At first warm and cold, a thin layer of ice floes rose on the surface of the water at night, and as the hull of the ship ran over and cracked piece by piece, it creaked and creaked, alternating with the sound of the wind, and the chill was so cold that it hurt like a knife on the face.

The man in the green shirt stood on the bow of the boat, his face was always gloomy, so the boatman did not dare to talk to him, but sighed in his heart that he didn't look at the yellow calendar when he went out today.

Their journey was smooth sailing, and they traveled extremely fast, much brisker than the big ship full of goods, and when it was close to dawn, Song Fengming looked up and saw the unburned fishing fire on the cargo ship not far away, and his heart almost rose to his throat.

He looked for Yun Hanbei for a whole day and a night, who knows if she will be in any danger.

Urging the ship's family to hurry closer, the people on the cargo ship were drowsy, and only one or two patrolling men saw him from the deck, and shouted vigilantly, "What man! ”

Five or six strong men immediately jumped out of the cabin, their eyes were open, and they were busy showing a fierce expression before they woke up, and when they saw Song Fengming flying into the boat, although his skills were good, but he was alone, the big man led by him breathed a sigh of relief.

He should be a water thief, but he turned out to be just a scholar.

"Who are you, do you want to rob?" After finishing his words, there was a burst of laughter, but those people stopped halfway through the laughter, watching Song Fengming's escape from the waist card that had no time to retract the corners of his mouth, baring his teeth as if he had been beaten.

"Routine checks."

The thin lips spit out four words, only to see the boat boss swallow his throat and take a few steps back, although he looks fierce, but he is also a responsible person, and there is nothing unsightly on the ship.

But the water transport in the north has just begun, in the past he only sent some goods in the Yanbo River, today I came to Kyoto for the first time, for fear that there is something that the official family prohibits civilians from transporting, in case of encountering a fault, knock them hard, then not only this boat business is not profitable, I am afraid that it will have to lose a lot of money.

Thinking about it like this, it is inevitable that evil will be born to the guts, anyway, this is the only one person who came, if it is really unreasonable, it is a big deal to throw it into the river to feed the fish.

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that Song Fengming was here to rip off the bamboo, after all, if it was really an inspection, wouldn't it be possible to wear official uniforms in groups.

"What to check, we don't have anything to check here." wanted to give him a dismount, the boat boss raised his hand and was about to push him, but the man restrained his arm, and was pushed out several steps with his strength.

"Hey, how can you hit someone?" Several strong men then surrounded them, and Song Fengming raised his eyes to look at them, looking more and more impatient.

"What, to rebel?"

At this moment, a female voice suddenly pierced the night sky, and before the boat boss could react to what was going on, the man ran out like an arrow from a string.

"What's the sound, how can there be a woman on the boat, is it the fourth child who brought a woman on the boat?" opened his mouth to ask his brothers, they are men who run by water all year round floating on the river, gathering less with their wives and families, and some of them can't bear the loneliness will hook up with some hook women when unloading, but they have never brought them on the boat.

"He doesn't know that bringing a woman on the boat will affect his luck, no wonder we were checked!" He snorted and said, and then followed.

When Song Fengming opened the door of the cabin, Yun Hanbei was standing in the corner trembling, the sun was rising, and the dazzling sunlight was blocked by him, the woman raised her head and looked at the person blankly, the halo was scattered in the folds of the man's clothes, and his whole person was plated with a layer of gold edges, as if the gods had descended, and Yun Hanbei almost had tears in his eyes the moment he saw him clearly.

"Song Fengming...."Rushed over aggrievedly, wishing that the whole person was wrapped around him, "There are rats on the boat." ”

The anger that had been held back suddenly disappeared at this moment, Song Fengming stroked her back and said softly, "Don't be afraid." ”

"It's a?" I don't know who suddenly said this, and before he opened his mouth, the boss of the other boat glared fiercely and shut up.

"What about the boat license for you to and from Yanbo River, I don't know if the cargo ship can't carry the people, are you tired of being crooked?" Song Fengming's words were like knives, Yun Hanbei had never seen him like this, he was a little scared for a while, and he distanced himself from him a little.

The boss of the ship scratched his head and looked annoyed, and was hesitating how to respond, when he suddenly heard someone outside report that there were many small boats around the cargo ship, all of which were hung with the "Song" flag.

The Yun family has been in charge of water transportation for many years, and even though Yun Hanbei's grandfather is now in power, everyone is still used to calling him Yun Sikong.

However, the one who is really in power now is Yun Lao's grandson-in-law, the upstart of the imperial court, Song Fengming.

"It's really the new official who has taken office with three fires," the man on the side muttered, thinking that Lord Song wanted to show his majesty, so he sent his subordinates to board the ship in the middle ......of the night to check, but before the words fell, he heard the woman pretending to be a scholar speak.

"Song Fengming, I gave them a lot of money, but they didn't give me a good place to live, you see, they grinded their teeth and snored and farted, and I didn't sleep well all night....."

Everyone present was stunned for a while, what is the situation, sending his daughter-in-law to be a spy?

"They forced you?"

Hearing this, the boat boss hurriedly waved his hand, "Lord Song, don't wronged people, it's... It was your lady who had to get on board. ”

"I wanted to get on the ship, but they said that there were no people on the ship, I said I would give money, and they asked how much, I said five taels, and they exchanged glances and let me live on the deck, how can I sleep there, I asked if I could live in the cabin, and they said yes, five taels is not enough."

finally looked forward to someone who could support him, Yun Hanbei complained from beginning to end, completely forgetting that he was the initiator of the whole thing, "In the end, it was increased to fifty taels, and I still squeezed together with them....."

Pointing to the small corner, she didn't even want to lie down, and kept shrinking in the corner.

"It's no longer right for a cargo ship to carry people, and it's actually ripping off." The man frowned, the subtext is that you have made Lao Tzu very unhappy by letting her on the boat, and she is also cheating, which is simply a crime.

"Mrs. Song, you are a bit of a wicked person to sue first, if you don't want to die or live on the boat, then we can't make mistakes....."

Before he finished speaking, he was beaten by a man, Song Fengming turned his wrist, looked at the frightened Yun Hanbei, grabbed the collar of the boat boss and dragged the person out directly.

Outside, the dry bones and wolves howled, and several people in the house looked at each other for a while, especially those crew members, looking at Yun Hanbei's eyes became more and more complaining, their boss is also a well-known tough guy, when did he make people fight so badly.
