August 16, Sanchai River Wharf.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival in Nanzong, Sun Shaozong politely refused the retention of his uncles and brothers, and prepared to sail north with Wang Ren, Xue Zhen, Xing Zhong and others.

On the morning of this day, more than a dozen sailors shuttled back and forth, filling a three-masted ship.

The ship naturally belongs to the Wang family, and now his family has the Southeast City Shipping Division, and it can be said that it is easy to get a few good cargo ships.

However, the goods loaded on the ship are basically Sun Shaozong's things - not any precious items, most of them are special products of Huguang and Jinling, the former was obtained in Wuxi, and the latter was basically a gift from Nanzong.

Of course, the official eunuchs and gentry in Jinling City are indispensable to have a relationship, and there are some miscellaneous things in it.

However, the valuables among them have already been returned by Sun Shaozong, and the remaining few are really heartfelt, and they have also entrusted Nanzong to pay the same amount of silver.

In the past two years, he has been through Wuxi and made a few windfalls, and now he is about to use it when he sees it, how can he make a mistake in such a small profit?

Saying......

After returning to Beijing, although it is said to be of great use, according to Sun Shaozong's own analysis, it is estimated that the errand of the Fusi of Beizhen will not fall on him.

As for the reason, it is naturally because Emperor Guangde has not been able to give birth to a son to this day, and the crown prince has united many nobles in the court according to Sun Shaozong's original instructions.

Because of this, although he has not seen each other for two years, the prince has never forgotten Sun Shaozong's contributions.

Every once in a while, he would always send a few letters from the capital, either complaining or asking for countermeasures, as if Sun Shaozong was the number one confidant - of course, the most sent letters to Sun Shaozong was the 'mysterious woman' who took the name of Ping'er.

And the collusion between the crown prince and Sun Shaozong, others may not know what it is, but how can they hide it from the emperor?

Based on this alone, the throne of the pacification envoy will definitely not fall on Sun Shaozong's head - even if he is the only son, the emperor will never allow the crown prince to interfere in the secret service.

Of course, Sun Shaozong would never reveal the inside story of these palaces to Wang Ren and the gentry in Jinling City, and he pretended to be confused.

Without further ado.

However, he said that because he was afraid of being hit by those sailors, he rushed into the female dependents, so in the process of loading the luggage, several families waited on the dock first.

So inevitably, Wang Ren came to him again and provoked the conversation.

In terms of appearance, this Wang Ren can be regarded as dignified, but unfortunately he only has some chicken bits and pieces in his stomach, and the things that are serious are really limited.

But he still always thinks that he is a general's tiger, and he is not inferior to his father, so he has to scold Fang Xuan there, saying nonsense that is either out of reality or picking up people's teeth.

And these words, I heard them all the time I drank last time!

So Mo said that Sun Shaozong was over, and even Xue Zhen couldn't help but feel a little bored between his eyebrows.

At this time, Uncle Xing's benefits were revealed, and Baba stretched his neck, as if he had heard these high-minded talks for the first time.

No wonder Wang Ren looks down on him in his bones, but prefers to take him with him.

"That's right."

was having a perfunctory match, and suddenly heard Wang Ren's words turn around: "Brother, I heard that although those barbarian girls are a little worse in appearance, they are full of wildness and the most repellent. ”

Seeing his handsome face, the word 'obscene' suddenly seeped out from the inside out, and Sun Shaozong couldn't help but be a little speechless.

I was talking about national affairs just now, why did I stumble on such a topic in a blink of an eye?

originally wanted to prevaricate in the past, but who knew that Xing Zhong and Xue Zhen were also curious about this, and echoed on the side, they had to get to the bottom of it.

Alas~

Only the eternal topic of 'woman' can make a man with a wrong lips suddenly start to speak.

"How can it be as simple as you think?"

Spreading his hands, Sun Shaozong said helplessly: "At the beginning, I took care of it, so it was naturally not good to provoke any barbarian girls - when the situation gradually stabilized, once those barbarian women saw me, they were either frightened and brave, or they were greeted by a thousand obedient people, but how could there be any wildness to drive?" ”

When the three of them heard this, they were all disappointed.

Wang Ren even pointed at Sun Shaozong and shook his head again and again: "It's boring, you're boring!" We want to listen to some romantic stories, but who do you want to fool with this forward-looking and backward talk? ”

To say that Sun Shaozong has slept with a few barbarian girls in the past two years, and there are many things worth recalling, but how can he be willing to reveal these private things between the beds to outsiders?

Just as he was about to continue his perfunctory work, he saw the accompanying steward Barley—uh, he should be called Zhao Nan now—trotted over, and said with a smile: "Master, lord, the luggage that should be loaded on the ship should be neatly put away, but I don't know whether to board the ship now, or wait until lunch......

"What time is this? Lunch is simple on board! ”

Sun Shaozong gave an undoubted order, and then respectfully asked Uncle Xing to go first.

Xing Zhong resigned again and again, until Wang Ren and the others were impatient and opened his mouth to urge, and then he walked in the head with a red face.

When the four of them reached the bow of the boat, they saw a few maids and women coming down from the carriage behind, and then invited out two young girls and a middle-aged woman.

Needless to say, that woman was naturally Xing Zhong's wife.

As for the two girls, they both served diligently around Xing's wife, and they couldn't tell which was Xue Zhen's sister and which was Xing Zhong's daughter.

That's right.

At the banquet that day, I seemed to have heard Xing Zhong say that his daughter had a great friendship with Miaoyu.

And as soon as he thought of Miaoyu, Sun Shaozong's thoughts couldn't help but fly to Yanjing City - he was in too much of a hurry at first, but he couldn't figure out how to solve Miaoyu's hidden worries until he left.

However, in the past two years, there has been no mention of Miaoyu or the news of the White Lotus Holy Maiden in the letter from Beijing and the newspaper, and this time bomb has not been officially detonated.

"Haha, brother, let's get back to my soul!"

was thinking about the rights and wrongs in the capital, and suddenly there was a white slap in front of him.

But Wang Ren saw that he looked at the female dependents fixedly, and thought that he was fascinated by women, so he stretched out his hand to cover Sun Shaozong's sight, and said: "Although it is beautiful and delicious, it is my own relatives after all, and it is not good to surprise my aunt and two sisters." ”

This is really a crow standing on the body of a pig......

Phew!

It should be the heart of a villain, the belly of a gentleman!

Sun Shaozong glanced at him speechlessly, and wanted to defend a few words, but seeing that Xing Zhong and Xue Zhen didn't react, he was in a hurry to say something, as if he was covering up.

So he simply pretended not to hear and took the initiative to divert the topic.

There are two flowers, one on each branch.

But after Sun Shaozong looked away, there was a person on the dock who was relieved.

This person is naturally Xing Zhong's daughter Xing Xiuyan.

Because I don't know if Xing Zhong was drunk that day, whether he showed his tone of wanting to climb others in front of Sun Shaozong.

So after being 'locked' by Sun Shaozong's gaze, she only felt like a mang on her back, and her embarrassed palms were tidal - that is, relying on her excellent psychological quality, she did not show any inappropriate demeanor under this pressure.

Finally got rid of the pressure, and went from the stern to the deck again, Xing Xiuyan just breathed a sigh of relief, and was waiting to hide in the cabin with his mother and the newly acquainted Xue sister.

Who knew that Xue Baoqin suddenly confessed to Aunt Xing, and then Tingting curled up to the bow of the boat and bowed in front of Sun Shaozong.

I only heard her say: "There is a difference between inside and outside, and the little sister should have avoided it, but I heard that the second brother Sun had saved my aunt, and the little sister had been fostered under the knee of the aunt for two years. ”

These words are down-to-earth and generous, but they are in the same vein as Xue Baochai - well, the figure is also the tall and plump that the Xue family has always had.

The difference is that Xue Baoqin's eyebrows are abnormally smart, and compared with Baochai, he is three points less calm and three points more vivid.

In terms of appearance alone, it should be similar to hairpin.

But the lively atmosphere that came to the face was more pleasing than the two of them - if I had to describe it, it would be like combining Baochai's magnanimity and mind with Shi Xiangyun's coquettishness.

After all, it was a girl who had not yet left the cabinet, Sun Shaozong roughly swept his eyes, and while he was amazed in his heart, he also hurriedly bowed and saluted: "The sister of the Xue family doesn't need to be polite, I am used to being a brother with you, and it was just a gesture that day, where is it worth being so solemn?" ”

Xue Baoqin pursed his lips and smiled: "The second brother is a hero, and he will never take this matter to heart, but our Xue family will never dare to forget this kindness." ”

As he spoke, he solemnly gave another salute, and then said goodbye to everyone and went to the cabin with Xing Xiuyan's mother and daughter.

Looking at her slender figure and disappearing at the junction of the hatch, Sun Shaozong couldn't help but sigh in his heart, these two brothers and sisters are really not comparable to ordinary people, and they are even more different from that Xue's head.

Well~

said that he was Xue Baochai's brother and sister, so it didn't seem so disobedient.
