The moment I opened my eyes, suddenly, there was a loud bang.

Suddenly, a raging river rushed up, engulfing me in an instant, and the water kept tearing me apart, pulling me into a whirlpool, and suddenly suffocated, almost blackening my eyes.

Good...... Uncomfortable!

I struggled, gasping for breath, and in the confusion I felt a hand reach out and grab me hard.

In my ears, in the midst of the turbulence of the water, it seemed that a person's voice sounded, but it seemed to come from a far, far away, and it came into my ears in small pieces.

"Are you alright?"

"Hey!"

"Yue Qingying!"

It was as if a black hand was holding my neck hard, and I gritted my teeth, and let out a low roar like a beast roaring in my throat: "Ahhh ”

"Yue Qingying!"

I opened my eyes all at once, only to feel that the ground in front of me was suddenly blood-red, and suddenly faded, and a face full of frightened expressions appeared in my sight, and my eyes looked at me wide, as if I was greatly frightened: "You, what's wrong with you?" ”

“……”

I was gurgling in my throat, unable to speak, and looked at her sweaty.

Han Zitong was obviously frightened by what I looked like just now, and his face was a little pale, and he looked at me for a while before he said in a trembling voice: "You, what's wrong with you?" ”

"Let me take a look."

An old and powerful voice came from the side, and Han Zitong walked in front of me with one hand, and looked at it, but it was Yao Lao. He reached out and touched my forehead and held my wrist, but before I could check my pulse, I felt a dull pain in my chest, and immediately coughed violently.

I found that there were already a lot of people crowded in the small cabin, not only the two of them, but also the two maids I had asked me to guard the door before were also standing next to me, looking at me cautiously with pale faces, and outside the door, there were several attendants and maids, all looking in, and no one dared to let out a loud breath.

The more I coughed, the worse I felt, and I even felt a fishy sweet smell in my throat, as if blood was oozing from it.

Han Zitong hurriedly walked to my side, stretched out his hand to wipe my back to help me smooth my qi, while Yao Lao held my pulse for a moment, raised his head to look at me, and looked very solemn.

"The pulse is so messy! Girl, what have you done? ”

"Ahem, ahem, ahem, ahem, ......"

I coughed a few times in pain, but it was hard to stop, gasping for breath and unable to speak, only looking up at them.

And when the two maids saw me looking at them, they immediately fell to their knees with a frightened plop.

"Madame's forgiveness!"

"Ma'am, we're guarding the door, but—"

As the two of them spoke, they both looked behind me tremblingly, and I also turned my head to look, only to see Han Zitong immediately frowned, stopped helping me to calm down, and said, "How do I know what you are doing in the house, and let the two of them guard the door, what if something happens?" ”

“……”

"Besides, you said it yourself, you will have arrangements after you go to sea, but now!"

“……”

I just breathed a sigh of relief, and when I heard this, I still couldn't react, and I gasped for two more breaths before I suddenly realized something, and my eyes widened: "What did you say?" ”

She looked at me impatiently: "We have already gone to sea!" ”

“……”

"Out to sea!"

“……”

I was stunned for a moment, and immediately rushed to get out of bed, but this movement, I only felt that my hands and feet were not like my own, and I almost fell off the bed, fortunately, Yao Lao and the two maids hurriedly stretched out their hands, and everyone supported me, I gasped and said, "I, I want to go out and have a look." ”

They glanced at each other, but didn't say much, Yao Lao only made a look, and everyone helped me stumble out of the room.

As soon as I stepped out of the hatch, I felt a salty, moist wind rushing towards me.

I suddenly felt empty in front of me.

When we walked out of the woodland and suddenly saw Tianmu Temple, we felt that the eyes were suddenly bright.

However, at this moment, it is completely different from sudden enlightenment.

In front of me is a vast expanse, there is no place to come, and there is no end in sight, only the boundless ocean, which stretches infinitely under your feet. There is a gray-blue sky above his head and a gray-blue sea under his feet, but he can't tell which piece is the sky and which is the sea, and he only feels that the sea and the sky are all one, connected by one vein, and our ship, which is as tall as a mountain, is just a small wanderer in this chaotic world.

For a moment, I was stunned on the splint.

A cold wind swept the salty smell of the sea water on my face, and the wet wind quickly wet my sideburns, I subconsciously wiped my face, and then opened my eyes to see-

Still, in front of me is the endless sea.

We're really out to sea!

It was only then that I seemed to accept this fact and let out a long breath.

At this time, the people behind him also walked out, Han Zitong looked at the boundless sea in front of him, and his eyes couldn't help revealing a little panic, but he still looked back at me with a sense of resentment: "Now you see clearly?" ”

I didn't speak for a moment, then looked up at the sky again.

It turned out that nearly a time had passed.

I turned my head to look at Han Zitong: "When did we go to sea?" ”

"It's been hours."

"Is there no one to stop you?"

She frowned slightly, shook her head, and said, "No." ”

“……”

I frowned too.

At this time, Yao Lao walked up to me and looked at me with a solemn face: "Qingying, what are your plans?" ”

"I—"

"Whatever your plans are, let's go back to the room first." "You're too weak to blow the wind outside," he said. ”

When he said this, it reminded me, and I felt that my whole body was covered in cold sweat, and I almost soaked my close-fitting shirt, so I was blown by the sea breeze, and I only felt cold to the bone, and nodded hurriedly, and the two maids came forward and carefully supported me and walked back.

When I returned to my room, the attendants had all stayed outside, and only Han Zitong and Yao Lao walked in.

Han Zitong reluctantly took me to the window and sat down, and saw that there was paper and pen on the table, but the paper was a mess, she couldn't help frowning, looked at me and said, "What were you doing last night?" ”

I only glanced at her, and didn't answer her, but turned my head to look at Yao Lao: "How many ships are there in Yangzhou that go to sea?" ”

Yao Lao was stunned for a moment, as if he was surprised why I suddenly asked this, but he thought about it and replied, "There are only two." ”

"Two?"

The crease in my brow grew deeper.

Out to sea, and they had no idea where their voyage would end in advance, but there were only two ships. Even if Liu Qinghan and Wen Fengxi are young, but in the end, there is Wu Yanqiu, and this matter cannot be so ridiculous.

Unless-

Han Zitong looked at me with a frown, and said a little impatiently, "What are you thinking?" ”

Yao Lao stretched out his hand to stop her, and at this time, I had already raised my head to look at them, paused, and said, "Let's go to Zhoushan first." ”

"Zhoushan?"

Both of them were taken aback, and after glancing at each other, Han Zitong immediately said, "You mean, those things are in Zhoushan?" ”

I shook my head: "I didn't say that. ”

"Then why did you let us go to Zhoushan?"

I sighed, but still said calmly: "Although I don't know where the things are, and I don't know where Yan Qinghan and the others have gone now, but the boat in Yangzhou must have been following the people from Xichuan all the time, but they only have two ships to go to sea, and it is impossible to cope with such a voyage." ”

"So what?"

"So, they should have prepared otherwise, and they were prepared."

"Prepared?" Han Zitong was stunned for a moment, immediately realized something, and looked at me with wide eyes: "You mean, their main fleet is actually in Zhoushan?" ”

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be."

"But, what if the thing is not in Zhoushan?"

I glanced at her, and she seemed to sense that her words were a little redundant, and suddenly her eyes flickered, avoiding mine.

I just lightly hooked the corners of my lips and said, "Even if the things are not in Zhoushan, they will always follow Yan Qinghan's fleet, as long as their route is correct, we will not be wrong to follow their main fleet." ”

Actually, I don't think I'm wrong.

Zhoushan ......

That has always been the place where Pei Yuanhao has tried his best to develop on the southeast coast, before in Huyue Gorge, he mobilized Zhoushan water division to block Empress Yin's ship south, that one was certainly not a battle, but a long-planned sniper, but it can also be seen that he does not intend to relax the control of the sea.

And the main thing is-

Before Pei Yuanxiu and I got married, when I went to the February Red Wine House to try the dishes, I once met Liu Qinghan on the third floor to entertain some guests, he was the leader of Yangzhou Mansion, but in the third floor of February Red so hidden and special place to entertain guests, obviously the identity of those guests is not simple, although those people only greeted us and left in a hurry, but I still noticed that the jade pendants on those people were carved into Xuanwu.

Ordinary officials and merchants wear jade, and most of them will be carved into jade cicadas, jade fans and other auspicious and delicate objects, which can be carved into Xuanwu jade, but not ordinary people will wear it.

There is only one kind of person - a person who is a master of the mountains and rivers.

Thinking of this, my hand on the table couldn't help but tremble slightly.

That was half a year ago, Liu Qinghan had already had dealings with the people of Zhoushan Shui Shi, of course, it should be the emperor's instructions, and it was impossible to let a Yangzhou Mansion Yin deal with the people of Zhoushan Shuishi.

Could it be that at that time, they were already planning to use their means at sea?

Is it because of the news we heard at the Ferry Pavilion that Pei Yuanhao already had a trace of caution against the sea?

Yao Lao and Han Zitong were both standing beside me, the two of them were obviously shocked by my words just now, and they both lost their reactions for a while, and it was only at this time that Han Zitong said: "Are you sure that they will definitely come to Zhoushan?" ”

I didn't speak, but slowly looked at the drawing, which had been drawn in a mess.

Just now, I could feel that Yao Lao and her eyes fell on this piece of paper, and they looked at it for a long time, but the messy strokes on it made them finally give up.

And I, with burning eyes, looked at an ink dot on the paper.

After a long time, he said slowly: "I'm sure." ”
