In the afternoon of this day, Yao Jinzheng, who had drunk wine, was staring at him in a daze and wanted to take a nap, but Han Jing came over and knocked on the door in high spirits, chattering and trying her best to persuade her to get on the boat and enter the river tonight, saying that Sun Xijun had already arranged it there, and if she didn't leave today, she might miss the itinerary, and it would take a few days for this delay, and maybe the official ship would not be able to arrive. Although Yao Jin heard it and wanted to send someone to blow him away, he also knew that the days of wandering around always had to end, anyway, Sun Xijun's matter here was over, so he agreed to take the boat that night.

At this time, in an inconspicuous courtyard in the northern suburbs of Youzhou City, the gray-clothed man who kicked Yao Jin's foot also packed his luggage and was about to go out, and there was a young man standing at the window with his back hand, only to see him looking out of the window with a smile on his face, and said lightly: "Did she really jump out of the window?"

"What's more, scolding people is full of anger, not like a princess, like a wild boy who is not afraid of heaven and earth that runs out of the woods. ”

"Naturally, she is exactly that kind of person. The man turned his head and glanced at the man in gray, "Otherwise, how can I do my princess." ”

That's right, these two people are Murong Zihua and Murong Jing, the two of them transferred from the South China Sea to Neijiang, and they have been in this Youzhou city for two days, and they were about to continue to go north, but they didn't expect to meet Yao Jin and his party.

"Childe, pack up and go. ”

"Wait for the master of this courtyard to come back, borrow it for a few days, and say goodbye in person. ”

"This family makes wine vessels, and it should be delivered to the city today," Murong Jing glanced at the cart in the courtyard and said, "I guess I'm coming back soon." ”

As he was talking, a middle-aged man with a big belly happily pushed an empty cart into the courtyard, and there was a large bag of lotus leaf wrapped chicken on the cart. Stopping the car, the man carefully held the lotus leaf chicken outside the house where Murong Zihua was, and said softly: "Two sons, are you there?"

"In. Murong Jing opened the door, "Boss, my son-in-law has been waiting for you for a long time." ”

"Hehe, I made a big business today, so I went to the city to buy this, but I waited in line for a while to buy it, and asked the two sons to try it," the man offered the lotus leaf wrapped chicken with both hands, and touched the money bag on his waist, looking satisfied.

Murong Jing took the lotus leaf wrapped chicken, took two gold leaves from his arms and stuffed them into his hands, "My son-in-law is leaving immediately, I have lived with you boss for the past two days, and I have a lot of trouble, so I will express my gratitude." ”

"This can't be helped!" the man's big rough hands shook again and again, "The broken courtyard on the outskirts of the city, the residence of the vulgar family, it is rare for the son to like to live quietly for two days, and he has already given me the exchange of silver tickets from Jiangmen Qianzhuang, and I can't accept this gold anyway! Although I am a rough man, I still know my duty." ”

Murong Zihua in the house heard what he said, and also walked to the door, nodded and said, "The words are not rough, you are a craftsman, and you will be able to earn a share of your family business in the future." ”

"Cheng Gongzi Jiyan! I did send 20 of the best small wine jugs to Qifeng Lou today, this small wine jug has always been for people's use, and the price is expensive, and the boss rarely ordered in the past. Today, I said that the county keeper was in a hurry, and I asked for twenty at once, and I paid the cash immediately after I sent it. ”

Murong Zihua's heart moved when he heard this, and he asked, "Do you know what is the use of Lord County Shou asking for so many wine jugs?"

The man shook his head first, thought about it, and suddenly patted his thigh and said, "Yes, the shopkeeper said that it was the princess who was going to give it to the princess, and said that the princess was leaving tonight, so she asked for it in such a hurry." ”

I'm leaving tonight...... Murong Zihua only felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't think of the trick for a while, but Murong Jing's face on the side changed, and he grabbed the man's arm and asked, "Do you know how the princess goes?"

"Since, naturally, I took the official boat to cross the Neijiang River and go to Fujian. ”

"Official ship!" Murong Jing only said these two words, and then flew into the house to get his luggage, and Murong Zihua had already left the courtyard, only to hear a horse neighing, and he had already galloped towards the city. And the man who hadn't reacted to the extra handful of gold leaves in his hand at some point, and he didn't even have time to say thank you to the gray figure, and he was the only one left in the courtyard in an instant.

"Ah Jing, are you sure it's the boat?"

"That's right, there are no official ships entering the port these days, and the only one that can go is that one!"

"Are Han Jing and Sun Xijun crazy, how dare they let her take that boat!"

"That was originally an official ship, but it was only after it was repurposed that Sun Xijun used it for his own use, and it was Han Jing who was afraid of delaying the trip, so Sun Xijun would think of using that boat!"

"Damn! Damn!" Murong Zihua whipped a few times in a row, the horse was in pain, and with a long howl, he galloped wildly, Han Jing shouted while chasing: "Childe, even if we rush to the dock, they will definitely be on the boat!"

"I know, but at least we can find someone before she drowns!"

"The boat is full of people from the palace of the Li Dynasty, you will be exposed!" Murong Jing felt that his son's reaction to this matter seemed to be too big, that princess had nine cities and one river in her hands, even if it was useful to them, how could she compare with their great cause? So Murong Jing rode his horse to catch up with him, "Then even if something happens to the princess of the Li Dynasty, she will be in the territory of the Li Dynasty, and she has nothing to do with us and the Min Kingdom! But if we rush to the rescue and expose our whereabouts, it will be a big deal!"

"It's because the big event is approaching that she can't have a problem!" Murong Zihua saw that he was about to reach the city gate, and hurriedly reined in his horse and turned into the bush next to him, "It's too noticeable to lead the horse into the city, let's go on foot." ”

Murong Jing nodded, and the two walked quickly to the city gate.

"Ah Jing, after entering the city in a while, you immediately go to Jiangmen Qianzhuang to find someone, be sure to go to the dock to arrange two unobtrusive boats, and you will wait for me on the boat. ”

"Yes, when will you join me, son?"

Murong Zihua was about to answer, but he saw a wooden fence erected at the gate of the city from a distance, and the soldiers guarding the city were driving away the people who were going to enter the city.

"May I ask this guard brother, why is he not allowed to enter the city? Murong Jing walked to the wooden fence and asked very politely.

"Princess Heya from the capital is in the city, and the county guard is forbidden to enter all the city gates for safety! ”

Murong Jing smiled slightly, pulled the soldier to the side, and smiled and touched a golden leaf: "This big brother, there are still important things in the city, can you accommodate one or two......

The soldier glanced around, and saw that no one could see him, so he put the gold leaf in his sleeve and persuaded: "It is useless for you to enter the city, for no one is allowed to pass on the main roads in the city at present." It was instructed from above when the princess's ship would leave the harbor and when the passage in and out of the city would be restored to normal. ”

"That'...... When will the princess's ship leave port?"

"If the time is counted, the princess should be almost at the dock by this time. ”
