Although the boat is a little small, there is no less than what it should have, and the boatman's asking price is quite reasonable, so Xie Qingyu agreed, after all, it is relatively urgent to go to the capital.

After giving the money, the two bought some food at the pier to bring on the way to the capital, and then went on the road.

——

On top of the official ship.

"Miss, you are still smart, so easily you got rid of Xie Qingyu." Flowing water looked at the official ship that had traveled dozens of miles, and Jiang Ning behind him had already disappeared, and flattered Xie leisurely.

"Flowing water, it's on the official ship at the moment, don't say much, it's my sister who missed the time, what does it have to do with me?"

Xie Youran chuckled lightly at this moment, looked at the dock behind that had long been gone, and felt so unhappy in his heart, Xie Qingyu What are you fighting with me now, you can't go to the capital!

"It's Miss, Flowing Water knows." Liushui listened to Xie Youran's words, and although he said so, he was already smiling on his face.

The officers and soldiers around all looked at the two with serious faces, and then the two returned to their previous indifferent appearances.

It is a centuries-old tradition for the official ship to escort the selected candidates from the Jiangnan region into Beijing, especially according to the auspicious time to depart, Xie Qingyu is now missing the time, and the official ship has received hundreds of young ladies of the family, and will definitely not wait for her Xie Qingyu alone.

Xie Youran began to prepare all this as early as when Xie Qingyu had just returned, and even the route was ready.

With such a net, Xie Qingyu will definitely not be able to avoid it!

——

"Miss, the eldest lady is really hateful, she has come up with such a bad trick!" Asaaki still looked angry in the cabin.

"This time I accidentally fell for her calculations." Xie Qingyu shook her head, she should have noticed these a long time ago, but Xie Youran noticed it and successfully dragged her into the water.

Asaaki didn't answer, still puffing up.

"Forget it, now that we are on the boat to the capital, Xie Youran is just a few days ahead of us." Xie Qingyu looked at the angry Qianqiu and comforted him.

"Miss, I'm just angry, she said in front of the master that she would take care of Miss, and she was against Miss everywhere behind her back." Qianqiu looked at Xie Qingyu's indifferent appearance, and was even more worried in her heart, and now that she had not yet arrived in the capital, the eldest lady treated their young lady like this.

"It's okay, we just need to see the tricks when we get to the capital." Xie Qingyu looked at the very calm river outside the cabin and sighed.

"Two girls, I don't know why I went to Beijing in such an urgent situation this time?" At this time, the boatman rocked the boat from the bow and chatted with the two men.

"We are going to the capital to visit relatives this time, and we didn't catch up with the merchant ship that was scheduled before for a while, and we were afraid that the deadline would be delayed, so we found you." Xie Qingyu looked at the boat family at this moment and chatted very well, but it was indispensable to guard against people, and she didn't say it in too much detail.

Although it was for the exam, it could be regarded as taking refuge in the Xie family, so it was not that she was lying.

"Then you can be regarded as the right person, my boat, notoriously safe, you have to sit well." When the boatman heard this, he did not suspect it, and said to himself.

"Okay boatman." Xie Qingyu is very popular.

A few people then went on the road lightly, and along the way, Xie Qingyu looked at the scenery on both sides of the strait, and his mood was even more happy, so it seems that it is not a bad thing not to set off with Xie Youran.

Two days later.

Several people hurried day and night, and they had already walked half the way, and there were only less than three days left in the capital.

"Miss, what do you think is that?"

At this moment, Asaaki pointed to something strange on the river and asked suspiciously.

Xie Qingyu was originally drinking tea leisurely, but suddenly heard Qianqiu's words, and quickly turned his head to take a closer look.

When the few people got closer, the boatman noticed something strange and hurriedly reminded the two.

"I said two girls, let's not ask for trouble, there are inexplicably more of these things on this river, it's unlucky."

"Let's go over and see first, maybe there will be salvation." Xie Qingyu looked at the people not far away at this moment, no different from ordinary people, there was no sign of half a drowning person at all.

"Okay, okay, if something happens, it's none of my business." The boatman looked at the two of them impatiently at the moment, and said helplessly.

Then the boat overtook the floating figure, and when it got closer, it was a woman.

Seeing this, several people hurriedly pulled her up, and Xie Qingyu hurriedly approached the woman and snorted.

"Qianqiu, move her to a spacious place, she still has gas!" Xie Qingyu obviously felt the aura of the strange woman, and she was not dead yet.

Then several people moved the woman to the deck of the cabin, and Xie Qingyu used the first aid method he had learned all his life from TV to press the woman's chest.

Sure enough, after a few strokes, the woman seemed to be choked by the water, and coughed straight away, choking out a lot of water.

After a few moments, she finally came to her senses and looked at the strange things in front of her.

"Where am I?" The woman touched her head in confusion and asked.

"You fainted on the river, it was our young lady who saved you!" Qianqiu looked at the person in front of her, and also felt that it was very magical, the young lady actually gave the person to life.

"I'm saved! I was truly saved! The woman seemed to be very excited when she heard this, and she got up from the deck and looked at everything around her, which was a strange environment, and she was saved, she was saved!

"What happened to you, girl?" Xie Qingyu looked at the woman who was very excited as soon as she woke up, and asked curiously for a while.

"Thank you for the rescue, I can't hide that I am a candidate for the female official election in Mobei to Beijing, but when we were rerouted, we met the bandits and hijacked our boat, the bandits not only robbed money, he killed the men on the entire boat, all killed!"

"Later, when they tried to rob us back, I jumped into the water in a hurry, and when I woke up, I came to you."

After hearing Xie Qingyu's inquiry, the woman hurriedly told the whole story, and her rather weak body trembled because of fear.

"Girl, it's okay, you're safe." Xie Qingyu also patted the woman's shoulder at this moment and comforted her softly.

The woman listened to Xie Qingyu's words and nodded incessantly, but her tears never stopped.

It's just that the woman was rescued from the river, and her whole body was already soaked, Xie Qingyu saw this and hurriedly helped the woman to a small room and changed her into clean clothes.

"Girl, you are really kind people, thank you for saving me this time and giving me clothes to wear." After the woman changed her clothes, she hurriedly got up and bowed to Xie Qingyu.

"It's okay, saving someone's life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, are you going to the capital next? We're heading to the capital, but if you want to divert home, we'll drop you off at the nearest pier. Xie Qingyu also didn't expect to meet the woman who went to Beijing together on the river, so he opened his mouth to ask.

The woman only had time to look at Xie Qingyu at this time, although it was a small boat, Xie Qingyu was wearing good clothes on his body, and there was a girl with him.

"I'm going to Beijing, the little girl's house has long been empty, this time I came out to fly and caused a catastrophe and now I'm glad to be saved, if I go home, I may never have the opportunity to come to the capital again." The woman hurriedly shook her head, she definitely won't go home, Mobei's family has long been gone, and she is just one person when she goes back now, and she may even be married off by her uncle, she doesn't want to.

As she spoke, the woman seemed to feel extremely aggrieved and cried again, regretting what happened to her.

"I'll send you to Beijing, and it just so happens that our group is also going to Beijing." Xie Qingyu looked at the woman in front of her who couldn't stop crying, and she didn't know how to comfort her, and there was a trace of sympathy in her eyes, and the woman's statement that she had no relatives at home touched her even more.

"Thank you benefactor, thank you benefactor." When the woman heard this, she was even more grateful to Xie Qingyu in her heart, and knelt straight and kowtowed.

"Girl, get up quickly, hurry up, I'm just doing it." Seeing this, Xie Qingyu hurriedly squatted down and helped the woman up.

"Thank you, benefactor." The woman slowly got up and wiped the undried tears on her face with her hands.

"Don't ask for the benefactor's name, I see that I am two years old, I don't know what the girl's name is?" Xie Qingyu looked at the woman in front of him, waved his hand, and asked.

"The little woman's name is Huo Xiangjun, I don't know what the name of the benefactor is?" Huo Xiangjun looked at Xie Qingyu with a curious expression.

"My name is Xie Qingyu." Xie Qingyu did not shy away from it this time, she knew that they would definitely meet again after they arrived in the capital, and there was no need to use a fake name at all.

"Miss, I prepared fish soup, just to replenish this girl's body and drive away the cold." At this time, Qianqiu called softly outside the door.

"She's my girl Qianqiu, let's go, she prepared fish soup for you, let's drink some first." Xie Qingyu looked at Huo Xiangjun at this time, although he had changed his clothes, his hair was still dripping, and the whole person was trembling because of the cold.

After saying that, the two of them got out of the narrow cabin together, and came to the splint, where the meal had been prepared, and the boat was still moving gently on the river.

"Miss, girl, come and sit down." Qianqiu saw the two of them come out and hurriedly greeted them.

"Miss Huo, please take a seat." Xie Qingyu helped Huo Xiangjun to the position, and then sat down by himself.

As soon as Huo Xiangjun sat down, his eyes lit up when he saw this dazzling delicacies, but the chopsticks under his hand did not move.

"Miss Huo, why don't you use chopsticks? But the dish is not to your liking? Xie Qingyu saw Huo Xiangjun's hesitation and asked slowly.

"No, no, I'm just a little excited, and now you not only saved me, gave me clothes to wear, but also let me eat such delicious meals." Huo Xiangjun's voice was very small, if it wasn't for Xie Qingyu listening carefully, otherwise he wouldn't have heard it.

Xie Qingyu chuckled lightly after hearing it, originally she thought that the girls in Mobei were all heroic women, but now the Huo Xiangjun she saw gave birth to a little sentimentality of Jiangnan women.

"Miss Huo, you can try Qianqiu's craftsmanship, my girl's cooking skills are very good." Xie Qingyu then praised Qianqiu's cooking skills, these days she always said that she would make a few dishes, but Qianqiu kept stopping, she also became a rice worm, sitting lazily on the bed every day.
