The wardrobe where Wu Jin was hiding was next to the door, and the dark compartment below was a long strip, half in the room, half on the deck outside the room, and Wu Jin's head lay under the door, six feet away from the wall of the ship, and his head was covered by a partition.

Wu Jin had already discovered that this partition was movable at this time, and removed it, and a six-foot-long passage appeared in front of his head, leading directly to the wall of the ship, and the wall of the ship was also a movable board, which could be removed from the inside, so that the advantage of this design was that at the last moment, he could also crash through the wall of the ship from the top of his head and jump into the sea to escape.

But at this time, Wu Jin didn't move, and several people were standing above his head, and as long as he made a slight sound, he would hear it from above.

Yu Hailan was still lying on top of him, she stretched out her head from time to time, kissed Wu Jin gently, and loved the man in front of her wholeheartedly, her heart was only open in this six-foot-long, three-foot-high dark space, and she didn't know if she would love someone as wholeheartedly as she did at this time when she saw the sky again and returned to reality.

At this time, her whole body and mind were open to Wu Jin, she threw away all the reserve, shyness and self-esteem of a woman, just to take care of the flower of love that bloomed for the first time in her twenty-two years, although it will be as short as an epiphany, although it only blooms in the dark, but for Yu Hailan, this is her flower of life, she longs for Wu Jin to embrace her like this, lying in this dark space forever, even if this is a grave, she is willing.

Wu Jin gently stroked her smooth silky hair, gently sniffing the fragrance emanating from her hair, the fragrance of her body that was unique to a mature woman fascinated him, but he listened to the conversation of several people above his head word in his ears.

This is the difference between a man and a woman, a man is a face, he can coexist with countless points at the same time, he is at the moment of coexistence with a beauty, but he can take into account the danger around him at the same time, pay attention not to let Yu Hailan make a sound, thinking about the next step in his mind, and a woman is a straight line, there is only one point, when she loves someone, she will forget everything around her, forget where she is? She just wanted to keep going in a straight line, and even if she reached the end of the darkness, she wouldn't look back.

The sound from the wooden deck was far louder than the air, and he heard the conversation on the gangway, which was only about a quarter of an hour away, and he wondered what he would do if it was him.

Quite simply, he would not hesitate to unscrew the lock on the door, and since he had gone up to the second floor, there would be no taboos, and as soon as his mind touched this, he heard the 'click!' when the lock on his head was twisted. 'Sound.

"Old prince, I'm sorry, this lock is not strong!"

．．．．．．． Shao Jingwen pushed the door open, everything in the room was in his eyes, the king of Lanling next to him was furious, but his anger couldn't stop Shao Jingwen's determination, when Shao Jingwen's smiling eyes glanced at him, his heart hung again, did the other party find something?

Shao Jingwen walked into the cabin with two of his men, there were too many suspicious places in this room, the large and thick bed, the black pitch base, the mottled walls, the wide wardrobe more than one person high, he walked on the floor, there was a hollow sound under his feet, the mezzanine below was obviously deeper than the next door, he was almost certain that those three people were hiding somewhere in this cabin.

"General, there seems to be a dark room here!"

One of his subordinates was the first to notice the anomaly, he found a very hidden door in the wall, Shao Jingwen pulled out his knife suddenly, 'Bang! With a thud, he slammed his shoulder against the door and rushed in.

Inside was an empty room, there was nothing, there was a small door in the corner, only half a person high, Shao Jingwen walked up quickly, unscrewed the door, a strong river wind came to his face, and there was a dark river outside, he was a little stunned, could those three people have escaped from here?

"This is an emergency escape opening, which has disappointed General Shao!" The cold voice of King Lanling came from behind.

Shao Jingwen bit his lip and walked back to the room, the two subordinates had quickly finished searching, and shook their heads at him, Shao Jingwen was very indignant in his heart, he knew that the three people were hiding in a mezzanine on the second floor, but he just couldn't find it, and more importantly, he didn't have time.

At this time, his eyes fell on the wardrobe, the wardrobe was very large, enough to accommodate three people, Shao Jingwen stepped forward, first opened the drawer below, which was full of embroidered shoes, he closed the drawer, and opened the cabinet again, and there were more than a dozen long dresses hanging inside.

"This is my granddaughter's closet, general, please respect yourself!"

In the Daning Dynasty, it is extremely rude to open a woman's wardrobe at will, Shao Jingwen of course also knows, he pretended not to hear, he suddenly there was a wooden board under the wardrobe, he quickly opened it, only to see that it was full of women's trousers, belly pockets, heart clothes and other small clothes, he was stunned for a moment, and quickly put the board down, he couldn't touch this again.

"Old prince, I'm sorry!"

He closed the closet door in frustration, unbeknownst to him, he had found the entrance to the dark compartment, but he had given it up.

Wu Jin below also breathed a sigh of relief, he finally got through this level, in the dark, he felt that there was liquid falling on his face, flowing into his mouth, salty, he suddenly woke up, his hand groped on her face, Yu Hailan didn't know when it started, and he was already in tears.

She bit her lip tightly, tears rolled down, she felt that the flower of her love was about to wither, all joy and happiness were about to leave her, she would soon return to the world of light, but for her, it was the beginning of darkness.

Is that how her first love ended? She was unwilling, but her heart was full of fear, tears were the outpouring of her fear, how she hoped that Wujin could hug her, kiss her, give her a hope, so that the flower of her love could bloom forever.

Wu Jin seemed to feel the fear in her heart, he hugged her tightly, kissed her eyes with burning lips, and sucked the tears on her face, his heart ached, this was his senior sister, he wanted to protect her, he wanted to build a golden house in his heart, hide his senior sister in it, and no one could hurt her anymore.

Yu Hailan slammed on his chest, trembling violently, like a helpless bird in a storm, Wujin's gentleness washed away the embankment in her eyes, she burst into tears, at this moment, she was concerned about her young junior brother all her life.

A fierce footstep interrupted Wu Jin's sadness, and then a soldier's report was a thunderbolt from the sky to both Wu Jin and Yu Hailan.

"Report to the General, we caught the dark-skinned woman by the river!"

"Ah Ying!"

"Senior sister!"

"No!" Yu Hailan and Wu Jin glanced at each other, their eyes showed incomparable shock and fear, Chen Ying was caught by them..... This news was like grasping a life-saving straw for Shao Jingwen in despair, and he suddenly shouted hysterically: "Huangfu Wujin, I will give you a stick of incense in exchange for a silver ticket, otherwise, I will cut off her head and hang it on the pier." ”

After shouting, he looked up to the sky and laughed, and at the last moment of their contest, God finally took pity on him, and he had the last laugh.

Shao Jingwen strode out, "Let's go!" ”

There was a jumble of footsteps, and they hopped into their boats and headed out into the river...... At this time, Wu Jin's body had completely regained consciousness, Yu Hailan helped him out of the dark grid, Wu Jin walked a few steps slowly, let his muscles adapt to the normal environment, and he felt that his body was no longer in any stagnation.

He immediately handed over the shark skin bag containing the silver ticket to the King of Lanling, without the slightest hesitation, no matter what price he paid, he had to save Chen Ying, he only had time for a stick of incense.

"Please ask the prince to be an intermediary, I will keep my promise, give him the silver ticket, and ask him to keep his promise to release people."

King Lanling nodded and took the purse, he also felt a little regretful, they failed at the last moment, but his mind was the same as Wu Jin, saving people first.

Wu Jin turned back to look at Yu Hailan again, he stared at Yu Hailan's slightly sad eyes, "Senior sister, I will go out with the prince, and you stay here." ”

The crimson on Yu Hailan's face has not completely faded, she pulled her scattered hair into a bun, and her white face has a dazzling brilliance under the light, but the melancholy in her eyes is shrouded in her eyes like a light mist, this melancholy has disappeared because of the blooming of the flower of love in her life, and when she leaves the darkness and re-enters the world, her melancholy has returned, even more sad than before.

This kind of sorrow of hers even felt by the king of Lanling County, and his heart that had been through vicissitudes seemed to understand something, he knew that something must have happened to them in that dark place, otherwise they would not have become so affectionate between them.

He couldn't help but feel a trace of sympathy for Yu Hailan in his heart, but he didn't speak, just quietly waiting for the two of them to decide.

Yu Hailan shook his head stubbornly, "I'll go with you!" ”

"Good!" Wu Jin handed her his hand and smiled gently, "We continue to live and die together!" ”

'Life and death depend on each other! The simple four words made Yu Hailan shake, she stared at Wu Jin's eyes again, at this moment, her Wu Jin's eyes read a kind of perseverance, read a kind of love, read a kind of man's responsibility, tears blurred her eyes again, she trembled and stretched out her hand, and Wu Jin's hand was tightly held together, she smiled in tears, this smile, like her love flower blooming again.

Wu Jin resolutely turned around and walked towards the deck, no matter what, he must not let Chen Ying die.

．．．．．．．．． There are three small boats on the river, in the middle of the small boat, Chen Ying is tied with ropes, her face is pale, there are blood stains on the corners of her mouth, she was ambushed by thirty warriors on the way back, after killing seven people in a row, she was finally captured because she was outnumbered, and now, she is Shao Jingwen's last ray of hope.

Shao Jingwen was behind her, he looked at the official boat tightly, and his heart was also extremely nervous, half a pillar of incense had passed, but the prince's fleet was less than two miles away, and he had even seen a series of small bright spots on the river in the distance, that is, the prince's fleet.

He pulled out a horizontal knife, put it on Chen Ying's neck, and shouted: "Wujin, I'll count three times, if you don't decide, her head will fall into the river!" ”

"One!"

........ "Two! ”

Chen Ying's face was extremely pale, she was wounded by a knife, she was extremely weak due to excessive bleeding, she was almost carried in her hand by a burly embroidered guard, her lips were tightly strangled by a rope, she couldn't make a sound, she slowly closed her eyes, she was not afraid of death, but she didn't want to die like this, she hoped that Wu Jin would come out to save her, let her know that she was at least more important than those silver tickets in his heart, at least she wanted to take one last look at him, but her heart was a little desperate at this time, he didn't like her so much, would he make such a big sacrifice for her?

"Why didn't General Shao believe what he said?"

The official boat came slowly, Wu Jin appeared on the bow of the boat, and behind him stood Yu Hailan, Chen Ying's eyes suddenly turned red, and tears poured out, he cared about himself.

Shao Jingwen narrowed his eyes, sure enough, he was hiding in the official boat, he had been fighting with Wu Jin for so long, and it was the first time he had seen the true face of this person, he was only seventeen or eighteen years old, he was very burly and tall, his eyes were thin and long, and he felt like he was laughing, but his tone was very cold.

Shao Jingwen smiled coldly, "When did I stop believing my words?" ”

"General Shao said that it was a stick of incense, but now it's only half a stick of incense, and you will count to two, how can you let me believe you!"

"You don't talk nonsense!"

Shao Jingwen aimed at Chen Ying's neck, and raised the horizontal knife with both hands, "Take the silver ticket for another person, do you agree?" ”

"We promise!"

Behind Wu Jin, Yu Hailan shouted in panic, she was not as calm as Wu Jin, she shouted loudly: "We promise, you put down the knife quickly!" ”

Shao Jingwen smiled proudly, he saw that Wu Jin still didn't say anything, so he slashed at Chen Ying's neck, the cold light flashed, with the sound of the wind, in Yu Hailan's scream, his knife stopped less than an inch away from Chen Ying's neck, he squinted at Wu Jin, waiting for his reply.

Wu Jin finally sighed, "This is the will of heaven!" You win. ”

He handed the shark skin bag to the king of Lanling County who came over, "Lord Wang, please be the middleman, I will give you a silver ticket and ask him to release him!" ”

The king of Lanling County took the shark skin bag and shouted to Shao Jingwen: "General Shao, I will be the middleman, you may be true to your word?" ”

Shao Jingwen looked up to the sky and smiled, "I, Shao Jingwen, have never kept my promises, when did the old prince see me betraying my trust?" But ......"

He said the word 'but' and raised the knife again, "If you dare to make a ghost, my Shao Jingwen will cut off her head with a knife, and it will not scare people." ”

The King of Lanling said to Wu Jin in a low voice: "Don't worry! Although this person is Uncle Shen's confidant, he keeps his word and never breaks his word. ”

"Humph!" Wu Jin snorted coldly, "He broke his promise just now." ”

The king of Lanling County walked into a small boat and headed towards the center of the river, when the prince's fleet was only a mile apart, and the lantern on the bow of the big ship was clearly visible.

Fu Heng, the prince of the East Palace of the Daning Empire, stood on the bow of the boat with his hands behind his back, staring at the river in the distance, he vaguely saw the official boat on the river in the distance, so he smiled at Wei Ming behind him: "Have you seen it, it is the official boat of the king of Lanling County, I didn't expect to meet him here." ”

Wei Ming was worried, he sighed and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, what Weichen is worried about is still taxes and silver, and I am very worried that Wujin is not the opponent of the embroidered guard." ”

"Of course he is not Shao Jingwen's opponent!"

Huang Fuheng smiled faintly, unable to see the expression on his face, "Do your best!" I don't blame him for the failure, after all, I didn't send a powerful character like Shao Jingwen to support him. ”

His tone was a little regretful, he was the prince of the East Palace, too many people were staring at him, he couldn't do whatever he wanted like Uncle Shen, he was going to send two thousand troops to meet in the name of training, but his father warned him not to send troops out of Beijing at will, he knew that this was Uncle Shen's slander, but he had no choice but to ask Meihuawei to go to support, but Meihuawei and Wujin missed it, and they are still in Xingyang.

'Leave it to fate!' He didn't have much hope.

At this time, he had already learned that Shao Jingwen was in front, and it was estimated that Wu Jin was also in front, so he ordered again, "Speed up, go full speed!" ”

The East Palace Red Dragon Boat sailed like an arrow towards the heart of the river a mile away.

And at this moment, Shao Jingwen finally took over the heavy shark skin bag from the hands of the king of Lanling County, and the silver ticket bag carried by Wujin all the way finally fell into the hands of Uncle Shen Guo.

"Is this the bag?"

Shao Jingwen turned around and asked Zhao Chuandong on the small boat next to him, Zhao Chuandong glanced at Chen Ying and nodded timidly, "They treat it as a treasure all the way..... No one is allowed to touch it! ”

Shao Jingwen glanced back at the prince's red dragon boat, three hundred steps away from his small boat, he backhanded, cut a hole with a sharp horizontal knife, picked out the waterproof inner membrane, and revealed a stack of brand-new silver tickets in the leather bag, a total of ten stacks, tied tightly with paper tape, a hundred per stack, a total of a thousand silver tickets.

Shao Jingwen took out one of the stacks, with his hand, he knew that this was the silver ticket of Qi Dafu Qian Zhuang as soon as he touched it, he approached the torch, under the reflection of the firelight, the surface of the silver ticket flashed with the unique color of Qi Dafu silver ticket, each of the hundred is like this, Shao Jingwen smiled proudly, he turned back again, the prince's red dragon boat had reached one hundred and fifty steps away, and he had even seen the black shadow standing on the bow of the boat, that was the prince of the East Palace, Fu Heng.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, it's a pity that you came one step late!"

He jumped on the boat, kicked Zhao Chuandong into the river, and waved his hand, "Go!" ”

The boat quickly left the center of the river and soon disappeared into the night, and the three hundred embroidered guards led by Shao Jingwen evacuated both sides of the Luoshui as fast as possible, and evacuated cleanly.

"Wu Jin! Are you there? There was a shout from the emperor on the river.

．．．．．．．．． Wu Jin was taken on the red dragon boat, he didn't have time to wear a robe, he only wore a black tight-fitting Jiaoyu skin diving suit, looking tall and strong, Huang Fu Heng saw him from a distance, and couldn't help but smile and nodded, he heard Chen Zhi talk about Wu Jin, Chen Zhi hated this person very much, but it was also a kind of ability to make Chen Hei face hate.

However, in the letter that Su Hanzhen gave him, he praised him without hesitation, and wrote the deeds of Wujin in Donghai County clearly, which made Huangfu Heng full of curiosity about him, what kind of person is this Wujin?

Wu Jin also saw the crown prince from a distance, he was about thirty years old, with big ears and a medium build, and a very kind smile, but there was no expression in his eyes, this was a professional smile, and it had no meaning.

He stepped forward and knelt down on one knee, "Emperor Xiaomin has no Jin to see His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”

He is the commander of the Cloud Cavalry, and he only needs to kneel on one knee when he sees the prince, of course, if he kneels on both knees, it is more polite, but Wujin has not knelt any official except for his grandfather, so letting him kneel on both knees is more uncomfortable than killing him.

Wu Jin walked into the lobby, Huang Fuheng's eyes couldn't help but light up, what an unusual young man, he was wearing a tight-fitting diving suit, which set off his strong figure, with long black hair, floating behind his head in a chic manner, his big eyes were deeply embedded under the thick eyebrows, and the gaze shot out was deep and powerful, piercing the heart.

Huang Fuheng admired again and again in his heart, he liked this young man.

"Wu Jin, I've heard your name for a long time!"

Huangfu Heng smiled slightly, "Please get up, I will allow you not to kneel in the future!" ”

"Thank you, Your Highness the Prince!"

Wu Jin stood up, he saw the eldest brother Wei Ming standing next to him, so he smiled and nodded to him, Wei Ming was anxious in his heart, and asked him in a trembling voice, "That shark skin bag..... Is it still there? ”

Wu Jin sighed, "I'm sorry, that bag and the silver ticket in the bag were taken away by Shao Jingwen!" ”

"What!"

Wei Ming's face turned pale, and as soon as he spoke again, Huang Fuheng stopped him with a wave of his hand, "I said, as long as you do your best." ”

At this time, Wu Jin smiled slightly, he took off his close-fitting Jiaoyu skin diving suit in front of dozens of guards and more than a dozen maids, and there was a sudden twitch in the lobby, and Tianxing next to him shouted, "Wu Jin, don't be rude!" ”

Wu Jin was wearing only a pair of pants all over his body, and more than a dozen maids were flushed, turning their heads and not daring to look at him, but Huang Fuheng was silent, staring at Wu Jin's strange behavior, he knew that there must be a reason, but Wei Ming looked at Wu Jin in surprise, he also understood that his brother was not a reckless person, but what was he doing?

Wu Jin turned around and smiled slightly at one of the guards, "Please borrow a dagger!" ”

The guard stepped back and looked at him warily.

"Use mine!"

Huang Fuheng threw the dagger at his waist to Wu Jin, he was full of curiosity and interest in Wu Jin in his heart, and he already felt that Wu Jin's move must have a deep meaning.

Wu Jin pulled out the dagger, only to feel the cold light and extremely sharp, "Good knife!" He praised it, then turned the dagger back, and picked the densely sewn thread on the neckline of the fish skin diving suit, and he pulled it violently, only to hear a muffled sound of 'snort-', and the inner and outer layers of the fish skin were torn open by him, and a large number of pieces of paper were sprayed out from the interlayer, flying all over the sky.

"It's a silver ticket!" One of the guards picked up one and shouted loudly.

"This one of mine is too, it's a 10,000 taels of Qi Dafu silver ticket!"

Huangfu Heng and Wei Ming's eyes widened at the same time, and they looked at the scene in front of them in disbelief, and several guards packed up the silver tickets all over the ground and presented a thick stack of silver tickets to the prince.

"It's ....."

Huang Fuheng looked at the silver ticket in front of him in surprise, he couldn't believe his eyes.

Wu Jin hugged his fists and gave a salute, "This is a hundred million taels of silver tickets, all the taxes and silver in the East Palace are here, and the emperor is not dishonored!" ”

"That.... What about the silver ticket that Shao Jingwen took? Huangfu Heng asked suspiciously.

Wu Jin smiled faintly, "That's a fake silver ticket for Qi Dafu made by a friend of mine, it's no different from the real ticket, but under direct sunlight, there are only five colors of light on it, and the real ticket is a seven-color light, unless Shao Jingwen can calm down and take a closer look at it with a cup of tea, it's a pity that he doesn't have time!" ”

．．．．．．．．．
