Chapter 107 Going to Jiangnan

Lin Daiyu stopped, stood in the middle of the hall, and looked at Grandmother Jia.

He bowed politely, his eyes were cold.

"Grandma, I came to tell you that I will be returning to Yangzhou tomorrow"

"Hmm?" Grandmother Jia was startled.
"Ah? Go back to Yangzhou?" Her eyes flickered and her tone suddenly became gentle.

"Yu'er, how can I feel at ease if you go back to Yangzhou alone? How about this, I'll let Lian Ge'er take you back, and I can teach him to handle anything."

Lin Daiyu shook her head

"I'm not alone. My third brother will go to Yangzhou with me."

Jia Mu was shocked.
"What? He's going to Yangzhou too?" Then he looked Lin Daiyu up and down.
Yu'er can get Jia Hu, who doesn't like trouble, to go to Yangzhou. It seems that the relationship between Yu'er and Jia Hu is extraordinary.

Grandmother Jia's expression was a little uncertain. If Jia Hu was there, would it affect her plans?

No matter what, Jia Hu is just a little cruel and ruthless, and he definitely doesn’t understand the general affairs, so maybe there is a chance.

Thinking of this, Jia's mother showed a loving smile.
"Yu'er, let Lian go with you, otherwise I won't feel at ease."

Lin Daiyu frowned, and instinctively didn't want Jia Lian to follow her. Grandmother Jia saw what she meant and continued.
"Yu'er, there must be someone to do things along the way. Do you and Hu Ge'er understand this?"

Lin Daiyu was startled, it seemed to make sense.

"Okay then, thank you grandma, I'll go back and pack my things first." After saying that, he bowed and turned to walk outside.

The people in the hall looked at Lin Daiyu's back with complicated eyes.
This cousin said that she was seeking shelter in the Rongguo Mansion, but in fact she was completely taken care of by Jia Hu and had nothing to do with the Rongguo Mansion.

Mrs. Wang showed a mocking expression on her face. This unlucky star must have killed Lin Ruhai too.
Fortunately, she left Rongguo Mansion. Now she hopes that Lin Daiyu can kill Jia Hu as well.

There was a hint of greed in her eyes. Now that Lin Ruhai was dead, was there any way to get the Lin family's accumulated wealth?

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but glance at Grandmother Jia, and immediately saw the greed in Grandmother Jia's face as she looked at Lin Daiyu's back.

She sneered in her heart. She said, how could the old lady hold back from doing it?

He turned his eyes and glanced at Wang Xifeng opposite him.

Jia Hu sent Sanchun away and returned to his room alone, frowning.
There was a look of surprise and uncertainty on his face,
"What's going on? Why is there an extra memory? Whose is it?" He muttered to himself, very confused.

Just after he rescued Jia Yun's mother, a new scene suddenly popped up in his mind.
A river appeared, with a wooden tub floating on it, and a baby in it.
The strange thing was that he felt that the baby was himself.

Jia Hu sat on the chair, tapping the table lightly.

"Could it be the original owner's? Could it be that he is not a member of the Jia family, but an abandoned orphan?

Picked up by the Jia family?" He couldn't help but let his imagination run wild.

"Swish" he suddenly stood up and walked outside.

In Jia She's courtyard, Jia She was drinking with his maid in his arms, touching her all over, and the beauty was feeding him wine. He was very happy.
Suddenly, "bang", a servant broke open the door and fell to the ground.

Jia She was startled, and seeing the servant on the ground, he roared

"Are you looking for death? Get out."

The servant looked pale and said hurriedly
"Master, Master Huhu is here."

Jia She was confused for a moment, then his face changed drastically.
"What? Why is he here?" He stood up suddenly, and threw the maid beside him to the ground.
He has no time to be gentle with women now. He feels a little nervous. I hope I haven't offended him.

"Tap" Jia Hu had walked in, glanced around the room, and then looked at Jia She quietly.

When Jia She saw Jia Hu, he shuddered and swallowed.

"Mr. Amber, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Jia Hu looked at Jia She's frightened expression and asked directly:

"Let me ask you, was I really born with my second sister?"

Jia She was stunned and looked at Jia Hu blankly. What did it mean?
Isn't this something everyone knows? Why are you asking me?

Seeing Jia Hu's cold eyes, he was startled and nodded quickly.

"How could this be false? The midwife came out with two babies in her arms. Not only me, but also the old lady and the others saw it."

Jia Hu frowned and turned away. It seemed that these were not the original owner's memories. Whose were they? He was even more confused.

Jia She heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Jia Hu leave, but he couldn't help complaining in his heart.

"Are you sick? Why are you asking this question? You didn't come out with Yingchun.

Could it have jumped out of a stone? Damn, I was scared to death."

Soon, the news that Jia Hu and Lin Daiyu were leaving the capital for Yangzhou spread throughout the two governments.

Almost everyone was happy, even though Jia Hu hadn't killed anyone in the past few years.
But how could they forget his cruel appearance? They wished Jia Hu could go as far away as possible.

If Rongguo Mansion knew about it, it meant that all the powerful people in the capital knew about it. The reason why they didn't find Jia Hu in the past three years was that

Because they found that although Jia Hu was conferred the title of Earl, he had no real power.

The emperor and the emperor emeritus did not summon him, which means that he was not taken seriously.

As time went by, they almost forgot about this person.

When I heard that he was leaving the capital, I didn't take it to heart.

But someone took it seriously. In the eastern warm room of the imperial palace, Emperor Qianwen looked at Xia Shouzhong kneeling below.

"He's leaving the capital for Yangzhou? What's he going to do?"

Xia Shouzhong shook his head
“Your Majesty, this old servant doesn’t know, but he accompanied Miss Lin to Yangzhou.”

Emperor Qianwen narrowed his eyes

"Lin Ruhai's only daughter, could it be that Jia Hu really has fallen in love with her?
Oh, is it difficult for a hero to resist the temptation of a beautiful woman? " He murmured in a low voice.

"Your Majesty, it may be related to Lord Lin's serious illness." Xia Shouzhong reminded again.

Emperor Qianwen's eyes flashed

"If Jia Hu knew that his father-in-law was murdered, would he kill everyone?"

Xia Shouzhong's body trembled,

This. I think so."

"Haha, I think so too. Go and tell Lin Ruhai,

Let him tell Jia Hu that he was murdered. "Emperor Qianwen showed excitement in his eyes, and he seemed to see hope for resolving the problem in Jiangnan.

"Why don't you tell me yourself?" An indifferent voice sounded in the room.

Emperor Qianwen and Xia Shouzhong's faces changed drastically. Xia Shouzhong jumped up and ran in front of Emperor Qianwen.
"Protect the emperor, there is an assassin, someone come and protect him quickly." Xia Shouzhong shouted in panic.

"Crash!" More than a dozen imperial guards outside rushed in.

Jia Hu slowly appeared in the room, looking at Qian Wen indifferently, and gently touched his wrist. A green light flashed.
"Bang, bang, bang" more than a dozen imperial guards fell to the ground, with a bloody hole on their foreheads.

There was a small green snake in Jia Hu's hand. He gently stroked the snake's head and said calmly:
"I haven't killed anyone in a long time, why bother?"

"Plop. Jia.. Hu..." Xia Shouzhong sat down on the ground.

He looked at Jia Hu in horror, trembling all over. Was he here to kill the emperor again?
Emperor Qianwen's pupils shrank. Being stared at by Jia Hu, he felt a sense of crisis of death. If he was not careful, he might die today. It was not until he saw Jia Hu with his own eyes that he understood what a vicious person was.

But he was an emperor, and although he was afraid, he was able to keep his emotions under control.
"Ahem, you are Jia Hu. You are indeed young and promising, and you are very powerful.
No wonder the emperor thinks so highly of you." He coughed lightly and forced a smile.

Jia Hu glanced at Emperor Qianwen.
"Stop talking nonsense. I'm here to get something from you."

Emperor Qianwen was startled.
"Thing?" He breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that they were not here to kill him. He smiled and said

"Whatever you want, Lord Jia, just tell me. I will give you whatever I have."

Jia Hu's expression eased slightly, and he nodded.

"Give me an imperial decree granting marriage, and write my name and Lin Daiyu's name on it."

"Ah, that's it?" Emperor Qianwen widened his eyes. He had thought of countless possibilities.

I just didn't expect that he came to ask for the imperial decree to grant marriage.

Xia Shouzhong also looked at Jia Hu in a daze, then looked at the imperial guards lying on the ground.
He suddenly felt that the deaths of these imperial guards were somewhat unjust.

"What? No?" Jia Hu's face turned cold.

Emperor Qianwen said quickly
"These are all trivial matters. I will write them right away. Xia Shouzhong, grind the ink for me."

Xia Shouzhong quickly got up, looked at Jia Hu carefully, walked to the table, and began to grind the ink carefully, his hands shaking constantly.

Emperor Qianwen let out a breath, picked up the pen, and soon an imperial edict arrived in Jia Hu's hands.

Jia Hu lowered his head to take a look and thought, well, he was quite honest and didn't do anything tricky. After reading it, he took the imperial edict back.

Emperor Qianwen looked at Jia Hu solemnly, and when he saw that he had no intention of leaving, his heart sank and he fell silent.

Xia Shouzhong's legs were trembling, and he looked in horror at Jia Hu who was still standing there. I wonder if this gentleman really wanted to kill the king?

Jia Hu didn't pay attention to the expressions of the two people, but said lightly
"Tell me about Lin Ruhai's situation."

Emperor Qianwen was stunned, then heaved a sigh of relief, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and then he began to speak.

It was unknown how long it had been before Jia Hu got a satisfactory answer. His figure slowly faded and disappeared.

As he became more deeply integrated into the Six-Winged Golden Cicada, he could already use some of the cicada's magical powers with ease.

Emperor Qianwen and Xia Shouzhong breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Jia Hu disappear.
Emperor Qianwen's face was extremely gloomy. It was not pleasant to be threatened. He glanced at the imperial guards lying on the ground and said coldly:

"There is no waste, Xia Shouzhong, clean them up."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Xia Shouzhong came back to his senses and said quickly.

Emperor Qianwen's eyes flickered. He couldn't go on like this.

Judging from this man's personality, it is difficult to win him over, so he can only be eliminated. Perhaps this time in Jiangnan is the chance to get rid of him.

Thinking of this, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

The next day, a horse-drawn carriage slowly approached the dock in the capital, with Jia Lian riding a horse next to it.

Jia Hu lifted the curtain, got off the carriage, looked at the huge official ship in front of him, and nodded with satisfaction.

When Jia Lian saw Jia Hu, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. He really didn't want to go, especially with this vicious man.
Thinking of the old lady and Mrs. Wang's instructions, he felt a little nervous.
I don’t know where these two people got such great confidence that they could take away the Lin family’s property.

"My Lord, let's get on the boat." Jia Lian dismounted from his horse, walked up to Jia Hu, and said with a flattering smile.

Jia Hu glanced at Jia Lian.
"Yes." Then he helped Lin Daiyu out of the carriage.

The group boarded the boat. Jia Hu was alone, and Lin Daiyu brought her two maids, Zijuan and Xueyan.

Jia Lian also only brought a servant, so there were not many people.

Jia Lian was still very useful. He made some arrangements on the boat and booked three rooms on the second floor, as if he was trying to please Jia Hu.

After Jia Hu sent Lin Daiyu back to his room, he came to the bow of the ship alone and looked at the capital city in the distance.

Jia Lian came to Jia Hu's side without knowing when.

"Master, why don't you go and have a rest?" Jia Lian said with a smile.

Jia Hu turned and looked at Jia Lian.

"Wait for you."

"Ah!" Jia Lian was stunned.
"What are you waiting for me to do?"

Jia Hu looked at Jia Lian with a half-smile.
"I'm just telling you that Lin Ruhai won't die, and don't try to take the Lin family's property, or I'm afraid you'll lose your life."

Jia Lian's face turned pale and he stammered

"You--you know everything. It has nothing to do with me. It's the old lady and the second wife." He explained hurriedly.

Jia Hu waved his hand and stopped looking at him.
"I know what's going on without you telling me. If you want to live, do your job well.

Don’t think about other things, understand?”

"Understand, sir, I understand.

In fact, with you here, it would be unnecessary for me to go." Jia Lian breathed a sigh of relief and said quickly.

Jia Hu did not say anything else. Jia Lian looked at Jia Hu cautiously and quietly retreated.
He didn't feel relieved until he returned to his room. He said with a grim expression:

"I knew it wasn't an easy job. Did you really think that person was easy to fool? Humph, he already knew it. Why am I so unlucky?"

The big ship slowly left the shore and went downstream at a very fast speed. The closer it got to Yangzhou,

The more worried Lin Daiyu looked, the more Jia Hu had to comfort her in her room.

That night, the sky was bright and the weather looked good. Everyone on the boat relaxed.
Many people appeared on the deck, enjoying the night breeze, making it seem quite lively.

Jia Hu and Lin Daiyu were also in Class A. After much effort, he persuaded Lin Daiyu to go out for a walk.

"Third brother, it will take a few days to get to Yangzhou."

Jia Hu was somewhat helpless
"Sister Lin, you've asked me so many times. It's almost here. It'll be here in two days."

Lin Daiyu sighed and leaned against Jia Hu.

"Third brother, I'm still worried about my father. He may not live long enough for me to return." When he said this, his eyes turned slightly red and his voice was a little choked.

Jia Hu shook his head and was about to say something to comfort her.

Suddenly he raised his head and looked at the sea. A golden light flashed in his eyes and he frowned.

"Boom." The sky was covered with dark clouds in the blink of an eye, and lightning flashed through the clouds, as if a storm was coming.

"It's thundering and it's going to rain. Go back quickly."

"What bad luck! It was fine just now, why is there thunder?"

The people on the deck complained and went into the cabin. The ship began to shake and waves appeared on the river.

Jia Hu narrowed his eyes. This was not a storm. He reached out and took Lin Daiyu's hand.
"Come on, Sister Lin, I'll take you back to your room first."

Lin Daiyu nodded slightly and obediently went back to the house with Jia Hu.
