"So... you're the only candidate?" Zhu Junfan asked deliberately.
Zhu Junyang nodded quickly, and said solemnly: "I think I am the most suitable candidate! I will use my life as a guarantee, and I will put the safety of the imperial envoy as the most important thing, even if I pay my own life!!"
Zhu Junfan said angrily: "Don't be so selfless!! You are protecting your little daughter-in-law!!"
"Who made my daughter-in-law belong to the imperial envoy?" Zhu Junyang raised his chin arrogantly!
"Hurry up and get the hell out of me!! I have to go back to bed and sleep in the cage!!" Zhu Junfan chased away angrily!
Seeing that Zhu Junyang had achieved his goal, when he left the palace, although his face was paralyzed as usual, those who were familiar with him could tell from the beating light in his phoenix eyes that he was in an extremely good mood.
However, his good mood only lasted for a day. On the second day, when the imperial decree came down, the personal guards of the imperial envoy changed from one to two. The other is Zhu Junyang's "rival" Su Ran who has never changed for thousands of years!
Zhu Junfan: Brat, you disturbed my slumber, and you still want to be happy? I don't have the surname Zhu if I don't disturb you! ! Well, in fact, his surname was not Zhu in his previous life!
You kid, don't you just want to live together with your daughter-in-law, and take the opportunity to travel and have a honeymoon when you are on a business trip? I'll send you an oversized light bulb! Don't you have a small reason to think so well that I have nothing to say? My reasons are also very good. The status of the imperial envoy is too precious, and the safety of the imperial envoy is too important. When one person is inevitably negligent, then add another master! Speaking of masters, who in the entire palace can compare to Chief Su
Ever since, the team going to Jiangnan changed from two to three. As for Mr. Wu, the person in charge of the Jinling Experimental Field, he was flamboyantly ignored.
After the news that the masters were going to the south of the Yangtze River came out, the servant girls and guards in Prince Xu's mansion became agitated. Being able to go out of Beijing with the master is very honorable in the hearts of the maids, especially in the season of fireworks in March, when they go to the Jiangnan where the willows are green and the flowers are red, they can enjoy the beautiful scenery that is completely different from the north. The maids who served personally in the master's courtyard all tried their best to show themselves in front of the master, hoping that they would be the one chosen to accompany them.
However, the prince said, this time the light car will be simple, and Hou Xiaoliang will be selected as the guard to serve the concubine's maid! Only choose one who knows kung fu and one who will serve you personally. He was afraid that there would be too many people, which would delay his private time with his wife.
A single person who knows kung fu will delete many people. In the inner courtyard, there are only five people who have kung fu. One of them was retired from the secret guards of Prince Jing's Mansion. He was in his thirties, and he didn't want to leave and marry, so he combed himself and stayed to serve his master. Xiaocao left him in the inner courtyard as a small steward.
The other two were sent by Mr. Su, who said they were retired guards due to injuries, and they stayed in the main courtyard to take care of the safety of the masters.
The remaining two are naturally Chunhua and Qiushi who have been with Xiaocao for several years. These two are the most suitable candidates. Not only are they highly skilled in martial arts, but they are also familiar with the temperament of their masters. Sure enough, the hostess chose Chunhua to accompany her.
As for the other maid who was serving her personally, after Hou Xiaoliang jumped up and down and blew the wind in the ear of the prince, and Xiaocao comprehensively weighed it, she chose Wutong. Among the maidservants in the mansion, Wutong has been with Xiaocao the longest, and she has performed well and is loyal for so many years. Gentle but not cowardly, courageous but not self-assertive, Xiaocao is quite satisfied with her.
It's a pity that the age has come, and with Hou Xiaoliang watching over him, he probably won't be able to stay for long. The guards around the prince are all high-ranking, so Wutong can't be an official wife and stay by her side to serve her. At that time, I'm afraid it will spread her reputation of being unreasonable and oppressing others.
On the second day after the edict came down, a group of people came to the pier and boarded a comfortable big boat. Daming's shipbuilding technology is already at the forefront of the world. Some large ships on long voyages are all produced by Royal Shipping, and their safety and comfort are guaranteed.
At this time, the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal was repaired and dredged every year. It was an important traffic route running through the north and the south, which facilitated the economic and cultural exchanges between the north and the south. After boarding the boat, Xiaocao and his wife were accommodated in the largest and most luxurious room, and Mr. Su's room was next door. And the old man with gray hair was arranged at the stern of the boat.
When Mr. Wu came to Beijing, although he also came by boat, but that kind of private boat, when the wind and waves were slightly stronger, the bumps were severe. This old man who was over half a century old was sadly seasick again. When he arrived in the capital, he almost lost his life.
But at this moment, he was standing at the stern of the ship, looking far into the distance, the green mountains on both sides of the strait against the green water, he felt like a poetic flourish. The big boat moved forward steadily, and there were bursts of water sounds in my ears, and occasionally one or two waterfowl cries...
Thinking about the invitation of a farming expert like Zhi Su Neishi this time, the rice output in the Jinling experimental field will definitely not be lower than that in the capital. Perhaps, he has always wanted to imitate the Jiangnan breeding base established in Beijing, and this time he is also preparing for it. At that time, the people in the south of the Yangtze River will be richer and become a veritable land of fish and rice! When he was in a good mood, the old lady didn't get seasick anymore, so she asked the imperial envoy from time to time to teach her some farming secrets.
What secret can Yu Xiaocao have? In her previous life and present life, she was an out-and-out northerner. Although she had cultivated land, she had never touched rice with such northern crops as wheat and soybeans. Her only secret weapon is the super gold finger, the Little Butian Stone. But... Xiaobutianshi seems to seldom come out to gain a sense of presence recently. Could it be that he has encountered problems in cultivation
[You have a problem because of your cultivation! Can't you think in a better way?]A white and fat little doll appeared in Xiaocao's room, and then gradually grew into a handsome and handsome boy with a speed visible to the naked eye.
Seeing this scene, Yu Xiaocao was dumbfounded, and said dumbfounded: "Little Tangyuan, you... your mana has improved again? Is this your illusion, or the body you cultivated?"
[Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, what is the body that is cultivated, the body still needs to be cultivated, isn't the body of the god stone worn on your wrist? This is the human form cultivated from the God Stone, how about it? Are you handsome? ] The young man was triumphant.
Yu Xiaocao said regretfully, "Oh! I still think it's more convenient for you to become a little golden cat. Otherwise, how can I explain it to the outside world when I'm on a business trip with a half-grown young man with me?"
[snort! You even brought your husband, so what's the point of bringing a younger brother?]Xiao Butianshi gave her a blank look, wandered around in her room, picked up her dressing box, fiddled with the rouge and gouache inside, and even picked up a pearl hairpin to gesticulate on his head!
Yu Xiaocao chuckled and said, "You like rouge, gouache and jewelry so much, why don't you cultivate the image of a girl? I can dress you up beautifully and fascinate those stinky men!"
"Who are you talking about a stinky man?" Zhu Junyang opened the door and came in, seeing a strange young man appearing in his and his wife's room, sitting by their bed, his brows were raised upright, his phoenix eyes sparkled. Out of cold light.
[Hello! What are you doing? Want to fight? Come, come, let's make gestures, others are afraid of you, but this god stone is not afraid of you! Slap you on the ground with one slap, and you won't even be able to get up!]The voice of Xiaobutianshi sounded in his mind at the right time. The familiar voice and the beating tone allowed Zhu Junyang to confirm its identity.
"Man and woman can't kiss each other. If you appear in this form, you can't go in and out of the princess's room at will!" Zhu Junyang stared at the little butian stone unhappily, but ignored its provocation. How could he compete with a stone spirit? Don't you have trouble with yourself
[You are a stone spirit, and your whole family is a stone spirit!]Xiao Butianshi deliberately walked to Xiaocao's side, touched her head for a while, and pulled her hand for a while. Seeing Zhu Junyang's face getting darker and darker, it felt very proud: Are you jealous? Sour you! !
Yu Xiaocao ignored this person's childish behavior, and slapped the little Butianshi who was bothering her away, straightened her clothes, and walked out the door: "Xiaoliang, the fishing rod and bait I asked you to prepare, How are you getting ready?"
Zhu Junyang originally wanted to see the opportunity, and was tired of being in the room with his wife, but now he was destroyed by a broken stone, what a bad luck! Seeing that his wife was going to go fishing on the deck, he followed her out. And the moment he stepped out of the room, a small golden figure rushed out from his feet.
Then came Wutong's surprised voice: "Isn't this a small glutinous rice ball? I haven't seen it for a long time. Why did you follow me on the boat?"
Yu Xiaocao shrugged her shoulders, and said casually: "Who knows! This guy is elusive, either invisible all day, or suddenly appeared. Maybe he knew we were going out, so he hid in the luggage and got on the boat!"
When Wutong thought about it, it was almost the same. This cat is so small that it nests in the corner of the luggage casually, and it is difficult for ordinary people to find it. Seeing it squatting solemnly on the side of the boat, flicking its tail and watching its master fishing, it's really cute.
Wutong took a step forward, hugged the golden kitten in his arms, pointed at the cat's nose and said: "Don't be naughty on the boat, you can't climb on the side of the boat, if you fall into the water, no one will save you! Obediently watch the master fish , catch a big fish and give you extra lunch at noon!"
Xiaobutianshi didn't struggle, and let Wutong scratch it with a look of enjoyment. Zhu Junyang glared at it resentfully, it would be nice to keep appearing in the form of a cat, and he insisted on getting a beautiful boy to add trouble to him. This product is absolutely deliberate! !
Looking at the cat nestling lazily in Wutong's arms, Zhu Junyang gave Hou Xiaoliang a special look, with the intention of watching the excitement.
When Hou Xiaoliang was looked at by his master, he felt a little nervous: I haven't done anything stupid or horribly stupid recently, have I? Master, what does this mean? Is there something wrong with the fishing rod and bait he just prepared for the princess
"Shhh, don't make noise! The fish is hooked!!" Wu Tong looked nervous, watching the fish floating on the water, and covered Xiaobutianshi's mouth with his hands. The golden kitten was stunned: Fuck! Who is arguing? Cover your nose and mouth and still let the cat breathe? If this god stone was a real cat, you would have killed it long ago! This is murder! !
Seeing the opportunity, Yu Xiaocao suddenly lifted the fishing rod, and a palm-sized crucian carp was lifted up. "Wow! I caught it! Ma'am, you are amazing!!" Wutong finally let go, and Xiaobutianshi took the opportunity to jump out of her arms.
Hou Xiaoliang immediately leaned forward dog-leggedly, helped take the crucian carp off the hook, and put bait on it again. The bait caught is thrown into a bucket filled with water. Hou Xiaoliang glanced at the master cautiously—you see, the little one is quite considerate in serving you, right
Zhu Junyang glanced at him indifferently, took a stool, sat down beside his wife, took another fishing rod, and was about to sit down. Suddenly, the fishing rod in his hand was pulled by an external force, and he swung his hand involuntarily towards the figure beside him, but was blocked by an arm.
Taking a closer look, it turned out to be Su Ran! Hmph, not to mention disturbing the two-person world between him and his wife, but also snatching his fishing rod, if this can be endured, is he still a man? So, a ruthless attack came over.
