Chapter 391: The Feng Brothers' and Sisters' Concealment
"Gao Zhong, are you sure about this?" Li Su asked in a serious tone.
"Your Highness, there will be no mistake, when the next person reported it, the old slave didn't believe it very much, but last night, I saw the other party sneak down to the second floor, and stayed alone with one of the widows for a while, and only returned to his cabin when it was the fourth watch!" Gao Zhong also reported with a solemn face.
Li Su heard Gao Chong's affirmative answer, and his face also swelled with a little anger, he thought that he had done a good deed with kindness, but he didn't expect that in exchange for this result, although he didn't know the other party's purpose, but he could guess one or two from the other party's ghostly attitude, it was definitely not a good thing!
In fact, I don't blame Li Su for being angry, Gao Zhong reported to him just now, Feng Shijie, who was almost in good condition, secretly met with the widow who lived on the second floor, and it was not once or twice, and even Gao Zhong was personally bumped into last night, but he just took into account that the other party was Li Su's guest, so Gao Zhong did not make a noise, but ran to report to Li Su first.
The King of Qi is divided into five floors, the lowest floor is not inhabited, the second floor is inhabited by the sailors on the ship, the third floor is inhabited by the male servants and guards of the palace, the fourth floor is the maids and the widows bought by Gao Chong, and the fifth floor is inhabited by Li Su and Gao Chong, the important figures of the palace, and the Feng brothers and sisters also live on this floor as guests, because the ship is full of people from the palace, so the internal defense of the King of Qi is much lax, which allows Feng Shijie to find an opportunity to take advantage of the rejection of the night and secretly run to the next floor to see a widow. This naturally made Li Su shocked and angry.
Gao Zhong saw that Li Su's face was not very good-looking, so he hesitated for a moment and decided to tell everything he knew. So I saw him speak: "Your Highness, when the old slave was monitoring Feng Shijie yesterday. When she saw the other party go back, Miss Feng also came out of the room. And stopped her brother, as if he was still begging the other party, but the old slave was afraid that they would find out, so he stayed far away, and did not hear what they were saying. ”
Hearing this, Li Su's face became even more gloomy, obviously, the Feng brothers and sisters had something to hide from themselves, and it was also related to the low-level widows. This made Li Su have to suspect that the identity of the other party is likely to be fake, or even someone sent by someone inside the Japanese State to assassinate him?
However, Li Su quickly ruled out this conjecture, because Feng Shuyu had made a lot of delicacies for himself before, if the other party really wanted to assassinate him, then he would probably have been poisoned and died, and Feng Shijie's illness did not seem to be fake, if he hadn't met him, the other party would have died a long time ago. No Assassin would have pinned all his hopes on luck.
However, if the conjecture that the Feng brothers and sisters want to be unfavorable to themselves is ruled out, then what is the purpose of the other party, why does he have to meet the widows behind his back, and those widows are what he intends to give away. couldn't get to his side at all, why did Feng Shijie approach them?
"Your Highness, do you want to arrest people first. Lest there be any accidents? Gao Zhong asked very responsibly, he was the head of the palace. is one of Li Su's most trusted people, and now he naturally has to think about Li Su's safety. After all, with such a person on board who clearly had other intentions, no one could guarantee that something would happen.
However, Li Su thought about it and refused: "No, the boats are all from the palace, and Xi Jun bought them and these guards are inseparable from me, with the other party, a man and a woman, are you afraid that they can go to the sky?" ”
Li Su pondered for a while when he said this, and then said: "Since Feng Shuyu also knows about this matter, with her temperament, it should be our best breakthrough, so let's go find the other party, just say that I want to drink at the bow of the boat at noon, ask her to help me prepare a few side dishes, and then let her accompany her, and then I will ask her personally!" ”
Although Gao Zhong didn't want Li Su to contact the Feng brothers and sisters again, he knew Li Su's character best, and knew that as long as His Royal Highness decided something, if there was no absolute reason, it would not be changed, and what Li Su said also made sense, the whole ship was full of people from the palace, even if the Feng brothers and sisters wanted to be unfavorable to Li Su, if everyone didn't know about it, it was possible to succeed, but if they had already taken precautions in their hearts, and then wanted to do something to His Royal Highness, it would be basically whimsical.
Feng Shuyu in the cabin frowned tightly, with a sullen expression, last night she begged her brother again, but was rejected again, she also knew that her brother couldn't bear to let herself suffer, but how could she want her dearest brother to suffer again, whenever she saw her brother come back, the painful expression in her heart was like a knife cut.
Father and mother are nowhere to be found, she is left with only one relative, her brother is left, he can't find food when he flees, he would rather be hungry, but he also wants to save the last piece of dry food for himself, the most dangerous time is to meet three rebels, want to do wrong to himself, but the brother fought for his life, killed one of them, and he was also injured, but he also waved his knife, which scared the other two away. Thinking of this, Feng Shuyu felt uncomfortable for a while, and tears couldn't stop flowing, his brother was so good to him, but now he could only watch him suffer, but he couldn't help much.
"Is Miss Feng here?" Just as Feng Shuyu was thinking about his thoughts, he suddenly heard the senior manager outside knocking on the door.
Hearing Gao Zhong's voice, Feng Shuyu immediately wiped away her tears, walked over and opened the door and said, "Manager Gao, is there something wrong?" ”
Gao Zhong came at the order of Li Su, and when he saw Feng Shuyu's eyes slightly red when he saw that he had opened the door, as if he had just cried, the doubts in Gao Zhongzhong were even heavier, and he looked the other party up and down a few times, and then he told Li Su's instructions.
During this time, Li Su liked the food made by Feng Shuyu very much, so he often asked her to cook, and Feng Shuyu was also very grateful to Li Shuyu, and now he can do something for him, he is naturally very willing, and he is very happy every time he cooks, this time it is the same, after preparing it, he went to Li Su's royal kitchen on the ship, and then selected a few ingredients and made a few side dishes that are more suitable for Li Su's taste.
Now that it has entered May, the temperature on the sea is already quite hot, but today's weather is a little gloomy, and the wind blowing is also a little cool, Li Su set up a big umbrella on the bow of the boat, and placed the side dishes prepared by Feng Shuyu below, and then in Feng Shuyu's eyes, he tasted several dishes one by one, and finally showed a satisfied smile on his face.
Seeing that His Royal Highness King Qi was satisfied with the dishes she made, Feng Shuyu also seemed very happy, but unfortunately she didn't know that before these dishes were served, they had already been tasted by the high-level arrangers, and after finding that they were not poisonous, they were only delivered.
"Shuyu, you can also sit down, it's a little cooler today, sit down and drink a few glasses with me, this is a cold wine, all of which are made by the king in the Zhuangzi of the Western Regions, the taste is different from other places, and you can't buy it outside." Li Su smiled and said to Feng Shuyu next to him.
If it was placed at the beginning, Feng Shuyu might not dare to sit down, but during this time, she was familiar with Li Su, and she also knew that Li Su did not have a prince's shelf, so she did not shirk it, and walked to Li Su and sat down opposite Li Su, and then under Li Su's gaze, she picked up the wine in front of her and took a sip, but she didn't like to drink, so she immediately frowned and put it down.
Seeing Feng Shuyu's appearance, Li Su shook his head with a smile, and suddenly asked, "Shuyu, you are still used to living on the ship during this time, have you encountered any difficulties?" ”
"His Royal Highness Xie cares, everything is fine on the ship, Shuyu is so big, it's the first time I've seen such a big ship, and it's not bumpy, it feels like I'm on land, so there's nothing unaccustomed." Feng Shuyu replied with a smile, but for some reason, there seemed to be some worry in her eyes.
"Just get used to it." Li Su said with a smile, but then said, "I know that although you are a Han Chinese, you grew up in the Wa Kingdom, and sometimes you may not have anything to say to the people around you, but it doesn't matter, there are some Wa girls in the lower floor, if you feel bored, you can go and chat with them." ”
Hearing Li Su's seemingly casual mention of the widows below, the simple-minded Feng Shuyu's face immediately changed, and he couldn't tell whether he was happy or worried, and then he hesitated for a moment before saying: "His Royal Highness Xie cares, Shuyu has written it down, if it wasn't for His Highness to save him, Shuyu may also be one of those female slaves, and a few of them are Shuyu's old acquaintances, if you have time, Shuyu will go to chat with them again." ”
When Li Su heard Feng Shuyu's words, his eyes froze, and the murderous aura on his face disappeared in a flash. The Feng brothers and sisters are all related to the slave girls below, is it really as they guessed, they have some ulterior secrets?
However, Li Su quickly adjusted his mood, raised his wine glass and drank the cold wine, and then turned his head to Feng Shuyu and smiled: "By the way, I haven't seen your brother in the past few days, I heard that his illness is almost better, and there are no more abnormal symptoms, right?" ”
Hearing Li Su ask about his brother, the look on Feng Shuyu's face became a little sad, but he still replied: "Your Royal Highness, my brother's illness is indeed out of the way, but he likes to be quiet and doesn't like to move, plus the weather is hot, so he has been staying in the cabin and rarely goes out. ”
After hearing this, Li Su snorted coldly in his heart, I am afraid that he rarely goes out during the day, but the number of times he goes out at night is very frequent, and he is also connected with the widows below.
But before Li Su could speak, the expression on Feng Shuyu's face changed again, and a look of determination surged up on his originally sad face, only to see him suddenly stand up, and then kneel at Li Su's feet and said: "Your Highness, the people have something to ask for, I hope Your Highness can grant permission!" ”
After Feng Shuyu said the above sentence that had been circling in her heart countless times, she suddenly felt a sense of relief, she couldn't watch her brother suffer like this anymore, although she also knew that her next words would be a little silly, but this was the only thing she could do for her brother.
