Nativity

Chapter 82
The young man in white clothes had very good youth skills, and in a blink of an eye he carried Jiang Hui to a small boat on the bank of the river. This small boat should have been arranged by the young man in white clothes long ago.Because there was a boatman on the boat who was waiting for him. Seeing the boy in white, he hurriedly pulled the boat to the shore, and called the boy in white "Thirteenth Prince".

The thirteenth son put Jiang Hui down, Jiang Hui looked at the thirteenth son tearfully, and begged, "Big brother, please save my father!"

"Your father is dead, there is no way to save it. You should obediently obey your father's advice and go to Youzhou Hou!" The thirteenth son replied.

wow wow...

Jiang Hui cried even harder. "You lied, my father is not dead!"

Jiang Hui insisted on going back to find her father, but the thirteenth son shook her helplessly, and ordered the boatman to take the boat straight up the river.The thirteenth son seemed to be tired of Jiang Hui's crying, so he went into the cabin to lie down and rest, and let Jiang Hui cry as much as he wanted.

This river is very long, the river goes straight down to the south is the "South Country", and the river goes straight up to the north is the "North Country".Although the "South Country" was stolen by the elder Mu Wu by exchanging beams for pillars and renamed "Jiangguo", the people still did not agree with "Jiangguo".Therefore, people often call the 'Jiangguo' as 'Southern Xinjiang'.It means that 'south' comes first and 'jiang' follows, 'jianguo' cannot replace 'southern country'.

Jiang Hui cried for a long time, tired, she also lay down in the cabin to rest, and fell asleep soon.Jiang Hui seemed to have not slept for a long time, and she slept until the next morning before waking up.When she dimly opened her eyes, she found that the handsome thirteenth son was already on board.

Jiang Hui asked the boatman curiously: "Old man, where is the big brother?"

"Oh! My son has already left."

"Let's go, but the boat hasn't docked yet? Could it be that your son swam away?"

"Hehe, my young master is leaving on another boat." The boatman replied with a smile while supporting the boat.

"Old man, are you going to send me to Youzhou City?" Jiang Hui asked again.

"Young Master has ordered you to be sent to Youzhou Mansion."

"But because you want to go to Youzhou City by boat?" Jiang Hui asked the boatman puzzled.

"Youzhou City is located at the border between the northern part of the Southern Kingdom and the Northern Kingdom. It will be faster and safer for the thirteenth son to go to Youzhou City by water." The boatman replied with a smile.

Jiang Hui touched her head and asked curiously: "Old man, who are you and why did you save me?"

The boatman hesitated for a while before replying: "We are people in the rivers and lakes, and we saved you this time to repay your kindness."

Pay back?

Jiang Hui was curious and wanted to ask more questions, but the boatman didn't answer.She had no choice but to stop asking, and immediately checked whether the jade seal in the treasure box was still there.

Jiang Hui opened the treasure box carefully, and the crystal clear jade seal was still there, so Jiang Hui felt relieved.Jiang Hui picked up a piece of old cloth on the boat to wrap the treasure box, and held it tightly in her arms.

The surface of the river is very calm, but there are still very few boats on the river. The boats are slowly moving forward on the river. There are mountains and mountains on both sides of the river bank, and there are flocks of birds and wild flowers.Jiang Hui, who was imprisoned with her father since she was a child, was fascinated by the scenery of the river bank. This was the first time she saw such a beautiful picture scroll.

Soon the ships entered the border between Beiguo and Youzhou City. At this time, there were more ships on the river, and there were still many merchants on the banks of the river.Although there are frequent wars in Youzhou City, it is still very prosperous.

Jiang Hui saw the thirteenth son standing on the shore with the ten Jianghu people dressed as ordinary people.Jiang Hui excitedly waved to Thirteenth Duke: "Brother, where have you been? Have you seen my father?"

The thirteenth son did not answer, but Shen Shou pulled Jiang Hui ashore, and Jiang Hui followed the thirteenth son to the gate of Youzhou City.

Today, the gates of Youzhou City are closed for unknown reasons, and the walls are covered with guards and archers.

The defense of Youzhou City exceeded the expectations of the Thirteenth Young Master. The Thirteenth Young Master murmured: "The defense of Youzhou City has become stricter. Could it be that there is another big battle coming soon?"

People gathered outside the city gate, some of them were panicking, some were clamoring.

"Open the city gate, quickly open the city gate and let us in..."

"It looks like we can't enter the city gate today, let's go back to the teahouse!" The thirteenth son said to the ten Jianghu people.

Jiang Hui followed the thirteenth son to a small teahouse outside the city gate. The owner of the teahouse was an old man with white hair and a gray beard. He was a bit older, but his hands and feet were very agile.

When the owner of the teahouse saw the thirteenth son and others coming, he cheerfully asked, "Where are the guest officials from?"

"Jiangnan, as usual, I want a pot of high-quality tea and a room to rest." The thirteenth son said.

"Okay!" The owner of the teahouse enthusiastically led the Thirteenth Young Master into the secret room. It seemed that the owner of the teahouse was also a member of the Thirteenth Young Master.

After the thirteenth son entered the secret room of the teahouse, he asked the owner of the teahouse about the recent situation in Youzhou City.

The owner of the teahouse told the thirteenth son that the situation in Youzhou City is not very good recently, and the military equipment inside and outside the city is getting more and more serious, from checking one by one to enter the city, to simply closing the city gate to prevent anyone from entering the city.

After hearing this, the Thirteenth Duke asked again: "Did any major event happen in Youzhou City?"

The owner of the teahouse said: "A few days ago when Youzhou Hou was out of the city, he was suddenly assassinated by an assassin. The exact extent of his injuries has not been found out yet. Since then, Youzhou Hou has never left the city, and he ordered the city gates to be closed and no one can be released. People come and go.

"It turned out to be like this. It seems that the Emperor Jiang came to covertly if he couldn't attack Youzhou City. Did the assassin catch him?" The thirteenth son asked the teahouse owner again.

"Caught it, it turned out to be a child."

"What? It's a child!" Shocking everyone, Emperor Jiang was so mad that he trained a child to be a killer.

"It seems that it is really difficult to enter the city now." The thirteenth son looked at Jiang Hui and murmured.

"I must go to the city, big brother must help Huier."

Jiang Hui didn't know what the jade seal was for, but her father entrusted her to hand over the jade seal to the Marquis of Youzhou on his deathbed, and she had to do it.

"Don't worry, we Jianghu people talk about 'righteousness', we won't ignore you and entrust you to the Marquis of Youzhou." The thirteenth son replied, patting his chest.

"Big brother is so kind!" Jiang Hui smiled sweetly at the thirteenth son.

The thirteenth son blushed on both sides, looking a little embarrassed.

Unable to enter the city, Jiang Hui could only stay in the secret room of the teahouse, and the thirteenth son also stayed in the secret room of the teahouse waiting to rest.

"Big brother, you haven't told me what happened to my father?" Jiang Hui couldn't believe that her father was really dead, so she asked the thirteenth son again.

"Didn't I tell you earlier? Your father is really dead. You also saw it at the time. Can the long sword stab the heart and live?"

Woo hoo!Daddy...

This time Jiang Hui really believed that her father was dead!
"Shh! Don't cry, it's not good if people see you and think I'm bullying you!" The thirteenth son persuaded Jiang Hui who was crying.

"Big brother, I have no relatives. Are all my relatives dead?"

The thirteenth prince looked at the poor Jiang Hui, and couldn't help sighing: Now there are wars and wars everywhere, not only your whole family is dead, but many people are the same.

"Then, big brother's family is also dead?"

bah bah bah!
"How is my family? If you talk nonsense again, I will ignore you."

"No, big brother!" Jiang Hui said in fear.

"Hey! Forget it. It turned out to be a favor, so of course we have to do what we say."

"Thank you?"

"It's a repayment. My Jiang family received a great favor from Prime Minister Jiang ten years ago. Now that Prime Minister Jiang is in trouble, our Jiang family must of course repay it. This is what people in the Jianghu call 'righteousness'."

"Hui'er doesn't understand, who are people in Jianghu?" Jiang Hui asked in a childish voice.

Forehead!
The thirteenth son couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat: It seems that this son is playing the piano to a cow, not a 'cow', but a 'pig', and he is playing the piano to a pig.
