Liu Dongxing and Wen Yi and his party took a boat down the river, and within two days, they arrived at Dongping Mansion and wanted to change ships here.

Although he didn't need to deal directly with the Dongping Palace, he wanted to stop the conspiracy carried out by the three palaces, so he didn't want to cause trouble in Dongping, a sensitive place. If he could, he would rather go straight than stop in Dongping, but after leaving Dongping Port, the ship would have to turn directly to the sea. The official boat he was on could travel on inland rivers, and he had to change to a large boat, which could not be saved at all.

Liu Dongxing simply sent someone to Dongping a day in advance to deliver urgent letters and silver tickets, and asked the people of the Luo family firm to help with the dots, and prepared the official ship to go to sea, and even the fresh water utensils on the ship should be purchased, so as to reduce the time of stay in Dongping Port. At the same time, he ordered the ship's family to speed up the journey, and before entering Dongping Port, he asked the officers and soldiers accompanying him to put away any flags, lanterns and other items that would reveal their identities, and only enter the port as ordinary official ships.

Dongping Port is also a big port, the officials and businessmen who go south from the capital do not know how many people have to pass by boat from here every day, official ships are not uncommon, Liu Dongxing's ship entered the port, did not attract too much attention, only the Luo family steward who had been waiting at the wharf for a long time recognized it, and immediately called the hired sedan chair over. Liu Dongxing and Wen Yi led a group of male and female servants, got off the boat, and immediately got on these sedan chairs, and then transferred to the harbor wharf, and in less than an hour, even the people and luggage had arrived on the ship.

Dongping Wangfu only got the news at this time. Zhu Jingcheng had long heard about Liu Dongxing's appointment as Kangnan's resident general. Unlike King Kang's Mansion, he thinks that he still has some friendship with Liu Dongxing, and he is a cousin, as long as it does not involve the grievances of the elders, some things may not be impossible to discuss, even if he can't completely win people over, it is still no problem to ask the other party to relax the defense line a little bit. No matter what, Liu Dongxing can be regarded as a relative of his foreign family, and compared with the prince of Donggong, who has nothing to do with and has been suspected of suppression, their Dongping Mansion is undoubtedly closer to Liu Dongxing.

In order to achieve this goal, Zhu Jingcheng ordered someone to pay attention to Liu Dongxing's itinerary early, calculated the time when he would arrive in Dongping Port, and talked to his mother in advance, persuading her to give a little way on the issue of his grandmother's status. finally got the reluctant approval of Princess Dongping, Zhu Jingcheng was about to persuade Liu Dongxing with a three-inch tongue, but his subordinates reported that the other party had already changed to a sea boat, and he was going to leave soon. Zhu Jingcheng was shocked and hurriedly rushed over.

It's a pity that Liu Dongxing's actions are too neat, and he has already let the shipwright close the anchor and start the ship, and gradually sail away from Dongping Port. When Zhu Jingcheng rushed to the dock, he only had time to see Liu Dongxing turn around and enter the cabin, and the colorful flag on the bow of the ship was fluttering in the sea breeze, and the big characters "General Liu of the Kangnan Garrison Station" were prominently written on it, even if it was three miles away, it could be clearly seen. When the ships in the waters near the port saw it, they all gave way and let them go first.

At that moment, Zhu Jingcheng seemed to understand something, his face was immediately difficult to look at, and he slammed the horsewhip on the ground: "I don't know how to lift"

The attendant cautiously stepped forward and asked, "Lord Shizi, do you want to ...... Send someone to chase? ”

"No need" Zhu Jingcheng sneered, his face was very hideous, "He doesn't have that blessing, why should I force people to appreciate it?" With that, he flicked his sleeves and turned to leave.

Wen Yi stood by the window, watched Zhu Jingshen and his party leave the dock angrily from a distance, and looked back at Liu Dongxing worriedly: "Doesn't it matter?" Will it offend him? ”

Liu Dongxing's face was full of indifference: "If you offend, you will be offended, I am afraid that he will be too close to us, otherwise why be so sneaky?" ”

Wen Yi sighed: "We quietly changed to a sea boat, not wanting to alarm others, just to avoid dealing with the Dongping Palace. As a result, although they have avoided it now, they have also discovered our intentions. I'm not afraid of offending people, I'm afraid that they will find some clues in it and spoil your big things. ”

Hearing this, Liu Dongxing also had some regrets: "Originally, I had already arranged it, speed up the trip, and enter the port half a day in advance, as long as we act smartly, Dongping Wangfu will not get the news until at least two hours after we leave, and it will be too late for anything at that time." Even if they ask about it in the future, I can say that I don't dare to climb the palace, and my official business is urgent, so I don't stay long. Unexpectedly, the eyes and ears of the palace were clever, and they had already received the letter not long after we went ashore. If I hadn't asked the Luo family to help me with some food and water supplies, I was afraid that I would really be stopped and have to go to the palace as a guest. ”

Wen Yi hurriedly asked, "Then what now?" The prince of Dongping seems to be quite angry, he should know what you mean, right? Will you be suspicious? ”

Liu Dongxing smiled: "What suspicion will he have?" We can do what we want, I didn't intend to recognize this relative, and I have always had little contact with them, so I can only push it to the grievances of my ancestors, and no one can find fault with me. Besides, I am the eldest son and grandson of the Liu family, whether it is the patriarch, the clansman or the court, they are all recognized, isn't Dongping just a married daughter from the Liu family? The water spilled by the married daughter, who said that I must go to see it? Those kings and nobles were all pretentious figures, thinking that they were acting secretly, how could they have thought that their every move had already been known by the imperial court? ”

Wen Yi said: "But the second uncle resigned rashly, maybe he has already startled the snake......

Liu Dongxing waved his hand: "What if you really startle the snake?" If they can stop, it will be their creation, but now that the three kings are joining forces, they say stop, and people may not be willing. Several major military camps near the capital are in the hands of reliable people, and the Zheng family has always been in the capital, so they may not be willing to be used by the Dongping Palace, I just need to keep the peace of Kangcheng. After a pause, "The Luo family has already received the will, and the navy returning to the sea will also prevent them from jumping over the wall and escaping in a boat." ”

"The Luo family?" Wen Yi suddenly understood a little, but calmed down, but felt that the three royal mansions were not a climate, now their way to the south and to the sea was blocked, and there were strong soldiers around the capital, no matter how much Taiwei Zheng loved his daughter, he might not be willing to give up his sister in the palace and the wealth he had gotten, so what else could they do? In her previous life, she hadn't heard of a lot of trouble in several palaces, but it was rumored that they had made trouble, and Pingyang was so close to Kangcheng, they had just heard rumors, so it could be seen that it was just a small turmoil. Liu Dongxing must be free of danger, right?

Letting go of the big stone in her heart, Wen Yi began to be in the mood to laugh: "Xianggong, what did you just say?" The water spilled by the daughter who got married? Did I hear me right? ”

Liu Dongxing blinked, let out a long "uh", and said with a smile: "Lady heard it wrong, right?" I'm talking about Princess Dongping being a married daughter, and no matter what she does, it has nothing to do with the Liu family. ”

Wen Yi squinted at him and raised his eyebrows, Liu Dongxing immediately raised his hands and changed his words: "Lady, please speak, there is nothing to do for your husband." ”

Wen Yi smiled, leaned over and whispered, "You carved a few gadgets out of wood for me here last time, do you remember?" Hengzhu has nothing to do on the ship now, can you make me a few more? ”

Liu Dongxing also approached her and whispered, "Okay, then can I make two dolls?" Big fat doll, a kid, a girl......"

Wen Yi's face suddenly turned red.

After that, the specific situation is not detailed for the time being, and it is said that Liu Dongxing and Wen Yi and his party took the official boat, and after going south to Taicheng, they changed to land, and the accompanying Wang Dewang family changed to another boat, continued to return to the sea south, and reunited with relatives. The rest of the people stayed overnight at the Taicheng Post House, then changed to a horse-drawn carriage and went to Heng'an, and walked for four or five days on the road before they arrived.

When Master Liu Si got the news, he personally brought someone to greet him with his wife, shouting for warmth, with the demeanor of a kind elder. Liu Dongxing kept smiling on his face, but he was not enthusiastic, and he said a few words casually to deal with it, but Master Liu Si didn't care, but was a little more kind.

On Mrs. Liusi's side, the same situation is true. Wen Yi was secretly glad that when he was in the capital, he had specially forced himself to learn how to deal with it in order to meet in the officialdom in the future, so that he could stay sober in the unprecedented enthusiasm of Mrs. Liu Si. Fortunately, Mrs. Liu Si is not too thick-skinned, and she has some scruples about Liu Gu's family, and seeing that Wen Yi's affection is limited, she barely maintains the dignity of her elders.

However, Wen Yi tested Mrs. Liu Si a few words, and found that the other party might not know about Second Uncle Liu's resignation, hesitated for a moment, glanced at her husband again, and decided to wait until she discussed it with him later, and then decided whether to disclose the news.

The Liu family originally had an old house and a grange outside the city, but as early as a few decades ago, the family moved into Heng'an City to live together, and the place where they lived was called Liu Street. Dongxing and Wen Yi sat in a carriage, accompanied by Liu Si and his wife, they arrived at the entrance of Liujie Street, and saw a large group of men, women and children waiting in front of a house, waiting eagerly, many people had their necks stretched long, and when they saw the carriage appearing at the street entrance, they shouted coaxingly: "Come on, come on"

Wen Yi was taken aback, but Mrs. Liu Si smiled at this time: "Oh, they are all people in our clan, I heard that Brother Xing'er was promoted, and when he went back to his hometown to worship his ancestors, he was so happy, he had to come out to greet him, you see, the one who walked in the forefront was the fourth old lady, when the eldest old lady was there, he was the best with him, and his youngest son almost became the son of the eldest old lady.

Wen Yi's heart moved, and she understood that the son of the fourth old lady must have almost been passed on to Mrs. Rong's back then. I saw Liu Dongxing hurriedly turn over and dismount, greet him with a smile, and kneel down firmly and kowtow: "Fourth grandfather." ”

"Good, good...... the old man trembled and supported Liu Dongxing, his eyes flashing with tears, "The fourth grandfather knows that you will definitely have a good job to let those villains see who is worthy of being the eldest son and grandson of our Liu family."

Liu Dongxing smiled, turned around and gave Wen Yi a look, Wen Yi hurriedly walked over, knelt down and saluted according to Liu Dongxing's instructions: "My nephew and daughter-in-law have seen the fourth grandfather." ”

"Huh?" Fourth Master Liu was stunned, and his face suddenly sank.
