"Jiang Yuzhu is just a woman. What does she know besides eating, drinking and having fun? Women have long hair but short knowledge. In the past, she relied entirely on Xie Zhao."
Speaking of Jiang Yuzhu, the other short man was extremely disdainful and sneered, "Even if Jiang Yuzhu has some cleverness, it's not used in the right place. She's been jealous of Wei Jing, trying to trip her up, and making up play scripts. She knows nothing else!"
The speaker's expression relaxed slightly, then a hint of caution appeared. "Although Jiang Yuzhu is not a threat, Yan Lin, that clueless young man, is a doctor and is very sensitive to medicinal herbs. He must have known that Shenxian Powder is related to the banned drugs of Da Qi."
"So what should we do? Should we kill him and silence him?"
The skinny guy made a gesture of wiping his neck. He was most familiar with the routine of killing people to silence them.
The short man and the skinny guy looked at each other, and they could see the cruelty in each other's eyes.
Shenxiansan is the key and also the master's weapon to control the officials of Da Qi.
If it is dug out in advance, it would be equivalent to revealing one's own trump card, which is a great disadvantage.
"No, you can't kill people!"
The short man pondered for a moment and finally shook his head.
Killing someone could put an end to all the problems, but if they didn't inform the master about this matter, if they acted on their own and the master blamed them, they would all be in trouble.
"The Immortal Powder was prepared by the head of the Yan family. Yan Lin is his biological son. What will he do if he finds out that his own flesh and blood has been silenced?"
Apart from that old fox Yan Song, no one else can purify the rice husk flower and make a powerful magic powder.
Yan Song quit his job, and his side suffered huge losses.
The skinny guy glared at the shorter man and asked, "This doesn't work, and that doesn't work either. What do you think we should do?"
If he is not killed, he will be a hidden danger. If he is killed, there will be no way to explain to Yan Song. He is in a dilemma.
The short man saw the direction the group was heading away and thought of a plan. He said, "You and I can take our brothers and pretend to be a caravan doing business. We can follow them. If we can find an opportunity to travel together, that would be the best."
It is safest to keep a close eye on people.
"If Yan Lin continues to behave like an idiot, it will be easy to deal with."
Since you can't kill him, just control him.
The short man smiled wickedly and said, "Yan Lin's marriage fell through, and he ran away to the border town. Yan Song is very anxious and angry. Why don't we help Yan Song get married?"
"How can I help?"
The skinny guy came over and looked like he was listening attentively.
Unexpectedly, the short man deliberately kept it a secret and said, "I won't tell you!"
There is no time to lose, their caravan must set off, otherwise they will not be able to keep up with the speed of Jiang Yuzhu and his group.
The setting sun sinks into the west, leaving only a faint trace of light in the sky.
The convoy drove along the straight official road until it was pitch dark, and then it slowly stopped.
Xiao, the escort team's leader, rode back and stopped in front of Jiang Yuzhu's carriage. He said, "Madam, even if we continue walking for another two hours, we won't be able to reach the town. We'll have to stay on the official road tonight."
For escorts, sleeping in the open air is the norm.
Xiao Biaotou knew that Jiang Yuzhu was pregnant, and said embarrassedly, "I'm afraid you'll have to endure it for one night."
The wives of wealthy families talk a lot, but Xiao Biaotou is unwilling to deal with them if there is any way.
However, the medicinal herb merchant said that the other party was no ordinary person, but a big shot whom even the prefect could not afford to offend, and the medicinal herbs transported this time were precious and could not afford any mistakes.
For the generous reward, Xiao Biaotou and his brothers took the job reluctantly and are now waiting for Jiang Yuzhu to make trouble.
The carriage window opened, and Hongli poked his head out, saying cheerfully, "Thank you for your hard work, Captain Xiao. Before we leave, my wife bought some wine and food. Please share some with the brothers."
When going out, Jiang Yuzhu is particularly particular about food. If the weather is not warmer and the food cannot be stored when going south, she will bring more.
"Thank you, ma'am. We got the silver, so it's not hard at all."
Xiao Biaotou showed a look of surprise. He had never met such an easy-going master.
After eating delicious food with his brothers, Xiao Biaotou felt even more ashamed and realized his petty mind.
Jiang Yuzhu had no idea what Xiao Biaotou was thinking. After traveling for several hours, she felt exhausted from swaying in the carriage.
In order to make travel more comfortable, the carriage has been widened and has a separate bathroom inside, and the bed made from the benches is also more spacious.
There is a retractable tent on the roof, and Hongxiu and Hongjin go to the roof to keep watch at night.
Jiang Yuzhu had no appetite and only ate a little for dinner.
After the meal, Shen Zhilan came over to sit for a while, staring at Jiang Yuzhu's belly and said, "Sister Yuzhu, I heard that twins are born earlier, so the due date may be in August."
It is very hot in Jiangnan at the end of August.
It is best to choose a small residence in a village near the mountains and water. During the confinement period, you can secretly open the window and see the lotus flowers and ducks swimming in the lake, which does not make you feel bored.
As Shen Zhilan spoke, her mind drifted far away.
Jiang Yuzhu held her hand and asked, "Are you worried about General Mo, or..."
Shen Zhilan had to bear the pain of miscarriage alone, and no amount of persuasion from outsiders was of any use.
Jiang Yuzhu touched her belly. Ever since she became pregnant, she felt the same pain as Shen Zhilan.
Shen Zhilan came back to her senses, shook her head and smiled: “I’m worried that it’s not my husband. The child is gone, and it’s only a matter of time before he comes back.”
Currently, Shen Zhilan is in good health and has a rosy complexion.
Sometimes, she would have wild thoughts and hate herself for not being strong enough.
Every time she hated herself, it didn't last long, and Shen Zhilan would reconcile with herself.
She was not a smart person to begin with, and this ending was already much better than her previous life. Asking for more would be a luxury.
Returning to Jiangnan, she has to meet her vicious half-sister and the scumbag who hurt her in her previous life.
If those two show any signs of doing anything bad, Shen Zhilan will show no mercy and will definitely send the scumbag and the bitch to hell!
"Sister Yuzhu, my half-sister conspired with that scumbag to harm my reputation, but I saw through it and brought Xia'er to the capital."
It's funny to say, it was obviously those two who wronged her, but when they met again, Shen Zhilan was actually a little timid.
Shen Zhilan hesitated to speak. Jiang Yuzhu didn't understand anything, so she patted the back of her hand gently and said softly, "Since they are scum, you must beat them to the bottom and not give them any chance to turn around and bite you back."
It is a taboo to be soft-hearted and kind to your enemies.
Shen Zhilan listened to the advice and pursed her lips: “Then about Wei Jing…”
Jiang Yuzhu's expression froze, and after a moment of struggle, she spread her hands helplessly and said, "She's different."
Every time Wei Jing made a move, Jiang Yuzhu would find a way to fight back, and the effect was gradual.
"Whether Wei Jing will fall depends on whether the Wei family falls."
The aristocratic families are deeply rooted and complex. If Prime Minister Wei does not rebel, with his qualifications and many students, he can definitely protect his family's prosperity for a lifetime.
"Wei Jing is a bitch, and it's good for her to be a pair with Feng Qing."
Jiang Yuzhu was not in the capital, so out of sight, out of mind. Besides, she never took Wei Jing seriously. Wei Jing's trusted maid Shuxiang was her spy, so she couldn't cause any trouble.
