Money can make the devil push the mill.

No matter how Confucianism, which has been in power for thousands of years, advocates governing the world with morality, ultimately, what is relying on to govern the world is money. In the past thousand years, no matter which dynasty is destroyed, it is ultimately due to financial problems.

Even if the Han Dynasty was considered to be the only one who died by force, the fundamental reason was that there was financial problems, which can be seen from Emperor Huan of Han's openly selling official positions and titles to make money.

Even such a huge dynasty is like this, and it can be divided into individuals, so it cannot escape the domination of money.

Even Confucius, who was respected by Confucianism as the saint of the ages, could not escape when he traveled around the countries.

Although there have been many arrogant people who would rather starve to death than eat food given by pity for thousands of years, and moral people who are still as honest as water in high positions, this is only a few, otherwise they would not have been written into books and passed down through the ages.

It is precisely because of the little thing that seems precious. If everyone can do this, it will obviously not be admired by others and will be passed down to future generations.

At this time, Kang Jinlong, who was carrying a thousand liang of votes, was the existence that could communicate with ghosts and gods.

After changing a hundred taels of tickets for silver, he was not enough to spread fifty taels, so he bribed a servant who was responsible for copying official documents and a white servant who was responsible for doing odd jobs from the Quanzhou Prefectural Office.

From these two people, he also found out the news he wanted.

Fang Ritu was indeed arrested. The Baima, who was bribed by him, was one of the parties involved who followed the captain to arrest people.

However, Fang Ritu was not in the government jail at this moment, and was taken away on the first day he was arrested.

The clerk who was responsible for copying official documents was the party responsible for handing over the documents at that time, so he knew that the person who brought Fang Ritu was from the Dongchang.

This news was undoubtedly very important to Kang Jinlong, but for him, the news that the free gift from the white servant was more important than these two news.

The actor who was caught with Fang Ritu that day was also a performer who was singing in Guangyuan Teahouse, but that actor didn't seem to be important, and the person from the East Factory did not take him away.

Kang Jinlong, who got news about Hua Linlang from Mu Yixing with Fang Ritu, instantly guessed that this actor was their target - Hua Linlang. Naturally, he finally knew why Fang Ritu appeared in Guangyuan Teahouse and was caught.

But Kang Jinlong knew in his heart that this was not the time to think about these things, nor was he complaining that Fang Ritu was arbitrarily and accidentally arrested. Now he had to think about what to do next.

After learning all the news, there were two very clear roads before him.

One, spending only more than a hundred taels of silver to redeem Hua Linlang from the Quanzhou Prefecture Prison, and immediately leave the already dangerous Quanzhou Prefecture, return to Yangzhou to complete the task.

In this way, not only can he complete the task smoothly, he can also swallow the remaining 800 taels of silver and make a fortune.

But in this case, Fang Ritu is equivalent to being sold by him.

The other one is to temporarily detain Hua Linlang after redeeming her, then take out the remaining 800 taels of silver, try every means to spend the money, rescue Fang Ritu from the people from the East Factory, and take Hua Linlang to escape from Quanzhou Prefecture and return to Yangzhou Prefecture.

This second road is not only dangerous, but also full of variables. The most troublesome thing is that after he throws out all the money, he may not be able to rescue Fang Ritu. Moreover, after he rescues Fang Ritu, the people in the East Factory will not be able to have no reaction at all. At that time, the people in the East Factory may even dare to make a move to lock down the city and search.

If they did not escape from Quanzhou Prefecture as soon as possible, they would probably be defeated here by themselves.

But if he didn't save Fang Ritu, then after he went back, he would be the only one left in the entire Dongjitian Seven Star Lord.

If it were normal, such an ending could not be bad. After all, after he was the only one left, no matter whether Qinglong could fill the gaps of the other six people in time, Qinglong would rely so much on him as an old man.

But he knew in his heart that if he successfully brought Hua Linlang back this time, after forcing the other party to teach them their disguise skills, or directly asked the other party to help everyone disguise successfully, he would lead his men alone to Yingtian City, which had already turned into a dragon and tiger den, to spy on the situation of Xinyuehu and find an opportunity to assassinate Xinyuehu.

If Qinglong fails to identify and select all the confidants of Xinyuehu among the disciples, then his trip to Yingtian City will be equivalent to coming to the door to die.

On the contrary, if Fang Ritu can be rescued this time, Fang Ritu will definitely be very grateful to him. In this way, as long as he joins Fang Ritu, he will have the capital to postpone this task.

Moreover, if Hua Linlang can be further cleverly trapped in Quanzhou Prefecture and cannot leave with them, even if the mission fails, Qinglong will not be able to punish him.

After all, he was trying to rescue Fang Ritu and had no clones. If Qinglong still punished him for this, it would inevitably lead to everyone being disloyal to him.

Kang Jinlong, who was nearly a thousand taels of silver, was worried that the document and Bai Yao would guess something and betray him. He did not dare to spend the night in the city, so he could only stay in the dilapidated temple outside the city for a night.

The bad environment and the fierce struggle between two thoughts in his mind left him sleepless all night.

Finally, when the sun poked its head out and sprinkled the light on the earth, Kang Jinlong, who was facing dark circles, finally made a final decision in his heart.

He is going to rescue Fang Ritu.

Compared to the more than 800 taels of silver, life is more important.

After all, if he took Hua Linlang back alone, he would have to take risks to Yingtian City in person. However, in this Quanzhou Prefecture City, if he wanted to save Fang Ritu, he would not have to take risks by himself. The nearly thousand taels of silver in his arms was enough to buy many experts from the world to help him complete all dangerous things. All he needed to do was to check Fang Ritu's situation as much as possible in advance, plan everything, and make a perfect plan.

However, Mu Yixing was shocked by the Jinyiwei. Most of the people in Quanzhou Prefecture, who had a shallow or deep relationship with Mu Yixing, had already fled from Quanzhou Prefecture. Although he had a lot of money in his hands, it seemed difficult to spread the money out.

Fortunately, he still needs time to investigate the situation of the Dongchang men in Quanzhou Prefecture, and then come up with and improve the rescue plan. As for finding people, it is not urgent.

...

I don’t know that because of Kang Jinlong’s decision, he escaped being escorted thousands of miles. I am afraid that I will be imprisoned for the rest of my life. Hua Linlang, who is rarely free, is bored at this time, responding to the interrogation of the head captain of the Quanzhou Prefecture Office.

Of course, it was not the turn of a small captain to interrogate a prisoner, and the prosecutor should come to interrogate. However, for a small actor like Hua Linlang, the prosecutor not only despised his status, but also felt that a small actor would not be able to exploit much wealth. Therefore, he handed over the task of interrogation to his subordinates.

However, after several days of interrogation, no abnormality was found. And after finding that the other party really couldn't even scrape out any oil and water, no one was willing to interrogate her.

Of course, there is not a lack of lust, but when they take off their pants and see the other party's treasure that is bigger than them, they immediately fled in panic.

Big Boss, I can’t afford to offend you, I can’t afford to offend you!

In this way, Hua Linlang became a useless existence.

Even worse than being useless, let alone being a promoter, even a few heads-in-chiefs don’t know that there is such a person in the prison.

Today, when the captain sent a prisoner into the cell, he accidentally saw him and decided to work harder in his heart to see if he could scrape the last drop of oil from the fly's hand. At the same time, he also found an excuse to throw the disgusting person who occupied a cell out.

Hua Linlang, who had long been familiar with the mentality of these soap officials, waited for the arrival of this day. After resisting for another two rounds, he said in a delicate way that he still had the rewards he had stored for the past half month at the shopkeeper of Guangyuan Teahouse.

I already knew that he was the headmaster of the boss, so I suppressed the disgust and released him, and ordered my two subordinates to take him to Guangyuan Teahouse to get money.

The shopkeeper of Guangyuan Teahouse did not refuse to admit his claim. The main reason was that a small actor didn't give much money to reward him for half a month. He couldn't make a mistake for offending a captain and two white servants for such a little money.

Since the money had been obtained, the two white servants left with satisfaction, and Hua Linlang, who had been imprisoned for nearly half a month, finally regained his freedom.

However, the scene that was caused by the incident before being arrested had already put him on the blacklist of the shopkeeper of Guangyuan Teahouse, so he could not continue to sing opera in Guangyuan Teahouse.

Of course, even if the shopkeeper can ignore his past grudges, Hua Linlang is not willing to stay here any longer.

Now that Quanzhou Prefecture City is full of fish and dragons, he is unwilling to stay here and cause trouble.

However, he had been in the prison for half a month, but he remembered clearly that in the past half month in the prison, he had cursed Bai Shier almost every day. Now that he has regained his freedom, he even swears in his heart that if he meets Bai Shier again in the future, he will definitely take revenge.

Even if he is the small flag officer of the Jinyiwei.

...

Hua Linlang's curse for more than ten days seemed to have really worked. Bai Shier, who was originally planning to leave Quanzhou Prefecture with Zhu Jinxuan, was blocked at the door by Hu Xiaolin who had been tracking them.

"[Nounnamed Novel www.wmxs.info] Cough cough, Brother Hu, long time no see!"

When he saw Hu Xiaolin again, Bai Shier's expression on his face was quite awkward. He knew in his heart that because of him, Hu Xiaolin had suffered too much in the past few months, and the pressure he was under was too great.

"Princess, please follow us back to the capital. You should also know in your heart how anxious and worried your Majesty will be in his heart since His Highness left the capital."

But Hu Xiaolin seemed to ignore Bai Shier, his eyes just stared at Zhu Jinxuan tightly, and spoke with a sincere face, almost begging.

Although he was ignored, Bai Shier was not angry or dissatisfied at all. He just stretched out his index finger and rubbed it under his nose to cover up his embarrassment.

Because he knew in his heart that Hu Xiaolin ignored him, which should be the most concerned about the two of them. On the contrary, if Hu Xiaolin really took care of him, then Hu Xiaolin, who committed the crime of luring and abducting the princess, would directly arrest him, take him back to the capital, and take him to the emperor for trial.

And he had no intention of answering Zhu Jinxuan.

It’s not that he is cowardly or cherishes himself, but that the only person involved, Zhu Jinxuan, can make the final decision on this matter.

After all, Zhu Jinxuan has not really married him and has become his family.

Moreover, even if he became a family, he was not qualified to make such an important decision for Zhu Jinxuan.

Therefore, if Zhu Jinxuan decided to follow Hu Xiaolin back to Beijing because she was worried about her royal brother, although he would feel sad, he would not stop him.

But in the same way, if Zhu Jinxuan wanted to continue to follow the decisions they had made in the Yang family restaurant in Qinxian Town and act according to the plan they had set at that time and did not want to return to the capital with Hu Xiaolin, then even if he and Hu Xiaolin had their previous relationship, even if he would become a wanted person for the entire court, he would still take Zhu Jinxuan away.

Unless he dies on the spot.

"Have you ordered the Dongchang man to hand over a letter to you and order you to send it back to the capital?"

Zhu Jinxuan's eyes did not dodge, and she also looked directly at Hu Xiaolin, and said in a soft but firm voice.

"In that letter, I have told the emperor's brother all my thoughts. When this matter is over, and after I catch the real murderer behind the suicide of the Yangzhou prefect, I will return to the capital to meet the emperor's brother."

Although he was very touched by what Hu Xiaolin said and couldn't help but worry about the emperor's brother, Zhu Jinxuan still felt firm in her heart after glimpsing Bai Shier with her eyes.

"So, now I will not return to the capital with you."

"Ahem, yes!"

Hearing Zhu Jinxuan's firm voice, Bai Shier couldn't help but smile on his face, but immediately, he felt that this smile seemed a little out of place, immediately pressed down the smile on his face, coughed again, cleared his throat, stood in front of Zhu Jinxuan, and blocked her behind him.

"Brother Hu, you have already heard what Xuan'er said. Since Xuan'er doesn't want to leave with you, I'm afraid you will be disappointed and back."

Even though he had already known Zhu Jinxuan's intention to talk to Bai Shier in his heart, and even though he knew that after several months of development, the relationship between Zhu Jinxuan and Bai Shier and others would inevitably develop, when he really heard such a close name from Bai Shier, Hu Xiaolin could no longer help but show an extremely shocked look on his face.

What made him feel even more chilled was Zhu Jinxuan's expression on his face after hearing the title blurted out from Bai Shier.

"Gudong!"

Hu Xiaolin couldn't help but wailed in his heart after swallowing a mouthful of saliva.
