Red Mansion, Ningfu Scholarly Family

Chapter 307 My lifeblood...

……

"My Lord, shall we sail now?"

Mu Feng nodded: "Go ahead, speed up."

This morning, especially after that erotic dream, he no longer had that uneasy feeling.

It seems that I was worrying too much yesterday.

But there is an extra expectation in my heart.

Go back early to see what your sister-in-law looks like...

Soon the night fell on the second day. This time, Mu Feng did not order the boat to dock. Instead, he hung up the signboard of Nan'an Palace and continued sailing.

It takes twice as long to travel day and night.

Returning like an arrow!

……

Bottom of the cabin.

Because the prince relaxed his vigilance, the guards naturally relaxed as well, leaving only one person to guard the boatman, who was drowsy and dozing off.

"Oh!"

The guard was hit hard on the back of his head without any warning and fell sideways.

If he doesn't die, he will have a concussion.

"Everyone, let's get started!"

"okay."

After a few people tinkered with it for a while, the mechanism on the bottom of the boat started up, and water was bubbling out.

Soon the bottom of the boat was full.

There is no possibility of blocking it at all.

The captain said solemnly: "We should not stay here for long. Get ready and go aboard."

"Yes!"

Everyone picked up sticks.

There is definitely no sword or knife, only the one in the captain's hand... and the one in the guard's hand just now.

"go!"

The captain kicked the door open and strode in.

The guard standing outside the door was stabbed in the neck before he could understand what was happening.

"What are you doing!"

The guards on board were still alarmed, especially since the boat was already slightly tilted at this time. If they didn't know what was wrong, they would not be guards, but fools.

"Sir, the bottom of the boat is leaking. Let's run quickly. If we don't run now, we will be buried at the bottom of the river." The captain shouted loudly.

"What, you guys..."

"Be careful……"

"what……"

Mu Feng, who was wandering in the void, suddenly sat up with a start. The guards outside the door were knocking on the window frantically: "Oh no, my lord, something bad has happened. The boat is leaking and will sink soon..."

"Fuck down!"

Mu Feng cursed inwardly, he could already feel the ship gradually tilting.

"Hurry, come and protect me!" Mu Feng quickly opened the doors and windows and shouted.

"Yes!"

The few remaining guards hurriedly surrounded Mu Feng.

"Why are there only a few of you? Where are those people?" Mu Feng asked with gritted teeth when he saw that there were only a few people around him.

"Your Highness, they are plugging the hole down there. It was done by those boatmen!" a guard said gritting his teeth.

Mu Feng no longer cared about who did it. He was more concerned about how to survive.

"Is there a spare boat?"

Usually, large buildings like this have spare boats on top that can be used in times of distress, but this boat...

"My Lord, no."

"You bastards, how did you check it?" Mu Feng jumped up and pointed at them and cursed.

Everyone lowered their heads and did not dare to speak.

They were so busy checking for leaks that they paid no attention to the spare boat.

Mu Feng wanted to kill all these people, but now was not the right time.

"Who among you can swim?"

"My lord, I will be there." An unprepossessing guard stepped out from behind.

Mu Feng was overjoyed.

"Okay, take me to the shore!"

The guard hurriedly said, "Don't worry, my lord. I will definitely take you there safely."

Mu Feng didn't have the heart to pay attention to other people at this time. Most of the boat had sunk and it was impossible to block it. If he waited any longer, he would only be eaten by the fish.

"Let's go!"

"Yes!"

The guard grabbed Mu Feng and jumped into the river. The others who could swim followed suit, while those who couldn't swim just grabbed a piece of wood on the boat and jumped down.

It was the end of May, and the water on the river surface was slightly warm. Mu Feng breathed a sigh of relief while holding on tightly to the swimming guard. Suddenly...

"My Lord, I'm sorry."

Halfway through the swim with Mu Feng, the guard suddenly said something.

Mu Feng immediately realized the danger!
There's something wrong with this guard!

"what!"

Mu Feng bit off the guard's ear without hesitation. The guard stabbed Mu Feng's stomach with the dagger in his hand, but Mu Feng was wearing some kind of inner armor, so the knife couldn't penetrate at all.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

Several guards nearby heard Mu Feng's exclamation and swam over here.

"Come and protect me, this is an assassin!"

Mu Feng hugged the guard tightly and said this, feeling even more frightened in his heart. If he had not been wearing self-defense inner armor, he would have been finished by now.

Although the guard still had the knife in his hand, he couldn't stab it in and was held tightly. In desperation, a fierce light flashed in his eyes and he stabbed downwards with the knife!

"what!"

Mu Feng screamed.

It’s over. My life!
"Your Majesty!"

In a flash, several swimming guards gathered together like crazy and dragged the prince to the riverside.

As for the guards who committed the crime… I don’t have the energy to pay attention to them for the time being.

……

Kyoto, Ningguo Mansion.

"Rong'er, I heard that you are going to Southeast Asia?" Xichun stared at Jia Rong with a bad look.

"Aunt, who told you that?"

"Don't worry about who said it, I just want to ask you if it's true!"

Jia Rong knew that he could no longer hide it, so he simply admitted, "I will go there, but not now. I will go in a few months."

Xichun curled her lips and said, "What's so fun in Nanyang? Isn't it better for you to stay at home with us?"

"Aunt," Jia Rong said helplessly, "I want to stay with you all the time, but a man should always do something. You don't want to be a useless person like Baoyu, do you?"

"Pfft."

Xichun pursed her lips and smiled, feeling that Jia Rong was right in calling Baoyu an embroidered pillow.

"Okay then, but why do we have to go to Nanyang? Grandpa is in Jinling, why don't you go to Jinling too?"

Jia Rong said seriously, "Jinling has the protection of the master, so I will never grow up. Besides, there are people in Nanyang, Second Uncle Lian, Xue Ke, and Jia Yun are all there. I just want to take a look and gain some experience."

"Then, can you take me with you too..." Xichun lowered her head and began to rub the corner of her clothes.

"Absolutely not."

Jia Rong refused without even thinking about it.

"But you said you would take us to Jiangnan for fun!" Xichun pouted, looking very unhappy.

Jia Rong smiled and said, "That's right. When I come back from Southeast Asia, I will definitely take you to visit Jinling."

"Then when will you come back?"

"It's hard to say, but I will try to come back as early as possible." Jia Rong quickly assured.

"Humph!"

Xichun was still a little unhappy.

"Good aunt!" Seeing this, Jia Rong took out his trump card and whispered something in Xichun's ear.

"Really?"

Xichun's eyes immediately lit up.

Jia Rong smiled faintly: "Of course."

Xichun: "It's settled."

Jia Rong: "A gentleman's word is his bond!"

Xichun smiled brightly: "Okay, go ahead, but be sure to take care of yourself and think of me all the time when you get there..."

Finally, my aunt is safe and sound.

Lin Daiyu is easy to talk to, and a novel should be able to coax her into submission.

As for Sister Baoqin, it was even simpler. Her brother was still there and had no reason to object to her going to Southeast Asia.

……

Lin House.

Lin Daiyu took the novel written by Jia Rong and smiled gently.

Rong Ge'er is really thoughtful.

He even took the initiative to write a novel for her.

Just after opening a page, Lin Daiyu suddenly found a piece of letter.

After a while, he let out a deep sigh.

I picked up my pen and wrote a reply.
