Chapter 210: Chips
The Shinno River is a major river that runs through the entire northern underworld, and it is very busy with boats coming and going. It's a pity that because www.biquge.info of the second prince, the third prince put the battlefield by the river. So this river, which carried the transportation of the Northern Underworld Waterway, also fell silent. However, there are also some merchants who are not afraid of death, in order to take advantage of this rare opportunity to make a windfall, they still lead their fleets to cross the war zone with death.
In the middle of the moon, the stars were shining, and the fireflies with glowing green light were shining like jewels in the half-human-high reeds, and Liu Hui and his party finally came to a special dock for cargo ships to dock by the Xinye River.
Liu Hui grabbed the reins, looked at the silent river that was as dark as ink, and commanded in a deep voice: "It's getting late, rest at the Finding Home Inn." ”
"Yes!" the guard agreed, and immediately went to look for the inn.
Nowadays, although the business of the dock is not prosperous, there are several inns that are barely supporting it. Soon Hua Lianyue and her party successfully settled in one of the inns, but Hua Lianyue soon found that Ji Huang had disappeared inexplicably with a few guards.
asked casually, Liu Hui only said that he was looking for another place to rest, so as not to have a large number of people and a big target, and it would be easy to be given a nest by the enemy. Wow! Sleep is so strategic, Hua Lianyue secretly stuck out the tip of her tongue to express her incomparable admiration.
Yu Xi was lying on the bed of the inn unconsciously, and Tang Wu sat on the edge of the bed and turned the group under the command of the big and small shuang. He carefully untied the strip of cloth on Yu Xi's forehead with sharp scissors, revealing the back of his head that was deeply injured.
Hua Liyue raised the oil lamp in her hand and moved closer. In the light of the candlelight, his thick black hair was clumped with clotted blood. The wound was very deep and deep, and you could almost see the snow-white skull under the cortex, like a hideous mouth hidden in the black hair, which was intimidating.
"Qing Shui!" As soon as Tang Wu's words fell, Da Shuang had already brought the copper basin containing Qing Shui to the bed. Tang Wu rolled up his sleeves, wrung the soft cotton cloth, and began to clean the blood clots around Yu Xi's wound.
Hua Lianyue frowned and muttered, "Such a deep wound, it must be very painful to clean, why didn't he react at all?"
Tang Wu hurriedly replied to her: "The weather is too hot, and his wounds have been soaked in dirty water, so they are rotting badly." Now that he has a high fever, it depends on the will of God whether he can be saved, what reaction do you expect him to give you at this time?"
Hua Lianyue rolled her eyes and obediently closed her mouth. I can't help and talk a lot, and I have to be complained about a few words, so I have to treat it as if I didn't hear it.
Seeing Tang Wu neatly wash the blood stains from the wound, he took a knife full of cold light and licked it on the orange flame. Hua Lianyue knew that the next step was to remove the carrion from the wound, she couldn't bear to look at it anymore, handed the oil lamp to Dashuang, and she silently retreated to the square table next to her and sat down.
Liu Hui brought a cup of herbal tea and put it in front of her, and said, "Drink saliva to moisten your throat." ”
Hua Lianyue's throat was already dry and about to smoke, she wiped the fine beads of sweat from her forehead, and unceremoniously picked up the teacup and drank it all. Wiping the drops of water from the corners of her mouth, she suddenly asked, "Has my eldest brother always been your ally?"
"That's good!" Liu Hui said without hesitation: "Your eldest brother has always had his own opinions, he knows very well what he should do and what he should not do?"
Hua Lianyue nodded, and she looked through the open window lattice and looked at the Xinye River that flowed quietly not far away. Feel the damp river breeze mixed with a faint fishy smell, and the residual heat continues to blow over your cheeks. After a long time, she suddenly asked, "If Ah Xi can pick up a life this time, who are you going to send him to?"
Liu Hui looked at her and hesitated for a while before he said in a deep voice: "Yu Yuan, I will arrange for someone to send him to Yu Yuan." ”
Hua Lianyue nodded again, a hint of clarity flashed in her eyes. Sure enough, as she thought, Yu Xi has become an important chess piece in his hands. After all, Yu Xi seems to be weak and harmless, but he can affect the nerves of the two brothers Yu Guang and Yu Yuan at the same time.
In comparison, Yu Yuan was already the strongest in the army, and he was favored by Wu Luolan, so he was naturally much more difficult than Yu Guang. Sending Yu Xi to him, first, can disturb his mind, second, it can provoke Yu Guang's crazy counterattack, and third, it can make Wu Luolan dislike him.
If Liu Hui can't take advantage of such a plan to kill three birds with one stone, he is not a virtuous king known for his resourcefulness.
Although she has only known Yu Xi for a few days, his sister Hua made her really feel a little pity. If she had a choice, she really didn't want to see him become a parasite who depended on others. Even if you lose this so-called identity of the Seventh Prince and become an ordinary person, you will be much happier.
Hua Liyue played with the empty cup in her hand and was silent for a long time. Liu Hui's eyes gradually sank, he stared at her for a while, and blurted out, "You can tell me what you think!"
As soon as the words fell, Hua Lianyue quickly raised her eyes and glanced at him, showing a bit of joy in her eyes.
Originally, as soon as these words came out, Liu Hui felt a little annoyed in his heart, after all, sending Yu Xi to Yu Yuan was a decision made by everyone, not him alone. At this moment, seeing Hua Lianyue showing a depressed look, his heart softened, and he immediately relieved without thinking.
But seeing the joy in her eyes, he felt that these concessions were actually nothing.
Hua Lianyue really twisted her eyebrows and thought carefully.
Liu Hui was not in a hurry to urge, he leaned on the back of the chair, gently shook the folding fan in his hand, and picked up the teacup in front of him from time to time and took a sip slowly.
"There is!" Hua Lianyue's eyes suddenly lit up, and she said, "I also have a plan to kill two birds with one stone!" she leaned forward and whispered in Liu Hui's ear......
After a long time, Liu Hui's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he suddenly slapped on the table, and said happily: "This plan is feasible, this plan is feasible......
Early in the morning of the second day, Hua Lianyue went downstairs for breakfast after washing, and Liu Hui had been waiting at the table for a long time. He wore a lake-blue brocade robe, with a smooth hollow jade belt around his waist, and the hazy morning light seemed to coat him with a layer of glow and mist as he sat quietly.
Hua Liyue stopped and took a deep breath. Although Yu Xi's complexion is unmatched, in front of Liu Hui, there is still a little less sharpened edge.
So after she was amazed by Yu Xi, she continued to cherish him as a younger brother without waves, but she couldn't look at Liu Hui calmly for a long time.
Experience tells everyone that you must not wander when going down the stairs, and the result of distraction is that it is easy to mess up the pace, treat the second floor as a first step and pounce down, and then gorgeously come to a standard dog to grab.
Fortunately, she had already reached the last two steps, and fortunately, Liu Hui sat close enough, and when she screamed and fell down with amazing momentum, she just threw herself into his arms impartially.
Hua Lianyue was shocked, but he hugged her tightly and chuckled in her ear: "This way of greeting is very good, I like it very much, and I will remember to be so enthusiastic next time." The guards who were scattered around lowered their heads and did not dare to look directly.
Enthusiastic ghost!
Hua Lianyue blushed instantly, and she whispered with a sad face: "It's all because the sun is too dazzling, so I can't see the steps clearly, and I won't be like this next time." ”
The corners of Liu Hui's mouth twitched, and he squinted at the sun hidden behind the clouds in the distance, and its light dyed the thick clouds a fiery red. He withdrew his eyes, nodded and agreed: "Sure enough, the sun is too dazzling, you should be careful next time." ”
Hua Lianyue broke free from his embrace, held her head high, sat down opposite him gracefully, and said, "Let's eat, I'll have to hurry later!"
Liu Hui smiled lightly and beckoned Xiao Er to serve the food.
After a simple breakfast, everyone was ready to go, and Yu Xi, whose condition was still not improving, was carried into the mule cart again.
Hua Lianyue sat on the horse and twisted her neck to look left and right, and when she saw everyone getting on the horse, she finally couldn't help but ask, "Why don't you see Ji Shizi?"
Liu Hui smiled faintly and said, "He is already exploring the way ahead, let's catch up with him quickly!"
"Wow!" Hua Lianyue suddenly exclaimed: "No wonder you like to go out with him, if I also have such a companion who opens the road and meets the water and builds bridges in the mountains, I must take it with me wherever I go." ”
"Puff"
"Puff"
Liu Hui swept over lightly, and saw that his two guards were embarrassed to get on the saddle, but they fell short because of their slippery feet. He retracted his gaze and said with a light smile: "Be careful, if Ji Huang knows that you are secretly teasing him, he will definitely not give you a good look." ”
"Who said I was secretly ridiculing?" Hua Lianyue raised her voice and said, "Obviously, I am just a fair ridicule." Besides....." She turned around and swept the guards behind her, and said with a smile: "Now there are only a few people who hear me ridiculing, if Ji Huang knows, they will also secretly sue him." When it comes to being careful, women are better than men after all......"
No one can hear such a clear threat. The guards all bowed their heads and did not speak, but judging from the clenched cheeks they were grinning, it was extremely hard to endure the smile.
"Let's go!"
After the preparation, under Liu Hui's order, everyone escorted the mule cart on the road again. However, instead of walking up the wide official road, they kept walking along the muddy river.
Until an hour passed, a tall cargo ship was parked on the shore ahead.
Liu Hui's eyes lit up and murmured, "It's finally here!"
Soon, the group got on the cargo ship, and even the mule cart was driven up. There were also a few men from the North Darkness who came down from the ship, and buried all the footprints left by Liu Hui and them, leaving no traces at all.
Stepping on the wet and slippery but sturdy plank, Hua Liyue asked in some surprise, "The owner of this ship is a Northern Underworld?"
Liu Hui smiled lightly, took her hand, and said, "Although he is from the Northern Underworld, he is also Ji Huang's nemesis. ”
"Then I'd like to see it. "Hua Liyue is almost excited. has been plotted by Ji Huang countless times, and she also wants to see someone with such great powers who can restrain him, a fox who has become a spirit.
Led by a girl in the Northern Darkness wearing a short emerald green dress and a white floral skirt, Liu Hui led Hua Liyue to a closed hatch. The girl knocked softly on the hatch, and a lazy and pleasant female voice came from inside: "Invite the guests in!"
Wow! It's a woman. Hua Lianyue silently lip-shaped Liu Hui.
The girl of the Northern Darkness immediately pushed the hatch open, Liu Hui smiled lightly, and led Hua Lianyue in.
At first glance, Hua Lianyue saw a woman in gorgeous clothes standing at the round table of rosewood inlaid with marble, this woman's face was like a spring peach, her eyes were like paint, her lips were plump and her teeth were white, and she really looked like a ripe peach.
She wore a light purple low-necked gown, revealing a large area of snow white on her chest. A brocade belt with thin tassels hanging tightly around her slender waist. It shows that she has big breasts and fat buttocks, and a hot body.
Ji Huang, who had disappeared all night, was sitting alone at the round table. His eyebrows were furrowed, and there was obvious impatience between his eyebrows, and when he saw Liu Hui coming in, his eyes immediately lit up, and he stood up and complained, "Why are you here so late?"
The hot river breeze blows the pink veil hanging in front of the window, and the sun flickers on and down, casting it on the woman's beautiful face, which looks uncertain.
Liu Hui raised his eyebrows, smiled brightly, and said, "It's rare for the fourth princess to meet you, so naturally she has a lot to say." If we had come early, wouldn't we have known each other too much!"
"Fourth princess?" Hua Lianyue looked at the beautiful woman in surprise, but she didn't know that her identity was so noble.
"Yue'er, this is the princess of the North Underworld. Liu Hui said with a smile.
I only listened to the story of Mrs. Chasing the Moon yesterday, and today there is another princess who invites the moon. This old Northern Hades King really has a soft spot for the moon. Hua Lianyue secretly slandered and bowed to Princess Yueyue.
Princess Yingyue helped her, smiled lightly, and said, "What princess, it's just a widow whose husband died early!" After finishing speaking, her eyes fluttered, and she subconsciously looked at Ji Huang, who was silent.
He didn't look at her, but turned his head to look out the window through the raised veil. The boat had already left the shore, but it could faintly see the undulating reeds on the shore, and a flock of egrets startled from the reeds, flapping their wings and flying into the distance.
Seeing that Ji Huang's expression remained unchanged, still faintly impatient, Princess Yueyue's bright eyes darkened significantly. She didn't see that his hands, hidden in his wide-sleeved robe, were clenched into fists.
Princess Yueyue was obviously only concerned about Ji Huang, Liu Hui was very eye-catching, and after a few words of greeting, he immediately took Hua Lianyue to say goodbye and leave.
The maid who had been waiting outside the cabin door led them to another clean room on the second floor, and after the maid retreated, Hua Lianyue, who had been holding back her words, took the opportunity to ask: "Shouldn't the princess stay in the palace? Why is this princess Yueyue so free and easy, and can take the guards and travel around on a cargo ship? Also, why did she become a widow, and what is the relationship with Ji Huang?"
Liu Hui smiled lightly, so he said embarrassedly: "With so many questions, where should I start?"
Hua Lianyue held his sleeve and said expectantly: "It's okay, it's okay, anyway, I'll listen to it." ”
Liu Hui smiled lightly and was about to speak, when a burst of shouts suddenly sounded outside, followed by a noisy shout of killing. Liu Hui's expression froze suddenly, he walked quickly to the closed window, pushed it open, and looked out.
There was a violent tremor from the wooden deck, and the river outside the deck set off a murky wave, and countless masked assassins dressed in black jumped from the waves. These assassins were menacing, and after jumping onto the deck, they couldn't help but say that they were stabbing at the sailors who heard the sound.
