Han Qiaosheng was startled. He really underestimated this kid. Not only did he get nothing after going around in such a big circle, but he let everyone know with one sentence that this could only be the result. Not only did he not fall in love with Yu'er, he also thought my pool was too small. He also said that he would treat Yu'er in a year's time. Isn't that what it was all about?
Han Qiaosheng was unhappy, and regardless of Yu'er Qin'er's thoughts, he raised his voice and said, "That's it, Han is waiting for you, little friend!"
When Huang Jin saw that it was time to leave, he quickly said: "Thank you, Mr. Han, for your warm hospitality!"
"Sorry for the poor reception." Han Qiaosheng handed him over.
Just like that, they got up and exchanged greetings, then went back to the cabin to rest.
After returning, Huang Jin was puzzled by Zhao Chuan. He couldn't understand why the Han family would be so kind to Zhao Chuan. Zhao Chuan's explanation was that Qin'er recognized his godbrother and asked him to do something for one year. Reply later.
Huang Jin wanted to ask more in detail, but Zhao Chuan excused himself by saying that this was just a matter of children playing house, and he couldn't figure it out. Anyway, that was all whether he believed it or not, so don't ask so many questions.
Huang Jinwu sighed to himself, saying that this Jiangzhou City is the county seat of Jiangzhou County. It is the seat of the county government and is extremely prosperous. It is said to be a small capital city in the south. It is simply beautiful to open a medical clinic in such a place. Or is it given by others? Money, where can I find such good things?
Zhao Chuan didn't want to pay attention to him and simply went out to play.
Shortly after noon, the ship arrived at the big town that Han Qiaosheng said. This town was really not small. Looking from the passenger ship, it was at least three or four miles long from north to south.
The large pier was crowded with people, and there was a market on one side of the pier. In addition, there were wealthy merchants who wanted to take the boat, hawkers who wanted to sell goods, and women and children who wanted to see the scenery and gain knowledge. In short, there were all kinds of people. There are a lot of people.
People who wanted to get off the ship or go to the pier to play were also crowded at the bow on the bottom floor. Naturally, the four Han family members also stood on the deck waiting.
Zhao Chuan didn't want to join in the fun. He was afraid that the Han family's maid would drag him off the boat to play, and he had long been afraid of climbing up to the second floor to find a place to watch the scenery.
This three-story luxury passenger ship was very large and had to be docked carefully and slowly. People on both sides were waiting patiently. However, when the passenger ship was still a few feet away from the shore, suddenly a miserable wailing came from behind the crowd on the shore.
Zhao Chuan stood on the top floor of the ship and saw what happened first: he saw a large group of men with knives and sticks rushing over from the town, slashing and smashing everyone they saw.
There were hundreds of men in this group. When they got close to the pier, they realized that beating people was not their purpose. What they wanted was to steal property and women.
Suddenly, people on the pier began to run away, shouting, cursing, and wailing. People on the passenger ship were frightened and stood there at a loss. However, the crew responded quickly, ringing bells and shouting to prevent the passenger ship from continuing to dock. .
"That's unreasonable! In this clear world, where are the mobs and bandits from? Are they going to rebel?"
Han Qiaosheng was so indignant that he stood on the bow of the boat and pointed at the shore a few feet away and shouted loudly. Han Zheng, his attendant, also took out the sword he carried and pointed at the other shore and shouted...
But no one paid attention to them on the other side. These men just went about robbing women and money. Those who refused to give up their money were hit with knives or sticks. Some even more disdainful guys even pulled off women's clothes and did that dirty thing on the spot.
There was a scene of tragedy on the pier, but the women on the passenger ship were probably frightened. Many of them screamed out of control. The mob looked at this place and shouted excitedly, asking the passenger ship to hurry up. Approaching the shore, but the crew was stupid, the paddle wheel quickly reversed under the crew's operation and slowly returned to the center of the river.
Seeing this, the mob was so angry that they threw their knives and sticks at the passenger ship. Fortunately, they were far away and could not hurt the guests.
Just when the boat passengers breathed a sigh of relief, another scream came from the pier.
The boat passengers were too shocked to react when they saw a hail of arrows flying towards the ground. The mob immediately fell on them. After another hail of arrows, there were almost no mobs standing on the pier. The few remaining people were left to rush away quickly. The dozen or so people who came came rode through the harvest, but there was no living person standing on the huge dock.
The passengers finally came to their senses and ran back to the cabin one after another. Only the four members of the Han family were left on the huge lower bow deck.
"Master Han! Master Han! The Marquis has an order, it's very urgent!" The first few horsemen to arrive flew to the shore of the pier, and one person in full light armor landed on the ground and shouted towards the passenger ship.
"Mr. Han, it's Zhang Ping! The Jiangzhou County garrison is attacking the bandits!" Follower Han Zheng said hurriedly.
Han Qiaosheng nodded, but said nothing. He just waved to the shore.
Not far from the pier, about a few hundred light horses suddenly arrived. They all rolled their saddles and dismounted and stood on the shore.
"Hurry to the shore! Mr. Han has urgent business." Han Zheng found the ship owner and showed his official badge. The crew quickly drove the ship to the shore without saying a word.
Captain Zhang Ping hurriedly jumped on board, paid homage and saluted, and briefly explained the current situation. He said that mobs in various parts of the north were rebelling, various forces in the imperial city took the opportunity to fight among themselves, and the world was in chaos. After that, he submitted a letter.
Han Qiaosheng hurriedly took out the letter and read the contents, then took a breath.
Han Qiaosheng pondered for a moment, handed the letter to his attendant Han Zheng, nodded to Captain Zhang Ping, turned around and walked back to his cabin.
Han Zheng glanced at the letter and his expression changed slightly.
"What's going on?" Han Yu'er couldn't help but ask Han Zheng.
"The Marquis asked me to return to my original post as soon as possible."
"Just reinstate yourself. What's so scary?" Qin'er interjected.
"Can't you see? This world... is already in chaos!" Han Zheng muttered, pointing to the pier with his chin, and quickly followed Han Qiaosheng who was climbing the ladder.
Captain Zhang Ping clenched his fist and raised his right arm towards the dock, and quickly followed Han Qiaosheng without saying a word.
Zhao Chuan stood on the second floor, condescending and saw all this.
He quickly returned to the cabin, thought for a moment and began to pack his things. He wanted to get ashore while the ship was docked.
Zhao Chuan was extremely unhappy. Han Qiaosheng turned out to be a member of the official family. Thinking of the tragedy of the Zhao family's annihilation, he now hated dealing with the official family, so he temporarily decided to disembark immediately. He did not want to interact with them.
Hearing that Zhao Chuan was about to get off the ship, Huang Jin was very surprised: "Now the world is in chaos! How can we get off the ship in this small place?"
Huang Jin is right. The dock in front of us is a hell on earth. Isn't this asking for danger? He suggested staying on the boat and getting off the boat at a safe area at Jiangzhou City Dock.
"What does the chaos in the world have to do with me?" Zhao Chuan disagreed. The Zhao Mansion had already been in chaos, and whether the world was in chaos now seemed to have nothing to do with him.
"But when we get off the ship, there is no safety guarantee?"
"I'm just an orphan. I'm wandering around. I'm forced to resist beatings and yet I can run away. How could I not be in danger one day?" Zhao Chuan insisted on leaving.
Huang Jin didn't want to break up with Zhao Chuan at this time. During the few days on the boat, he always felt that this boy was a bit famous, and he couldn't do without this boy even more.
"I can't let you go. You are very young and I am very worried. I promised to help you find your relatives. We should find your relatives together first!" Huang Jin tried his best to find excuses but was unwilling to let Zhao Chuan go. The boy can be of great use to himself.
"Uncle Huang, let's say goodbye!" Zhao Chuan was determined to leave.
"No, we are destined to be together... Hey, you saved my life, but you can't ignore me, little brother..." Huang Jin was determined to stalk Zhao Chuan, and he talked incoherently.
Just as the two were arguing, Qin'er came into the cabin and said that Mr. Han had something to ask for.
"No! I have something to do and I have to get off the boat." Zhao Chuan shook off Huang Jin's pull.
"Then, I want to say that it was the young lady who begged you to go? The young lady is in trouble and if you don't save her, she will die. I'm not going to lie to you!" Qin'er said sternly.
"This -" Zhao Chuan was secretly surprised. Did he go wrong in treating Han Yu'er two days ago? It is a taboo to cure a disease and kill a person. This is not allowed by nature.
Zhao Chuan hurriedly followed Qin'er to the Han family's cabin on the third floor, but when he entered the cabin, he saw Han Yu'er sitting safe and sound, but Master Han, Han Zheng and the captain all had serious expressions on their faces.
Seeing Zhao Chuan come in, Han Qiaosheng hurriedly stood up and greeted him with his hands, which was so polite that it felt strange.
"My dear friend, I have something urgent to ask of you..." Han Qiaosheng told Zhao Chuan the matter.
It turned out that Han Qiaosheng wanted to go on an emergency expedition with Captain Zhang Ping who came to assist Prince Hou in quelling the rebellion in the north, but he could not bring his family with him, so Miss Han Yu'er and maid Qin'er still took the boat back to Jiangzhou City, hoping to ask Zhao Chuan to accompany them and take care of them all the way. With a weak and sick body, of course the Han family would not treat him badly.
Zhao Chuan declined politely, "What a coincidence. Master and I decided to disembark at the last minute." If Zhao Chuan could agree a day ago, it would be different now that he knows the official background of the Han family.
"It's such a coincidence, isn't it, little friend? The world is in chaos now, and you saw it on the dock. Do you really want to get off the boat?" Han Qiaosheng was puzzled.
"Alas, I am just a poor wandering child. I am the same wherever I go in troubled times..." Zhao Chuan said lightly.
Han Qiaosheng frowned. He couldn't understand this 15-year-old boy more and more.
Han Qiaosheng pondered for a moment and was about to speak again. Unexpectedly, the maid Qin'er saw the young lady Han Yu'er's chest rising and falling, her face was pale and she lowered her head without saying a word. She immediately jumped over and pinched Zhao Chuan's arm and said fiercely: "You damn stinky Chuan, let you come with me." What's the big deal when you get off the boat back in Jiangzhou City? This is because the lady thinks highly of you. Will you accompany me or not? If not, I will strangle you to death!"
Zhao Chuan grimaced in pain and screamed in pain, saying that it was not because he didn't want to accompany him, but because he was just a young boy and had no strength to restrain a chicken. Being a companion in such troubled times could not protect the safety of the young lady. He repeatedly pointed at Han Zheng and said how good it would be to ask him to escort him. .
Han Zheng repeatedly waved his hand and said that he was a personal guard and would go with the master.
Zhao Chuan also pointed to the captain Zhang Ping, saying that there were many sergeants on the dock, and it would be fine to just call in a few.
Unexpectedly, Qin'er pinched her even harder after hearing this, and cursed Zhao Chuan, saying that the young lady is a rich man, how could he ask a few rough sergeants to accompany the young lady?
Seeing this, Han Qiaosheng hurriedly tried to smooth things over, saying that there was no need to worry about the escort. There happened to be people from the Beijing Escort Bureau on board, and he had already agreed with them that he could escort the lady. The price had been negotiated and a deposit had been paid.
Zhao Chuan wanted to refuse, but seeing Han Yu'er's nervous look and Qin'er staring at him with an angry look, he couldn't think of any reason at the moment, so he had no choice but to say that he would go back and discuss it with his master Huang Jin.
Zhao Chuan's original intention was to buffer and buy some time to think of an escape plan. Unexpectedly, a shout came from outside the cabin, "Xiaochuan! Chuan'er! Where are you? Get off the boat with your teacher quickly, the boat will leave the shore soon!"
This exaggerated tone was high and clear and it must be Huang Jin. This basic skill of a charlatan is not something that can be mastered. It caused people from the cabin next door to come out to take a look.
"This damn doctor came just in time." Zhao Chuan thought to himself.
Unexpectedly, Han Qiaosheng called Huang Jin in, explained the situation, and then took out a banknote. When Huang Jin saw the banknote, his eyes straightened.
"It's easy to say, although there is no medicine on this ship, if our master and apprentice see common minor illnesses such as wind, cold, brain fever, etc., it will be no problem to use massage and acupuncture! Don't worry, Miss Dingbao will get off the ship safely at Jiangzhou City Pier..." Huang Jinmei smiled happily, Put the banknote in your arms.
"Then thank you both!" Han Qiaosheng thanked him.
"X-Xiaochuan! Since we are going to Jiangzhou, why don't we get off the ship? Right..." Huang Jin glanced at Zhao Chuan and hurriedly gave Han Qiaosheng a gift in return.
Zhao Chuan had a dark look on his face.
