The big bandit in the Red Mansion robbed Lin Daiyu at the beginning

Li Kui was delighted when he heard this and he hurriedly bowed and said,

"Thank you, Mr. Xu!"

At the same time, I felt a sudden sense of relief.

Mr. Xu nodded slightly and said,

"In that case, I won't stay here any longer. Give me a warrant to leave the city. I will leave the city tonight and head north to pass this message back!"

Li Kui was shocked when he heard this.

"But sir, those bandits outside right now..."

Mr. Xu waved his hand confidently.

"They are just a bunch of bandits. I have my own way of dealing with them. Just bring me the warrant!"

"The rest has nothing to do with you!"

Upon hearing this, Li Kui didn't know what to say anymore and quickly bowed to accept the order.

"Yes, Mr. Xu!"

……

In the Lin Mansion.

After Lin Ruhai heard Uncle Lin's report on the street outside, the people of Qingfeng Village ordered all the gangs to start chaos.

I stood there for a long time,

Then he sighed heavily.

He did not regret it. As an official appointed by the court and favored by the emperor, how could he go along with bandits!

But when he thought about the great hero who was very capable and might very well become his son-in-law, his life ended there.

What a pity!

Lin Ruhai also had a faint and inexplicable emotion in his heart.

Moreover, anyone with a discerning eye could see the affection between Qingfeng Li and his daughter.

I'm afraid that with Yu'er's personality, she will never be able to let go of it in this life.

After sighing, Lin Ruhai said to Lin Bo with a pinched heart,

"Yu'er must not be informed of this matter! The people Qingfeng Li arranged for Rong Mama to stay in the mansion..."

When he said this, a cold light flashed in Lin Ruhai's eyes.

But after closing his eyes and thinking for a moment, he said,

"Yu'er is their master after all. Keep them away from any news and let them follow Yu'er into the capital!"

Uncle Lin was shocked when he heard this.

"Master, if that happens, the young lady will..."

By now, he already knew some of the things he should and shouldn't know when Lin Ruhai first planned this matter.

Knowing that Rong Mama and others were arranged by Li Qingfeng to protect his young lady,

But they are all born as bandits and accompany the young lady day and night. What if they have bad intentions?

Furthermore, even if they had no intention, what would the Lin family do if their identities were leaked?

Lin Ruhai naturally understood Lin Bo's concerns. As a capable steward, he did have some insight.

Nodding slightly, Lin Ruhai slowly turned his head to look out the window, as if he could see the Great Copper Mountain in the distance, and slowly spoke,

"All we can confirm now is that Yangzhou City is in chaos, but we don't know what the Peak Master is doing now."

As he spoke, Lin Ruhai sighed softly.

"I'm just thinking now, if Yu'er finds out that I, as her father, planned this, how will I face her then?"

Uncle Lin was also heartbroken, but he still tried to persuade her.

"Master, you are not to blame for this!"

"As a high-ranking official, it is your duty to protect the region and share the country's worries. It can only be said that the head of the Li family has taken the wrong path."

"It would be great if he could listen to the master's good advice!"

"Ah! Yes!"

Lin Ruhai sighed lightly, and then Uncle Lin asked,

"Uncle Lin, how is the salt tax calculation going this year? When can we set off?"

Uncle Lin bowed and said,

"Please rest assured, sir. The salt tax was counted two hours ago and is sealed and stored in a warehouse at the dock, heavily guarded. We are ready to depart at any time. As per sir's instructions, we have issued an official document to transfer a thousand elite naval forces from Changzhou to escort the tax silver along the river to the capital and north."

"The navy will arrive outside Yangzhou city tomorrow morning!"

“Huh~~~!”

Hearing this, Lin Ruhai finally felt relieved and breathed a long sigh of relief.

Asked again,

"Is Yu'er's luggage packed?"

Lin Bo nodded and said,

"Don't worry, sir. Everything is ready. We can leave the city tomorrow morning to load the ship and set off!"

"it is good!"

Lin Ruhai nodded in satisfaction, paused, and then looked at Lin Bo and said,

"Tomorrow, you will take my warrant and mobilize five hundred salt workers and five speedboats from Yanwo. You will personally lead the team and escort them north until we reach Tianjin Port and return! Be careful not to let Yu'er know!"
