The strongman's wife who traveled through time and space and became a young general

When Lin Qiuer and Lin Xiatian walked out of the cave, they saw a group of people gathered at the cave entrance.

The leader was a middle-aged man in black with a scar on his chin, followed by a group of people also in black. The appearance of this group of people surprised Lin Qiuer.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?" Lin Qiuer asked coldly.

"Miss, how are you? I wonder if you still remember the flying knife letter outside the blacksmith shop." Shen Xiangming said with a smile.

"How do you prove it's you? There are so many scammers in this world who specifically cheat mountain people like us." Lin Qiuer raised her eyebrows and asked back indifferently.

"Lin Nanyue is being chased. Hurry out of the city and go to the Nalan Mountains to rescue her." Shen Xiangming looked very good-tempered, smiling, and spoke word by word.

Lin Qiuer and Lin Nanye looked at each other. It seemed that this person had indeed sent them a letter.

"What are you doing here?" Lin Qiuer continued to ask.

"I want the people who are still alive in the cave, and the things in their hands." Shen Xiangming pointed inside the cave and made his request.

Lin Qiu'er looked at the scarred man in front of her, her mind spinning rapidly. These people in front of her knew the whereabouts of the Third Prince's men very well, and it was obvious that they had been eyeing them for a long time.

And no one in Lingao County, except the Gu and Song families, has so many guards.

Suddenly I remembered that the county magistrate's wife said that when the county magistrate came to Lingao County, there was also a team of elite soldiers traveling with him.

But after arriving in Lingao County, this elite team disappeared without a trace.

"Did you come to Lin Gao with the county magistrate?" Although it was a question, she was actually certain in her heart.

Shen Xiangming had a look of surprise on his face. He didn't expect that this little girl from the mountains had such a channel of information and could actually guess that they came with the county magistrate.

"Indeed. You are very smart." Shen Xiangming's face was full of praise, and he continued, "Are you interested in joining us?"

Lin Qiuer rolled her eyes rudely in front of everyone and said, "You are sick, but I am not. You have a good life of freedom, so why join an organization and risk your life?"

When Ye Anlan heard this, he shrugged and laughed.

He couldn't stop. When had this boss ever been called sick? Anyway, ever since he heard of the boss's illustrious reputation, no one had dared to speak to him like that.

This was the first time that Shen Xiangming was scolded by someone, and by a teenage girl. He should have been angry, but maybe because she was too similar to the person in his memory, he didn't get angry but laughed instead.

"Little girl, you are so young, why are you so angry? And how do you know that joining us is not good and you will have no freedom?"

Seeing that this man was not angered by her deliberate words, Lin Qiuer felt that there was something wrong with this man. After all, she had used the strategy of deliberately angering people countless times since she came here, and it always worked.

"Hey, that baby-faced guy, after you join this organization, can you sleep until you wake up naturally every day, go wherever you want, eat whatever you want, and do whatever you want?" Lin Qiuer asked Ye Anlan, because his happiness was so obvious just now.

Ye Anlan was a little confused when Lin Qiuer suddenly called his name. With every question she asked, his expression became uglier. He couldn't answer yes against his conscience.

So he decisively chose to shut up.

Lin Qiuer no longer needed Ye Anlan's answer. She could tell the answer from his extremely ugly expression.

"Look at it. I'm not crazy. I have a good life of freedom, but I have to live a life like this where I can't sleep well, can't eat well, can't have fun, and my freedom is restricted."

Shen Xiangming didn't expect that in Lin Qiuer's eyes, only people with a crazy mind would go to the place that everyone envied and tried their best to get into in the imperial city.

"Little girl, if you change your mind, you can come to me anytime." He took off his badge from his waist and threw it to Lin Qiuer.

When Lin Qiuer saw the thing flying towards her, she took out a handkerchief from her bosom and covered it. She opened her palm and saw the three words "Inspectorate" engraved on the front of the sign. When she turned it over, she saw only the word "Shen" on the back.

"Your Inspectorate is so careless in doing things. You only engraved the surname but not the given name. If someone finds your sign, how can they know who it belongs to?" Lin Qiu'er complained, "Could it be that there is only one person with the surname Shen in your Inspectorate?"

Ye Anlan said at the side, "It's not that there is only one person with the surname Shen, but the only one with the surname Shen who can be listed is the boss."

"Oh, it looks like he's of high status and importance." Lin Qiuer said indifferently.

That expression of not taking Shen Xiangming seriously made all the men in black behind him turn pale and roar in their hearts: This little girl is really ungrateful!

"Not bad, not bad." Shen Xiangming responded modestly, and then said, "Then in consideration of saving Lin Nanyue, can you hand over the survivors and the things inside to me?"

Lin Qiu'er's playful eyes seemed to say, "What do you think?"

The corners of her mouth curled slightly, and the words she uttered once again hurt the self-esteem of Shen Xiangming's subordinates, "This play of 'repaying kindness with kindness' is really brilliant. It's true that people who come from that place of 'eating people without spitting out bones' just like these methods."

"So does this method work, or not?" Shen Xiangming became more and more interested in Lin Qiuer. It was rare for her to be able to fight against a veteran like him at such a young age without losing.

Lin Qiuer glanced at him suspiciously, "You came to Lin Gao for so long just for these useless people and information?"

She didn't believe that the people in the Inspectorate would be so idle as to send a team of elite soldiers from thousands of miles away for such a small matter.

"Have you ever done anything bad to General Gu's family?" she asked bluntly.

When the Gu family guards heard this, their faces changed drastically and they stared at Shen Xiangming nervously.

Shen Xiangming glanced at them and knew that if he didn't show his sincerity, he would not only be tricked by Lin Qiuer, but also incur the hostility of the Gu family.

He took a deep breath and said, "We are just observing and will not take any action. Besides, the people who attacked the Gu family were not the same people as those in the cave."

Lin Qiu'er looked at him doubtfully, "Young Master Gu was being hunted in the Nalan Mountains and was poisoned. Old Master Gu was poisoned by an unknown person and was also lying in bed. The old and the young are all down, don't you have any ideas?" Her words revealed her suspicion of the imperial city.

Shen Xiangming frowned. He understood what Lin Qiuer meant - the people in the imperial city were worried that the Gu family would monopolize the military power here, so they sent them to cause trouble, or even poison them.

He smiled bitterly and said, "Although I don't know why a little girl like you would have such an idea, I can tell you that we did not attack the Gu Mansion."

Lin Qiu'er stared at him, trying to find flaws in his expression and tone.

In the end, she deduced that the poisoning of the young and old in the Gu family had nothing to do with the people in front of her.

"You didn't do anything, you just stood by and watched. Haha, this is a bit like my ex-fiancé who broke the engagement and fell in love with someone else." Her voice suddenly became low and sad, "I didn't mean to hurt you, I just didn't tell you."
