Chapter 223: Meeting at Sea (2)

Lu Xiyue wore an azure bamboo cloth today, which was still a light, simple and elegant style, but the scorching sun on the sea gave him an extra folding fan, which was opening to cover his head slightly. Hearing this, he laughed again, as if he was saying that Bai Gongzi is so humorous.

"Today's wind and waves are calm, the sun is in the sky, watching this white bird soaring, brocade scales swimming, it is really pleasing to the eye, it makes people feel refreshed, why should Bai Gongzi take a sentence to die. Come on, sit down in the cabin and have a bowl of ice cream to cool off. Lu Xiyue affectionately went to pull Bai Qi's little hand.

Ice cheese, I'm grass, it's a good thing. Bai Qi immediately felt that her mouth was full of saliva. I saw a long-handled silver spoon scoop up the snow-white semi-solidified cheese from the crystal bowl, trembling, slippery and even more delicate, the white and delicate cheese was also densely covered with a layer of honey-stained rose petals and chopped mango flesh, the colors were even more pleasing to the eye, and the ice cubes were broken into ice beads the size of soybeans during the doping period.

Bai Qi took a spoonful and sighed with satisfaction from the inside out, and every strand of hair expressed satisfaction.

What if they threaten me with this? Why and why did I eat such good food, and what if I couldn't eat it in the future? Bai Qi bit the spoon tangledly, and didn't know if Liu Zhi would do this, so when she came back, she asked her to try it.

Lu Xiyue sat on the side with a relaxed and comfortable attitude, gently shaking the folding fan while drinking Kuding tea. The hot tea with white smoke was sipped unhurriedly, without seeing a drop of sweat, and the smile did not leave from his face, and Lord Lu's qi cultivation kung fu can be seen.

"Bai Ye, you and Little Eleven Ye are a little close to each other, and the names are all from the jade character, you are the same generation." The conversation between Yaren and Yaren will never be vulgar and go straight to the point, first talk nonsense, so that the atmosphere is more harmonious.

"Maybe, but I'm an outer chamber, and my name isn't in the genealogy. And Xiao Eleven's beautiful appearance is probably only in heaven, and there is no one in the world, compared to him, I am a vulgar fat fan. So if it is an insult to compare me with Xiao Eleven, Master Lu will treat me as an ordinary person whose surname is Bai and happened to be born and raised in Nanquan. "If you come up like this, you can say that you are the white master of the outer room, do you really not think about the embarrassment of the other party. And vulgar fat powder or something, are you sure you use the right word?

Lu Xiyue is not the kind of person who can easily cool off. He hehehe: "Bai Ye talks humorously, and he is really not a layman." Bai Qi rolled his eyes in his heart, but heard Lu Xiyue continue to ask, "But there is a sentence in front of Bai Ye who is a little puzzled, and I want to ask Bai Ye to explain my doubts." Bai Ye said that when we invade Swallow Island, this whole world is not the king's land, how can we wait for the court officials to inspect Swallow Island and call it an invasion? Swallow Island, is it not Bai Ye's forbidden belly? ”

Bai Qi held the spoon in his mouth in annoyance, this literati is disgusting, no wonder he said that there is a pen like a knife, and his tongue kills people. Tsk, look at the cautious eyes of the loopholes. That's why he doesn't like sour rotten scholars and politicians who are almost as good as lotus roots. Usually dislike Li Chun and the brothers on the island for talking rudely, but now Bai Qi misses them very much, and is angry that he has been with them for a long time, and his brain will not turn around, hey, it is really close to Zhu who is red and close to ink is black, and his pure seven-trick exquisite jade has also been taken crooked by them.

"Bai Ye is a citizen of the Son of Heaven, right. Although it is an outer room, I have seen Bai Ye's name on the Nanquan household register. Lu Xiyue didn't care what Bai Qi's stomach was spinning, she only continued to chat amiably, but the topic seemed to be a little wrong, and she was finally about to get down to business and show her fox tail.

Alas, this guy asked himself to come today just to fight with himself. Bai Qi threw the spoon back into the empty bowl and let out a crisp "dangchang" sound, "Lord Lu, I was uneducated when I was a child, and I didn't speak well, so I forgive Lord Lu." Of course, all the people in our Swallow Island are the people of this dynasty, and the adults have misunderstood us for a long time, we never do illegal things such as robbing homes and houses, and we are definitely good citizens who abide by the law. Master Lu has been coming to Nanquan for a few years, and he should know that Nanquan is a poor place, and he is forced to go to the sea to beg for a living. Widow villages are not uncommon, who wants to drift on the sea all year round, who has a way to live, who doesn't want their wives and children to be hot on the kang. ”

"The peasants of Jiangnan Province can still be buried in the soil after they die, and the bad luck of Nanquan is buried in the belly of the fish, and they can't give their relatives a little thought. Swallow Island is lonely on the sea, and some of our bitter people have found a place to live here, and they do not dare to oppose the imperial court. Why do you want to force each other? Please also be aware that we have never done anything unreasonable. ”

Speaking of this, Bai Qi still arched his hand to the north in a decent manner, and then continued, "There is no Swallow Island in the sea chart in the first year of Chengping, and it is not called Swallow Island in the current territory map. It's just an ownerless desert island. ”

Lu Xiyue didn't have a trace of annoyance, she only kept listening carefully, and nodded with a slight smile: "What Bai Ye said also makes sense. But it's different now—" As she spoke, Lu Xiyue got up and took out a scroll from a cabinet and slowly unfolded it on the table next to Bai Qi.

This is a map of the sea. Maps are rare, and official maps are even more rare, all in the hands of parents and officials in one place, and military maps are even more difficult to see. Nautical charts can only be described as rare.

Bai Qi's cynical debauchery when he came on the boat was finally put away. He couldn't help but straighten his clothes, his expression was solemn but his eyes were blazing, and he looked at this chart greedily.

Swallow Island is clearly drawn on this map, Swallow Bay, Falling Wing Bay, including the attached Aoyu Reef and Shark Reef are all drawn one by one. It's just that people don't call these names, and Swallow Island is written as a big island.

There is also Changwei Island, where Xia Qiao died, and Mao'er Island, the most important foothold of Nanquan fishermen in the fish farm, these nearby islands are vivid.

"This swallow island has now been officially registered, and it has an owner. Yanhou folded 100,000 yuan in silver and bought Swallow Island, and Nanquan Mansion had already prepared a case. ”

Which one is this? Bai Qi's composure was completely shattered by these words, his face was almost distorted, and finally squeezed out a smile: "Hehe, wealth is moving." It's just that I didn't expect Yanhou to be able to look at this small broken island, it's really far-sighted, the predecessors planted trees to pick peaches for the monkeys on the mountain behind. Okay, our brothers just want to settle down on Swallow Island to rest on the way to fishing, so this will make room for Yanhou. Can you give us some time to take some tattered clothes with us? ”

"Bai Ye misunderstood. Swallow Island was deserted at the beginning, but now it is so prosperous that Bai Ye and several others have made great contributions, Yan Hou is not the kind of person who takes people's wealth, Bai Ye might as well listen to what Yan Hou has to say. Lu Xiyue folded the folding fan and tapped his palm gently, although his smile was faint, his voice became softer and softer, and he turned his head to look at Xiao Jian.

Because of the thin curtains, the light was not strong, and Bai Qi only paid attention to the fox surnamed Lu, and then found that there was a partition in this room. He sneered in his heart, it was nothing more than that the people inside were scolded by their own family for being monkeys, and he knew that he was going to scold a few more words just now, and the foundation that the brothers had worked hard to lay over the years was easily touched by him.

Bai Qi opened the curtain, and there was no special arrangement in the small room, just a pot of fine-leaved orchids and a few books. A middle-aged man with a tall posture sat upright, his face did not show joy and anger, and he sat calmly next to the man. They were separated by a curtain before, but Bai Qi didn't notice it at all, he was calm and calm, and Yan Hou, a person with soldiers, didn't move, which showed the depth of cultivation.
