At the early morning of August 12th, at the northern end of the Yizhou Sea, the bright moon drooped westward, the stars were dim, and the thin waves rolled to the horizon.

The old monk Jing Quan ordered the sail master to lower the sails, and the thirty-six sailors rowed desperately, and all three sails were lowered, while the speed of the boat did not decrease. At the same time, the large ship turned slightly and turned northward, trying to approach the coast of Changxi County as close as possible.

Seeing that everything was ready, Monk Jingquan waved his hand and a command quickly reached the bottom cabin. Thirty-six sailors stopped the oars together. The fifteen-foot sea boat still rushed forward half a mile. Then he slowly stopped. A three-foot wooden boat quickly went down to the sea. Monk Jingquan and four military officials took the lead on the wooden boat. Then three thick and powerful servants held Princess Qingle hostage and sat down in the basket and went into the boat. Princess Qingle was afraid that these evil people from the Eight Kingdoms of the Middle Heaven would harm Fangcha and Xiaoxiang, so she dared not resist.

There were six sailors in the wooden boat, who worked hard to row and quickly left the boat and headed towards the north coast. The sea area was about ten miles away from the shore.

It was the darkest time of night. When the wooden boat sailed twenty feet away, it was difficult to tell the shadow of the big ship, but you could hear the sound of the sailor rising rapidly on the big ship.

Princess Qingle was tightly wrapped around her arms and body by a servant, and said angrily: "Let me go, why are you still hanging me? Will I jump into the sea?"

The servant looked at the national master, the old monk Jingquan nodded, the servant loosened his arms, and the other two servants also let go of the fang tea and cumin. The two girls immediately snuggled up to Princess Qingle, and the three servants stared at them with their eyes not a moment.

Princess Qingle was deeply afraid of the uncertain future. She had been panic since she left Jinling, but she had been with her cousin Xuan, drawing portraits and dancing, but she had forgotten her worries. Now, cousin Xuan is not around, and these people forced her to hostage her to the Eight Kingdoms of Zhongtian. What should she do if she wants to be the princess of Zhang Sheng?

The sea breeze in Zhongqiu was quite cool, Fangcha shrank to the princess and asked whisper: "Your Highness, what should we do?"

"Shut up, don't talk!" a servant cursed immediately and fiercely.

Princess Qingle held Fangcha's waist and said angrily: "You can't even say anything? Tell me, what's your name? I will remember it."

When the servant heard this, he was worried. This was the future princess. Now he asked her name not for rewarding her in the future, but for revenge. The servant stuttered: "Princess, no, Your Highness the Princess can speak, but they can't do it."

When Princess Qingle saw the servant lady showing her timidity, she suddenly became angry and said, "If you don't let them speak, who will I talk to? Are you talking to you stupid people?"

Several servants were speechless and turned their heads to look at the national master.

Monk Jingquan smiled and said, "Your Highness the Princess can talk to others at will, but don't expect someone to come to save me! Also, after getting ashore, there is the territory of Wuyue Kingdom, and Wuyue Kingdom and Tang Kingdom are mortal enemies. If the princess falls into their hands, I'm afraid there is no one who treats me as politely as me."

Princess Qingle ignored the old bald donkey, held Fangcha in her left hand and Xiaoqian in her right hand, comforted her: "Don't be afraid, just say whatever you want."

Xiaoqian said in Princess Qingle's ear: "Princess, our boat is following behind. Now we are on the shore. My son-in-law must not know. He is chasing the big boat, which is bad!"

Princess Qingle asked: "Xiaoqi, do you think General Qi and the others have found Zhou Xuan?"

Xiao Xun nodded and said, "It must be found. My son-in-law will never die in the sea. The son-in-law has long said that he will live to be eighty and have many children--"

The old monk Jing is over 60 years old, but his ears are clear and clear. Although Xiaoqian speaks softly, the old monk Jingquan still hears it and laughs, "Is Your Highness talking about Zhou Xuanzhou Qicha, the newly popular man in the Tang Dynasty?"

Princess Qingle said, "Yes, it's my cousin Zhou Xuan. He has many capable people under him and will definitely come to save me."

The old monk Jingquan said, "I hope Zhou Xuan will come to save me? Hehe, the marriage envoy Zhou Qicha had already fed the sea fish with the prince of the Southern Han. This is not as good as the heavenly conscience. If it weren't for this sea god's wind, I would have had a lot of trouble to welcome the princess."

"You're talking nonsense!" Princess Qingle's face turned red with anger: "Cousin Xuan will definitely come to save me."

Xiaoxiang looked towards the sea on the right. The night was heavy and there was no trace of the "Lingfei Treasure Ship", while the small boat carrying them was rowing quickly towards the coast of Changxi County.

"What should I do? How can I make my son-in-law discover this boat? It's definitely not okay to yell. Not to mention that I can't hear it from a distance, I will be killed immediately. These people are so fierce! So what else can I do?"

Xiaoqian thought this way, and she firmly believed that her son-in-law was on the boat. She was fumbled in the small silk bag around her waist, and suddenly felt something. She was ecstatic. She quickly took it out and pinched it in her palm. After thinking about it, she quietly tore off a skirt and stuffed the object in Princess Qingle's hand.

Princess Qingle asked in a low voice: "What?"

The cumin had two words in Princess Qingle's palm. Princess Qingle's eyes lit up and nodded, took the cloth strip torn off by the cumin, and plucked up the courage. Suddenly, a fire rose up in response to the sound of the cloth strip, then lit it and held it high in her hand.

Seeing this, the three servants were stunned and didn't know how to deal with it.

Monk Jingquan shouted angrily: "Extinguish the fire!"

Before the three servants rushed forward, Princess Qingle threw the burning cloth strip in her hand into the sea. The cloth strip drew an arc of flames, falling into the sea, and it was quickly annihilated.

Monk Jingquan rushed over angrily and stared at Princess Qingle fiercely. The red monk robe was swaying in the sea breeze, like a fierce god of the secret sect.

Princess Qingle's heart was so scared that she was pounding. I wonder how the old bald donkey would punish her?

The old monk Jingquan shouted: "Search and take off all the things on her three people!"

The three servants only listened to the national master. No matter what the princess or the princesses were no longer the princess, they went forward to search for everything except clothes for Princess Qingle and the other two, and did not let go of necklaces and bracelets.

The old monk Jing Quan said: "Search in the skirt, don't hide anything like a knife."

A servant reached out to Princess Qingle's skirt and touched it randomly. Princess Qingle hit the servant's head hard. The servant let her beat it. The servant was searching for it. After a few touches, she couldn't touch anything. Suddenly, she touched Princess Qingle's small inside. This was the style painted by Zhou Xuan. It was just sewn the day before yesterday, and Princess Qingle put it on.

The servant felt strange, pulled it with his hands and muttered, "What is this?"

The old monk Jingquan thought he had touched some weapon, so he hurriedly asked, "What, take it out and take a look."

Princess Qingle was both ashamed and angry, and burst into tears.

The servant hurriedly stepped back and said to the old monk Jing Quan: "The national master is nothing, it's just a weird underwear."

Seeing Princess Qingle crying, the old monk Jingquan snorted coldly, "Prince Princess, please respect yourself, don't humiliate yourself. The king of my country is willing to marry Tang Kingdom, but if someone blocks it, the old monk can't calmly take His Highness to the Eight Kingdoms of Zhongtian, the old monk has to kill His Highness. Amitabha, the old monk will never lie." He said to the six sailors: "Start up the boat, the fire light just now is probably seen by the big ship behind!"

The "Lingfei" ship six miles apart indeed discovered this short fire. The whistleman who had been watching shouted: "Sir, sir, there is a fire on the front right! There is a fire on the front right!"

Zhou Xuan placed a short couch on the forecastle, covered it with a thin blanket, and curled up and lay on his side. Siqi was sitting cross-legged beside him. At this time, he heard the shouts of the sentryman and woke up. He quickly got up and looked to the front right, but he saw nothing. He asked the sentryman, and the sentryman said, "Report to the Duke of the County, the fire was extinguished in the blink of an eye, but it was indeed the fire. The villain would never read it wrong. The fire was about six miles away from the front right."

Zhou Xuan wiped his face with his hands to make himself more awake, and pondered: "Why did Monk Jingquan make a fire? On the right front, do they want to dock? This is the territory of Wu and Yue!"

General Qi said: "Monday Duke, the thief Tujing is full of tricks, and he is afraid of being cheated and trying to lead us to the dock and delay our chasing time."

Zhou Xuan said: "This is difficult. The old monk is real and real, making us not sure whether we are going ashore or continuing to be in the sea!"

Lin Ji said: "Wu Yue and the Eight Kingdoms of Zhongtian are separated by Qingyuan, and there is no contact. Monk Jingquan cannot take the princess ashore here. It is much more difficult to travel from here to Chaozhou than to the sea. The county lord, ignore their suspicious military strategy. We will chase forward with all our might, and after dawn, we can catch up with their ships and retake the princess."

Zhou Xuan said: "The most dangerous place is the safest and the most impossible thing to do. If they really take the princess to the shore, won't we lose it? We have to be careful, and we must take care of both sides."

General Qi said anxiously: "My Duke, we can't afford to delay. It takes at least one or two hours to dock. At that time, the barren boat had already gone far away. It was a hundred times more convenient to get to Chaozhou by sea than to land!"

Zhou Xuan said: "Let me think about it, what good way is there? - Let the big ship sail to the right first and get closer to the coast."

Zhou Xuan got down the forecastle and walked on the right side of the deck. Sini, Lin Ji, followed silently, and did not dare to disturb Zhou Xuan's thinking.

At this time, the healthy servant named Lihu, who was given to Zhou Xuan, who Wang Shizhang gave to Zhou Xuan, led the golden retriever Lulu, walked from the stern, came to Zhou Xuan, bowed and shouted: "Master."

Zhou Xuan looked at the green eyes of the golden retriever Lulu, and his heart moved, and asked, "Lihu, I have applied the spice that Weng Wang gave me, let's see if Lulu can find me?"

Zhou Xuan hid in the princess' study in the second-floor cabin. After a moment, Lulu followed the door with the Lihu and barked twice.

Zhou Xuan came out with a big laugh and said, "When you have it, prepare the boat immediately. I want to go ashore to investigate."

The Siniang asked: "The princess also applied this spice?"

Zhou Xuan said: "Yes, it's a pity that the bottle of spices and the secret medicine I fed the insects all fell into the sea."

The Sizi said: "Can the secret medicine for feeding insects be matched again."

Zhou Xuan asked: "Lao Si, Tang Xiaosan knows the formula of my secret medicine. Did he tell you?"

The Sichi hummed and said, "Tang Xiaosan's mouth is very tight and he refuses to say it."

Zhou Xuan laughed: "Tang Xiaosan was afraid that you would catch him and ask for the prescription. He swears to me that he would rather die than say it. Lao Si, you were very domineering at that time."

While speaking, the two of them went up to the deck. The "Lingfei" had turned around and sailed northwest. The two small boats were also hung on the starboard side and were ready to go into the water at any time.

Zhou Xuan said: "It's enough to have a boat. Lao Si and Li Hu, I, took Lulu and I to investigate. The big boat was sailing as usual. If it was found that Princess Qingle had not arrived, then we rushed forward and boarded the big boat again. This shouldn't be too late."

Lin Ji said: "Mr. Duke, I am humble and follow the Duke of the County."

Half an hour later, the "Lingfei" was already very close to the coast, and you could see a large area of ​​dark land.

Zhou Xuan, Siqi, Lin Ji, Lihu, and Golden Retriever Lulu went down to the boat. Lin Ji and Siqi rowed the boat and landed on the shore at dawn. It was a coincidence that after searching along the coast for three or four times, they found the three-foot wooden boat abandoned by Monk Jingquan and the others.

The golden retriever Lulu barked dozens of feet away from the wooden boat. Lihu could understand the meaning of Lulu and said to Zhou Xuan: "Master, Lulu smelled that fragrance."

The golden retriever Lulu became restless and barked towards the north, indicating that the fragrance was heading in that direction.

"Lingfei" sailed on the sea less than five miles away from the shore. Seeing Zhou Xuanta's gesture on the shore last time, he hurriedly retracted his sails and turned toward the shore. He first sent a small boat to drag a small iron anchor to test the waterway and confirmed that there were no reefs. Then he slowly approached the shore and the long pedals were set off.

General Qi was carried down by two soldiers in the palace, and Prince Xuezhu also came ashore under Chen Yanshou and Fei Qing's escort.

Zhou Xuan said: "The princess was indeed taken ashore by Monk Jingquan. She must chase after her immediately. She went to the cabin and stable to bring my 'Cloud Crane' and the princess's 'Maple Dew Purple'. She simply took the 'Zhaoye Yuhua Cang' down. It was the birthday gift given to the princess by the Queen. She originally planned to bring it out on the 15th August of the Princess' birthday to surprise the princess. Now we are short of mounts, so we will take it for the time being."

General Qi asked: "Monkey King should bring some people there."

Zhou Xuan said: "There is no need to be too many people. This is the territory of Wuyue Kingdom. It is not good if there are too many people. There is another thing that has to be guarded against, because Monk Jingquan is afraid that the princess will be tricked to be suspected, and he will take the princess to ashore here, run to the front and get on the boat again. This requires General Qi to continue chasing the boat. Regardless of whether the princess is on the boat or not, he will intercept it for me-" Paused for a moment and said with his ears: "You don't have to go to the Xing Palace. Just intercept the boat. If you find that there is no princess on the boat, you will immediately return to Tang Kingdom. This Lingfei must belong to us."
