Even though Hengxi had never dealt with the government office in person, he knew that even if it was just the fourth-rank prefect Xiong who led the team to set out, it would be impossible for him to meet everyone, let alone the number one man in the world now!
It's to show off one's wealth!
Hengxi became a little excited as he thought about it, and leaned against the window frame in the southeast corner, "The Grand Princess must like you very much."
Xianjin smiled and said, "Maybe it's because of Mr. Qiao's favor."
Hengxi frowned and shook her head, "No, I just like you very much. If it was for the sake of Miss Qiao, it would be very generous of her to just ask us to kowtow on the deck. She wouldn't have to meet us in person and talk to us aimlessly."
The person on this card never talks nonsense!
The words just now were rambling, and there was no discernible purpose or code behind them.
Well, it's like when a powerful sister meets a familiar younger sister and they chat casually, in a relaxed and calm manner.
Xianjin scratched his head and tilted it happily.
She didn't know why either.
Twice.
Every time she met Princess Bai'an, she would easily shed bitter tears and couldn't help wanting to get close to her. Even just getting close to her and talking would make her extremely happy and comforted - she was accustomed to life and death in the later life, and developed a habit that was both good and bad, which was that her relationships with people were a little passive.
For example, Chen Fu, because Chen Fu showed his love for his stepfather, Xian Jin dared to go through fire and water for his stepfather;
For example, Chen Jianfang also had a moment of affection for him. To Xianjin, worldly obstacles were like bubbles on the sea, which could not stop the little mermaid, let alone her, a national-level Ba Duan Jin athlete. Why did this relationship inevitably end in tragedy?
Because of Chen Jianfang’s waiting, because of the gap between them, and because of her passivity and indifference.
She needs to see the other person's complete, strong, and choking sincerity before she dares to take her heart out.
Perhaps it was because the surgeries she underwent in her later life were too frequent and brutal, so she valued her hard-earned heart even more.
But when it comes to Princess Bai'an, Xianjin takes the initiative to get closer to her, and can't help but want to be closer to her.
Is it because of admiration for strength?
Xianjin pursed his lips.
Maybe?
Awakened by the horn, the ships sailed one after another along the surging Yangtze River, sailing downstream with the wind.
Hengxi saw the large man in a red robe standing with his hands behind his back on the bow of the "Yiyin" next door, and said affirmatively, "Master Qiao must like you very much, too."
Xianjin jumped up immediately, "Nonsense, we are friends!"
"This is the first time I've been personally received by a third-rank official." Hengxi said expressionlessly.
"We are friends! Good friends!" Xianjin emphasized again.
"This is the first time that a third-rank official has personally received me in a very kind, patient, and polite manner."
"We are close friends! Close friends! Do you understand? Like Su Dongpo and Foyin! Su Dongpo and Huaimin! Li Bai and Wang Lun! Tao Yuanming and fish!"
Su Dongpo and Foyin have a yin-yang relationship, while Su Dongpo and Huaimin have a relationship where they stay up late at night and pry people awake.
Li Bai and Wang Lun had a friendship that they bought with money;
I don’t know what the relationship between Tao Yuanming and fish is for now, but it sounds like a jingle - Tao Yuanming, red carp, donkey... or something like that.
Anyway, they are not "close friends" of the same species.
Hengxi glanced sideways and raised an eyebrow, his eyes full of distrust. After a moment, he leaned softly to Xianjin's side, "Okay, okay, my dear friend..."
I hope you can still be so tough on your wedding night.
hehe.
......
The days on the boat were completely different from the river flowing below the cabin - very regular and calm.
Every two days, the ship would dock for an hour to purchase vegetables, fruits, daily necessities, etc. Except for the nobles on the first three treasure ships, ordinary people were not allowed to disembark.
Qiao Hui has never been an ordinary person.
Whenever Xianjin arrived at a port, a tall eucalyptus tree would grow on the bow of his ship.
In the limited time, give Xianjin either a sugar man, a beautiful kite made of colorful paper, or a bowl of refreshing fish noodles.
Yes, a bowl.
Hengxi didn't expect the fish noodles of a third-rank official, but it was indeed a bit too much to take only one bowl.
Hengxi sneered in his heart, leaned softly to Xianjin's side, and said in a delicate voice, "Ah, did the Marquis Zhongwu bring you food? Woohoo, I was busy in the small kitchen all morning, kneading dough and boiling soup, and I used all the fruits and vegetables I saved from the past two days, just to cook a beautiful bowl of vegetarian noodle soup for you!"
The little girl was delicate and cute. Xianjin had no idea what she was saying. He was about to push the fish noodles away, but when he looked up, he saw Qiao Hui's drooping eyelids and tightly pursed lips.
“Eat…eat all!”
Xian Jin made up his mind and gobbled up two bowls of noodles with the soup in no time. He felt the soup was about to rise to his throat!
Hengxi picked up a handkerchief and wiped the corners of Xianjin's mouth carefully. He glanced at Qiao Hui provocatively and leaned against Xianjin, "Which one is better?"
Xianjin: "Hiccup——"
I really can't remember which one is better.
All she knew was that she was pregnant, and she had a bowl of Suzhou fish noodles and a bowl of carefully cooked vegetarian noodle soup. In order to have a smooth delivery, she didn't eat much for two consecutive meals.
