Chapter 90: Weak Little Lady
All eyes were focused on Xin Yi's face.
Xin Yi patted his beloved's nervous hand, pursed his lips and smiled, knowing that he couldn't explain it, so he could only be helpless.
"Little Hou Ye, I don't know what's going on."
Sometimes there is no way to do it. After Xin Yi finished speaking, he wrapped the big rice he had prepared in advance around himself, eased it a little, and then said calmly: "I originally wanted to catch some fish at night to subsidize the family, but I didn't know that such an unfortunate thing would happen." I'm also a victim. β
Cai Qi is not very old, and he is a little frivolous, but his brain is not stupid.
"You have been wandering on the Bianhe River for several days, you don't fish during the day, you have to wait until the evening, you go back and forth in the water and out of the water a few times, the fish are not seen, but the corpses are fished out of two, who are you coaxing? Sister-in-law, if I told you so, would you believe it? β
Xin Yi: "I don't believe it. β
Cai Qi snorted coldly and glanced sideways to the left and right.
"Chord, go back and report to the king of the county, and send someone to search the nearby waters."
"Yes." A young officer stepped forward, untied the boat from the river's boat, and departed in the night.
Cai Qi looked at his subordinates beside him and smiled nonchalantly.
"What are you doing in a daze? Why don't you bring my sister-in-law to the boat? After a while, where do I go to find someone? β
Their ship is big, and Xinyi's boat is small, which is a complete contrast between small and small.
Hearing this, Xin Yi couldn't help but laugh.
"What did the little marquis say, where can I run at night? Besides, I didn't do anything wrong, what did I slip on? β
Cai Qi sneered, "That maybe." Your ability to go to the sky and enter the water is too great. β
Xin Yi raised his eyebrows, did not quibble, obediently from the stretched boat board to the river boat, and sat on the ground.
Cai Qi glanced at the tall but frightened little lady on the boat, and let out another low laugh.
"And the black one, don't leak it, bring it with you."
The black one? The lover was stunned for a moment, and then realized that he was talking about himself.
Xin Yi's skin is extremely white, cold white and cold white color, even in the night, it is in stark contrast to the dark skin of his beloved, but Cai Qi's "black" voice really hurts people's self-esteem.
The lover blushed and was taken to Cai Qi's boat, bowing his head without saying a word, as if he had made a big mistake.
Xin Yi squeezed her hand comfortingly, silent.
When you go out and meet a creditor, you are unlucky to get home, and it is useless to say more, so it is better to respond to all changes with the same.
β¦β¦
The people of the Imperial City Division came quickly.
A large ship came from the river, and there were many soldiers on board.
However, Xin Yi didn't expect that Fu Jiuqu, who was injured, actually came in person.
A dark blue coat was draped on his slender body, his clothes were hunting in the wind, Sun Huai was waiting behind, carefully guarding him, Cheng Cang and Duan Sui stood on the left and right sides, motionless, like two sculptures.
The two men looked at each other, but neither spoke.
Fu Jiuqu was not as noisy as Cai Qi, and after stopping the boat, he didn't ask questions, but just commanded a group of soldiers to start salvaging along the waters near the reef, and by the way, he transferred Xin Yi from Cai Qi's river boat to his own boat.
From a small boat to a medium ship to a large ship, in a short period of time, Xin Yi has been promoted three levels in a row, and he is also a little emotional.
"Is the county king feeling better?" Her tone of concern for the patient was as relaxed as if she was in a medical hall, not a dark night in the Bianhe.
Fu Jiuqu glanced at Xin Yi, and saw that her face did not change, she was wet, and the syrup draped outside was half wet, and she could still laugh, so she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and sneer.
"These two corpses, what's going on?"
Xin Yi raised his eyes, shook his head, and answered honestly, "I don't know." β
"You fished it out?"
"Sort of. I caught it. β
Fu Jiuqu was not surprised that she would answer so ambiguously, and smiled slightly, "Then tell me why you went fishing in the middle of the night?" β
Xin Yi: "Poverty. β
simply two words, which amused Fu Jiuqu.
"You can't eat? Do you need to dress like this and go into the water to play with your life? β
Xin Yi looked at him without blinking, "The only way I make a living is to treat people, but the king of the county is not allowed." I'm a little woman with a family in tow, what else can I do but think of this way? What's wrong with fishing, don't steal, don't touch, ...... above board"
Fu Jiuqu looked at her thin waist tightly bound by the quilt in her clothes, her small head covered by a fishskin hat, her face as white as ice and snow, and her pitiful and desolate eyes, which were simply amazing.
searched all over Bianjing, but I probably couldn't find such an outrageous little lady.
"I've repeatedly convinced myself that you're just a weak little lady who can't do such shocking things. But you can always surprise me, and you can always do things that impress me. β
Xin Yi didn't answer, pursed his lips, silence is golden.
Fu Jiuqu's cold eyes were filled with heavy doubts.
"Now, even if someone says that these floating corpses all died at your hands, I dare to believe it. Zhang's Xinyi, in this world, there is really nothing you can't do. β
"Thank you for the compliment."
ββ¦β¦β
Xin Yi chose to do this at night because his actions were unreasonable.
It's just that she didn't expect that Fu Jiuqu would be able to follow her to the Bianhe River, and she didn't expect that Bai Duqu would make two corpses if she didn't catch it.
This unfortunate passage through life, in addition to saying that it is an extraordinary gift of fate, what else can be said?
"King Jun, it's okay for you to suspect me, I can only say that these two floating corpses have nothing to do with me. As for what you think and how to do it, I can't interfere. β
As she spoke, she glanced at the beloved person who was still on the Cai Qihe boat, and frowned, "This matter has nothing to do with my sister, she just helped me row the boat, don't offend her, I'll let you deal with it." β
Fu Jiuqu looked at her as if she was a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, and couldn't help but be a little funny.
With a gloomy face, he walked up to her, his voice a little lower.
"If you don't want to be honest, don't talk about your sister, I won't let your whole family go......"
Xin Yi pouted, "My family has three children." The king of the county refuses to let it go, so take it back and raise it. β
Fu Jiuqu choked, his back tooth sockets were clenched, and he finally eased his breath.
"You can do it, you can do it. Believe it or not, this king did you on the spot? β
Xin Yi's nerves burst out, and he looked at him, "The king of the county, please." β
Sun Huaisheng was afraid that the master would be angry with Zhang Xiaoniang alive, and besides, if the master said cruel words and didn't do it, it would be a slap in the face. He hurriedly smiled and stepped forward to play the round.
"Master, your body is not healed, don't stand in the wind, sit in the cabin to warm up, and then talk to the little lady in detail."
Fu Jiuqu glared at him, raised his leg to pick someone, suddenly felt pain in his buttocks, and retracted his leg again, his face twitched strangely.
Xin Yi noticed her abnormality and was about to mock her, when he suddenly saw a pawn come out of the water and shouted in shock.
"The king of the county, the little marquis...... There was a shipwreck underwater, and corpses, many, many corpses. β
Fu Jiuqu looked at him, "Fish." β
The Imperial City Commander quickly dispatched and began salvaging the sunken ship.
I have to say that there are many people and great strength, and these soldiers did not have such sufficient diving tools like Xin Yi, but it only took more than two hours to salvage all the corpses and sunken debris.
There were twenty-five corpses in all, and they were placed on the deck, which was very terrifying.
Xin Yi sat in the cabin, watching honestly, without any movement, but his eyes kept staring at what they had salvaged. There is only one tin wooden box seen in the game, and the contents of the box have been emptied, only a few pieces of sunken water incense remain, and some original pots and pans, broken porcelain and copper coins from the shipwreck......
Her heart was cold.
Apparently, the wreck had already been touched before she came to salvage it.
The incense medicine she relied on to make a fortune has been salvaged, and finally a few pieces are left, and now they have also fallen into the hands of the Imperial City Division......
This luck is really just out of the gutter and falling into the dung pit - unlucky.
Thinking of the huge wealth disappearing, Xin Yi at this moment was extremely lost, extremely cold, and numb to the extreme, not caring about the things around her, and no matter how Fu Jiuqu wanted to treat her crimes.
The money is gone, what are you going to do?
mourning, too mourning, intercepting her wealth is digging out her heart and liver......
"Ninth Master, what is this?" Duan Sui's voice interrupted Xin Yi's thoughts.
She turned her head weakly, and as soon as she glanced at it, her heart pounded, and she almost forgot to breathe.
It was a small box discarded in a tin wooden box, a foot in size, square in appearance, very finely made, the lock had already been pried open, and the black and white inside was intact.
For today's Song people, it is still an unfamiliar species.
No one has seen it, and no one has heard of it, because it was originally a planned bug, and it would be decades later in history before it was introduced from the Zhenla Kingdom to Bianjing......
As a result, it may be discarded as waste.
Duan Sui wouldn't know him, and of course Fu Jiuqu would do the same.
Xin Yi's heart jumped wildly, and at that moment, her brain quickly activated, and she almost blurted out.
"Don't touch it. Toxicβ"
Boom! Duan Sui quickly let go, and the box containing the tuk fell to the ground.
