  Chapter 750 hints

"Be careful."

  Xie Jingchen was so frightened that he quickly protected Chu Nanzhi, and hurriedly scolded Li Shiyao: "Don't die, quickly hide in the cabin."

  Li Shiyao was so depressed that she walked directly to the edge of the boat and quietly stared at the rain of arrows falling from the sky.

   Chu Nanzhi and Xie Jingchen were dumbfounded by this scene.

  After a long time, Li Shiyao turned around suddenly, frowned and said, "It seems that the arrow didn't intend to hurt anyone."

  Hearing this, Chu Nanzhi immediately poked her head out, listened to the movement around her, and took a closer look, and found that most of the arrows shot fell into the water, and the rest were just stuck in the side of the boat.

  Chen Chuan held a thick piece of wood, came over in a daze, and asked in puzzlement: "Princess, what is the intention of this Yizhou navy?"

   "It is indeed puzzling. Although the Yizhou navy is not as good as the navy of the Jiangnan states in your country, even if it is not good at archers, it will not be so unbearable."

  Xie Jingchen also looked at Chu Nanzhi with a puzzled expression.

   "Keep going at full speed."

  Looking at the strange eyes of several people, Chu Nanzhi only ordered in a low voice.

  According to the rules of naval patrols, if there is an abnormal situation, they will usually first warn the ship to stop and then choose to attack after failing.

   If the Yizhou navy is really so reasonable, then she will have to be more arrogant and rush forward before the enemy can react.

   Having received the order, Chen Chuan didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and hurriedly ordered the boat boss to move on.

  When it was fifty meters away from the enemy ship, it completely entered the strong attack range of the bow and crossbow, and encountered a violent arrow rain attack.

   But the result was the same as before, some feather arrows fell into the water, but a few feather arrows were inserted into the hull.

  Chu Nanzhi suddenly noticed something strange.

  Even though the Yizhou navy knows the principle of courtesy first and soldiers later, they are not so polite. With their excellent equipment, it is not impossible to block the ship strongly. Such courtesy is not like the treatment for ordinary business travelers.

  Just when everyone was puzzled, a clear voice suddenly came from the opposite side:

   "We were ordered to inspect the Yizhou section of the Jinglu Canal, and we did not have any malicious intentions. Please stop your boat for interrogation."

Hearing such a gentle voice, Chu Nanzhi got up straight away, walked slowly to the edge of the boat, looked into the distance, and saw a man in light green official clothes standing on a large boat on the far left, standing on the The bow of the boat looked over here.

"Sun Boren, Lieutenant of the Navy in Xiayizhou, heard that recently a merchant ship went south to do business with the Zhao family caravan. I have heard that Zhao Taigong in the south of the Yangtze River has a wealth of wealth, which can rival the country. A distant relative happened to have a group of people who went overseas. The silk needs to be sold, I wonder if you can help your caravan to transport it out?"

The man begged very earnestly: "Just because my distant relative's family is in trouble, I rely on this batch of silk to turn over. I want to find a good price through the Zhao family's caravan. You are willing to board the boat and talk about it." ?”

  Looking at the man from afar, he signaled the soldiers to put down the ready-to-go crossbows in their hands, and Chu Nanzhi concluded even more that the man probably didn't realize who was on board.

   "Don't worry, everyone, I only take two entourages on board, and there is absolutely no intention of harm."

  Seeing that there was no response, Sun Boren shouted again.

  Chu Nanzhi thought it over and over again, and then ordered Chen Chuan to ask the boat boss to slow down the speed of the boat, and slowly stopped when it was nearly ten meters away from the Yizhou warship.

  Afterwards, everyone hid in the cabin and waited for an opportunity. Only the boss of the ship led a few handymen under him to the bow to greet him.

  Anyway, the captain of the navy boarded the ship himself, and only brought two entourages with him. If there is any abnormality, it will be easier to escape if the leader is captured.

   and Xie Jingchen continued to hide behind the door of the cabin, and when Sun Boren boarded the boat, the two held their breath and waited quietly for his conversation with the boss of the boat.

  But before the boss of the ship opened his mouth, Sun Boren immediately knelt down and kowtowed to the cabin: "Your Majesty, Sun Boren, Captain of the Yizhou Navy, pays homage to Princess Pingning."

  Chu Nanzhi and Xie Jingchen were both stunned.

  It seems that this person boarded the ship because of another meaning.

Xie Jingchen was worried about being deceitful, so he immediately motioned to her silently, and hissed lightly: "This person is not kind, as the captain of a navy, he is so polite to the passing merchants, he must have noticed your whereabouts, deliberately pretending to be so polite." He was so diligent and wanted to lure you ashore and wait to receive credit."

   "You are right."

  Received by Xie Jingchen's reminder, Chu Nanzhi continued to listen to the movement outside, but Sun Boren continued to talk to himself:

"There are very few people that Xiaguan Ping respects. Except for the late Yang Situ, Concubine Pingning is quite a figure. With her status as a woman, she was able to disturb the situation in just a few months after entering Beijing, and now she has retired completely. , I really admire you."

  Hearing Yang Runchen's name, Chu Nanzhi vaguely sensed the intention of this person's visit, and immediately got up and walked out, but did not signal Chen Chuan to relax his vigilance.

   "Lieutenant Sun really has good eyesight, to be able to notice that Bengong is on this boat."

  Chu Nanzhi looked at the burly figure. There was no sword in his waist, but the two sergeants under his hands carried two long halberds for self-defense.

   "It's not that the officials are smart, but that they are entrusted with loyalty."

  Sun Boren replied with a smile: "I don't know if the princess still remembers Hu Maoxi?"

   "Magistrate Hu?"

  Chu Nanzhi couldn't help showing a look of joy on his face. He hadn't seen this old man for several months in Beijing. He wanted to inquire about his whereabouts, but he was entangled in trivial matters all day long, so he forgot about it.

   "That's right, it's him."

Sun Boren continued to narrate: "This person is a close friend of my classmate for many years, but he was excluded and demoted from Beijing within half a month after entering Beijing, and now he is an official in Anhe County on the border of Langzhou. It is expected that the concubine will go south by water, and she will specially order the officials to come to meet her."

   "Magistrate Hu really understands this palace."

  Chu Nanzhi shook her head helplessly, unable to laugh or cry for a while.

   "Brother Hu worked with the princess, he must know the princess far better than the blind and arrogant King Qinghe."

  Recalling Hu Maoxi's eyes full of admiration when he entrusted this matter, Sun Boren still can't forget it.

  There are not many people in the world who can play the lofty Qinghe King and the scheming Yang Situ in the palm of their hands, let alone a woman.

   It's interesting just thinking about it.

   "So, Captain Sun is going to let me go?"

  Chu Nanzhi asked with some uncertainty.

   "The princess doesn't have to question it. If the officials want to be unfavorable to the princess and the little princesses, they can take you down as early as before."

Pointing to the warship behind him, Sun Boren explained in a slow tone: "If the officer is just looking for credit, since he already knows the whereabouts of the princess and Xiaojun Wang Xiaojun, he can block the Jinglu Canal and force the princess to enter the city. Why bother to be so hypocritical and deceitful."

  After hearing this, Chu Nanzhi trusted him a bit more.
