Huai City is the city of Yu State closest to Jiang State. It is near the sea and has developed shipping, so it is also known as "Sea City".

The wharf in Huai City, the water is as blue as the sky all year round, the sky and water in the distance are the same color, and the distant sky is very vast.

Because of the unimpeded trade with the sea, the prosperity of Huaicheng's trade is no less than that of the neighboring Yuncheng. The Gu family has many industries here, and this is also the development direction that Gu Huaiyu originally planned.

At this moment, in the Gu family's house in Huaicheng, Gu Huaiyu flipped through the various news reports in his hand, his heart sank again and again, and the haze in his eyes did not decrease but increased.

Still no news.

Jiaer, where are you now?Where should I go to find you?

The worries in Gu Huaiyu's heart became more and more serious day by day, and sometimes he would even think in despair that there is no one to be found right now, no news, maybe... it is good news.

It was better than he had heard the real bad news.

After all, he is the second youngest of the Gu family, and the Gu family only has two sons, both of whom are legitimate sons.Although Qianjin Winery has also opened a large winery for itself in Yuncheng, but if he really wants to start a business, the Gu family will never give him such a winery.On the surface, he is not alone in this property, not to mention that he has been secretly buying property in the past few months.In addition to the two garment shops, he also set up a silk and satin shop and two jewelry pavilions in Dongcheng, and set up a money shop and a pawn shop in Beicheng. Not long ago, that money shop also opened branches in Huaicheng and Taocheng. , are all real money-making businesses.

Although he has a lot of manpower available right now, a few old shopkeepers who are loyal to the Gu family and will not leak their words are drawn from home to support his stall, and he still has a few people in his hand to do the money laundering for him, but the most important thing is The core matters are handled by him and Jiaer.Before that, he just went to Taocheng to deal with the conflicts with those merchants who engaged in the fur business, even if both he and Jiaer left Yuncheng temporarily, it would be fine.But now that Jiaer is missing, if there is no more news, in order to find Jiaer, his next step is to take a batch of sea goods from Huaicheng to Shuoguo Yaocheng to find someone in the name of business.

I don't know how long this trip will last. After all, Changgui Changlin is a servant, and some things are not easy to make his own opinions. There is no one in Yuncheng to guard his properties, so it is a bit troublesome.He had already expected this situation before, and he could only entrust his elder brother to help him deal with things temporarily.If there is a decision that Changgui Changlin is not easy to make, he has ordered both of them to ask the eldest brother for advice.

But after the eldest brother found out that he was secretly buying property, he didn't ask anything.

Probably, the eldest brother also knows what he thinks.

Gu Huaiyu sighed deeply in his heart, closed the booklet in his hand, and rubbed the center of his brow worriedly.

At this time, the courtyard door was pushed open with a slight creak, and a noble young man with a face like a crown jade and a velvet brocade came in. The servant who had followed him for many years turned around and closed the courtyard door for him with a low eyebrow. , and followed him to the bluestone case in Gu Huaiyu's courtyard.

Still carrying a somewhat sickly Duan Zian, he sat down quietly opposite Gu Huaiyu, and as soon as he sat down, he heard him say: "Have you heard? Prince Rui was defeated and died under the imperial capital."

!

"It's a pity." The elder son of Shuo Kingdom's brows and eyes were faintly emotionless, and there seemed to be a bit of melancholy between his lips and teeth, as light as if he was reciting.

Prince Rui left the imperial capital nine years ago, and when Duan Zian was sent to the imperial capital, Prince Rui was already gone. It stands to reason that Duan Zian had never met Prince Rui, and he didn't know what he was regretting.

Gu Huaiyu was a little dazed: "Did Prince Rui die in battle?"

There was a faint smile in Duan Zian's eyes, and he slightly raised his face to look at the sky, the sky was not sunny, but it was as blue as water: "Naturally. Under the outer city of the imperial capital, Young Marshal Fang and Prince Rui fought to determine life and death in the final battle, and in the end Prince Rui died." Under Fang Shaoshuai's sword, Fang Shaoshuai became famous in one battle."

"On that day, Prince Rui's corpse returned to the imperial capital together with Young Marshal Fang."

"Do you know how Emperor Cheng disposed of his corpse afterwards?"

Gu Huaiyu did not speak.

The man gracefully raised his hand to half cover his eyes, and his voice was as soft as a flower falling, "Prince Rui's wolfish ambition is really a traitor to his ministers, and he deserves to be punished for his crime. His body will not be buried in the imperial mausoleum."

Gu Huaiyu was silent for a moment: "That's it."

He knew this result in his previous life.

It turns out that many things that should have happened in this life still happened.

It's just that in the previous life, Jia'er had never been kidnapped, and he had never been to Huai City at this time.

Many things that shouldn't have happened have happened.

Now fate is going in an unknown direction, and the road ahead is a mess of confusion.Perhaps originally Jiaer could live another seven years, but because of his rebirth, at this moment he fell into an unknown danger.

He was really afraid that he would be in danger.

After dark, lights were lit in the inn.

Under the lamp, the handsome and well-grown young man held a book in his hand, the light reflected his side face, the pages of the book were fragrant with ink, his sleeves and robes were motionless, and he looked like a peaceful time.

But he didn't know that the person holding the book was not on the book at all.

It has been more than two months since the day he left the Gu family.

He didn't expect that a person like Chen Linqing would be very thoughtful at a certain time.First, they didn't know where they got the medicine, but it actually poisoned the two people who brought them out.Then, taking advantage of the war on the border of the imperial capital, he took him to hide in a village near the imperial capital in Yuncheng, and told the villagers that he was Chen Linqing's wife, a female guest, and was seriously ill in bed, so it was inconvenient to see outsiders.This collection is January, and no one really came to find it.

After hearing that the war in the imperial capital subsided, Chen Linqing took him away.Chen Linqing seemed to have a pre-booked escape plan in his hand, and I don't know how he planned it, and then took him all the way from Yuncheng to Taocheng, and then to Wancheng, and it seemed that he was going to Jiangcheng after that. look.Jiangcheng has a remote terrain, severe cold climate, few people, and strong folk customs.If Chen Linqing really wanted to take him to hide in Jiangcheng to hide his name, Huaiyu might not be able to find him again even if he spent his whole life.

At this moment, Xue Jia probably came back to her senses.

In the beginning, it was unavoidable to be a little panicked.He has never left Yuncheng since he was a child, and the farthest place he has been to so far is Taocheng with Huaiyu.Now he doesn't know where he's going, and he doesn't know the unknown dangers around him, let alone how he can escape from a completely strange place and return to Yuncheng smoothly under Chen Linqing's almost strict guard.And when he returned to Yuncheng, he couldn't predict what kind of things he would encounter, what the Gu family would think of him, and he couldn't help but feel a little flustered.

But gradually, Xue Jia calmed down.

If you don't save yourself, will people always save you?

For him, Chen Linqing gave up his family background and future, and he may continue to suffer in the future.Chen Linqing had given up so much for him, it was even more impossible to let him go.Now Chen Linqing's state is probably a little bit obsessed. If he fails to escape once, and instead scares the snake, it will only make Chen Linqing more prepared.So he had to get rid of Chen Linqing once and for all, and he must not let him chase him back.

He probably also knew that Chen Linqing mixed his daily medicine with his meals, and as long as he ate, he would definitely take the medicine.And this kind of medicine, taking too much, is afraid that it will harm the human body.He didn't want to be trapped by others, but he didn't want to anger Chen Linqing by going on a hunger strike.So ever since Chen Linqing took him away from the two men in black, he has been lowering Chen Linqing's vigilance, trying to make Chen Linqing relax his control over him, reduce the amount of drugs administered, and strive for as many possibilities as possible for himself to escape.

The person standing behind Chen Linqing certainly didn't just want to get him out of the Gu family.Probably it would be troublesome to kill him directly at Gu's house, so Chen Linqing was ordered to go to Gu's house to take him away, and it was very likely that he would attack him after leaving the city, but unfortunately they escaped.

The world is vast, so instead of finding him everywhere, the best way is to squat near Yuncheng.He will go back sooner or later, and the other party can directly guard the door, wait for him to go back and throw himself into the trap, and kill him before he returns to Gu's house.

So, he can't go back easily now.

Xue Jia recalled the administrative map of Yu State, and silently made a plan in her heart.Once he gets rid of Chen Linqing, he can no longer return to Yuncheng by the same route.He would rather hire a caravan, first go to Fancheng from Wancheng, and then take a boat from Fancheng, go around Huaicheng and return to Yuncheng in the opposite direction, and enter Yuncheng from the east gate.Mingfang Street, where the Gu family lives, is in Dongcheng District, and he will be able to return directly to the Gu family at that time.

I hope he can go back to see Huaiyu sooner.

Huaiyu... Huaiyu...

On weekdays, it's just a matter of observing the surroundings and looking for opportunities to escape. In the dead of night, the surroundings are silent, and once I think of Huaiyu, I feel a little pain in my heart.

Thinking of Jun is like a full moon, diminishing the brightness every night.
