Chapter 1159 Things that Can't Be Let Go
But Li Fu slowly shook his head and said, "It may not be without a reason, but there should be a reason for it. Besides, although the Zuihonglou was demolished by his wife and Princess Liujun, the master behind it I still don’t know who it is, just based on this alone, it can be seen that the place is not a simple brothel… That’s right!”
Li Fu's eyes lit up, and he said hurriedly: "I had mentioned it in the gossip with the minister that day, saying that the master who followed the yamen of the Shuntian government carried four strange big boxes and left first, and said that the master saw She and Princess Liujun looked nervous, as if they were afraid they would rob them. My wife joked that day, jokingly saying that the big wooden box might contain a golden ingot, and the master was afraid that they wanted to share a piece of the pie, could it be that —"
The prince looked solemn, slapped his palm lightly on the table, and said, "It seems that there is really a problem! Since there are traces to follow, don't be afraid! You can go to office with peace of mind, and this matter will be carefully investigated. ."
Li Fu also knew that he was leaving the capital soon, and he was not good at this kind of investigation, so he nodded and said no more.
What Li Fu didn't know was that after he left the capital, the crown prince checked and found out that the master had already resigned and left Beijing! They sent someone to inquire about the master's ancestral hometown, but learned that their family had moved out of their hometown three months ago, and their whereabouts were unknown.
And the governor of Shuntian was also transferred to Jiangxi prefect three months ago. Who would have guessed that he got drunk and fell into the water and died on the way to take office!
As for the four big boxes mentioned by Li Fu, it seemed that they had never existed, and disappeared...
In the blink of an eye, on the day of leaving the capital, Liu Junwang and his wife, Lian Ze, Xu Yiyun, Lian Che, and Li Fu's colleague, the old friend, saw them off.
Princess Liujun took Lian Fangzhou's hand, and she almost rolled down with tears in her eyes. After a while, she said, "Sister, you have to come back early, we still have a few pieces of land that have not yet been developed! I can Waiting for you! Also, take good care of my son-in-law!"
Even Fangzhou felt warm in his heart, and patted her hand gently: "Don't worry, I will be back soon!" The prince was still waiting for the medicine.
However, things are unpredictable. Obviously, a perfect plan has been made. Obviously, everything seems to be going according to the plan, but all kinds of changes will always occur, which will mix everything upside down and completely mess up the rules...
This is something that no one expected today.
Princess Liujun pulled Xuer aside again, screened the crowd, squatted down and put both hands on his shoulders, and was talking to him very carefully.
Xu'er's expression was a little focused and a little ignorant, but no matter what Princess Liujun said, he nodded seriously to show that he understood and remembered, and he was so happy that Princess Liujun touched his head and kept smiling." Good son-in-law! Good son-in-law!"
Lian Ze held Xu Yiyun and smiled softly to Lian Fangzhou: "Sister, Yun'er is pregnant, it's almost two months!"
Xu Yiyun was a mother for the first time. He was a little embarrassed when he heard what Lian Ze said. He looked at Lian Fangzhou with a smile and lowered his eyes.
Lian Fangzhou was surprised, but he was surprised and liked with a smile: "Really! This is great!"
He smiled and said, "Congratulations!" Busy and blaming Lian Ze, "Since my sister-in-law is pregnant, what are you two doing out of the city? Be careful in the first three months, don't worry, don't go out, the most Stay at home every day, even if you walk in the yard in the morning and evening, don’t get tired, and wait until the baby is seated after three months! How can you be reassured when you go out of the city like this!”
Saying so, he urged them to go back to the city.
Lian Ze said with a smile: "Be careful on the way back, sister, don't worry! Sister and brother-in-law are leaving today, how could we not come to see each other!"
Xu Yiyun also smiled and said yes.
Lian Fangzhou smiled and said, "It's enough for you to have this heart, and now it's delivered, let your sister-in-law get in the car! What if there are more people walking around and bumping into it?"
Lian Ze thought about it too, so he asked Mama Lu to bring Xu Yiyun to the car first. Xu Yiyun looked at the lively situation of this man's neighing horse, and no longer refused, he said goodbye to Lian Fangzhou, and turned to get into the car.
When it was time to set off, everyone said goodbye, Lian Fangzhou carried Xu'er into the carriage, Li Fu got on his horse, the car was roaring, the horses hooves stomped, and slowly disappeared, disappearing in the eyes of everyone.
Seeing them go away, the people couldn't help but sigh and say goodbye to each other. They also went back to the city in groups of three or five.
The local tyrant in Nanhai County has deep roots in Shi Li, and Li Fu has overcome countless enemies, can he withstand it? No one has a definite answer in mind!
Li Fu, Lian Fangzhou and the others arrived at the Tongzhou Wharf and boarded the big ship that was already anchored here. Li Fu's mount and Lian Fangzhou's carriage also got on board.
Everything had been tidied up yesterday, and this morning, they just waited for them to get on the boat before they could lift anchor.
About half an hour later, Lian Fangzhou, Li Fu and others settled down. Following Li Fu's order, the boatman's horn sounded loudly, and the big three and four small boats slammed across the water and set sail steadily.
Lian Fangzhou and Li Fu stood on the second-floor bow deck, looking down at the big ship breaking through the waves, and looking up at the vast sky.
Jiang Feng was blowing, and there was no reason to make people feel a little more heroic.
"You said, will everything go well for us over there?" Lian Fangzhou glanced at Xu'er, who was playing with the nurses and maids on the deck, and asked Li Fuxiao.
Li Fu smiled and said, "It may not go well, but we will definitely return safely."
Lian Fangzhou smiled, Li Fu clenched her hand, and said softly, "I will keep your mother and child safe, don't worry! I am not that civil servant who is powerless."
Lian Fangzhou smiled "hehe" and said, "I'm not a woman who keeps a house and teaches her children."
The two smiled at each other.
Follow the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal all the way south to Zhenjiang, and then change the route in Zhenjiang, still take the waterway, go through Jinling, Wuhu, Tongling, Hukou, Poyang, then change to the land road in Poyang, and go along the official road in the southeast direction, about seven or eight You can reach Nanhai City, the highest administrative level city in Nanhai County, within days.
It's just that three days after leaving Beijing, Li Fu and Lian Fangzhou quietly left the main force. The two hired a clipper to rush to Nanhai County and instructed Xiao Mu and Bitao to stay in the main force as two of them. Go as slowly as possible.
Nanhai County will not know that the imperial court has sent a senior to come, and they may not know how to set up a battle and wait for it. Li Fu and Lian Fangzhou discussed it. Instead of smearing the two eyes and causing passiveness, it is better to explore first.
Although Lian Fangzhou sent a lot of shopkeepers there, these people could only inquire about the market, and might not be able to find out the important information of the four major families. The two of them went there in person, which was naturally different from others.
Li Fu turned into A Jian again, and Lian Fangzhou simply used the name Zuo Mei from his previous life. Of course, unless necessary, she only needs to wear the title of "Mrs. Jane".
But in the 12th or 3rd day, Lian Fangzhou and Li Fu stepped into the boundaries of Nanhai County.
