Chapter 392: get something

Chapter 392 Let's talk after getting something

Su Ying took out the flashlight from his body and turned it on, almost the area at the foot of the mountain was illuminated.

She stepped forward to check the identities of the men in black one by one, but there was nothing on them.

She squeezed their mouths open and saw that there was a poison bag hidden inside, which was a dead soldier.

Xiao Jin sent people to follow her behind, but their speed was not that fast. In order not to attract attention, those people would deliberately keep a certain distance from her.

Su Ying took out the signal bomb from his body and threw it into the sky. The sky exploded with a "pop", and the hidden guard not far away quickly discovered it.

After waiting for nearly half an hour, the dark guard finally rushed over.

"See Queen."

"Get up, these people are here to assassinate me, you deal with it yourself, I will continue on my way."

"yes."

After handing over the man in black to the hidden guard, Su Ying got on his horse and continued on his way.

When approaching the boundary of Jingzhou, it began to rain heavily.

Su Ying took out the air canopy from the space to cover it, and the rain couldn't get on her body at all. She didn't see the gate of Jingzhou City until dawn the next day.

Looking from a distance, there is a thick black cloud covering Jingzhou City, as if it is going to crush Jingzhou City, it is so thick that it is hard to breathe.

Su Ying continued to drive forward and came to the city gate.

I don’t know if it’s because of the fear of Yu Yuyu, there are many people waiting in line at the gate of the city to leave the city, and very few people go in.

In order not to attract attention, Su Ying changed into ordinary men's clothes when she approached the city gate. After arriving at the city gate, she handed over her customs clearance document to the official. The official checked that there was no problem before letting her in.

Xiao Jin said that Zhu Lin lived in the Chengshou Mansion, and after asking passers-by about the way, Su Ying immediately went to the Chengshou Mansion.

Jingzhou's Chengshoufu is located on the busiest street in Jingzhou City. Su Ying looked at the three big characters "Chengshoufu" written in red gold on a black background and got off his horse.

It's just that as soon as she approached, the official guard outside the door stopped her.

"Who, you can easily approach the City Guard's Mansion, so don't leave quickly."

"I want to see your city guard."

While speaking, Su Ying took out the token on her body.

The guard was startled when he saw the dragon pattern on the jade tablet, and immediately changed his face and invited Su Ying to the room in the outer courtyard, "Wait a moment, we will send a message to the lord."

The guard came back not long after he left, followed by a middle-aged man, wearing a dark blue official robe, with a small goatee on his face, and a pair of thin eyes that looked bureaucratic. shrewd.

"I have seen this lord before, I wonder if he is here to deliver the drawings?" Yi Kun asked directly.

"Yes, where is Zhu Lin?"

Yi Kun got up and said: "Your Excellency, I don't know. After arriving in Jingzhou, Master Zhu was busy working day and night for the dam and fell ill the day before yesterday. He is still unconscious. I am ashamed that the next official did not take good care of Master Zhu."

Su Ying frowned, "Zhu Lin fell ill?"

"Yes, now people are still recuperating at home."

"I gonna go see."

Su Ying got up and was about to go out, but Yi Kun stepped forward to block Su Ying's way.

"My lord, don't worry, Mr. Zhu is fine, but he is too tired and caught the wind and cold, and he is still in a coma. The most important thing now is to repair the new dam as soon as possible. Just in case, please take the blueprint first." Come out."

Su Yingfeng took a heavy look at Yi Kun, "I'll go and have a look, I can't delay this quarter of an hour."

Yi Kun saw Su Ying's insistence, so he accompanied her to Zhu Lin's resting place.

The maid pushed open the door of the guest room and Su Ying smelled a strong smell of medicine.

Yi Kun saw Su Ying frown and explained: "Because Mr. Zhu is suffering from the cold, he can't be crazy, so the lower officials ordered people to close the doors and windows."

Su Ying didn't say anything, but walked straight to the bed.

There was a person lying on the bed, it was Zhu Lin.

It's just that Zhu Lin's face at this time is completely different from the previous humble face, his face is extremely pale, and the color of his lips is so pale that he can't see clearly.

Su Ying stretched out her hand to check Zhu Lin's pulse, and found that his qi and blood were extremely weak. It was just a cold. How could it be so serious? She felt something was wrong.

She stretched out her hand to lift the quilt from Zhu Lin's body and was about to check his condition, when Yi Kun suddenly stepped forward and pulled the quilt over Zhu Lin.

"My lord, Mr. Zhu caught the wind and cold, and his body is already so weak that he must not catch a cold anymore. Please forgive me."

Su Ying glanced at Yi Kun again, but didn't insist anymore, but followed him to the study.

"I don't know what your name is, what is your position in the palace?" Yi Kun asked.

"The imperial servant."

Yi Kun saw that Su Ying didn't want to say more and didn't ask further, but asked Su Ying to take out the blueprint.

"Go to the dam first to have a look. I want to know what's wrong with the new dam."

Yi Kun didn't refuse, and asked people to prepare the carriage.

"My lord please."

The dam is in the mountains, and there is a certain distance from the city. In order to save time, Su Ying did not take a carriage, but rode a horse.

Yi Kun saw that Su Ying was riding a horse, and it was not easy for him to ride in a car, so he had to ask the official to bring a horse over.

In order to build a new dam, the imperial court opened a road. Although it is a yellow mud road, it is much easier to walk than the mountain road.

It was almost noon when they raced all the way to Xinba.

Su Ying stood halfway up the mountain, took out the binoculars from his body, and looked at the building not far away. The new dam should be there.

When I went up, there was still a lot of work on the construction of the new dam. Seeing Su Ying and the others coming, a man who looked like a foreman hurried over and nodded to Yi Kun obsequiously.

"Why are you here, my lord? It's raining and the mountain roads are muddy now. Don't get your shoes dirty."

Yi Kun glanced at him, "It is my duty to monitor the progress of the repair and completion of the new dam. This is a man from the capital. You must not be rude."

When the foreman heard this, his smiling face turned to Su Ying, "It turns out that you are an official from the capital. You are really disrespectful. Don't worry, both adults. There will never be any problems on the dam side."

Su Ying doesn't know much about construction, but seeing those workers keep doing this work on the dam, there is really nothing unusual at first glance.

"Didn't it say that there is something wrong with the new dam and needs to be repaired internally? Why? Now it's all right again?"

The smile on the foreman's face froze, but he quickly came back to his senses, "Yes, yes, it needs to be repaired. Now we are waiting for the original drawing from the imperial court, so that we can know how to repair it."

"My lord, you heard it too. The most important thing for now is to get the original picture, and then fix the problematic places as soon as possible."

Su Ying nodded upon hearing the words, "Master Yi is right."

After a simple inspection, Su Ying followed Yi Kun down the mountain and returned to the Chengshou Mansion.

At this time, night fell and the sky was already dark.

Su Ying said that she was hungry, and Yi Kun said that she held a small banquet for her at night, but Su Ying refused.

"No, send the food to my room. After a brief meal, we will discuss how to fix the problem of the dam."

Yi Kun didn't reject what she said, so he asked his servants to bring the food to her guest room.

After the door of the guest room was closed, the attendant went to the study.

"My lord, the food has been delivered. This man from the capital doesn't look like a scheming man."

Yi Kun had no expression on his face, he didn't dare to show affection to people from Beijing easily, because he couldn't figure out the other party's mind.

"No matter what, let's get the original picture first."
