Tea Merchants of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 99: The Masked Hero

Masked hero?

Before Jiang Yin responded, Jiang Erniang asked anxiously, "Where is he now? Is he injured?"

Well, as soon as these words came out, Jiang Yin knew that the masked hero must be Xie Daoyun.

Yan Ge'er hesitated, not knowing what to say.

Jiang Erniang stamped her feet anxiously and said, "Oh, please tell me quickly. It doesn't matter, just tell me the truth."

Seeing his hesitant look, if you didn't know him, you would think that he was hiding a serious injury.

Yan Ge'er turned his head to look at Jiang Yin, and when he saw Jiang Yin nod, he said, "He left with Mr. Li. He was slightly injured, nothing serious, not as seriously injured as Mr. Li."

The important thing is that the second uncle seems to be very familiar with Mr. Li.

He knew a little about who Mr. Li was, but he didn't know why the second uncle was so familiar with Mr. Li, as if they were old friends. It was not his place to ask.

He just wanted to talk to his wife about the situation in private when no one was around so that she would have some idea of ​​what was going on.

However, looking at his wife's expression, it seemed that she was not surprised by this matter.

Jiang Yin was of course not surprised, because she knew exactly the true identities of Xie Daoyun and Li Ji, as well as their relationship.

"Injured?" Jiang Erniang's pupils shrank slightly, and she was about to rush out, "Let's go, I want to go check out the situation too."

When it comes to the safety of her husband, she still feels a little uneasy.

But then she paused and shook her head, "No, no, no, I'll go, Yin, you stay home and wait for news. We'll keep an eye on Gongcha and Madam Feng."

Ayin couldn't put herself in danger, so she just stayed at home to look after the tea plantation.

"Let's go together." Jiang Yin took Jiang Erniang's hand and walked out. "Come on, Erniang, let's go early and come back early. With the army sent by the prefect here, they can't cause any trouble."

If the army is still unable to defeat the rebels, then she would really doubt whether they can defend Yazhou City.

Seeing that Jiang Yin was really going to do this, Jiang Erniang gritted her teeth and walked away: "Let's go, Ah Yin, don't worry, I will protect your safety even if I risk my life."

Jiang Yin smiled slightly and said nothing more, letting Yan Ge'er drive the carriage to take them to the provincial capital.

Xiao Luo also wanted to go this time, Jiang Yin didn't refuse and simply took her along.

In addition to Yan Ge'er, Jiang Yin also chose the one with the least injuries among those who returned to lead the way.

The carriage drove straight ahead towards the city.

However, when passing by Yazhou City, Jiang Yin suddenly thought that Li Ji and his men might have withdrawn, so he decided to go back to Yazhou's mansion first.

She first went to her own Jiang Mansion, but found no one there, so she went to Jiang Er Niang and her family's home in Yazhou City.

Sure enough, just as she expected, Xie Daoyun was at their home in Yazhou City at this moment.

Not only Xie Daoyun was here, but even Li Ji was hiding here to recuperate.

Seeing their figures, Xie Daoyun, who was originally on guard, relaxed his brows, quickly moved to Jiang Erniang, took her hand and said, "Madam, why are you here?"

As he spoke, his relaxed brows furrowed again: "It's dangerous outside, why don't you wait for me at home? I'll be back soon."

"Humph, go back?" Jiang Erniang snorted coldly, "You didn't even come back after getting hurt. You made me worry about you."

She angrily hit Xie Daoyun a few times, and then Xie Daoyun pulled her into his arms to comfort her.

Jiang Yin: ...

Here it comes again and again. As long as Er Niang is around, Xie Daoyun only has Er Niang in his eyes.

However, she could understand it. After all, Er Niang was also a rare beauty.

Even the slightly chubby baby fat on her face couldn't conceal her beauty.

She complained silently in her heart, then walked towards Li Ji, leaving space for Er Niang and her husband.

At this moment, Li Ji was sitting on a stone bench with his bare chest, his arm wrapped in gauze, which was stained with fresh blood.

It looked like a fresh wound that had just been bandaged.

Jiang Yin looked a little uncomfortable, but still bowed to Li Ji and said, "Mr. Li, you have worked hard on the journey. I wonder if the tribute tea is okay?"

Even though he had seen Li Ji's body countless times in his previous life, he couldn't hide the embarrassment that was overwhelming him.

However, no matter how embarrassing it was, it couldn't stop her from caring about Gongcha.

Li Ji's ears turned red. He calmly pulled up his clothes and said faintly, "Shouldn't Miss Jiang be concerned about my injuries first?"

His wounds were in such an obvious position, he didn't believe that Jiang Yin didn't see them.

Jiang Yin paused and said, "Mr. Li's injury is serious. Do you need to call a doctor?"

It's just a matter of saying a few words, it won't cost you anything.

Li Ji's mouth twitched slightly, and then he said speechlessly: "Thank you for your kindness, Miss Jiang, the doctor is not necessary."

No? That's good.

Jiang Yin sat directly opposite Li Ji, and said with a smile: "So, I wonder if Gongcha is okay?"

In fact, looking at Li Ji's appearance, she was sure that Gongcha was safe.

Li Ji glanced at her and said in a sour tone, "Good, very good, much better than those of us who are injured. Maybe, he has already left Shu."

There were too many people who wanted to get involved in Mengshan tea this time, and he had already thought of a countermeasure.

On the one hand, he led his men out in a high-profile manner and took a clear route to the provincial capital.

On the other hand, another group of people disguised themselves as courier and escorted the tribute tea to Tokyo quickly.

Generally speaking, no one would have expected him to make such an arrangement.

Those with bad intentions would only target his team in the open, and would not stop the anxious people running around every day.

The fact was just as he expected. All the people in the dark rushed towards him and paid no attention to Ji Jiaodi.

But I didn't expect that this time, in addition to the assassins from Tokyo, the rebels were also blown out.

He had already investigated and found out some clues about the rebels. Now that they had come to his doorstep, he could just follow the clues and catch all the rebels in one fell swoop.

Not only that, because this matter completely excited the prefect, he could also join forces with the prefect to act together.

Jiang Yin's eyes lit up slightly, and he said in surprise, "So, the tribute tea will definitely be delivered to Tokyo safely, right?"

As long as it can be delivered safely, the rest has nothing to do with her.

"Of course, you can rest assured that I will do the job." Li Ji straightened his chest slightly, after all, he still wanted to leave a good impression in front of Jiang Yin.

Jiang Yin gave a thumbs up and praised generously: "Yes, yes, Mr. Li is amazing."

She blinked and continued, "I heard that one of the assassins used chains as weapons. I wonder if Mr. Li knows who that assassin is?"

The assassin who could hurt Li Ji must be of great importance, just like Li Ji.

No wonder she had no clues after searching in Yazhou and Fucheng for so long.

However, Li Ji answered irrelevantly and asked, "What are you trying to do, Miss Jiang? Do you want to avenge me?"
