The big ship set sail slowly, Yang Yuanqing stood at the stern, and said goodbye to the farewell officials one by one, the wharf became farther and farther away, gradually becoming smaller, and after a while, the wharf had shrunk into a small black spot.

Yang Yuanqing walked back to the cabin, he hesitated for a moment, and looked at the other cabin, where there was a faint sound of a woman talking in a low voice, and the sound of Suo Suo packing up his clothes.

At this time, a maid walked out of the cabin and saw Yang Yuanqing head-on, startled, and hurriedly saluted, "See Your Highness!" ”

Yang Yuanqing nodded, "Do you still have any needs?" ”

At this time, the sound of packing up in the cabin stopped, and it became very quiet, and the maid hurriedly replied, "Back to Your Highness, it seems that it is a shortcoming, but ...... I can't remember it all at once. ”

Yang Yuanqing smiled softly: "There are still three days to go to Jiangxia here, just say what you need." ”

"Thank you Your Highness for your concern, I'll tell the girl."

Yang Yuanqing smiled, turned around and went into his cabin, the maid was stunned for a moment, and then slowly walked back to the cabin.

They live on the third floor of the big ship, this floor is dedicated to Yang Yuanqing, only a few pro-soldiers live together, due to the arrival of Xiao Yuexian, several pro-soldiers moved to the second floor, and there are only three of them in the entire cabin on the first floor, which is extremely quiet.

Their cabin was a suite, consisting of three cabins, one of which was filled with large bags of luggage, and a young woman in a white dress was kneeling in the inner cabin to pack her clothes.

She is tall, snow-skinned, dignified and calm, she is Xiao Yuexian, the princess of Baoyue of the original Xiao Liang, according to the prior agreement, she should go directly to Taiyuan, but it happened that Yang Yuanqing's fleet passed through Jiujiang County, and she got on the boat in Huancheng County.

"Girl!"

The maid walked quickly into the cabin and stuck out her tongue, "I just forgot, we still lack two copper basins. ”

"We'll talk about that later!"

Xiao Yuexian said lightly: "We have a silver basin here, which is enough." Try not to bother him. ”

"Yes!"

The maid sat down to help her pack her clothes, and after tidying up, she whispered again, "Princess......"

"Don't call me princess, have you forgotten?" Xiao Yuexian glanced at her. interrupted her.

"I forgot again."

The maid scratched her head embarrassedly, and she laughed in a low voice, "Girl, I find him very young! Not as old as I thought it would be. ”

"How old do you think he is?" A slight smile appeared on Xiao Yuexian's face.

"I thought His Royal Highness the King of Chu! At least forty or fifty years old, with a big beard and eyes like copper bells, I didn't expect to be so young, hehe! Pretty handsome. The maid covered her mouth and snickered.

"You...... Stop giggling. Hurry up and pack your things! ”

Xiao Yuexian smiled helplessly, but she was a little worried in her heart, she had no news of her father, and she didn't know where her father was now? Mr. Cen said that he was in Jiangdu, but she couldn't let go of it in her heart, could Yang Yuanqing really spare her father? ……

Yang Yuanqing was separated from them by two cabins, and the bulkheads were extremely tight, so that they could not be heard. In Yang Yuanqing's memory, Xiao Yuexian's appearance was only seen once when she was a child, and it was already very vague. I have the impression that she is a thin little girl.

But when I saw her today, I felt very good, her body was tall, her posture was beautiful, and her temperament was a little like Jiang Peihua.

However, thinking that this was a marriage in exchange of interests, Yang Yuanqing felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. He never liked political marriages, although he had to accept them.

At this time, a young woman walked to the door of the cabin and saluted, "Is Your Highness looking for me?" ”

The woman was the cook on the ship, and the only woman on board. About twenty-four or five years old, with a very plump body and good eyebrows, Yang Yuanqing nodded with a smile, "You go and take care of Miss Xiao, see what she needs, and give her all the matches." ”

"The handmaid obeys!"

The woman turned around and went to Xiao Yuexian's cabin, Yang Yuanqing no longer thought about Xiao Yuexian, took a few more books, and put pen to paper to read them......

In the early hours of the morning, the fleet passed Qikou, the wind speed on the river increased, and the speed of the ships also accelerated.

At this time, he suddenly heard slight footsteps behind him, and when he turned around, he saw Xiao Yuexian wearing a long skirt with a light yellow long skirt, Jiang Feng wrapped her long skirt tightly, highlighting her slender and slender figure, but she was wearing a hat, covering her flower-like appearance, which made Yang Yuanqing slightly disappointed in his heart.

"Did you get a good night's rest?" Yang Yuanqing asked with a slight smile.

"Thank you for letting Feng Niang take care of us, thank you!" Xiao Yuexian said in a low voice.

Yang Yuanqing smiled, looked back at the Yangtze River, and said slowly: "I have to come to see the river every morning, and experience the magnificence of the rolling Yangtze River east, and my mind will become very cheerful. ”

"Hmmm! I also like it, even though I grew up by the river, I still can't get enough of it. ”

Xiao Yuexian slowly walked to the side of the boat, grabbed a handful of wheat from the pouch she was carrying, held it high in the air, and slid down the silk sleeves embroidered with silk flowers, revealing a piece of crystal white wrist.

At this moment, several egrets in the air circled down and landed lightly in her hands, sticking out their long necks to peck at the wheat, and another egret mischievously landed on her hat, causing her to giggle.

Yang Yuanqing looked at the scene in front of him in surprise on the side, he suddenly remembered Yang Lihua's peerless appearance when she was feeding birds and birds on the small building, and thought of the lonely woman who 'I was born before I was born, and I am old when you were born', he couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart, and his eyes turned to Dajiang.

Xiao Yuexian's eyes turned slightly, and she glanced at Yang Yuanqing lightly, she saw a trace of pain flashing in Yang Yuanqing's eyes, and she couldn't help but feel a little surprised in her heart.

In a moment, the wheat in her hand was pecked out, and several egrets circled up again, soaring in the air, Xiao Yuexian withdrew her wrist and smiled shyly, "Since I was a child, I have fed egrets on the river, and I feel that they all know me." ”

For a long time, she didn't feel Yang Yuanqing's response, her eyes were gloomy, and she said in a low voice: "I'm sorry!" ”

"Nothing!"

Yang Yuanqing shook his head slightly, "The scene you just fed the egret reminded me of an old man, who has been dead for almost ten years. Buried in Xiping County, but I haven't gone to her grave to pay respects. ”

After speaking, Yang Yuanqing let out a long sigh, his heart was full of sighs and self-blame.

Half a day. Xiao Yuexian asked in a low voice, "Are you talking about Princess Leping?" ”

Yang Yuanqing quickly glanced at her, nodded silently, Xiao Yuexian bit her lip, and said softly: "Actually, an old silk and an old hairpin have her jīng spirit attached to it, so you don't have to go to the tomb, I think." As long as she keeps her old things around, it is a kind of sustenance of grief, and it is also a great relief for the deceased creatures, so I want to build a mound of clothes in my hometown at the same time, just for this kind of sustenance. ”

Xiao Yuexian's voice was soft and beautiful, like a clear spring flowing through Yang Yuanqing's heart, he didn't expect Xiao Yuexian's mind to be so delicate and so understanding. If he was just attracted to Xiao Yuexian before, at this moment, he fell in love with this gentle and understanding woman.

He tightened his grip on the coiled sword at his waist. I don't know if this sword has a trace of Yang Lihua's jīng spirit attached to it.

"Your Highness, can I ask you one thing?" Xiao Yuexian mustered up the courage to ask.

"You want to ask your father!"

Yang Yuanqing was also tolerant of her tone, and said with a smile: "I have crowned him as the crown prince Shaobao, he is now in Jiangdu, temporarily serving as the assassin of Jiangdu, stabilizing the situation in Jiangdu for me, and after the world is calmed, he will enter Beijing and win a high position, since I have promised not to kill him, I will naturally not break my word." ”

Xiao Yuexian's heart let go. She was grateful in her heart, lowered her head and whispered: "I only have this one relative, as long as His Highness is willing to treat him well, I am willing to serve His Highness with all my heart." ”

"I want you to follow me, not because I was kind to your father, but because I really want to follow me."

After speaking. Yang Yuanqing smiled, turned around and went back to the cabin, Xiao Yuexian stared at him and walked away, bit his lip lightly, took off the curtain, and revealed a beautiful face......

The time gradually came to dusk, Yang Yuanqing sat at the table and wrote a book, he was writing a restructuring plan, restoring the Han name of the three provinces, the internal history province was renamed Zhongshu Province, the internal history order was changed to the Zhongshu order, and the Nayan of the Menxia Province was renamed Menxia Shizhong, and the authority of the imperial history platform and the servants of the various ministries was increased.

He needed to finish writing this plan in Jiangxia, hand it over to Taiyuan, and hand it over to Ziwei Pavilion for discussion.

At this moment, someone knocked on the cabin door, and Xiao Yuexian's voice came, "Your Highness, I can come in!" ”

Yang Yuanqing showed a smile on his face, he had already discovered in the morning that Xiao Yuexian was actually not a cold person, from the fact that she fed the egret, he knew that she was a woman who loved life very much, and she actually had a lively side in her heart.

"Please come in!"

The door opened, Xiao Yuexian, who was wearing a purple sè long dress, walked in slowly with a cup of tea, this time she didn't wear a hat again, her black hair was like a cloud, her pretty face was as fine as fat, and her pink light was greasy, she saw Yang Yuanqing staring at her, her face was red, dyed with a touch of sunset.

"It's windy in the morning, so wear a hood." Xiao Yuexian shyly explained the reason for wearing a hat in the morning, and when she got Yang Yuanqing's promise to her father, the anxiety and sorrow in her heart were also swept away, and her heart became clear.

She put the teacup on the table, pursed her lips and smiled: "This is my fried tea, but unfortunately it is not new tea." ”

"Thank you!"

Yang Yuanqing took a closer look at her appearance, and saw that she was abnormally beautiful, and liked her very much, so he smiled slightly and waved his hand, "Sit down!" ”

Xiao Yuexian sat down, although they said that they had a marriage contract, but being alone in a room still made her feel a little shy, she lowered her head, avoided Yang Yuanqing's blazing gaze, and said softly: "I heard Feng Niang say that you have a lot of books here, can you borrow me two, I left in a hurry this time, and I didn't bring out the books." ”

"Huh! I've only brought some books that I read regularly, so I don't know if you like them or not. ”

Yang Yuanqing got up and dragged a heavy bookcase behind him, Xiao Yuexian was happy in her heart, stepped forward and squatted down, looking for her favorite books in the bookcase.

At this moment, she suddenly felt a slight snort in her hair, and her hand was gently grasped by a large, hot hand, and her face turned red.

Your support is my biggest motivation. )
