Ji Tang

Chapter 542 Overseas Notes: Set sail to the sea!

How could they not recognize this jade ring?
As the Marquis's only hobby, how could he not wear beautiful jade?

And this jade ring, carved from the finest Lantian jade, was something that Mr. Hou often wore and sometimes played with in his hands.

As Ji Song's confidant, he knew that the Marquis had sent someone when he saw a jade ring.

"Please! No, I will go out to greet you personally!"

The two of them ran out quickly regardless of the surprise in the Yamen servant's eyes.

At this time, he touched the non-existent sweat on his forehead and felt very happy in his heart. Fortunately, he didn't offend that person, otherwise he would never be able to eat and walk around.

But what made him curious was who could make Shijun and the leader of Dengzhou Port lose their composure like this?
Xue Li resisted his sleepiness. He had to explain the matter clearly, otherwise he would be delayed a lot of time, which was never allowed.

Yao Chang and Liu Zhan were shocked when they saw the people outside the door. How could they be so embarrassed?

At the same time, I felt a little uneasy. Could something have happened?
"Who are you? Why did you take out this jade ring?"

Liu Zhan said doubtfully.

Xue Li wanted to salute, but his tired body no longer allowed him to do so.

He could only lean forward and say: "Xue Li, my boy, is a disciple of Marquis Hao. This time I have something important to do with Mingzhou Governor Yao Shijun and Liu Gang Supervisor."

Liu Zhan and Yao Chang looked at each other, and Yao Chang said, "I'll just wait. If you have anything to say, just tell me!"

Xue Li wanted to take something out of his arms, but his difficult move frightened both Liu Zhan and Liu Zhan!
What has happened?Are you surprised that such a simple action is so difficult?
At this time, they didn't care much. One of them supported Xue Li, and the other took out something wrapped in yellow satin from Xue Li's arms.

Xue Li said with difficulty: "There are His Majesty's imperial edicts, documents from the three provinces, and orders from the Ministry of War. You will know at a glance."

Yao Chang was shocked. He didn't expect that there was an imperial edict from His Majesty?
He quickly took out the imperial edict, no longer caring about other etiquette at this time.

After reading the imperial edict, Yao Chang opened the documents of the three provinces and the transfer order of the Ministry of War. His expression became more and more serious. When he saw that the Marquis actually wanted the fleet to go south to grab food, it was even more unbelievable!

Handing the things to Liu Zhan, who was already impatient, he supported Xue Li and looked at him with a slightly different look.

The edicts, documents, and orders are all true.

This couldn't fool his eyes. What surprised him was that Xue Li rushed from Chang'an to Dengzhou in just five days?
What does this mean?
It shows that they didn't rest much at all on the road. They still need good horses to ride, otherwise they would never arrive so quickly.

Xue Li saw that the two of them had already believed him, so he said urgently: "Your Majesty, your disciple Liu Xiancheng is currently in the wilderness thirty miles east of the city. Please hurry up and go."

Before he could finish speaking, Liu Zhan jumped up, grabbed Xue Li's collar and said angrily: "You actually left Xiancheng in the wilderness?"

Yao Chang's gaze towards Xue Li also changed somewhat at this time.

Of course they know who Liu Xiancheng is. They all know Liu Xiancheng, Ji Qing, and Wang Xuance.

But now he was thrown into the wild by this person?

If an accident happens, is this okay?
But he didn't care much at this time. He quickly asked people to prepare horses. He wanted to go and find Liu Xiancheng himself.

Liu Zhan said, "You stay, I'll go."

"The imperial edict makes it very clear that this matter is extremely urgent and cannot be delayed at all. The ship is right there, but it lacks a lot of supplies. All these require coordination by you, the governor."

Yao Chang was stunned for a moment, but then he did not refuse.

"Hey, what's wrong with you?"

At this time, the Yamen servant on the side shouted quickly.

It turned out that after Xue Li completed the task, his whole body relaxed. His physical fatigue made him unable to hold on any longer.

Yao Chang was shocked: "Go and call the doctor quickly"

Three days later.

When Ji Qing led the people to Dengzhou Port, they were already exhausted, so he could only let them rest first!
Including Wang Xuance and Ji Qing, a total of 130 people have arrived.

After everyone arrived at the place, they couldn't help feeling tired. Even Ji Qing couldn't help but fall asleep.

The afternoon of the second day.

They had slept a whole day and night, which showed how exhausted they were!

Xue Li stood anxiously outside Ji Qing's door, his expression even more decadent, his hair disheveled and his eyes red.

Ji Qing stretched out and opened the door, and was shocked when she saw Xue Li outside the door.

"Xue Li?"

Ji Qing quickly stepped forward to hold him back and said, "What's going on with you? Why are you acting like this?"

Xue Li and the others came three days earlier than him and should have rested long ago. Why are they like this?
He looked behind Xue Li, but did not see Liu Xiancheng.

The bad premonition in my heart is getting heavier and heavier. Could it be that
"Brother Qing!"

It's hard for him, a big man, to actually cry in victory.

At this time, he was not the general of Three Arrows Dingtian Mountain. He only knew that he had lost his friend.

"Why are you crying? Tell me clearly what is going on." Ji Qing said anxiously.

Wang Xuance, who heard the commotion outside, also hurried out. When he saw this scene, his whole body trembled.

problem occurs?
This is his only thought at this moment.

When Xue Li finished speaking with his lips moving, both Wang Xuance and Ji Qing were stunned.

Liu Xiancheng is missing?

When Liu Zhan rushed to the place Xue Li mentioned that day, all he saw was a pile of scattered clothes, but Liu Xiancheng was missing.

Yes, it's gone.

There was no blood on the ground, and there was no sign of a fight, just a rut.

How could Liu Zhan accept such a result?

Liu Xiancheng is the proud disciple of the Marquis. He knows how much the Marquis values ​​these people. If something happens, no matter who it is, they should be prepared to face the wrath of the Marquis!
Despite the fact that Mr. Hou has been reclusive in the past few years and rarely appears in public.

But anyone who knows him knows that Haojihou Jisong is definitely not someone to be trifled with.

During the Qiang-Di rebellion in the northwest, everyone understood the terror of the Ji family, and no one dared to provoke the Ji family easily.

He searched everywhere like crazy, but found nothing.

After returning to the city, he took all his anger out on Xue Li, thinking it was all Xue Li's fault.

"Missing? How could it be missing?"

Ji Qing said in a daze.

The two of them grew up together, studied together, practiced martial arts together, got married together, and became fathers together.
Although they are not real brothers, they are closer than real brothers.

But now it's gone?
"No, I don't believe it!"

'boom! '

He went up and punched and kicked Xue Li. If Wang Xuance hadn't held him back, he might have beaten Xue Li to death.

"Okay, calm down," Wang Xuance said angrily.

Ji Qing yelled like crazy: "Calm down? How do you want me to calm down?"

"Xiancheng is gone, he is gone." Ji Qing almost shouted.

Wang Xuance knew that Ji Qing had lost control at this time and ignored him.

He helped Xue Li up and said, "What's going on? Tell me slowly."

When Xue Li finished speaking, especially after Dao Ying Er was guarding with four eaglets, his eyes lit up.He said excitedly: "You mean Ying Er and the others have been guarding Xian Cheng?"

Xue Li nodded and confirmed: "Yes, otherwise I wouldn't leave like this."

"Cough cough!"

Xue Li coughed quickly, but Ji Qing didn't hold back at all just now. That means Xue Li was rough and thick-skinned, and if the others didn't die, they would be half disabled.

Ji Qing also regained some sense at this time, and he felt happy when he heard that Ying Er was guarding him.

He knew what Ying Er was capable of.

As the first two training falcons to follow Mr., if they went crazy, not even he would dare to take advantage of them.

What's more, there are four eaglets that are about to reach adulthood. With such a combination, even dozens of people would dare to act rashly.

"Then have you found Ying Er and the others?" Ji Qing asked hopefully.

Xue Li shook his head sadly.

Although Ji Qing was a little disappointed, after knowing the news, most of their worries were relieved.

There was no fighting at the scene, which meant that Takashi was not hostile to the visitor, maybe he was an acquaintance.

If so, it would be easy.

Ying Er can find such a big target in the sky very quickly.

Wang Xuance pondered for a moment and said: "Since we are sure that everything is over, we can't delay any longer. Sir is still waiting for us!"

Ji Qing nodded silently, he still knew the priority of the matter.

Looking at the miserable Xue Li, he showed a little apology!

He helped Xue Li up and said solemnly: "It's my fault this time. When you recover from your injury, you can beat me up and we will be even. How about that?"

Wang Xuance snickered on the side, but was glared at by Ji Qing, and then he restrained himself.

Xue Li smiled bitterly and said: "It's not that serious. If something happens to Xiancheng, how can I still have the face to see you sir?"

"Don't mention it again at this time!"

Ji Qing's eyes softened a lot, and she said with a smile: "Okay, after this matter is done, I will personally cook to make amends for you."

Wang Xuance also took the time to interject: "You may not know that although Brother Qing's skills are still a little bit behind mine, his cooking skills are truly inherited from my husband. You are very lucky."

Hearing this, Ji Qing rolled up her sleeves, glanced at him sideways and said, "I see you have made some progress recently, how about we practice together?"

Wang Xuance shrank his neck and quickly hid behind Xue Li, stretched out his neck and said in dissatisfaction: "Who can fight with a reckless man like you and have the ability to practice with Xue Li? What kind of ability does it mean to bully me?"

Ji Qing was furious. Which pot was this and which pot should not be picked up?

Xue Li's time with them was not short. He was accepted as a disciple by his master and he also trained him vigorously. Although they didn't say it with their mouths, were they convinced in their hearts?
Therefore, after several discussions, Ji Qing had to admit that he was indeed inferior to Xue Li in terms of martial arts.

Xue Li smiled bitterly, but at the same time he was deeply moved!
Although Wang Xuance was very out of touch, this was just to resolve the embarrassment between him and Ji Qing!

"What are you doing?"

While everyone was fighting, Yao Chang walked in and said angrily.

"OK!
Xiancheng is still alive and dead, do you still have the intention to fool around here?

A wolf's heart and a dog's lungs are useless?Is this how Master Hou taught you? "

Ji Qing was stunned for a moment and then understood what Yao Chang meant!
Quickly explained the matter.

Yao Chang was stunned after hearing this, and then said in surprise: "Are you saying that as long as you find Ying Er and the others, you can find the child Xiancheng?"

"Yes, you know what Ying Er is capable of. What's more, there are four little eagles. With their abilities, no one can take Xiancheng away unscathed."

"The only explanation is that the person who came here knows him or Ying Er knows him, otherwise there would be no traces of a fight."

"Even if something happens to Ying Er, there are still four little eagles. Nothing will happen, so don't worry!"

Is Ji Qing still a little nervous at this time?Knowing Ying Er and not being attacked by Ying Er means that the person who rescued Xian Cheng is close to the Ji family.

If you were rescued, what could happen?

Furthermore, if you know Ying Er, you should know that Xiancheng and your husband are related. Who dares to harm Xiancheng after knowing that Xiancheng is his husband?

It's not like looking for death.

"Good good!"

Yao Chang was overjoyed and relieved at the same time.

If something happened to that kid Xiancheng on his own territory in Dengzhou, he wouldn't know how to explain it to the Marquis.

"Without further ado, you go and rectify the fleet immediately. I will prepare all the supplies you need and you can set off tomorrow."

"As for the first thing."

He thought for a moment and said helplessly: "He doesn't know where he is yet. I heard from Xue Li that he fell off his horse. I don't know if he was injured. He probably couldn't make it in time."

"Leave his affairs to me. You go south quickly to find the Marquis. After that, I will find Xiancheng and send Ying Er to give you the news."

Ji Qing was silent. He knew how much Xiancheng attached great importance to this matter, but now he couldn't go south. He must be very disappointed when he finds out, right?
But the matter was extremely urgent, and many people might die for every day of delay, so we really didn’t dare to delay.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll leave it to you to do the first thing."

After saying that, he walked out. Wang Xuance supported Xue Li and followed him.

Xue Li's injuries seemed serious, but they were all skin injuries. He could recover on the boat for a few days and it was nothing serious.

Speaking of which, he was quite unlucky. First he was beaten by Ji Song and lay in bed for several days, and now he was beaten by Ji Qing.

Could it be a natural conflict with the surname Ji?
Otherwise, when he grows up, except for being beaten by his mother a few times when he was a child, he always beats others. When will it be his turn to be beaten by others?

Ji Qing didn't know what he was thinking. He was already overwhelmed by various affairs.

Material inspection, personnel allocation, whether the hull is damaged, calculation of wind direction, etc. all need to be checked by him personally, and he does not dare to be careless at all.

My husband has said that the boat is the only partner in doing business at sea. The boat must be inspected carefully before going to sea, and it must not bring possible dangers to the sea.

There is no difference between giving your head to the Dragon King.

In the absence of Liu Xiancheng, Wang Xuance became Ji Qing's only deputy. He had been working with him for many years and quickly took over.

As for Xue Li?

Haha, I’m still recovering from my injuries!

By the time everything was ready, it was the next morning.

The students he brought were already in their places, waiting for Ji Qing's order to set sail.

But Ji Qing looked at the coast anxiously, hoping that a miracle would happen and that Xiancheng would arrive in time.

The man arrived, but it was not Liu Xiancheng, but Liu Zhan who was looking for him.

"Mr. Liu, can you find it first?" Ji Song asked eagerly.

Liu Zhan shook his head silently, which disappointed Ji Qing!
"Someone saw a giant eagle circling in the sky in Qufu. I have sent someone to check it out. I will go there myself later."

Ji Qing was disappointed, shook her head and said, "Mr. Liu, I leave everything to you. Thank you, kid!"

After saying that, he cupped his fists and bowed.

After that, he sent Liu Zhan off the ship, looked at the fleet that was ready to go, and shouted loudly and energetically: "Let's go!"

The sails were raised and the helmsman turned the helm. Soon, relying on the wind, the fleet sailed out of Dengzhou Port and headed south.
