Assassin A

After three days of sailing, the boat entered the border of the southern region.

In the past few days, Shiwu felt that he had become a foodie.He Yuntian gave full play to the temperament of Yuncheng people who love to eat and know how to eat, and brought the delicious flavors along the way on board to entertain everyone to taste, not to mention, he also changed the way to prepare the river fresh, fruits and vegetables, and snacks.

Walking into any room, there must be a box of eight immortals consisting of four colors of dried fruit and four colors of candied fruit on the table, surrounded by a round plate in the middle of a stack of jerky in honey sauce.

Fifteen didn't like these things at all, mainly because he was short-sighted and the money in his purse was limited.Moreover, when I was working in the past, I either squatted on the beam of the house and gnawed dry food that was so dry that it was rustling, or I huddled in a corner and starved.

Picking up a piece of jerky and stuffing it into his mouth, he wiped his fingers on his trousers, picked up a chess piece and said, "Crack!"

"Oh, you should be here!" Pu Shao stood beside him and pointed angrily.

"Watching chess without saying a word is a true gentleman."

"If I become a gentleman, you will lose to the prince!"

Rong Min waved his fan and smiled slightly: "It's okay for the two of you to discuss it together, and it doesn't matter if there is one more person."

On the eighth day of the lunar new year, he pushed the door silently and entered, and said gloomyly: "Pu Shao, shouldn't you be on guard at this hour?"

Shiwu and the head of the guards turned their heads to look at him at the same time, and saw that the brother's hairstyle was very ecstatic, as if being swirled by a tornado.It used to be neatly combed, but now it is all kinds of hairy and messy.

Pu Shao bowed to the prince and said, "Your subordinate will leave." After tidying up his collar and cuffs, Shi Shiran went away with a long sword in his hand.

Rong Min held a piece of dried meat between two fingers and said to Shiwu, "Open your mouth~"

Fifteen joyfully obeyed the order.

Chu Ba calmly followed a lot of dried fruit and jerky from the table and retreated.Walking to the cabin door, he ate while watching Pu Shao grinning grinningly as he was blown by the strong wind on the river.

On the eighth day, I smiled silently.

In addition to playing chess, there was Rong Min on board who likes to be lively and He Yuntian who is afraid of chaos, playing dominoes has become a major event for everyone.

Mr. Cai and others have read a lot of poetry and books, and they are somewhat disgusted with gambling.But the prince took the lead, and it was a small gamble for fun, and everyone lost a lot at every turn, and the prince returned the money back to the bottom of the bag or changed the way, so they let them play and didn't say anything more.

On the eighth day of the eighth day, he was instructed by the first day of the new year to quickly come to the South Region to seek refuge in the fifteenth day, and he brought Mr. Li's letterhead with him. He was in a hurry when he left, and he had just entered the camp and had no savings, so he just stood aside and watched the fun.

Fifteen saw his covetousness and eagerness to try, so he secretly pulled him aside and handed him a piece of silver: "You play a few games first, and pay attention to it. Ah Hai is very good at throwing dice, and there are five or six tricks. Different points. You can figure out his way, then you can..." So and so, so and so.

Rong Min fought with He Yuntian a few times and ended in a tie. At this time, he let the people below play freely, and he deliberately avoided them to avoid restraint.

Seeing that Fifteen made Chuba serve the table, he simply asked him to come and go to the deck to get some air together.

The weather is fine today.In early autumn, there is no cloud in the sky, and although the sun is bright, it is not as hot as summer.

"Ten miles ahead, you can see the canal dug by Yushu County on the southern side, directly connected to the Afu River, and our cargo ships from the southern region will go from here in the future."

Fifteen looked into the distance along the direction pointed by King Qingnan, "I don't know how lively the Afu River will be in the future? Cargo ships coming and going day and night, transporting rice, grain and tea, all kinds of delicious food and specialties in the Southern Region Ship it to the north to sell."

Rong Min smiled coldly: "That's right, so those people in the capital will spend all their time thinking about me."

Fifteen thought for a while, and said sincerely, "My lord, this subordinate will protect you."

"I know."

What Rong Min was thinking about was the vague letter from the second prince.

Digging canals is a major event for the country, a good thing for the people, and a lucrative job for officials.Liu Taifu's party has always held the canal section tightly in its hands. Song Henian, who died before, and Fan Bing, who was later sent to Fengzhou, are all members of the Liu party.

Why did Yushu County suddenly replace the second prince?Moreover, Fan Bing was vaguely mentioned in the letter... This person is Liu Shimian's disciple, has he been subdued by the Second Prince?

Or... Li Zan?

"Fifteen, Xuanji Ying is no longer here, I want to ask you a few things, would you like to tell me?"

"Okay! Please tell me, my lord."

"Have you contacted Fan Bing, a doctor from the Ministry of Industry?"

Fifteen nodded: "I know. During the Chinese New Year last year, Mr. Li ordered me to arrest him and take him to the palace in the middle of the night, but I don't know what happened afterwards."

really!

Rong Min's doubts dissipated a lot, and he took Shiwu's hand and rubbed it: "Have you ever been to the northern border? Have you seen King Zhubei?"

More than just been there!That crappy place in northern Xinjiang, where rabbits don't shit and birds don't lay eggs, is really a trap.

It is covered with snow for three months in a year, and it is also covered with a thin quilt in the midsummer night.In winter, it's either radish or cabbage. In summer, the mountain scenery is very good, and it's not too hot, it's cool and comfortable.

Rong Min was fascinated listening to Fifteen's description of the lofty mountains in northern Xinjiang, those delicacies, wild birds, wild fruits...

"You've been in the mountains?"

"Yes. There is a great general in the Liu Kingdom named Su Lang, who is known as the God of War. King Zhubei was almost defeated by him several times. This man is very good at leading cavalry, and his tactics are unpredictable. All kinds of outflanking and surprise attacks made Bei The frontier army was exhausted. I was ordered to investigate the enemy camp, but those Ryukyu people were very weird. They only ate dry food and dried meat, and did not make campfires or pitch tents. They often marched at night, and everyone carried a one-and-a-half-foot quilt package on their backs. Even the supplies are collected at the same time, and if they cannot be collected, they will be robbed."

Rong Min has never been in contact with actual combat, and the military books he read when he was young were only on paper, so he was very curious to hear this.

So Fifteen began to talk eloquently.

This fast-moving mixed formation of cavalry and infantry is especially suitable for ambush raids.Use the cavalry to lead the battle to attract the opponent, and the infantry to outflank and build fortifications to dig traps and so on.

"I've heard Lord Li mention before that the king of Northern Xinjiang hates this Su Lang so much, but he has no choice but to use soldiers like a god, and his tactics are ever-changing. When King Zhubei met him, he would beat them, drag them, and bully them. The supply of Ryukyu is limited."

It turned out to be the case.

Rong Min sneered in his heart, nine out of ten it was because the military rations of the imperial court couldn't handle it, and they needed to divert rations from the south to the north to support that idiot King Zhubei to continue to torture the people of the Liu Kingdom.

Did you remember his usefulness in the Southern Region when the war was tense?

He looked up and saw that he had entered Yushu County, "Look! That's the earth excavated from the canal."

Fifteen raised his hand to block the sun and looked into the distance, and sure enough, he saw high piles of earthwork on the west bank of the Afu River, as well as faint figures of busy craftsmen.

Suddenly there was heat in his ears, and it was Rong Min who came over and said, "Li Zan will definitely arrange errands for you in the near future, but there will be no Xuanji camp after the big things are done. When the canal opens, the southern region will be more prosperous and stable. You, Would you like to stay with me forever?"

Fifteen felt her heart beating fast.

King Qingnan made him very puzzled.He can be sure that he will live comfortably with this master, and the prince really treats him well in his heart, there is no doubt about it.

But every time he was with the prince, he always violated the rules unconsciously.

He has been taught obedience and loyalty since he was a child, and Master Li will not hesitate to let him go to the sword mountain after he enters the camp.But when he was with King Qingnan, he would occasionally retort and be mischievous.

Fifteen is a person who has been used to being controlled by various systems, but suddenly Rong Min let his temper come, but he was very panicked.It's like being tied up for a long time, and suddenly loosened, but the hands and feet don't know where to put them.

"Subordinate..."

"Ok?"

Fifteen felt his heart beating like a drum.

King Qingnan is very good, although he often makes an inexplicable request.For example, "kiss"... He obeyed, which is nothing.The two princes both raised sons, even if they had never been kissed before, they had seen quite a few.

But Shiwu was really not used to being kissed and kissed, and was licked yesterday.That goosebump feeling...

"If the prince can stop teasing his subordinates in the future, Fifteen is willing to accompany him for the rest of his life."

teasing?

Rong Min raised his eyebrows, "Why did I tease you?" The brat is not enlightened!

Fifteen was silent.

"If I say, I'm happy to have you by my side, and I'm even happier to kiss you, do you still think it's teasing?"

"Yes."

Rong Min really wanted to throw something to express his resentment.

"Fifteen, the situation is like this. If you are willing to follow me steadily, I will take care of all the people who have retired after the Xuanji camp. It is fine to live in the mansion, and I will give the land to those who are willing to buy real estate outside. money."

"My lord, I intend to follow you, as long as you don't tease me."

Scratch the wall! "I'm not teasing!"

"But that's how you keep teasing Mr. Lin."

"Turn him out when we get home tomorrow!"

"My lord, you are pulling away."

"You're not like him."

"..."

It was the first time for Rong Min to meet such a ignorant person at such a young age!I think he is handsome, powerful and rich, whoever posted it here is just this guy!Shameless, "I order you, you must be obedient, do what I tell you to do. From now on, you can kiss if you want, touch if you want, touch whatever you want, do whatever you want. Otherwise, when you go back to the southern region, you and that Get out immediately on the eighth day of the eighth day!"

Fifteen remained silent again, and the atmosphere froze for a while.

Finally, he yelled out what he was holding back in his heart, and King Qingnan felt very comfortable.

That's right, he is a majestic prince, doesn't he just want a guard?Is it possible to take into account his thoughts?

But after a while, I was terrified again.He suddenly wanted to put Shiwu on the bed just now!This... Could it be that he has raised his son for a long time, and he has really cultivated himself to like men?

No, no, no, he just likes to tease Shiwu, to tease him... Really teasing?The kid was right.

Cough lightly: "What are you thinking?"

Shiwu replied quietly: "The subordinate is calculating that the money in his hand is enough for me and Chu Ba to live outside for many years."

Rong Min was so angry that he almost rolled his eyes: "You don't want to take away a penny from me!"

"My lord, it was given to my subordinates by the people of Xizui Building, not the money from the palace."

Rong Min cursed in his heart: He Yuntian, you grandson!If my bodyguard ran away, it was up to you. Without you being so generous and generous with gold, silver and jewels, where would he be going now?

As if he understood his thoughts, Fifteen said again: "My lord, Chu Ba and I will not starve to death even if we have no money. We can go to the mountains to hunt as hunters, and go down the river to fish as fishermen. You forgot, Our hidden weapon technique is not bad."

Cai Ting also thought about going to Yushu County to see the rice fields along the coast and the canal project, and because of the previous seasickness, he didn't dare to play chess with his old friends these days.

The paper fan swayed and stepped onto the deck alone. The prince said to Fifteen with a weeping expression, "I really like you. It was just a moment of anger. Don't sneak away~"

See no evil, hear no evil.

Mr. Cai turned around as chicly as when he came...

"Mr. Cai! Come and tell Fifteen whether this king treats him sincerely."

Assassin A finally saw the penetrating tongue of the so-called literati.

Cai Ting was embarrassed at the beginning, but he quickly settled down. From the first time he pretended to be a tea farmer on the fifteenth day, how much the prince valued him, and then sacrificed his life for the savior. Lie to Yuncheng, how anxious the prince is to tell one by one.

Finally concluded: "The prince treats you as a benefactor, and wants you to stay in the southern region to live a leisurely life without having to run for the Xuanji Camp that no longer exists. This is the master's favor and the master's affection. If you insist on It would be disrespectful to leave."

"Mr. Cai, if the prince asks him to kiss his subordinates as much as he wants, touch them as much as he wants, and do whatever he wants? The subordinates just hope that the prince will stop teasing the subordinates. Is this also disrespectful?"

Cai Ting's beard trembled: "This is the prince joking with you."

Fifteen blinked and looked at Rong Min: "Really?"

Now Rong Min just begs Fifteen not to run away unknowingly in the middle of the night, of course he nodded fiercely: "Yes, this king is joking."

Seeing Shiwu's contented resignation, Rong Min slammed his fist on the railing.

After some consideration, Cai Ting said: "Why should the lord be in such a hurry? Just now, I saw that Shiwu's eyes were quite joking, and I deduced that he was just pretending to be stupid, and the lord must have a lot of weight in his heart. However, in the next Ji reminded the prince once that the Xuanji camp has just been wiped out, and the identity of the fifteenth is yet to be determined, for the sake of the overall situation, the prince should not be like this."

Rong Min frowned: "I don't treat him as badly as you think."

Cai Ting cupped his hands and said, "So, I'm worrying too much."

Rong Min thought for a while and asked again: "Mr. Cai, if I like Shiwu very much, and I don't want to play with him as a prince, I care about him very much, and I really want him to stay by my side forever, what kind of relationship is this?"

Cai Ting cupped his hands again: "This is what I deduced just now."

So...has he really fallen in love with a man?

Rong Min nodded: "If it's unbearable, then it's unbearable. If I like it, I like it."

Chuba folded her arms and stared at Fifteen.

Fifteen said coldly, "What are you looking at? Did you hear everything?"

Chu Ba nodded, "Do you like Wang Ye?"

"do not know."

"He likes you."

"I know."

"Do you have a lot of silver?"

"Have."

"I just lost."

Fifteen took out another handful of money and handed it over: "I'll take it for you to play with."

Chu Ba thought for a while and said: "If the prince is really willing to accept all the people who have retreated from the Xuanji camp, then you should go."

Pu Shao won a lot today, and when he was in high spirits, he suddenly heard the sound of fighting at the stern of the boat, and he immediately charged forward with his long sword in his hands... and then hid.

Dried fruit hidden weapons, candied fruit hidden weapons are flying all over the sky, and occasionally a round watermelon will fly out...

"Bang!" Shen Yufeng, who was lamenting his tragic fate in the cabin, wanted to come out to blow some air, only to be thrown on his back by the watermelon coming from the sky.

"Why is my eyes red? Where is this?"

Pu Shao squatted beside him and stabbed Shen Shaoxia with the hilt of his sword: "Wake up, that's watermelon juice." Xuanjiying's hidden weapon is really amazing!

into the night.

It's the turn of the fifteenth night.He can arrive at the pier early tomorrow morning. When he goes back, Shen Yufeng is expected to be placed in his small courtyard, and Chuba should also live here.

His ears moved slightly, and he heard a series of familiar footsteps.

King Qingnan walked two steps behind him and stopped: "I was joking with you during the day. You are my benefactor, and also my favorite... guard. If there is any disrespect, I hope you don't mind. "

Fifteen turned around and bowed to him: "This subordinate also amused the prince during the day."

Rong Min nodded slightly, and turned to leave.Huh... Mr. Cai's play hard to get is indeed true!But Shiwu's sleeve was suddenly grabbed by Shiwu. Looking back, Shiwu's face was very close in the night.

When the lips touched, Rong Min was captured by the softness.Unfortunately, too short.

"My lord, it's time to rest."

Seeing King Qingnan leave with unsteady breath, Shiwu smiled quietly.

The eighth day of the lunar new year is right, just kiss and kiss, and a piece of meat is indispensable.As long as the King of Qingnan can really accept all the people who have retreated from the Xuanji Camp, the work will be worthwhile.

Assassin A proudly stood at the bow of the boat, posing as a big horse with a golden knife.In fact, it feels good to kiss the prince.
