Along the Yangzhou River, at Santankou.

At this moment, there were a total of twelve large ships lying across the river, forming a long snake formation, which was very spectacular.

These are the twelve large merchant ships of the Du Family Trading Company. There are also triangular flags on the ships, with the word "Du" embroidered on them fluttering in the wind.

There are many waterways in the land south of the Yangtze River, and a fleet is a must for merchants to do business.

I saw that these merchant ships were all large-winged ships, twenty-four feet long and three feet two feet wide. If converted to Chinese dimensions, they would be about 46 meters long and about 7 meters wide. They could be called giants on the water.

These boats were divided into two decks, with the oarsmen below and cabins above for storage and people.

There are arrow stacks on both sides of the ship, making this large-winged ship look more like a warship.

At this time, all the millions of taels of silver and grain sent by the King of Yangzhou were loaded on the ship.

These things are too heavy. If they are transported back to Huangzhou by carriage, there will be too much movement in the place where they pass. Yangzhou Wang Xia Bao and the new prince will definitely cause trouble, and it will most likely be difficult to transport them back.

Therefore, taking the waterway down the river is the fastest and safest option.

Before Xia Tian entered Yangzhou City, everything had been arranged.

but.

Du Yue'er's method this time made Xia Tian look at him with admiration!

In front of him, this beautiful woman was as gentle as water, like a girl who was inexperienced in the world.

However, she has a superb way of doing things and is not an ordinary woman.

The business outside Huangzhou can be left to her with confidence.

He was really pleased.

At this time, the Huangzhou Army's family members, Du Yue'er's people, and the coachmen and their families from the top ten car dealers in Yangzhou City had all boarded the boat.

If these people don't leave, they will definitely be liquidated by King Xia of Yangzhou.

On the boat, the coachmen looked at those big cars with some reluctance!

Xia Tian walked to them and said gently and comfortingly: "Don't feel bad!"

“I have already built a new carriage in the Barren State. When you arrive in the Barren State, you will be able to drive the new carriage...a better carriage.

All the carriage drivers hurriedly paid homage: "Common people pay homage to the prince."

A large area fell to its knees in the darkness.

Xia Xia Xu supported him and said: "Everyone, get up!"

"After returning to Huangzhou, I will form a caravan to go to the desert. There will be a place for you to show your skills in the future."

The coachmen were overjoyed and stood up and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

At this time.

"Da da da......"

Bai Hu, Zhao Zichang, Xue Zhu, and Lao Gui returned with eight thousand cavalry, followed by General Luo Ying's soldiers.

White Tiger jumped up, landed next to Xia Tian and saluted: "Your Majesty, the mission is completed."

"Those Yangzhou private troops were driven back to Yangzhou City by us."

Xia Tian smiled handsomely: "Uncle Bai, thank you for your hard work!"

“Don’t dare to say it’s hard work!”

Xia Xia then said: "General Luo Ying, lead your people on board!"

"yes!"

General Luo Ying's three thousand troops quickly boarded the ship.

Eight thousand soldiers and horses of the Huangzhou Army guarded the shore and remained alert.

In the sky.

"Choo Choo Choo......"

The golden eagle makes a warning sound.

A young man with a hidden sword flew onto the ship: "Your Majesty, the Yangzhou army is already retreating, but the Yangzhou king with three thousand cavalry is still chasing here."

Xia Tian thought for a while and guessed Xia Bao's intention: "It seems that my Seventh Emperor brother gritted his teeth and swallowed it in his stomach, and is coming to negotiate terms with me!"

"Zichang, if they don't launch an attack, let them come to the river to talk to me!"

"yes!"

Zhao Zichang took the order.

now.

Du Yue'er settled her affairs and walked to Xia Tian: "Your Highness, Yue'er has something secret to tell you, please come with Yue'er!"

Xia Tian followed Du Yue'er into the cabin without hesitation.

suddenly.

Du Yue'er turned the cabin upside down!

The white tiger behind them was stunned for a moment, with a glimmer of wisdom flashing in his eyes. He turned around and stood guard at the door, watching his nose and heart with his eyes to prevent others from coming.

Xia Tian was also stunned: "Du Caimai, what are you doing?"

Du Yue'er raised a charming smile at the corner of her mouth, walked up to Xia Tian very movingly, raised her big watery eyes, straightened her chest to look at the person, and showed two extremely touching touches of white in front of Xia Tian's eyes.

Immediately afterwards, her two soft balls hit Xia Tian's chest, full of elasticity, which made people think.

"do what?"

Du Yue'er's little mouth came forward and her breathing was like orchid: "Your Majesty, you can lead an army thousands of miles to rescue Yue'er. Yue'er really has nothing to repay, so I can only pledge myself to you!"

Xia Tian's heart beat a little faster: "Du Caimai, you are a member of my Royal Palace in Huangzhou. If I don't save you even though I know you have stepped into a trap, am I still worthy of your following?"

"Even if you are not the one being plotted today, I will bring an army here."

"Yeah?"

Du Yue'er asked seriously: "If it were someone else, would the prince lead the army to kill regardless of the consequences?"

Xia Tian also answered seriously: "Yes!"

"We have let Emperor Sirius know that the Wasteland State cannot be insulted lightly. From now on, when caravans go to the desert to do business, they can hold their heads high and raise their heads without fear of threats."

"But within the Great Xia Empire, after we gave up the credit to Marshal Li, the people of Jiuzhou thought that we in Huangzhou were weak and could be bullied."

"This kind of knowledge is not good for those of you who are walking outside!"

"Because there are many people in the world who bully the weak and fear the strong. If the people of Jiuzhou think that our Huangzhou is weak and can be bullied, then the people of Huangzhou who are doing business outside will often encounter extortion and will be very passive."

"What's more, you are the most beautiful woman in the world. There are many people who want you. If they are not afraid of the power behind you, they will definitely make trouble and cause you more trouble!"

"So, coming to Yangzhou to cause trouble is in line with Huangzhou's current interests."

"Last night's battle was like a warning from Huangzhou to the world. If the people of Huangzhou cause trouble for me, I will retaliate regardless of the consequences, and I will definitely kill everyone."

"This time, I just want to tell the world that those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes. I have an army in the deserted state that is not afraid of death. If we fight against each other, no one will be able to live in peace."

"From now on, those who want to take advantage of you will also consider whether they want to become enemies of our Huangzhou?"

Du Yue'er understood!

She bit her red lips with her teeth and looked at Xia Tian with her big watery eyes. She was even more fascinated by this man: "But if you bring an army to Yangzhou, you are violating the imperial decree and you will definitely be punished by the imperial court."

"The emperor doesn't want to see you so much. If he gets caught with this, he will not let the prince go easily."

Her eyes were blurred, and her delicate body was even closer to her, pressing Xia Tian against the bulkhead: "My lord, you once sent me a poem, and then you came thousands of miles to save me. What do you think the world will think of you?"

Xia Tian blinked: "King Huangzhou is a good prince worth following!"

Du Yue'er gently leaned her pretty face on Xia Tian's shoulder: "Prince, are you feeling well?"

Xia Tian was stunned: "It's not bad!"

Du Yue'er's beautiful eyes were shy, and she rubbed Xia Tian's chest twice: "That's good!"

Then, Du Yue'er's delicate body pressed tightly against her, like an octopus, hugging Xia Tian's waist, and said with a blush on her pretty face: "I feel it!"

"Your body is strong."

"Your body misses Yue'er's body..."

At this time, on the river under the morning sun, the beautiful girl in the cabin was in a state of confusion. She hugged a handsome boy tightly and murmured: "Your Majesty, please forgive Yue'er for being rude!"

at this time.

The sound of a summer storm came from outside: "Lao Jiu, come out and talk!"

"How do we resolve this matter?"
