At noon the next day, a guard suddenly rushed over and asked Hua Rong and her sister to follow him onto the boat.
The guard's name was Xu Caizhi, Hua Rong had seen him before, he was one of the two guards from the Gongzi Zhao. Xu Caizhi said: Because of an emergency, the ship is about to depart, Gongzi Zhao wants you all to travel together.
Hua Rong and the teenager were surprised, but they immediately bade farewell to Jing Xue's family and followed him onto the boat.
On the ship, the hold of the ship was tightly shut. Outside the door stood a row of heavily guarded guards, as if discussing something important.
Only at this moment did he finally relax. Seeing the snow white waves rolling on the surface of the sea, the blue sky, and the occasional sea bird fly by, it was vast and profound. He let out a long breath, feeling a sense of relaxation that he had never felt before.
"Yeah. But I don't want to go back to the surface. "
The youth knew what she was thinking and comforted her, "Elder sister, I will take care of you in the future. My mother will also like you."
Hua Rong sighed to herself. After being separated for such a long time, she did not know whether his mother was still alive or not, but seeing him so full of joy, she could not bear to say such cruel words to a child.
In the evening, the siblings came down from the second floor of the large ship, but they saw that the cabin had already opened. In the middle of the open deck, there was a table of Desk s, and Gongzi Zhao was writing something down.
The brother and sister duo walked over and watched from afar. After a long while, Gongzi Zhao suddenly raised his head: "Come over."
The two of them walked over, and on the paper, Hua Rong saw a poem:
The tallest warrior was a dragon elephant, while the eldest of the Grass Hall was not a grizzly.
No bad kosher rice, see only white head fishing silk.
Mandarin duck love water mirror all day long, Han night wind wither clothes.
Open the old Zen to tea, and also find the dense bamboo in the middle
Her heart was alarmed. This poem was not an exceptional work, but it had an extremely imposing aura. It was completely not the tone of an ordinary person. Looking at that paper again, it was truly strange.
Seeing her gaze, Gongzi Zhao suddenly became interested. "Miss, can you read too?"
"I know a few of them."
Gongzi Zhao laughed: "Miss, why don't you write a few words for me to see."
She immediately said in a solemn voice, "I don't dare to make a fool of myself."
However, the Gongzi Zhao stood up without any explanation and gave her the seat, "Miss, you don't have to be so modest."
Hua Rong could no longer refuse and sat down, earnestly writing a few words.
The ink had not dried yet, but when Gongzi Zhao picked it up to take a look, he was very surprised. He did not know that a woman could write such a beautiful calligraphy.
"Good, good, good …"
He repeated the word "good" a few times, "Miss, can you give me this Mo Bao?"
"Thank you, young master, for your kindness. I am truly ashamed …"
The Gongzi Zhao laughed and hid it himself, telling Xu Caizhi who was behind him, "Keep the words carefully, take them back."
"Yes."
Along the way, they talked about the local and local customs and practices. The Gongzi Zhao saw that Hua Rong was extremely sharp and quickly explained everything he saw and heard, she looked extremely timid, as though he was extremely weak, but his speech and actions were very decisive.
The strange feeling in his heart was even more intense. This woman seemed to have two extreme personalities, and then, these two factors combined perfectly. He wondered what she would do if she were a man.
His sister was not ordinary either, he realized. She had gone on a training spree with the pirates, but she wasn't affected by any bad habits. She was pure in nature and was very loyal and bold. She gave off an impression of being able to support the heavens and earth at such a young age.
He wanted to nurture the youth, so he asked, "Do you want to learn some abilities?"
The youth said happily, "Learn what?"
"I have a friend who has outstanding martial arts and is proficient in military tactics. You can acknowledge him as your master."
The Sisters and Sisters looked at each other, and Hua Rong immediately sensed that perhaps this kind of opportunity could change the fate of the youth. Otherwise, when she returned to the countryside, he would be an ignorant farmer that would never be able to rise again.
Seeing that his sister nodded in agreement, the youth immediately said: "Thank you, Gongzi Zhao. That would be great. "
Hua Rong asked him: "Where does that senior live?"
Gongzi Zhao smiled slightly: "It's not far from the capital. You will know once you arrive."
The big ship went ashore and took the land route instead.
The imperial court was disorderly, and the Jinguo and the Liaoning had been harassing each other for many years. For convenience sake, Hua Rong took the initiative to change into men's clothing.
This way, his speed would be much faster.
When they were about 150 miles from the capital, they stopped in front of a large courtyard.
The manor was neat and tidy, facing the lake and leaning against a mountain peak. Thousands of locust tree willow trees in the dense forest, three nowhere to entertain guests in the hall. Further on, at the open corner, cattle and sheep were scattered all over the floor, and geese and ducks were flocking together on the large market. Some of the farmers came and went with courtesy, unlike the starving people of the outside world.
Hua Rong thought, in this world, who would be the owner of such a good place?
Xu Caizhi spoke a few words in a low voice, and the manor guest immediately went in to report.
Hua Rong was overwhelmed with shock. Although she had long guessed that the Gongzi Zhao's identity was extraordinary, she did not expect that he was actually the "Ninth Prince" of the Imperial Palace. Now that he was in Zhaojiaji, it was no wonder he called himself "Gongzi Zhao."
Ninth Prince personally held the old man up, and said very politely, "General Nang, there is no need to be so courteous, please stand quickly …"
Hearing him call him "General Seedling", Hua Rong thought, could this old man be the famous master of the Slightly common of old species' scriptures? He could be said to be one of the most famous generals of the dynasty. His character was upright and his character was hot. While he was escaping, she had heard a lot of things about him, and said that he was the only one who could resist Liao today.
Everyone greeted, and General Xu thought that they were all followers of the Ninth Prince, and invited them in.
Hua Rong was dressed in men's attire, and seeing that Ninth Prince did not avoid him when she revealed hheridentity, she pondered for a moment, then followed the group into the main hall, where the branch host sat. Hua Rong and his sister only stood beside Ninth Prince.
After serving the tea, General Wen said with a smile, "Your highness, you have come today at a coincidental moment. end has a few people who are used to causing trouble, and they are here to compete in skills. Your highness's martial arts are outstanding. Can you teach them a thing or two? "
Ninth Prince was very interested and immediately said: "This king is very interested, please come up and compete."
At the command of General Wu, a few men waiting outside came in, the first few were wearing tight clothes and dragging their batons; the second man, on the other hand, looked like an officer. He wore a ten thousand word headscarf, a parrot green battle robe, a green sash embroidered with two black crows, and a pair of dried yellow boots made from the skin of an eagle. His face was round and wide, and he was at least ten feet long.
The Ninth Prince cheered, "What a man."
General Wu said with a smile: "This is the Rutty's jurisdiction of the Southern Prefecture. Why haven't you seen him yet?"
The man immediately bowed: "Greetings Ninth Prince. My surname is Lu, and my name is Lu."
Ninth Prince was very satisfied with him, he nodded his head: "Lu Da, no need to be so courteous, let's see your performance today."
"Thank you, Ninth Prince."
After a round of battle, the sky and earth had darkened, and the outcome was decided after a short while, it was actually Lu Da who had won by himself. The Ninth Prince was overjoyed and immediately gave him a hundred taels of gold.
Seeing that he was such a hero, the young man could not help but be overjoyed, and quietly asked Hua Rong: "Elder sister, does Ninth Prince want me to take him as my master?"
Before Hua Rong could reply, she heard Ninth Prince say, "General Xu, we have made an uninvited guest today. Little Wang had a presumptuous request …"
"Your Highness, please speak your mind."
"This little brother is called Yue Pengju, I see that he has some intelligence, please take him in as your disciple, General."
The youth was quick-witted. Before General Xian could reply, he had already knelt down. "Disciple greets Master …"
General Wu laughed as he reached out to pick him up and touched his neck. He was overjoyed to see the young man's amazing physique. "Fine, fine, fine. I'll accept it …"
Seeing Lu Da, the subordinate of General Xu, was already so powerful, the general did not know how astonishing his martial arts were. Thinking about it, she made an extremely bold decision, and immediately prostrated himself on the ground: "Ninth Prince, I hope you can forgive me. "I also want to take on a general as my master …"
Ninth Prince was surprised, he muttered to himself for a moment, then nodded his head: "General Wu, what do you think?"
The general was a shrewd and shrewd man after all. At first, he hadn't paid much attention to him, but now that he looked closely at this thin youth, he could tell that he was a woman. This dynasty had Yangmen female generals, Mu Guiying, the commander, loud, heroic, the world praise. Therefore, the fact that a woman trained in martial arts wasn't an earth-shattering thing. General Wu had seen a lot of people. He saw the determination in the woman's eyes.
Furthermore, it was Ninth Prince who had entrusted him with this task. He laughed loudly and said, "Good, good, good. You must endure the hardships of practicing martial arts. "
Hua Rong prostrated herself once again, and only after that did she raise her head, and said respectfully: "No matter what suffering, I will take it all, thank you master."
She had suffered countless hardships in the middle of her journey and had fallen into the hands of the King Qin, even though she had to endure torture, she was not able to resist at all. Now, she actually had a chance to learn something, Hua Rong was so excited that her heart was about to jump out of her chest, she could only silently get up and stand by the Ninth Prince's side, grateful for his assistance.
Again and again he told himself: "No matter how difficult it is, I must learn to be truly capable. Only then can I truly have a day of revenge."
That night, General Xu gave a banquet to Ninth Prince and the others, the siblings Hua Rong and Hua Rong were accompanying last. She observed carefully. Be it on the road or at the farm, the Ninth Prince ate and drank with the others. She had a sense of camaraderie and was very polite.
After the meal, General Hua and Ninth Prince had a secret conversation. Hua Rong was arranged to a separate courtyard, inside it was a little girl, Shui'er, who attended to her daily life. Yue Pengju, on the other hand, followed the Rutty's jurisdiction, was arranged to train in the martial arts together with a group of disciples from different families.
The morning of the second day, Ninth Prince and the rest began their journey back to the capital.
