"Escape?! You said that Zhou Ruqing was going to escape outside the Great Zhou?!"
"That's right!"
Corrupt officials who are almost on the verge of desperation, but they don't care about the steel knife around their necks.
All these things put together, others may not see what Zhou Ruqing's idea was due to the limitations of the times and the traditional concept of inseparability of the homeland, but Sun Shaozong immediately thought of the word 'escape'.
After all, in the era he once lived in, the escape of corrupt officials could be said to be the most common routine!
In the face of such a mortal situation, Zhou Ruqing and others want to survive, and they are afraid that they have to 'run away with money'!
And because Jinmen House is quite a distance from the land border, if you want to flee with a lot of gold and silver, there are almost only sea routes to choose from.
Therefore, Sun Shaozong was only at the dock, and he paid attention to those big ships that could go to sea, hoping to find evidence that Zhou Ruqing was trying to escape.
It's just that the number of these ships actually exceeded Sun Shaozong's expectations.
But he didn't dare to startle the snake right now, so he could only send someone to investigate secretly - but only relying on the two subordinate officials and a servant, but he didn't know when to find out.
If no clues are found, Zhou Ruqing would have fled to the sea with the people first, and then trying to retrieve those people's fat and people's cream would be as difficult as going to the sky.
Therefore, on the way back, Sun Shaozong wondered where to find more people.
In fact, the soldiers and horses that have been completed are not without. In the local dragon guards hundred households, there are at least thirty or forty people who can be sent by him.
But the problem is that Sun Shaozong has never even seen Jia Shanyao's face, let alone how he has a relationship with the Governor's Office on weekdays - if Jia Shanyao himself is involved, wouldn't asking him for help would be tantamount to throwing himself in the net
I was in a dilemma, but coincidentally, I bumped into this Yi and was made difficult by others. I saw that he was upright, somewhat bookish, and had a grudge with the Governor's Office, so he hit his idea.
Different from Sun Shaozong's habit of light car and Jian Cong, this year's official travel, almost all of them are front and back, and Xiang Yi is no exception.
The servants he accompanied, plus the servants he carried, there were at least a dozen or so, as long as half of them could be trusted, it would be enough.
It was only after Sun Shaozong briefly analyzed his inference with this Yi, Xiang Yi shook his head like a rattle: "I can't, I can't make it! Those idiots usually run errands. Cheng, how dare you entrust such a big relationship to them? If the news is leaked, won't Xiang become a sinner for the ages?!"
Immediately, he gritted his teeth and said, "It's really not possible, so Xiang Mou dressed up and went in person..."
"There's no need for that!"
Sun Shaozong hurriedly interrupted him, this Yijing is a standard literati, and there is no distinction between five bodies and four grains.
"Brother Xiang, in fact, there is no need to tell the people below about the joints, we just need to..."
Sun Shaozong explained a few words like this, and Xiang Yi suddenly felt his eyes light up.
He didn't even bother to ask Sun Shaozong's opinion, he grabbed the door in a few steps, and said loudly: "Call everyone in, I have something to explain to you!"
Those people's officials and servants all knew that he had just suffered grievances, and he was full of resentment and had nowhere to vent.
As expected by Sun Shaozong, there were as many as fifteen people, young and old.
"Brother Xiang."
Sun Shaozong was busy and reminded in a low voice: "It's just a matter of finding a few capable ones, there is no need to send them all out."
Xiang Yi was stunned at this moment. He hurriedly hurried the people who were usually stupid and rushed outside to continue carrying luggage, and then said to the rest of the people: "You all know that now the Governor's Mansion is full of anger and has nowhere to go, so he took his anger out on us Cangzhou people. If you are dead, if you stay in this Jinmen Mansion, it is hard to say whether this faculty can go back alive."
As soon as everyone heard this, they waited for a few words to comfort him.
Xiang Yi waved his hand and said, "I don't need to say anything else. I just discussed with Master Sun. Instead of staying here and waiting to die, it is better to just find a way to leave this place."
leave this place
Everyone was a little dumbfounded, and one of the officials boldly reminded: "Sir, according to the order of the Governor's Office, now this Jinmen can only enter but not exit..."
"Confused!"
Xiang Yi glared and said angrily, "Brows are on fire, how can we manage so much?"
After a pause, he lowered his voice slightly and said: "Besides, you have also seen the anxious look of the Governor's Mansion. Lord Zhou is afraid that he will not be able to protect himself this time. As long as we can escape these few days, we don't have to worry about him being pursued afterwards. It's gone!"
There is some truth to everyone listening to this. They may not know what the Governor's Mansion was like before, but they will definitely not be able to please them in the future just because of the behavior of arbitrarily arresting people and raiding their homes in the past two days.
"Actually, this official has already inquired clearly."
Sun Shaozong interjected in a timely manner: "Although there are patrol boats guarding the canal at the north and south ends, the direction of going to sea is not set. As long as we can find a boat that is willing to go to sea, it will be much easier to leave Jinmen."
"exactly!"
Xiang Yi added: "It's best to use a large sea boat, because in addition to me and Master Sun, there are two colleagues who also intend to leave together. Ordinary boats may not be able to accommodate so many people."
"You don't have to ask one by one."
Sun Shaozong said again: "Nowadays, people in this city are panicking, and no one knows whether the next person to be raided is himself. According to this official's inference, there must be a sea merchant who thought of something with us!"
"So you just need to find out, there are those large ships in the past two days that have added supplies to the sea, and it is enough to come back and report."
The two explained it clearly in a few words, and promised a large sum of money. Only then did they call the three of Sun Shaozong's men and send them out to inquire about the news.
When the people in the living room were all scattered, Xiang Yi suddenly collapsed on the teacher's chair, gasping for breath.
After a long while, he slowed down a bit, but asked nervously: "Master Sun, if we do this, can we really hide from the people in the Governor's Mansion?"
"It's not that easy to completely fool the past, so you have to release fake news." Sun Shaozong spread his hands and said, "I want to go back to my eldest brother's wedding, but you were almost caught in prison, eager to leave the right and wrong place, It all makes sense.”
"And if Governor Zhou really intends to flee, he won't dare to delay it for too long - I guess it will be the limit until the day after tomorrow at most."
"As a result, even if we escape tomorrow, we won't have time to go to the capital and ask for help."
"So even if the Governor's Office has the news, it should not pay attention to our 'irrelevant and careful thoughts', and naturally it will not be alarmed."
Sun Shaozong said this, seeing that Xiang Yi had completely relaxed, he smiled again: "Of course, this is just my own speculation, if Governor Zhou is vigilant enough..."
Halfway through, he stopped.
Xiang Yi immediately raised his heart to his throat again, and asked, "What would happen if Zhou Ruqing was vigilant enough?!"
"If Governor Zhou is vigilant enough, I'm afraid I can only kill him all the way from here to the Governor's Mansion and capture him alive!"
When Sun Shaozong said that, he laughed.
Xiang Yi thought he was joking, so he also laughed.
