After Xiao Zimu finished saying that, he walked out of the house.
Yin Guangbo looked at Mao Xianchun who was still kneeling on the ground, curled his lips, and jumped from him to the door on tiptoes.
Mao Xianchun came back from the shock, gritted his teeth, showed a sinister look on his face, and laughed evilly.
Holding the lower back that had just been kicked by Xin Ya, he managed to stand up.
He spat silently towards the door.
"Your Highness, I really didn't realize that Xin Ya is still so wilted." Yin Guangbo chased after Xiao Zimu and sighed with emotion.
Xiao Zimu didn't take it seriously. Everyone who came out of the palace was not used to seeing the look.
Xin Ya had been following him for so long, and he just frowned slightly.
Xin Ya kicked him up calmly, and he just kicked him. He was wronged by Zheng Zhongguang, and he had no intention of letting him end well.
"Your Highness, where are you going?" After hearing the report that Zheng Zhongguang had been taken away, Lu Zhongfu hurried over and bumped into Xiao Zimu who was going out.
Xiao Zimu didn't reply and glanced at him.
"My lord, he..." Lu Zhongfu looked worried, but he hesitated to speak.
"Steward Lu, please don't get involved in this matter." Yin Guangbo felt that this man was quite loyal, so he advised him, fearing that his innocence would be implicated.
Lu Zhongfu was also a sensible person and knew that he could not say anything more at this time, so he bowed respectfully to Xiao Zimu and said, "I have prepared a carriage for His Highness. I hope Your Highness will not dislike it."
Xiao Zimu nodded, accepting the sentiment.
Lu Zhongfu hurriedly walked to the front in a few steps and sent them out of the house and onto the carriage.
"Your Highness, where are we going?" Yin Guangbo asked while sitting in the carriage.
"Go back to the inn." After Xiao Zimu finished speaking, he closed his eyes and rested his mind.
"Going back now?" Yin Guangbo looked at the time, it was just past noon.
"The carriages that delivered the seeds are all gathered at the inn now." Xiao Zimu still closed his eyes, and his gloomy mood improved slightly when he talked about the batch of seeds delivered at the beginning of the summer.
Yin Guangbo nodded, and found that Xiao Zimu had his eyes closed, so he quickly responded: "Then you should go back earlier."
Xiao Zimu stopped talking, and Yin Guangbo also fell silent.
The carriage drove for a while and suddenly stopped.
"What's going on?" Yin Guangbo asked.
"Master Yin, the road ahead is blocked, I'm afraid we have to get down and walk." The driver of the car replied.
Xiao Zimu opened his eyes when he heard this, and Yin Guangbo quickly went down first, then stretched out his hand to give him a hand.
After the two got off the carriage, they took a look and saw that there were about fifteen or six carriages parked in the alley leading to the inn. They were lined up there. It was really not easy to walk.
The two were about to walk over when the groom behind them called out: "Your Highness, Butler Lu told me to wait here. If you go out, just call me."
Xiao Zimu nodded and walked towards the inn.
Yin Guangbo chased after him and saw the word "Emperor" on the roof of each carriage, and the word "Anfeng" on both sides of the carriage windows.
"Your Highness, these are all imperial guards..." Yin Guangbo sighed with emotion.
Xiao Zimu also didn't expect that the Anfeng Escort Bureau, personally appointed by the emperor, would deliver the seeds with such great fanfare.
The person leading the motorcade was actually Qiu Zhiting.
It was Qiu Zhiting who went to the palace to represent Anfeng and was appointed as the royal bodyguard. Xiao Zimu also heard about Lu Mingxi's case.
Therefore, when I saw him being conferred that day, I took a second look.
Unexpectedly, he came to escort him personally.
Qiu Zhiting saw Xiao Zimu and Yin Guangbo approaching from a distance, and went to greet them.
After looking at Xiao Zimu, he asked tentatively: "But His Majesty the Seventh Prince."
Xiao Zimu nodded and said, "How did you know it was me?"
"The employer said that the person who receives the goods is as gentle as jade, and the jade tree stands in the wind. Isn't it you, Your Highness." Qiu Zhiting flattered.
Xiao Zimu looked at him with a smile.
"The employer also hand-painted a portrait." Seeing this, Qiu Zhiting had no choice but to add another sentence.
"Bring the portrait to me." Xiao Zimu ordered him.
"Yes." Qiu Zhiting took out a folded portrait from his arms and presented it with respectful hands.
Xiao Zimu shook it away.
Well.
Yin Guangbo also came up to take a look, and couldn't help but curl his lips and said: "This painting skill is not really good, but the charm is still quite similar."
Xiao Zimu glared at him, this was Xia Chu's hand-painted drawing.
He folded it carefully, put it in his arms, and said to Qiu Zhiting: "You have no use for this portrait now, so give it to me."
Qiu Zhiting responded yes, how dare he refuse to give it.
Xiao Zimu touched his body and forgot that he had no money.
Seeing that Xin Ya was not around again, he was ordered to escort Zheng Zhongguang to the prison.
Xiao Zimu then looked at Yin Guangbo.
Yin Guangbo looked at Xiao Zimu's questioning eyes without knowing why.
Seeing that he was so clueless, Xiao Zimu had no choice but to whisper in his ear: "Do you have any money on you?"
Yin Guangbo suddenly realized it. He took it out of his sleeve and replied to Xiao Zimu: "There are still some scraps of money."
Qiu Zhiting heard Yin Guangbo's words from the side, smiled clearly, and said to Xiao Zimu: "No need, the employer is a distinguished member of our escort agency, your highness can just accept the goods."
What Qiu Zhiting said was true, not to mention that he didn't want the reward.
Even the delivery money was confiscated by him.
Since Anfeng became the imperial escort, it has grown stronger and faster than expected.
In just half a year, escort bureaus have been set up in all major cities.
This escort trip started from Yucheng and passed through Jiangzhou. Qiu Zhiting learned that the employer presented An Feng's seal, so he put aside what he was doing and escorted the escort himself.
After hearing what Qiu Zhiting said, Yin Guangbo froze his hands in his sleeves and asked Xiao Zimu: "Your Highness, will you give it back?"
Xiao Zimu listened to Qiu Zhiting's words before and felt deeply that Xia Chu's network of contacts was really extensive. Then he heard Yin Guangbo ask this question thoughtfully, and couldn't help but look embarrassed on his face, with a hint of displeasure in his tone. He said to him: "The reward should still be given."
When Yin Guangbo heard this, he said "Oh" and took out the silver from his sleeve.
Qiu Zhiting hurriedly declined and said: "Zhe Sha is down, Zhe Sha is down."
The two pushed and pushed for a long time, and Xiao Zimu coughed before they stopped.
Xiao Zimu glanced at the money in Yin Guangbo's hand and saw that it was only five taels.
A face as gentle as jade immediately turned red with embarrassment.
Qiu Zhiting looked over, looking quite embarrassed.
Only Yin Guangbo was still pushing and saying: "You'd better accept it, the reward should still be given."
Xiao Zimu was almost breathless by his words and couldn't help but scolded him.
"Forget it, it's okay if I don't give you the reward."
