Xiaochun and Xiaotang were waiting on the pallet.
Seeing Shu Shu and his entourage coming, they came up to greet them.
Shu Shu did not go up immediately, but looked behind.
The boat of the Tenth Prince and his wife was next to theirs, right behind.
There are people waiting there, including Wang Changan and Shifujin, a maid.
Shi Fujin felt a little impatient and said, "Sister-in-law Jiu, I'm leaving. I want to go to our big ship."
Shu Shu nodded and said: "Go!"
Shifujin left in a hurry.
Shu Shu then got on the pallet.
As soon as she stepped onto the cabin floor, she noticed a difference.
It was really silent.
The feeling of stepping on thick carpet.
This felt seems to be thicker than the door felt.
Shu Shu looked at the cabin walls again. They were all nailed with plain white silk and looked very bright.
She reached out and touched it, but there was also felt behind it. She hit the wall twice with her hand, but there was no sound.
She looked at the window and hatch again.
Felt was also nailed to the hatch and one was hung.
On the window, there are two layers of curtains. Except for the silk curtains on the inside, there are thick curtains sandwiched with silk hanging on the outside.
Xiao Chun said: "I tried it last night and lowered the curtains. It was quiet inside and the sound insulation was good."
Although she is one year older than Shu Shu, she is still a young girl. Unexpectedly, she really thinks that such a big deal about soundproofing is because the ninth prince is afraid of making noise.
Shu Shu nodded solemnly and said: "That's good, it will save me from not sleeping well and getting sick."
Speaking of this, she thought of her "Lard Bibimbap" plan, which was too cruel and unhealthy.
But you can think of ways to gain weight.
The reason why Ninth Brother is thinner than his peers is because his stomach is weak and he suffers from indigestion after eating more than a few mouthfuls.
If you want to gain weight, eat smaller meals more frequently.
Shu Shu said to Xiaotang: "Fried noodles, lotus root starch, and fermented noodles are always available in the small kitchen. I will add one meal each in the morning and afternoon. I am too thin, so I need to make up for it..."
Xiaotang hesitated and said: "Fu Jin, is it too plain?"
Shouldn’t we eat meat to nourish our body?
Shu Shu shook her head and said: "Don't be too greasy. My stomach and intestines can't stand it. There must be two eggs in the morning and milk cake in the afternoon."
In preparation for their southern tour, they had prepared food for the road, and they all ate quite a bit. Only milk cakes were made in large quantities at that time, and they were able to store them, and they were still rich.
Xiaotang memorized everything carefully.
Brother Jiu just happened to come back. After hearing this, he said: "Why is it only my father's, and you haven't said yours yet!"
Although Shu Shu was also growing, she didn't want to eat.
This is fattening!
Brother Jiu said, "I can't just eat it. You can watch it, right?"
Shu Shu thought about it for a while, but the situation seemed pitiful and easy to get greedy.
She thought about the light food recipes for later generations and said: "In the morning, I also have a boiled egg and a cup of tea, and I give you fried noodles or noodle tea; in the afternoon, I also have tea, plus an apple."
Brother Jiu sat in front of Shu Shu, reached out and touched her forehead and said, "Are you feeling unwell? Why don't you like eating all of a sudden?"
Shu Shu shook her head and said: "No, you still need to eat three meals. I just said extra meals, one extra meal each in the morning, early afternoon, and early afternoon..."
Brother Jiu looked surprised and said, "Eating five meals a day?! Are you a slut? Who eats like this?"
Shu Shu said: "My intestines and stomach are weak. If you want to nourish your body, you have to eat less and more frequently."
Brother Jiu knew that he was disliked, and looked at Shu Shu with a somewhat unkind look in his eyes.
Shu Shu didn't try to coax him.
Otherwise, it will become a habit and you will only be affected in the future.
You should know better or worse.
For the sake of his body, does she still have to feed him one bite at a time?
Seeing that the ship was about to leave, Shu Shu waved his hand and sent Xiao Chun a few people off, saying: "Just come over during lunch time and extra meals."
Xiaochun responded and retreated.
The three of them lived in the back cabin, the large room that connected the two cabins.
There is a large bed inside, and a one-foot board outside, which can sleep three people.
There are two more rooms in the back cabin, one is used as a temporary kitchen and the other is occupied by Sun Jin.
The four forward cabins are all separate.
He Yuzhu occupied one room, and the remaining three rooms were reserved for the guards and soldiers who were on duty on board the ship.
I thought the eleven cabins were affluent before, but they were actually quite full.
After a while, the ship sailed.
Seeing that Shu Shu was ignoring him, Brother Jiu had already adjusted himself, walking on the ground with a bit of novelty, sometimes stamping his feet, and said: "This boat is very stable, no wonder the emperor's grandmother and the concubine didn't get seasick. "
Hearing what he said, Shu Shu said: "I hope the ten brothers and sisters won't get seasick, otherwise they will suffer all the way back."
Brother Jiu said: "No, even if you go back by car, you don't have to be in a hurry, it's just right if it's lukewarm."
Shu Shu thought of something and said: "It was smooth sailing when we came here, but it was against the wind and current when we went back. I heard they would use trackers to pull the fibers. In that case, would the boat speed be slower?"
Such a fleet, with so many large ships in front and behind, how much manpower would it cost?
Brother Jiu was stunned for a moment, then pointed at Shu Shu and laughed.
"Hahaha!"
Shu Shu was dumbfounded by laughter.
Brother Jiu was still laughing, his eyes were lit with fluorescent light, and he burst into tears.
Shu Shu couldn't help it anymore and grabbed a handful on his waist.
Since you have asked, answer well, even if you encounter an area that you are not familiar with, it is enough to laugh at it.
Brother Jiu grabbed Shu Shu's hand and couldn't stop smiling: "It's so interesting! Do you think that the canal can be pulled backwards by people? It's more than two thousand miles from Hangzhou to the capital, and it's all by manpower?"
Shu Shu had never thought about it before, but now that she thought about it, it was really nonsense.
"How about sailing against the current?"
Shu Shu asked.
Brother Jiu cleared his throat, stood up, put his hands behind his back, and said: "Of course it's also through water conservancy, just opening the gate and releasing the water."
Shu Shu suddenly realized.
Although there was a gate along the way, Shu Shu thought it was a repair unit.
Didn't think much about its function.
Shu Shu glanced at Brother Jiu and said with dissatisfaction: "When I met you and I didn't know how to do it, did I laugh at you?"
Brother Jiu sat down and hummed softly: "You just asked me yesterday what day today is, and now you have forgotten it? That time in the back office of the Bingma Division, do you dare to say that you have no joke?"
Shu Shu smiled and said: "Didn't you expect that someone would dare to use false evidence to complain?"
However, she asked out of curiosity: "Why do you think the pseudonym is 'Jin Er Ye', not 'Jin Jiu Ye'?"
Brother Jiu said: "You are stupid as a master. There are many smart people in this capital. Who doesn't know that Gui Dan is the nephew of the empress? What would others think if a 'Jin Wu Ye' or 'Jin Jiu Ye' came out directly?"
Shu Shu smiled, she was really smart for once, but not very smart.
This identity was just self-deception. She could clearly remember that look of someone who needed a beating.
In spring, the sun is warm.
The young couple did not stay in the cabin, but went to the deck.
Along the canal, there are blooming flowers.
only……
Seeing the scenery but not the people...
Occasionally, I see a marching team, which is the greeting troops under the banner of the Hangzhou General.
Shu Shu said: "Didn't the script say that there was someone who stopped the Holy Emperor and complained to the emperor? Why didn't he see you?"
Not only that, but the people along the way seemed to have been expelled.
Brother Jiu said: "What else can be done, it's just that the defenses are so tight that they can't rush forward."
The southern patrol team seemed to have hundreds of people, but in fact the number of local people to pick up and escort the driver was ten times more.
Only when you have a grievance will you think of filing a complaint, but in that case the local officialdom will be purged, and the parents and officials will naturally be on guard.
Not only the two of them came out, but Brother Shi and Shi Fujin were also on the deck behind them.
When Shi Fujin saw the two of them, he waved his arms and shouted.
It's just that it looks close, but in fact it's far away, so you can't really hear what you're shouting.
Brother Jiu looked at Shi Fujin's appearance and said to Shushu Digu: "Fortunately, the clearance has been reduced. If it were still the same as it was a year ago, the ship would have collapsed!"
Shu Shu glanced at him, really embarrassed.
Fortunately, he is more sensible than before, but he is more unrestrained in front of himself.
Just after looking at the rear boat, there was movement from the front boat again.
It was Brother Fourteen. He put his hand in front of his mouth and shouted: "Brother Ninth!"
Brother Jiu waved his arms as if in a lake, and said to Shushu Digu: "It's not boring, it's really fun."
Because Shu Shu only mentioned the extra meals to Xiaotang this morning, these two meals were very simple.
But it’s all there.
Jiu Age has two hard-boiled eggs, two honey twists, and a bowl of fried noodles; Shu Shu has one hard-boiled egg and a cup of tea.
Brother Jiu touched his stomach and said, "I'm really hungry, but is this too vegetarian?"
Shu Shu pointed to the fried noodles and said, "There is butter here."
Brother Jiu asked: "Where's the meat?"
He thought of his dear fifth brother, who enjoyed all kinds of meat, so he got fat.
Since he was criticized for losing weight, he would just make up for it.
Shu Shu said: "That's enough meat for dinner."
Brother Ninth stopped talking, and the couple had their morning tea.
After lunch, the two took a nap.
The windows of the cabin were all open, and there was soft smoke floating on the lake.
Brother Jiu said he was warm before, but he didn't mean to pull Shu Shu's absurdity.
This is his prince Fujin, and now he is on the way with the retinue. Whenever there is a trace of disrespect in the eyes of others, they will get angry.
He doesn't care much about his own reputation, but he can't stand his wife's reputation being flawed.
In the afternoon it was lunch again.
After guessing Shen Zheng, the boats in front began to moor one after another.
Arrive at Pingwang, Wujiang County, where we will anchor tonight.
Brother Jiu stretched himself and said to Shu Shu: "I don't know, if you compare me with riding a horse, I would be like a grandson!"
Shu Shu nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
The couple was bored when a little eunuch trotted over and said breathlessly: "Master Jiu, the emperor has summoned us!"
Brother Ninth nodded and said to Shu Shu: "Then I'll go over there. If you don't want to stay here, just look for the Tenth Brother."
Shu Shu nodded in agreement.
The little eunuch didn't stop and was already sending a message to Brother Ten's boat behind him.
This was passed on from person to person in such a hurry that the tenth prince did not delay.
In the time it took to speak, the tenth prince arrived.
The two brothers went forward hand in hand.
"What happened? Are you working in a hurry?"
Brother Jiu said.
Brother Ten remembered what they had complained about yesterday and had a bad feeling.
Could it be that pulling out the radish brought out the mud?
When they got on the dragon boat and arrived at the imperial court, they found that everything that was supposed to come had arrived.
He is accompanied by adult princes, princes of the clan, bachelors, ministers leading bodyguards, and other civil and military ministers.
The atmosphere is not right.
Kangxi sat high on the dragon throne, looked around at everyone, and said with a livid face: "I went south to patrol the province, and I came here to care for the people, not to disturb them. Since leaving the capital, I have made reserves to meet the needs of the emperor, and used them for daily use along the way. , I also ordered the yamen to purchase according to the current price, but some people still ignored my instructions and looted the place, which is really hateful!"

This is from yesterday. I couldn’t stand it until I fell asleep in the middle of writing it. 55
