After a while, the person who had been sent to buy food said, "He's dead. Don't worry, my dagger is poisoned."
The driver said, "Move the body onto the carriage first, and we'll find a suitable place to bury it. This idiot's men took the carriage and the group of maids and servants to Jizhou. If anyone from the Ren family follows the trail, they'll go to Jizhou and help divert our pursuers. We can take her to the employer to get the money."
"You are smart. You saved money and trouble."
When Ren Yaohua heard that they were going to move the corpse onto the carriage, she felt sick and terrified. No matter how strong she was, she was just a young girl who had just reached marriage age, and she was instinctively afraid of the dead.
However, the next words of the man carrying the corpse surprised Ren Yaohua a little. This surprise even made her temporarily suppress her fear of death.
The man muttered, "I don't know what the employer was thinking. She's a girl herself. Why would she kidnap a girl all the way here?"
"Why all that nonsense? She pays you, you just do the work!"
The person who kidnapped her was a girl?
Ren Yaohua had previously guessed who had captured her. She thought the most likely person would be the eunuch Lu whom she had offended at the princess's coming-of-age banquet, or Zeng Kui, the young master of the Zeng family. But how could it be a girl?
There weren't many girls she'd had a feud with. Ren Yaoyin was one, but she'd already gone to Jiangnan, and Ren Yaohua didn't think she'd be able to find a desperate person like her. Ren Yaoying was also one, but when people outside mentioned "all this way," they obviously weren't referring to Ren Yaoying, who lived under the same roof as her. As for the missing Concubine Fang, she was a woman, not a girl.
But apart from these people, she didn't remember offending any other girl who was worth others going to such great lengths to deal with her.
Someone opened the carriage curtain and threw a man's body in. The carriage was not spacious to begin with, and Ren Yaohua could even feel the dead man's hand touching her sleeve. She bit her tongue to prevent herself from screaming.
After throwing the body up, the man asked suspiciously, "Why hasn't he woken up for so long? Is he pretending to sleep?" The man seemed to want to come up and check.
Ren Yaohua's heart skipped a beat.
The driver sneered, "If you threw a dead body next to a girl, would she not make any noise if she was awake? Those people just used a bit too much force."
"That's right, she could be frightened into passing out even if she wakes up."
"Okay, it's getting late, let's hurry! I'm still in Yanzhou, and I feel uneasy. We have to get to Zhuozhou as soon as possible."
"Why are you so uneasy? After we finish this job, we will go south and never come back. Then we will marry a wife, take concubines and have children. Don't be too happy!" The man laughed as he spoke.
"I hope so!" sighed the driver.
