This idea that scared Qiao Yue had just come together, and it was immediately nipped in the bud by Qiao Yue, this is not a good sign, using killing to solve problems is always a butcher's means, not to mention that there is no impermeable wall for anything, since you have done it yourself, only bravely facing it is the right way.

The small boat is swaying and floating on the Ningzhou River, the river water after the heavy rain is very turbid, occasionally you can see some withered branches floating on it, the green mountains on both sides of the river and the holes after the flash flood, compared to the beautiful Ningzhou River before, this time is really not beautiful at all.

Geng Huyuan stayed quietly at the bow of the boat, perhaps knowing that Qiao Yue was in a bad mood, he was very quiet when he talked to the boatman, and he was afraid that his young lady would not have good fruits to eat.

The boatman occasionally slid the oars and followed the current, just constantly dialing the direction of the boat, anyway, the person who hired the boat was not in a hurry, and he didn't need to hurry, and he would always reach the mouth of the Shunjiang River if he went down the water.

"Are you all from Ningzhou?"

During the boring journey, the boatman habitually accosted Geng Huyuan.

"En" Geng Huyuan sighed and turned his gaze from the direction of the cabin, "Ningzhou people, native Ningzhou people!" ”

The boatman glanced into the cabin and asked in a low voice, "Are those two in there your young lady?" It seems that you are also a rich family, and when the two young ladies go out, you should still bring more people, if there is any situation, you can't cope with any of them. ”

Geng Huyuan smiled helplessly, did not answer, turned his eyes, stared at the mountains on both sides with concern, and stopped talking, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.

The boatman's face stiffened and smiled, seeing that Geng Huyuan had no intention of talking to him to pass the time. He stopped looking for words, and always felt that these three people were very strange from the young lady to the next person, and there was no superfluous word along the way.

Drifting along the Ningzhou River, the boat was about to arrive at the mouth of the Shunjiang River at noon the next day, the boatman stood on the bow and looked at it, his face showed a sense of relief, he said: "The front is the mouth of the Shunjiang River." Ever since the government leveled the strongmen of Black Cliff Mountain and Shenzhaotang. There are more passenger boats passing along the river, and the little old man will send you here..."

After he finished speaking, he didn't wait for Geng Huyuan to report to Qiao Yue in the cabin. The oars shook vigorously a few times, and the boat swayed and prepared to land.

At this time, Qiao Yue, who had been silent in the cabin, finally spoke: "Boatman, let's give it another ride..."

The boatman listened intently for a moment. I didn't see the people inside talking again, and it stands to reason that the guests made a request at this time. The next half sentence should be about money.

Seeing that Qiao Yue didn't speak, the boatman looked at Geng Huyuan in embarrassment, and when he hired the boat, he said that it was Shunjiangkou.

Facing the embarrassed face of the boatman, Geng Huyuan took out a big piece of silver from his sleeve and handed it over without saying a word: "My young lady said that she wanted to take your boat." You just go on..."

After speaking, Geng Huyuan glanced at the quiet cabin with some concern, he had been worried. Ever since Qiao Yue came back from the fishing village on the edge of the South Lake, she had become much more silent.

This time, after the death of the crown prince. She saw that after Qiao Yue came down from Zhiyun Temple, there was an indescribable murderous aura on her body, which made him feel an inexplicable fear in his heart, and the lady who was babbling with the fat girl didn't know when it had gradually changed.

Geng Huyuan felt a little self-blame in his heart, like the subordinates of the entire Qiao Mansion, when Qiao Yue asked them to leave, all the people were very self-blaming in their hearts, they all knew that it was Qiao Yue, a thin woman, who supported the Qiao family, and they knew that it was Qiao Yue who had been protecting the Qiao family and protecting them, but they couldn't help Qiao Yue with anything.

The boatman who took the silver smiled from ear to ear: "Okay, okay, then where are we going now?" ”

Where to go? Geng Huyuan's mind was flustered, and he recalled that this question seemed to have been asked by the second lady yesterday morning, but he didn't get an answer.

After thinking about it, the people who set off first all went to Huaizhou, so we should also go somewhere.

When Geng Huyuan was about to answer, Liu Xing's figure walked out of the cabin.

Geng Huyuan looked up, a calm face suddenly became solemn, only to see that the pink and yellow gauze skirt that Liu Xing wore when she got on the boat was gone, and now it was a slightly white-washed linen clothes, and there were still a lot of patches on the whole body, and a silver pearl on the head was gone, and the bun with the hair curtain turned into two big pigtails, which looked rustic, and there was no feeling of a big lady at all.

Facing Geng Huyuan's puzzled expression, she said: "Sister said, let the boat drift down the water, and where it drifts, we will go." ”

After speaking, Liu Xing stood on the board of the boat and stretched her waist, it seemed that she had been staying in the cabin for a long time, and she wanted to move her muscles and bones.

The boatman looked puzzled, what kind of place is this, the ship that has run for a lifetime, or the first time to meet such a guest, but one thing the boatman knows very well in his heart that the general guest of this kind must be in a very bad mood, and he must not be offended.

Anyway, the money has already been in his hands, and the boatman doesn't say anything anymore, the boat has already entered the Shunjiang River, anyway, as long as he goes down the water, he can't make much effort.

Skillfully rocking the oars, it didn't take a few strokes for the boat to be carried down the river.

The river surface of the Shunjiang River is very wide, but it is not the Ningzhou River that can be compared, the boatman didn't sleep all night last night, and when he put the boat into the center of the Shunjiang River, he didn't need to keep hitting the direction anyway, and the boatman started to nap with the oars.

Geng Huyuan still kept staring at Qiao Yue's cabin, he was also very tired, like the boatman, he didn't sleep all night, always afraid that Qiao Yue wouldn't know when he would call him.

The waves on the wide river surface are much larger than those in the Ningzhou River, and the boat obviously feels that it has to bump a lot when it enters the Shunjiang River, swaying leisurely, a bit like a child's cradle.

Geng Huyuan's eyes didn't know when they closed, people kept looking at something and it was easy to get sleepy, not to mention that the boat was still swaying like a cradle, Geng Huyuan kept repeating the two regular movements of opening and closing his eyes for less than an hour, and finally fell asleep like a boatman.

The boat continued to move along the water, and the snoring of two men on the bow of the boat resounded regularly on the river.

Liu Xing grinned: "Sister, they are all asleep." ”

Qiao Yue's eyes kept staring out the window, looking at the flat land and mountains that were constantly crossing on both sides. The mood was still not good, and only when she saw Liu Xing's innocent smile did her mood calm down a lot.

Like Liu Xing, Qiao Yue also changed into a linen cloth with patched clothes, which looked much more rustic and old-fashioned than Liu Xing. The fair face was smeared with water that had been boiled and diluted with brown sugar. It looks a little sallow and old.

She stared at Liu Xing, slowly untied the silk scarf on her forehead, and an abscess about the size of two thumbs was revealed. She said, "Are you afraid? Does my sister's appearance scare you? ”

Liu Xing's eyes suddenly flashed with two crystal tears, and she opened her small arms to hold Qiao Yue in her arms, and said in a lost voice: "Sister... Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Apricot will cure you later! ”

"It'll be cured!" Such a voice also appeared in the depths of Qiao Yue's mind, and this familiar voice calmed her heart a lot at once. She said: "Some people have said before that they will cure me, but unfortunately my sister has forgotten who this person is." ”

After thinking about it all night, Qiao Yue figured it out, rather than running away. It's better to face it head-on, just like this abscess on your forehead, which has been hidden. It has always grown on itself, and it has not disappeared because of its own hiding. It's just self-deception.

If Xing Yong has to go to the emperor to denounce himself, then he will bear it alone, and he can't involve the eldest brother, Liu Xiang, and Liu Xing, who has become an orphan because of himself.

When she took off the silk scarf, Qiao Yue's heart seemed to have let go of the boulder of her daughter, and the whole person was a lot more relaxed, this is the real self, as for wearing this dress, this is what Qiao Yue looked like in her dreams, and she always dreamed that she was like this in her dreams in the past few days after returning from Nanhu.

I don't know how long I floated along the river, and when the rocking boat was already asleep, even Qiao Yue was asleep, I heard someone shouting eagerly in my dream: "The boat in front, get out of the way, get out of the way..."

"The boat in front, do you hear it, get out of the way..."

……

There was a big passenger ship on the river, and the sailors on the bow were constantly shouting at the small boat blocking the way in front of them, and no one expected that this kind of small boat would also sail into the channel of the big ship.

Following the current, the inertia of the big boat is very large, and it is impossible to stop quickly, and the people on the small boat have not slept all night, and they are asleep at this time, no matter what the people on the big boat call them, the two men who can be seen with the naked eye are lying on the bow of the boat, and there is no sign of waking up at all.

There was a loud bang, sawdust splashed, and the small boat in front of the big ship was suddenly smashed in half by the big ship, and the boatman and Geng Huyuan, who were sleeping on the bow of the boat, were suddenly swept into the Shunjiang River.

The people on the big boat were startled, and hurriedly looked for the two men who fell into the water on the water, and after a while, when the two men came out of the water, the people on the big boat breathed a sigh of relief.

A dark-skinned man cursed and threw a rope under the big ship: "You are looking for death, you run to sleep on it, don't you know that this is the channel of the big ship?" The boat should go to the shallow water on the side. ”

After a while, a lot of people came out of the bow of the big ship, and after taking a look at the situation on the river, everyone kept spitting and scolding angrily: "Don't save them, these two damn things, drown them, stupid..."

The outcropping Geng Nursing Courtyard didn't rush to care about the people on the boat scolding, and looked back at the remaining half of the boat that had been hit, and the boat that had drifted away swam over there like crazy: "Eldest Miss, Second Miss, you can't have anything to do!" ”

The boatman of the small boat also looked at his boat distressedly, but after thinking about it, it was still important to save his life, so he pulled the rope dropped from the big boat and quickly climbed onto the big boat.

The violent impact made Qiao Yue and Liu Xing wake up from their dreams in an instant, and when they looked again, they found that the bow of the ship had been shattered, and the bottom of the board had begun to seep water, and it seemed that the boat would sink in a short time.

When she came out of the cabin with her head sticking out, she saw Geng Huyuan desperately swimming over here, Liu Xing pulled her clothes and shivered, obviously frightened.

I don't know what the boatman said on the big boat, the big boat adjusted its direction slightly and quickly rushed over to Qiao Yue's side.

Finally, there was no danger, and I climbed up along the rope dropped from the big ship, and my feet became stable again.

"Wow... It's ugly..."

"Don't come out and be scary if you're so ugly, wouldn't it be nice to stay at home?"

"Cut, what do you know, people can't get married, and they came out to seek death, and you still came to save her!"

……

When Qiao Yue first boarded the boat, the passengers who were holding back the fire in their stomachs were all looking at them with disgust and mockery.

Even the sailors who rescued Qiao Yue on the ship just now didn't want to look at Qiao Yue any more, and they didn't shy away from spitting in front of Qiao Yue and walked away, shouting bad luck.

The shipwrecked boatman walked over with an ugly face and said, "Little Lao'er's boat was hit and sunk, shouldn't the lady compensate for some losses?" ”

Clenched his fists and was about to get angry Geng Huyuan was about to speak, Qiao Yue waved his hand calmly and pulled Liu Xing to take a few steps inside, it was safer to stay away from the side of the ship.

The shoes were wet, and the pants were also half wet, but fortunately, the salute was still there, and it was enough to find a separate cabin to change.

Raising his head to take a look, he was about to ask who the owner of this ship was and if he could provide a separate cabin, but in Qiao Yue's sight, everyone avoided him as if he was hiding from a plague god.

Geng Huyuan didn't know that after taking out a few more silver cakes and giving them to the boatman, he saw the boatman smiling and no longer making trouble.

Immediately afterwards, Geng Huyuan slapped himself in the face, walked in front of Qiao Yue and knelt down: "Miss, it's all small and bad, so you almost died on this river..."

"Haha... Just her? Miss, phew..."

Without waiting for Qiao Yue to speak, the people around her couldn't stand it anymore, obviously Geng Huyuan's dress was much richer than Qiao Yue, no matter how she looked at it, Qiao Yue didn't look like a young lady, which young lady would be more humble than her subordinates? What's more, it's still such an ugly young lady.

Qiao Yue didn't care about the eyes of the people around her, since she had untied the silk scarf on her forehead, she was ready to face this qiē sneer, she said calmly: "Don't blame you, I'm asleep too, go find a quiet cabin for me and Xing'er!" ”

Hearing Qiao Yue's words, Geng Huyuan's five big and three rough faces cried with a whimper, and his forehead slammed on the board.

Not far away, a man in his twenties, who looked like a rich man, couldn't stand it anymore, so he stepped forward and pointed at Qiao Yue and said viciously: "Ugly monster, do you still want a separate cabin?" Don't pretend in front of the master, believe it or not, the master will throw you into the river to feed the fish now. (To be continued) R466
