The whole village is full of tigers, leopards and jackals, and the space widow is escaping with her

"What do you want to explain?"

After a long time, Xun Yi's voice sounded in the hall again.

The emperor smiled and said directly: "We in Beiyan have always followed the rules and will not take advantage of you. You have killed so many of us. Since you want to explain, you must show sincerity and give each family five thousand taels for comfort." That’s it. In addition, if you break into our Beiyan border to provoke us maliciously, you should pay us back 50,000 taels of silver before you can leave."

No matter how you look at it, the emperor's request is actually not too much. But the other party is a small and poor island country. The country is still in chaos and various factions are at war. How can they come up with so much money?

Xun Yi clenched his back teeth and forcibly controlled himself not to kill the dog emperor.

The island nation was clearly in a predicament, yet making such a request was clearly intended to embarrass him.

But if these things are not resolved, the emperor will not let them go, and he will not be able to do what he promised Lan Jiu. It is really a waste of time to stay here like this.

"Okay, I will ask the emperor of the island country to send someone to send money."

After saying that, he turned around and left without paying any attention to the emperor.

The emperor knew from Jiang Jiuniang that this man was not simple in origin, was very skilled, and indeed had arrogance, so he did not care about him. After making sure that he left the palace, the emperor stood up and said: "Let's go to the Imperial College for a walk." , I haven’t cared about the studies of those children for a long time.”

People are in high spirits during happy events, and the emperor walks with wind.

After Xun Yi returned, he wrote directly to the emperor of the island country, saying that Pangu Jade had been obtained, but the method was a little dirty, which angered Emperor Beiyan. The other party demanded compensation and asked the emperor to send someone to send money as soon as possible.

He didn't consult with any islanders when he wrote this letter. He just made his own decision and wrote whatever he wanted.

When the other party sees this letter, he will definitely be very happy. After all, getting Pangu Jade means getting treasure, and he will not have to care about such a small amount of money in the future, so he happily sends money to Beiyan.

During this period, the envoys of the island country were completely under house arrest. Except for Xunyi who had the ability to go out, everyone else lost their freedom to go out. They had to wait until the island country sent someone to send money before they could be taken away.

It would take several months from the time the letter was sent to the time the emperor sent someone. Xun Yi didn't have enough time at all, so after sending the letter, he claimed to be sick and didn't want to see anyone. In fact, he continued to look for the whereabouts of the treasure.

There are so many things in Beiyan Mountain, how can we do it if we don’t hurry up?

Sometimes he couldn't figure out whether the information provided there was wrong. How could a good treasure become a burial object for an ordinary person? It's almost enough to say that it was a burial object of the Beiyan royal family.

But he had already been to the imperial mausoleum in Beiyan. There were indeed many burial objects, but they were not the treasures he was looking for at all.

Jiang Jiuniang knew that he had left secretly, but there was no movement. It didn't matter where he went, as long as he was not an eyesore in the country, it would be fine.

Before the cold winter comes, Lu Xiaoyang and his party are finally coming back.

I received their message a month in advance, saying that they had arrived in Beiyan and would be arriving in the capital soon.

Logically speaking, it was almost time now and we should receive news again, but we didn't expect that there would be no news at all, which would make everyone in the Lu family worried.

"I'm familiar with the road they took back. Why don't I take someone to look for it along the way? Maybe the weather is too cold and the trip is delayed."

Lu Laoer took the initiative to step forward. During this period of time, he served as a steward at home. If anything happened in the shop or gambling house, he would go and run around. It felt quite fulfilling.

After going out for a trip, he was no longer as confused as before. He just settled down and did what he could.

Since he was born mediocre, he should cherish this mediocrity and live a good life peacefully.

Now that everyone else in the family is busy, he has nothing to do, so he should go out and pick up the children.

Mrs. Qin also said, "Yes, it's snowing heavily in many places. It's probably because the snow has blocked the roads and delayed the trip. It would be a good idea to ask Youya Tou and her father to take someone to greet them."

Jiang Jiuniang was slightly uneasy, feeling that things were not that simple.

"Forget it, it's freezing cold today. It's better not to let my second brother go far away. I'll go to the emperor and ask some Jingwei to help me. If nothing happens, it's good. If something does happen, Jingwei can also help. Save people.”

Lu Laoer has no martial arts skills. If he goes there and fails to help but ends up in trouble, it will be a big loss.

Mrs. Sun heard what Jiang Jiuniang meant and said, "Yes, I'd better not go out at this time, so that I don't have to worry about both parties."

The family was unanimous in their opinions, and Jiang Jiuniang quickly entered the palace and informed the emperor of the matter. The emperor was very generous and agreed directly.

Jiang Jiuniang couldn't bear to ask someone to help them on a mission this winter, and she gave the Jingwei a lot of good things.

They were all for self-defense and life-saving. The Jingwei were not polite and just took them away.

At this time, Beiyan was near the border area of ​​Xiteng, and Lu Xiaoyang and others were tied up hand and foot and thrown into a dilapidated woodshed.

Some people in the team were bribed and drugged into their food. After eating, they felt weak and it was like this when they woke up.

This state has been maintained for seven or eight days. The other party is not bad. They will let them solve their personal problems and then come back to continue tying them up.

They were drugged, and the food they ate every day was also drugged. Fortunately, it was not poison, just cartilage powder. After eating, they felt weak all over and were tired from walking, let alone running.

"We can't go on like this, why not... I just promise him..."

Zhang Lanxiang looked at everyone's pale faces and looked like they were about to die soon. She felt so guilty that she couldn't stop crying.

The person who kidnapped them was the person she had a crush on before. The other person's family still has a high status in Xi Teng. The family has been doing business for generations. However, after Xi Teng cooperated with Bei Yan, he also studied with Bei Yan. Business people can also produce scholars. After taking the imperial examination and becoming an official, his family tried every means to get a few minor officials to serve, and he successfully entered the court.

The man's name was Baer, ​​and he had once passionately pursued Zhang Lanxiang. Zhang Lanxiang was very excited, but after receiving Jiang Jiuniang's reply, he thought carefully for a few days and finally decided to go home and be with his parents.

So, she clearly rejected Barr, saying that it was impossible for them to have each other, and then never saw him again. Even when they were planning to return to Beiyan, they left quietly without letting Barr get the news.

But who knew that Barr had known about their plan for a long time, but did not reveal it. He followed them from a distance and waited until Beiyan reached them before taking action.

The most annoying thing is that Beiyan and Xiteng trade, and Baal's family is a merchant, so he can naturally come to Beiyan unimpeded, and there is also his family's industry here, so he can move with ease.

He even bribed the people in the team, drugged all of them, and kept them here without letting them go. He had only one purpose, to get Zhang Lanxiang to agree to marry him.
