Chapter 160: Qing asked
Zhu Zhitong was carefully searching for the meaning of his words, and said coldly:
"What if you can't find him?"
Zhu Zhitong immediately glared at Qiu Yue angrily.
"No, it won't! He is a big living person, how can he not be found! He has such a good brain, even if something happens, he will definitely find a way to escape. β
"Hmm...... You're right, so it seems that he was robbed by someone, such as being drugged, so he couldn't escape. β
Zhu Zhitong became more and more anxious.
"Why don't you people in the Liuxia Kingdom move at every turn, these drugs, disguise, and plotting. He is a scholar, who has he offended? Isn't it just escorting my sister across the river, what reason is there to be hijacked? β
Qiu Yueshi looked at her with a look of anger, but she felt even more pitiful, and hurriedly smiled: "I'm just making an analogy, if you want to rob a big living person unconsciously, it is indeed too simple for those people who are in the fog." It's better for you to think about it carefully, has Master Su really offended anyone? β
Zhu Zhitong heard this, thought carefully for a while, and said:
"If there is, then only Lu Aweng will be left."
At the moment, I told the longitude and latitude of the Nanhua gold sales case.
After hearing this, Qiu Yueshi shook her head and said:
"It's not him."
"How so?"
"According to what you said, Lu Xingyuan has resigned and retired to old age, but there are still many children in his clan who are in charge of the court, if it is not good for Master Su, once the incident happens, it will not only violate the original intention of your mother emperor, but also offend Cangwu country, Lu Xingyuan has to protect the safety of the clan, and it is too late to avoid suspicion, how can he go to provoke your mother emperor again? This is one of them. β
Zhu Zhitong heard that he was reasonable, and asked:
"And what about the second one?"
"Even if Mr. Su once helped Liu Mingyan testify about the Nanhua gold sale case, he is at best a witness, not a chief accusator. If the Lu family wants to settle accounts, they should also settle the accounts on Liu Mingyan's head, how can they calculate an insignificant outsider instead? The three generations of the Lu family are prominent, so they will not be so unproductive. β
Zhu Zhitong saw that he was still unfinished, and asked, "Is there another three?" β
"Yes, this third piece is also the strangest one I've ever had. What is the purpose of the Lu clan if he wants to kidnap Master Su? Just venting your anger? What happens after the hijacking? If you kill him? You have to clean it up, or you're going to get yourself in trouble. If you don't kill him, it will be even more troublesome to keep the mouth of Master Su who can speak well. Lu Xingyuan is old and calculating, how could he do such a childish act. β
Zhu Zhitong woke up like a dream, and sighed: "What you said is not difficult to understand, but why didn't I think of it?" β
"As the so-called concern is chaos, I'm just a bystander, so I think clearly." Qiu Yue said truthfully, took a cloak from the side and put it on Zhu Zhitong with her own hands, "You see that the clouds in the sky are getting thicker and thicker, and the sea breeze is rising suddenly, I'm afraid that there is a storm coming, let's go back to the cabin first." β
Zhu Zhitong was more and more confused by his sentence "If you care, you are chaotic", and she had no idea, so she had to nod and walk towards the cabin.
Akizuki stretched out his hand, and his slender fingers flicked twice on the scabbard, and soon the eagle tail appeared in the hatch of the ship.
"Her Royal Highness the princess should go back to the cabin to rest first, and you help her down. The storm is coming, take the ship back into the serpentine shape, and then go to know the ship behind it, and find an island before it gets dark, and avoid the night. β
"But!" Zhu Zhitong turned her head suddenly, looking at Qiu Yueshi helplessly: "If it's not Lu Aweng, who else will it be?" Where am I going to find him? β
"Your Highness...... I haven't seen these things in person, so let me think about it, and then talk about it when I have an idea. β
Zhu Zhitong wanted to speak again and again, and finally obediently went underground into the cabin.
In terms of intelligence, Zhu Zhitong is by no means under Qiuyue, but in terms of experience and interests in the court, she is far less sophisticated and understanding than Qiuyue.
Although she and Qiu Yue just met in Pingshui, but now Qiu Yue is the only one who has the sincerity and someone to help her.
After so many days away from Taili, my mother must be very worried. Fortunately, the news of his appearance on Nanhua Island a few days ago should soon reach her mother's ears, at least it can be regarded as a report of safety.
Mother, when I find Da Su, I will go back immediately......
Qiuyue's fleet spent the night on the edge of the nameless island, and the next day it was already raining and the sky was clear.
Zhu Zhitong stood on the bow of the boat in her clothes early in the morning, staring blankly into the distance. Ah Kui was directing a few of his attendants to wash the deck, wondering how to make her happy.
After getting along these days, Ah Kui feels that this princess not only has no shelf, but also has a good temperament, and they are about the same age as each other, so they can talk very well. It's just that when it comes to what Bachelor Su is, he is depressed, and he really doesn't know how to explain it.
Suddenly, one of the attendants pointed to the sea and shouted, "Look over there." β
Ah Kui looked over and saw that the color of the sea water had changed somewhat, and knew that it was important, so he hurriedly turned around and got out of the cabin.
After a while, Akizuki also went to the deck with the eagle tail.
"That's right, the water is a little yellower and much more turbid than it was a few days ago. It should be not far from the mouth of the Hanjiang River. β
As she spoke, Akizuki stretched out her hand, and Eagletail handed over a map.
"You see, according to the signs on this map, if you drive south from the mouth of the sea, you should be able to see Meilongyu in about two days."
"Mei Longyu? Is that the island we're looking for? Ato interjected and asked.
"Yes, in order to catch up with the fish, the fishermen of our Liuxia Kingdom sometimes sneak across the border of the blue sea, and some fishermen have strayed here more than once. Because the island is shaped like a moon and is very sheltered from wind and rain, and the radius is about half of the Tsukushi Peninsula, it should allow us to live for a while. β
"With such a big island, why don't the blue sea and the canopy belong to its own borders?" Ah Kui was puzzled.
"The neighboring countries around Cangwu are all small countries on land, and since ancient times, they have only cared about things on the ground, and they are beyond the reach of the sea beyond the Hanjiang River. Bihai is because this island is neither inhabited nor mineralized, far away from the border and difficult to govern, so I simply don't care. β
Eagletail nodded and said, "I also heard my father mention that this Meilongyu Island looks beautiful, but in fact it is useless, and even the fish are reluctant to approach because of the rapid and numerous mudflows near the island. β
"So, this is called the road of heaven and man. Since this island is quite large, let's settle down first. Surviving first is the most important thing. Qiu Yue raised her hand and said in a loud voice: "Pass my order, and the ships will turn their bows and turn to the southwest." Everyone began to pack up and prepare to land on the island in three days. β
When everyone heard that they were going to land on the island, they couldn't help but cheer and dispersed to start preparations. Zhu Zhitong was still alone on the bow of the boat, not moving, as if the scene had nothing to do with her.
Seeing her lonely look, Qiu Yue couldn't bear it, and said softly: "I saw that your face was tired, but the rain was too loud last night, and you didn't sleep well?" β
Zhu Zhitong shook her head.
"You're going to land on the island, since you're about to reach the mouth of the Hanjiang River ahead, why don't you borrow me a small boat and let me go back to the blue sea alone?"
"Why did Your Highness say this? Didn't we agree that as long as I settled down on the island, I would accompany you to find Master Su? β
"No, it's easy for you thousands of clansmen to find a home, how can you be leaderless after landing on the island, they can't do without you. If you will lend me a boat, I will be grateful. β
"No!" Qiu Yue shouted, and her eagerness was beyond words.
The eagle tail had already retreated into the cabin, and when he heard Qiu Yue's rapid voice, his heart was horrified, and he immediately rushed out like a ghost, and flashed to Qiu Yue's side in a blink of an eye, and saw Qiu Yue standing there well, Fang breathed a sigh of relief.
Qiu Yue whispered without looking back: "Go down." β
Zhu Zhitong watched Eagle Tail retreat obediently, looking at Qiu Yue in surprise. In the time she spent with him, Qiu Yue had always been a modest and gentle and gentle person, and she didn't know why Qiu Yue was suddenly so moved.
"Does Your Highness think that my Qiuyue has passed Liu Mingyan's pass, so I have forgotten the agreement of the day?"
"I ...... I didn't mean that, I just felt that it had been too long to leave the palace, and if it was delayed any longer, I would be very worried about my mother's ......."
What Zhu Zhitong said was not an excuse, Su Xiaochen made her uneasy, and her mother also worried her. She has never been out of the palace for so long since she was a child, and she has never made such a big noise. If she returned to Taiye City this time, she would not be surprised if her mother was angry and punished herself for three or five years and was not allowed to leave the city. If there really will be that day, it is even more important to find Su Xiaochen before this time as soon as possible. As the days passed, my mother must now force my eldest sister to send people everywhere to search for her traces.
Every inch counts.
"Akizuki-kun...... I agreed with you that day to let you help me find Master Su, but I was in a hurry and didn't think about it carefully. I've felt like I'm not supposed to be with you these days. β
"Why?"
"Although Liu Mingyan didn't chase after me for a while, my mother must have learned the news right now, if she knew that I was with you, she would definitely send someone to chase after her, then your people would definitely be affected. But as long as you borrow me a boat, and when I come ashore and show up, after the news reaches Taiye City, my mother emperor will not chase you anymore. β
Qiu Yue bowed her head and was silent, in fact, he didn't think of these truths that Zhu Zhitong said. Not to mention the emperor, Liu Mingyan suffered a loss in his own hands, how could he give up. But sometimes when he saw her looking at the sea in a daze, or suddenly becoming depressed when she was talking and laughing with Ato and the others, he felt unbearable, and he didn't want to leave her alone.
He didn't know what kind of person that Master Su was, he just didn't want to see her gloomy and gloomy. Every time her eyebrows tightened, his heart sank.
"You're right, you really shouldn't stay with the Serpentine any longer. In my capacity, I should consider the safety of my people. Qiu Yue's tone returned to its usual softness, clear as water, as if she had decided something.
