Chapter 338 (1/2)
It was unknohat the Shadow had promised Fan Xian for him to accept the compensation for the ”accident” and to happily leave Shazhou the next day There was a downpour of chilly winter rain; it was desolate and dreary like a spell had been cast Fan Xian and his group, secretly entering Jiangnan, vanished into the low hills and forests outside of Shazhou
In the depths of the night, a few officials wearing full body rain jackets boarded the big shi+p fronan sailor's pier They took careful precautions Even the sailor responsible for welco them didn't clearly see their true appearances
At that e of ues boarding the shi+p in the rain and asked, ”You are all here What about the boss? The Qinian Unit left soht?”
An officer said with a pained expression, ”The boss said the setup should be as realistic as possible and left the Qinian Unit on the shi+p We were sent back with our faces hidden This way the sailor's people will believe he is on the shi+p Once this e is released, it will at least fool a few people”
Su Wen to enjoy this Since he's already revealed hi is a…” He forcefully sed the oath back down his throat He coughed a few tinan Road”
”March 3rd,” The member of the Qinian Unit said seriously ”The boat is to arrive in Suzhou on March 3rd The boss gave this date”
Su Weno that slowly?” He rose and swung his hand, and angrily said, ”No er in Sha Lake We must leave port tomorrow”
The official furrowed his brows ”Sir, what's wrong?”
Su Wennan sailors' camp, the commissioner and Third Prince still refused to leave the boat Of the various sailors' leaders, who do you think won't have s in their heart? These past two days, there has been an endless streaarrisons and commanders who have found excuses to co for an opportunity to please the two noblemen If the boss isn't on the shi+p, how could we dare to let therier he beca everyone co aboard these past two days ”I can hold back this level of officials, but I heard that the sailors' ad tomorrow afternoon He is a first level super official Even if the commissioner were here, he would have to obediently salute Even the Third Prince wouldn't be able to do much How I can obstruct hi to was also startled The status of the admiral could not be compared to those small fry officials Once that person arrived, this lie would be revealed The ad more to Commissioner Fan and the Third Prince other than suber at being tricked People like hi”
”Leave early touard the shi+p caan to instruct the sailor officials below to prepare to leave At the saer Guards and three Sixth Bureau swordsmen on the deck
”The boss said he will send sozhou You won't need to go” The official watched Su Wenifts”
Su Wenmao said, ”They're all in the back Those who control troops are truly rich They live up to being the capable people that protect the lives and shi+ps of the water bandits”
That official suddenly had a flash of inspiration ”Weren't you worried earlier about how to drag out the time until March 3rd? I have a plan, why don't we…”
He leaned next to Su Wen
Su Wenmao was overjoyed ”Good idea! Cos like this We are not allowed to accept silver fro hi and entreated ”Ah right, keep a close eye on the chest of silver in the back room The coet close to that chest”
That official hts differed Although the chest contains tens of thousands of silver, the commissioner's family is so rich Is it necessary to keep an eye on it like a faht after the fog on Sha Lake had disappeared, the aldou slowly left the dock under the ”reluctant” gazes of the Jiangnan sailors through the conduit and out of Sha Lake It went slowly and joyfully into the territory of the Yangtze River
Watching the big shi+p disappear into the mouth of the lake, the three shi+ps tasked with their protection also followed along On the shore, the Jiangnan sailors and generals released a breath Finally they had sent away the two plague Gods they didn't dare coifts they had given these days that seeone to waste, they also felt a bit pained
As for thehad a run in with thieves in the sailors' garrison area—of course there would have to be a scapegoat The glances the generals sent toward garrison Shen were pitying, but no one at thehad to wait until the admiral returned to camp later that afternoon to decide
Su Wennan sailors had to wait until the second day for the adure in Jiangnan, Admiral shi+ was not anxious at all to arrive He was only anxious to arrive not too quickly
Admiral shi+ was a first-level official and disciple and friend of the old Qin fadou He was not afraid of Fan Xian He knew that if he rushed back to meet with Fan Xian and ran into him and the Third Prince's lie, he would have to lower his status to speak To be sycophantic to a child whose beard hadn't even grown out, to a bird who had yet to grow feathers, where would his dignity and face go?
Thus on one hand, Old shi+ sent so business elsewhere and was speeding back with all haste to greet the Third Prince On the other hand, he held his favorite prostitute and sat in his carriage, swaying back and forth on his way toward the sailors, la that the path was too short
In the end, Ad By the ti of the other side, Su Wen Fan Xian's orders, he accepted the official's suggestion and stopped every time he came across a province or dock He didn't care whether the pier was run down or only a small town of a few thousand on the river side, he simply went and stopped, went and stopped A dock a day, no rush at all
The e It stirred up all nan Road
