Chapter 10 Take a break in Yangzhou City

Although the Tianfu fleet changed to the so-called forehead steamer in Zhenjiang, it was not a machine-powered steamer in fact, it was still a sailing ship combining manpower and wind power, but compared with the dhow in Suzhou, the brig bought in Zhenjiang was much faster. Immediately after one afternoon, the Tianfu ship had arrived in Yangzhou.

Yangzhou, the land of fireworks. It is said that Lord Tian wants to have a good time here, but now that the situation is urgent and the itinerary is too rushed, Lord Tian has no choice but to press the flower willow in his heart, and only wait for Liu Qingfeng to go to find a faster ship in order to arrive in Beijing earlier. Because they have just received another message from the flying pigeon.

Liu Qingfeng did not find a faster boat in Yangzhou, but he found a group of big men, who wore turbans on their heads, bare stripes on their upper bodies, and had sturdy bodies, and they looked like boatmen from coolies.

"My lord, our ship is already the fastest ship we can find. We want to return to Beijing as soon as possible, and we can only travel day and night, so our subordinates have found these boatmen and asked them to keep shaking their pulps, and we must be able to return to Beijing within six or seven days. Liu Qingfeng reported to Lord Tian.

"Well, that's all there is to it. Hurry up, let's go. Master Tian nodded, not daring to slack off.

Liu Qingfeng immediately summoned the invited boatman to the bilge to shake the pulp, and then returned to the ship to order the sails to be hoisted and continue to set sail!

In this way, Jin Yiwei has enough time to rest to face unknown dangers. Zhu Qing and Xiaobao can naturally rest. Zhu Qing stood on the deck, overlooking Yangzhou from afar, and couldn't help sighing, "Yangzhou, it's a pity." ”

"Young master, it is said that Yangzhou is a land of fireworks, rich in beauties." Xiaobao joked on the side.

"Really? Is she more beautiful than Miss Chen? Zhu Qing asked. This question stumped Xiaobao.

Chen Yuanyuan is indeed beautiful and moving, just because the big boat was resting in Yangzhou for a while, when Chen Yuanyuan went ashore to buy rouge gouache, her beauty had already tilted Yangzhou, making the street of Yangzhou City Fireworks Willow Lane suddenly eclipsed. Whether it is Chen Yuanyuan or Zhu Qing who accompanied Chen Yuanyuan, it can be said that they are envious of others! Zhu Qing is dressed as a brocade guard, followed by a big beauty, isn't the bridge of such a heroic beauty screaming? So at this moment, Zhu Qing was standing on the boat in a daze, still unsatisfied.

Xiaobao saw Zhu Qing's thoughts, and laughed evilly, "What about the girl you met in the Zhenjiang market?" ”

Xiaobao is talking about Yufeng. When Xiaobao said this, Zhu Qing came back to his senses from Chen Yuanyuan's memories, and the shadow of Yufeng and her gentle words and deeds appeared in his mind. I couldn't help but smile and say, "That's different." As for the difference, it is estimated that even Zhu Qing himself can't tell the difference. But if you don't forget it, it should be that Zhu Qing and Yufeng have a heart, because just after Zhu Qing left, Yufeng often asked her father Li Zicheng, "When will we go to rescue Shaoxia?" These words made Huzi the most unhappy, although Huzi had a straightforward personality, but he was very helpless in terms of feelings. He only urged Li Zicheng to return to his hometown in Shaanxi as soon as possible and make a comeback.

Li Zicheng is naturally not a person who loves children, so after Zhu Qing left, he immediately took the team, rode a fast horse, and rushed back to his hometown. I don't want to really run into bandits and robbers along the way! When a robber meets a robber, it is said that it should be a life-and-death battle, but Li Zicheng's encounter was without a knife or an arrow, because what they encountered was the "Liu Jiajun" who besieged the big ship of Tianfu but admired Li Zicheng very much. The leading brother of "Liu Jiajun" is the brother who has worshiped Li Zicheng since he was a child, Liu Zongmin. Later, Li Zicheng went to the Zhu family as a servant, Liu Zongmin had to go to the forging work, because of the government's harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, there was no way to make a living, Liu Zongmin had to take his workers to the south, I wanted to come to Li Zicheng, I didn't want the Zhu family to be beheaded again, Li Zicheng himself could not be protected, Liu Zongmin had to set up his own door, occupy the mountain as the king. It was not until recent years that "Liujiazhai" became famous, and Liu Zongmin was able to find out about Li Zicheng's whereabouts, but he was unable to meet for a long time.

When I saw it today, when the soldiers were facing each other, the brothers were reunited after a long absence, and they were very happy. After a lively conversation and laughter, the topic of the two fell on Zhu Qing, a suspicious teenager. However, since they saw that Zhu Qing was safe and sound on the Tianfu boat, the two of them were no longer worried, but they were just in a hurry, leading their brothers back to their hometown as soon as possible, meeting Shuangchengzi, and working together in Shaanxi to dominate the industry!

So Zhu Qing and Yufeng, one to the north and the other to the west, gradually drifted away, and Zhu Qing didn't know it, and thought that if he would have the opportunity to return to Suzhou in the future, would he be able to meet that gentle and moving woman again?

"What are you thinking? With me here, no one should even think of beating Miss Chen's idea. Just when Zhu Qingyuan was out of his mind, suddenly Liu Qingfeng appeared behind him.

Zhu Qing and Xiaobao hurriedly turned around.

"Is Ryagi-sama talking about us?" Zhu Qing said.

"It's not important, what matters is Miss Chen's safety, because you are Miss Chen's buddies. Well, since Lord Tian asked me to take the two of you, I will teach you a few tricks today, lest you say that I have treated you badly in front of Lord Tian. Liu Qingfeng said, suddenly smiling slightly, although he was not as sneering as before, but he was not as friendly as he imagined.

"Okay, I knew that Lord Liu was good at kung fu, and I wanted to learn a few tricks from adults to play tricks." Zhu Qing said with a smile, and then stretched his waist, moved his muscles and bones, and prepared to learn a trick and a half from Liu Qingfeng. Although he didn't know why Liu Qingfeng was suddenly so good to himself, no matter how much, when he watched the "Jinyiwei" series before, he felt itchy hands, and imagined that if he had such a kung fu, it would be an extremely happy thing.

"Well, which of you will come first?" Liu Qingfeng smiled at the corner of his mouth.

"I'll come first." Zhu Qing stepped forward.

"Young Master." Xiaobao knew that Liu Qingfeng didn't have a good intention, so he wanted to stop Zhu Qing, but Zhu Qing laughed at it.

"Okay, then let's learn darts first, even if you don't know how to do any kung fu, as long as the darts shoot well, you can still kill the enemy a hundred steps away, and take people's lives invisibly." Liu Qingfeng said, took out a dart from his waist with his right hand, sandwiched it between his two fingers, stood by his left ear, his head was slightly lowered, only two eyes were squinting at each other, and there was a sneer at the corner of his mouth.

With Liu Qingfeng's voice, "Look at the dart!" A crescent dart shot out from between his fingers and spun straight towards Zhu Qing. Although Zhu Qing didn't know martial arts, he had an instinctive reaction, he judged the direction of the dart by feeling and quickly moved his steps, but found that behind him was the cabin door panel. Zhu Qing didn't have time to think about it, he used his hands and feet at the same time, divided two by two, and quickly strung up to the upper deck, and Liu Qingfeng's crescent dart immediately hit the door panel of the cabin, making a muffled sound.

"Who?!" I didn't think that the dart hit the door of Tian Da's bedroom, and he has been assassinated and robbed one after another in the past few days, coupled with many years of experience in the rivers and lakes, which has made Tian Daren more vigilant or made him more afraid of death. So after hearing the sound of something stabbing on the door panel outside the door, I heard the adult be vigilant and asked.

"My lord's forgiveness, I am teaching Zhu Gongzi to practice darts, and I accidentally disturbed my aunt's rest." Liu Qingfeng hurriedly apologized.

"Hmph, it's a small matter to disturb this official, if you accidentally hurt this official, I think you can explain it?" Lord Tian opened the door and came out and scolded Liu Qingfeng for a few words.

"What about Zhu Gongzi?" Tian asked.

"Adult, small one is here." Zhu Qing looked down on the deck and said with a smile.

"Why are you climbing so high?" Tian looked up.

"Lord Liu shot me with a dart, so I had to dodge the dart." Zhu Qing said.

Lord Tian glanced at Liu Qingfeng, as if he was reproachful. Liu Qingfeng hurriedly clenched his fists and explained, "My lord, I feel that Zhu Gongzi is not telling the truth, he said that he doesn't understand martial arts, but he can inadvertently dodge the darts of the lowly position, and he has done it lightly, it is really difficult to explain." ”

"Zhu Gongzi hurry down, it's windy and cold above." Lord Tian didn't respond to Liu Qingfeng, raised his head and called Zhu Qing down, Zhu Qing nodded, and jumped off the upper deck with a few flips.

"Looking at Zhu Gongzi's skills, Lord Liu should be right, right?" Tian Daren said with a smile.

Zhu Qing patted his clothes and said with a smile, "Where, in fact, this is not martial arts, let alone light skills, it's just a game I've been playing since I was a child, I call it parkour." ”

"Parkour?" Of course, Lord Tian and Liu Qingfeng hadn't heard of it, so they asked in surprise.

"Well, how can I put it, it's running everywhere, messing around, rooftops, trees, streets, these are the places where I run a lot. Maybe it's because I was more active when I was a child, and I ran out of my current technique while running, so this is at most a skill, not martial arts, let alone light skills. Isn't it? After Zhu Qing explained, he gave Xiaobao a look. Although Xiaobao didn't understand what Zhu Qing said about parkour, he hadn't even seen Zhu Qing run when he was a child, but Xiaobao's cuteness was that he could always read Zhu Qing's eyes, for example, this time, he had to relieve Zhu Qing. So Xiaobao walked over with a smile and said, "Yes, yes, he used to run with me in the past, but I'm a stupid person and I run and fall, so I haven't learned it, but I didn't expect this to be a means of escape." ”

"I also dodged Lord Liu's deadly darts." Zhu Qing deliberately said loudly and smiled at Liu Qingfeng.

"Liu Guard, this is your mistake, Zhu Gongzi doesn't know martial arts, you just teach him from the basics, practice fist and foot kung fu first, how can you move darts as soon as you come up? Fortunately, Zhu Gongzi understands this...... What is this? Tian Daren forgot the new term parkour halfway through speaking, and turned his head to ask Zhu Qing.

"Parkour." Zhu Qing said with a smile.

"Yes, parkour, fortunately Zhu Gongzi understands this parkour, otherwise what if he really gets hurt? How do I explain to Yuanyuan? Master Tian continued to say to Liu Qingfeng, with a bit of reproach and advice.

"Humble duty knows mistakes, listen to the teachings of adults." Liu Qingfeng had no choice but to clench his fists and bow his head to apologize to Lord Tian.

"Okay, okay, you've always been resolute and always want early results, and you can't be blamed for that. That's all for today. You go to the bilge and take a look at the boatmen. Let them hurry up. Let's go back to Beijing as soon as possible. Master Tian said, turned around and walked towards Chen Yuanyuan's room.

"Yes, sir." After Liu Qingfeng sent Master Tian away, he glanced at Zhu Qingbai and walked down the bilge with a "hum".

Zhu Qing smiled and breathed a sigh of relief after watching Liu Qingfeng leave.

"Young master, young master, when did you practice this parkour?" Xiaobao saw that everyone was walking back, and hurriedly greeted Zhu Qing and asked Zhu Qing about parkour, which looked amazing.

"When I climbed the Qinglou, couldn't I practice secretly? Teach you another day. Of course Zhu Qing didn't know how to explain to Xiaobao, he couldn't say that he was a parkour master before he crossed over, right? Moreover, at this time, Zhu Qing saw that the lamp was lit in Chen Yuanyuan's room, and Lord Tian closed the door after walking in.

"Hey, what's the solution? Miss Chen is the concubine of Lord Tian, of course, it belongs to Lord Tian. Xiaobao saw Zhu Qing's thoughts and said on the side.

"Hmph, I'm going to take a look, and if he dares to do anything, I'll cut off his hand." Zhu Qing said angrily.

"The doors are closed, how do you get there?" Before Xiaobao finished speaking, Zhu Qing had already disappeared in front of him.

In the night, a dark shadow strung up the roof and parkoured towards the roof of Chen Yuanyuan's house.
