Start Six Maids

"Red leaves?"

Chu Ci looked at Yanzi and asked curiously, "Who is Hongye?"

Yanzi reached out and rubbed Gongping's head, and said aloud, "Hongye, like Gongping, is also an orphan of Heishuicheng."

"The two have been neighbors since they were young, and they supported each other all the way up, and they have a very good relationship with each other."

"Some time ago..."

Yanzi pondered for a moment, and then said, "A woman took Hongye away, and she wants to pass on Hongye as a legacy, and teach Hongye swordsmanship!"

Chu Ci raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, "Are you sure she isn't trying to abduct Hongye?"

Yanzi shook her head slightly, "I've met her once, and from her eyes, I can see that she loves Hongye, and she really treats Hongye as a legacy!"

"What's her name?" Chu Ci asked curiously.

Yanzi took a sip of tea and said softly, "Gongsun Luluo!"

Chu Ci was taken aback, "It turned out to be her?!"

In the next second, Chu Ci suddenly understood.

Gongsun Luluo once left a message in the teahouse, saying that he had found the successor.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be red leaves!

Yanzi looked at Chu Ci in surprise, and asked, "Master Chu, do you know Gongsun Luluo?"

Chu Ci smiled and nodded, "Of course I do!"

"She is very talented in sword practice!"

"Miss Gongsun's lineage has always been passed on by a single lineage. Now that she accepts Hongye as her apprentice, she must be passing on Hongye as a mantle!"

A look of relief appeared on Yanzi's face upon hearing this.

"call···"

"I was a little worried before, but now I am completely relieved."

Gudong!

Gong Ping stuffed the snack in his hand into his mouth, then raised his head and took a sip of tea.

"Brother Chu, isn't Hongye really abducted by bad guys?"

Gong Ping looked at Chu Ci and asked uncertainly.

Chu Ci chuckled and said solemnly, "Don't worry!"

"Miss Gongsun Luluo is my friend, she will definitely treat Hongye kindly."

Gong Ping bowed his head and became silent when he heard the words.

After a while, Gong Ping raised his head, with a firm look on his small face.

"I'm still going to find Hongye!"

"I don't feel relieved if I don't see Hongye with my own eyes!"

Chu Ci couldn't help raising his eyebrows.

This kid is quite stubborn!

Yanzi shook her head helplessly, and said, "Gong Ping is like this, very stubborn!"

"If he doesn't see Hongye, he won't give up!"

Chu Ci pondered for a moment, looked at Gong Ping and said, "If you really make up your mind, then follow me."

"I'll take you to find Gongsun Luluo, and you should be able to meet your little friend Hongye!"

A look of joy appeared on Gong Ping's face, and then he asked worriedly, "Do you care about the food?"

"Ha ha···"

Chu Ci and Zui Taoist all laughed, "Don't worry, take care of the food!"

Gong Ping nodded excitedly when he heard the words, "Okay, I'll go with you!"

Yanzi smiled and rubbed Gong Ping's head, then looked at Chu Ci and said, "Young Master Chu, I will trouble you to take care of Gong Ping."

Chu Ci waved his hand and said with a smile, "I was going to see Gongsun Luluo, so I took Gongping along the way."

Yanzi showed a smile, "Master Chu, you are a good person!"

Chuci, "..."

I never thought that I would be given a good person card.

"Miss Swallow."

Chu Ci looked at Yanzi and asked aloud, "Why did you cross the Heishui River to the south this time?"

Yanzi lowered his head and stroked the pipa in his hand, and said softly, "Gusu City, Yuzhou."

Swallow said a place name and stopped talking.

Seeing this, Chu Ci didn't continue to ask, but turned around and said, "Miss Yanzi's piano skills are very good, she must have learned from a famous teacher?"

When Yanzi heard the words, there was a look of reminiscence on his face, and he said softly, "My mother taught me."

"However, when I was 15 years old, there was a sudden change in my family, and I was alone in Heishui City, and I started to make a living as a performer."

Chu Ci was taken aback, "What about your family?"

Yanzi lowered her head and said quietly, "They're all gone."

Chuci and the others fell silent after hearing the words.

Seeing this, Yanzi showed a smile on his face, and said aloud, "It doesn't have to be like this, I've been used to it for so many years."

Ding!

Yanzi stretched out his hand to gently wipe the strings, and said with a smile, "How about I play a song for everyone?"

Chu Ci poured a cup of tea, with a smile on his face, "All ears!"

Swallow sat up straight and straightened the pipa in her arms.

Ding!Ding!Boom...

The plain hand slid across the strings, and a beautiful melody sounded.

Chu Ci picked up the teacup and sipped the tea lightly, a strange look flashed in his eyes.

Xiangjiang River Moonlight Night!

Unexpectedly, Yanzi chose this song.

Ding!

At the end of the song, Yanzi put one hand on the strings.

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!

Chu Ci took the lead in puffing up his palms and came out to praise, "Good piano! Good song!"

A smile appeared on Yanzi's face, and he said softly, "Thank you."

Chu Ci picked up the teapot and poured Yanzi a cup of tea.

Holding up the teacup, Chu Ci smiled at Yanzi and said, "Respect to all the piano players in the future!"

A look of surprise appeared on Yanzi's face, he raised the teacup and said with a smile, "Cheers!"

Yanzi put down the teacup in his hand and asked softly, "Young Master Chu, where are you from?"

Chu Ci stretched out his hand and pointed to the north, and said, "Shengjing City."

"Ah!" Yanzi called softly, "Brother Chu is actually from the capital?"

"Then what does Big Brother Chu do?"

Chuci took off his waist badge, handed it to Yanzi and said, "Do you know me?"

Yanzi took the bronze waist badge curiously, and looked at it carefully.

"This is···"

Yanzi recognized the waist badge in his hand, with a look of surprise on his face, "Brother Chu unexpectedly got the bronze medal?!"

"Hehe..." Chu Ci chuckled and said, "I never thought Miss Yanzi knew her."

"That's right, I'm serving as a bronze clerk at the Empire's Secret Affairs Department."

Yanzi returned the badge to Chu Ci, and said curiously, "Brother Chu, are you traveling south this time on business?"

Chu Ci put away his badge, nodded and said, "This time I went south to investigate a case."

"Investigate the case?"

Yanzi's eyes flashed, and he opened his mouth, with a look of hesitation on his face.

Chu Ci thought that Yanzi was hesitating to ask about the case, so he said with a smile, "I can't tell you the specific case."

"But the destination is Xiancheng in the Southern Region."

"Xiancheng?" Yanzi repeated in a murmur, "It seems to be a city on the border of the Southern Region, right? I heard that His Royal Highness Xianwang lives in Xiancheng?"

Chu Ci nodded, "Well, this time we are going south to offer the city, if we pass by Gusu City in Yuzhou, then we will look for you."

Yanzi shook her head slightly when she heard the words, and said with a chuckle, "Let's talk about it when the time comes."

Chu Ci turned to look at the drunk Taoist, and asked aloud, "Master Taoist, do you know Gusu City?"

The drunk Taoist stroked his beard and said, "Gusu City..."

"Everlasting spring, pleasant scenery, is a very beautiful city."

"However, we will not pass through Gusu City this time when going south, but pass through the neighboring Suzhou-Hangzhou City."

Chu Ci pondered for a moment, then said, "If we have time, let's go to Gusu City."

Chapter 287

When Xu Shi was approaching, Chu Ci and the others came to the third cabin.

At this moment, there are already many passengers sitting in the rest area, and they are eating with their heads down.

Chu Ci called the sailors over and ordered a table of meals.

Soon the food was placed in front of Chu Ci and the others.

Just about to move his chopsticks, Chu Ci suddenly stopped.

"You seem to have forgotten something?"

Chu Ci thought for a while, then suddenly startled, "Oops!"

"Miss Zhenyu and brother Wenren are still outside!"

The drunk Taoist only then remembered, "Isn't that little girl in Yujian Palace practicing swords on the deck?"

Chu Ci stood up and said to Zui Taoist and Yanzi, "Eat first, Ruxue and I will go and see them."

After greeting Leng Ruxue, the two of Chu Ci came to the deck of the merchant ship.

The sailors of the merchant ship were still busy. At this moment, only the mainsail of the three-masted sailboat was raised, and the two jibsails were lowered.

Sailing on water at night is much slower than during the day.

Chu Ci led Leng Ruxue towards a corner of the deck, and saw Zhenyu Linglong and Wen Renyu from a distance.

Zhen Yu Linglong held the sword in one hand, facing the Heishui River, and kept slashing fiercely!

Wen Renyu stood by, looking like he wanted to go forward but didn't dare.

"Nine thousand five hundred and ninety two!"

Swish!

"Nine thousand five hundred and seventy three!"

Swish!
