After being reborn, she became the richest man without being a queen

Chapter 19
Did Xiao Qiyue really run away?
Not really.

Shen Qingling made complete preparations in advance, if Xiao Qiyue slipped away like this, wouldn't she be ashamed of the battles she fought against Xiao Qiyue in her previous life?It's just that even though he was caught, Yi Feng had to beat him again.

Yi Feng was able to get along under Mo Rulan's hands like a fish in water, Mo Rulan definitely knew him as a human being, so Shen Qingling didn't think about going over to take over as his substitute, but it had to be clear to Yi Feng that he couldn't touch anything.

Another point is that Mo Rulan cannot die.

After Mo Rulan was killed in the previous life, many water bandit leaders appeared overnight on the Bianhe River. At that time, Shen Qingling heard Li Yu discuss this matter with his military advisers, saying that the forces behind these water bandit leaders were a bit weird.

After contacting back and forth now, it is hard to guarantee that it was not the Khitan who secretly supported other puppets after killing Mo Rulan's mouth, and wanted to control the lifeline of Li Chao's river.

Yi Feng kowtowed his head twice, and begged for mercy: "Mrs. Shen, please forgive me. The younger one is because lard has deceived his heart, so he will do such a rebellious and unscrupulous thing. I beg you to forgive the younger one once, and the younger one will never dare to overstep." .”

Ping Niang saw him kowtow so neatly, she became even more wary.

"Nothing." Shen Qingling pushed aside Pingniang and Uncle Fu, raised her skirt and walked up to Yi Feng, then said softly: "There are quite a few people on this boat, if it wasn't for Brother Feng's help, I wouldn't be able to do this by myself. Feng Brother's move... really upset me, let's get up first and then talk."

Her fingers were cold, and when they touched the back of Yi Feng's hand, Yi Feng was so frightened that his whole body trembled, and beads of sweat rolled down from the corners of his forehead.

Yi Feng hastily withdrew his hands, stretched out his sleeves to wipe the sweat off his face, and replied humbly: "Ms. Shen is the one who gave the right advice, and the younger ones dare not take the credit."

Xu was to show his hospitality, Yi Feng licked the corner of his lips, and asked eagerly: "I just don't know what else Mrs. Shen is going to do? It's not a problem for this group of people to just lie down like this, but everyone who is Shen According to the order of the lady, the little one must do his best."

The coolies delivered to your door are not in vain.

Shen Qingling turned her eyes, smiled at him, and said: "Brother Feng is indeed a smart person, so I will have Brother Feng search for me. I suspect that among these people, there is Xiao Qiyue's lackey."

"Who is Xiao Qiyue?"

"Second lady—"

Pingniang and Uncle Fu who were next to him spoke out at the same time.

Liu Xiuwen and Shao Ying didn't dare to do anything else, they just stood in the aisle, looking at Shen Qingling probingly, as if they wanted to see something famous from Shen Qingling's face.

"Don't be idle, both of you, let's help search." Shen Qingling looked back at Liu Xiuwen calmly, and said, "There are Khitan spies on this boat, and its leader is still hiding. It is also a good thing for the country and the people to wipe out her lackeys before landing."

Seeing Shen Qingling displaying the righteousness of his family and country, how could Yi Feng dare to be perfunctory?He hurriedly responded, turned his head to greet the boatman in the corridor, and led them to strip clothes in the dining hall together.

Dozens of shipmates were called into the mess hall.

"The Khitan people have sun lines on their waists, even if the Han people convert, they will make up after they are borrowed." Shen Qingling picked the people around her as an example, she pointed to the position on the back of the waist of the person in front of her, He continued: "For those who can be taken under Xiao Qiyue's command, there is a painting on the waist, and a sun pattern must be drawn."

Seeing Xiao Qiyue peeling her skin earlier, Shen Qingling felt disgusted, so she couldn't help but delve into the meaning of what she did.

Of course, killing chickens to scare monkeys is one aspect, but it would be too ostentatious to peel off a whole piece of skin. After all, this is Boss Mo's boat on the border of the Central Plains, and it is also the most difficult to mess with on the water.

Then Shen Qingling thought of tattoos.

The Khitan people are fond of ghosts and value the sun. It is said that in the tooth tent on the grassland to the north, the Khitan king will face the east to pay respects to the sun every new month, and the people also respect the east and regard the sun worship as a top priority.

If the man surnamed Wu had tattoos on his body, then Xiao Qiyue's deliberate skinning would provide another layer of reasonable explanation.After the body was skinned and discarded, even if the body went down the river and was accidentally picked up by others, it would not be followed to find Khitan.

"Second lady." Yingxiu saw that Yi Feng's back was facing her, she hurriedly walked to Shen Qingling's side lightly, raised her hand to cover her mouth, and said in a low voice: "The number is wrong."

Mo Rulan didn't know how many guys were on board, Shen Qingling couldn't get an accurate answer from her, so she sent Yingxiu to sneak into the hut where the boat guys rested to inquire.

The huts are all rows of bunks, but the bedding is separated.It's autumn and winter at the moment, and one person and one set of bedding can afford a good night's sleep. Mo Rulan will not despise the people under him for such trivial matters, so as long as he counts according to the bedding, he can count how many boatmen there are.

Shen Qingling lowered her head to look at Yingxiu's hands covered in the armholes.

She made a comparison of three.

In other words, there are at least three boatmen who have something to do with Xiao Qiyue.Otherwise, Yi Feng had assembled the boat crew in the name of Mo Rulan, and the boat crew could not be absent. Xiao Qiyue must have discovered the drug in the meal and promptly notified the person who responded to her.

It was already late at night, and there was only the sound of rustling clothes being pulled in the dining hall. The front door was open, and occasionally a few gusts of cold river wind would blow in, bringing in a feeling of shivering.

While everyone was busy, there were hurried footsteps approaching in the corridor.

It's Shao Cong.

I saw him stepping through the door with a sword in his hand. He was about to speak, but after sweeping his eyes around, he landed on Yi Feng and held back.

Shen Qingling joked a little amusedly: "This sweaty man, did he meet a ghost?"

Shao Cong glared at her, then hooked his hand at her.

However, Shao Ying walked to Shao Cong's side lightly first, and as soon as his elder brother's posture was swayed, Shao Cong backed away a few steps timidly, muttering some vague words in his mouth.

"How could you let Er Niangzi do such a dangerous thing?" Shao Ying was furious.

For Shaoying, Shen Qingling is the master and the one who pays. Shaoying has no right to comment on what she wants to do, at most she can give some personal suggestions.Shao Cong was different, this reckless younger brother was always out of tune, of course Shaoying pointed at him and blamed him, she just hoped that he would be more considerate and think twice before doing things next time.

"Brother——" Shao Cong elongated his tone, slapped Shao Ying aggrievedly, and said in a low voice, "It's all Second Lady Shen's idea. huh? You forgot yourself."

After following Shen Qingling for less than a day, he has learned to be stubborn.

Shaoying sullenly twisted Shao Cong's ears, and said in a deep voice: "I mean to let you listen to Mrs. Shen's words, but it is about Khitan people, and they are extremely dangerous Khitan people. How can you take Shen Erniang with you?" The madam? What if Second Lady Shen is kidnapped by the Khitan man, how do you and I deal with each other?"
