Chapter 22 The ship arrives at Fengxiang Mansion
Perhaps God felt that they had suffered enough tests, or they planned to leave the bigger ups and downs behind, so Han Shaofei and his party sailed at night, without encountering any more storms and rains, and there were no pursuers from the imperial court to kill, which could be regarded as a peaceful night.
This is a very good opportunity for people who have been on the run for a long time to recuperate. Sister Qi worked harder than them, after all, she had to take care of the baby Feng Mu, but it was those men, after they relaxed their vigilance, they all snored like thunder.
The next day, a red sun rose in the sky, and after breakfast, the boatman dragged his lame leg to the bow of the boat, and carefully pointed out the exhausted Han Shaofei and Eighteen, and the old nine and thirteen in the cabin walked out at this time.
Thirteen said to the boatman: "How to operate this ship, you tell us, eldest brother, they are already very tired, let them go back to the cabin to rest." ”
The boatman's face showed a look of joy, and he couldn't help asking: "Ladies and gentlemen, can you let me go back after you are familiar with the operation, I will teach you with my heart, and ensure that you can fully master it within a few days." ”
Thirteen didn't want to hit him, he didn't speak, Lao Jiu didn't say a word, and went straight past the rudder in Han Shaofei's hand, the boatman's spirit was very good, he felt that he would soon be able to get rid of these evil gods, after all, his leg was injured by Wang Dahai's dagger, and he was lame without timely treatment, saying that there was no resentment, it was impossible.
But he is an honest boatman, what ability does he have to deal with that thief with high martial arts, so no matter how big the grievance is, he can only hide it in his heart, as long as he can go home and reunite with his family, it is better to be lame than dead, and simple people can always find comfort in the worst environment.
Strange to say, the original gloomy weather has become clearer, the weather is as elusive as people's hearts, but it can't always be rainy, there are always sunny times. Just like the fate of life, it is not extremely Tailai.
The sailboat sailed smoothly, and after a day's sailing, it sailed for dozens of miles, and the boatman endured the pain, and saw that they were becoming more and more proficient, and his heart became more and more happy. At night, it was replaced by Han Shaofei and the two of them to control, and the boatman seemed to have forgotten his fatigue and refused to rest, so he wanted to guide the two of them so that they could fully master it as soon as possible.
After many days of hard work, the sailboat finally arrived at a very important transit station, and it is also a very important state capital of the Ming Dynasty - Fengxiang Mansion.
When the ship arrived at Fengxiang Mansion, the most nervous person was Han Shaofei, he had to plan again, how to avoid the heavily guarded pass, how to ensure that everyone could evacuate safely.
Because of the defeat of Chen Youliang, the Ming Dynasty has been greatly developed, and in the later Chengzu period, there was a great feat of Zheng He seven trips to the West, which shows that the Ming Dynasty has been mature enough in shipbuilding technology.
The Ming Dynasty naval division fleet is large, well-equipped, and powerful, all of which are the most at that time, and the Ming Dynasty naval division is equipped with hundreds of warships of various styles, and its main battle guns are more than 40 ship-borne guns, far exceeding the scale of the Spanish Invincible Armada and the British Royal Fleet at the same time, which can be called the first!
Han Shaofei was very worried, he didn't know how a small sailboat could break through the blockade of naval ships, if he wanted to abandon the sailboat and take the land route, it would only be more troublesome, and the goal would be greater.
I only hope that the news has not yet reached Fengxiang Mansion, but such a fluke is unrealistic, the soldiers who fled back from the riverside must have told them the direction of their escape, and the officials of the state and county must have already flown the pigeon to pass the news or hurry up to report the news.
Han Shaofei shuddered at the thought of a large group of ships waiting for him to fall into the net, God has been going smoothly these days, is it because he wants to arrange for them to report to the king of Hades early?
The sailboat is so small, it is impossible to hide, and there are three children, it is really frustrating, Han Shaofei has no idea, and he does not dare to sail the boat into Fengxiang Mansion, so he can only patrol around it.
He summoned everyone to discuss countermeasures, and Thirteen didn't say a word, eating an apple that was about to rot, and the storage technology was not very advanced at that time, which meant that the apple was preserved for a longer time.
Lao Jiu lowered his head and pondered, Wang Dahai was sharpening his nails with a dagger, and the eighteenth with a broken arm looked at Han Shaofei and asked: "Can we enter Fengxiang Mansion in batches, let the boatman and Sister Qi drive the boat, and we go ashore, after all, they are ordinary people, and the court will not embarrass them." ”
Han Shaofei thought for a while and said, "Although this method is not feasible, it can only be gambled. After he finished speaking, his eyes unconsciously glanced at the boatman.
The boatman shuddered a little, Wang Dahai listened to their words, and the resentment in his heart suddenly came out, and he scolded: "What is there to hesitate, I am worried that this little old man will betray us, so I will use the method of dealing with Lao Tzu, just do it again according to the gourd, don't tell Lao Tzu that your poison is gone." ”
Lao Jiu was still silent, looking at Wang Dahai angrily, to be honest, he also felt that he should do this, but was it too cruel to use this method to deal with an unarmed ordinary person who did not know martial arts.
"Give me the pill, you're embarrassed to do it, I'll come, I don't care so much. Wang Dahai said viciously to Lao Jiu, Lao Jiu ignored him, and the boatman on the side heard that he was going to use poison against him, and immediately begged for mercy: "Please let go of the little old man, I promise not to say a word, and I don't know what the government will say when I ask about it." ”
Sister Qi, who has always been very duty-bound, also said: "Just believe him, I don't think he will joke with his life, I will watch him, there will be no problems." ”
As she spoke, she touched the peerless secret weapon in the pocket of her clothes, and the white-headed palace maid told her not to use it until she had to use it as a last resort, and she kept it in mind and guarded it, as if she was guarding her own child, and did not dare to be sloppy.
Lao Jiu opened his mouth and said: "So far, it can only be like this, even if the boat family wants to report, the government will only treat him as our accomplice, and then he will be connected with the nine clans, and he will not joke with the lives of the whole family." ”
In fact, when he said this, most of them were motivated by intimidation and threats, but the boatman believed it, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he made up his mind that even if the officers and soldiers caught him, they could not be said to be their accomplices.
Sister Qi held the baby Feng Mu in her arms, and sailed towards the encirclement of the imperial court sailors with the boatman, while several brocade guards took the two children and Wang Dahai ashore, disguised themselves and acted separately, and they were bound to mix out of the city gate.
The sailor stopped the boatman's sailboat without accident, the boatman was so frightened that he trembled, Sister Qi hugged Feng Mu, her right hand was very close to the rainstorm pear flower needle, if there was a little accident, she would fight to break the net.
The boatman trembled and answered the question of the sailor, and said: "Lord Hui, I am not a local, so my accent is wrong, because my house was burned down by fire, and now I bring my wife and children to join my uncle." ”
"Who is your uncle, where does he live, and what do you do? If you can't answer, you will have to fall to the ground!"
"Hui, Lord Hui, his name is Li Chuwu, he lives in Xiaomiao Village, Shilipu in the east of the city, and he is also a fisherman. The boatman replied tremblingly. This answer was asked by Han Shaofei to say it, because Han Shaofei went ashore to do a probe and told him that he could get past in this way.
The patrolling sailors were verified by the household registration and confirmed that the boatman's words were correct, so he waved his hand and let them go, and the boatman and Sister Qi were relieved, and hurriedly drove the sailboat to the city.
