After the marriage, the sick and weak husband fell off the horse

Before Sheng Jiajun left, Fang Fangfu told him again, "Remember, every big ship must prepare three more clippers."

Sheng Jiajun only felt strange about the inexplicable request for a house gift.

Why bring so many ships?

Will he encounter pirates this time when he goes to sea?

The more Sheng Jiajun thought about it, the more likely it was that pirates had appeared frequently in coastal areas recently, harassing coastal residents. After they came ashore, they burned, killed, and looted. As soon as the officers and soldiers arrived, they would immediately escape in boats, which was very troublesome.

This is also the reason why Shengguo's national strength far exceeds that of the two countries, but it has not sent troops to attack the two countries.

Their national policy in recent years is to first build ships and train their navy to completely defeat the pirates at sea, so that they dare not invade the Sheng Kingdom again. When the sea is peaceful, they will send troops south to conquer the two countries.

It's just that training the navy costs a lot of money, and now the Sheng Kingdom's treasury is overwhelmed.

After Sheng Jiajun returned home, he immediately ordered his subordinates to bring more elite soldiers and prepare sufficient weapons for this trip.

The dangers encountered when going to sea are either natural disasters or man-made disasters.

If there is a house that can tell the weather for him, natural disasters can be avoided, but the remaining disaster is rampant pirates on the sea.

Xie Chunchao sent as many people around him as possible in the name of sending letters.

It's just that in addition to the guards and retinue, she brought a lot of property and items with her this time.

Xie Chunchao thought for a while and simply let the convoy leave first in an open and honest manner.

When Sheng Jiajun inquired, she only said that she had stayed in Sheng Kingdom for too long and that she should go to Xia Kingdom as soon as possible.

After the trip to the island is over, she will leave. However, the many things she brought are too cumbersome and walking will be very slow with them. It is better to let the luggage go first, and then she can catch up with them lightly, which will also save time.

After hearing this, Sheng Jiajun did not become suspicious, but asked out of curiosity, "Why are you so anxious, sister?"

Xie Chunchao held his chin and said, "Everyone in the world knows that the princes of the two countries proposed to Chu. I can't keep nagging and scolding."

Ever since she proposed to go to the two countries in midsummer before making a decision, there has been a lot of discussion among the people. Some people supported her, but others felt that Xie Chunchao, as a princess of a country, was flamboyant outside, had frequent contact with foreign men, and did not abide by women's ethics.

Xie Chunchao knew that many people scolded her, and some even wrote poems and articles angrily criticizing her actions.

Xie Chunchao has also read some of the excellent works that criticized her. Among other things, some of them have quite good literary talents.

It's a pity that he has such literary talent but he doesn't use it in the right way. He stares at her and writes curse words all day long.

Sheng Jiajun also knew this, and comforted him, "No matter what you do, there will always be people who are dissatisfied, so why change your behavior to suit their wishes?"

These words were clear and sensible, but looking back at Sheng Jiajun's daily behavior, it was really not like what he could say.

After he said this, he immediately said angrily, "But these people have nothing to do all day long, so they can spare the time to write articles and scold you. I have long ordered the officials of Shengguo to arrest anyone who makes such remarks. Work hard for a few days and see if he can still speak with his mouth."

Xie Chunchao chuckled and said, "You don't have to spend so much time on me."

"But..." Xie Chunchao asked with some curiosity, "I found that you have a very high reputation among the people. Even if you stabbed your brother in the street, no one would say you were cruel, but would praise you instead."

"What have you done to make the people of Sheng Guo love you so much?"

Sheng Jiajun just chuckled and then said, "Our Sheng country is a bit magical, it is open and conservative."

In the past few days in Shengguo, Xie Chunchao was not only very familiar with the customs of Shengguo, but he also had a general understanding.

The State of Sheng was not as strict about women as the State of Chu. Women in Sheng State could be seen everywhere on the streets. They were hawkers or shopkeepers, and there were even female officials in the court.

Divorce is a very common thing here, and no one would blame the woman. Even at the beach, there are women wearing cool clothes, but at the same time, Sheng people are very superstitious.

Perhaps it was because it was close to the sea. Everyone in the Sheng Kingdom worshiped the Poseidon very much, and this Poseidon was also a goddess.

Perhaps this is also the reason why men in Sheng Kingdom respect women.

In Xie Chunchao's inherent concept, this is a strange thing no matter how you look at it. It stands to reason that the more superstitious a place is, the more oppressive it will be to women, but Sheng Guo did the opposite.

Perhaps it was because Sheng Guo was too superstitious that the current situation was caused.

"A large part of the reason why I have such a reputation among the people is because I was born with an abnormality and fell into a prophecy that has been circulated in our prosperous country for hundreds of years."

"So no matter what I do, people in Shengguo will think that I am the child of the Goddess of the Sea, a god sent to save them."

"Everything I do is right and has a reason."

"If I kill people, they will only think that there must be something wrong with that person."

Xie Chunchao understood that in the eyes of Sheng people, Sheng Jiajun was not only the prince, but also the god they believed in.

They firmly believe that this legendary prince must be the god who can save them from suffering.

Xie Chunchao was stunned for a long time and then said, "It's like this. This is really unexpected."

It was unexpected at first, but it doesn't seem strange after thinking about it.

It can only be abnormal fanatical worship, otherwise how could the people believe in a person so abnormally?

Sheng Jiajun smiled slyly and said, "I was quite troubled by this when I was young. No matter what I did, no one blamed me. Instead, they all praised me."

"I just deliberately did some annoying things so that people would scold me, but they didn't."

"Everyone still tolerates what I do and takes the initiative to find reasons for me. No matter how I explain, they refuse to listen."

When Sheng Jiajun talked about this, he smiled slightly with his eyes slightly raised, but there was always some incomprehensible emotion in his eyes, "Then I thought about it."

Have you really thought about it?

Xie Chunchao looked into his eyes and felt that he might not have let go of this matter yet.

Thinking about it carefully, she didn't have a clear reply to his overtures, and she always rejected him and rejected his good intentions.

This is unbearable shame and pain for ordinary people, but for him, will it be a rare joy?

Like a child who lives with blame and seeks praise?

Xie Chunchao suddenly raised his hand and hit Sheng Jiajun on the arm and asked, "Will you be happy if I treat you like this?"

Sheng Jiajun raised his eyebrows and asked, "What do you mean?"

Xie Chunchao smiled and said, "Didn't you say that when you were a child, you always wanted everyone to scold you?"

"You don't like me because I always reject you, right?"

Sheng Jiajun did not answer her question clearly. He just raised his lips and smiled and said, "Sister, I am not a child now."

"Does my sister still like her favorite toy when she was three years old?"
