The river surface is undulating, and sails often float across the window.

The Xiao family's boat is Xiao Qi's special car. It doesn't look silly from the outside. It's similar to an ordinary small merchant ship. There are no places to visit. Apart from Xiao Qi's residence, there are only a few rooms left.

This world is very boring to travel by boat. The cold wind blows, and it is impossible to enjoy the scenery. Everyone sat in the house in a daze.

Xiao Ting yelled that he had not woken up all morning. As soon as he got on the boat, he was punished by Miss Xiao to copy books because his left foot stepped into the cabin. The door was locked and occasionally made a few noises, "Auntie, I'm wrong... Xu Buling, you're saving..."

In the room on the bank, Mrs. Lu sat on the carved soft collapse, with her knees embroidered robe, and she was a little impatient when she covered her ears:

"Ling'er, go and clean up Xiao Ting, it's annoying to make people quarrel..."

Mrs. Lu was born in Jiangnan and has not returned to her hometown for a long time. She is about to arrive at her parents' home. She is not as psychologically burdened as Xiang'er. She is in a very good mood. The action of covering her ears actually reveals the naughty expression she was when she was "little sour radish".

Xu Buling sat next to him and drank tea, turned a deaf ear to Xiao Ting's shouts, and said casually:

"He has always been like this, and he forgot about cleaning up for an afternoon."

Mrs. Lu knew Xiao Ting's temperament and snorted lightly at this: "Xiao Qi and Xiao Xiang are both smart people, why are Xiao Ting so stupid? Fortunately, it's not my nephew." As she said that, she picked up her robe and continued to embroider her, with a smile on her lips:

"Ling'er, I naturally believe it when you said that Xiao Qi deliberately seduces you last time. Xiao Qi dares to use this method and must still want to agree to the marriage. You have to work harder this time when you go back. If you try to take Xiao Qi back, you will take Xiao Qi back to Suzhou. With a virtuous support like Xiao Qi, I don't have to stare at you all day..."

Facing this difficult-to-know proposition, Xu Buling chuckled and said, "Xiao Qi is very sensible, but when it comes to family management, she is definitely not as good as Aunt Lu. The male protagonist is outside and the female protagonist is inside. When she enters my Xu family's door in the future, she has to obey Aunt Lu's arrangements."

“…”

Mrs. Lu paused slightly in her hand, and after a while, she replied: "No, nonsense... She is going to be a princess, and what I am in charge of, it has nothing to do with you..." That's right, her eyebrows and eyes were obviously satisfied.

There is nothing to do on the boat, and there is only one Mrs. Lu who can enjoy the eyes except drinking tea.

Xu Buling looked at Mrs. Lu's embroidery and sat for a long time and thought about it, put down the teacup, raised his hand and pressed Mrs. Lu's shoulders, gently rubbed and pressed it a few times: "Aunt Lu, are you tired of sitting for so long? I'll press your shoulders for you..."

Mrs. Lu's body stiffened and she twisted her shoulders slightly, obviously trying to avoid it. "I am your aunt" was about to come out, but for some reason, she was a little embarrassed to shout now.

Xu Buling curled the corners of his mouth. Seeing that Aunt Lu was in a good mood and had no intention of resisting, he rubbed and pressed it for a while, and then slid his hands down his waist and back, gradually reaching his ribs, and quietly supported him.

After all, Mrs. Lu was not Ning Yuhe. After a while, she endured it for a while. Seeing that Xu Buling was still excited, she picked up the embroidery needle and wanted to poke it. She frowned and said, "Let me find Xiao Qi... I'm not tired, don't bother Aunt."

Xu Buling stopped with unsatisfactory intentions. Seeing that Mrs. Lu’s face turned red, she could have something to do, so she stood up and said goodbye and came to Xiao Qi’s room.

------

The cabin was very quiet. Except for Xiao Ting yelling from time to time, the maids were sitting in the room waiting to give orders.

Xiao Qi is the helm of the Xiao family. Her position forced her to become a workaholic and a strong woman. She has a relatively strong personality. Although she has never been too harsh to the maid, her aura is there, and even the Nightingale is a little nervous and hides on the other side of the ship to practice martial arts.

At this time, in the corridor, Lanhua, a maid who was taller than Xu Buling, was leaning against Xiao Ting's room door with her arms in her arms, so as not to send Xiao Ting's close-fitting maid to Xiao Ting's melon seed snacks.

Xu Buling walked to Xiao Qi's study room. In winter, the boat was a little damp. In order to prevent the ventilation door from being closed, there was a brass stove inside. The decoration of the study room was not much different from that of Linhe Villa, and there were no other items except the bookshelf and desk.

Xiao Qi, who always wears a simple black dress, sat straight behind the desk, looking at the recent account books of Jinling Industry. As the number one family of Dayue, Huainan Xiao Family cannot have only one small village. If you don’t read the booklets, you may not remember that it is your own. These industries are usually managed by uncles and uncles from the Xiao family’s houses. Xiao Qi comes here to take a look.

"Miss Xiao?"

"Come in."

Xiao Qi turned the account book in her hand over a page, but did not look up. The neat and solemn furnishings were combined with a serious expression. Her eyes were like autumn water and her eyebrows were like willow leaves, which had a somewhat different beauty.

Xu Buling has long been used to being lukewarm to Xiao Qi. After all, this is the character. Last time Xiao Qi used the beauty trick, he realized that there were women wearing black underwear in this world. This alone could roughly look at his personality.

Xu Buling closed the door, walked to the opposite side of the desk, dragged the Master Zhang to sit down, his posture was cold and extraordinary, and he looked at Xiao Qi's face.

Xiao Qi looked up and looked at the account book again, and said softly:

"You ruined my innocence, I will take revenge on you once, and you and I will clear you and I will pretend that nothing happened before."

Although his tone was calm and unrest, Xu Buling began to explain what happened last time before he spoke. He was obviously afraid that Xu Buling would throw his fortune.

Xu Bure laughed secretly in his heart, so he naturally didn't say anything about it, and instead said:

"The King of Wu invited me to the banquet and would definitely find a way to ask for a jade pendant from me. The remaining four jade artifacts must be in the hands of the King of Wu. What clues can you find recently?"

Seeing Xu Buling talking about the serious matters, Xiao Qi finally felt a little relieved. She closed the account book, got up and walked to the window, picked up the teapot and poured two cups of tea:

"I checked the files within the clan. When the war god Zuo Zhe first founded the country for the Great Qi, my ancestors of the Xiao family served as military advisors for him..."

Xu Buling couldn't help but sigh when he heard this opening remark. Zuo Zhexian was a person more than 300 years ago. Three hundred years ago, the ancestors of the Xu family were probably still playing in a remote village. The ancestors of the Song family were still a down-and-out nobleman who had tightened their belts to live. A light sentence showed the essence of the first family of Dayue.

The Xu family has only been developed for three generations, and in the eyes of a family family, it is a standard nouveau riche. Xu Buling married the legitimate daughter of an old noble like the Xiao family. Strictly speaking, it is Xiao Qi who married her under the bride.

However, Xiao Qi had already given Xu Buling his body, and it would be meaningless to pay attention to his identity. This sentence is just about the matter.

"...A record was left at home at that time. Zuo Zhexian did give four jade artifacts to four personal disciples. At that time, Zuo Zhexian was not dead and did not write a military book or experience in martial arts practice, so it is definitely not as rumored in the world that the "Tongtian Treasure Book" is recorded...

... According to records, Zuo Zhexian was originally a hermit. When the Great Qi clan was pacifying the world, he retired for a while and no one could find him. Later, Emperor Qi could not hold on to the government and the major generals, so the four disciples invited Zuo Zhexian back... It is logical that it would be enough to ask Zuo Zhe to return to the court first, but at that time, four people from all over the world went together. Could it be that the four of them worked together to find Zuo Zhexian?"

After listening, Xu Buling Anjing thought: "What do you mean is that Zuo Zhe has a hiding place first, no one can find it. Those four jade artifacts record clues that can be found, which is equivalent to the key of the safe?"

"Safe?"

"Uh... it's the location and key of the secret warehouse."

Xiao Qi was tall and leaned against the desk, pondered for a moment, and nodded slightly: "It's possible, but it's too long, and Zuo Zhexian had already died. We definitely can't guess what was put in the hiding place."

"Then let's go to the King of Wu's Mansion to see the situation."

Xu Buling finished his serious matter, held the teacup and stopped talking, and glanced at Xiao Qi's figure.

This gaze was obviously a bit presumptuous. Xiao Qi was thinking about something, but when she realized that Xu Buling's mind was impure, her expression slightly condensed, she stood up straight and walked behind the desk.

I never thought that as soon as I took two steps, I felt my whole body tightening. There was no movement behind me, but I was hugged in my arms.

"Woo—"

Xiao Qibo's eyes were confused, and she turned around hard, raised her cheeks and looked at Xu Buling, who was so close to her, like a frightened wild cat:

"Xu Buling, you are arrogant..."

Xu Buling's eyes were calm, and he hugged Xiao Qi's waist and said softly: "There was someone in the house a few days ago. I apologize to you while there was no one disturbing me. I really didn't recognize you in Chang'an, and the next day I was also helpless..."

She was wrapped in a manly breath, and Xiao Qi's expression was as firm as ever, but her legs under her skirt trembled involuntarily. The scenes of that night poured into her mind uncontrollably. She gently pushed Xu Buling's chest:

"I know, I didn't blame you...let me go..."

Xu Buling didn't let go, with a little doubt: "I didn't recognize it at that time, but how could Miss Xiao cooperate so much? As long as you resist a little, I can feel it... In the end, you not only didn't resist, but later you played crazy than the baby..."

"Shut up."

Xiao Qi was also called baby last time, so she naturally understood what Xu Buling said. Her eyelashes trembled slightly and tried to say in a calm tone:

"I was drunk at that time and thought you were a goblin turned into wood...what do you want to say?"

Xu Buling's eyes focused and stared at Xiao Qi's eyes:

"I'll marry you."

“…”

Xiao Qi frowned slightly, her eyes were already facing each other, but after a while, she turned her eyes wide open and pushed Xu Buling out:

"I think about it. I won't bother you today, so I won't be an example."

Xu Buling was pushed out of the door and shook his head and sighed.
