Chapter 326 Waterway
Liang Shao looked at Lu Qingyao with a firm attitude, sighed slightly, and hugged her in front of Yan Ying, "Oh, be careful in everything, don't force it, the future will be long."
From outsiders' eyes, this is clearly two stunning men hugging each other. Fortunately, they were in the room. Yan Ying looked at the nose and nose, and there was no expression.
It was already noon when Liang Shao was sent away. Lu Qingyao looked at Yan Ying dressed in a strong outfit and said in disagreement, "Yan Ying, I have never seen you wear a skirt since I met you. Since I became my maid, I will look like a maid. Let's go, I'm young, I will take you to dress up."
Yan Ying looked at Lu Qingyao in a good mood in surprise. Logically, the sect leader had just left, shouldn't she be disappointed, right?
Lu Qingyao was wearing a white brocade robe, and the folding fan hit her palms one after another, holding her head up and her chest out, which was very comfortable.
How many years have I not experienced the vicissitudes of life alone? Time flies, ten years have passed, and the helplessness and regrets before the death of life seem to be still in front of me, and in a flash it has changed. I have only experienced the number of times I went down the mountain in my previous life, and I have never felt the fireworks of the world until I die. Now I cherish the little things in front of me.
It is a joy to have Liang Shao accompany you, but everyone has their own responsibilities and it is impossible to rely on others in everything. Besides, she is not a spoiled lady. It is great for two people to do this. You have your ambitions, I have my dreams, rely on each other, support each other, and encourage each other.
Lu Qingyao doesn't want to break this balance. Her mother said that women should also have their own ideals and persistence. Women are the same as men and are not inferior to others. Only when they are outstanding enough can they attract outstanding people to admire you.
So even if Liang Shao is not by her side, she will enjoy life with all her heart and not let herself have any regrets.
A young young man with luxurious clothes and a little maid with a frosty expression, walked from a garment shop to a jewelry shop, and then to a rouge and powder shop. Along the way, he attracted the attention of many passers-by, but Lu Qingyao was as excited as she was, and she was looking like she was unaware of it, and she was very excited to change Yan Ying from head to toe.
Yan Ying was really not used to Lu Qingyao like this. She finally caught a gap and grabbed her, "Little... young master, stop buying it, enough."
Lu Qingyao circled around the heroic Yan Ying and couldn't help but exclaim, "Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk
Lu Qingyao used a fan to lift Yan Ying's chin. She was not as tall as Yan Ying's height, and she had to look up. The deliberately made gangster look a little more funny.
Yan Ying's eyelids twitched, and she held the sword in her hand tightly, "Young master, if you don't set out again, you won't be able to leave the city tonight."
After saying that, Yan Ying went to lead the horse, leaving Lu Qingyao to stare at her back and couldn't help but complain. This girl is really boring.
Lu Qingyao planned to find Qu Li first, and he should be on the way. From here, he had to pass through several towns to Jueyang. If he had to take the water, it would be much faster. Lu Qingyao decided to take a merchant ship before dark, go down the river, and go straight to Fengcheng, where Jueyang is located.
The two rode horses to the ferry, and there was a boat transporting spices to Fengcheng. After paying for the road, the merchant took them with them very readily.
Lu Qingyao swayed onto the boat, followed by Yan Ying, who was carrying a sword on his back and holding a sword in his hand, looked like she was keeping people from afar.
The ship owner is a very talkative middle-aged man. He claims his surname is Chen and is from Nanning. He has been doing business in Xigan for many years and mainly sells spices. This time he went to Fengcheng to pick up the goods.
Xigan and Nanning have been intimate for decades and often trade with each other, so it is not surprising to meet Nanning people in Xigan. After eating Boss Chen's wine, Lu Qingyao sat with him in the cabin and chatted with him. Yan Ying was on the deck and was doing her duty.
"Brother Lu, are you visiting relatives or having fun in Fengcheng?"
He has an extraordinary temperament, is generous, and has a maid who knows how to do Kung Fu. No matter how he looks at Lu Qingyao, he doesn't look like an ordinary young man.
Lu Qingyao drank a small wine contentedly and felt a happy life, as if she was really traveling around rather than killing people.
She replied, "I heard that the Wufeng River in Fengcheng is magnificent every summer when the tide is high, and I plan to take a look."
"It turns out that I went out for a trip. This is why the high tide of Wufeng River is indeed worth seeing. If the road goes well, we will be able to arrive in Fengcheng within two days, which is almost the right time to catch up with the high tide season."
Boss Chen has traveled around the country for many years, has rich experience and is also funny. He has told Lu Qingyao a lot of local customs and customs, especially when it comes to the situation in Nanning, Lu Qingyao is very interested.
"My life wish is to appreciate the world's customs. Now when Brother Chen talks about the beautiful scenery of Nanning, I yearn for it even more. I will definitely go to Nanning again in this life to experience the exotic style of Nanning."
"Hahaha, if Brother Lu really goes to Nanning one day, just go find me, I will do my best to be a landlord and treat Brother Lu well."
"I'll thank Brother Chen here first. By the way, Brother Chen said just now that Nanning has a lot of water, and the waterways must be very developed. No wonder Brother Chen mostly takes the waterways when doing business in West Gansu."
"Oh, Brother Lu doesn't know that Nanning's waterways are very prosperous, but the floods are also very serious, and the water bandits are rampant. It is not easy to make a living by relying on water. My ancestors were all fishermen and relying on water to get water. If I hadn't come to West to do some small business, I would probably be so poor that I couldn't even expose the pot."
"How could this happen? The court doesn't care? Since waterways are the foundation of a country, why doesn't the court send troops to eliminate water bandits and manage floods?"
"It shouldn't be discussed by ordinary people, but today I'm going to see Lu's old age, so it's okay to say more. Nanning is not as good as Xigan. The Nanning royal family has had difficulty in inheriting children since ancient times. There are countless emperors in all dynasties, but very few can give birth to princes. Take the current Nanning emperor for example. There are only three thousand beauties, only three princesses, not to mention the princes. Since the empress of the main palace gave birth to a son twenty years ago, no princes have been born in the palace."
Lu Qingyao was amazed, "After that's there a prince."
Boss Chen sipped the wine, "It's bad that the prince was suddenly kidnapped at the full moon. His whereabouts were still unknown, and the emperor never gave birth to a son again. For so many years, the debate about who succeeded to the throne has been rampant in the court. Anyone who is kinship with the royal family wants to adopt his children to the emperor. You say, such a priest has no mind to govern state affairs. In this court, the parties and scramble for each other, and the people can only suffer and suffer and suffer and suffer."
"Ah?" Lu Qingyao heard about the storytelling, but she didn't expect that Nanning would be so chaotic and the Nanning royal family would be in a slump.
"Have you never found the prince of Nanning?"
"How many troops have been sent to search for it, but there has been no news for so many years. I think it's hard."
"Is it the enemy who kidnapped the prince?"
"We ordinary people don't know about this. Zuo is just uneasy. I have also thought about it. If Nanning really wants to fight one day, I will bring the whole family to Xigan. Although it is a bit heavy as a foreigner, I can make a living at least, don't you?"
“That’s natural.”
Since the relationship between Xigan and Nanning, Xigan has been in marriage and business. Today, Xigan Emperor was quite clear in his early years and did not suppress foreigners, but only had some differences in taxes.
The two-day waterway was indeed as Boss Chen said. Lu Qingyao and Boss Chen had a great time and felt more sympathetic when they separated. They made an appointment if she went to Nanning in the future, she would definitely go to find him. Then she said goodbye to her and went on her itinerary.
After leaving the dock, the master and servant were about to find an inn to stay in, and then find out where the Jueyang Sect was located. As soon as they entered the city, someone suddenly followed them silently. Lu Qingyao and Yan Ying put a guise on the cover and hid behind a wall. A figure rushed out from the front of them. Yan Ying took action and grabbed the person's shoulder. With a force, the man screamed, "Oh, be gentle, your arm is about to break."
