Chapter 197
"I got it!" Abu asked again suddenly, turning his smart eyes, "Bei Cha, we are obviously from Beiliang, why is that prince our benefactor? Could it be... our ancestors were careful? "

"Bah bah!" The old man spat on the ground, looked around and scolded in a low voice, "What kind of work? Our family is... Our family is a businessman, and the regent gives us a lot of money every year, naturally He is our benefactor."

It turns out that the one who throws money is the benefactor.Abu suddenly realized.

"Understood, then I'm going to Yucheng." The boy took two steps, then turned his head reluctantly, "You take good care of Auntie for me."

"Don't worry," Becha just waved his hand, then hurriedly beckoned him back, and asked, "Have you brought the amulet?"

"Bring it!" The boy grinned.

"Well, remember what I told you, go." Becha looked at the back of the boy walking away, and stroked his light-colored beard thoughtfully.

At dusk, a two-story passenger boat on Yuding Lake sailed through the water and sailed under the setting sun.

Boats skidded across the calm waters, leaving behind a scaly ripple.

"It's the right choice for you guys to take the water route this time," Abu briskly walked up to the cabin on the second floor, holding some cakes from Beiliang Kingdom in his hands, and putting them on the table while talking with a few people from Da Zhou. The guest said, "The scenery of Yuding Lake is as beautiful as a fairyland. Anyone who comes to our Beiliang country will come to Yuding Lake to enjoy it. You guys came at the right time. In a few days, Yuding Lake will freeze. I can't go anymore."

"Abu, how long will it take us to go to Yucheng by water?" Zhao Shuang asked curiously, looking at the lake as vast as the sea.

"Hurry up in summer, it will arrive in about half a day, and it will take a whole night in winter, and it should arrive tomorrow morning." Abu said, sitting at the round table, seeing the other four people sitting on the fence watching the sunset outside the window, shaking his head to persuade them. He said, "Don't sit by the window all the time, come over and have dinner! Otherwise, your face will be blown out tomorrow morning. It's not obvious during the day, and the wind on the lake at night is full of salt particles, which is uncomfortable."

"Abu, are you from Changzhou?" Zhao Shuang listened to what he said clearly and clearly, at a young age, he could speak Chinese clearly, so he couldn't help but look at this young man with admiration.

"No, I'm from Yucheng, but... my mother said that Yucheng is an ominous place, and she won't let me go back to Yucheng." Abu saw that none of them had snacks, so he picked up the snacks on the table and ate them. "This time I still came out without telling my mother."

"An ominous place?" Zhao Shuang looked puzzled, and then glanced at Yang Xuan, who just looked at the setting sun lightly, with a calm expression, as if he really came out to swim in the lake.

"When Yucheng was broken more than ten years ago... many people died, the young emperor and queen mother of my Northern Liang Kingdom... all died," Abu said while eating, and took another sip of water, "Everyone said, There are resentful spirits in Yucheng. Now...after so many years, people still don’t want to go to Yucheng.”

"So, who did you learn your Chinese from?" Zhao Shuang asked.

"It was my adoptive father who taught me. Since I was a child, my adoptive father asked me to read Da Zhou's classics." Abu patted his stomach contentedly after eating, "My adoptive father said that our family is a businessman, and we will do Da Zhou's business in the future. Knowing Chinese is not enough."

As the sky was getting dark, the passenger ship sailed past a piece of land, and suddenly there was a commotion in the lower cabin.

"That's the island in the center of Yuding Lake," Abu jumped two steps, walked to the fence, pointed to the dark land not far away, and said, "It was on that island that my young emperor and queen mother of Beiliang Kingdom lived. ... was burned to death by a fire. Now there is no grass growing on the island, and no one dares to go there."

"There is such a thing." Zhao Shuang replied awkwardly, and then glanced at the man in black next to him.The murderer didn't even change his face and heartbeat, he was still looking at the scenery.

"Abu, you...would you blame Da Zhou?" Zhao Shuang asked curiously.

Both Becha and Abu are Yang Xuan's "informants", so they naturally know his identity and who killed Beiliang's young emperor and queen mother back then, so there is nothing to hide from Abu.

"Winners and losers, there are always casualties in wars, what is there to blame?" Abu held a plate of Hubing in his hand, and handed a piece of biscuit to Zhao Shuang. He found that this little brother was good-looking and quite approachable, " What's more, both my aunt and Bei Cha said that it was our Northern Liang who provoked the Great Zhou first, and the prince would lead the army to attack Yucheng."

As he spoke, Abu glanced at the man in black next to him. His face was like a crown of jade, and he couldn't see any joy or anger. He couldn't associate this man with the villain who killed Yucheng more than ten years ago.

"Winners and losers... If there is a day," Zhao Shuang took the cake, took a bite and asked, "If there is a chance for you, will you seek revenge from Da Zhou?"

"Brother, I'm different from you guys. I, Abu, have always wanted to live a smooth life and take good care of my mother since I was a child." Abu moved the plate to Yang Xuan, Ming Jing, and Zhang Ruixue, and asked them to take a piece too. "I'm not as ambitious as you guys. My mind is full of fighting and killing. What's the point of that?"

After the boy finished speaking, he sat back at the table, raised his legs, and looked at the people in front of him proudly.

"If the people of Beiliang thought like you, there wouldn't be this great war." Zhao Shuang was quite happy to be called big brother by him, and asked with a smile, "You said that our minds are full of fighting and killing?" , what do you think about every day?"

"Of course it's to make money!" Abu proudly took out a bulging money bag from his skirt, and shook it in front of everyone.

"If you beat someone or kill someone, can you take that person's money bag as your own?" Zhao Shuang raised an eyebrow at him and asked tentatively, "Would you beat someone... or kill someone?" ?”

Yang Xuan looked at the two people in front of him, not understanding why they started chatting, tugged at Zhao Shuang's sleeve and said, "Abu is still a child, why are you telling him these things?"

"What child?" Unexpectedly, Abu suddenly became serious when he heard the words, and watched him raise three fingers, "I, Abu, am already 13 years old this year, and I am no longer a child!"

13 years old?Zhao Shuang tilted his head and looked at the boy.

The people of Beiliang were born tall, and a 13-year-old boy was already as tall as a boy who was fifteen or sixteen years older than Zhou.

"Abu, go downstairs and rest." Yang Xuan winked at the stairs, and the boy took another favorite snack from the table, and skipped downstairs.

Seeing Abu coming downstairs, the four of them sat around the round table and began to have dinner.

Hu biscuits from Beiliang are astringent and difficult to swallow, and milk tea is also sticky and tasteless.

Knowing that Zhao Shuang was not used to eating it, Yang Xuan bought some maltose from the guests downstairs and prepared to add it to Zhao Shuang's milk tea when she came back.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he went upstairs, he saw Ming Jing handing a glass of clear water to Zhao Shuang, who also took the water with a smile and drank it.

The man in black suddenly darkened his face, as if he was going to eat people, he walked slowly to the table and put maltose on the table heavily.

Seeing his expression, Zhang Ruixue quickly pulled Ming Jing's sleeves, while Ming Jing raised his head and called out dully, "Wang... Wang Ye..."

 Thank you Glomi for the small encounter, trying to meet the monthly tickets voted by the two cuties!
  I've had a cold and cough for the past two days, but luckily I don't have a fever, huh~
