Loyalty Hou Tiansheng rebellious

Chen Hen works as a fortune teller on a cargo ship, and he usually calculates two things.

The first is marriage. Most of the guys on the ship have not married a wife, so they always ask him this when they have nothing to do.

The second is the weather, sailing depends on the weather, and there are heavy rains in summer, so they asked him about it every day.

Chen Hen doesn't know fortune-telling, and he only knew a little about divination books in the past. He said it was fortune-telling, but he was actually fooling people.

It was getting late at this time, and the owner of the ship called him, probably asking him about the weather tomorrow.

In fact, he is not as accurate in judging the weather as an old man who has been sailing for many years.

The moon rises and the stars move, shining brightly on the water.

Chen Hen raised his hands, wrapped his sleeves, and slowly moved to the stern while leaning on the side of the boat.It's not that he is unstable on the boat, but if he is unstable, he has a reason not to go out of the cabin.

The owner of the boat stood with his back to the stern.The owner of the ship is also surnamed Lin, and his single name is a single word. It is easy to get close to his pseudonym at this time.

The most important thing is that Lin Nian is young, only in his early twenties.

Being with him for the past few days, Chen Hen speculated that this Captain Lin was probably the young master of a wealthy merchant family, and it was the first time that his family let him out to run a business.

Chen Hen's Taoist attire is actually very clumsy, and people with sharp eyes can tell it after staying with him for a long time, so he dare not go in front of people who have seen the world.

At that time, when he was squatting on the pier, worrying about how to get on the boat, when he saw this young master, Chen Hen's eyes lit up.

Cute, innocent, easy to deceive.

Although the young master is cute, he is serious in his work. Every night he asks him about the weather on the board of the boat.

Tonight, when the sky was brighter, Chen Hen staggered to Young Master Lin, put his hand on the ship's bulwark, and said hello: "Captain Lin, good evening."

Lin Nian was young, but he had a lot of airs, and he forced the whole boat to call him "Master" all the time.

It was as if he was talking to Chen Hen with the captain's airs, he deliberately cleared his throat, and said in a calm voice, "Good evening, sir."

Chen Hen looked up at the sky, only to see a star slipping down where the water and the sky meet.After looking at it for a while, he pretended to pinch his fingers twice, and Chen Hen said: "It will be sunny tomorrow, Captain Lin, don't worry, let's go on our way."

Nonsense, the stars in the sky are bright like something, can it be sunny?

Lin Nian only responded once.

Standing with him at the stern for a while, Chen Hen still remembered what the boy said about the emperor, and raised his hand to resign, but Lin Nian said coldly: "I'm in a small business. My boat can't carry Mr. Lin's big Buddha."

Chen Hen was taken aback for a moment, thinking that he had seen through something, and thinking about saying too much and making mistakes, he didn't want to entangle any more, so he hurriedly bowed and said, "I'm sorry, since Captain Lin didn't want to keep me, I just waited until the next pier. I pack up and get off the boat."

He was thinking about how long it would take before he could reach Jiangnan, but Lin Nian stomped his feet and called him an idiot in southern dialect.

Chen Hen was taken aback again, the young master is quite tempered, why are you still scolding?

Lin Nian said again: "You have to tell the whole story about what you are hiding from me, and then beg me to take you south."

"Hmm..." Chen Hen was at a loss for words for a while, and suddenly remembered a classic line, "The villain originally lived on the edge of the city of Suzhou. He had a house and a field at home, and his life was full of joy..."

There's no problem that rapping can't solve.

"What are you muttering about?"

"I..." Chen Hen came back to his senses, and decided to turn his back on the guest, and asked him, "Did Captain Lin see something? Why did he suddenly..."

"What's in that bag of yours? My captain now suspects you to be a thief."

Chen Hen couldn't figure it out, he carried the two silk books with him, and there was nothing else in his bag except two pieces of clothes, how could he become a thief.

Lin Nian saw that he was silent, and his expression was not very good, he hurriedly said: "I didn't search your things on purpose, it was Xiao Song who did it, he was startled, and came to tell me."

Xiao Song is the guy who lives with Chen Hen, the guy who just brought him candy and told him the latest gossip.

Well, if he didn't learn well at such a young age, Chen Hen actually didn't know when he would go through his own things.

Seeing that he still didn't speak, Lin Nian gently pushed his shoulder again and said, "Hey, talk."

Chen Hen glanced at him, and said with a low voice, "Aren't you afraid that I'm a bad person?"

As he said that, he put his hand inside the skirt of his shirt.

He looked like a bandit who murdered and robbed himself, about to take out a knife from his bosom.

At this moment, the boat bumped a bit, Lin Nian couldn't stand still, and leaned back against the side of the boat: "You, what are you doing? I called for someone, I... There are about thirty people on my boat."

"Scream." Chen Hen held back his smile, "Even if you shout your throat out, no one will come to rescue you."

Lin Nian screamed, closed his eyes tightly, and turned his head, not daring to look at him: "Go away!"

Chen Hen returned to him the idiot he had scolded himself just now, took out from his arms the candy he asked Xiao Song to buy for him during the day, held his hand with one hand, and put the candy wrapped in oil paper in the other Put it firmly in his hand.

"Thank you, the captain, for taking me these days, and treat you to some sweets. I'll leave when I get to the next pier. Why don't you throw me into the river to feed the fish right now?"

Seeing that he was still in a daze, Chen Hen smiled, still thinking about the matter about the emperor that Xiao Song had not finished talking about, said his farewell, turned around and went back to the cabin.

Little guy Song was young and couldn't stay idle. He waited in the cabin for a while, but when Chen Hen didn't come back, he wandered away and ran away.

Chen Hen went back and waited for a while, but he didn't come back. He was about to go out to look for him. When he opened the door, he saw Lin Nian standing in front of the door holding candies in both hands.

"Why is Captain Lin..."

Without waiting for Chen Hen to finish speaking, he casually stuffed the candy to him, rushed into the small cabin, dug out Chen Hen's little bag, and shook out everything in the bag.

He mentioned the outer garment that Chen Hen brought out from the palace: "You take this..."

Chen Hen's face turned cold in an instant, and his voice also became cold: "Put it down."

Lin Nian was taken aback by him, and as soon as he let go, he threw the outer garment onto the quilt spread on the floor.Chen Hen stepped forward in two or three steps, bent down to pick up the outer garment, and folded it like a treasure.

Lin Nian stepped back, and muttered softly: "You are a poor, bastard, how can you have such clothes? I suspect you are a thief."

Chen Hen tilted his head, raised his eyes, and glanced at him lightly: "I'll get off the boat at the next pier, if you want me to jump into the river and swim back now, that's fine."

"If you explain clearly the origin of this dress and your small hand stove, I will take you to the south of the Yangtze River."

Chen Hen didn't bother to pay attention to him, sat on the quilt, and rearranged the things he had shaken out one by one.

"Look at you, this one is a silk shirt, embroidered with gold thread—" Lin Nian sat down in front of him, not daring to touch the clothes, stretched out his hand and retracted it, wrinkled his nose, "You Look at the others, they are all bamboo cloth clothes."

Chen Hen put away the things without saying a word, Lin Niancai reacted belatedly, and hurriedly said: "Sir, don't be angry, I am afraid that you will sell the stolen goods on the spot. Look, there is a river when you open the window. If you put Throw things out, then..."

Lin Nian shrank his neck, he seemed to be even more angry.

After a stalemate for a while, Lin Nian gave in first, tugged at his sleeves, and half flattered him, "Hey, what were you going out for just now?"

Chen Hen glanced at him and said, "Go find Xiao Song."

"He listened to the story at the book stand all day, and now he is looking for someone to tell the story." Lin Nian smiled, "If you want to hear the story, I will tell you the story, I will tell you the story with him today. Together, we are all staying at the storytelling booth."

Chen Hen lied to him: "I heard from Xiao Song that the emperor..."

Sure enough, before Chen Hen could finish speaking, Lin Nian quickly answered, "Hey, I think it's something. It's just that the emperor re-appointed the Marquis of Zhongyi." For those who were abolished, counting the days, it has been almost half a year."

"The Lord of Loyalty..."

"Marquis Zhongyi is in the palace for a while. I heard from outsiders that the mansion of Marquis Zhongyi has been overhauled, and it was done according to Lord Hou's preferences. The scenery in the south of the Yangtze River. The emperor moved the treasury there, and rewarded it like flowing water. Send it to the Hou's mansion."

Chen Hen nodded thoughtfully.Li Yan said that Hou Zhongyi was still in the palace, probably because he didn't want him to be a living target on the road. When he really arrived in the south of the Yangtze River, everyone around him would know that Hou Zhongyi had won the Sacred Heart, which could be regarded as giving him prestige.

Li Yan, Li Yan, Chen Hen suddenly missed him.

Lin Nian poked him: "Don't you want to explain your clothes and incense burner to me? Then beg me to take you to Jiangnan?"

Chen Hen sighed helplessly, and said firmly, "I don't want to."

"Eh? What's the matter with you?"

Not wanting to talk to him anymore, Chen Hen tidied up the bundle, hugged it in his arms, and lay down with his clothes on.

"Eh? Are you asleep? Why are you sleeping so early?"

Chen Hen thought for a while, then opened his eyes and looked at him: "Do you have to listen to my explanation?"

"Yes." Lin Nian followed his example and lay down on Xiao Song's bunk.

"Can I lie?"

"Yes..." Lin Nianteng sat up, "No!"

"Then let's not talk about it."

"That's okay?" This is a very unprincipled young master.

Chen Hen opened his eyes and said nonsense: "Prince Rui's mansion is newly mourning, the son is filial, and found a few Taoist priests to read scriptures for him, and I am one of them. After reading the scriptures, the son rewarded each of us with a piece of clothing hand stove."

"Nonsense." Lin Nian said, "How can there be a hand stove in summer? And you don't look like a Taoist priest at all."

"Then what do I look like?" Chen Hen's heart skipped a beat, alas, the identity of Master Hou is still hard to hide.

Lin Nian said categorically, "You look like a poor literati who failed the exam."

Chen Hen was so angry that he wanted to get up and beat him.

Lin Nianli said confidently: "Look at your Lin Banxian's flag, which looks like a dog crawling character. If you can pass this kind of character, then..."

He suddenly felt that something was wrong, and said in shock: "You motherfucker, you didn't write letters like that when you were writing letters for the crew on board! You are a big liar!"

Chen Hen silently covered his head with the quilt.
