Chapter 114: Cleaning the Toilet
In mid-spring, the warm breeze is smoky, and the river is full of sails.
Xu Qi'an stood on the deck and watched, watching the barges, official ships, and building ships sail slowly, the sails swelled to the limit, and returned to last year in a trance.
However, it was the middle of winter at that time, and the wind blowing on the river was like a cut, unlike now, when the spring was brilliant, and not far from the shore, there were flocks of wild ducks, and the fat ones made people swallow their saliva.
It's too far away for my gas machine to catch it........ The martial arts system is really low, I think I am a dignified six-grade, and I can't even fly......... Xu Qi'an sighed in disappointment.
And even if it is light work, it is far from being able to tread water, and there must be floating objects.
Maybe when he has five qualities, he will be able to float on the soles of his feet.
"Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao are not here, and without the praise of Lao Song, how boring the road is. Xu Qi'an sighed.
As soon as I thought so, out of the corner of my eye, I saw an acquaintance dressed as a maid in an indigo dress and come to the deck.
She is 30-35 years old, with an ordinary appearance, a tsundere temperament between her eyebrows and eyes, and a smile at the corners of her eyes, as if she came out to enjoy the warm and pleasant river breeze.
The two discovered each other almost at the same time, and the woman's face suddenly collapsed.
"Auntie, why are you here?"
Xu Qi'an stared at her in disbelief.
Auntie........ The woman's face twitched slightly, and she snorted coldly: "It's not that enemies don't get together." ”
I should have thought that his ability to solve cases was first-class in the world, and how could he be sent in such a case as the bloody slaughter of 3,000 miles.
Chu Xianglong told her that this time the Northern Bank was a cover-up and had sufficient escort forces, so he chose to set off with the mission investigating the "Three Thousand Miles of Blood Massacre".
She knew about this case, and as for who the organizer was, she was in a very bad mood at the time and didn't bother to ask.
"Auntie, why are you here?" Xu Qi'an looked at her.
"What does it have to do with you?"
The woman grimaced and threatened: "Don't call me aunt in the future, who is your superior, who is the host of the mission? If you dare to call me aunt again, I will let him clean you up." ”
"Auntie, aunt, aunt, aunt........" Xu Qi'an shouted one after another.
This bastard........ The woman was furious, her chest rose and fell with anger, she glared at him viciously, and said cruelly: "You wait for me." ”
She huffed away.
..........
Teaching Division, Yingmei Pavilion.
Fuxiang slept until the sun was shining before waking up, dressed in a thin gauze robe, bathing and grooming under the service of the maid.
The personal maid chuckled and said, "Is Lord Xu going to leave Beijing again to run errands?"
Fuxiang was stunned for a moment, tilted her head, and looked at the maid in surprise, "How do you know." ”
The maid pursed her lips and chuckled: "Yesterday, the bed was shaken to the third watch, and on weekdays, Lord Xu took pity on the lady, and he would definitely not toss so late." ”
Fuxiang said angrily: "Dead girl, she is getting bolder and bolder, even her aunt and grandmother dare to joke." ”
Between the laughter, the maid was suddenly taken aback, her face was extremely strange, and she said in a trembling voice: "Mother, mother........ You've got gray hair. ”
Fuxiang's smile slowly retracted, and said lightly: "Unplug it, what's the fuss." ”
After dressing up, she took the maid away and sat alone in front of the mirror, staring at her charming face and being silent for a long time.
.............
"Bang!"
The woman pushed open Chu Xianglong's door, and she pinched her waist in a maidservant dress, and said angrily: "A guy in the yamen of the watchman made me angry." ”
Chu Xianglong, who was meditating on his knees and treating the dark wounds of the meridians, opened his eyes and raised his eyebrows: "Who is it?"
The woman did not show her joy and anger at this time, and said word by word: "Yingong Xu Qi'an." ”
She has been bullied by Xu Qi'an several times, although she has been avenged for being smashed by gold, but the last time she watched Monk Jingsi fight in the ring, her daughter's body was taken advantage of by that kid.
The princess thought that she was a woman, and she endured it very aggrieved, but she didn't expect this guy to bully her and become addicted, and it was the aunt who slandered her just now.
Chu Xianglong frowned, "What happened to him?"
"He offended me. The princess's expression was cold, and the maid's clothes and mediocre facial features could not hide her noble atmosphere, and she said in a calm tone:
"You don't have to go too far, it's not a big deal, it's just a small punishment and a big commandment. ”
After speaking, seeing that Chu Xianglong did not agree, but frowned, she frowned lightly, and sneered: "Even if I go to the north, I will still be a princess." ”
Chu Xianglong shook his head, "The princess misunderstood, that kid....... He is the organizer of this northbound trip. ”
The princess's mouth opened slightly, and her gaze was slightly glazed.
Chu Xianglong continued: "But don't worry, it won't be long before he is proud, and I will rectify him." Even if it is the host appointed by His Majesty, it is temporary, the silver gong is the silver gong, and even if you add the identity of a viscount, you are a small person after all. ”
As a general with real power, the deputy general of King Zhenbei, ordinary nobles and officials, he really doesn't pay attention to it.
............
Three days have passed, and the waterway is quite stable, this kind of large official ship will not encounter water bandits, the scale is large, the grade is high, anyone can see that there are big people with different identities living on the ship.
And such big people are often accompanied by masters and elite guards, and ordinary bandits only dare to attack small merchant ships, and occasionally attack small government barges.
However, there is one thing that makes Xu Qi'an very distressed, the spring rainfall is abundant, the river is turbulent, not as calm as in winter, and from time to time there will be river winds and big waves.
For those who live in the cabin, it is uncomfortable, but it is not unbearable. But the forbidden soldiers who lived in the bilge were uncomfortable, and several of them had fallen ill.
On this day, after lunch, Xu Qi'an sat cross-legged in the room, "knock knock", and the door knocked.
Xu Qi'an, who heard the footsteps in advance, opened his eyes and frowned, "Come in." ”
The door was unlocked, and it was easily pushed open, and a stout man stepped over the threshold, lowered his head and clenched his fists, and said:
"Your Excellency. ”
This short, but burly enough man is the leader of the forbidden army, centurion Chen Xiao.
Xu Qi'an said unhappily: "What's the matter." ”
He was a little annoyed that this vulgar soldier didn't know how to be polite and disturbed his practice.
"Your Excellency, many of the soldiers are sick, please come and have a look. After Chen Xiao finished speaking, he seemed to be afraid of Xu Qi'an's refusal, and hurriedly added:
"I was afraid of causing an epidemic and endangering the adults on the ship. ”
This reason attracted Xu Qi'an's attention, and he immediately put on his boots and went to the bilge with centurion Chen Xiao.
"Knock Knock ......"
Under the leadership of Chen Xiao, Xu Qi'an entered the cabin along the wooden steps, and a dull and unpleasant smell poured into his nasal cavity, sweat, musty, and ammonia.......
This is because the air is not well circulated, but it is crowded with people, and they sleep and excrete in the bilge, so bacteria breed, plus seasickness........ Those who are weak will fall ill.
If you are not sick, you will also look sluggish.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, a pair of eyes looked over, and after realizing that it was the superior and the organizer of the mission, the soldiers straightened their waists and remained silent.
Xu Qi'an walked to the bed of a soldier who kept coughing and had a low-grade fever, the so-called bed was actually a narrow and simple wooden plank, so that the cabin could accommodate a hundred soldiers.
"It's no big deal, this official has Si Tianjian's antidote pill here, just one pill is put in water, and each infected person can be cured by drinking a sip. ”
Xu Qi'an made a judgment, immediately reached into his pocket, lightly buckled the surface of the jade mirror, and poured out a porcelain bottle.
After dripping blood to recognize the owner, the book from the ground has a close connection with the owner, taking things as you like, and not afraid of the contents being poured out.
He gave Chen Xiao an antidote pill, crushed it and threw it into the water bladder, and distributed it to the infected soldiers to drink.
Si Tianjian's high-grade pills, the effect was immediate, and the sick soldiers were pleasantly surprised to find that their lungs were no longer uncomfortable, their coughs were relieved, and their minds changed from drowsy to clear, except that they were still a little weak, and their physical state had undergone earth-shaking changes.
"Don't feel bad......"
"I'm all right. ”
"Thank you, sir, thank you. ”
The rest of the soldiers also smiled, and their eyes looked at Xu Qi'an with more gratitude and enthusiasm.
Xu Qi'an bowed slightly, then glanced at the toilet under the bed, couldn't help frowning, and reprimanded:
"What are you doing in the bilge, why don't you go out on deck to breathe. It's so smoky, it's no wonder you're not sick. ”
A hundred people, a hundred toilets, it doesn't look like they are brushed diligently, this is equivalent to living in a latrine, the air is not circulating, spring is the season for bacteria to breed, how can you not get sick.
If you can be diligent, clean the toilet every day, and go outside every day to get a good breath, with the physique of the soldiers, you should not fall ill easily.
"This ......."
Facing Xu Qi'an's questioning, Chen Xiao showed a bitter expression and said, "General Chu has an order not to let us leave the bilge or go to the deck." The brothers usually eat dry food in the bilge. ”
Hearing this, Xu Qi'an's face sank, stared at Chen Xiao, and asked, "Why?"
"General Chu instructed that there were female dependents on the ship, and they often went to the deck for a walk to watch the scenery, for fear that we would offend the female dependents. If there is disobedience, twenty rods are struck. ”
The sick soldier said, coughing.
Xu Qi'an didn't respond, his eyes swept over the dim bilge again, swept over the soldiers with straight backs, and swept over the toilet at their feet.
The damp smell in the air seemed to be a hundred times stronger at this moment, making Xu Qi'an want to escape from here.
And these soldiers have to sleep here, rest here, and even eat in such an environment.
Chen Xiao looked at him silently.
A hundred pairs of eyes looked at him silently.
Xu Qi'an suddenly understood that this visit was a cover, and the real purpose was for him to uphold justice.
Soldiers are also human beings, and they can no longer tolerate such an environment, and their hearts are full of resentment. At the same time, in their eyes, Xu Yinluo was the host of this mission, and he was the host of the imperial court.
They have grievances and demands, so they can only find Xu Qi'an, and they also think that only Xu Yinluo can administer justice for them.
If the organizers also let them shrink into the bilge and not allow them to go out, then they will die.
"I have only one command right now. Xu Qi'an frowned.
"Your Excellency, please. Chen Xiao lowered his head and clenched his fists.
"Your Excellency, please. ”
The soldiers stood up, bowed their heads and clenched their fists.
Xu Qi'an pointed to the deck above his head and shouted, "Get out and brush the toilet." ”
"Yes!"
"Thank you, thank you, thank you. ”
"Let's go, go to the toilet, I can't stand the smell anymore. ”
The cheers rang out all at once.
