The Qinjiang River originates from the Chaoyun River at the foot of the snow-capped mountains in the northwest and goes south all the way into Chuanyang Lake and then into the Taihua River. It almost runs through the north and south of Dachen, but Yuanjing is in the east. The master Liang Yu built a large-scale construction project and used the power of the whole country to dig a canal to connect the Bianhe River and the Qinjiang River. It took 30 years to forcefully open up an unimpeded waterway for Liang Guo.

It's a pity that Liang Yu's foresight is no match for internal and external troubles, and he himself is not a long-lived monarch. When he passed away, he was only forty-three, and he didn't have time to see the canal run through. And when the canal was completed, the state of Liang was finally in dire straits The heavy burden was destroyed by the adjacent Jin.

A hundred years later, the waters of the Qinjiang River will continue to flow, carrying the business of the Chen Kingdom on the waves, with a steady stream.

Tang Ling finally saw Qin Jiang with his own eyes. He stroked a line on the sheepskin map countless times. He finally heard the sound of the river's waves and smelled the clear water vapor. Qin Jiang was not as powerful and magnificent as the Taihua River. , but passing through the green mountains and heavy forests, accompanied by the singing of birds and beasts and the growth of clouds, it seems to have a broad mind, holding the world in its arms and inclusive of everything, so the world can be peaceful.

Tang Ling stood on the deck and looked at the scenery in front of her, filled with emotions for a moment.

Zhou and Chen have been fighting for many years, but they have never won a big victory. Tang Ling thinks that the reason is not that Chen has good iron mines and craftsmen, and has sharp and domineering weapons, nor is it because of how brave and good the Tiger Army is. The real reason is that This peaceful Qin River runs through the entire Qin River in Chen State.

Because of Qinjiang, even if the Huwei army stationed in Linjiang Mansion is only 5 people, once a war breaks out, Chen can send a large number of troops and soldiers to Linjiang Mansion and the battlefield on the banks of the Taihua River through Qinjiang. There is a steady stream of supplies, and it is possible to support the Huwei army with all the power of a country.

After several months of fierce fighting, the Great Zhou was getting more and more exhausted from the battle, and it was finally useless. That's why Tang Ling appeared here, in the hinterland of the Chen country. After a while, he would be able to arrive in Yuanjing and bow his knees to the emperor of the Chen country.

Tang Ling's hand on the railing unconsciously exerted force, as if trying to crush something.

"My lord, it's cold outside."

Tang Ling sighed unconsciously, turned around and smiled at Qing Lan: "It's just autumn, and the sun is fine, and I'm sweating all over my forehead, where's the cold? Besides, I've been lying down for two days. Come out and walk around, the arm injury is not healed, and the legs are about to be useless."

Qing Lan just wanted to say that Tang Ling's injury hadn't fully healed and she shouldn't move too much, especially the "mortal fate" on his body was abnormally heavy, which could easily affect the wound, but Tang Ling choked back before she could say anything.

"...Young Master..."

"Okay, okay, I know, my injury is serious, and my typhoid fever hasn't healed yet, hey...Qing Lan, do you know that I'm getting old by nagging like this?" Tang Ling smiled lightly and opened up with Qing Lan. made a joke.

But Qing Lan couldn't bear a little joke, and a sense of grievance immediately showed up on her face.

During the time in Chen Guo, he reminded those who were in fear every day, assassination, cold, hard work, assassination and injury, Tang Ling had wandered in front of the ghost gate several times in a month, Qing Lan used to be very good at her medical skills Confidence, even pride, but now, he is really afraid, what should he do if Tang Ling suddenly falls down and he can't recover? !He didn't dare to think about it, so he could only do everything possible to protect Tang Ling, guarding every inch of it, and it was best not to let anyone in.

Thinking of "strangers", the one that gave Qing Lan the most headache was lying on the stern of the boat, not too far away from them, and could hear them shouting, but it was two feet away, as if waiting for Tang Ling to walk over Seems like.

Tang Ling obviously also saw Qi Xiao, she turned her body slightly and thought about him.

"Sir, let's go back?" Seeing that Tang Ling seemed to want to go over, Qing Lan hurriedly dragged Tang Ling back to the cabin.

Tang Ling kept looking at Qi Xiao with reassurance, and said softly to Qing Lan, "Go back first."

"My lord..." Qing Lan wanted to say something, but Tang Ling had already walked towards Qi Xiao.

Qi Xiao sat down on the stern deck, leaning against the railing, with his head up, letting the wind blow and spray the water vapor on his face, it must have been pleasant, but when Tang Ling approached, he realized that his complexion was not good, and his brows were also frowned. with.

"My lord."

Hearing Tang Ling's voice, Qi Xiao opened his eyes slightly, and squinted at Tang Ling: "Yeah."

"What's wrong with the lord?" Qi Xiao's indifferent attitude seemed to be unwilling to talk to Tang Ling, but his face seemed to be sick, so Tang Ling didn't turn around and leave, but asked one more question.

Qi Xiao closed his eyes, didn't even bother to move, he hesitated: "Well, what's the matter?"

Qi Xiao is usually arrogant, domineering, rebellious, and arrogant. It is perfectly normal for him to be arrogant.

When facing Tang Ling, most of them had a sly smile on their faces, and there was a lot of teasing and teasing in their words. They were not very polite, as if they were deliberately trying to annoy people.

Or when Qi Xiao held the sword to kill someone, the blade was sharp, and his whole body was wrapped in awe and ruthlessness.

But Tang Ling had never seen Qi Xiao look so weak.

"Isn't the prince seasick?"

Qi Xiao raised his eyelids again to look at Tang Ling, frowned and beckoned at him lightly, motioning Tang Ling to stand beside him.

Tang Ling followed Qi Xiao's intentions and moved a step, standing beside him at an angle that just covered Qi Xiao's head from the sunlight.

Satisfied, Qi Xiao stretched his brows slightly, raised his face and asked Tang Ling, "Is Zi Yi healed? What can I do?"

Of course, Qi Xiao would not admit that he was seasick. He could draw a bow and swing a knife on horseback like an eagle soaring in the air with ease, but when he got on the boat, he would get dizzy when the wind blows and the waves beat.

He still remembers that when King Feng left Beijing at the age of ten, he also took the Qinjiang waterway. He started to vomit from the moment he got on the boat, and he vomited until he became unconscious, and he didn't recover his life until his feet hit the ground.

More than six years later, Qin Jiang is still the same Qin Jiang back then, and Qi Xiao is still the same kid back then, no matter how old he is or how good his physique is, he vomits and vomits, dizzy and dizzy, but now The old Qi Xiao needs more face, and must not show weakness in front of Tang Ling, a sick child.

"If you're really uncomfortable, let Qing Lan take a look? He should have medicine for seasickness."

Qi Xiao smiled crookedly: "It's okay.

It's fine to blow dry outside. "

Tang Ling also laughed, hiding in the shadows, a little blurry, or maybe Qi Xiao was so dizzy that she couldn't see anything clearly.

"Then I'll stand here and cover you from the sun."

Qi Xiao frowned when he heard what Tang Ling said. Didn't he understand what Tang Ling meant, did he want to accompany him on the deck?Seasickness seemed to knock his soul out of his body, and there was only water left in his head, which swayed violently.

Looking at the confused expression on Qi Xiao's face, Tang Ling couldn't hold back the smile on his mouth. It was the first time he saw that Qi Xiao had the childishness of a young man, a little cute and cute.

"It's a long way to go. Take care of your injury. If something happens again, don't expect me to save you."

"Oh...it turns out that the King of Chu is not only seasick but also can't swim."

Hearing these words, Qi Xiao was a little harsh, the two of them seemed to have switched positions suddenly, and Tang Ling was looking at him and making fun of him.

"So Ziyi came here specially to see my jokes?"

Tang Ling shook her head: "After arriving in Chen, either you encountered a thrilling and dangerous incident like an assassination, or you were recuperating from your injuries. It was boring to lie down all day, and there was nowhere to move around on the boat, so I thought that if you were free, you could Play a game of chess to kill some time."

Qi Xiao waved his hand lightly: "Sorry, I won't accompany you."

"It's ok."

After Tang Ling finished speaking, she still stood in the distance, leaning against the railing, she took off the weight of "Chen Yuan", and stood beside Qi Xiao.

Qi Xiao rubbed his forehead: "Are you still leaving?"

"I blow the hair too."

Qi Xiao sighed, and stopped talking to Tang Ling, and just stood by his side, so he wouldn't be so exposed to the sun.

But it didn't last long for the two of them to stand and sit together in silence. Zong Sheng came out of the cabin and walked straight towards the two of them.

"Father."

Qi Xiao stretched out his hand: "Give me a hand."

Zong Sheng pulled Qi Xiao up, Qi Xiao flicked his sleeves to wipe off the moisture, and strode into the cabin with big strides. Zong Sheng followed behind, and only after he was out of Tang Ling's sight did he whisper, "Fenglin Mountain has a letter."

"Ah."

The boat was rented by Baixi Bridge, and it is not as spacious and comfortable as the official boat. Qi Xiao’s room is the best, but the room is limited, and it is not even as good as the post house in Lanquan Town. But Qi Xiao is not picky. All boats are dizzy, no difference.

The windows of the room are wide open, and the ventilation is good, so it is not too stuffy after all.

Qi Xiao's swift eagle came in through the window, landed on the hanger beside Qi Xiao's bed, stepped on Qi Xiao's brocade robe several times, and left several claw marks on the brand new robe.

Qi Xiao originally wanted to lie down on the bed, but when he saw Xun Ying, he endured the pain and went to feed the eagle first, while asking Zong Sheng: "What's wrong with Fenglin Mountain?"

"Following the clues of Xi Zuo, Yue Zhilin found a hideout of Qi Guo Xi Zuo in Fenglin Mountain, but he didn't dare to dictate the matter in Yuanzhou Mansion, so he told the matter to Nie Guangli, the prefect of Yuanzhou, and at the same time secretly went to Beijing."

"Oh, Nie Guangli?" Qi Xiao sneered, "The bamboo basket fetched water in vain.

forget it. "

Zong Sheng nodded: "Nie Guangli sent officials from the government office to suppress them. They beat the grass and startled the snakes. When they arrived, they went to the empty buildings and found nothing useful."

"This is also expected, it doesn't matter.

This time Yue Zhilin has made great contributions, maybe they will be able to meet each other in Yuanjing by fate. "

"Grandfather wants to use him?"

Qi Xiao didn't answer, but instead asked, "Where's Baixi Bridge?"

"Bow fishing."

Qi Xiao closed his eyes and murmured, "I'll sleep for a while."

On the other end, Tang Ling also returned to her room. The window was open when she left, but it was closed when she came back.

Tang Ling gave Qing Lan a wink, Qing Lan nodded slightly, retreated, and guarded the door cautiously.

The room about the size of a dried bean curd is a bit bigger, and Ye Huai can hide in it, walking quietly like a cat.

"Son."

"How's your injury?" For so many days, Tang Ling had almost no chance to speak to Ye Huai. Qing Lan had already told Tang Ling about Ye Huai's injury in detail, but Tang Ling still couldn't help asking.

"Young master, don't worry, it's all right, he's recovered."

Tang Ling nodded, but her brows were frowning. Ye Huai's injury was not serious, how could it take a few days for it to heal?Qing Lan said that she would have to take care of her for at least a month, but since Ye Huai said nothing happened, Tang Ling stopped asking, and just said, "Okay.

Watch out for yourself. "

"Young Master, Yuan Jing has contacted you."

"So fast? I thought there was another accident in Lanquan Town on the Qinjiang River, and Su Qin was in such a hurry that he might not be able to get in touch."

Ye Huai said: "It's on the pier, I almost missed it.

The carriage can't get on the boat and I have to sell it on the spot, so I can be free. "

"how?"

"When we disembark at Qihuai, there will be someone to meet him, and he will definitely be able to protect you and enter Yuanjing."

Not only did Tang Ling not relax her brows, she even shook her head: "I'm not worried about myself, but about Yuan Jing's situation.

It's also my fault that I didn't live up to my expectations. I got a high fever after a small injury, and I got on the boat in a daze. I didn't have time to tell you. When I got to Qihuai, I told them to carefully inquire about the situation in the court, and pay attention to the movement of Fenglin Mountain and the west. Know whether to send troops to Yuanzhou Mansion. "

"it is good."
