Start practicing from marrying a disfigured princess

Chapter 206 Definitely hold His Highness Chang An

He casually threw it on a chair not far away, closed his eyes and meditated.

The next day, a ray of sunlight penetrated the window and shone into the house.

Ren Pingsheng opened his eyes, got up and changed his clothes, pushed open the door, and walked to the lobby, only to find that everyone including Chang An was fully dressed and sat at the table.

Seeing Ren Pingsheng's figure, Jiang Chuyue's eyes lit up, her delicate face showed joy, and she said, "Your Majesty has woken up..."

Ren Pingsheng wanted to ask "Why did you get up so early today", but when he saw her eyes, he immediately reacted.

This is waiting for me to take them to the beach...

then.

He didn't talk nonsense, and directly pointed out the theme: "Let's eat something first, and then we will go to Chanzhou Port together."

The voice just fell.

Jiang Chuyue picked up a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake and put it into her mouth, muttering like a hamster, saying in an indistinct voice, "I'm full."

aside.

Mu Rou and Qiu'er also picked up a piece of pastry, took a bite, and stopped as if she was full.

For them who have lived in the inland since childhood, the blue sea and blue sky are indeed very attractive.

Before that, due to various reasons, I couldn't come to see it.

Now that it is so hard to have such an opportunity, I am naturally looking forward to it.

Seeing them like this, Ren Pingsheng stopped talking, picked up two steamed buns and said, "Now that we've finished eating, let's go!"

…………

early morning.

In Chanzhou Port, the morning mist floats gently on the sea, making the entire port shrouded in a layer of soft white.

As time passed, the sun gradually rose, the morning fog dissipated, and the outline of Chanzhou Port gradually became clear.

There are many small boats on both sides of the port, docked there quietly, swaying slightly with the breeze.

On the sea surface in the center, some ships can be vaguely seen coming in and out. Some ships are full of cargo, while others are carrying passengers. Driven by the waves, they are slowly sailing to the distance.

All around, some fishermen can be seen busy arranging fishing nets, repairing boats, and arranging fishing gear.

Their figures look extraordinarily tough in the sun, and their dark skin adds a simple charm to the bustling Chanzhou Port.

In addition, you can also see flocks of white birds soaring in the air, making melodious chirping sounds.

For the fishermen who lived by the sea in the era, all this is just an ordinary scene in ordinary life.

But for inlanders who have never set foot in the sea, it is like a beautiful scroll.

Mu Rou got off the carriage, staring blankly at everything in front of her with her pretty eyes, with a dazed look on her brows.

Beside her, Qiu'er couldn't help sighing: "So this is the sea, just like the book says, you can't see the edge at a glance..."

aside.

Jiang Chuyue seemed a little disappointed.

In her eyes, this so-called boundless sea seemed to be no different from all the lakes she had seen before.

But soon, she adjusted her mood, looked at Ren Pingsheng, and asked curiously: "My lord, are we going to go to sea today?"

Ren Pingsheng squinted at her and asked, "Do you mean going into the sea, or going out into the sea?"

Jiang Chuyue was slightly taken aback, and asked, "What's the difference?"

Ren Pingsheng opened his mouth, just about to explain.

Qiu'er on the side took the first step and said: "My servant thinks that one is going to the sea, and the other is going to the sea by boat."

Ren Pingsheng was silent for a second, then nodded slightly: "That's about it."

Jiang Chuyue let out an "oh", and then asked, "Then, shall we go to sea today?"

Ren Pingsheng replied: "It depends on the situation."

After finishing speaking, he looked at the busy port not far away.

There are several relatively large cargo ships docked there, and they can be seen from a long distance away. There are many guards in light armor guarding the cargo ships. Each of them looks like a strong and strong man, and his strength is not weak.

Counting the guards on the deck of the cargo ship, it is roughly estimated that there are at least 600 people.

this moment.

Ren Pingsheng suddenly understood.

Before the prefect of Chanzhou died, why did he write a letter to Emperor Zhaowu, asking for additional soldiers to be stationed in Chanzhou.

With such a large number of elite guards, if there is trouble, the existing troops in Chanzhou City may not be able to withstand it.

but.

For these cargo ships, it is human nature to have more elite guards.

After all, these days, bandits and bandits can be seen everywhere, not to mention the unattended sea.

You don't need to think about it, pirates must be rampant, without these guards, what business do you do, what kind of goods do you deliver?

Ren Pingsheng thought so, turned his gaze away, and looked to the other side.

The location of the port, the water level is deep enough to accommodate some large cargo ships.

On both sides of the port, there are some small boats docked.

Most of them are the fishing boats of local fishermen in Chanzhou, which look no different from those on the rivers and lakes.

"The cargo ships of the merchants and the fishing boats of the fishermen have their own positions, and they are fairly orderly... Although there are not many government arresters in the entire Chanzhou Port, there is no trouble, and it looks normal.

From this point of view, the death of the prefect of Chanzhou should have nothing to do with his visit to Chanzhou Port. The problem still lies in the city of Chanzhou.

I still have to focus on the officials in the Chanzhou government, and I don’t know if they will show some cheating feet after they learn that I have come to Chanzhou Port.

I hope to hear good news from Bai Ping and Murong when we go back..."

Standing on a slope, Ren Pingsheng carefully observed the scenes in various parts of Chanzhou Port, and this idea came to his mind.

Just at this time.

Jiang Chuyue's soft voice came from beside her again:

"My lord, can we go over there and have a look?"

Ren Pingsheng turned his head and saw her pointing somewhere.

It was at the edge of the entire Chanzhou Port, and there were not many fishing boats or people in sight.

"Ah."

Ren Pingsheng nodded slightly, and said casually: "Be careful."

"remembered!"

Jiang Chuyue raised her eyebrows, smiled, grabbed Chang An's arm, and said a little excitedly, "Senior Sister, let's go pick up crabs!"

Qiu'er looked at the two of them, hesitated for a moment, looked at her young lady, and said softly: "Miss..."

Just opened his mouth and stopped, hesitant to speak.

She also wanted to go to the beach with Jiang Chuyue to see if she could pick up some interesting things, and if possible, touch the sea water.

However, on second thought.

The seaside is windy, and my young lady is sick and can't stand the wind and cold.

If I run to play, who will take care of my young lady.

So, he swallowed back what he wanted to say.

Mu Rou seemed to see her thoughts, with a smile on her face, she said softly: "Sister Qiu'er, let's go together, I can take care of myself."

Qiu'er's eyelashes trembled, and she said, "The seaside wind is too strong, and this servant doesn't want to go..."

He said so, but his eyes subconsciously glanced at the backs of Jiang Chuyue and Chang An, obviously duplicity.

Seeing this scene, Mu Rou thought for a second, then lowered her voice and said, "Sister Qiu'er stays here, why should I be with Mr. Ren..."

Speaking of which, stop abruptly.

it is more than words.

Qiu'er was stunned for a moment, and after realizing what the young lady meant, she opened her eyes wide in disbelief.

Mu Rou saw that she was looking at him with strange eyes, a faint blush appeared on her fair face, and she didn't speak any more.

at this time.

Qiu'er came close to her and said in a low voice: "Miss, don't worry, this servant will definitely hold His Highness Chang An back...Miss must seize this opportunity, maybe..."

Having said that, I felt a little unspeakable, so I stopped again.

after all.

No matter what I said, it sounded like I was trying to provoke the relationship between the son and His Highness Chang An.

Although I said that I was thinking of the young lady and wanted the young lady to occupy some position in Shizi's heart, but it was still not appropriate.

then.

She didn't say any more, just said: "Miss, take care."

After finishing speaking, she resolutely turned around and left, shouting at Jiang Chuyue's back: "Miss Chuyue, wait for me!"

Just half a stick of incense.

Only Ren Pingsheng and Mu Rou were left on the slope.

Although there is some distance in the middle, it still looks like a pair of lovers playing by the sea.

Ren Pingsheng planned to go to the port for a stroll, but when he saw Qiu'er leaving with Chang An and Jiang Chuyue, he was slightly taken aback.

Qiu'er left.

Who will take care of the little celestial master?
As soon as this question popped up in my mind, I heard Mu Rou's voice next to my ear:
"It's good for me to sit here and watch the sea. The official business is important, and the prince doesn't need to take care of me."

Ren Pingsheng said: "Business?"

Mu Rou looked at him, blinked, and asked, "Didn't the prince come here to investigate the murder of the magistrate?"

Ren Pingsheng was silent for a few seconds, and asked, "Why does Miss Mu think so?"

Mu Ju said: "Because Shizi has never been the kind of dandy who gives up lightly, there must be a reason for saying that at the inn yesterday."

Ren Pingsheng was noncommittal and fell into silence.

Immediately afterwards, Mu Rou continued: "I think His Highness Chang An can also see it, otherwise His Highness Chang An's temper would not have accompanied Miss Chuyue to the beach..."

Unspoken.

Chang An left just to make room for him to investigate the case, and he didn't want his presence to disturb him.

Hearing this, Ren Pingsheng subconsciously looked towards the beach not far away.

Chang An, who was wearing a moon-white long dress, walked slowly. He was tall and slender, and his back alone was enough to attract attention.

After a few breaths.

Ren Pingsheng withdrew his gaze, sat down, and said: "Today I came here just to understand the situation of the port. It's about the same after a look, and there's nothing to check."

Mu Rou asked softly: "Mr. Ren is not going to find a few boatmen, and ask if there is anything unusual at the port these days?"

Ren Pingsheng was slightly taken aback.

He really didn't think about this question.

after all.

The magistrate died in the city, so what would the boatmen in these ports know.

But, on second thought.

The key to investigating this kind of endless unsolved case is not to miss any detail.

It is no exaggeration to say that every trivial detail may eventually become the key to solving the case.

Thinking of this.

He no longer hesitated, looked at Mu Rou, and said, "Thank you, Miss Mu, for reminding me."

After a pause, he asked again, "Miss Mu, do you want to come with me?"

Although Mu Rou's strength after her eruption is comparable to that of a superhuman.

But on weekdays, she is seriously ill and weak, leaving her here alone, I still feel a little uneasy.

Mu Rou looked at Chang An on the beach, hesitated for a moment, and still chose to refuse: "It's windy at the beach, that's all."

Ren Pingsheng stopped talking, took off the fox fur that was draped over his shoulders, spread it on the ground, and said, "Miss Mu will sit and have a rest, I will go back when I go."

After speaking, he walked towards the port.

Mu Rou stood there for a while, but still sat on the soft fox fur.

The melodious chirping of seabirds came from afar.

A gust of sea breeze blows gently, bringing the unique fresh breath of sea water.

Sitting there, looking at Ren Pingsheng's back, she felt unprecedented peace in her heart, and her brows and eyes were full of softness.

the other side.

Ren Pingsheng came to the port, stopped a hard-working tracker, and asked, "Is there any place to rent a boat here? How much money would it cost to rent a boat?"

The tracker stopped in his tracks and looked Ren Pingsheng up and down.

Seeing his luxurious clothes and handsome appearance, he immediately realized that he was a son of a family who came to play on the beach.

"This young man wants to go to sea for fun?"

Ren Pingsheng nodded slightly: "Exactly."

The tracker asked again: "How many people are there in the young master's party?"

Ren Pingsheng said: "Five or six."

The tracker asked again: "How many days will you go to sea?"

Ren Pingsheng said: "One or two days is enough, the picture is fresh."

The tracker said: "It's good to rent a small boat. It will cost hundreds of taels of silver for a day or two."

Having said that, fall silent.

Ren Pingsheng repeated the previous question: "Where can I rent a boat?"

As he spoke, he took out a banknote of one or two taels of silver from his pocket and handed it over.

When the tracker saw the silver bill, his eyes lit up, and after reaching out to take it, his brows were full of smiles, and he said respectfully: "Liu Laosan can rent a boat there, I will take you there."

Afterwards, he stuffed the banknote into his bosom and led Ren Pingsheng to a certain place.

Ren Pingsheng followed behind, casually chatting: "My lord heard people say that the climate on the sea changes as soon as it changes. After going out to sea, if there is a heavy rain, no matter how good the water quality is, no matter how high your cultivation is, you will inevitably die if you fall into the water."

The tracker replied: "Master Hui, you are right to say so, but you have lived by the sea for a long time, and you can more or less tell what the weather is like. If there is a bad day, no matter how much money you pay to rent a boat, no one will take you out."

"I see."

Ren Pingsheng nodded slightly, and asked again: "How's the weather these few days?"

The tracker said: "Bless you, the King of Sea Dragon, the weather is still good."

The real dragon can go up to the sea, call the wind and call the rain, and has been worshiped by the people of this land since ancient times.

In the myths and legends of the human race, wherever there is water, no matter rivers, lakes or seas, there are dragon kings stationed there.

Today, the real dragon clan is almost extinct, but the custom of worshiping the dragon king is still handed down.

Sea Dragon King Blessing is a phrase that is often said by the people by the sea.

Hearing the words "Sea Dragon King".

Ren Pingsheng couldn't help but think of the only real dragon left in the world, Mo Qian.

I don't know how she planned to take revenge on herself after suffering a loss last time...

anyway.

Emperor Zhaowu has already signed an agreement with Yaozu.

Why is the Yaozu mission still in the capital?
Could it be that they plan to live permanently in the capital?
I thought about it for a while.

Ren Pingsheng put aside distracting thoughts, looked at a group of barbarians passing by, and casually asked the tracker: "There are usually many barbarians here?"
