The little one blinked, looking at him a little blankly.

Lu Ronghuai said leisurely: "My favorite is your father." ”

Chu Yuan, who walked in front: "......"

He glared back, "Lord Wang, don't talk nonsense to the baby." ”

Lu Ronghuai still wanted to speak, but at this time, the three of them had already come to the ship and took a look at the few people waiting on the deck.

He raised his eyes and looked, a very ordinary glance, but it made him stagnate, and he was stunned in place.

"Patriarch......" Jiang Ni was the first to speak, and greeted him in a few steps, he looked at the old man in front of him with emotion, "Your hair is gray." ”

The Jiang clan chief has gray hair, plain robes flutter in the wind, looking at the scene of sixty or seventy years old, but his body is straight, and what is even more surprising is that there are not many wrinkles on his face, and his face is still tight, looking even younger than Nie Xuxing.

Patriarch Jiang whispered a few words to Jiang Ni, and then, he raised his head and looked at Chu Yuan leisurely, and finally, his gaze fell on Lu Ronghuai's face.

The old man's gaze has an indescribable clarity, and people dare not look directly at it when they look closely.

I only heard him ask: "This little friend, do you recognize the old decay?" ”

The author has something to say:

Land Dog: Mom, I seem to have seen a ghost

Chapter 156

"This little friend, do you recognize the old decay?"

The patriarch's inquiry pulled back Lu Ronghuai's thoughts, he smiled quietly, and walked forward with Lu Duoyu in his arms, "I heard my father mention you, but I didn't expect you to be so young, and the younger generation was surprised for a while, but it was rude." ”

Patriarch Jiang looked into his eyes, since the other party was unwilling to tell the truth, he didn't need to get to the bottom of it.

Looking at this popularity, it must be His Royal Highness the brave and warlike King Li.

"The prince praises falsely, the old man is now in his old age, and he is no longer young," he said lightly, his eyes fell on Lu Yuyu's face, "This is ...... The prince's child? ”

"Patriarch, this is the child of Yuan Yuan and the prince, and also your great-great-grandson." Jiang Ni said with a smile.

Patriarch Jiang bowed his head, "Let's go in first, it's windy outside." ”

Everyone followed him into the cabin, the cabin space is very large, although the decoration is not luxurious, but it is elegant and chic, and has a unique flavor.

After the people were seated, Jiang Ni hugged Lu Duoyu to Patriarch Jiang's side.

"Xiaoyu, this is Grandpa Gao."

Lu Duoyu called sweetly, "Hello Grandpa Gao, my name is Lu Wuyin, and grandpa can also call me Xiaoyu." ”

Patriarch Jiang showed a smile on his face, he looked down at the little man who was only up to his knees, and said softly, "Is the little fish hungry?" ”

"Don't you're hungry, is Grandpa Gaozu hungry? The small fish have sugar cakes that can be eaten by you. He was not afraid of life at all, his hands were lying on Patriarch Jiang's lap, and he raised his head and blinked his eyes and asked.

Patriarch Jiang's eyes deepened with a smile, he reached out and touched the little guy's head, picked the person up and sat on his lap.

Then, he looked at Lu Ronghuai and Chu Yuan, "This kid is smart and sensible, and you have taught him very well." ”

Lu Ronghuai propped his chin to look at the cub, and smiled when he heard the words, "I'm very naughty, and I'm used to pretending to be obedient." ”

Jiang Ni can see that no one can speak ill of his baby, not even his own father.

"Xiaoyu is not yet two years old, and he is already very well-behaved."

Patriarch Jiang raised his finger and pointed to the tea cup on the table, "This is our tea on the sea, you can taste it." ”

Chu Yuan picked up the teacup, the temperature of the entrance was just right, he took a sip, and the fragrance between his lips and tongue was suddenly invaded, this fragrance was far away, like wild chrysanthemums in the field, and like the morning dew in the mountains and forests.

Patriarch Jiang took in the affection on Chu Yuan's face, and he suddenly spoke, "This is your father's favorite tea. ”

Chu Yuan was slightly stunned, raised his eyes and looked at him stunned.

Jiang Ni looked at the clear tea soup in his hand, his eyes were smoky, and he couldn't help pantothenic acid, "Yes, this is Xiaoyou's favorite Yunbai tea, but he can't drink it anymore." ”

Chu Yuan and Jiang You are seven or eight points similar, and Patriarch Jiang looked at this face, and his thoughts couldn't help but be abrupt.

"The Jiang family's descendants are thin, when your father is an adult, there is no candidate in the clan to marry, when he chose to leave, we did not stop him, I knew that today, I would definitely not agree to him to leave at the beginning."

When he learned the news of Jiang You's death in the letter, he also blamed himself bitterly for a long time, he was the best son of the Jiang family, and he was also the child he watched grow up.

Chu Yuan's expression was sad, and he lowered his eyes to prevent them from seeing the tide in his eyes.

Lu Ronghuai hugged his waist, and his other hand also held his cold five fingers, silently giving him the power to soothe.

The memories are bloody, and Patriarch Jiang is obviously not willing to talk about this matter, Jiang You is dead, they will not let go of the scum who hurt Jiang You, in order to comfort him in the spirit of heaven.

Patriarch Jiang: "I have prepared a hundred ships on my side, when does the prince plan to go to the Chu State?" ”

Lu Ronghuai: "You can do it at any time." ”

Patriarch Jiang: "The sea area of the Southern Holy Sea is vast, and the wind direction is uncertain, it is easy to deviate from the sea voyage for the first time, this time I will bring the whole clan to help the prince, hoping that the prince will take the state of Chu as soon as possible." ”

The State of Chu is eyeing the Jiang family, and he now hates the State of Chu so much, which is why when Jiang Ni wrote to him for help, he was willing to go to sea to help, not only for Jiang You, but also for the descendants of the Jiang family.

Lu Ronghuai hooked his lips, and the corners of his eyes were raised unscrupulously, obviously he was a suave appearance, but he was dyed with murderous energy.

"Blood debts and blood debts, what the Chu State owes to Ah Yuan and the queen mother must be doubled."

Patriarch Jiang was relieved when he heard this, he could see that the King of Li in front of him really loved Chu Yuan, and with him, their hope of revenge would be greater.

"There is something to bother the patriarch," Lu Ronghuai tilted his head, "There is a fugitive in the country of Lu who is hiding in the state of Chu, and he is likely to flee from the sea, so please send someone to capture him at that time." ”

The head of the Jiang clan bowed his head, and after asking the name and appearance of the fugitive, he should accept the matter.

"Don't worry, the Jiang family has lived in the South Holy Sea for many years and knows the sea very well, he wants to escape from the sea, it is difficult to reach the sky."

Lu Ronghuai: "This is very good, this person is cunning, you should also be more careful." ”

Jiang Ni: "A ship can accommodate 1,000 people, and the prince has many soldiers and horses, how to deploy them?" ”

Lu Ronghuai pondered, "One hundred big ships can send 100,000 people over, and these 100,000 people are the king's Xuan Yuwei, and being able to use one as ten is the key to our taking down the Chu State." ”

"Wait for the big ship to return, and then send 100,000 soldiers to the coast of Duan Kingdom, and work together to outflank them."

They recruited troops all the way, constantly filling in new soldiers, so that now there are a full 500,000 troops.

Patriarch Jiang: "What about the remaining soldiers?" ”

Lu Ronghuai smiled, "The remaining 300,000 troops will start from Liu State, and the soldiers will be divided into two routes, with Bai Qingyu leading all the way to Duan State, and Zhao Lu leading all the way to Chu State, so that they will be exposed to the enemy on their backs and will not be able to escape." ”

After discussing the matter, Lu Ronghuai sent someone to count the number of people, and 100,000 Xuan Yuwei began to board the ship.

On the second day, Bai Qingyu and the others stood on the shore and watched a hundred ships sail off the shore.

The night at sea was not calm, the waves were undulating, the waves were loud, and the ship had been swaying on the sea for three days, as small as a leaf.

Chu Yuan was seasick, the whole person was miserable, Lu Ronghuai went to find Jiang Ni, Jiang Ni gave him two cool plasters, and let him stick them on Chu Yuan's abdomen, saying that it could relieve seasickness.

After working for half an hour and drinking half a bowl of bird's nest snow wing porridge, Chu Yuan was deeply sleepy and fell asleep on the soft pillow.

Lu Ronghuai came back after washing his hands, leaned over to pick him up, and carefully put him in the center of the bed.

Then he took off his shoes and went to bed, covered the big and small ones in the bed with quilts, and lay on the outside with his arms propped up, staring at Chu Yuan quietly.

He remembered meeting during the day.

In fact, Patriarch Jiang was right, he had seen him.

That was in the previous life, after Chu Yuan passed away.

He was already crazy at that time, begged all the gods and Buddhas who were once extremely shameless, traveled all over the eight wildernesses of Kyushu, and conveyed the edict to the four seas, as long as he could let him see Chu Yuan again and continue the frontier, he was willing to do everything he could, and he would not regret it.

It was at this time that Patriarch Jiang found him.

But he concealed his name, only said a few words to him, and then disappeared into the crowd, which once made him suspect that this person had bad intentions.

Now that he thinks about it, he was willing to appear in front of him and help himself, perhaps because he learned that Chu Yuan was his clansman.

And whether he was out of pity or guilt, he helped out, which was already a great kindness.

He stretched out his hand to hug Chu Yuan into his arms, lowered his head and sniffed the crisp scent of soap beans in his hair, the desperate pain of his previous life was made up for in this life, and he had no regrets in this life.

Many of the soldiers of the land country lacked experience in riding a ship at sea, and there were not a few who fainted, so in the first half of the month, Jiang Ni was busy with his feet not touching the ground, and many soldiers had a fever on the ship, and they burned for several days in a row, and almost died of dehydration.

Fortunately, the Jiang clan people were well prepared, and they also expected that they would have all kinds of uncomfortable symptoms, and a large number of medicinal materials were prepared on the ship, and they finally survived the danger in the early stage.

In the back, everyone slowly adapted to life at sea, and their spirits improved little by little, and when the ship arrived at the coast of Chu State, they basically resumed their vigorous posture.

Stepping into the realm of Chu again, Chu Yuan felt like a world away.

As soon as he landed on the shore, Xuan Yuwei quickly separated, like a burst of black mist hidden between the surrounding mountains, forests and roads, and soon disappeared.

They came ashore in a deserted fishing village, which was so low that it flooded every summer at high tide, so many fishermen moved elsewhere and it became more and more desolate.

The Jiang clan would go from here every time they went ashore to buy, so there were spare coarse linen clothes in several abandoned fish houses.

Lu Ronghuai took out a few pairs of leather masks and handed them to everyone, and the people at the table changed into inconspicuous clothes, put on masks, and walked out of the house openly.

Several Jiang disciples came over with donkey carts.

Patriarch Jiang: "I bought a house in Wuhu, and the customs clearance documents have been prepared, so let's just say that we are going to go to relatives, and if it goes well, we can arrive in half a month." ”

Wuhun is the capital of Chu State, not far from the South Shenghai, if you are fast, it only takes five or six days to arrive.

Everyone had no objection and set off together in a donkey cart.

When they arrived at the market town of Chu State, they changed to a simple carriage and went to Wuhun in a low-key manner, without encountering any trouble along the way, so they came to Wuhun unimpeded.

Now that the autumn equinox has passed, although the sun is not as hot as summer, it is still inevitable to sweat when it shines on the body.

They followed Patriarch Jiang around the streets and alleys for a long time, and finally found the house.

Patriarch Jiang: "In order to hide people's eyes, the house here is ordinary, it was the old house of a merchant before, although the sparrow is small, it is better than the five organs, I have asked someone to sprinkle and sweep it, please come in." ”

Lu Ronghuai stepped in, and Lu Yu in his arms looked around curiously.

There are two bird cages hanging on the branches in the yard, and in the cages are two parrots with bright and beautiful feathers.
