"You insisted on seeing me. Now that I'm here, where are my things?" The voices slowly approached as the oars paddled the water.
Yu Jiao felt that the voice sounded familiar. She glanced at Yu Qizhe and saw Yu Qizhe making a gesture to him to keep quiet.
He quietly got up, opened the curtain and went to the deck outside. The boatman sitting at the bow saw him come out and opened his mouth to speak, but Yu Qizhe chopped his neck with a sharp knife and knocked him down on the deck with very light movements.
Yu Jiao recognized the voice. She grabbed Yu Qizhe's hand and wrote the word "Prince" on his palm.
Yu Qizhe tapped his chin lightly, and seeing the coldness in Yu Jiao's eyes, he placed his palm on Yu Jiao's hand and patted it gently in a soothing manner.
"Your Highness, the stuff is kept at Zhengtong Bank, this is the bank." Another slightly flattering voice said, "I didn't teach my son well, and my youngest son accidentally committed a murder. I heard that the family had some friendship with the Minister of Rites Song Ling, and they wanted to punish their son. Please, Your Highness, have mercy on me, who has a son in my old age, and don't let me die young."
"The incident happened in your Lianghuai, which is your place. Even if Song Ling wanted to intervene, he could not control your Huai'an. Why do you need to come to me for help for such a small matter?" Zhu Yu said lightly, as if he didn't care about the murder case that the man mentioned.
The man who had spoken earlier smiled bitterly and said, "If the case was being tried in Lianghuai, I would not dare to bother Your Highness. That family had already sent a secret letter to the capital, and I was unable to stop it. I have received news that Song Ling has secretly brought the evidence to the capital, and that family wants to report the case to the Dali Temple."
The voices of the two people became clearer and clearer, and there was a rustling sound from the lotus leaves, as if their pleasure boat was getting closer. Yu Jiao was a little nervous holding Yu Qizhe's hand. Although she wanted to kill Zhu Yu, if she really bumped into him at this moment, she was afraid that Zhu Yu would kill her and Yu Qizhe to silence them. Who knew what shameful deal they were making.
Yu Qizhe remained calm. He raised his hand to remove the hairpin on Yu Jiao's head, made a undressing gesture to her, and then tore off his outer shirt, revealing his lean chest.
Yu Jiao realized what he was going to do, and without caring about anything else, she also took off her outer coat, leaving only her white undershirt. She hesitated, and was about to take it off with all her strength, but Yu Qizhe stopped her, leaned over and pressed her under him, and twisted her waist lightly.
Yu Jiao let out an unexpected cry and looked at Yu Qizhe in astonishment. Yu Qizhe leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Does a cat call for sex?"
Yu Jiao's face turned red, and she heard the sound of paddling on the lake getting closer and closer. She suppressed her embarrassment and squeezed out a sound from her throat.
Yu Qizhe leaned on her, completely covering her petite figure, and deliberately made loud breathing sounds. Their pleasure boat began to shake, and after the sound spread out, the talking on the lake stopped abruptly, and it seemed that there were only their two voices in this world.
After a while, the sound of paddling oars was heard again, getting closer and closer to their pleasure boat. Yu Jiao's heart rose to her throat. Maybe it was because she was too nervous, but she was a little voiceless and couldn't make any sound from her throat. Yu Qizhe seemed to sense something, and looked down at her, lowered his head slightly, and kissed her lips.
The pleasure boat swayed even more violently.
When Yu Jiao was almost suffocating from the kiss, she heard a few malicious laughs.
"There are actually people in the capital who dare to do good deeds in a place like this in broad daylight. They are really brave." said the local official of Huai'an.
The sound of oars was heard again, and the pleasure boat on the opposite side seemed to have left. Zhu Yu's teasing voice came, "It looks quite interesting, don't you think, Mu Bai?"
After a long while, Cui Mubai replied in a low voice. As the pleasure boat went away, his voice was a little unclear.
Yu Qizhe raised his head, stood up, and grabbed Yu Jiao's coat and handed it to her. Then he put on his own coat and whispered to Yu Jiao, "We can't stay here for long. Let's leave first."
Yu Jiao nodded, quickly tidied her clothes, and glanced at the unconscious boatman, "How do we get back to shore?"
A hint of murderous intent flashed in Yu Qizhe's eyes. The boatman had seen his and Yu Jiao's faces. If Zhu Yu sent someone to investigate, they would inevitably be exposed.
He glanced at the reeds on both sides of the river, and said, "Don't worry about it. People will naturally go back when they wake up."
Then he handed his hand to Yu Jiao, "Let's go first."
"Jump into the lake?" Yu Jiao didn't understand what he meant, but she still put her hand in Yu Qizhe's palm. Yu Qizhe held her in his arms, stood on tiptoe on the boat board, and jumped up. At the same time, with his other hand, he took out a silver ingot from his sleeve and hit the boatman's larynx with his internal force.
