Filial piety waited for Guo Chang's luxury boat, along the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal to the south, all the way to the mountains and rivers, the boat to the Qiantang River, all the year turned.

Guo Chang didn't know what to do, behind him, the same big ship, chasing him closely, Wang Jin stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the vast Beijing-Hangzhou Canal, many ships on the river, all of them are merchant ships, grain from the south to the north, Cao Yun artery, the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal is an important hub connecting the north and the south, Wang Jin chased after him for more than ten days, did not see Guo Chang's boat shadow, anxious, he didn't know that Guo Chang was not far from here.

Guo Chang calculated the days, if he didn't hurry up, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to come back before the year, so he ordered the big ship not to stop at the dock and keep going to Qiantang.

After winter, the rain gradually decreased, the weather was fine on this day, Shen Wanzhen planned to swim in the lake, Wu Yulian said hello to the boatman, Shen Wanzhen took Xiuju, Qiao Shan and Qian Pozi, Yan Pozi to the lake outside the town.

Mrs. Qian didn't plan to go, she was worried about lunch, and helped the old woman of the Wu family, but Xiuju and Qiaoshan forced her to come, so she had no choice but to follow, Mrs. Qian went, and her man Qian Kuan also came.

As soon as they went out, there were six people, there were few people in the town, these six people laughed all the way, there were many eyes towards them from far and near, passing by Li's winery, the Li family boy, happened to be in the counter, saw Shen Wanzhen's figure, hurriedly lowered his head, asked the matchmaker to come to the door to ask for marriage, was politely refused, the later life was thin-skinned, and he felt too abrupt in his heart, and he didn't dare to look at Shen Wanzhen more and more.

Shen Wanzhen didn't take this matter to heart, and glanced at the wine shop when she passed by, the Li family descendants were busy squatting and pretending to be busy with something else, and when Shen Wanzhen passed, she stood up straight, greedy for the graceful back, a few people walked through the side street and turned around, blocked by a house and couldn't see, and the Li family retreated her gaze.

When I got out of the town, I saw the shore of the lake, "Master, it seems that I came early, and there are not many tourists swimming in the lake." Qiao Shan said loudly.

Shen Wanzhen saw that there were several boats moored on the shore, one of them was a newly painted red boat, as soon as the boatman saw them, he rocked the boat over and greeted loudly, "Guest officer, is it a relative of Mrs. Zhang's family?" Let's get on board. ”

"Boat man, how long will it take to go around this lake." Mrs. Qian was worried about dinner, and she didn't plan to eat or drink.

"It's half a day!" Mrs. Qian can rest assured that she can rush back at noon to clean up the meal and eat it at home.

Shen Wanzhen got on the boat first, embroidered chrysanthemums and others, and Mrs. Qian was careful and stepped on the wooden plank to come up later.

Qian Kuan knows the nature of the water, helping the boatman to rock, the gallery boat slowly walks on the calm and waveless lake, far from the shore, the lake is getting wider and wider, there is a sense of water and sky, in this winter, there are very few people who swim in the lake, only occasionally there is a gallery boat slowly rowing not far away, Shen Wanzhen vaguely heard a tactful singing, floating out of the passing pleasure boat.

Shen Wanzhen leaned on the red pillars, looking at the quiet lake, the lake water was clean and clear, listening to the sound of fine bamboo floating in the distance, accompanied by the looming Wu Nong tune, indescribably comfortable, the sun was high, and it was much warmer.

The cruise ship has been traveling for an hour, and the lake is surrounded by water, and the shore cannot be seen, at this time, Shen Wanzhen's eyes are inadvertently staring at a large boat, which is approaching their boat, and then Shen Wanzhen finds that two more small boats are approaching in the direction of the cruise ship where she is.

There were suddenly more boats on the quiet lake, Shen Wanzhen leaned lazily, suddenly alert, sat up straight, stared at the big boat, the big boat was obviously their gallery boat, and three or four boats suddenly appeared on the lake, a little farther away, not very real, but they seemed to be coming in their direction.

The big boat was already very close to them, not only Shen Wanzhen, but also Xiuju and a few people found that it was wrong, Yan Pozi kept staring at the boat, this is a very big fishing boat, she found that this boat was very strange, Yan Pozi walked to Shen Wanzhen quietly and whispered: "Master, look, there seems to be someone in ambush in that cabin." ”

Shen Wanzhen watched the sun's light and shadow shine on the hatch of the ship, and there were figures shaking inside, stirring up the light and shadow.

She noticed a middle-aged man at the bow of the boat, looking at her, and when the two boats approached, suddenly, the attendant beside the man shouted to them, "Listen to the boat opposite, stop and don't move." ”

At this time, a lot of attendants suddenly poured out of the cabin, and the boatman of Shen Wanzhen's boat began to think that he had met the robbers, so he rowed the boat desperately into the deep lake.

When the fishing boat saw that their boat was about to run, it bit on the back and shouted: "My lord is an official of the imperial court, and he ordered your boat to stop immediately. ”

The distance between the two boats was very close, and Shen Wanzhen leaned out of half of the pillars of the body, and saw clearly that the person at the bow of the boat was a middle-aged man, dressed in brocade clothes, and his body was slightly blessed, like a high-ranking official of the imperial court.

The official looked at her and said loudly, "It's Miss Shen, right?" This official is the uncle of the dynasty, filial piety, and the queen mother ordered Miss Shen to enter Beijing immediately to meet her, and there must be no mistake. ”

Shen Wanzhen was dizzy for a while, and her heart was not good, she looked around, looking around, it was all water, and she was thinking about how to get out.

Xiuju and Qiaoshan were having a good time, looking at the landscape in the distance, pointing and pointing, and when they found the signs, they were so frightened that they surrounded the master and called out anxiously: "Master, what should I do?" It was the Queen Mother who sent someone to arrest the master. ”

The boatman rowed desperately with Qian Kuan at the bow of the boat, and suddenly found that there were two other boats approaching him, there were many soldiers on the boat, and he couldn't help but panic, this boatman probably had done something hurtful to the heavens and reason, and he didn't see it well, thinking that he had committed something, and the official officials arrested him, threw off the oars in his hands, only to hear the sound of 'goo', jumped into the water, and the boatman abandoned the boat and fled.

Mrs. Qian also panicked and slapped her thigh, "This is really a heavenly master, what kind of cruise ship is you sitting on?" What kind of scenery do you enjoy? There's water all around here, where to run? It's all landlubbers. ”

Shen Wanzhen calmed down at this moment, and said to them: "I do things by myself, and I have nothing to do with you and others." ”

Qian Kuan knew that things were not good, so he swayed desperately, and the corridor boat happened to go down the river and ran thirty or fifty meters at once.

At this time, the officer on the fishing boat lost his patience and disdained to play a game of cat and mouse, and shouted: "Stop the boat, come over, if you don't come over, I will order someone to release the arrows." "This person is none other than Uncle Guo's filial piety and Guo Chang, he shouted that the arrows were also to scare and scare a few people on the ship, the Queen Mother let him take the live, how dare he disobey, but in order to scare the people on the ship, he waved his hand, and many archers poured out of the cabin, occupying the bow of the ship, raising the bow and arrows, and waiting for the Hou Ye to give an order, and then ten thousand arrows were fired.

At this time, the two boats on the back, one of which was close to the boat, the king of the capital commanded the ship to sail quickly, and when he saw that the situation in front of him was imminent, he hurriedly shouted loudly: "Uncle Guo, don't hurt Miss Shen, there is a decree in the saint, Shen is the concubine of King An, take it back to the palace quickly." ”

A little farther away, a big boat was heading towards the gallery boat at full speed, Qiao Shan pointed to the boat in the distance and said, "Look, the one standing on the bow of the boat seems to be Lord An, and the master is saved." ”

Shen Wanzhen smiled bitterly, and said in her heart that she didn't listen to Wang Jin's shout, Shen is the concubine of Wang An, and her status as a concubine is better to die in the water, but it is also clean.

Shen Wanzhen didn't say a word, and hurried to the bow of the boat, and everyone woke up to realize that she was already standing on the side of the boat, and they were all stunned, even the people who came up to the big boat were stunned.

Just when everyone was stunned, Shen Wanzhen flew down and jumped into the water.

After catching up with the big boat, Zhao Shijiao saw her running to the bow of the boat, and urged the boatman to row quickly, but it was too late, and when his boat reached the gallery boat for more than ten meters, Shen Wanzhen jumped into the lake.

Shen Wanzhen jumped into the water, she was like a mermaid underwater, stretching freely, in fact, she was very watery, and the moment she jumped down, a loud shout came from her ears, "Miss Shen." The anxious voice was so familiar and kind, but she had made up her mind and could not care about anything.

Zhao Shijiao saw Shen Xuanzhen jump into the water, so he pounced on the bow of the boat, and was about to jump into the water to save people, but the people behind him waited to hold him and said urgently: "Lord Wang, the water is cold in winter, let the minions save you." ”

Say, 'Goo-dong', a dozen sounds, and I saw figures from several different boats falling into the lake.

Shen Xuanzhen was able to swim in the water in her previous life, but the water was cold in winter, as soon as she got into the water, her body 'swished', it was cold, the water was biting cold, and it was not suitable to stay underwater for a long time.

Shen Wanzhen thought to herself, since the sky is going to kill me, I have to accept my fate, she can't let people know about the water, she is now a beautiful girl, isn't it very strange to know the water, she deliberately choked on two mouthfuls of water, looked at the water with both hands and scratched it, slowly sank towards the water, closed her eyes, let someone save her on the boat, and lay flat on the board.

Zhao Shijiao broke free from the guard's hand, rushed to Shen Wanzhen's side, knelt down and picked her up, and called out repeatedly, "Miss Shen, Miss Shen." ”

Shen Wanzhen was awake, deliberately pretending to be unconscious and not answering, she felt her body lying on her stomach, her head lowered, and she cooperated and spit out two mouthfuls of water.

Lying flat again, Shen Wanzhen keenly felt the rapid man's breathing, blowing on her face, hot, and then, two warm lips met her mouth, Shen Wanzhen really fainted, fainted, and shouted in her heart, Shen Wanzhen, Shen Wanzhen, why are you pretending to be dead? So many people watched, he and you did mouth-to-mouth artificial respiration, this is ancient, don't want to marry in the future, but thinking so in her head, her heart soared, her pulse accelerated, she didn't want to open her eyes, she was afraid that he was in a hurry, she slowly narrowed her eyes, and whispered: "Lord Wang." ”

Zhao Shijiao heard a call, hurriedly stopped his movements, looked at her face in surprise, and hugged her tightly in his arms regardless of anything.

At this time, Guo Chang crossed to King An's big boat, and Wang Jin also crossed this boat.

Xiuju, Qiao Shan, Yan Pozi and Qian Pozi cried and ran onto the boat, "Master, master." Surrounded Shen Wanzhen and cried.

Zhao Shijiao looked at Guo Chang at a glance and put down Shen Xuanzhen, ' Rub 'jumped up, pulled out the sword from his waist, and stabbed at Guo Chang, he moved very fast, everyone reacted, and they didn't dare to stop if they wanted to, Guo Chang would do a few cat claw kung fu, and there was a saber on his waist, but he didn't even dare to pull it out, and the prince did it, and committed it below, it was also a capital crime, and Wang An's eyes were red, and he didn't say a word, he stabbed with a sword, Guo Chang was scared stupid, he instinctively dodged the tip of the sword, and was scared into a cold sweat. "Get in the water."

Guo Chang pampered and usually doesn't know how to water, he was the uncle of King An's mother, seeing that King An's six relatives didn't recognize him, he was really anxious, he was so frightened that he had already retreated to the side of the boat, and he didn't have the courage to jump into the water, listening to Wang Jin's shout, his eyes were closed, he leaned back, and was forced by King An to fall into the water with a 'bang'.

King An put away his sword and watched him flutter under the water with cold eyes, and his anger gradually subsided.

If Uncle Guo dies, King An is the queen mother's own son and is unscathed, but the next person suffers, and all of them have to be buried.

Dutong Wang Jin saw that Shen Wanzhen was soaking wet, and seemed to be weak, and said to An Wangjin: "Lord, Miss Shen is drowning and suffering from the cold, so let's go back to the town first, find a doctor, and wait for her body to recover." ”

It was cold, Shen Wanzhen was in the water, her lips were purple from the cold, she was trembling, she sat down with a few embroidered chrysanthemums, and Zhao Shijiao hurriedly untied Hechang and draped her on her body.

The boat was on the shore, and when it landed, Zhao Shijiao ordered someone to find a shoulder.

Everyone flocked to return to the town, King An, Wang Jin and others followed, and also went to Zhang's house together, Uncle Guo Guo was rescued, and he didn't dare to come to King An, so he looked for a boat to return to the capital first.

Wu Yulian heard the sound of people at the door, looked out of the window, and a bunch of people poured in, and saw Shen Wanzhen soaking wet, even her hair was wet, thinking that Youhu accidentally fell into the water, so she hurriedly ran out, "Sister, what's wrong?" ”

Quickly beckoned Xiuju and the two to help Shen Wanzhen go to the main house, and when they entered the inner room on the kang, Xiuju was about to go to the West Cross Courtyard to get the master's clothes, Wu Yulian saw it and hurriedly stopped, "No need, put on my clothes first." "Let's talk, find out the clothes that you usually wear in the cabinet in the inner room, and the two embroidered chrysanthemums serve Shen Wanzhen and change into dry clothes.

This kung fu, Zhao Shijiao waited in the hall, Wu Yulian moved the charcoal brazier to the kang, and found a thick quilt for Shen Wanzhen to surround it, Shen Wanzhen sat on the kang and surrounded the thick quilt to warm up, Wu Yulian touched her head and it was not hot, so she put her mind down, freed up her mind, and complained: "Why are you not careful, the water is cold in winter, how good is it to fall into frost, it is not worrying." ”

Shen Wanzhen thought in her heart that Zhao Shijiao must be waiting outside, and said in a low voice, "He is still outside." ”

She heard the sound of movement in the outer room, and she could hear the footsteps being him, afraid that he would be anxious.

Wu Yulian suddenly understood that she was not stumbling into the water today, King Anyang was kind to her, he saved her, she had seen it, Shen Wanzhen said some things between the two vaguely, and in the chaos, she just glanced at King An in a hurry, and did not have time to speak in a hurry.

Wu Yulian saw that she was still thinking about King Anyang at this time, winked at her a few times, pursed her lips and smiled, and pushed open the door, sure enough, Zhao Shijiao heard the door open, and asked anxiously, "How is Miss Shen?" The king has ordered a doctor to be called, and he will be there in a moment. ”

Wu Yulian looked at his anxious appearance and was inexplicably moved, bowed, and said: "Don't worry, my sister is fine, it's good to warm up for a while, if the prince is not at ease, go in and have a look." ”

At this time, the outsider said loudly: "Go back to the prince, the doctor has arrived." ”

There is only one Lang Zhong in this town, he is not young, his beard is a little gray, he heard that the prince invited, he didn't dare to slack off, his shoes were not put on, and he rushed over in a hurry, and saw a rather imposing man standing in the door, and he heard the prince call, and he was so frightened that he was about to kneel, Zhao Shijiao waved his hand hurriedly, "That's it, come into the house to see the patient." ”

Lao Lang Zhonggang bent his knees and hurriedly stood up straight, and when Xiuju heard that the doctor was invited, he hurriedly opened the curtains, and the doctor hurried in.

King An didn't worry about it and followed up.

Shen Wanzhen sat on the kang, covering the thick quilt, and roasting on the brazier in front of her, holding a small stove in her arms, her face was flushed with heat, and fine beads of sweat oozed from the tip of her nose.

Lao Langzhong didn't dare to delay, he hurriedly stepped forward to ask for a pulse, Xiuju moved over the chair, Lao Langzhong sat down, and carefully asked for a pulse, Wu Yulian turned around, and saw Zhao Shijiao staring nervously at the old Langzhong's face, his nose was a little sour, and he thought, how ruthless Shen Wanzhen was, and gave up such a good man.

The doctor finished asking for the pulse, stood up, and made a big salute to King An, "Old man back to the prince, this girl has a strong body and bones, and there is no big problem." ”

Zhao Shijiao looked at him suspiciously, frowned, and asked rhetorically, "This girl has a strong body?" ”

"Back to the prince, this girl has a weak appearance, good body bones, and a good foundation, the prince can rest assured, you don't need to take the medicine, it's just a little cold, drink a bowl of ginger soup, and go to the cold."

Zhao Shijiao was slightly relieved, Wu Yulian hurriedly went to the stove and instructed the mother-in-law who was cooking to cook ginger soup, Qiaoshan was clever and ghostly, and walked out, her eyes signaled to embroider chrysanthemum, and embroidered chrysanthemum silently, and gently pulled the lattice door.

Zhao Shijiao walked to the kang, reached out to grab Shen Wanzhen's hand from the quilt, and held it, Shen Wanzhen's little hand was warm and warm.

When the two met, the atmosphere had been tense, Shen Wanzhen didn't have time to take a closer look, at this moment the two faced each other closely, Shen Wanzhen saw that his eye sockets were deep, his face was not good, he was a little haggard, and he couldn't say how distressed, and said softly: "The prince is in a hurry these days, and he hasn't slept well, so let's go down and rest!" ”

Zhao Shijiao sat on the edge of the kang, hugged Shen Wanzhen over, and held him in his arms, "Why are you looking for death?" If you don't want to be my concubine, you will seek death? ”

How could Shen Xuanzhen explain that she was not looking for death, she wanted to escape, and she couldn't bear to lie to him, so she didn't say anything.

"I won't let you be my concubine, marry you as a wife for fear of wronging you, don't you know how much I cherish you? Let you go, do you want to make you happy, how are you doing? ”

This made Shen Wanzhen ask, are you happy? If happiness is when the heart is empty, it seems to be unsettled.

Shen Wanzhen shook her head and whispered, "I don't know what to do." ”

Zhao Shijiao hated it very much, lowered his head, lightly bit her ear and lips with his teeth, and said in her ear: "But I'm not good, I don't think about tea and dinner all day long, it's always your shadow in front of me, did God send you to torture me?" ”

Shen Wanzhen lay on his shoulder and said in a low voice: "I'm not good either." ”

"Sister, the ginger soup is ready."

Wu Yulian informed, the two were busy parting, when Wu Yulian entered the house, Shen Wanzhen was sneering, her face flushed, avoiding her eyes, Wu Yulian said with a smile: "The prince waits for my sister to drink!" My sister won't bother. ”

Deliberately dodging out of the gang, Zhao Shijiao sat on the edge of the kang with a bowl, took a spoonful, saw the ginger soup steaming, blew it gently with his mouth, and his lips hit the spoon again, to make sure it was not hot, and then sent it to her mouth, Shen Wanzhen's thin lips opened slightly, took a small sip, lowered her head, the tears in her eyes were about to fall, her nose was sour, and the mosquito voice was weak: "Let me do it myself." ”

Seeing that his hands and feet were a little clumsy, but he tried his best to do a good job, she said in her heart, he is usually a palace attendant, and when he waits for someone.

He had no choice but to hand the bowl to her, watched her drink, and instructed, "Be careful, don't burn your mouth, it's still hot." ”

Shen Wanzhen glanced at him, and said coquettishly: "I don't know how to eat, do you want the prince to worry about it like this?" ”

Let's say, 'poof' smiled, Zhao Shijiao also smiled, the two looked at each other and smiled, the hut was full of sweetness and warmth.

After drinking the ginger soup, Zhao Shizhen took the bowl, put it on the table, pulled a pillow from the kang, gently put Shen Wanzhen down, and covered the quilt, Shen Wanzhen felt sorry for him that he hadn't slept well these days, so he pretended to close his eyes, pouted, and muttered: "Go and rest, I can't sleep in my lord." ”

Zhao Shizhen tucked the quilt corner for her again, and then walked out of the inner room, Wu Yulian was guarding there in the hall, Xiuju and Qiaoshan She let them down, and Shen Wanzhen couldn't rest well when there were too many people.

She walked to the door, holding on to the door frame, and saw the little girl at the door of the wing, and hurriedly greeted her, and the little girl ran over, "Grandma is in trouble?" ”

"Clean up the house of Xiao Gongzi in the East Cross Courtyard." I thought to myself, it seems that King Anyang is going to live here today, and it just so happens that Xiao Gongzi has not come back, so he will let him live in the East Cross Courtyard for the time being, so it is cheaper to move around.

The little maid said, "I just cleaned up in the morning, and the house is very clean." ”

Wu Yulian nodded, just turned around, saw Zhao Shijiao walking out of the room, and said with a smile; "My sister is cold today, it's better to live first, recuperate for two days, it's not too late to leave when the body is better, the women's houses are simple, there are two empty houses, if the prince doesn't dislike it, he will deign to cross the courtyard in the east, and the bedding will be clean."

"Then it's troublesome ma'am."

"If the woman hadn't been rescued by the prince that day, Huangquan Road would have gone far a long time ago, and there was no way to repay the prince for this little thing." Wu Yulian said, deeply blessed.

"Madame doesn't have to talk about the past." Zhao Shijiao originally wanted to see Shen Wanzhen's face and save her, but it was a trivial matter.

"Lord Wang, please." Wu Yulian raised the curtain and respectfully let Zhao Shijiao go first.

Zhao Shijiao rested in the East Cross Courtyard, he barely slept for a few days, and he had another false alarm, and now his eyes were a little unable to open, and he began to think about Shen Wanzhen all the time, and he fell asleep in a daze when he thought about it.
