Chapter Ninety-Four: Distress (I)

Wuling Palace.

When the trilogy grabbed a carrier pigeon and took two steps to find Liu Fang, Liu Fang was immersed in the gentle township, listening to the small song, and closed his eyes comfortably.

"Master Liu, I caught a carrier pigeon next to the Hou Mansion of Yongxiu County, and there is a note on it, you can see it."

The carrier pigeon's paws did grasp the note, Liu Fang heard that the carrier pigeon was caught next to the Huanling mansion, guessing that this must be the letter to Huanling, he immediately cheered up, he took down the note and took a look, and sure enough, he showed a treacherous smile.

"Well done, rewarded," Liu Fang got up, took the note and wanted to find Xiao Ye, he was about to leave, this song stopped him again, shook the carrier pigeon in his hand, and asked: "Master Liu, what to do with this carrier pigeon?" ”

Liu Fang glanced back at the carrier pigeon, and said impatiently: "Take it to the kitchen and tell them to stew soup and make up for the princess." ”

The ministry originally wanted to swallow the carrier pigeon, but it was better for him not to ask, but now when he asked, the carrier pigeon really became a public property.

Liu Fang took the note to Xiao Ye's study, and handed it to Xiao Ye to look at, he held the note the size of a fingernail in both hands, stretched out to Xiao Ye respectfully, nodded and said, "Your Highness, take a look." ”

Xiao Ye looked at the note in Liu Fang's palm, glanced at him suspiciously, and then picked it up, "Guabujiang, can you reach Guangling tonight?" ”

After reading the note, Xiao Ye smiled slightly, he looked sideways at Liu Fang, Liu Fang also smiled: "This was found near the Hou Mansion in Yongxiu County, presumably Xie Zheng passed the book to Huan Ling, the prince and his party set off for the Northern Wei Dynasty yesterday, early this morning, Huan Ling also packed his bags and went out, Xie Zheng passed the book to Huan Ling, must have wanted to meet him." ”

Xiao Ye pondered: "Leaving from Guangling, it seems that I want to go to Surabaya." ”

Liu Fang continued: "The day before yesterday, Shuyi Niangniang sent a message asking you to send someone to get rid of Xie Zheng on the way to the Northern Wei Dynasty, but she set off the day before, and Huan Ling will definitely not be able to catch up with her for a while, Your Highness, now is a good opportunity!" By the way, you can still ......" The further he spoke, the more he lowered his voice, and he didn't say it directly, but hinted at it slightly.

Xiao Ye looked at Liu Fang, as if he was thinking about something, and Liu Fang then continued: "You can inquire about the humble position, the prince and Xie Zheng are on this trip, and there are only four people in total, without bringing a single soldier or a soldier, but they can be easily taken." ”

"Okay, then send someone to ambush in Surabaya, kill Xie Zheng first, as for the prince, if he can kill, he will be killed, if he can't be killed, then leave him a dog's life, without Xie Zheng's help, it won't be long before he is complacent!"

"Yes, let's arrange it."

That night, Xiao Zhen and Xie Zheng and their entourage arrived in Guangling as scheduled, but only stayed for one night, and the next morning they ferried from Guangling to the territory of North Yanzhou (Huaiyin) through Huaishui, and the boat turned southeast at the confluence of Huaishui and Surabaya, and entered the Surabaya basin.

The ship has sailed into the territory of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and today it happens that the southeast wind is blowing again, and the helmsman is sailing, and the journey is quite fast.

Xie Zheng slept for a long time, and didn't wake up until the evening, and now on the passenger ship, she was really bored, Yuzhi came with water to serve her to wash her face, she only wiped her face lightly with a hand towel damp with water, but after wiping her face, she was suddenly stunned, she raised her eyes and stared at the wall of the cabin, her eyes were full of vigilance.

Yuzhi stood aside, seeing that the momentum was not right, he hurriedly asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with the lady?" ”

Xie Zheng glanced sideways at her and whispered, "There are people outside!" ”

Yuzhi was stunned for a moment, took a step closer to her, and said in surprise: "This is a cabin, I'm afraid there is no place to stand outside, how can there be anyone, is the lady too careful?" ”

Xie Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, she lowered her eyes, threw the handkerchief into the copper basin, and said to herself: "Maybe I fell asleep and was confused......"

Before she finished speaking, a knock sounded on the door outside, calling: "Xie Niangzi, are you up?" My husband called you to dinner. ”

It was Yin Luo's voice, and their group was now on the passenger ship, surrounded by mostly businessmen who traveled between the two countries, mixed with fish and dragons, but not as comprehensive as in Jiankang, their speech and demeanor, as well as various titles, must be more cautious.

Without hearing Xie Zheng's response, Yin Luo knocked on the door again and called Yuzhi: "Zhan Niangzi!" Is your master up? ”

Yuzhi hurriedly replied: "It's up!" I am freshening up! ”

"Oh, my family Langjun invited her to dinner, you move quickly."

"Got it, that's good," Yuzhi was impatient, Yin Luo turned around and went back to Xiao Chen, and muttered before leaving: "These women are really troublesome, they have to dress up when they sleep for a while, and they didn't pay so much attention to Da Sima before." ”

Xiao Zhen has already served good wine and food there, after Yin Luo went back to recover his life, not long after, Xie Zheng took the jade branch over, Xiao Zhen sat on the table, Xie Zheng approached quickly, and said with a smile: "Shicai slept for a while, so His Royal Highness waited for a long time." ”

"It's okay, sit down," Xiao Zhen pointed to the mat opposite, and said again: "There are not many ingredients on the boat, I want a few things, borrow their kitchen to make a few home-cooked dishes, you can taste them." ”

Xie Zheng looked at the dishes on the dining table and was surprised for a moment, "I didn't expect His Highness to cook!" ”

She was overjoyed for a while, relaxed her vigilance, and actually called Xiao Zhen His Royal Highness, Xiao Zhen hurriedly signaled her to silence, she reacted at this time, and laughed apologetically, Xiao Zhen said: "When I was in Liang County before, there was a Lingnan cook who accompanied the army, and he made a good dish, I learned from him for a few days, you can taste it and see how it tastes." ”

The guest is as the host, Xie Zheng originally wanted Xiao Zhen to start chopsticks first, and then she ate later, but now Xiao Zhen wants her to taste the dishes, so she naturally moves the chopsticks first, and she tastes a few dishes on the dining table, and praises her chin: "The color and flavor are good, but they are better." ”

Xiao Zhen was stunned for a moment, and didn't seem to agree with Xie Zheng's evaluation, he also tasted it with chopsticks, and said: "I don't taste it, maybe my mouth is heavy, and your mouth is light." ”

"Eating vegetables north of the Huai River, Lang Jun has been in Liang County for three years, so he must have been used to it."

Xiao Zhen laughed and said, "It's good to have a heavy mouth, so it's more fragrant to eat." It's been a long time since I've cooked, so don't dislike it. ”

Xie Zheng also smiled: "It's my honor to be able to eat the meal made by Lang Jun himself, how can I dislike it." ”

"Then you can eat more," Xiao Zheng didn't say a word, picked up chopsticks and added vegetables to Xie Zheng's bowl, and divided her bowl by two to pile her bowl into a hill.

After the meal, Xie Zheng and Xiao Zhen went to the deck to spread food, and the two stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the night scene on both sides of Surabaya, and talked happily for a while.

While talking, Xie Zheng suddenly heard a slight strange sound underwater, she looked around suspiciously, and Xiao Zhen asked, "What's wrong?" ”

She shouldn't have put on such a vigilant face in front of Xiao Zhen, so she hurriedly explained: "It's not much, I just feel that the farther north, the heavier the cold becomes." ”

"Deeper exposure, wear more clothes, beware of the cold," Xiao Zhen said, and took off the big coat on his body, and was about to drape it on Xie Zheng's body, Xie Zheng avoided suspicion, hurriedly pushed his hand away, and said with a smile: "Lang Jun has a heavy responsibility, so be more careful." ”

After she said that, she turned to look at Yuzhi standing behind her, and ordered, "Yuzhi, go to my room and bring my cloak." ”

Yuzhi agreed, and then left, Xiao Zhen then instructed Yin Luo: "Yin Luo, you go to the kitchen to ask for a few bowls of ginger tea." ”

Yin Luo followed Yuzhi's footsteps and followed him into the cabin, and the two of them stepped forward, and on the back foot, there were bursts of frightened cries from the boat: "Oh no! The boat is leaking! The boat is leaking! ”
