Chapter 316 Someone is sabotaging the ship
The little follower lowered his head and said with a wronged expression, "I'm just afraid that you will be furious, young master."
Young Master You was furious and threw him to the ground. "You just wait. Once I catch that guy, I'll teach you a lesson."
After he finished speaking, he turned to leave.
Seeing that it was a misunderstanding, the Third Prince didn't say anything more and turned to go back.
However, just as the Third Prince left...
Young Master You was still furious. "If I can't sit on this boat today, no one else can either."
After he finished speaking, he gestured to his henchman beside him and said, "I'll give you a chance to make amends."
The lackey was overjoyed and quickly said, "Young master, please feel free to give any instructions."
Young Master You looked up at the large ship ahead and said, "You guys find a way to sneak in, then dig a hole in the ship and let the water slowly submerge it."
Upon hearing this, the henchman was astonished. "Young master, this could be fatal!"
Young Master You said with a smile, "Don't worry, this little thing won't kill anyone. Just do it, and I'll give you some money later."
The young follower was somewhat reluctant, "Young master, this..."
Seeing that he was unwilling, Young Master You lowered his voice and threatened, "If you are unwilling to do it, then find a way to return the money that Old Zhang ran off with, otherwise I have plenty of ways to make sure your whole family can't stay here."
The moment family was mentioned, the little follower completely gave up and had no choice but to agree.
Seeing that her little follower had agreed, Princess You smiled smugly, waved her folding fan, and walked away with a beaming smile.
After pondering for a moment, the henchman shook his head helplessly and called his companions to a secluded spot to discuss how to destroy the ship.
Meanwhile, in order not to offend Young Master You, the boat owner arranged another boat for him.
They even made a point of mooring the ship near the one where Du Wanchun was.
On the boat, when Aunt Zhou saw the Third Prince return, she asked him, "What happened outside just now?"
The Third Prince briefly explained, then laughed and said, "That young master made a mistake and came down to us to curse."
Aunt Zhou laughed along, "Luckily it was a mistake, otherwise he might have held a grudge against us even more."
The Third Prince waved his hand and said, "He wouldn't dare. If he dares to hold a grudge against us, I'll make sure the You family never recovers in this lifetime."
He's still a prince, more than capable of dealing with a county magistrate.
Just then, Nan Fengling walked over and said, "Mother, Father, shall we set sail and take a look at the river scenery around here?"
Aunt Zhou looked up as she listened, "Didn't Wanchun say the boat wasn't going to move?"
Nan Fengling smiled and said mysteriously, "We were originally not going to set off, but since we're already on the boat, why don't we enjoy the river scenery along the way? It won't take long to get from here to the ferry downstream."
She and Madam Wu had already discussed it beforehand, and they took the Third Prince and Aunt Zhou to a small village downstream of the river.
Du Wanchun said the boat wouldn't move only to appease Aunt Zhou; otherwise, she probably wouldn't have wanted two pregnant women to ride the boat.
After hearing this, Aunt Zhou wanted to refuse.
However, before she could finish speaking, the ship slowly began to move.
A cool breeze swept through the area, and the river surface rippled slightly.
Aunt Zhou hurriedly went to the deck, stood by the railing and looked down at the boat. She saw the boat heading downstream.
The Third Prince walked to her side and advised, "It's alright. It's rare for the children to come out and play. There are many guards on this ship, so there's nothing to fear even if there is danger."
Aunt Zhou listened and nodded helplessly.
The boat on this side had just left when Young Master You boarded the other boat.
The two ships looked very similar; without careful observation, it was impossible to tell the difference.
After discussing the plan with his subordinates, the henchman secretly went to the shore and boarded the boat.
They did board the ship, but they boarded the wrong one.
They secretly made their way to the bottom of the ship's cabin and began to try to chisel open the bottom of the ship's box.
Young Master You hadn't originally intended to sail the ship out, but upon hearing that the Zhou family's ship had sailed out, he was overjoyed. "Let's go, follow them. I want to see their ship sink with my own eyes later."
Upon hearing this, the servants immediately turned the boat around and chased after Du Wanchun and his group.
