At noon the day after tomorrow, Yu Tianzheng appeared on time to pick up Du Xiaomeng.

As usual, he came in a low-key manner in the simple carriage driven by Zhao Yun. However, cars are very ordinary cars, but people are not ordinary people.

Today, he wears a jade crown on his head, a round-necked plain gown with dark woven flowers that reaches to his feet, a knee-length black vertical collar wide-sleeved tunic with a red dragon on his waist, and a white jade belt with python pattern red sun inlaid with tight edges, and a mutton fat white jade pendant. On closer inspection, the collar and cuffs of his coat were covered with silver-white piping, and the delicate green bamboo pattern was embroidered on them. He plays such a role, and he has the style of a prince and a nobleman.

As for Yu Xiaorui, she is wearing a simple but luxurious light purple and red dress, with two small golden bells in two bulging buns on the top of her head, as long as she moves, there will be a jingle bell on her head, which is very cute.

Looking at the big and small ones who walked out of the car, Du Xiaomeng couldn't help but glance at his body. Because she thought that she should wear something simple when she went out to play, she was dressed today with the theme of simplicity and convenience. She has returned to a single and unmarried state, she didn't comb her hair in a bun or anything, even if she combed all her hair and tied it back to the back of her head, she was wearing a very ordinary apricot yellow dress.

Dressed like this, standing next to Yu Tianzheng and Yu Xiaorui, will it look particularly shabby? This thought just flashed in Du Xiaomeng's mind, but it didn't cause any psychological burden on her. There are other more important things in her heart, how can she be in the mood to care about other things?

There is something hidden in her heart, and Du Xiaomeng doesn't plan to hide anything. After the fake identity was recognized, everything returned to zero, she was already a person with no secrets, standing in front of Yu Tianzheng with such a new identity, she didn't plan to calculate him or anything, so there was no need to pretend to be this and that anymore to hide her true emotions.

The expression on her face was obvious, which made Yu Tianzheng, who came to pick her up, see at a glance that she had something on her mind.

Seeing her frowning and walking out of the general's mansion with an absent-minded look, Yu Tianzheng's heart couldn't help but swish. The day before yesterday, I was very happy to see that she was still alive and vibrant, why did she become like this wilting after two nights? He couldn't help but make a groundless guess in his heart: Could it be that she didn't like to go out with him?

After getting into the car, Yu Tianzheng asked tentatively: "Miss Du, I see that your face is not very good, is there something uncomfortable?" ”

Du Xiaomeng came back to her senses and saw that Yu Xiaorui, who was sitting next to her, was looking up at herself, she pulled away a smile and replied, "No, I'm just thinking about things." As she said this, she glanced at Yu Xiaorui, and then glanced at Yu Tianzheng with a connotative gaze.

She subconsciously didn't want to talk about tricks, murders and the like in front of a child.

Yu Tianzheng understood the meaning in her gaze, so he just smiled and didn't ask any further.

The car starts and departs for the destination. In the car, Yu Xiaorui kept pulling Du Xiaomeng to talk about that, and from time to time laughed and shouted that Du Xiaomeng stretched out his head out of the window to look at the scenery. With Yu Xiaorui, a little cutie chirping on the side, time seems to pass very fast, and it is not a short journey, Du Xiaomeng feels that it is here to get in the car and arrive at the other end.

got out of the car, looked at the vermilion gate that appeared in front of him, the mighty bronze lion shop, and the two big words "Zhangfu" on the lintel, Du Xiaomeng felt a little surprised. Didn't you say to go to the lake? The place that appeared in front of me was obviously a large family's house, where did it look like a lake? Not to mention that this place is not like a lake, I haven't seen a drop of water before and after! What about the lake?

Yu Tianzheng saw the doubts in Du Xiaomeng's heart, and he explained with a smile: "The backyard of this family is on the shore of Yanliu Lake, where their own pleasure boat is docked, and we don't have to go outside to squeeze with others when we borrow their boat to swim in the lake." ”

While speaking, Zhao Yun had already stepped forward to knock on the door, and after only two taps, a beautiful young man came to answer the door.

The young man respectfully welcomed Yu Tianzheng and his party into the door, and said, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, my master has been waiting in the backyard for a long time, please follow the villain." ”

"Okay." Yu Tianzheng didn't say half a word of nonsense, picked up Yu Xiaorui and walked forward behind the young man.

It didn't take long for the teenager to take the group to the backyard.

Coming to this so-called "backyard", Du Xiaomengleng looked at the scene in front of her with wide eyes, and only after watching it for a while did she know how to come back to her senses.

What appeared in front of me was a wide clearing, and an ordinary-looking, not-so-large ship was docked less than twenty meters ahead. Between the boat and the shore is a wooden plank more than a meter wide for people to get on and off, and behind the boat is a sparkling surface of water that seems to be invisible. A three-meter-wide road paved with bluestone bricks stretches from the gate to the front of the boat, with two rows of willow trees and various flowers planted on both sides of the road.

This unusually large place, is it sure to be someone's backyard? Not a dock?

"His Royal Highness the Prince, are you here?"

When Du Xiaomeng walked behind Yu Tianzheng and observed the current environment suspiciously, a gentle female voice came from a certain direction. She followed the sound and saw a beautiful woman in green who appeared on the boat at some point, and she stepped on the planks of the boat and walked down from the boat, and walked towards them with flowers and willows.

Yu Xiaorui nestled in her father's arms and looked curiously at the people who walked by, and Du Xiaomeng also put her eyes on the people who came.

At a glance, it was a mature beauty.

Willow eyebrows, peach blossom eyes, melon seed face, and a slender waist that is less than a hand. The beautiful woman approached and saw that she was rouge and smeared, with a faint smile on her delicate face, and two dimples appeared slightly.

Yu Tianzheng stood in place, smiled and said to the beauty: "After a few years, Madame's demeanor is even better than before." ”

The beautiful woman in green walked in front of Yu Tianzheng, saluted, got up, and said with a faint smile on her face: "Your Highness is smiling." All the women on board are ready, and Your Highness can board the ship at any time. ”

Yu Tianzheng nodded and said, "That's good." The king first went to the lake, and then turned around and gossiped with his wife. ”

The beautiful woman in green smiled softly and said, "The woman will go and prepare refreshments and wait for Her Highness's return." After that, she saluted Yu Tianzheng again, nodded lightly to Du Xiaomeng as a greeting, and then left with the young man who led the way.

Yu Tianzheng turned back to Du Xiaomeng and said, "Miss Du, let's get on the boat." ”

He boarded the boat very familiarly, and Du Xiaomeng hurriedly followed.

On the boat, several people who seemed to be slaves came out from behind the cabin and knelt down to Yu Tianzheng and saluted: "Meet His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Du Xiaomeng noticed that among those people, there was a very powerful white-haired old man with a hunched back, and the old man's hand was holding the young blind girl beside him.

Even the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled are brought on the boat to serve as servants? Isn't this Liufu so inhumane?

Du Xiaomeng's heart was chattering, Yu Tianzheng had already asked the kneeling person to get up, and made a gesture to her to ask her to go to the cabin.
