A mercenary in the world, a ruthless concubine

Chapter 153 Playing in Taihu Lake
In order to allow Gu Li to experience the local conditions and customs of this capital well, Qian Lingyu asked his servants to lift up the curtain before leaving, so that he could see the scenery outside well.Because it was early in the morning, there were not many pedestrians on the road, but the cries of vendors were endless, which made people feel much more cheerful.

Su Luo originally thought that Qian Lingyu would take them to some fun and interesting place, but in fact, it was Qian Lingyu who asked Qinglong to drive around the entire Kyoto in a carriage before heading to Taihu Lake in the south of the city.During the sightseeing, Su Luo almost fell asleep, she didn't understand why the two men beside her looked so sad, but she was so bored.

When they finally arrived at the edge of Taihu Lake, Su Luo thought that they could do some interesting things like taking a boat tour on the lake, but the two of them sat by the edge of Taihu Lake like grandfathers and started fishing.At first, when Qian Lingyu made this suggestion, Su Luo thought that Gu Li would reject it because of Gu Li's character, but unexpectedly agreed with Gu Li.

But after calming down for a while, Su Luo could understand it. As the princes of a country, both of them were under a certain amount of pressure on weekdays, and when they encountered some troubles, they would make them uneasy.Lively places may make them more irritable, while fishing and visiting these leisurely and boring things can calm them down and relieve their stress.

She doesn't know much about Gu Li, but she has slept with Qian Lingyu for more than two years, but she has never seen Qian Lingyu go fishing. Originally, he did it just to calm down.Unexpectedly, Qian Lingyu caught a fish quite exceptionally.Gu Li was naturally not to be outdone. When Su Luo asked, the two of them said in unison, "Just calm down."

Su Luo didn't understand how two big men could sit by the lake and fish like old men.Today, Qian Lingyu changed from his usual pale yellow to wearing a black outfit. For convenience, Su Luo also wore men's clothing.It's not a big deal, the problem is that Gu Li is sitting by the lake in a big deep coat today, and the hem of the clothes is spread on the ground like white roses, which is really pretty.

At this time, Gu Li was not like the prince of Yu Country at all, but like a hermit living in the mountains and forests, which made people daunting.It was really boring for Su Luo to sit on a stone on one side and watch the two fishing, and she couldn't bear to sit quietly. While slapping the surface of the water, as soon as he lowered the bamboo pole, several fish would fly up.Then he turned around and the fish were all shot down to the shore.

Although she would like to learn Qinglong's method, she doesn't know how to do light work, and she can walk on the water with ease. If she walks up, she will fall into the water before she can stand still.Soon it was noon, the breeze was gentle, and the water was calm.Gu Li and Qian Lingyu seem to have become two sculptures, except for the occasional movement of collecting fish, hanging the bait on the hook and then throwing it out, nothing else.

Qinglong, on the other hand, fished from morning to noon like practicing martial arts, and had no intention of stopping.This makes Su Luo, who is a killer, feel very emotional.Even though she was allowed to stand on land and slap the ground with such a long bamboo pole, she might not be able to last for so long.However, whether it's Qian Lingyu and Gu Li's side, or Qinglong's side.Under the "struggle" of their group, two piles of fish still alive and kicking have accumulated on the shore.Su Luo began to worry a little, whether the fish would disappear after they made such a fuss in the big Taihu Lake.

Su Luo was a little annoyed as he sat and looked at the piles of fish, but he could only touch the dagger in his sleeve with hatred.Su Luo suddenly had an idea, why couldn't she also find something to do, such as lighting a fire and roasting these fish.

As an activist, Su Luo immediately got up and got busy.Although this Taihu Lake is big, it can be seen that there are not many people coming, only some fishermen come occasionally.So there is a lot of dry firewood in the woods on the side.After Su Luo took the fish to the river and cleaned it up, he set up a fire and put the fish aside to roast.

Although there is no condiment, the smell of fish wafts out quickly.Just at this time, an old man carrying a bamboo basket came over.The old man had white hair all over his head, and the wrinkles on his face were intertwined layer by layer, as if they were cut sections of lasagna.

Seeing Su Luo in front of him, the old man was about to go around, but Su Luo stopped him when he didn't want to.Su Luo looked at the old man's puzzled eyes and said gently: "Old man, do you have salt on your body?"

Hearing that the old man didn't understand, he nodded, and when he saw this, Su Luo held back the cheers in his heart and continued to say calmly, "Then I'll exchange some fish from two bamboo baskets with you for a little salt." Although the old man didn't understand Su Luo's words, intention, but still complied.

After all, the price of one fish does not know how many fish you can buy. It is a bit unreasonable for her to exchange fish in two bamboo baskets, thinking that she is just joking.When Su Luo really put the two bamboo baskets of fish in front of the old man, the old man was so surprised that his jaw almost fell to the ground.The old man was an honest man. After giving the salt to Su Luo, he didn't want to take more. He just took a fish.

Seeing him like this, Su Luo couldn't help but feel a little moved, if ordinary people would have run away with their fish farts in their hands.Su Luo ignored the old man's evasion, and insisted on giving the old man the fish in the two bamboo baskets.Seeing that the old man was thin and weak, Su Luo was afraid he couldn't carry it, so he called Qinglong back and asked him to help deliver the things to the old man's residence.

Seeing that Su Luo was so kind, the old man was also very excited, and gave her the pepper powder on his body. He wanted to give Su Luo a small amount of rice, but was rejected. In fact, Su Luo really wanted to say that she was not short of rice. Yes, the old man is too polite.According to what the old man said, his residence is not far from here, and Qinglong should be back soon.

Why did Su Luo know that the old man had these things?The main reason is that the direction of the old man at that time was the direction of the market.At that time, she saw that the old man's bamboo building was not heavy, so she was actually just asking out of luck.Unexpectedly, the old man really had, and now he still has pepper.

While no one was around, Su Luo secretly sprinkled pepper on the three fish, and sprinkled it a lot, because the skin of the fish was already a little burnt, so you wouldn't be able to see it if you weren't very careful.After Su Luo was done, Qian Lingyu and Gu Li did not know when they appeared behind her.This made Su Luo startled.

Out of guilty conscience of having done something bad, Su Luo hesitated for a while before saying, "It's scary how you walk without making a sound." Qian Lingyu and Gu Li didn't respond to Su Luo's question.Instead, it cut directly to the topic.

"The two bamboo baskets you took away just now, and the fish caught by Qinglong on the bank, why are they gone? Don't tell me that they have all turned into a dozen or so by the fire, or were killed by you alone. Eat up such words." Gu Li also nodded in agreement, which made Su Luo ashamed, aren't these two dead enemies?Why are they so in tune today.

"I just exchanged some salt with the fish in those two bamboo baskets. As for the fish that Qinglong caught, I put them all back into Taihu Lake." Hearing this, the two people's eyes widened. I understand very well, but exchanging two bamboo baskets of fish for a little salt is really, not worth it, and there is still a pile of fish that was caught with great difficulty, so it would be a pity to let it go like this.

But Su Luo obviously didn't realize this, and expressed his dissatisfaction when he looked at the two stunned people beside him. "I said, how do you two look so heartbroken? You can't eat so much of those fish, and it's a waste to keep them there. Could it be that there's not enough for you to eat? I'm doing good deeds and accumulating virtue for you. You should be grateful Me, not the incomprehensible expression now."

Qian Lingyu and Gu Li were just regretting at first, but they didn't want Su Luo to be so excited, and they were speechless and speechless because of her words.Seeing that they shut up, Su Luo continued to play with the fish.As Su Luo thought, Qinglong came back after a while.Su Luo had already moved four stones for them to sit on. After seeing Qinglong come back, Su Luo asked them to sit down together. Originally, Qinglong was not suitable due to his status, but was forced to sit down by Su Luo.

Su Luo picked up the grilled and specially processed fish and handed them to their hands one by one.Seeing the charred fish grilled in their hands, Gu Li and Qian Lingyu asked uncertainly: "Do we really want to eat this grilled charred fish? Will it cause diarrhea?" Looking at the two men With a disgusted expression, Su Luo coughed under the drive of mischief.

"It's fine if you don't eat it, Qinglong and I will eat it." In fact, it's no wonder, after all, the two princes have been well-clothed and well-fed since childhood. Although Qian Lingyu was not welcomed by Emperor Qianao when he was a child, it may not be I have eaten this grilled fish.As for Gu Li, it goes without saying.Qinglong is in the dark guard, he has even eaten weeds, and he doesn't care about these things.

After hesitating for a while, Qian Lingyu and Gu Li finally put the grilled fish to their mouths and took a bite. Except for Su Luo, the other three blushed and rushed to the carriage together. Why? , because the water they needed was in the wagon.Seeing the three of them in a state of distress, Su Luo couldn't stop laughing while clutching his stomach.After the three of them came back with dark faces, Su Luo stopped laughing resentfully.

"Hehe, in fact, I put too much pepper in your fish just because you ignored me just now. Don't be angry, it's all right. Don't worry, the other fish only put pepper. Just a little, not spicy."
