Dai Quan glanced at Jia Lian. Although he was knowledgeable and experienced, he could not recognize who the person in front of him was.
After all, an unknown little guy is not qualified to answer him.
However, he had an important mission here, so he swung the whisk in his hand and spoke in a hoarse voice.
"The daughter of Lin Ruhai, the Imperial Censor of Yangzhou's Salt Inspection Office, has come to receive the imperial decree!"
After hearing this, Jia Lian was stunned.
Even the people and travelers watching at the dock were shocked.
Most people didn't know Dai Quan, but they could tell that he was a eunuch in the palace.
I originally thought that the eunuchs from the palace appeared here, and maybe they were carrying out some important mission, just like the group of eunuchs and guards who transported things before.
But he never expected that he was here to convey the imperial decree to a daughter of an official family.
Many people were confused. How could a rich lady receive an order from the emperor?
Jia She, who was standing in the front row of the crowd, was suddenly startled.
He looked around and shrank back behind the crowd without leaving any trace.
He was secretly trembling in his heart, hoping that something might have happened to Lin Ruhai in Yangzhou, implicating his niece.
Otherwise, as Lin Ruhai's brother-in-law, could he escape?
Jia Lian was already shocked on the deck at this moment, and was at a loss for a moment.
On the second floor of the boat, Lin Daiyu was packing her clothes to go downstairs. When she suddenly heard these words, she was stunned for a moment.
I don't understand why the imperial edict was passed down to me.
At this moment of panic, Rong Mama beside Lin Daiyu's face darkened, took a deep breath, and said to Lin Daiyu,
"The young lady is still unmarried and it's not appropriate for her to appear in public. I'd better go out and take a look!"
Lin Daiyu pursed her lips and nodded.
"Then it's Aunt Rong!"
Immediately, Madam Rong walked out of the room. While passing through the corridor and going downstairs, she took the opportunity to give instructions to the four maids who were carrying grass leaves and flowers.
The four maids all took orders with serious expressions and left.
When Rong Mama arrived on the deck, the men rowing below the deck all held the oars tightly with both hands, ready to row away from the shore at any time.
A dozen other men had already pointed their Type 38 rifles out from the hidden holes in the cabin and were on standby.
When Rong Mama reached the deck, she saw Chunye kneeling beside the pillar where the cable was tied, nodding slightly to her, and she felt slightly relieved.
If there is an emergency, she will send a signal.
When Chunye cuts the rope, the strongman in the cabin will immediately drive the ship out of the port and head to the preset transfer point.
However, when Rong Mama saw the plump and white Dai Quan standing on the dock on the shore, followed by only a few young eunuchs and a dozen guards, and realized that the other party had no intention of killing her, her heart tightened slightly.
Judging from the situation, this group of people doesn't seem to be here to capture his wife.
Could it be...
Rong Mama didn't dare to think further, but after all, he was a figure at the level of the deputy head of Qingfeng Village.
She certainly wouldn't be as frightened as Jia Lian, who was lying on the deck at a loss as to what to do.
He took a deep breath, slowly walked to the edge of the deck, squatted down and bowed solemnly to Dai Quan who was standing three feet away from the shore.
"Sir, my daughter is still young and frail, and she is afraid of seeing people."
"Please understand, sir, and wait until my young lady enters the city before receiving the imperial decree."
Dai Quan frowned slightly when he heard this.
What is this word?
The emperor issued an edict, but for the first time he did not greet him immediately, but instead asked to wait before issuing the edict?
He was about to explode, but when he thought about the fact that he was here to show the emperor's grace,
In addition, he also understood the meaning of Rong Mama's words, so he smiled and said,
