Chu Yiqing felt relieved after using the food and water brought from Chu Han on the boat.
Yingqian was okay, but Yingrun had already turned pale with fright, and she didn't come back to her senses at the moment.
"Miss, it's so terrible. Some of those people don't have toes!" Yingrun couldn't help but feel sick at the thought.
"The mortality rate of leprosy is not high, but it can cause body ulcers, loss of sensation, paralysis, gangrene and limb deformation. There are many people who cannot bear the pain caused by leprosy and choose to commit suicide!" Chu Yiqing
He whispered, after eating a little instant noodles, he lost his appetite.
"Yingrun, please clean up!" Yingqian whispered to Yingrun.
Yingrun quickly took the dishes and chopsticks to the deck, and was about to wash them with sea water when Chu Yiqing whispered: "Let's wash them with our water, just in case!"
Yingrun responded quickly.
Seeing Yingrun going out, Yingqian stepped forward and whispered: "Miss, will they use her to do something? This slave is really uneasy!"
Chu Yiqing shook his head and whispered: "I don't know what they will ask me to do, but Li Kingdom has been established for so many years, people live and work in peace and contentment, and they have no intention of rebellion. I will never agree to their restoration."
According to the conditions, the plan for now is to leave here first!"
Yingqian nodded and said: "Yes, let's leave here first!"
The promise he had just made to White Snake and the others was just a temporary measure, but for some reason, when he thought of the lepers under the rock who were wrapped in linen and looked neither human nor ghosts, Chu Yiqing couldn't help but say no in his heart.
The taste.
After being in this other world for so long, her heart has become softer and softer!
He didn't sleep soundly that night. As soon as Chu Yiqing closed his eyes, he remembered the longing eyes of the masked woman and the cry of the mother of the dead child.
Early the next morning, Yingqian hurriedly entered the cabin door and said happily: "Miss, Mr. Diao and the others are back, there are fourteen more, not a single one is missing!"
Chu Yiqing quickly got up and walked out of the cargo hold, and saw a group of people standing on the beach. When they saw Chu Yiqing and the others, they cheered and kept wiping their tears.
"Miss Chu, Miss Chu, are you really here to save us? Miss Chu is so kind and righteous!" Boss Wu stumbled forward and knelt down with his two brothers.
When Mr. Wu knelt down, the other boatmen also knelt down.
"Get up quickly, as long as you are okay!" Chu Yiqing hurriedly stepped forward and motioned for them to get up.
Chu Yiqing looked at Diao San. Diao San seemed to avoid Chu Yiqing's eyes and stood aside without saying a word.
"Miss Chu, can we leave?" Li Dayong hurriedly stepped forward and asked, looking at the pirates with fear in his eyes, "We don't want to stay in this ghost place for a moment anymore!"
Chu Yiqing looked at Brother Hai, who nodded and waved his hand. The pirates responsible for escorting the boatmen immediately took back their weapons and took a step back.
"Your ship and the cargo on board are not missing at all, let's count them!" Brother Hai stood on the rock and shouted loudly.
Chu Yi knew why he was still in such a mood at this moment, so he quickly called the boatmen and soldiers to board the Thirteen Search Boats, and ordered them to leave immediately.
In front of the village gate, Dao Ba put his hands on his waist and watched the ship hurriedly leave Haiying Island, his eyes full of hope. I hope this Chu Yiqing is different from Hailuosha and will not abandon Haiying Island!
Watching the ship getting further and further away from Haiying Island, Chu Yiqing finally breathed a sigh of relief. She stood on the deck and finally loosened her fingers from the mast.
"Miss, we really left!" Yingqian and Yingrun said with great joy, with a touch of disbelief on their faces. Those pirates did not stop them or embarrass them, but actually let them leave. How great!
"Now is not the time to be happy. Yingqian, if you know some medical skills, go and have a look on those thirteen ships. Leprosy has an incubation period. Let everyone make some decisions!" Chu Yiqing said in a low voice.
"They don't even know that there are lepers on the island!" Suddenly, Diao San came from the back of the cabin and whispered, "If I were Miss Chu, I would never let them know about the existence of leprosy!"
Chu Yiqing looked at Diao San coldly and said in a deep voice: "Diao San, is this the guarantee you made to me? It seems that I mistrusted you!"
Diao Santuo half-knelt on the ground.
Chu Yiqing sneered: "I can't bear such a big gift from you. After returning to Chu Han, we will keep our peace!"
"Miss Chu, there is nothing Diao San can do. Diao San doesn't know that the person on the island is Hai Long. But when he encounters him, Diao San is no match for him even if he resists. What's more, Diao San is one of the four guards of the Dragon Guard Clan.
"One, I have been living an ignoble life for half my life, Diao San..." Diao San has completely put away his original unruly and ruffian spirit at this moment, half-kneeling on the ground, "Seeing the water dragon order is like meeting the clan leader, Diao San cannot disobey it!"
Chu Yiqing frowned. Everyone has their own position. Diao San followed her just for the sake of Concubine Qing. There was no master-servant relationship between her and him, so there was no need to force it.
"It's still the same sentence, after returning to Chu Han, the bridge will be the bridge and the road will be back!" Chu Yiqing said coldly. Although she understood Diao San's situation, she was merciful to those who betrayed her by not pursuing him for a long time!
"My subordinate Diao San pays homage to the princess!" Suddenly, Diao San knelt on the ground and said loudly and forcefully.
Chu Yiqing's eyes darkened: "What are you doing?"
"The Holy Ancestor has already given instructions. From now on, Diao San will be with the princess at her disposal!" Diao San clasped his fists and said respectfully, "Also, princess, I boldly remind you that the people on the ship don't know about that island at all.
There are lepers, and their food and water are clean. Hai Ye also asked people to burn herbal medicine and mix it with the water to drink with them. The chance of infection should be low, so princess, it is better for your people to check in secret. Qian
Don't alarm everyone, otherwise no one will dare to come to this sea in the future!"
Chu Yiqing frowned, but Diao San's words reminded her. Did Wu Boss and Li Dayong never know about the situation on Haiying Island?
"Yingqian, check quietly, don't alert anyone!" Chu Yiqing turned his eyes and whispered, "Remember, if there are sores or ringworm, they are neither painful nor itchy; red spots and white spots, numbness and closed sweating; tiger's mouth has no
Flesh, fingers are bent; limp on hanging legs, crooked mouth and rabbit eyes; eyebrows and hands falling off, face as if drunk; blisters on hands and feet, no pain or itching; muscle pain in limbs, unbearable pain; ulcers on the soles of the feet, which cannot be cured after long-term treatment; facial nodules, and enlarged earlobes
All symptoms must be reported!”
Yingqian nodded quickly.
Yingqian left, but Diao San still knelt in front of Chu Yiqing.
"I don't care what difficulties you have, it is a fact that you betrayed me, and now you are causing so many people on the ship to be sick, I can never keep you here!" Chu Yiqing whispered, "Leave when you get to the shore!
"
Diao San suddenly raised his head: "Princess, these boatmen are your subordinates, but what about the people on the island? They are your subjects! They have been abandoned since Princess Shura, and your mother Hai Luosha,
You abandoned the whole island for one man and ignored everyone. What flows in your body is the most sacred blood of the Water Dragon Tribe. Since you have this blood, why can't you do something for the Water Dragon Tribe?"
Chu Yiqing turned his face and looked at the sea. Now Haiying Island has become a small black spot. When he thinks of the people who have been hiding on Haiying Island forever, Chu Yiqing feels extremely uncomfortable.
"You can stay if you want, but remember, this is the only and last time you betray me. Can you do it?" Chu Yiqing turned around and asked coldly.
Diao San nodded quickly: "I promise to be loyal to the princess in the future, as long as the princess is dedicated to the Shura Dynasty and the Water Dragon Clan!"
Chu Yiqing sighed, after all, there were conditions, but now the thing she wanted Diao San to do was indeed for the Water Dragon Tribe, and apart from him, she really couldn't find a suitable candidate.
"After the sea route is clear, I will dedicate a merchant ship to transport herbs and supplies to Haiying Island. Even if they bought the 150,000 taels from me!" Chu Yiqing said coldly.
Diao Sanyi was delighted: "Thank you very much, princess!"
"You should call me Miss Chu!" Chu Yiqing said coldly. Although she doesn't know whether this decision is right or wrong, as she said, these supplies and medicines will be treated as if she did not accept the 150,000 yuan.
Two silver coins in return!
Chu Yiqing sailed on the sea for several days, but he didn't know that something big happened to Chu Han!
At the gate of Chu Han's Yamen, two guards dressed in short clothes and with a golden sheath and a broad-backed machete hanging on their waist posted a piece of imperial list at the door of the Yamen.
"Everyone, come and see, the Chu family has chosen a husband!" one of the guards shouted loudly.
This shout attracted all the people passing by, and some of the literate people read it out loud: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, now orders the Chu family to choose a husband, and requires officials to be of seventh rank or above, with a clean family background, and without
Anyone who is eligible for marriage can come and apply!"
"Oh, is this Mrs. Chu the same as Miss Chu from Wuming Town?" The person asked loudly after reading.
The guard glanced coldly and nodded.
"That Miss Chu is a beauty. We met her once when we went to Heaven and Earth for dinner last time. Her family is extremely wealthy. Now that she has received the imperial edict, the emperor has given her a matchmaker. If anyone can marry her, it will be a great joy!"
Someone squeezed in and said, but after looking at the conditions, he couldn't help but muttered: "It's a pity that people of the seventh rank are officials. How many of our Chu Han families are from the seventh rank?"
Another guard said with a smile: "You don't know. This Miss Chu is a person. Let's talk about her origin first. She was from the Duke Protector's Palace, which is now the Prince of Chu's Palace.
If that incident hadn't happened that year, she would still be a princess, so it wouldn't be too demanding to be worthy of someone above the seventh rank, right?"
"Miss Chu turns out to be a princess. I wonder why she looks so impressive! But since this little brother is a princess, why did he come to this poor place like ours? What did you say happened? What happened?
?" Someone immediately asked curiously.
The two guards just smiled and said nothing.
"Excuse me, Immortal King Tea House has invited an old storyteller to the capital. This old gentleman is knowledgeable about the past and present, and specializes in current affairs in the capital. If you are interested, please go and have a look. I guarantee that everyone will be entertained!"
A man who looked like a shopkeeper took the opportunity to stand up and said.
"You're from the capital, do you know the story of Miss Chu?" someone asked in a voice.
"Don't you know it when you go there?" the shopkeeper said mysteriously.
"Let's go and listen!" Although the people in front of the list were not qualified to participate in the husband selection, they were also curious about the story of a dignified princess who became a prisoner and was exiled to Chu Han, so they followed the shopkeeper to the fairyland.
Wang Teahouse.
When those people left, the two guards exchanged a subtle look and continued to shout loudly. The two guards and a shopkeeper continued to sing the oboe, leading those who came to see the imperial list to the teahouse next door not far away.
.
In the teahouse, an old man with a white beard stood in the lobby and was talking eloquently. When he was talking about the Guanyin Temple, two women with heavy makeup came up, both wearing transparent gauze clothes. One was holding the Yueqin in his arms, and the other was holding the Yueqin.
The pipa, silk and bamboo were played, the two people's red lips parted slightly, their voices were clear and melodious, and they sang about the wonderful spring scenery, which was indeed impressive.
On the second floor, Madam Bai was entertaining several official ladies. She couldn't help laughing when she heard the two singing: "Don't look at me because I don't understand what they are singing, but their voices are really good. They are the same as those in our capital city."
The tone is different, it’s an eye-opener to come out today!”
Several officials and ladies also laughed and praised a few words, but unexpectedly, not long after the praise was finished, the following aria began to feel a little off. A woman's expression and pronunciation gradually became more and more seductive, and her eyes moved from time to time.
She winked at the audience, and another one sang a manly tune with his eyes wide open, and teased another one. Gradually, all the women in the teahouse started whispering, and their faces turned red. The man
They listened with great interest and their eyes shone.
"What are they singing about? Why is it so weird?" Madam Bai came from the capital and could not understand Chu Han's dialect, so she turned around and asked the old lady beside her. The old lady's face changed and she whispered.
What? Mrs. Bai suddenly stood up and cursed: "Who asked them to sing these pickled praises? Aunt Zhang, send someone to find the master and have this teahouse closed!"
As soon as Madam Bai spoke, the ladies of the government all advised: "It's just a song, how can Madam Bai take it seriously? And I heard our master say that this Fairy King Tea House has a backstage. Look, the storytellers are all from the capital."
, I’m afraid there is a backstage!”
"No, did you mention this song by name? It just happens that Miss Chu wants to choose a husband. Madam Bai, can you block it here or other places?"
Baifu trembled with anger and said coldly: "Isn't this a nurturing of people? On the one hand, they are choosing a husband for Miss Chu with great fanfare, and on the other hand, they are asked to sing this kind of song. It is simply..."
An official lady who had a good relationship with Madam Bai quickly covered Madam Bai's mouth and said: "Oh, my good sister, what are you yelling about here? Your master doesn't want the black gauze hat anymore, right?"
Several officials' wives also came up to persuade us, but they all said they didn't want to listen and we should leave.
Mrs. Bai was pulled out of the teahouse.
In the inner hall of the yamen, Bai Yuanzeng also frowned. Seeing Eunuch Liu come in with his guards, he immediately stepped forward and said, "Eunuch Liu, what do you mean by the emperor? It's not that you want to find a good family for Miss Chu.
Are you married? But where did these lewd words and songs come from?"
Eunuch Liu, the father-in-law who delivered the order earlier, glanced sideways at Bai Yuanzeng and snorted coldly: "Master Bai, the Za family hasn't asked about Master Bai deliberately assigning us to Lucheng, but you do
The Zajia family is being questioned! The Zajia family chose a good family for Chu Yiqing according to the emperor's wishes, but those common people want to say, what do they want to do with the Zajia family? You mean, the Zajia family did this?
There is no enmity between the Za family and the Chu family, so what are you doing for no reason?"
Bai Yuanzeng was speechless by his question, so he could only say: "Since it has nothing to do with Eunuch Liu, I will naturally know what to do! Someone is here!" Bai Yuanzeng stepped out of the back office and stood at the door and shouted loudly.
He ordered: "Let the Immortal King's Teahouse be closed down and pass on my orders. No matter it is a teahouse, a restaurant, or a brothel, whoever dares to spread and sing these lewd words and songs will be punished for the crime of impeding moral integrity!"
"Yes, sir!" The officer quickly got the order and went to do it.
"Hey, Mr. Bai, it seems that you are quite protective of the Chu family!" Eunuch Liu sat on the main seat, lazily shook off the dust and squinted at Baiyuan Zeng and said in a strange way.
"Although Miss Chu is only a woman, what she has done to Chu Han in the past few years has been obvious to everyone. Not to mention Chu Han, the emperor has also benefited from it? Since the emperor is merciful and wants to find a good family for Miss Chu,
Then search carefully, search openly and honestly, what's going on with these underhanded tricks?" Bai Yuanzeng said coldly.
"Hmph, Mr. Bai, it seems that you have forgotten how you got this position! The Za family will tell you clearly today that this is not the emperor's will, but even if it is not the emperor's will, it is almost the same. This good family
My daughter, the emperor has directly proposed marriage for a long time. Do you see who chooses a husband according to the order? You have finally been at the feet of the world. Don’t you understand and know the things involved? We, the slaves,
, you should think of going in front of the master and doing it for him! If you insist on having your own way, the Zajia family won't be able to help you!" Eunuch Liu said angrily.
Bai Yuanzeng said in a low voice: "The lower official will not try to figure out the master's intentions. Chu Han is within the lower official's jurisdiction. You cannot do such immoral things within the lower official's jurisdiction!"
Eunuch Liu's face turned red with anger, he stamped his feet fiercely, turned around and led the guards out.
Mrs. Bai came back from outside with a lot of worries. When she heard that Bai Yuanzeng had a fight with Eunuch Liu, she asked worriedly: "What can we do? It won't implicate you, sir? But we can't let it go. Those people can sing
Although the tune is unpleasant to listen to, and although it is not mentioned by name, isn’t it talking about Miss Chu?”
Bai Yuanzeng sighed and said: "I originally thought that I would be far away from the imperial city and there would be less right and wrong, but I didn't expect that I would not be able to have peace here. Miss Chu is now at sea for two hundred boatmen. I don't know whether she is dead or alive. They are here
It’s really chilling to do something like this behind your back!”
"Isn't it cold to the heart? Even the lungs and liver are cold. When we used Miss Chu back then, we invited Miss Chu to Lucheng. Now that we don't need her anymore, we just treat her like this!" Mrs. Bai sighed, "
Miss Chu is also suffering a hard life. I heard from Mrs. Nayu today that everyone in the capital blamed Miss Chu for the Fifth Prince’s refusal to marry. It’s really hateful!”
Bai Yuanzeng sighed, couldn't help but hugged Mrs. Bai in his arms and said: "I also want to pretend that I didn't see anything or hear anything, but I really can't bear it in my conscience. Hongyu, if I am because of this,
My son offended Eunuch Liu and ruined his future. You..."
"Sir, stop talking. We were originally farmers, mud-legged people, and now we are tired from being outside for these years. If we can't do it anymore, let's go back to farm. Don't you know how to plant vegetables in a greenhouse? Just like Miss Chu.
It’s not bad to be a rich man!" Madam Bai said quickly.
"Is it the land of the king in the whole world, and the common people on the shore of the land? Look at Miss Chu, even if she hides in Chu Hanlai, she still can't escape these disturbances!" Bai Yuanzeng said decadently.
"Miss Chu is doing big things, and we are not Miss Chu!" Mrs. Bai was still full of confidence, "Anyway, whether you are an official or a farmer, I will follow you, as long as you don't dislike me!"
Bai Yuanzeng nodded and held Mrs. Bai in his arms.
Although the Immortal King Tea House was imprisoned, the obscene lyrics and songs were still circulated, especially after people gradually learned that the heroine was Chu Yiqing, known as the Goddess of Agriculture, they were widely sung.
In Wuming Town, ever since Chu Yiqing went to sea, Concubine Qing and Mrs. Huangfu would take A Bao to the dock every day, hoping that Chu Yiqing would come back quickly.
"Grandma, grandma, don't worry, mother will be back soon!" Abao pushed away Hua Lin who insisted on taking him to the beach to pick up shells, and stood confidently between Concubine Qing and Mrs. Huangfu.
He raised his little head with great effort and said confidently.
Mrs. Huangfu said happily: "People say that the little baby is Chrysostom. Ah Bao, please say a few more words!"
Abao kept saying things like that his mother would come back, which made old Mrs. Huangfu burst into tears.
Concubine Qing looked at the endless sea. She knew that Chu Yiqing would come back safely. With Diao San here, he would not let her down. But what would his identity be when he came back... Concubine Qing sighed.
"His aunt, you heard what the child said, don't sigh!" Mrs. Huangfu said quickly.
Qing Fei nodded and touched A Bao's head, "A Bao is really sensible!"
Just as he was talking, he saw Zhao Xiaomai coming out of the town, shouting loudly as he walked: "Mom, something big has happened!"
Mrs. Huangfu turned around and looked at Zhao Maimai. When Zhao Maimai came closer, she asked, "What happened?"
"Mother, the emperor wants to choose a husband for my sister. There is even a notice posted in the Yamen!" Zhao Xiaomai said anxiously, "Mother, what do you think this is going on? Why does the emperor take care of my sister's marriage?"
Mrs. Huangfu was stunned and looked back at Concubine Qing intuitively. Concubine Qing was also full of doubts, and the two of them quickly took A Bao back.
At the yamen gate, Mrs. Huangfu asked Concubine Qing to sit in the carriage and get out. She got into the crowd and saw it with her own eyes. Her body swayed, but fortunately Aunt Ju held her up.
"Miss, what's wrong with you? The emperor's decree is a great thing. Who has this honor? I see, Mr. Qi should be nervous this time!" Aunt Ju said with a smile.
Mrs. Huangfu was full of bitterness, so she could only wave her hands and return to the car to pour out the water with Qing Fei.
"Is it true?" Concubine Qing's heart skipped a beat when she saw Mrs. Huangfu lost her soul.
Mrs. Huangfu nodded, sent A Bao and Hua Lin out to follow Lei Yuan, and whispered: "Her aunt, we Ming people don't tell secrets. To be honest, I also know that with an identity like Yiqing's, there is no way to follow her."
The fifth prince is together, but the two children are good friends, so they can't be separated abruptly, right? After you came, I saw that you also liked Yiqing, so I was relieved. Originally, I thought, even if the five
The prince cannot let the matchmaker marry him, and I also decided to marry Yiqing, but why does the emperor want Yiqing to choose a husband now? And he does it with such a big fanfare, isn't it obvious that he wants to break them up? "
Concubine Qing sighed, she couldn't say anything now, she just murmured: "Yiqing, this child is suffering!"
As soon as Mrs. Huangfu heard this, she began to wipe her tears. Just as she was about to say something, she heard someone looking at the imperial list and saying, "I heard that Chu Yiqing also has a scoundrel who was imprisoned in Guanyin Temple."
She was born after someone insulted her, tsk tsk, does anyone want such a woman to marry a seventh-rank official?"
Mrs. Huangfu couldn't help it anymore, opened the curtain and cursed: "Your children are the evil ones. Which family do you belong to? I will take you to see the officials and find an adult to judge!"
When Mrs. Huangfu shouted, those people quickly lowered their heads and left in disgrace.
After Mrs. Huangfu finished shouting, she remembered A Bao. She lowered her head and looked at A Bao. Her little face was tense and her eyes were fixed on those people who were walking away.
"Ah Bao, don't listen to their nonsense, they are the evil ones. Ah Bao is your mother's baby!" Mrs. Huangfu quickly brought Ah Bao in and said.
"A Bao, be good, come to grandma!" Concubine Qing quickly picked up A Bao.
"Grandma, I want daddy, I want daddy!" Abao shouted while tugging at Concubine Qing's clothes.
Concubine Qing said quickly: "Abao, be good, don't make trouble, your father has his own affairs!"
Abao was not happy and insisted: "Grandma, I want my father, and I want my father to marry my mother!"
Mrs. Huangfu touched A Bao's head and sighed: "Poor child, even though he is young, he can see much more clearly than us! Once it became clear that this child was too stubborn and too strong, she didn't say anything, but this
In my heart, I hoped to give A Bao a stable home, but unfortunately I didn’t expect that Mr. Qi turned out to be..."
Concubine Qing held A Bao, and there was only silence.
When they arrived at the Chu Mansion, Mrs. Huangfu and Concubine Qing thought that A Bao would no longer make trouble, so they let him go into the house by himself. Who would have thought that A Bao rummaged through his treasure box for a long time and found the Prince Huang that Li Huang had given him?
Order, waved to Ade who was in the shade of the tree in front of the window, and when he entered the house, he handed the Huangwang order to Ade's hand and said: "Take this and go to Daddy, tell Daddy, let Daddy
If he comes to marry his mother, if he refuses to come, I will no longer recognize him as my father!"
