The remarriage of the high-ranking daughter

Chapter 76
"Don't talk too much!"

Yu Shiniang's eyes also swept over the two of them, and saw that although Qin Muli's face was normal, the worry in his eyes was obvious. She had heard the rumors about this fourth uncle, but the elder sister of the Shen family had already heard the rumors. Married as someone else's wife, there is no possibility that such two people will be together, right?
"Go back to the big ship!"

Qin Muli gave the order, and immediately someone turned the bow of the boat and sailed in another direction.

Zi Yu and Zi Yuan looked at each other, they both wanted to open their mouths to bring Chang An back, but Qin Muli's face as calm as water showed an obvious chill, no one dared to open the mouth to avoid the bad luck , and looking at the other people on board, they are all busy in their own way, as if turning a blind eye, which shows that they are strictly disciplined.

Only then did Zi Yu pay attention to observe this ship. If you say that this ship is not like a passenger ship on weekdays, it is more like a ship. The so-called ship is a strange-shaped warship. There are only two sides and standing boards, which are camouflaged to lure the enemy into jumping and drowning.

But the boat in front of me looks like a scorpion boat among ships. The scorpion boat looks like a fishing boat, with a small square bow, a wide tail and a sharp bottom, a wide tail can divert water, and a small head and a sharp bottom greatly reduce resistance. The captain is five feet long and can carry 50 people. It is the lightest and fastest type of warship.

Why did Qin Muli appear in Qujiang in a warship, Zi Yu scratched her head, puzzled.

Ziyuan pretended to be dizzy and leaned on Ziyu's shoulder. She was indeed tired. This trip was really dangerous. Going back and telling Ziyun and the two of them was another good way to talk.

Yu Shiniang naturally felt that it was inappropriate for Qin Muli to hug Chang'an like this, but she hesitated to speak. It stands to reason that although Qin Muli was not married, he should know the taboos between men and women. It is inevitable that the wife will cause people to talk about it. If people know about it in the future, will Chang'an's reputation still be lost?

But seeing that Chang'an's two personal maids didn't say anything, she also kept her mouth shut, so as not to embarrass everyone.

There was a silence on the whole boat, only the sound of water splashing on the board when the boat was moving forward, and nothing else.

Although Yu Shiniang wanted to know the whole story of Qin Muli's appearance here and the safety of the other people on the big ship, but seeing Qin Muli's appearance at this moment, she could only lower her head and let out a long sigh in her heart.

Qin Muli kept his face sullen until he boarded their so-called big ship, which was actually a large warship. Then he handed over Chang'an to Ziyu Ziyuan, and ordered them to be resettled, and then went to He asked the military doctor on board to come, and then he turned to busy with his business.

Chang An slept very deeply this time, she felt that she had not slept such a sweet sleep for a long time, the bed was very warm and soft, there was no icy cold river in her dream, only the warm sunshine, the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers made people yearn for it, Her heart was so peaceful that when she woke up, it was already the second night.

As soon as Chang An moved, Zi Yu immediately leaned over and called out, "Zi Yuan, bring your hot porridge!"

Hearing the familiar voice beside her ear, Chang An had to open her eyes, fixed her eyes on the ship deck above her head, and then turned her head to look at Zi Yu with a happy face. Are you out of danger?"

"Miss, don't you remember?"

Zi Yu nodded, supported Chang An to sit on the bed, put on a coat for her, tied it with a belt, and then said: "Last night General Qin brought people to rescue us, now we are all staying on the warship."

"Miss, use some clear porridge first, you haven't eaten all day and night, you should rest your stomach first, and then drink medicine after a rest!"

Zi Yuan had already filled a bowl of clear porridge in a porcelain bowl with broken flowers, and was sitting on the side of the bed, feeding Chang An bit by bit with a small spoon.

Chang An took a mouthful of porridge, and as soon as he swallowed it, he turned his head and asked, "I know it was Qin Muli who saved us, but what happened, what about the eldest princess and the others, and where is my father?"

"Miss, listen to the servant while eating."

After seeing Chang'an nodding, Ziyu told Chang'an what she knew, and it started with the gang of water robbers who attacked them.

This time, Qin Muli was ordered to return to Beijing to accept the task of eradicating water pirates. After spending two months, he finally finished cleaning up the Yellow Shark Gang in Hukou, Pingyang Bay.

When Shen's residence held the chrysanthemum feast, he returned to Beijing again, just to prepare food and grass for the military, and then spend time to formulate an overall strategy to wipe out the Qilin Water Village, because the Qilin Water Village that he will deal with next is far worse than the Yellow Shark Gang. tricky.

Qilin Water Village is located east of Tiger Leaping Gorge, where the terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, only by attracting this group of people can they be wiped out.

Maybe Qin Muli really thought of something with Chang'an, to force the people from Qilin Water Village to come out by himself, he also used fire attack.

The Qilin Water Village is located on the Minjiang River, so the water from the Minjiang River is naturally taken from the Minjiang River. The people in the village even dug a ditch to divert water into the village. Qin Muli then found the location of the ditch and ordered someone to block it secretly. The water source was filled with barrels of oil, and when the fire was lit, it rushed into the water village. Suddenly, the fire was raging and thick smoke billowed, which was choking.

Even if these water robbers were reluctant to part with this treasured land where they could settle down and live, they had no choice but to take their wives, children, and children to the boat for their lives.

And Qin Muli and the others had been waiting at the entrance of the water village, just in time to deal a head-on blow to the first batch of water pirates who jumped out of the water village.

Unprepared for the hasty battle, the water pirates were naturally in a panic. The boats were running around on the river, but were stopped by the officers and soldiers led by Qin Muli, and a fierce battle was about to begin.

It's also because the owner of the Qilin water village has some brains. The ships that were released first were all insignificant little guys. It was to distract Qin Muli from their ideas, and the rest of the main force escaped in the chaos. , steered the ship in another direction.

Looking back, the entire Qilin Water Village has been turned into a sea of ​​flames, and it seems that it is no longer inhabitable, and because of this reason, the pirates hated the officers and soldiers, but they didn't know that the wives who died in the sea of ​​fire were also killed in the sea of ​​fire. The son and the old mother were all annihilated in the raging fire.

This can also explain why these water robbers did not fight like this when they robbed the Yu family's cargo ship, but when they saw the official ship of the eldest princess, they set it on fire and lit explosives. It was because they hated the officers and soldiers in their hearts.

Besides, Qin Muli knew that he had been tricked into diverting the tiger away from the mountain, so he turned the bow of the boat and chased him all the way, fighting and going, from the Minjiang River to the Qujiang River.

After all, these water pirates are more familiar with the waters than they are. Seeing that they have opened up a certain distance, they started a cross-regional ship robbery business. Along the way, Qin Muli already knew that several passenger ships and merchant ships had been raped. These pirates are cunning, and it is not easy to wipe them all out.

Moreover, in the past few days, Qin Muli had already learned that the eldest princess was going to Lanzhou via Qujiang, accompanied by an official ship escort, he knew this was a good opportunity.
