Hu San was determined to tie up Zhao Jia and the three of them, so after the transaction was completed, he specially asked people to prepare two carriages, and then sent Zhao Jia and them back to their residence, originally Zhao Jia and the three of them lived in the military camp of the navy, but now there are so many girls, they must not be able to go back to the barracks, but this is not a big deal, Zhao Jia found the steward of the Yue Wangfu in Nanyang Port, and asked him to prepare two sets of yards for himself, one for Li Chengjin's house to hide Jiao, and the other is to arrange for the strange girl to live.

"Shizi, this courtyard is next to the military port, surrounded by the families of some naval officers, there are twelve hours of non-stop patrols on the street, the most safe, in addition, I have arranged a lot of manpower around, if you want to live here, you definitely don't have to worry about safety!" Steward Lu, who was in charge of leading the way in front, introduced Zhao Jia while opening the gate of this courtyard.

It's just that when he spoke, Steward Lu had a little wry smile on his face, especially when he saw the interracial girl next to Zhao Jia, he was even more complicated, because he didn't know whether to report this matter? After all, the age of the prince is not particularly old now, and if he is addicted to women, it is not a good thing.

Zhao Jia had also noticed the expression on Steward Lu's face for a long time, but he didn't rush to explain, but followed him into the courtyard to take a look, and found that although this courtyard was not big, it was quite elegant, and the architectural style of the entire courtyard was similar to the houses in Tokyo City, and some details could see some of the local styles of Nanyang, which made him very satisfied.

"Uncle Lu, I'm very satisfied with this courtyard, in addition, you go and ask someone to find some interpreters, preferably able to understand some languages in the west, I have something to ask this woman!" Zhao Jia nodded with satisfaction after looking at the courtyard, and then instructed Steward Lu. This Steward Lu is the distant nephew of the old housekeeper Lu of the palace, and he used to work in the capital before, so Zhao Jia also knows him, and for the sake of the old housekeeper Lu, he has always regarded the other party as an elder.

"Yes!" Steward Lu immediately agreed, but then he hesitated. Then he said with some embarrassment, "Shizi, it is said that villains should not talk much, but Shizi, you are not only the prince of the king, but the prince and the princess have high hopes for you. ”

Hearing these words of Steward Lu, Zhao Jia was not surprised. Because the other party's eyes were a little wrong when he saw that he came back with the girl just now, in order not to let him misunderstand again, Zhao Jia smiled and said: "Uncle Lu, you misunderstood, the identity of this girl I brought is a little special, especially her hometown, which makes me very curious, and I guess my father will also be very interested in this matter, so you can report this matter." However, when mentioning this young girl, it must be said that this young girl wears a cross. Father will understand when he hears it. ”

"I see, but the old slave misunderstood the son!" Steward Lu heard Zhao Jia's explanation, his eyes immediately lit up and said, Zhao Jia dared to let himself report this matter, it was definitely not what he thought, although he didn't understand what cross it was, it didn't matter to him. Anyway, this is not the one thing he doesn't understand in this world.

At that moment, Steward Lu trotted out to help Zhao Jia find an interpreter, and Zhao Jia took the girl into the main hall to sit down, and personally poured her a cup of tea, but the other party was very cautious, just politely put it on his lips and sipped it. But he didn't drink it. However, it can also be seen that she should have received a good upbringing since she was a child, even if she is so down, she still maintains basic etiquette, which also makes Zhao Jia sure that the other party should be born in a noble.

"Zhao Jia! I! Zhao Jia ......, "Although words can't be used, Zhao Jia did not give up communication with the other party, he pointed to himself and said his name a few times, and then pointed to the other party, signaling her to say her name."

This blonde girl was very smart, and quickly understood what Zhao Jia meant, pointed at Zhao Jia at the moment, and then said in an inquiring tone: "Looking for shrimp?" ”

"Zhao Jia, I'm not looking for shrimp!" Zhao Jia corrected helplessly.

Seeing Zhao Jia's appearance, the girl's face turned red, and then she called a few more tentatively, and finally although the pronunciation was still a little inaccurate, at least she could hear that she was called Zhao Jia. At this time, Zhao Jia pointed at her again and motioned for her to say her name, only to see the blonde girl hesitate for a moment, and then finally spoke: "Agnes. Bertha. ”

"Bertha?" Zhao Jia asked tentatively according to the other party's pronunciation, because when the other party said his name, there was obviously a gap in the middle, and according to custom, he thought that the second half was the other party's name.

"Agnes!" The blonde girl Agnes corrected, as they were used to, with her name in front of her.

"Agnes! Great, it looks like we all know each other's names. Zhao Jia was satisfied at the moment, although he only learned the name of the other party, but this also shows that this Agnes is not exclusive to herself, which will lay a good foundation for future communication.

Next, Zhao Jia began to have some basic communication with Agnes, such as the other party's age, hobbies, etc., although the information he got was not very accurate, but he could obviously detect that Agnes had relaxed his vigilance against himself, and he was willing to tell himself many things, but unfortunately because of the language barrier, their communication was not too deep.

Just when Zhao Jia and Agnes were having some basic communication, Steward Lu, who had gone out, finally returned, followed by a group of people, including Song people and Tu people, and even Tianzhu people and big cannibals. Then I saw Steward Lu step forward and say, "Childe, because I don't know where this woman is from, I found all the interpreters I could find!" ”

Steward Lu was afraid of exposing Zhao Jia's identity from the title, so he changed the title to Gongzi, Zhao Jia nodded after hearing this, and then motioned to Agnes to say a few words, but what he didn't expect was that as soon as Agnes's words came out, the dozen or so interpreters behind Steward Lu all frowned, and no one understood her words, which made Zhao Jia's heart sink, he was worried about this situation before, because Europe was still very strange to them, and the trade between the Great Song Dynasty and Europe was also transited by the big food merchants. Therefore, it is normal that no one here in Nanyang Port understands Agnes's words.

However, when Zhao Jia was disappointed, she didn't expect Agnes to suddenly say a few more words, although she still couldn't understand it, but Zhao Jia felt that the pronunciation of her words was obviously different from before, it seemed that she should have changed to another language, and when she saw that no one understood these interpretations, she actually changed several languages in a row, which surprised Zhao Jia, but she didn't expect the other party to understand so many languages at a young age.

When Agnes finally spoke a language, she saw that the eyes of a bearded old man in the translation lit up, and he said a few words to the other party in a quick tone, and the girl replied in the same language, and a happy smile appeared on her fair face.

Zhao Jia was also overjoyed to see this, and Steward Lu was also very knowledgeable to let the other interpreters go on, and then introduced to Zhao Jia: "Childe, this is the famous interpreter Yi Kela in Nanyang Port, don't look at him as a Tianzhu person, but he understands our Song dialect, and is also proficient in more than a dozen languages. ”

"Hello Childe, Ekola greets you!" Yi Kela is also an old man, and seeing that even Steward Lu, a figure who speaks well in Nanyang Port, is respectful to the young man in front of him, he naturally knows that the other party must be from an extraordinary background, so he preemptively salutes.

"You're welcome, Ikora, can you help me ask where she's from?" Zhao Jia immediately commanded Yi Kela.

Hearing Zhao Jia's command, Yi Kela agreed, and then asked Agnes a few words, and Agnes also answered accordingly, but Yi Kela frowned slightly after hearing this, and turned to Zhao Jia and said: "Childe, she said that she is from the Holy Roman Empire on the other side of the sea, and I have also heard of this country, but it is quite far away from here, and you can only get there through the territory of the big cannibal, and it seems that there is no sea route to get there." ”

"Sure enough!" Zhao Jia also secretly rejoiced when he heard this, he had heard his father say before, Europe is now a very powerful country, it should be this Holy Roman Empire, as for the sea route to get there, it is not nothing, but you need to bypass the African continent to reach, before Hu San said that Agnes She came to the South Seas by boat, which made him wonder in his heart, could it be that the other party actually bypassed the African continent?

"Yi Kela, can you ask her again why she ended up in the South Seas, and by what route she came here?" Zhao Jia commanded Yi Kela again at the moment.

After hearing this, Ikora asked Agnes a few words again, and the other party also answered very cooperatively, while Zhao Jia had been observing the changes in Agnes's expression to judge whether she was lying, but to his disappointment, the expression on Agnes's face was very calm, and there was nothing abnormal.

"Childe, she said that she was originally a nobleman of the Holy Roman Empire, but because the family offended another great nobleman, the whole family was wiped out, leaving her to escape to the sea under the protection of a team of loyal guards, but she didn't expect to encounter a storm, causing them to lose their way at sea, and then after a few months of sailing, I don't know how to get here, and then I met pirates, and was caught in Nanyang Port." Ikola reported again at this time.

Agnes's explanation is not too flawed, especially when she was caught in Nanyang Port in the end, it is also in line with what Hu San said before, which shows that she at least did not lie about this matter, but I don't know why, Zhao Jia always feels that Agnes does not seem to be telling the truth.
