Now that things are going on, it seems that I can only bite the bullet and continue to act: "No, it's not a river bandit! I just drank alcohol and didn't know the direction for a while. The little general must be discerning!"

Lu Qing chuckled, but refused to let go, and said: "Which river bandit is caught, can he admit his identity? You look like you are drunk now?"

After the voice fell, others responded: "Exactly!"

"I think even if they didn't think about taking action to snatch the property, they came to this ship to scout."

"That's right! If it's a river bandit, these people are not enough. But if you step on the spot, it makes sense."

Qin Zong listened and shut up.

At first, I thought I needed to speak out to help.Unexpectedly, other people spontaneously helped him complete the task.

After fanning the wind and lighting the fire, Lu Qing looked at the boat boss again and said, "You colluded with them—"

The boat boss once again clarified for himself: "Absolutely not!"

Lu Qing didn't believe it, and said, "Go to the government with me. Then, of course, someone will listen to your argument."

Hearing this, the boss of the boat turned pale.

He looked guilty, and in the eyes of the passengers, there was another layer of evidence.

And so it is.To put it bluntly, the boss of the boat didn't know the identities of those people in Prince Rui's residence.The reason why he disclosed the news of "a young boatman with many suitcases and a northern accent" to the people from Prince Rui's residence was purely because he took money from the other party.

Now that the matter came to light, although he was surprised that it was another person who came out of the room, he didn't have the time to think about the reason.

The boss of the boat still insisted: "They are all people who paid well to board the boat, how can I know... ah!"

At the end of the speech, it was the people from Prince Rui's Mansion who saw the crowd's attention turned to the boss of the boat, and realized that this was an excellent opportunity for his group to escape, so he suddenly pushed the people around him away and fled to the side of the boat!

The boss of the boat watched them jump over the boat, and rushed forward anxiously, almost jumping after him.Seeing this scene, the boat passengers were stunned, stunned, and finally, they looked at Qin Zong and Lu Qing together, and asked: "Little general, this righteous man, what should I do?"

Lu Qing also looked at Qin Zong.Qin Zong showed a contemplative look, and said, "Although they haven't been caught, I still remember their faces. Then, at the next port, I will disembark and contact the government. The arrest warrants will be issued to see where they can escape. !"

After a pause, without giving the boat passengers any room to react, he said: "By the way, everyone, go back and look for it. Have you lost anything. Besides," turning to the boat boss, with a half-smile, "Don't think about it, no one has lost anything." There is no more evidence to arrest you. Everyone has seen the situation just now. You should go to the government with me honestly and don’t play tricks."

The boss of the boat wants to cry but has no tears.If he met someone else, he still had the desire to be aggressive.But as soon as the words "General Zhenbei" came out, he softened his knees first.Secondly, with so many people watching, there is really nothing that can be done.

He sighed sadly.At the same time, the passengers on the boat who listened to Qin Zong's words were shocked, and immediately went back to their houses to inspect the valuables.

Qin Zong stood guard at the bow of the boat, looking at the boss of the boat and also guarding the river bandits for the others before returning.At this time, the people from Prince Rui's residence who had already swam to the shore felt nervous when they saw this.In any case, it was unexpected that Qin Zong's attitude had a more important meaning.

——Don't let them find out that Lu Qing has returned to the cabin he used to live in, and he has nowhere to go right now.

Finally at dawn, the next port has appeared in everyone's sight.In front of the boat passengers, Qin Zong and Lu Qing made a deal.One of them is responsible for escorting the boss of the boat to report to the officials, and the other is responsible for guarding the boat so that other boat passengers can arrive in the capital safely.

Listening to the conversation between the two, the passengers were all moved.

Hearing everyone's "high righteousness" praise, Lu Qing was smiling, not feeling guilty at all.Qin Zong coughed, turned his face, looked at the ashen-faced captain of the boat, and said: "Now you know that you have no face to face your elders? Okay, I see that you were wronged last night, and you don't want to take it seriously. After getting off the boat, you cover your face first. Even if other people see you entering the government office, they don't know that the person under the mask is you."

The boat boss was taken aback for a moment when he heard this, and then his heart jumped wildly.

This is a way.At the same time, he also thought of another possibility.

The captain of the boat swallowed, showing a flattering smile, and said, "What the little general said is true!" Turning his face away, he asked his crew to help him find something that could cover up his appearance.He also pointed out that with his attire, people who are familiar with the route can distinguish his identity at a glance.Can the little general hold his hand high and allow him to change his clothes too.

Qin Zong agreed, but asked him to change on the deck.

The boss of the boat said "naturally".This scene was still seen by the passengers on the boat, and a lot of "tsk tsk" sighed, saying that the little general is really kind.

Qin Zong didn't respond, but Lu Qing, seeing this scene, smiled slightly.

Sure enough, the boss of the boat behind changed his clothes on the deck.After all, this scene was unsightly, even the passengers who were still on the deck looked away.

The crew stood in front of the boss of the ship, and several figures swayed alternately.After a while, the boss of the boat came out.It was really wrapped tightly, with only a pair of eyes exposed from the whole body.

Seeing this, Qin Zong frowned intentionally, and said, "What are you doing?"

Probably because his mouth was blocked, the boss of the boat spoke in a low voice at this moment, and said: "As the little general ordered, cover your face."

Qin Zong looked at him very disapprovingly.Under his gaze, the boss of the boat seemed to be uneasy, his shoulders tightened slightly, and his body took a step back.

However, Qin Zong finally said: "That's all."

That's how he got people off the boat.Behind him, the ship set sail again.

Qin Zong made an agreement with Lu Qing that after sending the person away, he would try his best to catch up with the ship.But if he can't make it in time, please ask Lu Qing to help him deliver those boxes and cabinets to the Qin residence.

Lu Qing naturally agreed.He stood on the side of the boat, looking at the gradually shrinking pier from afar.In a flash from the corner of the eye, I saw a figure running past the edge of the cabin.

Lu Qing gave a low laugh.

Let's talk about Qin Zong.

After disembarking, he took people all the way into the city.

Behind him, the boss of the boat became more and more nervous, his eyes flickering.

Qin Zong glanced at him, and suddenly said, "Do you want to escape?"

The boss of the boat was shocked, stuttered, and hurriedly said: "No, no!"

Qin Zong chuckled, apparently distrusting his answer, and said, "How did he tell you? After you escape, will you settle down with your family?"

The boat boss was stunned.

Qin Zong looked ahead, and said without rushing, "I'll tell you the truth. On the boat ahead, that 'Lu Qing' is not a 'righteous man', but a felon on the run."

The pupils of the boat boss suddenly shrank.

He swallowed his saliva, his steps quickened suddenly, and he followed Qin Zong, asking, "Who is that person...and you?"

Qin Zong looked "too lazy to talk to you".The boss of the boat saw it, and quickly said: "Yes! You said that you are the young general of General Zhenbei's family."

Qin Zong said, "What about you?"

The boss of the ship—actually a crew member dressed like this after listening to the request—raised his hand to take off his mask, and said at the same time, "My name is Zhang Chongjiu, and this is my second year working on the ship."

In the middle of the action, Qin Zong said softly, "Don't pick it."

Zhang Chongjiu was taken aback, but obediently stopped.After thinking about it, he carefully pulled the mask back on, without asking why.

Qin Zong said: "The case Lu Qing committed is too big for this small town to handle. I'm going to the capital, do you know the way here?"

Zhang Chongjiu hurriedly said: "I know! I know!"

Qin Zong said: "You lead me the way. If you find the sheriff, you can dispatch troops to capture Lu Qing."

Zhang Chongjiu heard it in his ears, his eyes sparkled.

In his life, has he ever been so close to such a major event?Thinking that he could make a contribution in it, he immediately geared up and replied, "Naturally!"

Qin Zong listened, the corners of his lips raised for a moment, then pressed down again.

He and Zhang Chongjiu passed through this small town, bought two skinny horses, and rode away.

This scene was seen by the people of Prince Rui's residence who were chasing from behind, that is: after they left, Qin Zong got off the boat immediately.As if he still felt guilty, he covered the people beside him tightly!

Except for Jiao Qin, that person's identity is beyond his imagination!

The people from Prince Rui's residence followed closely and left the city.Walking to the official road, he noticed a change behind him.Qin Zong's eyes flickered, and he said, "Chongjiu, stop, let's find a place to hide. Lu Qing's men are chasing us, I'm afraid it's my story on the boat that makes them suspicious."

Zhang Chongjiu nodded immediately, and obediently followed Qin Zong's instructions.

He hadn't thought about it at all, if Lu Qing was really a "repeat criminal", how could he point out that "the boat boss colluded with the river bandits"?

At the same time, on the boat, Lu Qing closed the door and looked at the man standing in the corner.

He let out a long breath: forget it.Troubled, or sent to the West.

"In the past few days," Lu Qing asked, "how did you sleep?"

Jiao Qin saw him smiling and kindly, so she shouldn't feel pressured.But in fact, following Lu Qing's simple words, his tongue became dry and he was so nervous that he could hardly stand up. He replied, "Of course the little general sleeps on the bed, and I sleep on the floor."

"Oh." Lu Qing's smile quickly disappeared.However, from Jiao Qin's point of view, he is in a better mood now than before.

What a strange person.Jiao Qin secretly thought.
