160 Chapter 158: Meeting
As soon as the words came out, the rest of the people didn't react for a while, only Duan Yao was shocked: "Huh? β
"Won't it?" Seeing everyone's ghostly expressions, Yueluo was anxious, she liked Duan Baiyue very much, and it was inevitable that she would not be worth it for him this time, so she hurriedly said: "This is only a few months at most, how can you remarry someone else, even if you give birth to the child in your belly first." β
There was silence on the ship.
Isn't there something wrong?
"You're a general." Yue Luo pulled Chu Yuan's sleeve, "That big brother likes his daughter-in-law, and he is talking every day about going back to the barracks as soon as possible so that he can watch the child be born." But now that everyone has remarried, he must be very sad when he finds out, and you have to persuade him then. β
Chu Yuan took a deep breath and smiled calmly: "Naturally." β
Duan Yao tried to interject to help her dear brother salvage the situation: "I said girl-"
Chu Yuan raised his hand and signaled him not to say much.
Duan Yao wanted to cry without tears, wondering if his brother had broken his head when he fell into the sea, and felt as if he was hopeless.
"Then we'll go." Yueluo said, "You are not allowed to follow, otherwise Grandpa will know, and the big brother will be in danger." β
Chu Yuan nodded: "Don't worry, girl, Chu Jun has always done what he says, and we have no intention of disturbing your life." β
Ah Shen clenched his fists and said goodbye, and returned to the boat with Yueluo.
Seeing the two of them walking farther and farther, Shen Qianfeng said, "Do you want to follow secretly?" β
Chu Yuan shook his head: "I don't know where that island came from, if it is discovered, it will be more troublesome." If the two of them had the intention to hide it, they wouldn't have admitted it so happily at first, so wait. β
Shen Qianfeng nodded and ordered the army to retreat to the islands and reefs. Duan Yao stood beside Chu Yuan and said, "Is it really going to be okay?" "It's not easy to find my brother's whereabouts, what if I don't follow him and something happens.
"I can't say." Chu Yuan said, "Keeping up with and waiting in place for seven days are both risky, but you can only pick a relatively safe one." β
Duan Yao nodded: "Hmm." β
"It's fine." Chu Yuan patted him on the shoulder, "So many winds and waves have come, it's only seven days, just wait." β
"Okay." Duan Yao wrinkled her nose and said, "The words that my brother said on the island must be for self-preservation, and there will be no other meaning." β
Chu Yuan smiled: "Otherwise? β
"...... "If you don't care, that's the best." Duan Yao coughed twice: "Then I'll go eat something." β
Chu Yuan nodded, and also turned back to the cabin.
On the boat, Yueluo held her head with her hands, as if she was in a trance.
Ah Shen asked while rowing, "What are you thinking?" β
"Are you really going to smuggle people off the island?" Yueluo was worried, "If Grandpa knows, we-"
"It's my business alone, and it's none of your business." Ah Shen said.
"It doesn't matter to me." Yueluo was anxious, "You fool, I'm worried about you!" β
"I know." Ah Shen lowered the oars, "The man in the village, I know his identity. β
"I know that too." Yue Luo said, "He said on the first day he came, he is a small leader in the Chu army. β
"He's not a small boss, he's a big general." Ah Shen continued to row.
"Huh?" Yueluo was surprised, "Really? β
"He is the prince of Chu State, his name is Duan Baiyue, when I went to sea this time, everyone in the Chu army camp was looking for him." Ah Shen said, "Otherwise, think about it, how many people will die in each battle, if it is not for the illustrious status, where is the use of deliberately bringing troops to find it." β
"It's a big official." Yueluo suddenly realized, but after thinking about it, she said, "It's not okay for a big official, Grandpa will still punish you." β
Ah was silent, just caring about rowing faster. Seeing that he didn't speak, Yueluo felt even more uncertain, so she simply grabbed his wrist: "No!" We have to discuss a way, even if we want to send him out of the village, we must send him secretly, and we can't let Grandpa and them know the truth. Why don't we go back? Find a small boat to follow, and hide behind the reef when the time comesβ"
"I want to leave the end of the world." Ah Shen interrupted her.
"What did you say?" Yueluo was shocked, thinking that she should have misheard.
"I want to leave the stockade." Ah Shen looked at the sea, "I want to go to war." β
"Why?" Yueluo almost cried urgently, "Fighting will kill people." β
"It's not fun to be in the stockade." Ah Shen said.
"Who said it, it's interesting in the stockade." Yueluo knelt down opposite him, "Have you fallen for the evil, we are all going to get married." β
"I'll take you to the barracks." Ah Shen said.
Yueluo: "......"
"If you don't want to go, then, forget it." Ah Shen avoided her gaze, "Everyone in the village likes you, and they want to marry your offspring so much-"
"Hey!" Yueluo slapped him on the head, "I kissed you, do you still want to marry someone else?" β
Shen: "......"
"But if we leave like this, everyone will be sad." Yueluo sat back on the boat, sullen. The two fathers and mothers were shipwrecked when they went to sea to fish, and they and Brother A Shen grew up eating hundreds of family meals, so how could they betray the village.
"Come with me?" Ah Shen asked.
Yueluo lowered her head.
Ah Shen didn't speak again, just rowed back with all his might. Pushed by the tides and the sea breeze, the speed of going back is much faster than going out to sea. It only took half the time it took to see the horizon. There were fishing nets and sea vegetables on the beach, and the big guys were talking and laughing, and when they saw the two of them coming back, they covered their mouths and made fun of them, and helped pull the boat ashore, slapped them twice on their bodies, and urged them to go home and change their clothes and prepare for dinner.
Ah Shen took Yueluo's hand and sent her all the way home.
"Are you really leaving?" Yueluo asked.
Ah Shen nodded: "I will take someone to sea tomorrow night." β
Yueluo slapped him in the chest, angry and anxious, turned around and closed the door.
Ah Shen sighed, turned around and went to the entrance of the village.
Duan Baiyue was breathing in the courtyard, and when she saw him come in, she smiled and said, "What's the matter, you quarreled with that little girl?" β
Ah Shen sat opposite him and said, "I'll go with you." β
Duan Baiyue was surprised: "Have you thought about it?" β
"There's going to be a strong wind tomorrow night." Ah Shen said, "Get ready to go to sea." β
"What about Yueluo?" Duan Baiyue asked.
"She's not leaving." Ah Shen said, "You have to stay in the stockade." β
"Do you want me to persuade you?" Duan Baiyue handed him a cup of tea.
"No need." Ah Shen said, "It's good for her to stay here, everyone loves her." Follow me out, I don't know what the future will look like. β
"Whatever you want." Duan Baiyue said, "But if I were you, no matter what method I used, whether I was coaxed or cheated or stalked, I always had to keep my beloved by my side." β
"Who is that person you like?" Ah Shen asked.
Duan Baiyue paused slightly, and smiled: "What's the matter, I heard the wind again when I went to sea this time?" β
"I met someone who came looking for you." Ah Shen said.
"Who?" Duan Baiyue's face changed.
"A whole fleet, thousands of people. Among them, there is a person who is very good at kung fu, it should be the martial arts alliance leader you said, and there is another person who doesn't know his identity, but he doesn't look like an ordinary person, he cares about you very much. β
Duan Baiyue's heart was full of emotion, and she only hated that she couldn't give birth to wings, and after a long time, she asked in a dumb voice, "Is he okay?" β
"Okay?" Ah Shen felt that this question was a little strange, and thought for a while, "It's good." β
"No wonder you suddenly paid attention." Duan Baiyue said, "Thank you." β
"Then I'm leaving." Ah Shen stood up, "I'll take you out, and you also remember what you promised me." β
"Nature." Duan Baiyue said, "No one will ever come to disturb this village, unless you want to do something for them. β
Ah Shen nodded, turned around and strode away.
The night was extremely quiet, and the next day, the village was still the same as before, with smoke curling and laughing. Yueluo sat on the roof for a while, feeling irritable, wanting to find Duan Baiyue, but before she went out, she changed her mind, turned around and slept under the quilt, and no one came to open the door.
Duan Baiyue said: "Really don't look for it?" β
Ah Shen sat in the courtyard sharpening his knife, but he didn't hear it.
As we approached, a strong wind blew on the beach. Duan Baiyue has come back eighty percent, and followed Ah Shen out of the house easily, there was a small boat parked behind the reef, Ah Shen untied the rope and pulled Duan Baiyue up, and the two of them lifted the curtain hanging on the cabin door, but they were both shocked.
Yueluo was carrying a small burden and was sitting inside, her eyes grieving.
Duan Baiyue raised her eyebrows.
Yueluo said: "Hmph! β
Ah Shen scratched his head and didn't speak, but his eyes couldn't hide the joy.
"This is not the place to talk about love." Duan Baiyue said, "Let's go first." β
Ah Shen nodded, asked him and Yueluo to sit down first, and with a hard run of the oars, he drove the boat away from the shore.
It was pitch black in the cabin, and Yueluo took out a night pearl and set it in a wooden box.
Duan Baiyue said: "It seems that all the valuable softness is hung on the body." β
"You liar!" Yueluo said angrily, "I believe in you so much! β
"I lied to you, but I also helped you catch up with your sweetheart." Duan Baiyue said, "Is it enough?" β
"Not enough." Yueluo slapped the table.
"That's easy." Duan Baiyue said, "You saved the prince of Dachu, and when you see the emperor in the future, whatever reward you want, just ask, Wangcheng, Jiangnan, Shuzhong or Dali, I will buy you the house wherever you want." β
"Your Majesty." Yue Luo was diverted a little, "I heard that the emperor of Da Chu is very good-looking. β
"It's very beautiful." Duan Baiyue said, "But you are not allowed to marry." β
"I'm not going to marry, I'm going to marry Brother Ashen." Yueluo pouted, "And the emperor must be very fierce." β
"The fleet you met a few days ago, was the man at the head fierce?" Duan Baiyue asked.
"That big brother." Yueluo shook her head, "It's not fierce, that brother is very good-looking, and he speaks in a good voice." β
"He is the emperor of Da Chu." Duan Baiyue said.
"Really?" Yueluo was surprised.
Duan Baiyue nodded.
"The emperor came to you in person." Yueluo was still a little incredible, she actually saw the emperor of Da Chu like this, and she was a little annoyed that she didn't look twice. After a while, I remembered another thing: "But I was still holding his hand and asking him about your daughter-in-law, is it okay?" β
Duan Baiyue's expression froze: "Huh? β
"I was in a hurry and wanted to help you ask if your pregnant daughter-in-law had remarried." Yue Luo said, "Later, the emperor didn't speak, so I thought that I had remarried, and it was not worth it for you, so I spoke louder." β
Duan Baiyue put her hands on her shoulders: "Pregnant daughter-in-law? β
"That's right." Yueluo nodded, "I also said that at least I should wait for the child to be born before remarrying, I was very angry." But the emperor looked quite pleasant, and promised me that I would comfort you well. But do you have a daughter-in-law, Brother Ah Shen said that you lied to me, you are the prince, will you really marry a husband? β
Duan Baiyue wanted to cry without tears: "You ......"
"What's wrong with me?" Yueluo asked cautiously, "Did you say the wrong thing?" β
"Nope." Duan Baiyue waved her hand weakly and calmed down, "Okay, you let me be quiet for an hour." β
"Oh." Yueluo agreed and sat down on the mat obediently.
Duan Baiyue wanted to look up to the sky and sigh, thinking that if it really didn't work, he could only slap his chest twice and get a serious injury by vomiting blood, maybe he could escape this catastrophe.
On the edge of the island and reef, Chu Yuan was sitting on the bow of the boat looking at the stars, and Duan Yao came over with a bowl of hot noodle soup, saying that it was freshly cooked, and it was good to warm up with some supper.
"Go to bed earlier later." Chu Yuan said, "These things are left to the husband to do." β
"That's not good, my brother will be back in a few days, and I will feel distressed when I see that the emperor has lost weight." Duan Yao said, "Before leaving, Brother Ye and Sister Ah Li said that they would let the emperor eat four meals a day, and add snacks. β
Chu Yuan was amused and tapped his nose with the tail of chopsticks.
Duan Yao also sat beside him, chatting and watching the sea together, and by the way, he secretly boasted about his brother's deeds in the southwest, south, and north, and even used a poem specially copied from Lord Wen, which was very advanced.
Chu Yuan fed him a fish ball: "Please, let me be quiet for a while." β
Duan Yao: "......"
I really can't say it anymore, out of the seventy-two villages in the southwest, I just said three.
Chu Yuan drank the last sip of soup, jumped off the side of the boat and returned to his residence.
Duan Yao held the empty bowl and stood on tiptoe to look at the other side of the sea.
I don't know when my brother will come back.
The boat swayed with the wind and waves, and Yueluo leaned on the soft pillow, feeling that it was not as reluctant as she had thought before, but on the contrary, there was some excitement and expectations for a completely unknown future. Listening to Duan Baiyue's story about the war, a whole day will pass before you know it. As it became farther and farther away from the end of the world, it became closer and closer to the islands and reefs where the Chu army was stationed. In the early morning of the sixth day, Ah Shen lifted the curtain and said, "It's here." β
"Wow!" Yueluo couldn't wait, and bent down to get out first, and saw that it was really Da Chu's fleet not far ahead, and the good-looking brother from before was standing on the bow of the boat looking at this side.
"It's the emperor, it's the emperor who came to pick you up!" Yueluo turned around, "Quick, come out and see!" β
Duan Baiyue took a deep breath, straightened her clothes, and before she could stand up, the boat shook.
"Emperor, Emperor." Yueluo was taken aback, and quickly hid behind Ah Shen, stretched out her hand and pointed timidly, "Lord Wang, it's inside." β
"It's hard work." Chu Yuan said, "Let's go to the big boat first, Yao'er has already arranged a place to live." β
Ah Shen nodded and took Yueluo Fei onto the big boat.
Duan Yao hurriedly caught up and asked, "Is my brother okay?" β
"It's okay, it's good." Yueluo said, "Aren't you going to take a look?" β
"It's okay." Duan Yao smiled dryly, that, I'd better not watch it now, otherwise I'm afraid I'll be thrown into the sea to feed the fish.
Chu Yuan stretched out his hand to open the curtain, and before he could see it clearly, he was pulled into his arms.
Duan Baiyue pinched his chin and lowered his head to kiss it.
Chu Yuan stroked the side of his face with one hand, looked at the familiar eyebrows and eyes with the faint light of the night pearl, and finally closed his eyes gently.
"I miss you so much." Duan Baiyue's palm slid across his back, locking the person firmly into his arms, and he couldn't stop pecking and kissing at his neck.
Chu Yuan exerted a slight force, as if he wanted to push him away.
"I know it's all my fault this time." Duan Baiyue tightened her arms and said in a dumb voice, "It's up to you to punish you when you go back, now let me hug me first, huh?" β
"Are you healed?" Chu Yuan sighed, his fingers running through his black hair.
"Alright." Duan Baiyue's chin rested on his shoulder, "Don't worry. β
"Let's go back." Chu Yuan straightened his clothes for him, "Let the doctor take a look at it for you." β
Duan Baiyue dragged his cheeks with both hands, lowered his head and kissed him again, before pulling the person to stand up.
"Brother!" Duan Yao waved his hand.
Duan Baiyue raised his luck and jumped onto the big boat with Chu Yuan, his figure staggering a little.
"Hey!" Duan Yao hurriedly helped him.
Chu Yuan also frowned, and ordered him to go down and summon the imperial doctor to come over immediately.
"Imp." While Chu Yuan was talking to others, Duan Baiyue asked in a low voice, "Your sister-in-law isn't angry with me, is she?" β
"What do you think?" Duan Yao looked at him with sympathetic eyes, "If I were you, I would pretend to be dead on the way." That day, the little girl was amazing, and actually asked him in front of his sister-in-law if he had remarried, and said that even if he wanted to remarry, he would have to give birth to a child for you first. β
Duan Baiyue: "......"
Chu Yuan turned around: "What are you talking about?" β
"Nothing." Duan Yao hugged Duan Baiyue and said with a solemn gaze, "Brother just suddenly wanted to vomit blood." β
Duan Baiyue: "......"
Duan Baiyue said, "Hmm." β
