Chapter 80: Sin Chew

【Chapter 80 Xingzhou】Today's emperor is really different

Duan Baiyue said: "It's just a business, if the eldest young master has too many affairs in his hands, it is okay to hand it over to the second young master, as for making everyone in the mansion mutter?" ”

"But the second young master has never learned anything, so he can only take some small orders." Huang Li said, "After the eldest young master heard about this, he was not happy, and personally went to the hotel where the distinguished guests stayed, and wanted to disrupt and intercept it, but he didn't succeed. ”

Although Bao Dadu prefers the eldest son on weekdays, the palms and backs of his hands are full of meat, and since the guests are looking for the younger son by name, they did not interfere much. The business was easily negotiated, and the deposit was delivered to the door as scheduled, and it seemed that it was in an orderly manner, and no one expected that this group of killers would go on this trip without returning. Bao Dadu was furious because of this, and there was even more noise in the Sword Gate, and he didn't even dare to speak loudly. The second young master Bao Yan was grounded and imprisoned, and the eldest young master Bao Yu took people out to sea overnight and went out to the head, no one knows where he went.

Sikong Rui shook his head again and again: "This kind of son of a cheating father, it is better not to raise it if you really raise it." ”

Duan Baiyue said: "When you were serving the food, did you remember what the guest of Da Chu talked about?" ”

"I didn't stay in the house all the time, I only heard a little bit of stuff sporadically." Huang Li said, "And there are maids and servants in the dining room, and they shouldn't talk about any important matters, most of them are greeting and polite, only one sentence, the guest seems to be going to Xingzhou." ”

"Sin Chew?" Duan Baiyue had never heard of this place before.

"It's a barren island and reef, and it's also in the South China Sea." Sikong Rui knew, "But although it is barren, it is a beautiful scenery, which was accidentally discovered by fishermen when they were sheltering from the storm, and it is said that they can touch the entire galaxy at night, and the location is also good, barely able to connect with the current trade waterway." ”

"Such a good place, no one wants to occupy it?" Duan Baiyue asked.

"It's a desert island, not a town." Sikong Rui said, "Although there is no owner, if it is occupied, it will be necessary to repair houses and roads, and move people to open the port, which is not a project that can be completed in one or two years." Moreover, there are countless island countries in the South China Sea, and if anyone makes the first move, the rafters will rot first. ”

"Listening to the meaning at that time, that guest seemed to be going to live in Xingzhou permanently, and invited the second young master to be a guest in the future." Huang Li said, "I know, that's probably it." ”

Duan Baiyue nodded: "Thank you, girl." ”

"It's me who should thank a few masters." Huang Li said, "In this White Elephant Country, except for guests from other countries, no one dares to provoke the head of Bao. "I didn't have much hope before, but I didn't expect to be able to escape.

Duan Baiyue asked Duan Yao to take her back to the room first, and then asked Sikong Rui: "Xingzhou, how far is it from here?" ”

"It's not far." Sikong Rui said, "Take a larger cargo ship, the weather has been good recently, and it is estimated that it will be there in about 20 days, do you want to go and see it?" ”

Duan Baiyue nodded.

Sikong Rui said: "It's okay, Hengzhi is now refusing to accept guests at the Sword Gate, and the rest of the dart games are also in danger for everyone, and those who have tails will also be withdrawn, and if they stay here, they will not be able to keep a result." ”

Duan Baiyue said: "Listening to what the little girl just said, there may really be no problem with the Sword Gate, but the problem is the second young master Bao Yan." has been unwilling, so he wants to be a blockbuster, so he stabbed the basket. Now that he is imprisoned and grounded, and he has also affected his family and even the entire White Elephant Country, he should also regret his mistake and hate Chu Xiang and others to death. ”

Sikong Rui said: "Why don't you go and see it tonight?" ”

Duan Baiyue said: "Okay." ”

In the middle of the night, the streets are silent. The two of them easily sneaked into the sword gate, and saw that it was also dark inside, only the red lanterns were burning at the gates of each small courtyard, which looked extraordinary and unpleasant, but a little cloudy. There were at least three teams of guards patrolling, and other than that, there was no movement in the courtyards.

According to Huang Li, the courtyard where Bao Yan is held is in the southernmost part, and there are indeed many guards outside. Duan Baiyue bypassed everyone's gaze, quietly landed on the roof, leaned over to listen for a moment, then got up and walked out of the small courtyard, and fell back into the lush bushes where he had been hiding before.

After a while, Sikong Rui also came back, saying that the other side of the main house was also silent, as if everyone was sleeping with their heads bored, and nothing was found.

"It's exactly what we expected." Duan Baiyue said, "If you continue to keep it, you may not be able to keep things, but you may not be able to keep it." Time is limited, so let's go straight to Sin Chew. ”

Sikong Rui nodded and walked out of the sword gate with him.

If you want to go to sea, you must have a reason, fortunately, Wangxi Reef is famous, since the martial arts of the White Elephant Country does not take business, it is not cost-effective to run for nothing, and it is not unusual for the two to continue to go south to see other businesses.

The day before leaving, Duan Yao took Huang Li to avoid patrolling the beach at night, and unknowingly boarded a big ship heading north, letting her hide under the cabin of the ship first, and she went out of the port to board the ship the next day, planning to send people to the small island where the southwest garrison was located first, and then turn back to meet her brothers.

Duan Baiyue and Sikong Rui continued to go south to Xingzhou. This big ship is bound for the southernmost Xinmao country, but most of the guests on board disembark halfway - not to mention dozens of island countries and harbors along the way, as long as you have the heart, there are white flowers of silver to be earned, why bother to run all the way to the southernmost by sea.

And Duan Baiyue and Sikong Rui also got off the boat at a port not far from Xingzhou, and saw Duan Yao eating noodles at a small stall.

Duan Baiyue smiled: "The speed is quite fast." ”

Duan Yao also saw the two of them, and ran over after eating a bowl of noodles.

"I thought I was going to wait for you here." Sikong Rui said, "But I didn't expect you to wait for us." ”

"I came here on a clipper, with iron spear tips at both ends, much faster than the big boats." Duan Yao said, "The day before yesterday arrived. ”

"Is the little girl settled?" Duan Baiyue asked.

"I'll hand it over to Duan Nian, just to help the kitchen." Duan Yao said, "There is no girl's family on the island, and everyone loves her very much." ”

Duan Baiyue smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work." ”

"One more thing." Duan Yao said, "When I came here, I happened to see a cargo ship bound for Xingzhou leaving the port, and I asked the locals, saying that it was full of wood and ropes, as if it was going to build a house. Well, there's another ship over there, which is also going to Xingzhou, with grain and livestock on it. ”

"Livestock?" Duan Baiyue said, "It seems that there is already quite a scale above, otherwise there would be no live animals to be transported." ”

"Looking at the posture, maybe they're starting to live." Sikong Rui said, "It's just right, take this ship to the island to see what tricks are playing." ”

In the city of Da Chu Yunde, in front of a lonely grave, a white-haired old woman is bowing down to burn paper, there is no name on the tombstone, only a red mark is engraved in the lower left corner, indicating that the owner of this tomb is related to the palace.

And the people in the city also talked about it, not because of anything else, but because the Holy One himself had come to see him off for the last time a few days ago.

But there are really some identities.

"Let's go." Burning the last piece of paper in her hand, Aunt Feng got up and picked up the basket tremblingly.

The wife next to her helped her: "Slow down." ”

Aunt Feng said: "Over the years, I know that he is in the palace, and you also know that he is in the palace. ”

"I know." My wife complained, "He loves to keep it, so let him keep it, but he can't get rid of it, it seems that I care about him a lot." ”

Aunt Feng shook her head with a smile, straightened his clothes for him, and slowly returned home with a smile. Along the way, I saw a fish seller, so I carried two, just tomorrow my daughter and son-in-law came back, and the family was also lively.

As the sun sets, the vast wilderness is quiet and serene.

And in the White Sea on the border, the warships of the Chu State are neatly anchored in the harbor, and when the sails are raised, there is no end in sight.

In the middle of the night, a strong wind arose, and the ship shook violently in the sea. At the bottom of the cabin, Sikong Rui caught a fallen cabbage and said, "Let me suffer this crime with you, this favor, I'm afraid I won't be able to pay it off in the next life." ”

Duan Baiyue said: "You think too much, I don't plan to pay it back at all." ”

Sikong Rui pulled a cloth bag and lowered his head and vomited.

Duan Baiyue and Duan Yao turned their heads in unison, and no one cared if he could still hold on.

Sikong Rui is weak, and life is better than death.

Fortunately, before he could vomit his stomach, the big ship arrived at Sin Chew first and anchored at the port dock.

There was a lot of noise around, and the three of them hid in the dark room of the cabin until dawn, when the surroundings were quiet, and then they secretly disembarked and went ashore.

The surroundings are still barren, but a hastily built port, and there are not many people. It's just that the further you go in, the heavier the smell of fireworks becomes, and gradually there are villages, and even a market when you look at the posture.

"All the countries in the South Seas did not dare to act rashly, but they asked outsiders to pick up the cheap." Sikong Rui shook his head.

Duan Baiyue said: "Look at the clothes, there are Chu people, and some don't know where they come from. ”

Sikong Rui said: "I don't know either, but there are many island countries in the South Seas, and the people are very different, which is not strange." ”

"Wait." Duan Baiyue motioned for the two of them to look forward, "What do you think it looks like?" ”

A cluster of low-rise houses lined up neatly, as square as tofu, arranged extremely neatly, not to mention dozens of them.

Duan Yao said: "Army? ”

Duan Baiyue nodded: "If an ordinary village builds a house, who will build it like this." ”

"Chu Xiang is raising troops here?" Sikong Rui sighed, "Yes, now I have to play." ”

"Someone's coming." Duan Yao said.

The three of them quickly dodged behind a boulder.

After a while, I saw a group of people coming from afar. The person who started with the brocade clothes and jade belt, which was incompatible with the desolate and dilapidated scene around him, was the deposed high king Chu Xiang.

Sikong Rui said: "It's really from the palace, and the aura is different from the rest of the people at first glance." ”

Duan Baiyue asked, "Looking for the aura of death?" ”

Sikong Rui: "......"

Duan Yao added on the side: "The aura of today's emperor is different. ”

"That's, who can compare with the emperor, but I haven't seen it." Sikong Rui held his hands and was dissatisfied, "Even if you had a relationship when you were a child, you pinched off your arm, how can you still see any aura." ”

Duan Yao opened his mouth wide when he heard this, and looked at his brother in shock.

Have you ever done anything like this?
