Chapter 30: Shipwreck
Talented and beautiful but not sharp, respectful and decent but not aggressive, there is a degree of advance and retreat, and there is room for improvement, this is the lady who is most in line with the queen's heart. Yao Yun knew that Empress Liu loved Mei, and she could probably guess that she was so thoughtful.
Halfway through the banquet, I came to the highlight of today's resounding - Qujiang cruise, singing and appreciating spring.
The palace people led the ladies and gentlemen to the bank of the Qujiang River, and five red lacquered and gilt pleasure boats had been parked on the wharf. The boat is not big, but the shape is exquisite, the deck is open, the inner warehouse is bright, and the four corners of the eaves are carved with gilt engravings, implying smooth wind and safe travel.
Xiao Xiuqing deliberately walked slowly, reluctantly looked to the shore, but still didn't see Li Xu's figure, and was reluctant to go forward in despair.
Yao Yun and the two of them naturally fell last and boarded a cruise ship at the end.
"Lady is well."
Xiao Xiuqing hung on a wooden railing, staring at the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers on both sides of the bank with all kinds of boredom, sighed helplessly, and suddenly heard someone behind her calling her.
She turned around, and it turned out to be Murong Yue, a foreign clan, who was talented, and she saluted slightly: "Murong Langjun is good." ”
Yao Yun stood to the side, squinting his eyes and staring at him with a wary expression.
Murong Yue smiled knowingly, revealing her good-looking little tiger teeth, and said loudly: "There are several ladies who want to be on the same boat with the queen's mother, and the big ship in front is full, so this ship will come below." On the flying flower order of Fang Cai, the lady is erudite and talented, and the export is a chapter, which is really admired in the next. But the little lady doesn't seem to be very happy, but what's wrong with the lady's body? ”
Xiao Xiuqing was stunned, her face was pale, and she said coquettishly: "No, no discomfort." But, it could be me......"
"If you go back to Lang Jun, at the moment of the beautiful scenery, my lady is a little sad, Lang Jun doesn't have to worry." Yao Yun pulled her over without a trace and took over the conversation respectfully.
Murong Yue was stunned for a moment, and said loudly: "I see." Lady, this is ......"
Xiao Xiuqing smiled and pulled her arm: "It's my maidservant Ah Yun, she grew up with me since she was a child, and her temperament is more straightforward and straightforward, and I ask Lang Jun not to be surprised." ”
Murong Yue bowed slightly, smiled, and stood on the edge of the railing with them, overlooking the green mountains and green waters. The breeze is blowing, and the greenery is leisurely, which is very pleasant.
Yao Yun felt that if he was free, it would be excellent to draw a picture of the landscape of the Qujiang River.
The cruise ship sails to the middle of the Qujiang River, the river suddenly opens up, and the river rushes down, like the urgent situation of a tiger opening a mountain and opening a road with his bare hands. The green trees and green hills on both sides are lush and lush, full of spring and all things are full of vitality.
Boom! The boat shook violently, and the ladies on deck were a little overwhelmed.
Click! Click! Click!
The pleasure boat began to sway violently from side to side, and the river surged onto the deck, and the ladies and gentlemen were a little unsteady on their feet, and the clear river water washed their shoes and socks.
The ladies on the deck panicked and hurried into the inner room like headless flies.
Xiao Xiuqing looked around helplessly, tugging at Yun Niang's sleeve in a panic, wanting to pull her to run to the inner room with everyone.
Yao Yun saw that the bow of the ship was slowly crooked, and the river water seeped into the deck, and he suddenly felt bad. She led Jiu Niang's hand to hold the wooden railing on one side, and said in a deep voice: "Jiu Niang, hold the wooden pillar tightly, don't go to the inner room, just wait here for me to come back." Murong Langjun, please take care of Jiuniang, I'll go back when I go. ”
Murong Yue listened to her words, and also tightly grabbed the wooden pillar on one side, and asked anxiously, "Lady, where are you going......
There was no time to reply to his words, Yao Yun held on to the wooden railing on one side and walked forward, grinding his steps tremblingly, quickly avoiding a few little ladies who stumbled and fell, and finally came to the bow of the boat, only to see a man drenched and dressed as a woodcutter running up from under the cabin in a panic.
He shouted anxiously, "Run, run...... The ship is capsizing......"
Yao Yun grabbed his wet collar and said fiercely, "What do you mean?" Why did the ship capsize? Are all the watertight compartments broken? ”
The middle-aged woodcutter was stunned for a moment, knowing that the little lady knew some ways, and wiped his tears and said anxiously: "Three, three watertight compartments have been broken, can't be repaired, can't be repaired......"
She slapped him twice and shouted angrily: "Quickly put the boat down, if something happens to the noble ladies, you will definitely not survive......"
"Yes, yes, thank you lady, the villain will go to ...... immediately" The hot pain on his face made him sober up a lot, and he quickly got up and went to the stern to release the boat.
Three watertight compartments are broken? How could such a coincidence occur?
Yao Yun saw that the water under the warehouse had just overflowed her calf, so she turned her heart sideways and jumped down.
She frowned, raised her steps vigorously, and walked against the tumbling river to the inside, wiping away the splashing sewage, and finally found the location of the watertight compartment.
After a while, Yao Yun's whole body was sticky and wet, her hair was wet and sticking to the back of her neck, she gasped for strength urgently, and jumped out of the hatch with a full breath. The hull of the ship has tilted more than half, the river has eroded, churning wantonly, the hull is shaking, and there is a danger of capsizing at any time.
She was stunned for a moment, and someone in the hazy and chaotic eyes actually reached out to her.
"Lady, quick!"
It was Murong Yue who stretched out his hand to her and hurriedly pulled her up. He dragged her all the way to the stern of the boat.
"Where's my wife?" She asked hurriedly.
"The Nine Ladies have already boarded the boat, safe and sound......"
"Thankfully, we ......"
The churning, watering, and submerging, the remaining half of the words were swallowed up in vain by the noisy and turbulent cold river.
The ship flipped on its side, and the scattered broken logs on the left side swept along with the river, striking her shoulder mercilessly, and she stumbled off the deck railing and fell into the boiling cold water.
"Murong Yue, you, you ......"
Murong Yue actually grabbed her hand tightly, and fell into the turbulent cold water with her, struggling, choking, ignorant, and unconscious......
She was unwilling, how could she be drowned so easily!
"Ahem, ahem...... cough cough cough ......"
The heat from her back made her shake violently, and she gasped for breath to wake up, and it took a long time for her to come to her senses and push her heavy eyelids open.
"Lady, lady......" is Murong Yue hugging her and calling her softly.
Murong Yue stared at her with a slight frown, her whole body was also soaked, and the robe on her left arm even had two cuts, and blood was faintly overflowing, as if she was suffering from pain.
"Ahem, Murong Langjun, you, you're injured."
Murong Yue was stunned and breathed a sigh of relief: "No, it's okay." What is wrong with the lady? ”
She raised her hand and tugged at the sleeve of his upper arm, but fortunately the sleeve was thick, and the wound was not deep, so it was not a fatal wound.
"The little girl is fine, thank you Lang Jun for sacrificing her life. But ......"
