Chapter 095: Return to Jinling
The autumn breeze is curling, squinting and sorrowful, and the river is rippling under the leaves.
Unconsciously, Qiyun went out of Henan with Liu Yilong and his entourage, and entered the boundary of Jingzhou in Liu Song, and everyone abandoned the car and boat, and went down the Yangtze River all the way. On the surface of the Yangtze River, ships flying the banner of King Yidu slowly headed eastward.
In the early autumn season, the river is vast, and the scorching sun shines on the river, and it is white. Close to the riverbank, you can see the weeping willows on the riverbank, dancing, like a cloud of jade smoke, knowing that the tree is crying happily, and the scenery in the north is very different.
Liu Yilong opened the bead curtain and saw that on the railing chair in the cabin, Qiyun was just sitting quietly, looking at the river intently.
It was getting late, and when it was about to enter the waters of Wuhu, Yidu Wang's ship was about to dock and stopped, and entered a narrow body of water. Suddenly, a merchant ship in front of them seemed to be out of order, and many people were busy carrying their belongings, blocking their ships from coming forward to berth. Liu Yilong ordered Wang Hua to go and check and inquire.
After a while, Wang Hua came back and reported: "Lord Wang, the cabin in front of you is leaking, and the people on board are busy rescuing the materials on the ship, so they are blocking our way." The subordinates took a closer look, and there was nothing wrong with it being a boat from an ordinary rich family. ”
Yilong pondered for a moment, and commanded in a deep voice: "It's getting late, we are in a hurry to dock and anchor." Let them quickly remove the contents of the ship and sink the ship. We will bear all the losses. ”
Wang Hua took the order and left. After a while, after a cup of tea, Wang Hua came back, followed by two women. Wang Huayu said: "Lord Wang, the owner of the boat is a young woman, a native of Jiankang Danyang. She said that there was no problem with sinking her ship, but she hurried back to Danyang to celebrate her mother's birthday. Therefore, she hopes to take the prince's boat and go back to Jiankang together. ”
Yilong bowed his head slightly, and said warmly: "Since this is the case, leave them and go with us." ”
The woman in front lowered her head slightly, she couldn't see her face clearly, but she saw that her posture was graceful. When the woman saw Liu Yilong, Ying Ying bowed, and said coquettishly: "Little woman Lu Huinan, I don't know that it is the boat of His Royal Highness the King of Yidu, blocking your way, it really shouldn't be." The prince did not give up, and he was able to bring the little woman back to Jiankang together, and the little woman was grateful. ”
Yilong said lightly: "Miss Lu, acquaintance is a kind of fate. The cabin of this king is just loose, and by the way, you don't have to be polite. ”
The woman saluted again and straightened up. Looking at the light, I saw the woman's snowy skin, fragrant skin and jade bones, and the posture of sinking fish and geese, and everyone's eyes were attracted. Qiyun, who was sitting beside Yilong, also raised his eyes and saw the woman's appearance, and couldn't help but be surprised, it turned out that she was Leng Yu of the Chaoying Palace.
Leng Yu pretended to be a Jiankang Danyang person, what was he going to do? Qiyun frowned slightly, puzzled. At this time, a young woman turned out behind Leng Yu, saluted Liu Yilong, and said heartily: "Little woman Yinxue, I have seen King Yidu. ”
"Yinxue?" Qiyun took a closer look, it was Mo Yinxue, the eldest lady of the Chaoying Palace who had been absent for many days, and she was so surprised that she couldn't help but call softly. Hearing this, Yin Xue's beautiful eyes widened, and she hurriedly stepped forward to hold Qiyun's hand, and shouted happily: "Sister Yun, is it you?" To be able to meet you here shows that our fate is really extraordinary! ”
Qiyun also asked in a loud voice, "Yin Xue, why are you here?" Are you going to Jiankang? ”
Yin Xue smiled briskly and replied: "Sister Yun, haven't you always told me that Jiankang is prosperous and is the center of Han culture?" I wanted to come and play, and this time I finally made the trip, but I didn't want to meet my sister here. ”
Liu Yilong listened to it on the side, and suddenly asked out loud: "Miss Yinxue is the same as Miss Lu, is she also from Danyang?" ”
Yin Xue was stunned for a moment, then replied with a smile: "Back to the prince, I also just met that Miss Lu." I'm going to Jiankang and find out that her ship is going to pass through Jiankang. So, I gave Miss Lu some silver and asked them to take me with me. Well, now that I have Sister Yun with me, I'm not alone anymore. ”
Qiyun secretly thought in her heart that Leng Jue pretended to enter the Song Kingdom, and she was afraid that she would be assigned by Mo Chuan to do some confidential things, and she would not go all the way with Yin Xue. So, he said to Yilong: "Brother Yilong, Yinxue is a friend of mine. Can you take her with you to Jiankang? ”
For many days, Liu Yilong saw Qiyun clear his worries day by day, and he was worried in his heart, and he didn't know how to explain it for her. Right now, such a bright and lovely girl has come, and accompanying her can also relieve some of Yun'er's melancholy troubles. So, to Yin Xue and Yan Yuese, told her not to be formal.
At night, the river is dark, and the fishing fires in the distance flicker and darken. Qiyun instructed the attendants to settle Yinxue, who was tired and unconcerned from the journey, and fell asleep after a while. Qiyun leaned on the side of the boat alone, blowing the river breeze, and looked into the distance by the railing.
"What a Zhuohua county lord, wherever he goes, there are admirers." In the darkness, an icy mocking voice rang out, shattering the silence of the night. Qiyun looked back, it was Leng Jue, frowned and said, "It turned out to be Leng Zhang, when did you care so much about Qiyun's affairs?" ”
"I am, a native of Jiankang Danyang, Lu Huinan." Leng Yu once again emphasized her new identity.
Qiyun raised her eyebrows, her eyes were playful, and she said, "Oh? Miss Lu didn't know what she liked about Jiankang, so she was willing to leave and merge with the state? Jiankang is merry, and he is careful to lose his eyes. Qiyun is familiar with Jiankang and can be Miss Lu's guide. ”
Lu Huinan's face was even colder: "This is not the business of the county lord." Don't forget, you have also received the favor of our palace master. ”
Qiyun hesitated and persuaded: "Miss Lu, please rest assured, I will not block your way." But only if it ...... Don't make trouble. ”
Lu Huinan scoffed at Qiyun's advice, and said with a warning in his eyes: "Hmph, can you block my way? In the Song Kingdom, you and I are on someone else's territory, don't use your identity as the county lord to impeach me. ”
"Yun'er, it's so late, why don't you go to rest? Who are you talking to? Yilong stepped out of the cabin and asked gently.
When Lu Huinan saw that it was him, the frost on his face faded, and Ying Ying said, "Miss Qiyun is chatting with me about interesting things on the road. ”
Qiyun glanced at her and said to Yilong: "Yes, we were talking about some interesting things during the trip, but I didn't expect Miss Lu to be a well-traveled and well-informed person. ”
"What interesting story were you talking about?" Yilong was a little interested and asked with a smile.
Qiyun remembered that the first time she saw her and Mochuan was in Hukou of the Yellow River, so she replied casually: "We are talking about Hukou Waterfall, which is the greatest wonder in the world. Brother Yilong, you must go to see the magnificent scenery when you have the opportunity in the future, so that this life will be in vain. ”
"The Hukou of the Yellow River is in the Central Plains of Jiangbei, and I don't know when I will be able to go to the road in this life." Yilong sighed, and suddenly asked Lu Huinan, "Miss Lu has also been to Jiangbei?" ”
"Hui Nan followed his father in business and traveled all over the world since he was a child, but he had less time to return to Jiangnan. Although the home is in Danyang, it is very strange to Jiankang. Therefore, when I arrived, I had the opportunity to go to Jiankang, and I wanted to ask the prince to lead Huinan to have a play, I don't know if it is possible? ”
"Let's talk about it!" Yoshitaka saw that she was a little eager, and responded to her indifferently. Lu Huinan smiled and said: "I saw that the prince's cheeks were red, his breath was short, his mouth was dry, and he seemed to have an old stubborn disease. The prince seems to have heart yin deficiency and fatigue, also known as heart blood. Once you have an attack, the heartache is unbearable, right? ”
"You actually know how to heal?" Yoshitaka was a little surprised to see that she was young and could see his old illness for many years.
"When Hui Nan was young, he was often sick, and doctors often came and went at home, so he became a doctor after a long illness."
"I didn't expect that you are also a person who has been suffering from illness for a long time." Yilong felt sympathy for the same illness and no longer looked at her.
