I was a famous teacher in ancient times

Chapter 590 Bloodstain

When Yang Xi and his wife's article was published in the Jiaozhou newspaper, the couple had successfully boarded the passenger ship. According to the itinerary, they would travel by water for two days and then by land for four days, and they would reach Jingzhou.

The team traveled by water, and the couple had good luck, because the wind was smooth and the fleet was traveling very fast.

Yang Xi stood on the deck and looked at the river bank. After a moment of contemplation, "Don't you think it's too quiet?"

Zhou Yu pointed at the railing of the boat with his fingertips, "It's indeed too quiet."

Ever since they boarded the boat, the husband and wife have enjoyed the scenery on the deck. Not to mention, they haven’t seen a single fishing boat along the way, nor have they seen fishermen on the river bank.

The little horse stood not far away, he could hear the conversation of the two gentlemen, his ears moved, his eyes looked deeply at the tall aquatic plants on the river bank.

Yang Xi gathered the cloak on his body, "It seems that it's a sleepless night again."

Zhou Yu felt that the wind was getting stronger, "Let's go back to the cabin to rest."

"Ah."

The husband and wife turned to look at the Li family brothers who were talking in the distance. The faces of the two brothers were not good-looking, especially Mr. Li's expression was extremely serious.

The husband and wife looked at each other, and they could guess the content of the conversation between the two brothers. Mr. Li San had too many feelings along the way.

The Li family brothers also paid attention to the two gentlemen, and they watched the two gentlemen go back to the cabin.

Li Yongyan, the eldest son of Li, avoided the wind, and his voice was very low, "So your heart fell to Yang Xixuan?"

Li Sangong, Li Yonghe, "Brother, I'm just analyzing calmly."

Li Yongyan's eyes were complicated. It was because he knew his younger brother that he was extremely uncomfortable. His younger brother could always put aside his stand and analyze calmly. His voice was extremely dry, "The Li family really has no chance of winning?"

Li Yonghe shook his head, "No, brother, you really should visit the two states of Ruide."

What responded was Li Yongyan's long silence, neither of the two brothers spoke again, only the sound of wind and water flowing in their ears.

Meanwhile, Yang Xi and his wife were already sitting by the window making tea and playing chess. The two kept secret letters with Xixuan. For Zhou Yu who edited the codebook, he didn’t need to bring the codebook to decipher the secret letter. Several sets of codebooks He knows it all by heart.

Don't think that couples don't need well-informed news when they go to Jingzhou to propose marriage. They need to judge the Li family's reaction based on the major events that happened, so as to give the most accurate response.

While playing chess, Zhou Yu talked about the situation in the north, "Wang Huo stands still, it seems that he is going to clear up internal troubles first."

Yang Xi held the chess piece in his hand, "He has a lot of internal troubles, and the families promoted by Emperor Jiang are in danger."

Zhou Yu raised his head and saw his daughter-in-law staring at the chessboard seriously, "How many families do you mean Wang Huo will attack?"

"If Wang Huo still has a fig leaf, Wang Huo needs good ministers to stabilize the court. Now Wang Huo just wants to cut the mess quickly. It cannot be said that all these families are in danger. At least one family will be killed as an example."

Wang Huo wants to use this to warn the good ministers who are promoted that he is the one who can control life and death, because Wang Huo is afraid, he is afraid that these families will secretly join the Zhang family.

Zhou Yu knew that there were several families in the capital, Xixuan, who had been thinking about it all the time, "This is going to be difficult."

It is not easy for Ye Shun to lurk for many years. Even if he can use some power in the capital, it is too difficult for Ye Shun to save a family.

Indeed, as the husband and wife said, Ye Shun couldn't eat well in the past two days and was worried. The lord regards it as faith, the lord takes a fancy to the Shen family, but he can't save the Shen family.

Qi San has been inquiring about the news for the past few days. The sky above the capital city is clear and clear, but the sunset glow is red like blood. The people in the city are panic-stricken, and they always feel that it is a bad warning.

Qi San brought back bad news, "Uncle, the Shen family's verdict has come down."

Ye Shun opened his eyes, "The Shen family really took refuge with the Zhang family in Nanzhou?"

Qi San shook his head, "It's unknown, but the crime is indeed collaborating with the enemy. All the male heirs of the Shen family over the age of ten will be beheaded, and the younger male heirs will be slaves and female relatives."

Geng Ningxi opened her mouth, but couldn't even utter the last syllable. She could guess one or two things that Brother Qi didn't explain clearly. The worst thing was that she was sent to the barracks.

Ye Shun's voice was hoarse, and he opened his mouth, "Aside from us, is there anyone else who works for the Shen family?"

Qi San shook his head ironically, "Not really."

Ye Shun lowered his eyes, he had to wait for the power of the Zhang family, whether the Shen family wanted to commit a crime, or really took refuge in the Zhang family, he would soon come to a conclusion.

The courtyard was too silent, and Geng Ningxi couldn't help but ask, "Uncle, can you really not save the Shen family's female family?"

Ye Shun knew that the female members of the Shen family were held incommunicado the day before yesterday, "Look again."

Who knows if the Shen family is the bait introduced by Wang Huo? Wang Huo's investigation of the Zhang family's power in the capital has been fruitless.

As the night gradually approached, the whole street rang out the cries of children, because of hunger, no matter how much water they drank in their stomachs, it was useless.

In the river, the boats continued to move forward, the boats were quiet, only the sound of the water flow could be heard, several large boats lit torches, and the people brought by Mr. Li and the pony stared at the water surface vigilantly.

Yang Xi and his wife put together their clothes to rest, and they closed their eyes to rest their minds. Because of the pony, the husband and wife were very at ease.

In the middle of the night, several small boats appeared on both sides of the dark river, and the water bandits who grew up by the river dived into the bottom of the water. These people wanted to carve through the cabin.

The sound of running water can cover up the sound, but for the pony with amazing hearing, the pony has already signaled the archer to shoot arrows at the bottom of the boat, and the torches illuminate the river surface, and blood stains appeared in the river after a while.

The little horse raised his hand to signal the archer to continue, and when Mr. Li heard the sound, he had already sent soldiers with good water skills down the river.

Yang Xi and his wife listened to Cheng Jin's report and sat up. They waited for the news, but unfortunately it was bad news. The water bandits were desperadoes.

Xiao Ma cursed lowly, the water bandits had already surrounded the boat, and the night could hide everything, he couldn't see how many water bandits there were, so he could only listen with his ears, this is his unknown skill.

Li Yongyan's expression turned ugly, "Send someone to protect the boatman who is repairing the ship."

This was not the worst, soon a large ship crashed into the ship where Yang Xi and his wife were in, the ship that had been almost repaired shook violently, and was almost knocked over.

Yang Xi and his wife have some martial arts foundation, and the two reacted quickly, so they protected themselves from injury.

Zhou Yu said with a sullen face, "It seems that we have made complete preparations for this assassination, and even chose a burial place for our husband and wife."

Yang Xi twitched the corner of his mouth, "I don't want to be eaten by fish after I die."

"Daughter-in-law, now is not the time to be humorous."

Yang Xi rolled his eyes, it was obviously Zhou Yu who started it first.
