Buying a ticket was very smooth, as long as he could afford the money, there was no need to queue up at all, and Gu Zhirong easily bought two tickets for the first-class cabin.

In fact, passenger ships in this era were also divided into three classes: first class, middle class, and lower class. The first class cabin has a single room, the environment is relatively comfortable, the scenery of the river is unobstructed, and it is very quiet, not disturbed by the outside world. If she could afford the money, the shipwreck would bring the food needed by the guests to the room, without having to go to the hall and huddle with the people of all religions to eat.

In the final analysis, Gu Zhirong deliberately brought the young master to the passenger ship, and there were still some purposes.

In the past few days, she has been thinking about the disposal of the hidden treasures in the deep mountains in the miasma forest, she knows that she has a great responsibility, and she also knows the power of that batch of materials, money can recruit troops to strengthen the army, and if the new martial arts are entrusted to non-people, it will definitely be a catastrophe for the Jokhang Kingdom.

After thinking about it, she thought of the best candidate for now, and that was the crown prince.

If it is entrusted to someone else, no matter which one it is, it will inevitably be accused of "rebellion", but entrusting it to the prince is different.

The crown prince is the rightful heir to the throne, and if he entrusts it to the prince, not only will there be no suspicion of rebellion, but it will also strengthen the power of the prince to resist those who really intend to rebel. This is good for the people of the world to avoid the misery of life, and for the national fortune of the Jokhang Kingdom, it is good to avoid twists and turns.

It's just that when he thinks of the arrogant and a little naïve prince, Gu Zhirong feels a headache.

From the group of heroes to the racecourse, the prince gave her only one impression. That's "childishness". He was holding his prince's shelf all the time, playing with the child's temper all the time, and the cynicism that obviously emanated from his body. made her think for a while that those who supported him were all funny.

Therefore, Gu Zhirong did not believe all the rumors that said how the prince was hidden and how powerful he was. At the very least, she can't tell the resolute prince that people are rumored to be. Connected to the childish and reckless prince she had seen.

Therefore, she asked the young master of Baojian Hall to come out, just to ask for clarification. What kind of person is the prince?

From the last Jiangzhou bandit incident, she had clearly seen that this young master of Baojian Hall was not small, although he looked very young. But even a person as prestigious as General Kiri bowed down to him. He was even a little afraid of him. Therefore, she deduced that there must be a deep relationship between the young master of the Baojian Hall and the crown prince. Or a distant relative of the prince, or the prince's companion or playmate when he was a child, because only this kind of person who has the prince's trust will become an important minister in front of the prince, and the prince will let them exercise power instead of him out of trust in them. If there is not enough trust. The indifferent prince wouldn't do that.

In this way, these people who have been by the prince's side all the year round. You must know the prince's personality very well.

So, at lunchtime, Gu Zhirong specially invited the young master to dine in the room. Naturally, the meal was delivered by the guys in the boat, and there was no delay at all, and in such a cold weather in Jiangzhou, the meal was still steaming.

The wine was prepared by her a long time ago, the authentic Shaoxing "daughter red". Of course, there has to be something added to this, otherwise, how can this mysterious young master of the Treasure Hall be able to spit out the truth after drinking?

She added "fairy drunk", as long as this medicine is added to the wine, not only is it colorless and tasteless, it is impossible to detect, and the wine with this medicine is added, even the gods will inevitably get drunk when they drink it, how powerful do you say?

Since it is said that it is a lunch, you have to drink with others, let others drink, but you don't drink yourself, which is a bit unreasonable, and it is easy for people to see the flaws. So, Gu Zhirong quietly took the antidote before the young master came, in this way, if the young master was drunk, she would not be drunk. If not, if the young master is not drunk, but he is drunk, who is counting whom?

The young master came as promised, but in fact, his room was just next door to Gu Zhirong. His arrival still made Zhirong's eyes light up.

I'm used to seeing his upright posture, but every time I see it, I can't help but feel "Yushu Linfeng", perhaps, he is too tall, right?

When he entered the house, he took off his mink cloak, and wore only a white jade robe embroidered with light blue bluegrass on the cuffs and placket, and although the mask with a silver luster covered most of his face, the remaining face that was not covered had a clear and perfect arc, and it was still thrillingly beautiful.

Gu Zhirong had an illusion for a moment, feeling that he seemed to have seen such a wheel corridor somewhere, but after taking a closer look, he couldn't help but laugh at his own heart.

She had once heard the young master of the Treasure Hall say that the reason why he wore a mask all year round. It was a fire in his childhood, and his burned face was hideous and ugly, so he put on a mask so as not to frighten others. Over time, he also got used to it, although everyone would think it was a little strange at the beginning, but after a long time, it was not strange and he got used to it.

Hearing him talk about his old past so lightly, Gu Zhirong's heart would soften at this moment. A man, for an accident he had to suffer, had to endure the strange eyes of others for many years, and he had to comfort himself by saying that after a long time, when they got used to it, everything would be fine. How much bitterness there must be in this?

She also offered to help him treat the wound on his face. After all, she is well-read and has seen some secret recipes for rejuvenation. He refused, saying that it would be fine, and that he was used to it anyway. And there is no shortage of resident artists in the palace, and they all say that there is no way. After she heard this, she gave up.

However, in my heart, I felt a trace of regret for this man.

Every time she looked at his face that was not covered by a mask, she would always think, if it weren't for that fire, how would this young master's face be turned upside down?

"What are you thinking?" he asked with a smile, his narrow eyes as dark and deep as a winter night, but there was a warm orange candlelight inside, which made people's hearts warm.

"Nothing. Gu Zhirong came back to his senses at this time, and hurriedly took his cloak and hung it aside.

She didn't let the bright moon and green water follow, and there was no maid ring around her to call, so she started to do it herself.

Thinking that this is no better than at home, the dishes she ordered are more ordinary. A cup of clear fish soup, a pot of eight-treasure cloth bag chicken in milk soup, a plate of stuffed prawns, a plate of rouge duck with sauce and cucumber, and ginger sweat chicken nuggets, as well as a plate of trendy side dishes. When making the ingredients above, she also spent a lot of thought, and went to the kitchen to give instructions herself. The cook is also a humble and willing to learn, and after making it meticulously, he smelled the aroma of a room, and he had to ask Gu Zhirong to pass on his recipe.

Gu Zhirong took out a delicate pastel Fushan Shouhai bowl, filled a bowl of fish soup and handed it to him: "Try this first, this is made by me myself, I boiled it for a long time, and the umami of the fish came out." And this fish is also fresh, it was caught from this river. You see how clear this river is, needless to say, this fish is also delicious. ”

The young master laughed, took the bowl as soon as he stretched out his hand, and glanced at her: "Is this really your craft? (To be continued......)
