I heard that the bamboo horse has a crush on me

Ji Beicheng stroked his slightly frowned eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Don't be annoyed, Lord Hou, I'll let you be on top next time."

Shen Bi glanced at him, I believe you a ghost!

Since the last time Shen Bi left from the southwest, Ji Beicheng sent someone to look for Shen Qiuhong after hearing that he was back, but there was no news of him.Now that the meeting is coming, it is inevitable to ask about the progress of the matter, Shen Bi frowned even deeper, "I don't know why, all the people sent out never returned."

"Going and never coming back..." Ji Beicheng was very surprised, "I guess, those people must have been forcibly left behind in some way—either locked up or killed."

After hearing this, Shen Bi couldn't help feeling anxious, "Is it Shen Qiuhong?"

"Don't worry, I'll send some people to inquire again!" Ji Beicheng patted him on the back, "Dongying is so big, there are countless places for him to hide, if he doesn't want you to find him, no matter how anxious you are, it's useless .”

How could Shen Bi not be in a hurry?Xue Shi's words were like an untimely bomb. During the time he was injured, he wanted Ji Beicheng to go to the capital to meet Xue Shi, but he committed suicide in prison, and there was no follow-up to this matter. The past few months have been calm but Shen Bi always feels deeply uneasy, just like knowing that there is an evil dragon underwater, but not knowing when this evil dragon will break out of the water and spread its minions.

"When Yunxian is full moon, I will go to Fuzhou, you can take him back to the southwest, I will rest assured to follow you!"

"it is good."

Because during the national mourning period, Yunxian's full moon wine was not arranged in a big way, Shen Bi only planned to celebrate briefly with Ji Beicheng, but Lin Rongchen and Yan Xi came here in disguise.

When Yan Xi saw the child, she snatched it from Ji Beicheng's hands, and held it until she left before returning it reluctantly.

When the two left, Lin Rongchen gave Shen Bi a wink.

Three days later, Ji Beicheng took Yun Xian to the southwest with his front foot, and Shen Bi entered the palace to face the saint with his back foot.Coincidentally, Yan Xi was also in the imperial study at this time.

Shen Bi had seen the two of them, and after saluting, he asked: "Is the emperor has something to tell the minister?"

The look in Lin Rongchen's leaving that day clearly had something to say to him, and he had to avoid Ji Beicheng.

Lin Rongchen pointed to the memorial on the table solemnly, "Abi, I have received many anonymous memorials recently, saying that your father colluded with the enemy and treasoned the country, did not die, and lived happily in Dongying."

Shen Bi took two steps back, her thin body was on the verge of falling, the one that should come still came.Fortunately, he sent Ji Beicheng and Yunxian away.

Seeing his reaction, Lin Rongchen suddenly got up, "You already knew?"

Shen Bi nodded, telling the truth, "Xue Shi told me before he died. He said that Shen Qiuhong fell in love with a Dongying woman and wanted to stay with that woman forever, so under the pretext of attacking Dongying, the golden cicada escaped and left behind. In Japan."

Lin Rongchen frowned, and said for a long time: "Collaboration with the enemy and treason, do you know what the crime is?"

Shen Bi raised his eyes, "I know. Zhu Jiu Clan."

When Yan Xi heard this, she put down her pen and said lightly, "Is the emperor going to 'cook the rabbit to death'?"

"Yun Xin, how can you miss me so much?" Lin Rongchen was slightly annoyed.

"It's not that the emperor has never done this kind of thing." He was just speaking from experience.

Lin Rongchen distinguished: "If I really intend to deal with him, I won't suppress all these memorials!"

"All mouths make gold, just relying on blocking, how long does the emperor think you can block?"

"I have asked people to follow these memorials to investigate, and they will always find out something."

"Your Majesty, I want to find out this matter myself." From the moment Yan Xi answered the words, Shen Bi remained silent, and when he heard that Lin Rongchen was going to make an unannounced visit, he expressed his thoughts.

Lin Rongchen looked sideways, "Do you have a clue?"

Shen Bi nodded, "I have met Shen Qiuhong's old department, he knows something about Shen Qiuhong, I want to find him."

Lin Rongchen thought for a while, then nodded, "Alright. It's just that this matter needs to be investigated as soon as possible, and it's best to figure everything out before the matter develops to the point of getting out of hand."

"Yes." Shen Bi said, "Your Majesty, please keep this matter from Ji Beicheng."

Lin Rongchen nodded, "I understand, otherwise I wouldn't have waited for him to leave before telling you these things."

Since Ji Beicheng wanted to hide it from Ji Beicheng, he naturally couldn't let him know about going to sea, so Shen Bi didn't go back to Fuzhou, but boarded a boat going to sea in Zhoushan.

Although this cargo ship was not as majestic as the previous "Chang'an", Shen Bi didn't come to enjoy the sea view.How is the food on the boat, what is the environment is not what he cares about.This matter involved Shen Qiuhong, he didn't want anyone to know about it, so he didn't even bring an accompanying guard with him.With only a burden on his back, he pretended to be a frail scholar and boarded the boat.

This time it landed on Dongzhou Island smoothly.On his first day on the island, he met Lin Zhengqing at the pier, which made him very pleasantly surprised.

The last time I saw Lin Zhengqing, although he had a dark complexion, he was in good shape.Now he is not only haggard and dark, but also unkempt and unkempt, as if he is a different person.If he hadn't recognized Shen Bi, Shen Bi wouldn't have dared to recognize him even if his eyes met.

At this time, Lin Zhengqing was holding the wooden box in his arms, and stopped Shen Bi.Shen Bi was about to get angry, but he heard him say in surprise: "A Bi! Why are you here! Just wait for me!"

Shen Bi came back to his senses, he had already loaded the wooden box onto the boat, went down to pay his wages, pulled Shen Bi and said, "Go, uncle invites you to drink!"

The two found a tavern on the street and sat down.Lin Zhengqing ordered a jug of wine, half a catty of beef, and a small dish of peanuts.

Seeing his ragged clothes, Shen Bi couldn't bear it, "Uncle Lin, why did you stay here?"

Lin Zhengqing wiped the wine stains from the corner of his mouth, and sighed, "I wanted to go to Dongying, but unfortunately when I got here, I ran out of money, so I can only be a porter, earn some money first!"

"To Japan?" Shen Bi was stunned, "Are you looking for my father?"

Lin Zhengqing nodded, "What about you? Did you come to look for him too?"

"Well. I want to know why he didn't go back?" He felt that he didn't need to tell Lin Zhengqing about those things in the court, so let him think that he was just looking for relatives! "Does Uncle Lin really think my father is in Dongying?"

"That's natural. I guess your father must have encountered some difficulties, so he couldn't get away." Lin Zhengqing patted the table and said, "Don't let me find those people who made things difficult for him, otherwise, I will make them return ten times and a hundred times! "

Having trouble?Shen Bi sneered in his heart, maybe he would have forgotten where his roots were when he lingered in Ruanrou Township?

"Abi!" Lin Zhengqing pointed to the largest cargo ship at the pier, "Have you seen that ship? It's the one with the black dragon flag in front! This kind of big ship cannot be driven by human power. If you want to sail, all Borrow the wind. Look at the wind on the sea today! I have inquired, it will drive from Dongzhou Island to Dongying today, we can take it to find your father!"

The Jiaolong's flag fluttered up and down in the sea breeze, making Shen Bi think of that evil dragon underwater.He shivered for no reason, "How do we go up?"

Lin Zhengqing said: "They are recruiting boatmen. It is not difficult for us to get on the boat. It's just that you are so delicate and tender, you will inevitably be suspected."

Shen Bi bent down and touched the black soil on the ground, and rubbed it on his face, "How about this?"

Lin Zhengqing saw that his left cheek was black as a palm, and nodded repeatedly, "This is even better!"

Regrettably, the two were separated by the steward when they boarded the boat. One was responsible for cleaning the cabin, and the other was responsible for retracting and deploying the sails. Of course, they were not the only ones doing these things.

The steward may feel that Shen Bi's body is too weak to do anything else, so he is only asked to do hygiene.

Jiaolong has a high head and tail, and has four floors in the middle.If anyone wants to take the Jiaolong ship, they must make an appointment in advance, in addition to being innocent and able to afford the money. Of course, these people are distinguished guests when they board the ship, and they will be arranged to live on the third floor.

As for the fourth floor, Shen Bi stayed on the ship for two days and hadn't been there yet.The steward has mentioned to him many times, never go up to the fourth floor, or you will be at your own risk.

Shen Bi was well aware of the purpose of his trip, and he had no curiosity at all about things that had nothing to do with Shen Qiuhong. Although he cleaned the stairs every day, he never thought of going up to take a look.Until one day, he heard a very faint sigh from upstairs.

Shen Bi raised his head, and when he went up from the stairs, he saw a smear of snow-white. The man was wearing a crimson belt around his waist, and it was flying in the wind at this moment.

Judging by his figure, he should be a man.From Shen Bi's direction, at most he could only see the man's waist.

Shen Bi didn't want to cause trouble, so she hurriedly packed her things, and went downstairs lightly.

It was only at night that he could relax and talk to Lin Zhengqing on the deck.

Tonight, the bright moon is in the sky, covering the vast and boundless sea, and it looks like thousands of pieces of silver.

The sea was silent, and the Jiaolong was slowly moving forward in the flawless moonlight, making Shen Bi wonder what was the day and night for a moment.

Lin Zhengqing drank some wine and was currently dozing off against the mast.

Shen Bi leaned against the side of the boat, closed her eyes and enjoyed the sea breeze.Xu is a general's intuition, which makes him a little uneasy - his surroundings seem to be violated.

Shen Bi looked sideways, and sure enough, he saw a person two feet away from him.

The man was completely white, reflecting the light clearly under the moonlight.The red belt around his waist showed a strange dark brown at the moment.Even at night, he still wears a hood to cover his entire face.The white gauze from the brim of the hat hung down to her chest, fluttering slowly in the wind.

As if feeling that someone was looking at him, that person turned his head and also looked at Shen Bi.

Shen Bi withdrew his gaze, and was about to go back to wash and sleep, but he heard the man say: "Young master, why are you looking at me?"

"Sorry, I was curious for a while." Shen Bi apologized, and hurried back to the room.

The moment he closed the door, he heard the passers-by whispering anxiously, "Oh, where did His Royal Highness go?"
