No script time travel, the general helped me rise to the top
Chapter 142 Exploring the Pier
"Hehe!" Qin Haoran laughed dryly twice. Yangyang was completely unaware that he seemed to be hit by something and then lost consciousness.
Carrying her on his shoulders, Qin Haoran spat out the straw in his mouth, "What a stupid woman!"
He strode through the woods like a ghost, as fast as the wind and as quick as day.
When Yangyang woke up again, he felt dizzy and asked, "Where is this?"
Yangyang suddenly sat up from the bed and looked at Qin Haoran, who was sitting on the coffee table by the window not far away and had a high ponytail, staring outside intently.
Qin Haoran didn't look back. "Okay! Don't you want to go to Tong County to take a look? This is it, right?"
In Tong County, Yangyang hurriedly got out of bed and put on his shoes. "Why did you knock me out? Now that we are in Tong County, please help me hire a carriage. I want to go back to Jingwei now!"
Just as she finished speaking, she felt Qin Haoran step over the window like a gust of wind and stand in front of her. The two looked at each other, and Qin Haoran tilted his head with a speechless expression, "Are you mentally ill?"
Yangyang pushed Qin Haoran away in a hurry, "What do you mean? If you don't want to, I'll go by myself!"
Then she was about to go around Qin Haoran to open the door and leave, but Qin Haoran grabbed her waist with his left hand, put his right hand on her forehead, and put his mouth over Yangyang's ear, "You don't have a fever? Your brain is not broken!"
"Let me go!" Yangyang was really frightened by his crazy behavior. Qin Haoran was really too arrogant. But no matter how she twisted her body, it was useless. "Let me go!"
"Haha! I said, in a few days, when I'm in a better mood, I will send you to Mobei. Don't cause trouble for this village chief!" Qin Haoran felt a little uncomfortable with Yangyang's twisting, so he let go of Yangyang.
"This is my own decision. If you feel that I have violated someone's instructions, I will help you explain and will not make things difficult for you!" Yangyang shook off his wrinkled clothes, looking like he was determined to leave!
But Qin Haoran sat down on the table as if he had seen through everything. He pulled a stem and leaf from the vase on the table, put it in his mouth and started chewing it. "Tsk! It's so hard to chew!" Then he spit it out.
With an impatient look on his face, he tilted his head and looked at Yangyang, "I told you that you are mentally ill, but you really don't think about it! First, who can you save by returning to Jingwei? Second, have you thought about how to save them? Third, with your identity, can you reach Jingwei safely?"
Yes! It seems that I was so carried away that I didn't realize that I haven't thought of anything yet.
That's right! I am just an idiot who can't do anything. Yangyang lowered his eyes and was speechless for a moment.
Qin Haoran saw Yangyang was silent, "If you really want to do something, it's not impossible."
Just now he heard those people talking about the Left Prime Minister on the mountain. He thought that the woman in front of him was none other than the eldest daughter Xue Yangyang who was on the run from the Left Prime Minister's Mansion. If so, there really is a way!
By the way, you can also use her name to do something for yourself!
"You!" Yangyang raised his head again, "Do you have a solution?"
"There's no other way? There's no other way. I clearly heard that you wanted to go back to Jingwei, so why should I bring you down the mountain!" Qin Haoran said straightforwardly, jumped off the table quickly, and waved to Yangyang, indicating that she should follow him to the window.
Looking at the bustling crowd outside the window, "Did you see that? Did you see what's wrong?"
"Although these people seem to be wearing civilian clothes, their steps are steady and their eyes are alert. Are they all soldiers in disguise?" Yangyang looked at Qin Haoran.
"You are not that stupid!" Qin Haoran said to Yangyang, then raised his lips and continued, "This is the Xigu Wharf in Tong County. It used to be very lively, with workers carrying goods, vendors selling goods, and the girl from Wanhua Tower soliciting customers, hehe!"
Yangyang glared at Qin Haoran with disdain. Qin Haoran restrained his tone and continued, "But now, this wharf is controlled by that Jiang. All the people who move the goods are his own people. He has the final say on how many merchant ships are stopped and how much cargo is shipped every day!"
"He's simply a parasite. Wouldn't that mean all the customs duties of Great Britain have been taken away by him?" Yangyang said indignantly.
"That's not all. There were many people who used to make a living at the docks, but now they've all been exploited and have no way out. There are even quite a few who have lost their fortunes or even their families because of the seizure of their business!" Qin Haoran said as he clenched his fists, as if he had been through it all.
Back to the topic, Qin Haoran turned around and looked at Yangyang, "Do you know why your father, Lord Zuo Xiang, was arrested?"
It turns out that he knew all this. Yangyang really underestimated this young village chief in front of him. "You, know all this?"
"I'm not a god. I can only guess one thing. I'm asking you this!"
Qin Haoran certainly didn't ask for nothing, he had a lot of plans in mind! Yangyang seemed to be able to see this, but Yangyang believed that he was not a bad person!
"They must want to get something out of my father, or from me. As for the reason for his detention, it must be related to the sale of the royal cloth, or there are other reasons!"
Yangyang talked about it, but he couldn't explain how his imprisonment as the left prime minister was related to the dock in Tong County. "But what does this have to do with what you are investigating? You said there is a way, what is it?"
"You still don't believe me." Qin Haoran tilted his head and raised his eyebrows at Yangyang, "It's nothing. After all, we've only known each other for less than a day!"
Yangyang was silent for a while. She really felt that Qin Haoran was not an ordinary person. However, she had nothing to lose now. The worst that could happen was her life.
After hesitating for a long time, Qin Haoran spoke first, "Alright! Let me tell you! The purpose of imprisoning Zuo Xiang and the purpose of controlling this dock are actually the same, that is to seize power, legitimately seize power!"
"You dare to say anything!"
"So, let's mess up the dock first and let them bully others! Give Zuo Xiang some time to breathe, and then we can take it slowly!" Qin Haoran smiled confidently.
"Yes! They seem to have made thorough preparations, except for what my father knows. Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to directly arrest a first-rank official of the court! But what if they find out that they are not yet fully prepared?" Yangyang followed Qin Haoran's train of thought and instantly felt relieved!
"Master Qin, the magistrate of Tong County, Jiang Zhiang, is employed by the Minister of Revenue, Mr. Gao, who is in turn employed by the man in the palace. Therefore, with so much pressure coming down, no one dares to intervene in the affairs of Tong County! But if there is a mess within themselves, it will be a different story!"
"Miss Xue, is there any solution?" Qin Haoran heard that Yangyang already understood, and it was worth it for him to bring her on this trip. "Just think about it, I have plenty of people to cooperate with me!"
"I want to write a letter to Lord Jiang Zhiang!" Yangyang smiled, "Master Qin, can you help me deliver the letter?"
"Easy to say! Easy to say!"
