However, he said that Xu Xuan went to the government office to say goodbye to Chen Lun, and asked someone who was familiar with the yamen to find an honest shipman, paid a deposit, and agreed on an hour. He returned to the security hall.

Xu Xuan couldn't help but be imprudent, the ancients often said that the car and boat shop should be killed if they are not guilty, these people in the industry are not necessarily bad people, but some people, most of them are engaged in some gray industries, if they are accidentally used by the other party, they will not have time to cry at that time, although his wife will spell, but how can there be a thousand days to prevent thieves, or find the official government to record the roots of the duty to know the truth.

In the security hall, Bai Suzhen had already informed Xiaoqing that she was going back to Qiantang with Xu Xuan, but Xiaoqing's cultivation was not enough, and she had been messing around in this world for a long time, and she was afraid that her cultivation would regress, so Bai Suzhen did not dare to let her come back.

It's just that when Xu Xuan and Bai Suzhen packed up their things at night, they only heard a knock on the door, and then Xiaoqing's voice of scolding the five ghosts came, Xiaoqing walked in angrily, and as soon as he entered the door, he crossed his waist and said to Xu Xuan, "Hmph, did you let my sister not take me back with you?" “

And behind him, the five ghosts stood in a row tremblingly, looking at Xu Xuan, they all smiled bitterly, "Xu Guanren, don't look at us, we don't dare to stop the young girl, you don't know how powerful she is"

Bai Suzhen reached out and grabbed Xiaoqing's arm at this time, "Okay Qing'er, I won't let you go to Qiantang because I have seen your cultivation regress recently, and I want you to consolidate it in the mountains, but it is not the intention of the official."

Xiaoqing looked at Bai Suzhen suspiciously, "Is this really the case?" Sister, don't you want to lie to me? ”

Bai Suzhen couldn't help but chuckle, "What did I lie to you about?" If you really want to go back with us, then go back."

Hearing Bai Suzhen say this, Xiaoqing suddenly laughed happily, "I know that my sister is the best"

Xu Xuan looked at Xiaoqing, who was quickly overcast, and couldn't help shaking his head, he still didn't understand now, Xiaoqing was angry at himself when he came in, that was deliberate, this girl can be regarded as finding the weakness of her own lady.

But he said that on the morning of the second day, when Xu Xuan and his party came to the dock, the boatman saw two people yesterday, but there were six more people today, and he was not very satisfied, but after Xu Xuan gave enough silver taels, and there were still a few empty rooms on the ship, he was not good at what to say. It's just that the people at the dock sent a few more generations of vegetables, rice, and meat, and then they drove away.

However, it is precisely because of Bai Fu's young and strong family members who got on the boat that it invisibly broke the minds of many people, after all, the communication in this era is not effective, and when it comes to a deserted place on the river where there are no people, it is easy to destroy the corpse after hijacking the ship and killing people, but if there are many people on the other side, those robbers will have to weigh one or two.

Going south along the waterway, it is really as Bai Suzhen said, it is much more stable than the carriage, and there is a bed, people can lie down and rest, Xu Xuan is idle, got off the cabin and began to sort out the gifts for other people home, where does my sister naturally want, where can the master be missing, the teacher Cheng Fang does not know if he is still in Qiantang No, if he is, this year's goods are also indispensable, there are others such as Yang Zhixian, this old man has been sitting in this position for many years, and he also has a great energy. Xu Xuan put a note on these divided New Year's goods, and then went out of the cabin.

When he came to the deck, he saw Xiaoqing sitting on the side of the boat, looking at the sparkling river in a daze, looking at Xiaoqing, who was usually naughty and pungent, and now his demure appearance, Xu Xuan was a little uncomfortable, he was stunned, and came to Xiaoqing's side, "Xiaoqing, what are you doing here?" It's windy and the sun is poisonous, so it's not good to get a tan."

Xiaoqing heard someone talking behind him, and stood up from this deck, and saw clearly that it was Xu Xuan, but his face was red, and he didn't talk back to Xu Xuan for the first time, turned around and ran into Bai Suzhen's room, without being coldly spoken by Xiaoqing, but it made Xu Xuan a little uncomfortable, "What's wrong with Xiaoqing's girl?" ”

Xu Xuan was puzzled, he couldn't understand the little girl's thoughts, at this time it was already winter in the south, the south was warmer, although it was not the same as the north, the river was frozen in winter, but the air in the south was humid, in winter, no matter how thick the clothes were, there was already a feeling of cold wind biting, although Xiaoqing was also a cultivated snake demon, she didn't need to hibernate, but in the cold winter, the snakes were too lazy to move, why did this girl chase herself home? Xu Xuan faintly thought of something, but he didn't want to think about it.

At this time, the waterway of the Great Song Dynasty was developed, and a number of canals had been dug to link up a number of rivers, although it was not as terrifying as the railway transportation in later generations, but it was better than the land transportation of goods. Therefore, most of the freight in the south does not rely on land. Therefore, the boat Xu Xuan took on this way was not alone, but it was quite lively. The boat traveled safely, passing through the dangerous waters mentioned by the boat boss, and there was no imaginary roadblock robbery.

In Xu Xuan's view, one possibility is that the imperial court has recently begun to mobilize troops to the north, and the entire river is full of northbound fleets. The other one, it may also be because Bai Fu and a few other family members on the ship got on the ship, so that the robbers extinguished their intention to hijack the ship.

Because this ship is not only carrying Xu Xuan's family, but similar to the train in the city, carrying people and goods, every time you arrive in a city, there are people and goods on and off the ship, naturally it will not be like a private boat, go straight to the nearest route, they did not walk from Taihu Lake, but went around Huzhou through Deqing through Lin'an, and finally unloaded part of the cargo carried by the ship boss in Lin'an City, which is also the terminal of this ship.

Xu Xuan asked the ship boss about the time of Lin'an after the New Year, thanks to the war in the north, the ship boss coveted the high freight of the imperial court, and he would sail after the Lantern Festival after the New Year, the ship boss was indeed honest, so Xu Xuan still planned to take their ship back to Suzhou after the year, he finally laid such a big foundation in Suzhou City, he didn't want to give up.

Qiantang is the attached Guo County of Lin'an City, the distance is not far, although the morning is sunny, but the weather is still cold, Bai Suzhen is pregnant again, Xu Xuanke is reluctant to let Bai Suzhen walk back, so Bai Fu found two carriages, negotiated the price, and then drove their group of people, towards Qiantang County squeaky and quack.

When he walked to Nancheng, Xu Xuan shouted to stop the carriage, Bai Suzhen was very tired, and was lying on the cushion of the carriage at this time, when he saw the carriage stop, he asked suspiciously, "Official, have you arrived in Qiantang so soon?" ”

Xu Xuan smiled: "How can it be so fast?" It's just that when I arrived in Lin'an, I always had to see the old people."

Bai Suzhen sat up with a strong spirit: "Who does the official want to see?" ”

Xu Xuan looked at the familiar scenery of Nancheng and smiled, "When we arrive in Nancheng, why do we have to meet our witness, Dr. Su?" ”

Hearing Xu Xuan say this, Bai Suzhen's face turned red, "Ah, Doctor Su, I'll go with you, Doctor Su helped us a lot at the beginning."

Xu Xuan nodded, Dr. Su did help him a lot at the beginning, especially when he was framed by Liang Da and others, if it wasn't for Dr. Su to help him, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been able to get out so easily. It's just that at the beginning, he was worried about the trouble of Liang Taishi and others looking for Dr. Su afterwards, so he sent more than 1,000 taels of Liang Wangfu who framed him at the beginning to Lin'an, but he came to Suzhou later, and he didn't know what happened to Dr. Su.
