Chapter 121(1/2)
After taking a shower, Chu Yu saw Qin Sheng folding his lower abdomen with his eyes closed and his hands folded, lying flat on the bed with a steady and elegant look, but there was a hint of redness on his face.
She didn't think much about it, and just turned off the lights and went to bed.
Listening to the regular and steady breathing sounds coming from beside him, Qin Sheng slowly opened his eyes, and his cold eyes quietly looked at the gauze tent above his head - in a daze.
…*…*…*…*…
Yunzhou
Fireworks in March, the bells fly and the grass grows.
On a pleasure boat beside the Huanjian Lake, two women were quietly sitting opposite the small table with carved mahogany and shells.
One of them is wearing a woman's bun and a scented robe with a slim figure. The other one is petite and delicate, with a green embroidered flying crane, and she still looks like an unmarried girl.
"Although Marquis of Jin is no longer an official in the court, he has always admired the Marquis of Marquis. When he was inspecting southern Hunan, he was still the Marquis of Marquis who were receiving him. He has been neglecting his relationship for many years. But I think the Marquis of Marquis will not blame him for being a gentleman." The woman smiled faintly and poured a cup of tea for the girl.
Jin Siyun looked at her and looked like a smile: "Why should you be humble to yourself? My father praised you for your keenness and intelligence, and you will definitely be able to rise to the top. My daughter has no talent as a talent. The female official tried twice, so she had to take over the family's common affairs and take care of some dowry shops."
Qin Nanyue chuckled: "Miss is really too modest. The momentum of Jinyun Weaving in southern Hunan is not inferior to Nanfeng Weaving. Now Nanfeng Weaving is gone. I think this official power will probably be in the hands of the lady in the future."
Jin Siyun said modestly: "I dare not say this."
Nan Qinyue looked at Jin Siyun and curled her lips slightly: "No, it must be yours."
Jin Siyun's hands were drinking tea, and raised her eyes and looked at Nan Qinyue calmly: "Oh, look at the meaning of Nan Nu Shi, it seems that there is a conclusion?"
"I have been in charge of the palace for several years, and some news is mostly very informative. As long as Jin Yun weaving does not cooperate with those who commit the official affairs, I think the will of the palace will come soon." Nan Qinyue looked at Jin Siyun calmly and said meaningfully.
"Those who commit the official affairs?" Jin Siyun raised his eyebrows: "Siyun doesn't understand what you mean."
Nan Qinyue only felt that she was pretending, so she said lightly: "Chu Yu, who was weaving in Tiangong, is suspected of murdering Prince Lian of the current dynasty. This official was ordered to investigate the matter. Ms. Jin should understand that working with such a toxic woman will only cause trouble for herself?"
This was a bit rude and vaguely threatening.
Jin Siyun paused, raised his eyebrows, and still smiled: "Is that right? But why have I never heard the government officials mention this? If this is true, it would be the government that looks like it. Is there no one in the yamen? Is there anyone in the palace who needs a female official who is in charge of the palace to investigate the case? Will you need Lord Shanggong, who is in charge of the Sixth Bureau, to lead troops to fight tomorrow?"
Jin Siyun's unceremonious move made Nan Qinyue's face slightly stiff.
She had never expected that Jin Siyun would not give her face like this.
Nan Qinyue paused and looked at Jin Siyun, with a smile on her face: "It seems that Miss Jin is quite puzzled, but it is not convenient to tell you in detail about the matter in the court palace. But you don't believe me, don't you believe in your father either?"
She had already made people beat Master Jin. Although the other party was unhappy, after measuring, he promised not to interfere in the matter.
Jin Siyun paused and looked at Nan Qinyue lightly: "It seems that Mr. Shi is well-informed. Yes, my father's handwriting has already reached my hands yesterday. However, my father has long since retired from the court for unemployment. These family affairs have been taken care of by little girls for a long time. My father didn't understand that there are some of them. So whether to cooperate with Miss Chu is a matter that the little girl has decided, so you don't have to worry about it."
Nan Qinyue narrowed her eyes slightly and suppressed the anger in her heart. She had experienced a lot of storms, so this was nothing.
She just stood up and said with a smile: "It seems that Miss Jin has made a decision. I think you think Chu Yu's identity as a Qin player can help you, but I only hope that the chip you bought can really help you, not drag you down. After all, I have been in the palace for many years and have never heard of the third master of Qin player who has any aunt."
When Jin Siyun heard this, she was stunned for a moment. She was thinking about the meaning of Nan Qinyue's words, but suddenly she heard a female manager around her coming to report.
"Miss, the prayer letter sent to Qinjia Embroidery Workshop was returned. The people from Qinjia Embroidery Workshop said that Miss Chu was infected with cold and was unwell and had not seen any visitors for these days."
When Nan Qinyue heard this, her eyes turned slightly, and then she laughed: "I'm afraid this false Miss Chu is guilty."
Jin Siyun paused in her heart, then turned to look at Nan Qinyue, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "I thank you for your advice, but my daughter has already opened the Jiangnan silk warehouse. The lack of silk information in Jiangnan is a business opportunity for the little girl. Even if she does not cooperate with the Chu family, the little girl will not miss this business opportunity, so you should go back."
Nan Qinyue looked at Jin Siyun with a little shady look: "It seems that Miss Jin has made up her mind, I hope you don't regret it in the future."
After saying that, she left with her sleeves.
Watching Nan Qinyue get off the boat and leave, the female manager who is following Jin Siyun, frowned slightly: "Miss, are you really going to bet on the eldest lady of the Chu family? After all, she is not surnamed Qin, but just a relative. Now, listening to the meaning of Mingyue's Nvshi, this Miss Chu has a problem with her identity."
"I know that Nan Qinyue's dare to say this will definitely not be aimless, but..."
A trace of sharp and coldness that businessmen all flashed in Jin Siyun's round eyes, which was different from her usual gentle and friendly appearance: "In Shangyan Business, this noble female Lord Shi probably disdained to visit Tiangong Embroidery Works and saw the masterpiece of the Chu family. It is even better to see how Miss Chu's family beat the young master of the Gong family in person. What kind of identity does not affect her own abilities. She can support the Qin family. Even if she is a beggar on the roadside, she is not an ordinary person."
"Miss is talking," the female manager nodded, then whispered in Jin Siyun's ear: "Miss, the adult who went to Beijing has a letter."
Jin Siyun took the letter she handed over, opened it, and curled the corners of her lips with a smile: "Ha, sure enough, the censor of the Lu family in Shangjing also has the same meaning as me. She wished to see Nan Qinyue being defeated. Our treasure this time will be on this Chu family lady."
...
Let’s talk about the Nan Qinyue coming to the shore. The guard chief Leng Yang had already been waiting on the shore. When he saw her coming up, he immediately stepped forward and said, “Sir, how about it?”
"As I expected, Jin Siyun is not easy to deal with, and he will not eat the soft and hard."
Nan Qinyue reached out to hold Leng Yang's arm, turned around coldly to glance at the embroidery workshop in Huanjian Lake, and then sneered: "But I got interesting news. The Miss Chu was actually sick and was behind closed doors to thank the guests."
Leng Yang paused and thoughtful: "Yesterday someone saw a large number of people appearing in the back door of the Qinjia. It is said that he went to the business, but I heard that they were all self-superior men. It is not easy to think about it now."
Nan Qinyue raised her eyebrows, and slowly a strange and cold smile appeared on the corners of her lips: "Ah, then it seems that the plan has worked, and they are going to Shuzhong."
Leng Yang paused: "How do we do next, sir?"
Nan Qinyue chuckled: "Since the plan to force them to go to Shuzhong has worked, we will go to the yamen to sit down, then tap on the side, and also show my father that we really put pressure on the Qin master, so that he can always urge me."
She held Leng Yang's hand into the carriage, paused, and ordered: "Also, spread the news that Chu Yu was about to appear in Shu to the rivers and lakes."
Leng Yang nodded immediately when he heard this: "Yes, sir."
Nan Qinyue suddenly reached out and grabbed Leng Yang who was about to leave, and chuckled: "Leng Yang, come up to serve me, I am in a very good mood today."
Leng Yang paused, then raised his robe and got into the car.
As soon as he put down the curtain of the car, Nan Qinyue fell into his arms and smiled charmingly: "The fun here is better than that in the bed."

...
"I left Baidi in the morning among the colorful clouds, and returned thousands of miles of Jiangling in one day. The monkeys on both sides could not stop crying, and the light boats had already passed thousands of mountains."
Clear clouds linger and smoke curling.
The wind is gentle, bringing the fragrance of the mixed grass and water vapor blows through your ears.
Chu Yu couldn't help but squint his eyes comfortably, and couldn't help but whisper the Tang poem in his memory, feeling that nothing was more suitable than this poem.
She leaned beside the boat, quietly looking at the steep and beautiful cliffs in the south of the Yangtze River on both sides. Occasionally, she saw a monkey jumping past, and she felt really relaxed and happy.
This time, according to Feng Yi's plan, they delayed a lot of time all the way around the road, but they also concealed their traces well.
Then he abandoned the carriage and took a boat to the southwest. After walking for more than half a month, he finally arrived at this place in Bashu.
However, after so long, I don’t know how many useful traces they could see when they arrived at Tangjiabao, which would be helpful for finding out the truth.
She couldn't help but frown slightly and sighed.
At this moment, the hull suddenly felt a sound from the shopkeeper: "It's time to the shore, it's time to the shore. Guests should get off the boat, and everyone should get on board is ready. Let's start the boat tomorrow morning!"
Chu Yu was stunned and looked at the sky. It was already evening. No wonder he had to shore. At night, the Jiajiang River was turbulent and difficult to leave. He had to stay in bed or find an inn to rest.
She looked up at the town, but saw the blue bricks winding up the road, and a wooden archway was built from a distance, with three big characters written on it - the mouth of the porcelain.
She thought about it and remembered that Lao Hu had said before that this was a small town that was famous for its reliance on the transportation and trafficking of porcelain from Bashu. Some snacks were very good and were quite suitable for the cat at home.
She decided to go back to her room and ask everyone to prepare for a boat dinner and stay, and then visit this exquisite town.
The group got off the boat and climbed the long stone steps. Sure enough, they saw the town exposed in front of them very lively and people came and went.
"Let's have a meal first." Feng Yi looked around and chose an inn that looked quite clean.
Chu Yu led everyone into the inn. When ordering dishes, he smiled and told the waiter on the side: "Do you have the best milk here? Can you warm up a cup of it?"
The waiter was stunned: "Milk, people here rarely drink this thing, but objectively, the villain will come for you."
As he said that, his eyes flashed curiously over Qin Sheng, who was wearing a hood covering his face, and then left.
Chu Yu thought about it, then took out a small bag of dried plum fish from the bag and put it in front of Qin Sheng: "Baibai, eat some dried fish first to deliver the meal, and the milk will come later."
Huo Sanniang watched Qin Sheng slowly took the dried fish and used it gracefully, and couldn't help but feel hot.
"Precisely, the lady brought so much dried fish, and only gave it to the young master alone!"
"Do you want it?" Qin Sheng glanced at Huo Sanniang lightly.
Huo Sanniang froze, shook her head immediately, and smiled flatteringly: "No, the young master."
How dare she? This cat protects food and food so much.
Chu Yu patted Qin Sheng's hand helplessly: "Okay, don't bully Sanniang. After three days of the boat, I just wiped my body. Wouldn't you feel uncomfortable? We'll take a shower and take a nap for two hours. I heard that this is a freight terminal, so there is no curfew, and the later it becomes more lively."
She also planned to have a sleep and take everyone to the night market, which is the most lively midnight.
When they heard that there was a night market to visit, the Huo sisters also lit up their eyes. They were also preparing to go and see if there was any wild food nearby to eat.
When everyone was about to finish their meal, the hot milk came on. Qin Sheng slowly finished drinking it, packed it up before he was willing to follow Chu Yu back to the room.
The hot water in the room was already ready, so Chu Yu still sent Qin Sheng to take a shower as usual, and she went to tidy up her clothes first.
Halfway through her tidying up, she suddenly heard a pleasant and soft voice from behind her: "Clothes, fish."
Well, the little ancestor Baibai has finished washing.
Chu Yu pulled the prepared cloth towel and threw it down in front of the beauty in the bathtub. He was lucky in Dantian and raised his hand and picked him up horizontally and carried it onto the bed.
Qin Sheng sat quietly in the quilt, letting her take care of herself.
These days, he has become accustomed to Chu Yu holding him to bed like this.
After carefully wiping his hair, Chu Yu lowered his head and kissed him on the forehead with a smile: "Okay, go to bed quickly, my aunt will be back in a while. It's fun to go after you have enough sleep."
