In the middle of spring, the warm wind smoulders people, and thousands of sails cross the river.

Standing on the deck, Xu Qi'an watched the barges, government ships and building ships sailing slowly. The sails swelled to the limit, and he came back to last year in a trance.

However, it was in the middle of winter, and the wind from the river was like cutting. It was not as bright as spring now. Not far from the shore, there were flocks of wild ducks, which were so fat that people swallowed.

The distance is too far, I can't catch the air machine..... The Wufu system is really low. I think I'm a good six, and I can't even fly..... Xu Qi'an sighs with disappointment.

Even the lightness skill is far from being able to step on the water. It requires floating objects.

Maybe he can't float his feet on the water until he has five grades of strength.

"Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao are not here. Without the support of the old song dynasty, this road is so boring." Xu Qian sighed.

Just thinking about this, I saw an acquaintance in Indigo dress, dressed as a maid, coming to the deck.

She is 30-35 years old. She has a common beauty. She has a proud temperament between her eyes and eyebrows. She seems to come out to enjoy the warm and pleasant River breeze.

They found each other almost at the same time, the woman's face suddenly collapsed.

"Auntie, why are you here?"

Xu Qian stared at her in disbelief.

Auntie..... The woman's face twitched slightly and hummed coldly: "it's not that the enemies don't get together."

I should have thought that his ability to solve cases is first-class in the world. How can he be sent to such a case.

Chu Xianglong told her that in order to cover people's eyes and ears, and to have sufficient security forces, he chose to set out with the mission to investigate the "bloody slaughter of three thousand li".

In this case, she knew that as for who was the sponsor, she was in a bad mood and didn't bother to ask.

"Auntie, why are you here?" Xu Qi'an examined her.

"What is it to do with you?"

With a cold face, the woman threatened: "don't call me auntie in the future. Who is your superior and who is the organizer of the regiment? Call me Auntie again, and I'll let him deal with you. "

"Auntie, auntie, auntie, Auntie..." Xu Qi'an called in a voice.

This jerk..... The woman was so angry that her chest heaved. She gave him a fierce look and said, "wait for me."

She left in a huff.

......

Jiaofang department, Yingmei Pavilion.

Fuxiang wakes up when the sun is shining. She bathes and combs under the servant girl's service.

The servant girl said with a light smile, "is Mr. Xu going to leave Beijing again?"

Floating incense a Leng, slant a head, surprised looking at servant girl, "how do you know."

The servant girl pursed her lips and said with a light smile: "yesterday, the bed was shaken to the third watch. On weekdays, Mr. Xu pitied his wife, but he would never toss so late."

Fuxiang said angrily: "dead girl, more and more courage, even aunt dare to joke."

Laughing, the servant girl was surprised. Her face was very strange. She said in a trembling voice: "mother, lady... You have white hair."

Fu Xiang's smile slowly converged and said, "pull it out. What's the fuss?"

After dressing, she took away her maid and sat alone in front of the mirror, gazing at her charming face for a long time.

......

"bang!"

Chu pushed the maid in the Yamen and said, "I'm angry."

Chu Xianglong, who meditates with his knees crossed, opens his eyes and raises his eyebrows: "who?"

At this time, the woman did not show her happiness and anger, and said word by word: "silver Gong Xu Qi'an."

She has been bullied by Xu Qi'an several times. Although she has been avenged for being hit by gold, the last time she watched monk Jingsi fight in the challenge arena, she was taken advantage of by that boy.

The princess thought that she was a womanly family. She was very aggrieved and put up with it. Unexpectedly, this guy bullied her and became addicted to it. Just now, she was slandering her aunt.

Chu Xianglong frowned, "what did he do to you?"

"He offended me."

"it's not that she's too modest, but that she doesn't want to be indifferent."

Then she saw that Chu Xianglong didn't agree. Instead, she frowned. She said with a sneer, "even if I go to Beijing, I'm still a princess."

Chu Xianglong shook his head, "the princess misunderstood, that boy... Is the host of this northbound."

The princess's mouth was slightly open and her eyes were a little dull.

Chu Xianglong continued: "but don't worry. He won't be proud for long. I will punish him. After all, he is a little bit of a silver Gong, even if he is a little bit of a silver GongAs a powerful general and Deputy General of Zhenbei king, he really didn't pay much attention to ordinary honours and officials.

...

three days later, the waterway is still stable. This kind of large-scale official ship will not encounter water bandits. It is large-scale and high-grade. Anyone can see that there are big people with different identities on board.

And such a big man, often accompanied by experts and elite guards, ordinary bandits only dare to attack small merchant ships and occasionally attack small-scale government barges.

However, there is one thing that worries Xu Qian. There is abundant rainfall in spring, and the river is turbulent. It is not as calm as in winter. From time to time, there will be strong waves with the river wind.

For those who live in the cabin, it's hard, but it's not unbearable. But the imperial guards who lived at the bottom of the cabin were very sick. They had been sick for several times.

On this day, after lunch, Xu Qi'an sat in the room and breathed, "Dong Dong", and the door knocked.

Xu Qi'an, who heard the footsteps ahead of time, opened his eyes and frowned: "come in."

When the door was unlocked, it was easily pushed open. A man of short stature crossed the threshold, bowed his head and clasped his fists, saying:

"my Lord."

This short, but big enough man is Chen Xiao, the centurion of the forbidden army.

"What's the matter?" said Xu Qian

He was a little annoyed that the rude soldier didn't know how to behave and disturbed his practice.

"My Lord, many soldiers are ill. Please go and have a look." When Chen Xiao finished, he seemed afraid of Xu Qi'an's refusal. He added in an urgent voice:

"despicable duty is for fear of causing an epidemic and endangering the adults on board."

This reason attracted Xu Qi'an's attention. He immediately put on his boots and went to the bilge with Centurion Chen Xiao.

"Dong Dong..."

under the leadership of Chen Xiao, Xu Qi'an entered the cabin along the wooden steps, and a dull smell poured into his nose, smelling of sweat, mildew, ammonia and so on.

this is because the air is not circulating, but it is full of people, sleeping and excretion are at the bottom of the cabin, so bacteria are breeding, coupled with seasickness..... Weak people will fall ill.

If you're not sick, you'll look depressed.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, a pair of eyes looked over and found that it was the superior and the sponsor of the mission.

Xu Qi'an went to the bedside of a coughing and feverish taxi. The so-called bed was actually a narrow and crude wooden board, so that the cabin could hold 100 soldiers.

"It's no big deal. I have the antidote pill of Si Tianjian here. It only needs one pill to melt in the water, and everyone who is infected with the disease can be cured by drinking it."

Xu Qian made a judgment, immediately reached into his pocket, gently clasped the surface of the jade mirror, and poured out a porcelain vase.

After Di Xue recognized the master, the book had a close relationship with the master. He took things as he liked, and was not afraid of the "Hua La" dumping.

He gave Chen Xiao a detoxification pill, let him crush it, throw it into the water bag, and give it to the sick soldiers.

The effect of Si Tianjian's high-grade pills was immediate. The sick soldier was surprised to find that his lungs were no longer uncomfortable, his cough was relieved, and his mind was from lethargy to lucidity. In addition to some weakness, his physical condition was greatly changed.

"No more...

" I'm fine. "

"Thank you, my Lord. Thank you, my Lord."

The rest of the soldiers also showed a smile, looking at Xu Qi'an in the eyes of more gratitude and enthusiasm.

Xu Qian nodded slightly, then glanced at the toilet under the bed, couldn't help frowning and said, "what are you doing at the bottom of the cabin? Why don't you go to the deck to get some air. It's so smoky that you don't get sick. "

One hundred people and one hundred toilets don't often brush, which is equivalent to living in the latrine. The air is not circulating. Spring is the season of bacteria breeding. How can we not get sick.

Every day, the soldiers should be able to clean the toilet quickly, if they are not easily exposed to the wind.

"This..."

facing Xu Qian's interrogation, Chen Xiao showed a bitter expression and said: "general Chu has an order that we are not allowed to leave the bilge or go up the deck. Brothers usually eat dry food at the bottom of the cabin. "

Wen Yan, Xu Qi'an face a Shen, stare at Chen Xiao, ask a way: "why?"

"General Chu ordered that there were female dependents on board, and they often went for a walk on the deck to watch the scenery, for fear that we would offend the female dependents. If you disobey, you will be beaten with 20 sticks. "

The sick soldier said as he coughed.

Xu Qi'an didn't respond. His eyes swept the dim cabin bottom again, swept a soldier with a straight back, swept the toilet at their feet.

The damp smell in the air seemed to be 100 times stronger at this moment, which made Xu Qi'an want to escape here.

And these soldiers have to sleep here, rest here, even eat in such an environment.

Chen Xiao looks at him silently.

A hundred pairs of eyes looked at him silently.Xu Qian suddenly understood that this visit was a cover, and the real purpose was to let him preside over justice.

The indignant soldiers can no longer endure this kind of environment. At the same time, in their eyes, Xu Yinluo was the host of the mission and the official appointed by the imperial court.

They have grievances and appeals, so they can only find Xu Qi'an. They also think that only Xu Yinluo can do justice for them.

If the organizers also let them stay under the cabin and not allow them to go out, then they will give up.

"I have only one command now." Xu Qi'an frowned.

"At your command." Chen Xiao hung his head and clasped his fist.

"At your command."

The soldiers got up and bowed their heads and clasped their fists.

Xu Qi'an pointed to the deck at the top of his finger and said, "roll up and brush the toilet."

"Yes

"Thank you, my Lord. Thank you, my Lord."

"Go and wash the toilet. I can't stand the smell for a long time."

The cheers burst out.

PS: thank the leader of "l i really don't have money" for his reward. Thanks to the leader of the alliance who "hugs Antony's bud clothes".

PS: there will be more words in the next chapter.
