Spring flowers

Chapter 43, get off the boat and stroll

There was a running sound on the boat, and in a hurry, the people who got on the boat couldn't figure out where the scream came from. And the people on the boat quickly responded. They didn't have time to wear clothes and rushed out with the guy in their hands.

There was a jingle of swords and crosstalk outside. Lotus ran from her bed to Xiaochu's side. While she was afraid, she wanted to comfort people: "Don't be afraid of Xiaochu. Don't be afraid of Xiaoyi. I'm not afraid."

Three people huddled in a quilt and saw the quilt trembling from the outside. It is unknown who is shaking violently. Anyway, the three people are afraid, and Lin Xiaochu is no exception.

There was only a jingle in his ears. After a while, there was a knock on the door. Chu Huaixian shouted and asked, "How are you? Don't come out." Xiaochu Lotus and Xiaoyi agreed together: "I won't come out." Even if you die, you won't go out. It's the safest and warmest in this quilt.

Chu Huaixian still had time to smile, avoiding the split knife, stabbed the other party's arm with a sword, and the knife fell to the ground, and the injured person turned around and left. The three people in the room listened to the knife fall to the ground. First, they were shocked, and then they listened to the noise, as if the sound outside the door was getting farther away, and then they were relieved at the same time.

The night flows quietly in the hull and the river. In the endless darkness, the man in black comes and retreats quickly. The river is occasionally reflective and sparkling, and the air is so cold that it makes people feel like a layer of frost on their faces. Chu Huaixian wiped the long sword clean, and the tip of his nose could smell blood. Not only the sword is still there, but also blood on the deck. These are the dozen people in black.

"Cough, Brother Huaixian, you are really good at it." Liang Long is a weak scholar, and it's okay to fight with his brothers. At this time, he wisely didn't come out until now.

The sailors on the ship cleaned the blood stains on the deck and inspected the equipment on the ship. A family member hurried over and replied, "Sir, they are chiseling the bottom of the boat. Fortunately, they found out early."

Who has been unable to pass me several times? Chu Huaixian looked at the dark river and suddenly asked, "Whose rule is this under?" The family has recognized it for a long time and answered: "What is the garrison here?" Chu Huaixian, who was familiar with officials everywhere, narrowed his eyes. He Fu was born with King Zhongshan. The last assassin was extremely stupid, wearing the waist card of King Zhongshan. Thinking of their chiseling the bottom of the boat, Chu Huaixian sneered and whispered, "Since you want me to go ashore, then go ashore and have a look."

At that moment, he ordered Jin Xier: "Leave Jincai and wait for us on the wharf outside Jingmen. If you call them up, it may be much safer to walk on the ground than on the boat.

Xiaochu, lotus and small noodles in the hatch of the ship looked at each other, but to make them think about it, it is much safer to walk on the ground and stay in the shop than in this lonely boat. Without waiting for Xi'er to come over, the three of them turned around together and went to pack their bags. When I turned around, I saw the fragrance of my hand holding the board wall, and the pale fragrance whispered, "Oh, have you seen such a big pool of blood?"

Xiaoyi raised his nose and smiled: "Just don't look at the deck, I'll just look at the sky." Lin Xiaochu said with concern, "Are you afraid? I'll help you into the cabin. We're going ashore. It's more lively than the boat. The Spring Festival is about to come. In fact, I like walking on land to see the scenery along the way.

The fragrance showed hesitation and said pitifully, "Will he take me away?" Jin Xier came over and heard this sentence. She only said behind her back, "You all packed up and just take two or three pieces of clothes with you. Just buy them if you don't have enough clothes on the road."

Xiaochu waited for three people to go back to pack up their things, but the assassins were afraid that there were not many, and there were a lot of fun on the shore to watch the bustle. While cleaning up the room, Xiangxiang and Zhu Niang came over together. The two people were more uncertain than the other. Zhu Niang and Liang Longzheng asked first, "How can we get there?"

"I don't know yet. We are all women who can't walk. We have to have a car." This is what the lotus conjectures. Fragrant smiling face: "I only have to wear one suit, and this body is still replaced by the lotus girl."

Xiaochu handed over a set of white silk shirt and red silk skirt jacket and said with a smile, "You wrap this again. We can use what we have on the way."

On the deck, Liang Long is deconciling tonight for Chu Huaixian: "If you want to check the details of these people, it is much more convenient to take the boy alone. Although I'm not talented, I can send these girls to Beijing.

"Let's go shopping together. There is a good scenery on the shore. It would be great for us to go to Beijing." Chu Huaixian smiled thoughtlessly, as if he had forgotten when he had just been assassinated.

Jin Xier came out with a big burden on her back and asked the sailors to find a place to dock the big ship. The assassin came in the early morning, and it was only half a few times before the fifth watch. The women came out with their bags on their backs. Chu Huaixian stood upright with his hands on the bow, and a cold light flashed around his waist in the dark night. The gems set on his sword were shining.

The north wind blew up the prince's coat. He did not wear a cloak, and his messy black hair brushed his face, looking like a god. The fragrance can't hide the flowing feelings in the heart. It's ridiculous for the top card to fall in love with guests, but the fragrance is more or less affectionate. If you ask her whether she likes Chu Huaixian's family background or appearance, this is actually mixed together.

Xiaochu also felt that the prince was more handsome tonight, especially when he repelled the thief and made the girl more admire him. Looking at Zhu Niang secretly, she only looked at Liang Longzheng; then looked at the lotus, and then, her eyes were extra talkous.

"Have you dressed enough?" Hearing the movement behind him, Chu Huaixian turned around and asked cold and warm. Xiang lowered his head as soon as he touched his eyes. In fact, he also understood that Chu Huaixian was looking at everyone.

In this scene, Fangxiang didn't dare to reply. Zhu Niang smiled respectfully. Xiaochu did not grab this first place, only Lotus replied, "That's enough. Let's get a cloak for you?" Xiaoyi has been told many times by his sister. It's not that the prince points to his name alone and asks questions, so that he doesn't grab words back when there are many people.

"No." Chu Huaixian turned back just to ask about coldness and warmth, said that he turned around and stared at the estuary. Of course, he had something on his mind. The little original thought, you should also think about it at this time.

Because it's night, the road here is not familiar. If the boat stops, you can hear the sound of the fifth watch. Jin Xier looked around and said, "There are lights there. I just saw that it should be a market town. The sound spreads in the wilderness, and the sound is also far away.

The prince suddenly rose up and got off the boat with the girls, acting like a spoiled prince on the road. Xiaochu can walk, but it's okay to be small. The lotus bead has worked hard and can keep up. Only the fragrance didn't go far and was a little tired. The sweat wet the clothes, and the sweat followed strongly.

The sky is bright, and you can see that there is a small village not far ahead. The roosters sounded one after another, and a thatched hut appeared on the roadside. Chu Huaixian asked Jin Xier to have a look: "Give them money, let's make a hot meal, and then wait here for you to find the carriage."

The prince is really considerate. Xiangxiang is particularly envious of Xiaochu and Lotus. On the boat, she expressed her envy or false. She felt that she was enslaved when she was a girl. Now she thinks it's really good to follow a master like Mr. Chu. He can also think of the girls if they don't walk much.

Chu Huaixian felt that it was not like a group of people going on the road like this. It was comfortable and convenient to hire two carriages to sit together together. Jin Xier came back for a while: "I agreed with the owner of the house that the prince will take his sisters to eat here, and I will look for a car in front."

, the owner and his wife are very honest. Jin Xier said that they are washing their hands, washing dishes and cooking. Lotus didn't do this work for a long time and was a little itchy: "I'll help wash the vegetables," the hostess looked at her dress and brocade jacket and dared not let the lotus flowers wash the vegetables: "It's cold and wet the clothes." Lotus thought about it and borrowed an old dress from the hostess to help burn the fire.

Xiaochu took out the young man's tea bowl with his bag and asked the owner for hot water to clean the noodles first, and then everyone. When I went to the kitchen to see the dishes, I came back and said, "There are only small dishes for wheat rice. I'm afraid that the princes won't get used to it. They have chickens. Buy two and I'll cook them for the princes.

"Oi, go and help me clean it up." Chu Huaixian took out the silver and gave it to Xiaochu and said, "You can leave the rest and buy it for yourself."

Liang Longzheng is also satisfied: "She will serve now."

Zhu Niang can only know how to be pregnant. She is embarrassed to smell the fragrance. She went outside and saw something, so she went to help the lotus burn the fire. In fact, he stood next to him and talked to the lotus until the meal was cooked.

Xiaochu asked the owner of the house to buy two roosters, wrap them in wet mud and make beggar chickens and put them in the stove. When the rice is cooked, the chicken will be ready. When the fire in the stove went out, he pulled out the two large mud masses with a fire stick, and Xiaoyi couldn't take his eyes off the side. Looking at the dry mud knocked down outside, Xiaochu took a few clean handkerchiefs to peel off the chicken skin inside. The chicken was white and tender and richly cut into two plates, and brought up the wheat rice for the princes to use first.

The hostess watched them wash their hands and serve meals in the kitchen and laughed quietly, "I don't love anything else, I just love you to act, so I'm not an ordinary person." Xiaochu Lotus smiled at her.

"You also sit down. You don't have to pay attention outside." As soon as Chu Huaixian's chicken was carried on the chopsticks, Liang Longzheng had already bit a piece. He immediately sucked his mouth and said, "It's hot, hot," and he couldn't bear to throw it away. He simply put down his chopsticks and pinched the chicken with his hand to eat it, which caused a lot of laughter.

Chu Huaixian used a lot, put down his chopsticks and said, "This meal is good, not worse than that at home." Lin Xiaochu couldn't help bowing his head and smiling. Ordinary wheat rice is always rough, pickled beans and pickled radishes are all common rice in farmers. Chu Huaixian saw her laughing and knew that it was a joke on herself. He also joked with her, "Don't laugh. I like to eat, and you are tired of doing it every day." Then he laughed: "I really don't know what you're laughing at when you eat."

Xiaochu, holding a bowl in his hand, raised his head and smiled: "The prince likes to eat, so I will make it for you every day." Lotus is also eating chicken, and I think it tastes delicious. The corners of the eyes were red again, and the lotus only ate its own food. That is, Lin Xiaochu, and the prince are so envious.
