Marry a powerful minister and remain a widow?I’m done with the book-wearing female role!

"you are?"

Qi Lin looked at Jiang Huaiqing with a worried look on his face.

The bearded man's clothes are in tatters and his body is dirty. He is far different from the sleek male favorite in the backyard, so what kind of arrogant words are coming out of his mouth?

Qi Lin was not angry that he was not well-raised.

His life was saved several times by his godfather and godmother. No one can doubt his determination to be a filial son!

"You have been raised at a young age and will take more than ten years to raise. At my age, I came out of the city lord's mansion and became a biological child. It won't take long for my godfather and godmother to have grandchildren and take care of them for the rest of their lives. Isn't that better than the younger ones? "

Qi Lin spoke plausibly and looked at Jiang Yuzhu carefully after he finished speaking. He said these words from the bottom of his heart.

A person must be conscientious. After escaping from death, Qi Lin only thought about repayment.

Jiang Yuzhu opened a corner of the car window and took a look. She was pulled back from her thoughts, pointed at Jiang Huaiqing and introduced: "Da Linzi, he is your second uncle."

"Do I still have an uncle?"

Qi Lin didn't expect his godmother to have so many relatives. He was stunned for a moment and said with an apologetic smile to Jiang Huaiqing, "I'm sorry, junior."

"Your eldest uncle and your second uncle are all your uncles, we are our own people."

The fate between people is very wonderful. Qi Lin insisted on admitting their marriage, so Jiang Yuzhu and Xie Zhao agreed.

Qi Lin didn't expect at this moment that his godfather and godmother were of high status, and that the world's wealth would suddenly fall over his head.

After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, there was constant noise in the city lord's palace.

Seeing this, the coachman raised his horse whip and flicked it, and the carriage quickly left the corner gate of the city lord's mansion.

Jiang Yuzhu slapped the car window and said eagerly: "We haven't arrived yet, why are we leaving?"

The coachman replied respectfully: "Madam, the master has given instructions. If he doesn't come out within a quarter of an hour, it means something has happened. Please tell me to take you to a safe place first."

Qi Lin thought of something, his face was startled, and then he said: "Godmother, is that scholar who has been on hunger strike for three days a member of our family?"

"Probably, what's wrong?"

Without Xie Zhao, Jiang Yuzhu was worried.

Hearing Qi Lin's question, she turned around and asked, "Is it possible that something went wrong in the back house?"

"There's a big mess!"

In the back house, Qi Lin had a familiar guard, and he got the news.

I heard that the city lord's sister had always admired the scholar's talent and knowledge. Even though he was rejected many times, he still ordered his servants to take good care of him.

As long as the scholar nods, he is even willing to disband the backyard for him.

"The scholar went on a hunger strike and was very weak. Manager Sha was worried about being implicated, so he hurriedly asked a doctor to see him."

On the Qianqiu Festival, the doctor came to the house for diagnosis and treatment, and he did not hide it from the eyes and ears of the city lord's sister.

"I heard that my sweetheart was having a bad temper, and the city lord's sister came to visit him. Who would have expected..."

Qilin paused, he didn't see it, but he heard that the scholar didn't know where the strength came from, and when the city lord's sister was defenseless, he stabbed the city lord's sister with a dagger, trying to kill them both.

"Later, the commotion broke out, and Manager Sha ordered someone to ask a doctor from the city lord's palace to see him."

Taking advantage of the chaos, Qi Lin was replaced in a daze before he had time to inquire about the specific situation.

"Godmother, can't we wait for godfather?"

The city lord's palace is like a dragon's den, and his godfather is pretending to be a doctor. If he is found out to be guilty, Qi Lin will feel uneasy for the rest of his life. He suggested, "Why don't you go back and wait?"

Before Jiang Yuzhu could respond, almost at the same time, thousands of people came from the front and set up checkpoints on the road to search.

The leader of the group, Manzi, had a fierce look on his face and a search warrant in his hand, and would not let go of any passing citizen.

The passing carriage was also turned upside down.

Seeing this, Jiang Huaiqing felt very guilty and stuffed the parcel into the storage space of the car bench.

Even if the person on the wanted notice is not them, it is still a felony if they are found to have taken the treasure of the City Lord's Mansion.

"Don't wait for him."

Although she felt uneasy, Jiang Yuzhu still managed to reply.

Xie Zhao has always been determined. Now that she has made arrangements, all she can do is protect herself and not become a burden to him.

This trip to the City Lord's Mansion yielded a huge harvest, at least I got the second brother out.

"Little sister, we darlings..."

After Manzi went to search the carriage in front and threw out all the teapots and teacups, Jiang Huaiqing had veins popping up on his forehead and seemed uneasy.

"Keep it."

Facing the search, Jiang Yuzhu remained calm. She was very experienced in how to get through.

Jiang Yuzhu swept the hemp rope on the ground and said to Qi Lin, "Da Linzi, tie me up first."

"Godmother, how could my son do such a rebellious thing?"

Qi Lin thought about it. He was the one kidnapped by the city lord's sister. He took the initiative to reveal that he had escaped. At worst, he would be caught back in the backyard.

At this time, it is impossible for a son to betray his godmother!

"What do you think?"

Jiang Yuzhu curled her lips and whispered a few words to Qi Lin and her second brother Jiang Huaiqing.

The two understood immediately and were prepared.

When the carriage arrived at the checkpoint, Manzi shouted loudly: "Stop, get out and check!"

Qi Lin jumped down first, and his heart tightened when he saw the portrait on the wanted poster.

What are you afraid of? His godfather is wanted!

The portrait was [-]% similar to the person, but the pockmark on his face was too conspicuous.

"Brother, we don't have the person you're looking for in the carriage. Please make it easier."

Qi Lin spoke in barbarian language and gave the leader a piece of silver.

The other party held it in his hand and squeezed it, his expression softened a lot, but he still insisted: "We can't do anything about the city lord's orders."

"Don't worry, we will definitely cooperate with the inspection, but..."

Qi Lin said, showing a flattering smile, and gave Manzi another piece of silver.

The leader hesitated a little, called to his men, and decided to go to the carriage to inspect it himself.

The car door was opened, and Manzi immediately locked eyes with the tied Jiang Yuzhu.

"Woooo!"

With a handkerchief stuffed in her mouth, Jiang Yuzhu regarded Manzi as a life-saving straw and kept struggling and calling for help.

Manzi's eyelids twitched, pretending not to notice, and turned around with an indifferent expression.

Since he has received benefits, he will not meddle in others' affairs!

The one being kidnapped was a Daqi woman, and he didn't even care.

The carriage quickly passed the checkpoint. Jiang Huaiqing and Qi Lin looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief in tacit understanding.

According to Xie Zhao's arrangement, the coachman did not return to Qi Ju's husband's house, but took the people to a village outside the city. Qi Ju had been waiting for a long time with the package, Daniel and Lotus.

"Sister, why are you here?"

Now, Qi Lin couldn't understand it either.

Qi Ju was wrapped in a goose down jacket, and the tip of her nose was already red. She held a pair of children with her left and right hands, her eyes were red: "My godfather sent someone to send a message. I am afraid that the barbarians will come to take revenge. Let me wait here with the baby and follow you." After meeting, we will go back to the border town together."

Wutu's family is a barbarian and distant relatives of the city lord's house steward. The whole family has defected there in order to escape the crime.

Wu Tu was worried that the people in the clan would be disadvantageous to Qi Ju and his children, so after careful consideration, he decided to send Qi Ju to Daqi to wait for delivery.

When everything calms down, there will always be a chance for the couple to meet.
