Chapter 260: The Visitor from the Lonely Island (Part I) (Five Watches, Ten Thousand Days)

Shu'er and Lin Ying jumped from the ginkgo tree to the palace wall, and saw two young men of similar height standing under the palace wall.

Shu'er frowned, not knowing why Dongfang was here. Lin Ying was unhurried and beckoned to Dongfang and Mo Yutan: "You two are here!" ”

Shu'er said to Lin Ying: "I'll pull the rope and send you down slowly." ”

After Lin Ying landed on the ground, she untied the knot around her waist. Shu'er threw the rope in his hand vigorously to a thick branch of the ancient ginkgo tree, and the rope was wrapped around the branch, so Shu'er pulled the other end of the rope and swung it in front of Dongfang Shou like a swing.

Dongfang sighed twice and said, "It's such a low wall, you two have to climb trees and swing...... There is a kind of kung fu in this world called 'light gong', and you really should know about it. ”

Shu'er glared at Dongfang and saw that there was no one around, so she asked angrily, "Why are you here?" Daddy asked you to come? Who else knows that I'm going to take the crown prince out of Zhaohuang Palace tonight? ”

Dongfang folded his hands on his hips, glared at Shu'er, and said, "What do you mean by 'why are you here'?" Your brother is me, not Brother Lin! And 'Dad', it's time for you to change your name to 'Father'. ”

Shu'er said solemnly: "Little Dongfang, this matter is not child's play. Do you know your Brother Lin's current situation? Do you know that many people are waiting to see how our 'Father' and the Lin family's 'His Royal Highness the Prince' are incompatible? I will take your brother Lin to a safe place, and you are not allowed to follow us. ”

Dongfang sighed helplessly, and said, "Sister, Brother Lin, don't worry, although I was sent by my father to find you, my father did not send me to prevent you from leaving Zhaohuang Palace." ”

Shu'er raised her eyebrows and said, "Do you know that there can only be one prince of Chu State?" It's not you, Brother Lin, it's you! Why did Daddy let you come along? ”

Dongfang was about to answer, but he heard Mo Yutan, who had been silent on the side, and said in a low voice: "Let's get out of here quickly, talk as we go, and don't attract attention." So he led the three of them towards the uninhabited palace alley to the north.

Shu'er took Dongfang Yan's arm and continued to ask, "What did Dad let you do with us?" ”

Dongfang was so scared that Shu'er let Shu'er pull him, and he didn't break free, and replied peacefully: "My father said that after some time, when the Song army withdraws, he will kill the six kings, and he will never suffer from it." During this period, the forces of all parties were mixed, and it was difficult to distinguish friend from foe, and Brother Lin and I were not safe to stay in the palace. If you disappeared tonight, we knew that you must have gone to find Brother Lin, so my father asked me to come to you and go out of the palace with you to avoid the limelight. ”

Shu'er asked again: "The prince's Xiyu Palace is so big, how do you know that we will come out from here?" ”

Dongfang rolled his eyes and said, "You two don't know how to work lightly, there is this big tree nearby, and I will wait for the rabbit here." ”

The four of them were speeding in the night, Lin Ying and Shu'er, who knew neither light skills nor internal skills, were a little out of breath, only Dongfang Xuan and Mo Yutan walked like flying, and their breath was even.

Shu'er stopped talking, and secretly reflected in her heart, she actually suspected her father and brother, for fear that Dongfang was sent by her father to murder Lin Ying. Even Lin Ying didn't doubt them, why was she so sensitive?

She couldn't help but wonder: "Do I want a truth and the faith behind the truth, or have I regarded Xiaoying as a close relative all these years?" Although I have been protecting him, and he has relied on me very much, at the restoration banquet of the country, when I was most embarrassed and helpless, the first thing I thought of was Xiaoying, not calmly, nor my brother. All these years, am I protecting him, or is he protecting me? Is he dependent on me, or am I relying on him unconsciously? ”

Shu'er couldn't figure out why, so she felt that she was just concerned about it.

At this time, Mo said in vain: "Madam, in fact, it is very good for Dongfang Gongzi to follow you. Xiao Mo has already helped you catch the six kings, and has already done the errand assigned by his grandfather, and this time he left Linjiang, and he wanted to return to Xuanji Island. You and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, when you walk outside, you should also have a person with strong martial arts to accompany you. ”

Dongfang nodded shou, but suddenly said unhappily: "Xiao Mo, although I am strong in martial arts, I am also the object of protection!" Why should I protect them both? So who will protect me? Why do you have to go back to that remote island in the East China Sea? Wouldn't it be good to follow us around the country of Chu? ”

Xiao Mo shook his head and said: "Grandpa is old, and many things on the island can no longer be handled by him alone. Xiao Mo has to go back. ”

Dongfang sighed for a long time, suddenly rolled his eyes, and asked with a smile: "Xiao Mo, I haven't been to Xuanji Island yet!" If you want to ask where the Chu country is the safest, it must be your isolated island! Otherwise, you can take us to the island for a few days, okay? ”

Mo Yutan looked at Shu'er and said, "This is to ask our young master's wife." ”

Shu'er thought for a moment and said, "Xuanji Island is indeed the safest place in the Chu Kingdom, because except for a few cronies of the Zhuge family, no one knows the location of that island. ”

Lin Ying knew that Shu'er had no intention of taking him to hide in Xuanji's isolated island. Thinking that she is separated from Brother Rong, Xuanji's lonely island is her sad place. He gently tugged at Shu'er's sleeve and said, "Sister Shu'er, the seven counties of Chu State, some of them are our hiding places, why bother going to sea?" If there is a case in the boat, we will have to feed the fish, one big and one small, the princes. ”

Dongfang pursed his lips and asked Mo Yutan: "Xiao Mo, I heard that the ships of your Zhuge family have been traveling between Jintan and the isolated island for five hundred years, how many boats have had a chance?" ”

Mo Yutan replied: "Foolproof." Just in case, we have strict conditions for going to sea. The weather, wind direction, and ship conditions all need to be carefully observed and never forced. ”

The four of them stopped at a corner of the palace wall, Dongfang raised his chin and said to Lin Ying: "Brother Lin, don't be afraid, we can't feed the fish." ”

Lin Ying ignored Dongfang's sorrow, turned her head and asked Shu'er softly, "Sister Shu'er, do you still want to go to Xuanji Island?" ”

Without waiting for Shu'er to answer, Dongfang pushed Lin Ying away, came to Shu'er's side, and said, "Sister, you are the wife of the next island owner, as long as you give an order, I can finally understand what it is like to 'sail away' that Brother Rong said." Moreover, he also said that there is a tomb of King Zhou Le on the island! ”

Shu'er explained: "Brother Rong and you ...... It's not together anymore. Actually, it's not convenient for me to go to the isolated island anymore......"

Dongfang was struggling to stick in his waist again, learning to look like an adult, and said: "You and Brother Rong are just having a small fight, and they will definitely be reconciled after a while!" Moreover, if you don't reconcile with Brother Rong, in the whole world, is there a second brother who can be worthy of my sister? ”

Mo Yutan also said: "Since Mrs. left Weiguo, the island owner and young master have never believed that Mrs. can not go to the island. ”
