Chapter 41 She Can't Fly With Wings
The day seemed extremely long.

Cheng Xiao stayed in the study for the whole afternoon, not at peace for a moment.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, he walked out the door: "Is it time for the girl to leave?"

When the news of Cheng Mei's departure reached Changying, she was listening to the news from Zhou Liang who had been summoned back.

"The Zhenhai gang's boat docks tonight...

"No one from their main rudder went out and returned to the camp today, a total of seven or eight carriages entered the rudder, and secret sentries were set up every half a mile along the way to the pier!

"Whether this matter has anything to do with Cheng Xiao or not, the official bank will definitely be transported to the pier tonight!"

"Since you're so sure, then don't relax at all!" Changying carried the brochure drawn in the past few days on her body.

He said again: "After nightfall, immediately sneak in to see if there is a silver box on the carriage. Once you are sure, go back to Nankangwei and report to General Tan, asking him to send troops for reinforcements!"

No matter where the money came from, as long as the money the Zhenhai Gang wanted to quietly transport to the pier was indeed official money, they would definitely not return empty-handed tonight!

Zhou Liang walked out the door neatly.

Changying beckoned Zixiang to set off with a sword, and when she got to the door, she turned around, walked to the table, took a piece of paper and wrote a few lines, kneaded it into a ball and handed it to her: "Give it to Du Jian first!"

……

Facing Xie Peng's ridicule, Du Jian didn't want to answer, but he didn't know how to answer.

On the one hand, from the standpoint of a normal person, Shen Changying's indirect killing of Zhongliang of the country and his ungrateful behavior are absolutely contemptible.

On the one hand, he thought that she might be Shen Linlang who had taken care of him for half a month and accompanied her through the most difficult days——

As a person who has endured her kindness, he actually has no right to despise her.

But because it is currently impossible to know whether Shen Changying is Shen Linlang, it is really difficult to describe his current mood.

Cheng Xiao didn't go out in the afternoon, so naturally he didn't go out either.

But Cheng Mei was about to go out after dark, so he couldn't help but put down the bowl and chopsticks when he was just about to have dinner.

Cheng's family didn't have any family in Changxing, Cheng Xiao made a lot of money and had big goals, so he didn't dare to buy land in Jiangnan blatantly.So which Zhuangzi did Cheng Mei go to?
As soon as he got up and went to the door, a small ball of paper slapped into his job bowl!
Picking it up and looking at it, his eyes suddenly froze...

The sky is still dark in this season, and the twilight has already enveloped the earth when the smoke is smoldering along the way.

Cheng Mei's carriage walked westward after leaving the gate of the city, followed by two guards.

After following for a while, Changying slowed down, and finally stopped at a road section five miles away from the city gate.

"What's wrong?" Zixiang asked.

"This section of the road is important, be careful." She pulled off her scarf and winked at her.

If they want to go to Zhuangzili, Cheng Mei must at least have Du Jian or Yang Chan leading a team to accompany them. Even if they don't come in person, there should never be only two people.

And if she was really just doing something for Cheng Xiao, then at least she would be escorted by the man in black who waited for Cheng Xiao to do what he wanted that night.

How could it be normal to go out of the city gate and have no one to protect him?

Cheng Xiao made it clear that he wanted to lure her into the bait with Cheng Mei, who had clashed with her before!
Hearing what she said, Zi Xiang was secretly heartbroken.

At this time, from the corner of the eye, I caught a glimpse of a cold light, shooting towards Changying's heart like a meteor, she hurriedly pulled her, "Get out of the way!"

Chang Ying had already noticed when the murderous intent was about to rise, and when Zi Xiang dragged her to hide aside, she took advantage of the opportunity to step on the trunk and fall onto the tree!

But before they were allowed to stand still, there were already countless hidden arrows flying towards them from all directions, and there was only rustling in their ears, which was endless!
"I'll cover you, you go to hijack the car, and pull over with people and cars! Make sure to catch Cheng Mei!" Changying tightly grasped Zixiang's wrist, looking at the carriageway that was gradually slowing down in the distance.

Zixiang acted according to her words, under the cover of Changying, she narrowly avoided all the incoming arrows and approached the carriage.

Cheng Meizao sat in the carriage with her chest in her hands and did not dare to move a single centimeter, she suddenly felt the body of the carriage swaying, and then there was a coquettish sound, and she screamed again and again in fright!
Suddenly someone rushed in, put a long sword on her neck, then pulled her away, blocked her and dragged her out!
"What are you doing?" She could barely speak.

Zi Xiang's subordinates worked hard, and her usually sweet voice became hoarse at this moment: "If you talk too much, I will chop you up!"

Cheng Mei's complexion was snow-white, but she didn't dare to speak anymore.

Zixiang dragged her with one hand and drove the carriage to Changying's side with the other. Changying flew up, and then drove the carriage straight to the city gate!

There was constant puffing and puffing arrows from behind the carriage, and the two of them lay on the ground against the screaming Cheng Mei, completely allowing the carriage to gallop on its own.

Fortunately, the horse knew the way, turned around and headed towards the city gate. Although there were constant neighing along the way, it did not go astray.

"You drive to Nankangwei immediately, ask to see General Tan, and tell him that a large amount of government money has been found in the Zhenhai Gang! During the investigation, I encountered Cheng Xiao who sent a killer to kill him, and his daughter Cheng Mei is the witness! Please hurry up! Send reinforcements!"

When they arrived at the gate of the city, Changying seized the time to give Zixiang instructions, then gave Cheng Mei a hard look, and shot out of the carriage like an arrow just in time!

Zixiang couldn't shout, so he gritted his teeth and reined in the horse and ran towards Huzhou!

Changying stood up and down in the shadow of swords, lights and swords, and when she was going all out, someone flew in and rushed in. When she arrived in front of her, she deflected several long arrows, and then wrapped her in her arms with one hand, and stepped in front of her. The head broke out of the encirclement...

The lights in Zhizhou Mansion had been half-extinguished, Cheng Xiao stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, listening to the servant's report facing the flowers and trees under the moon.

"Half an hour ago, Shen Changying and her maid followed the girl's carriage out of the city, and they just received the news that they were surrounded by killers two quarters of an hour ago.

"There were as many as 30 people sent there, and they were all experienced killers. This time, Shen Changying will definitely be unable to fly!"

Accompanied by the servant's sinister smile, the lantern in the corridor also shook.

Cheng Xiao let out a breath after a while, and looked at the sky.

He knew that Shen Changying was a military officer with a rank, and killing her would violate the court's laws, but he couldn't control that much anymore, who would let her persuade her repeatedly?
Since even revealing her background can't repel her, he has no choice but to let her "die" at the hands of "bandits".

She left the city at night, and the killer was nowhere to be found. In the wild where bandits are rampant, why would it be strange to kill one or two women?

He closed his eyes, opened them again, and asked, "Where's the pier?"

"The arrangement is ready." The servant stepped forward, "You can set sail right now."

He nodded, it was Xu time, and there were still two hours left in ion time.Shen Changying died, and his belongings were taken away. When the time comes, he will be able to work as an official in a stable manner.
