There was the sound of rushing water by the window, and the rain hitting the window.

A Tsing Yi entourage quietly put a few books on a few cases, and quietly retreated.

A slender hand picked up a book and flipped through it.

There was laughter in the cabin.

"Your Highness, do you guess why the second lady of the Xie family was driven to Yushan and locked up?" The scribe smiled, looking across with a document in his hand.

On the other side, the king of Dongping County reclined and flipped through a book in his hand.

"Disobedience." He didn't raise his head when he heard this, and said, "I seriously injured the eldest lady." ”

The scribe smiled.

For the prince of Dongping, who had seven cousins, this kind of sibling rivalry was commonplace.

"These two young ladies actually pushed the eldest lady into the water." He said, "I really can't see that this second lady is so fierce." ”

"Can't you see?" The king of Dongping asked rhetorically.

If you are not fierce, how can you beat Zhou Chengzhen like that.

The scribe laughed, and looked down at the paperwork again.

"It is said that the second lady tried in vain to replace the eldest sister, so she made a black hand." He said, saying and sighing, "No wonder she gave birth to such a mind, siblings, the slightest difference, missed that position, so Emperor Sejong decided not to keep that child, otherwise there would be a brotherly rebellion." ”

"It was said that the Xie family was also going to drown one at the beginning." Dongping County King said.

With that, he threw the paperwork back into his hand.

The scribe looked up at him in displeasure.

"Your Highness doesn't see it?" He asked.

"Nothing to see." Dongping County King said.

It's really nothing to see, it's nothing more than those competing interests, small families have small households, and big mansions have big mansions and high doors.

These other people's affairs have nothing to do with them, but the king of Dongping suddenly wants to see it, so people are in a hurry to find it, and they feel bored when they find it.

It is not often that His Highness thinks of a play like this.

Probably because the boat ride is too boring.

The scribe continued to look at the paperwork.

"This second lady has always been of bad character." He said casually, "If you don't learn anything, you can oppress your sisters." ”

The king of Dongping County hummed, pushed open the window with one hand, and the drizzle drifted in with the wind, and the river surface was dotted.

"If you don't learn and don't have skills, you can oppress your sisters, and it doesn't necessarily have anything to do with your conduct." He said casually.

Some people are born to be bad at reading, some people are born not to get along with their sisters and brothers, and it cannot be said that they are just bad character.

The scribe groaned.

"Every day at home, he is also domineering and disrespectful." He continued.

The king of Dongping County hummed.

"There may be another reason for being domineering and disrespectful." He said.

For example, when the general Zhu Fengchun scolded his father in front of the city gate, he was to tell his brother where the evidence of the ink corruption case he found was hidden.

The scribe smiled and put down the paperwork in his hand.

"Your Highness is saying good things for the second lady of the Xie family?" He asked with a smile.

Have it?

The king of Dongping frowned slightly.

"I'm just saying that there are no absolutes in the world, and it's all about others." "Just listen to it," he said. ”

"That's right, the Xie family's sisters' conduct and the Xie family's internal house have nothing to do with us." The scribe smiled, "As long as they are the Xie clan of the Great Wu Qing Dynasty, producing cinnabar, and paying tribute to Xiangrui, it is enough." ”

King Dongping didn't speak, still looking out the window.

But did that stupid girl really do something like that?

On the river where the raindrops were getting denser, a boat suddenly caught up from behind, and more than 20 boatmen were rowing hard in their robes and hats.

The hull of the ship looked inconspicuous, but the bamboo curtains hanging from the windows rolled up, revealing that the windows inside were actually made of glass, and at this time, behind the glass windows, a girl was looking out against the windows.

Her face is white and pink, her eyes are bright, and she is more and more delicate like a flower against the background of the glass.

It's just that at this time, the flower seems to be pressed against the glass, making her face and nose flattened, looking weird and funny.

The king of Dongping County was stunned.

Then the face widened, apparently seeing him as well.

It's even funnier.

The king of Dongping County snorted and laughed.

The face of the glazed queen seemed to be frightened and swished away from the window, but the next moment it was pasted again, closer than before, showing a more strange countenance.

Is this a provocation?

Wang Wan'er, Dongping County.

But in the blink of an eye, the ship had gone and disappeared from sight.

"Ah, that's the second lady of the Xie family's boat, what's the matter?" the scribe also saw it and leaned over to look out.

An attendant came in from outside.

"Master Xie said that Second Miss Xie's boat will go first, and I hope His Royal Highness will forgive me." He said.

"What are you doing so fast on this rainy day?" The scribe was surprised and asked, "How dangerous." ”

"It is said that the second lady likes to sail on a fast boat in the rain." The attendant said.

The scribe stood up and opened the hatch to see the ship in front of him like an arrow speeding on the water, and because he had passed the official ship, the shipwrights were not afraid to disturb the nobles and began to chant trumpets.

It rained so heavily, and used such a boatman to move quickly.

"The character of the second young lady is really ......," said the scribe, shaking his head.

The king of Dongping looked out of the cabin, listening to the melodious and rapid boatman's horn coming in high and low, and let the boat go smoothly and quickly in the rain.

"Is it okay to row the boat so fast?" He asked.

"It's okay." The scribe said, "The people of the Xie family don't care, how can they indulge their children when driving on the river." ”

The rain on the river was getting more and more urgent, and the hats could not cover it, and the vision of the boatmen was a little blurred.

Shao Mingqing heard the footsteps behind him, closed his eyes and waved his hand.

"Come in, get in, it's raining heavily." He said.

But what he said was in vain, one hand grabbed his sleeve, and he stood up with a slight lean.

"The boat also sings the trumpet." Xie Roujia said with a smile.

"Of course." Shao Mingqing said, "There are many kinds, there are slow boats when it is gentle, creepers in the turbulence, lapuns in the downwind, and anchor numbers when the ship is about to stop in the wind and waves." ”

"How do you know so much?" Xie Roujia asked with a smile.

"Most of my family's salt is shipped out by guò water." Shao Mingqing said with a smile, "I followed my father on the boat a few times. ”

Xie Roujia looked at the boatmen again, their movements slowed down, and the sound of the horn began to weaken.

"It's raining too much, and I can't go that fast." Shao Mingqing said, looking back at the cabin, "Can Jiangling still hold on?" ”

Xie Roujia frowned.

To persevere is to suffer more sins.

She couldn't help but take a few steps forward, and the rain quickly soaked her clothes.

"You don't wear a coat either..."Shao Mingqing frowned and said, before the words fell, he heard Xie Roujia open his mouth and follow the boatmen to shout a trumpet.

She's going to sing the boatman's horn?

Shao Mingqing swallowed what he was about to say.

He couldn't be clearer about how well Xie Roujia's horn sang, as long as she sang it, the mine was like a white wave.

However, can the shipwright be the same as the mine number?

"It's dark."

The female voice grew higher than the voices of the boatmen.

The boatmen's coughs became her response.

"It's dark...... Ahem. ”

"The big waves are coming...... Ahem. ”

"Pedaling on the ground...... Ahem. ”

"Hand on the sand...... Ahem. ”

"Earn your money back...... Ahem. ”

"If you want to take care of your family....... cough and yell."

With this singing, the boatmen's slowed down movements gradually accelerated, and everyone couldn't help but smile when they heard that they had to take care of their families to earn their money back.

Kick on the ground, put the sand in your hands, earn back money, take care of your family, take care of your family, and take care of your family.

They paddled hard, and the female voice in their ears became louder and louder, and the rhythm became faster and faster.

The wind seems to have lightened, and the rain doesn't seem to be as heavy.

"When you encounter a rapid, don't stay."

"Brothers, tighten the rope."

"Bend down and put the boat together."

…………………………………………………………

"Your Highness."

The scribe lifted the curtain and came in.

Because of the wind and rain, the window has been closed, and the documents piled up on several cases have long disappeared.

"Your Highness, the second lady of the Xie family's boat is gone." The scribe said.

It's gone?

What is the meaning?

King Dongping put down the book in his hand.

"It was very stormy, we all slowed down, they used to be not far from us, but now we can't see it." The scribe said, his expression a little solemn, "There won't be an accident, right?" ”

King Dongping smiled.

"If something happens, it won't sink so fast." He said.

That's right, too.

"But where did they go?" The scribe asked.

"Far away, of course." King Dongping said and continued to pick up the book.

Of course, the scribe thought about going far.

But.

"It's impossible, it's too fast." He said.

King Dongping smiled.

"There are so many impossible things in this world." "Anything is possible," he said. ”

…………………………………………………

There was silence on the pier, only the wind and rain.

The grass hut not far away was crowded with people, some were laughing, some were playing cards, noisy and lively.

"I don't think I can get there today, and I must have broken down halfway." One said, looking at the rain outside and the vast river.

In order to welcome the official ships entering Beijing, this wharf has been emptied three days in advance, and the shopkeepers and ordinary people of the Xie family have also been waiting for three days.

"Looks like you'll have to wait a day." Another said.

Before the words fell, I heard someone's voice.

"The ship is coming!"

It's funny again.

The entourage of them who came to find out the news had already made a lot of jokes about it, and they didn't bother to pay attention to it.

"No, it's coming! There really is a ship coming! ”

Really?

Someone looked out, and sure enough, he saw a boat on the vast river.

But there is only one.

"Is it a ship that has come to anchor and shelter from the storm?" Someone asked.

This statement was immediately denied.

"Impossible, I have been told to intercept it many days in advance, and there will be no other ships coming."

As they spoke, the ship got closer and closer, and everyone couldn't help but stand up, and soon saw the flag flying on the ship.

Thank.

The Xie family's boat!

There was chaos in the grass hut all of a sudden, and they rushed to the dock without caring about holding an umbrella and wearing a robe.

"No need to tell anyone else, this is our second miss's boat." The steward said loudly.

Second Miss.

The people on the dock stopped running around and looked at the people getting off the boat.

A little girl was hugged and walked down, her body and face were covered by a cloak and hat, and everyone didn't dare to look at it and lowered their heads.

"Let's go to the post station first, you wait here, the emperor's envoy and the eldest lady are behind, and we may not be able to arrive today." The steward said to everyone.

I may not be able to arrive today, and the attendants are busy asking for details, but no one pays attention to the little girl.

They asked, and there was a noise from the boatmen over there.

"It's only this hour? How so? ”

"How did we go so fast?"

These words caught everyone's attention, and they couldn't help but look over.

"Haven't you always been faster than the fleet?" Someone asked.

The boatmen shook their heads.

"We're halfway through."

I talked about the location on the side.

These words made the audience suddenly make an uproar.

"Impossible! Then how did you go so fast! ”

"Isn't it windy and raining on the river?"

When the commotion behind him came, Xie Roujia had already gotten into the carriage and walked along the main road of the dock towards the post station, and had just walked a short distance before the carriage stopped suddenly.

"What people!"

With the shouts of his followers.

Someone is in the way?

Martial law is already on the docks, who can stand in the way?

Xie Roujia frowned, and the thought flashed before she heard it.

"Xie Roujia! Come out! ”

This sound!

Xie Roujia lifted the curtain of the car suddenly, and saw a person riding in the rain and fog ahead.

The cloak covered his face, but Xie Roujia still recognized it at a glance.

Zhou Chengzhen!

Why did this guy get here?

Didn't Shao Mingqing say that he was recuperating from his injuries in Yushan?

The horse neighed, Xie Roujia's eyes fell on Zhou Chengzhen's horse, and she sat up in the car suddenly, with surprise on her face.

Little Red Horse! Little Red Horse!

"Xie Roujia, come out." Zhou Chengzhen shouted again, and walked towards this side with a clamp on the horse's belly.

Xie Roujia snorted, stretched out her hand to her mouth and whistled.

The little red horse neighed and raised its front hooves, but stopped before it could take a step.

The knife in Zhou Chengzhen's hand was horizontal on the horse's head.

"Little brute, if you dare to gang up with others to trap me again, I will kill you immediately." He said coldly.

Little brute!

Xie Roujia scolded in her heart, and jumped out with a pull of the car curtain. R1152
