C188
There was still about a day's worth of time until the Azure Province's pier. Ming Yu felt that if she continued to lie down, she would not be far from becoming crippled.
Although she was thinking of Feng Dong saving her, but after sleeping with him for a day and a night, she was still a little confused. The most important thing was that she was hungry.
Ming Yu perked up her ears and after confirming that no one was going to pass, she lowered her voice and asked Feng Dong, "Young Master Feng, how much longer do we need to get to the shore?"
When no one passed by, he tried his best to avoid her and stick close to the bed, "Lady Liu can persevere a bit longer, after tonight, I reckon tomorrow afternoon will arrive. Are you hungry or thirsty, do you want me to help you get some?"
Luckily they had their own food and water, so they didn't dare to eat too much, because they had to deal with it after eating and drinking, and could only hold it in until the late night, so Ming Yu tried her best to sleep. If they fell asleep, they wouldn't be hungry, but now she couldn't hold it in anymore.
"Then, be careful. I'll just take a bite of dry rations. If Young Master Feng is hungry, I'll take a bite as well."
As a man, no matter what he said, he would not be hungry once he was hungry to a certain extent. After all, as long as he did not die of hunger, it did not matter if he ate or not. He quietly went down and took a piece of dry rations from Ming Yu's bag and gave it to her.
Ming Yu ate until the food was tasteless, then started to think about Xie Jingxi again after she gained some strength, "Young Master Feng, do you think that if we were to steal it during the night, won't they find out?"
Feng Dong frowned, "Go out? Could it be that Lady Liu is still familiar with the boat? "
"Ugh .." "Yes, there's a fellow villager, but I'm not too familiar with him. I want to go and see if he's alright."
"Lady Liu, forgive me for the advice, but if you are not familiar with this place, it is better for you not to take the risk to exit the ship. There must be someone on the boat watching over this place, if you go out now, aren't you looking for death?" Lady Liu, forgive me for the advice, but if you aren't familiar with it, it is better for you not to take the risk to exit the ship.
Ming Yu knew that she should not talk too much. At the critical moment, his brain was not as nimble as Fang Yu's, she might not even be able to fabricate a lie, but don't make him misunderstand, "Then, forget it then."
Feng Dong looked at her but did not say a word. He did not know if she was scared or hungry, but his expression seemed to be different from before.
Xie Jingxi also slept for a long time, and when she woke up, her spirits were much better. She ate a little bit of food, and started to think about how she should deal with things after the ship stopped.
For example, the one who was negotiating with her, did not sound like the one from the Abandoned Crown Prince. According to her analysis, the Abandoned Crown Prince only came to find her to vent her anger, other than that, she could not think of any other use to her for him.
For matters like venting your anger, there was no need to wait until the boat stopped to land, and he had to be polite to her. This made no sense, since this meant that there must be someone else controlling the Abandoned Crown Prince, and the one who was actually looking for her was the other party.
She looked at Fang Yu who had been protecting her the whole time, and did not close her eyes, and her heart ached, "Fang Yu, after we stop the boat, they will definitely think of ways to restrain you, and with the urgency of the situation, you must learn to yield, as long as Ming Yu and the others can leave safely, they will definitely inform our people, and if possible, leaving some clues will be good."
Fang Yu's eyes were completely red, but they were bright and full of spirit. In the dark night, she was like a dormant beast, "Madam, I understand."
When the Azure Continent's pier was about to arrive, the people on the boat woke up one after another. However, their bodies were usually weak and weak. It was a big dream, and it was hard to tell when they would wake up.
The person who spoke with Xie Jingxi the other day appeared again, and this time, she boldly and confidently entered the cabin, "Mrs. Gu, we have reached the place, when we reach the shore later, you must cooperate with us, as for this lady .." He glanced at Fang Yu who had changed into her female attire, "I will not make things difficult for her, just drink some medicine to reduce the pressure, as long as it is not a threat to us, we will not make things difficult for her."
Fang Yu kept her eyes down the entire time, she could not tell if it was anger or dissatisfaction, and had a look of "whatever you want", Xie Jingxi looked at the person who came along, "Isn't it up to you guys to say medicine? How do I know if it has some unknown effect, you guys gave it to her to drink, so can you let her go?"
The person frowned, "Mrs. Gu, this humble one has treated you courteously the entire way here, but I am not willing to take any advantage of his. This lady is too skilled, we have no choice but to be on guard, unless she dies, otherwise, we cannot let her go."
"I'll drink whatever medicine it is." Fang Yu said coldly, "I presume your master is not someone who can meet people, and is even so wary of two women."
"Hehe, you're not the only two on this ship, right?"
Fang Yu's heart was startled. Could it be that everyone else had already been discovered?
"Why didn't you say that we bought the entire boat?"
"Young lady, do you take us for fools? No more, no less, a total of five people. Do I have most of them?"
Fang Yu clenched her teeth tightly. Five of them, were actually pulled out!
He was a good hand of Gu Yun's, and he broke just like that.
Xie Jingxi's heart had already cooled down for a long time. None of the people Fang Yu had brought along had fallen into her trap, and all that was left was Ming Yu. Even if she went out, it wouldn't be a problem, because she didn't even know who she was contacting.
He could only resign himself to fate.
When the boat approached the shore, Xie Jingxi was surrounded and led along by their people, she paid attention to the shore, where the pier was filled with cargo ships, and the cargo loading area was full of business, it could be said that there were a lot of people moving everywhere, she reckoned that the people of Abandoned Crown Prince must be hiding inside, as for Song Yanchen's people, Xie Jingxi did not notice, and it was possible that they had not arrived yet.
Xie Jingxi lowered her head to look at the road, and when she was in the middle of a group of men carrying the food, she suddenly stopped, held her stomach and bent down in pain, the people behind her were extremely nervous, afraid that she was playing some tricks on them.
"It's cramping, it hurts so much .." Xie Jingxi squatted on the ground in distress, her face was drenched in cold sweat, the people behind her made it difficult for her to warn others, but the workers around her did not want to do it, "Hey! "Whose wife is she, don't run away from us, we didn't even touch her!"
The people following behind surrounded Xie Jingxi in the middle, "I'm sorry everyone, please forgive me, Hehe, our lady is going to give birth soon."
"Wandering outside when it's about to happen. Seriously, we can't explain ourselves if something happens."
Xie Jingxi stood up again and continued to walk with a pained look on her face. After she left, the man closest to her held the piece of paper she had just picked up, and quietly put away the silver inside. She then took the piece of paper and ran over to the head of the workers, "Leader, just now a woman left me a piece of paper.
"F * ck off. Go do your work. He's not blind, so for your sake, tsk .." The labourer opened the note and took a look at it, his mouth opening wide. "What? Someone wants to burn the grain boat? "
Xie Jingxi had written that someone was trying to set the boat on fire. The person who read the letter had to report it to the officials quickly, they had to ask the officials to send people to search every boat, or else the consequences would be dire.
"Motherf * cker, it's really a fake. You can't be playing with laozi, right!" He grabbed the man who gave him the paper, "Come here, tell me who gave you the paper!"
The man touched his forehead, "The one who just got off the boat, he's pretty good-looking, he seems to be a rich family's woman." The man touched his forehead, "He's the one who got off the boat, he's pretty handsome, he seems to be a rich family's woman. Chief, don't tell me you were kidnapped by bad people? We can get a lot from kidnapping a rich person's wife this year!
The worker was worried as well, wondering if he should interfere in this trivial matter. What benefits did he have and what risks did he have? Wouldn't it be unlucky if he got into trouble with some important figure that he shouldn't have?
"Hurry up and inform our people. Hurry up and leave. Even if others ask, don't leak any information. Just say that it was ordered by our boss."
"Ai ai, no, Boss, we're really not saving anyone from death. Where are the two lives?!"
The worker hardened his heart and waved his hand, "Don't be so long-winded, hurry up and go!"
That man also lost his mind, thinking to himself, you can't blame me for this, since I've done everything I can do, the two of you should pray for good fortune.
As for Ming Yu, after the boat docked, the people on the boat woke up from their dream, but no matter how foolish they were, they knew that they had met a thief, and would not dare to continue on the boat. They could only unlucky enough to get off the boat and continue on the other passenger boats, while Ming Yu was walking at the back, sneaking into Xie Jingxi's cabin when no one was paying attention to him.
Coincidentally, Feng Dong returned to his cabin to pack up. The door was opened, and with a glance he saw Ming Yu passing by. He called out to her curiously, "Lady Liu? Why haven't you left yet? "
Ming Yu awkwardly stopped her steps, why is he everywhere? This was really a narrow path for enemies, she laughed dryly and retreated, "Young Master Feng, so you actually lived here, I, let me see if my hometown group has left."
"Oh, that's great. Why don't we go back and get another boat together? We're headed in the same direction anyway, so it's not safe for you to be out alone. It's also good for you to have a companion."
Ming Yu wanted to cry, but there were no tears. She decided not to stay with him here, she would first take a look at her daughter and then talk, "About that, please wait a moment."
Ming Yu ran to Xie Jingxi's cabin, although it was not messy at all, but the luggage was left inside, this was all thanks to the person who kidnapped Xie Jingxi, he thought to herself that they had captured all of their people, so he was not afraid of her messing around with them, it was just a few sets of clothes, leaving them behind wouldn't be a problem.
Ming Yu went over to retrieve Xie Jingxi's luggage, and immediately squatted down. If it was bad, the lady must have been taken away, or else she wouldn't have thrown her luggage away, and the people inside the boat cabin beside her were also gone. They must have found out, what should he do, was she the only one left?
Ming Yu hugged his luggage and started to cry, Feng Dong who followed behind saw her squatting on the ground and wailed, thinking that something was wrong, "Lady Liu, what happened to you, did something happen to your fellow countrymen?"
Feng Dong went forward and helped her up, his eyes carefully inspecting the cabin. Suddenly, he discovered a few extremely blurry marks on the wooden wall inside the bed.
