Chapter 345 Xu Yu, have you fooled me?
The moonlight moved away silently, and Xu Yu seemed to be completely dumb and said nothing.
Jiang Yubai is also a strange person. He keeps chattering without getting any response.
Xu Yu didn't drink a sip of the tea on the table, but Jiang Yubai filled his stomach until it was full.
As the sky gradually brightened, Jiang Yubai squinted his eyes and looked at the ten kittens that Xu Yu had already made. His eyes flickered, "My sister-in-law has been out for such a long time. Isn't it time for her to come back?"
His order was to intercept the three carriages as soon as they left the city, so that Sang Zhixia could be invited to the seat of honor and negotiate with him in a friendly tone.
But it’s already past midnight, where are the people from Sangzhixia?
Xu Yu, whose ears were numb from the constant chatter, sneered, "Didn't you say you were coming to see me? Why are you thinking about my wife?"
"It's true that I invite you to join me in this great undertaking, but my sister-in-law is also indispensable!"
Jiang Yubai said confidently, "Don't think I don't know. The granaries and grains of the Northwest are inseparable from the hard work of my sister-in-law. You are also lucky to have a good wife, otherwise how would you dig the ground?"
Not to mention digging the ground, Jiang Yubai dared to guarantee that Xu Yu couldn't even tell the difference between rice and wheat.
Xu Yu is a brave general that Jiang Yubai is willing to recruit at all costs.
But if we really talk about the current urgent task, without Sang Zhixia's unique skills in the fields, it would be impossible to do anything.
Xu Yu sat there calmly, not moving a muscle.
Jiang Yubai took a deep breath and said, "Xu Yu, have you fooled me?"
Xu Yu remained silent. Jiang Yubai suddenly stood up and made a gesture to shout, "Someone come!"
Normally, if Jiang Yubai shouted like that, someone would appear within half a moment to respond to his orders.
But as soon as he finished speaking, the only sounds left were the wind and the crackling sound of the carving knife in Xu Yu's hand sliding across the wood.
Jiang Yubai's eyes narrowed suddenly and he said, "Where are the people who followed him out? Is there no one around me who can answer back?!"
"Stop shouting. Why bother?"
Xu Yu slowly brushed away the remaining sawdust from his palms, then raised his head with a half-smile in his eyes: "The young prince has his own Yangguan Road, and I also have my own single-plank bridge."
"The twenty men you left here are all tied up and gagged, all hunkered down in the back wing."
Jiang Yubai saw Xu Yu stand up and took a step back cautiously: "Calm down."
"My shoulder is still bleeding from reminiscing about old times with you. Xu Yu, you can't take advantage of me now!"
"Taking advantage of someone's misfortune?"
Xu Yu sneered and said subtly, "Who is taking advantage of someone else's misfortune, you or me?"
"Jiang Yubai, let me tell you, even though the Xu family has fallen on hard times, they definitely haven't begged for mercy from anyone. Young prince, you can act all you want in Lingnan, but don't put on such a big show in front of me. I won't fall for it."
Jiang Yubai was speechless and almost wanted to cry on the spot.
"Who asked you to beg for mercy? I'm clearly..."
"Whatever it is, get away from me."
Xu Yu interrupted Jiang Yubai's defense and said coldly, "We will not meet again today. Take care, young prince."
"Goodbye."
After saying this, Xu Yu picked up the work he had done that night and left.
Jiang Yubai subconsciously wanted to follow, but as soon as he moved his feet, he was hit in the face by a fierce palm!
"Xu Yu, are you serious?!"
"I don't joke about things like this."
"you……"
"vomit!"
After being caught off guard by several moves, Jiang Yubai grabbed the folding fan at his waist and tried to chase after him. However, his limbs suddenly became weak without any warning, and he hit the ground with one knee and spit out a mouthful of blood.
Xu Yu took advantage of the situation and tapped Jiang Yubai's blood. Looking at Jiang Yubai, who was sitting on the ground with a look of horror on his face, he smiled and said, "Is the tea delicious? I made it especially for you."
Jiang Yubai was limp all over and just stared without saying a word.
Xu Yu's eyebrows arched in amusement, and he smiled and waved his hand: "The effect of the medicine will wear off in three days. Then you can set off on your own to return to Lingnan."
"Goodbye."
Jiang Yubai watched Xu Yu walk away, almost vomiting blood in anger: "You are cheating! If you have the guts, remove the poison and let's fight one on one!"
Xu Yu turned a deaf ear to the angry voice behind him, strode out of the inn door, jumped on his horse and whistled, and the people hiding in the dark followed him out.
Seeing Xu Yu and his men rushing out of Qingyang County without looking back, Chief Xie, who had been hiding carefully and not daring to breathe loudly, rolled and crawled towards Jiang Yubai.
"Young Master?!"
"Master, are you okay?!"
Jiang Yubai gritted his teeth with a gloomy face: "I'm not dead yet. Are you shouting so loudly because you're afraid Xu Yu can't hear you?"
Chief Xie swallowed nervously and dared not speak. With trembling hands, he helped Jiang Yubai up and sat him down, and hurriedly went to find a doctor.
Jiang Yubai swallowed the antidote pill in his mouth and clicked his tongue irritably: "Is your butt on fire or your instep on fire?"
"Xu Yu didn't mean to kill me, so why are you so anxious about spitting out a few mouthfuls of blood?"
"But you..."
"Stop talking nonsense. Are you following?"
Chief Xie suppressed his fear and nodded vigorously: "According to your instructions, our people have been in the county town beforehand. Some of them have secretly followed Master Xu and his group."
Jiang Yubai nodded with satisfaction.
Chief Xie trembled with fear: "Young Master, the people we sent out to follow those three cars haven't replied yet. It's likely that Young Master Xu would choose one of the three to chase after them. Why did you make such a fuss?"
Their men followed Sang Zhixia's carriage. As long as they kept their eyes on Sang Zhixia, would they still have to worry about not finding Xu Yu?
Jiang Yubai looked at him with an indescribable expression, and said in a complicated tone: "Did you buy your brain from the pork stall in the vegetable market and install it there?"
"Do you really think my sister-in-law is in the carriage?"
Xu Yu was eager to get rid of him, so he must send Sang Zhixia away first.
The three carriages moving out at the same time did seem quite confusing.
But if the person who planned it was Xu Yu, it would not be a simple trick of making the fake look real.
Jiang Yubai spat in frustration and said angrily, "So many people staring at each other are just for show."
"None of those three cars is hers. My sister-in-law was secretly sent away by that bastard Xu Yu a long time ago. Can't you figure this out?!"
Chief Xie's eyes were dull.
Jiang Yubai waved his hands irritably: "Keep a close eye on Xu Yu, don't let him dump you again."
As long as you follow Xu Yu closely, why would you be worried that you won’t be able to find Xu Yu’s wife?
Jiang Yubai forced himself to cheer up and hurriedly arranged everything. In the afternoon of that day, he got some news and left the house in a low-key manner before dusk and never came back.
The next morning, a cook carrying a basket walked out of the back door of the inn.
The cook had a limp and walked slowly around the dark alley towards the bustling market, and soon disappeared in the crowd of people coming and going.
In a rouge shop behind the market, Ling Chu, who had been waiting there for a long time, walked up quickly and whispered, "Boss, we can leave the city now."
Sang Zhixia, who was dressed as a cook, let out a long breath and looked in Shi's direction with mixed feelings.
There are more of these spinning eyes than lotus roots dug out from the pond!
Real covers fake, fake covers real.
It was so confusing that she almost got tricked in the bureau!
Sang Zhixia said sadly, "Is Xu Yu okay?"
"Young Master will find a way to escape, you don't have to worry."
Ling Chu pointed to the prepared compartment and said softly, "Go and change into this outfit. I will ride out of the city with you on horseback and no one will see me."
Sang Zhixia said with a smile, "If they were caught up after going around in circles like this, then that person must have a dog nose, right?"
"Don't worry, you can't catch up."
