable figure! Otherwise, with Prince Rong's status, he would not be so reckless in selling favors!
"So that's how it is! Is that the county government office up ahead?"
Liang Jingyao looked in the direction Lin Xiaoyue pointed and said with certainty: "It's here, let's go down!"
Lin Xiaoyue landed on the ground and looked around. This should be the front yard of the county government office. "Brother Liang, where should we go now?"
Liang Jingyao took Lin Xiaoyue's hand and walked back, "He should still be in the study, let's go over and take a look."
In the county government office, Feng Weibin saw a figure approaching outside. He habitually pulled out a dagger from his sleeve and asked, "Who? What are you doing here so late at night?"
Liang Jingyao knocked rhythmically on the door. This was the secret signal between him and Feng Weibin, "It's me!"
Feng Weibin breathed a sigh of relief. After hiding the dagger, he quickly went forward to open the door, "Master, you're finally here!"
Liang Jingyao heard the hidden meaning in Feng Weibin's words and asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"
Feng Weibin saw Lin Xiaoyue there and hesitated, not knowing whether he should say it or not.
Liang Jingyao held Feng Weibin's shoulders and said, "We are all family, so feel free to speak!"
Feng Weibin said confidently, "Someone from above has come and told me to release them by tomorrow at the latest and send the refugees from the ruined temple to the capital early tomorrow morning! Young Master, what should we do now?"
Liang Jingyao frowned. How could the Liang Emperor allow so many refugees to enter the capital? It seemed that the Liang Emperor still doubted that these people were refugees!
"The Cheetah Army definitely can't enter the capital. The most urgent task is to find real refugees to bring into the capital! But is there enough time?"
Lin Xiaoyue disapproved and said, "No! If anyone else goes to the capital, they will be suspected. After all, there were so many people watching today, and there will definitely be a few faces that will be remembered! Tomorrow, have Shopkeeper Wang spread the word that the emperor wants to use the capital as a refuge for refugees. Those nobles will definitely make a fuss, and when Emperor Liang can no longer bear it, he will naturally release the people!"
Liang Jingyao was still worried, "That's fine! I'd better get more refugees and bring them into the capital with the Cheetah Army. The more people there are, the easier it will be to cause panic!"
Lin Xiaoyue nodded and said, "That's fine! Send someone to the capital tonight to deliver a message to Manager Wang!"
Liang Jingyao looked at Feng Weibin and asked, "Will someone from the capital come to count the number of people tomorrow?
Feng Weibin shook his head and said, "That's not mentioned. If you want to find more refugees to sneak in, it's best to be at the ruined temple before dawn. That way, you don't have to worry about people coming from above."
Liang Jingyao couldn't help but frown. Time was very tight before dawn, but he had to give it a try no matter what!
"Then let's do it this way! Also, kill the several inmates in the prison. They'll only cause trouble if they're released. I'll have the Silver Slasher Guards impersonate them and get out!"
Feng Weibin was a little hesitant. Would this really work?
"Sir, pretending is easy, but without knowing the internal workings of these stores, I'm afraid you'll be exposed in a few days. Please be cautious!"
In fact, when Liang Jingyao knew that Emperor Liang had these shops in Yangming Town, he asked Yin Zhanwei to investigate, so there was no problem at all in pretending to be these shopkeepers!
Perhaps Feng Weibin was worried that Emperor Liang would suspect him, which was understandable! Furthermore, Feng Weibin's position was extremely important, so it was best to distance himself from him first.
"If you're worried, send those shopkeepers out of the county government tomorrow. I'll send others to assassinate them, and then pretend to be them as shopkeepers!"
Feng Weibin said gratefully, "Thank you, sir!"
Liang Jingyao nodded and quickly left the county government office with Lin Xiaoyue.
After returning to the teahouse, no one slept until they saw Liang Jingyao and Lin Xiaoyue return safely. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Too many things had happened recently!
Liang Jingyao sat down in the main hall and told the news he had just learned at the county government office, "The situation has changed! Emperor Liang has ordered the county magistrate to send the refugees in the ruined temple to the capital tomorrow morning, so we must find more refugees tonight and mix them all with the Cheetah Army! Amian, you stay here to protect Yue'er, Yunyun, and the old drunkard. Everyone else, follow me now!"
Although Gu Mian also wanted to go, he was worried about leaving three people without martial arts skills behind, so he nodded and said, "Don't worry, they will be fine with me here!"
Liang Jingyao was very happy to see Gu Mian's cooperation, but before leaving, he repeatedly warned him, "Don't sneak out like you did last time when the Cheetah Army entered the city! Stay in the teahouse and hold this place safe!"
Gu Mian patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry! It won't happen again!"
Liang Jingyao nodded and left the teahouse with a few Cheetah soldiers. He was going to find the Silver Slash Guards first, as there was an important task waiting for the Silver Slash Guards to complete tomorrow!
After Liang Jingyao left, Lin Xiaoyue stretched and said, "Aha! Let's all go to bed early!"
Gu Mian knew that Lin Xiaoyue was the most cunning and had a lot of tricks up her sleeve!
He grabbed Lin Xiaoyue and asked, "You won't run away, will you?"
Lin Xiaoyue curled her lips and said, "Am I really that untrustworthy? Besides, Brother Liang is going to look for refugees, and I don't have any Qinggong skills, so how can I catch up with him?"
Gu Mian was skeptical and said, "Then swear!"
Lin Xiaoyue glared at Gu Mian fiercely, raised her hand, and swore seriously, "God, if I, Lin Xiaoyue, secretly follow Brother Liang out, then I will be punished by not eating for three days and not leaving the house for a month! Is that okay?"
Gu Mian was still worried, so he glanced at Jiu Laoguai and asked, "Jiu Laoguai, do you believe it?"
The drunkard had a headache, thought for a moment and said, "You just sit at the door of the east wing. If she runs out, she'll definitely have to open the door or window. Then you won't be able to catch her, right?"
Gu Mian thought about himself, a famous young man in the capital. He was afraid that he couldn't control others. He felt ashamed and reluctantly agreed: "Okay! Miss Lin, this is my brother's request. Please don't embarrass me!"
Lin Xiaoyue smiled secretly, "Okay, I won't make things difficult for you!"
