"Zhu Yan, are you hiding something from me?"
The teenager's body shrank slightly, then he lowered his head and shook it.
"Zhu Yan, listen carefully. Although we're not in Jin State, and I'm no longer the Lin Mengya I used to be, you can tell me no matter what happens. In this place, you and I are the closest family. You can completely rely on me without any psychological burden. No matter what you hear or see, remember, you can only trust me, and no one else. Understand? "
She saw something wavering in Zhu Yan's eyes.
However, what made her feel a little disappointed was that Zhu Yan did not choose to be honest with her. Instead, he chose to hide these things.
"I know, I understand."
She wanted to say more, but Zhu Yan's obvious refusal made her stop.
"That's good. This is the map to Ye City. Oh yes, and your household registration certificate."
Money could make the world go round. Moreover, Gong Si had a lot of connections here, so these things were almost done quietly.
Moreover, Lin Mengya also told Gong Si to be more careful, so that no one would suspect the Gong family.
However, this matter was completely overthinking. Because there were many slaves here, if someone wanted to give the slaves a legal identity, then they would find these people to secretly operate.
Over time, the underground service here was forced to be perfected.
Even they themselves did not know where the fake identity came from, and how it would be used.
To them, these were nothing more than shining silver.
Using this loophole, they solved a lot of urgent problems.
"Okay, will you come back?"
Zhu Yan's eyes were full of desire.
She knew how it felt to be in a foreign country, but the only family member was far away.
In fact, how could she bear to do so?
Only when one wandered alone in the outside world would one realize how important everything in the past was to oneself.
"I also have my own things to do, and I have to solve all of this thoroughly. Otherwise, I can escape, but one day, my descendants will have nowhere to run. Zhu Yan, thank you. Although I know it's a little inappropriate to say this, I'm still very happy to meet you here. "
The corners of her mouth curled up, revealing a bright smile.
Many years later, Zhu Yan would never forget that smile.
He was tortured and left to wander in a foreign country, trapped in darkness.
However, this smile was like sunlight that shone into his heart, preventing him from being completely devoured by the darkness.
It seemed to be longing, almost greedy.
Zhu Yan engraved her smile in his mind, and it became the most solid fortress in his heart.
No matter what he faced in the future, he would be fearless.
"I … I'm very happy too."
As soon as the words left his mouth, Zhu Yan regretted them.
He clenched his teeth so hard that they almost broke, but he couldn't take them back.
"Little fellow, you're really cute. Come to me when you're free in the future. Moyan also came with me. Will Xiao Bai and Xiaohu forget him? "
She resisted the urge to pinch Zhu Yan's face. It was probably because she had given birth to a child. She always had a maternal fondness for these underage children.
However, whether it was a boy or a girl, this kind of innocence was always the most touching.
"They won't forget. Although they grow fast, they have a good memory."
Zhu Yan's face was full of unconcealable pride when it came to his little friends who had gone through life and death with him.
"Well, that's true. I think they seem to be closer to me."
As soon as she said that, the little fellow immediately glared at her angrily.
Haha, he was angry again. Now, she probably understood the fun that Gong Wu had just had.
They had many people, so they were not in such a hurry.
Moreover, there were many businessmen along the way. Some of them returned with a full load, while others lost all their money.
But that was the way to do business. How could there be a business that was guaranteed to make a profit without losing money?
They were pulling a few carriages, and all of them were present, so naturally, some people regarded them as traveling businessmen.
Third brother was steady, and Fifth brother was lively and forthright.
In this way, they secretly collected a lot of information.
And these news would eventually reach Lin Mengya's ears.
"You mean, there's no one guarding the foot of Mount Yanxia?"
Sitting in the carriage, Lin Mengya knew that she was too conspicuous, so she would not get out of the carriage unless it was necessary.
Moreover, there was a considerate Zhu Yan beside her.
He also knew how to protect her, so that although there were many people passing by, no one could see her sitting in the carriage.
"Yes, just now we met a boss who delivered mountain goods into the city. He almost went to the farmers' houses to collect mountain goods every day. So, he knew the situation very well. "
Gong Wu lowered his voice and said.
"Why is this so? I remember that the governor of Golden Warehouse City seems to be from the Xu Family, right? "
Seeing Gong Wu nodding, Lin Mengya was even more confused than before.
"These slaves seem to be transported by the Rong Family's fleet. After running away like this, the Rong Family must pay a sum of money, right? "
"Of course, if the goods are handed over to the owner, this matter will have nothing to do with the Rong Family at all. But the slaves ran away in their warehouse. I'm afraid they have to pay. "
Gong Wu's words seemed to make Lin Mengya understand something.
"Do you know what exactly happened to the Rong Family?"
Gong Wu scratched his head. It was useless to ask him about this matter.
"You also know that these things will not be publicized by the aristocratic families. If it were before, maybe we could get some information. Now, except for the An Family, all the aristocratic families have basically cut off contact with us. But I heard before that it seems that there is a big problem with the Rong Family. As for the specific details, everyone is just spreading rumors, so it can't be regarded as true. "
If he didn't mention it, she would have almost forgotten.
Originally, the Gong Family and the An Family could be regarded as inseparable from each other.
But this time, the An Family randomly sent a few people here.
And these people did not even say hello, and it was said that as soon as the auction was over, they ran away dejectedly.
Of course, they were not helping. At most, they came to watch the fun and inquire about the news.
Putting aside the matter of the An Family, the Rong Family … seemed to be in a bad situation.
Many things, like beads, were slowly connected by Lin Mengya.
Judging from the previous situation, the Rong Family was in big trouble.
Although others did not know, as his partners, the Xu Family should be clear about it.
Judging from Xu Yanqing's attitude, he did not regard Rong Luyi as an equal partner at all. In some ways, this was a very good opportunity for the Xu Family.
In the auction house, if the Gong Family took the opportunity to make trouble, the Rong Family, as the organizer and the auctioneer, would be the first to bear the responsibility.
Then, once the Rong Family and the Gong Family fought, and the Rong Family unfortunately collapsed, the Xu Family could take the opportunity to annex the business that the two families had before.
However, the escape of the slaves was a sudden occurrence …
That was not right!
The escape of the slaves was unexpected, but someone deliberately arranged for her to go to the warehouse to ransom Zhu Yan.
The warehouse belonged to the Rong Family. If anything happened to her there, the Gong Family would make the Rong Family responsible at all costs!
Thinking of this, Lin Mengya's face was already gloomy.
"Little sister, what do you think of?"
Lin Mengya raised her head and looked at Gong Wu. Suddenly, a faint smile appeared on her face.
"It turns out that we were all set up by the Xu Family."
Zhu Yan, who was beside her, suddenly trembled.
It was a small movement, but Lin Mengya noticed it.
Sure enough, it was the Xu Family.
From the beginning, the whole plot was against the Gong Family and the Rong Family.
That was why Zhu Yan was so resistant to the Gong Family.
"You mean the Xu Family?"
Gong Wu did not know the whole process, but he could see from Lin Mengya's expression that she was in a very bad mood.
Although he was her brother, he had to be careful with his words.
"Yes, it's the Xu Family. Brother Wu, do you remember how the Xu Family behaved when the Xu Family and the Rong Family came to interrogate you that night? "
How could Gong Wu easily forget what happened that day?
He sneered and said.
"The old dog of the Xu Family deliberately pretended to be an elder, but every word and sentence was directed at us."
"That's right!" Lin Mengya suddenly relaxed and said softly.
"Rong Luyi is a cautious person. From the little tricks he played before, he gave us face on the surface, but secretly, he made the Yu Clan hate us even more. From this, we know that there's nothing wrong with the way he does things, at least on the surface. Since that's the case, how could he blame the Gong Family under such circumstances? Unless, at least, there was someone he could trust at that time who told him that it was related to me. And he instigated him to take down the Gong Family, and the Rong Family's crisis would be solved. "
Gong Wu and Zhu Yan were stunned, but what she said was very clear, and there was nothing they did not understand.
"So you mean that this person is Xu Yanqing of the Xu Family?"
Lin Mengya nodded and looked at Gong Wu, who asked the question.
"Apart from him, who else would know the cause of the Rong Family's crisis better? The Xu Family and the Rong Family are partners. In a sense, they should share the glory and the loss of the Rong Family. So, if you were Rong Luyi, in this case, would you believe what your partner said or not? "
Gong Wu thought for a moment, but still nodded hesitantly.
