Chapter 823: Out to Sea

Xiao Yuhan didn't stay long and left soon.

Xie Mingxi and Sheng Hong, the young emperors and queens, are intimate in front of people, and they are even more intimate in private.

As soon as Xiao Yuhan left, Sheng Hong naturally walked to Xie Mingxi's side, hugged her shoulder, and asked with a low smile: "Have you eaten with the imperial sister-in-law tonight?" ”

Xie Mingxi smiled and hummed: "I have not taken over the palace affairs, and the imperial sister-in-law is worried. ”

Sheng Hong laughed when he heard this: "The imperial sister-in-law is indeed soft and kind-hearted. ”

It's a pity that Sheng Che, who is married to a wolf-hearted dog!

As soon as Sheng Che died, Xiao Yuhan had to be widowed at a young age, which was really regrettable.

"Sister Xiao has a deep affection for her husband," Xie Mingxi suddenly changed his former title, and a hint of coolness flashed in his eyes: "But the affectionate trust is not human." Sheng Che has always been thinking about Sister Yin in his heart, and he once intended to be light. ”

There are no real secrets in the palace.

Few people know about this "secret". Xie Mingxi and Sheng Hong now know it.

Sheng Hong's eyes flashed with hatred, contempt, and disgust: "If it weren't for the third brother's lust and dizziness, the fifth brother wouldn't have acted in anger." ”

In the final analysis, Emperor Jian'an was killed by himself.

If he is a little tolerant, if he does not force his siblings, if he does not want to force the king of Ningxia to commit suicide, if he is kind to King Lu, if he does not show ill intentions towards Yin Xiaoxiao......

There are no ifs.

Emperor Jian'an died when he died, but he harmed everyone around him.

The husband and wife embraced each other silently, and after a while, Xie Mingxi suddenly said softly: "King Lu and King Min should also be sent to sea now!" ”

Counting the time, it has been more than a month since that day when "poisoned wine gave death".

Sheng Hong nodded, and looked in the direction of Fujian: "I hope that the second brother and the fifth brother will not hold grudges in their hearts and cherish the new life." ”

The mandarin duck wine jug contained two different wines.

The king of Ningxia drank real poisonous wine. The "poisonous wine" drunk by King Lu and King Min was fake. It is mixed with a secret medicine, which can make people appear dead in two hours. After three hours, the man will wake up.

This flavor medicine is also from Xie Mingxi's hands.

This plan of "hiding from the sky and crossing the sea" has been concealed from the Empress Dowager Yu, Yin Xiaoxiao, Zhao Changqing, and the ministers.

On that day, Sheng Hong personally collected the bodies of several brothers and put them in coffins. When he was transported out of the palace for burial, he quietly dropped his bag. The "King of Lu" and "King Min" buried were the corpses of two death row prisoners who were poured with poisoned wine. The two death row prisoners are similar in stature to King Lu and King Min. As time goes by, the face of the corpse will decay, and even if someone digs the grave, there will be no abnormality.

The real King of Lu and King Min was secretly sent to Fujian by Sheng Hong's secret guards.

There is no more prosperity in the world!

……

For those who have never been to Fujian and have never seen the sea, it is difficult to imagine the boundless vastness and magnificence of the sea.

In a wide sea boat, the sea breeze is salty and wet, and it sways in the waves day and night, shaking people dizzy and shaking their stomachs with pantothenic acid. People who go to sea all year round have long been accustomed to this kind of life. Those who sail on a boat for the first time will inevitably suffer.

"Gross!"

The emaciated, emaciated but handsome young man lay on the railing of the boat and vomited, almost throwing up his heart, liver, gallbladder and lungs.

The other, a young man a few years older, was not much better. vomited for a few days in a row, and his handsome face was sallow and weak. The whole body smelled of rancidness.

The young man vomited once, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, and his whole body collapsed and weakened. Mian Li glanced up at the drowsy sky, and said in a low voice, "Second brother, let's go back to the cabin." ”

The other young man hummed with an ugly face.

A pair of brothers and sisters who vomited in the darkness supported each other back to the cabin.

In this fleet, there are a total of five seagoing vessels.

The three-storey sea ship can accommodate more than 100 people on the lowest floor. The second and third floors are full of goods. Such as tea, salt, cotton, ironware, and the like.

These most common goods in Daqi, once transported to the sea and arrived on Barbarian Island, could be exchanged for ships of precious spices and jade jewelry. As long as you can return from the sea safely, you can earn an amazing fortune.

Most of the wealthy businessmen in Fujian started by going to sea.

It's just that going to sea is never easy. The amount of gold and silver required to build a ship that could go to sea was a staggering amount. In addition, it is necessary to hire people who are good at identifying the direction of navigation at sea with a lot of money, and dozens of experienced sailors.

There are pirates on the sea, and on the large and small barbarian islands, there are often bandits who rob and rob goods. When the merchants went to sea, they had to bring two or three hundred guards with them. The cost of settling in for these guards is another high amount.

It takes about two years to go to sea once, to say the least. Sometimes it takes even longer. In the event of a huge wave at sea, it may be completely annihilated, and the ship's cargo and people, all of which will be swallowed up by the sea.

As a result, the cost of going to sea is extremely huge, and ordinary businessmen simply cannot afford it. Only the wealthy businessmen in Fujian have the ability to go to sea.

Some merchants paid a high fee and went to sea with the merchant ships of the wealthy merchants.

This time, when the fleet went to sea, there were more than a dozen merchants holding gold and silver, begging to go to sea together.

Among them, there is also a pair of Xie brothers who claim to be from the capital. One calls himself Xie Er Gongzi, and the other calls himself Xie Wu Gongzi. Although the two are thin, they are handsome and extraordinary, and their bearing is outstanding, and they know at a glance that they are the sons of nobles.

It is said that the family was in the middle of the road and was forced by the clansmen, and the two brothers were not angry, so they left Beijing angrily, planning to go to sea to make a lot of money.

Xie Ergongzi and Xie Wugongzi paid double the fare. The captain of the boat was happy to make a sum of money, and did not get to the bottom of it, but opened and closed his eyes and let them get on the boat.

The goods carried by the two brothers were all precious and fragile porcelain. These porcelains are so delicate that they can't stand bumping, and they are the most fragile. However, as long as it can be safely transported to the Barbarian Islands, it can be sold for a sky-high price. If the two brothers go through safely, it will be easy to revive the family business.

The premise is that the two of them did not vomit on the ship.

Less than ten days after going to sea, the Xie brothers, who had to vomit eight or nine times a day, became a joke for the whole ship. The Xie brothers, amid the ridicule of everyone, returned to the cabin in embarrassment.

On a sea ship, the most precious thing is the cargo, and the cabins where you live are so narrow that they can only accommodate them. And it's a cabin for two people.

Xie Ergongzi took the lead in lying down, like pickles soaked in a jar, his whole body was salty and smelly. In the bumps of the waves, I felt my stomach churning, and my face turned white.

Xie Wugongzi was lying on the other side, and Jun's face was also full of pain.

"Fifth brother," Second Prince Xie, who never opened his mouth in front of people, spoke not very neatly: "You, how are you?" ”

Xie Wugongzi smiled helplessly: "It's not good." ”
