Jiang Lusheng didn't hear any movement from Lan Shuang for a long time. He looked down and was about to ask her what she was looking at when Lan Shuang suddenly turned over and sat up, covering his mouth with her hand.
Jiang Lusheng raised his eyebrows and looked inquiringly.
Lan Shuang whispered in his ear, "Something's wrong with the people on that big ship over there."
Jiang Lusheng followed her gaze and saw the big ship parked quietly, surrounded by a group of small boats. It looked nothing special. In addition, there were many pleasure boats around it, with the sounds of stringed instruments and laughter, making the ship seem even more inconspicuous.
However, if you look closely, you will find that not only the big ship did not move, but the small boats around it were also motionless.
Jiang Lusheng narrowed his eyes slightly, and suddenly realized something. He touched Lan Shuang's face, turned his head to kiss her, and whispered as he kissed her, "Don't look. Those small boats are on guard. They are in the same group as the big ship. If they find us, they will alert the enemy."
Lan Shuang withdrew her gaze, put her arms around Jiang Lusheng's neck, and pecked him on the lips.
The person watching from the boat sneered, "Oh, where did these wild couples come from? They're kissing each other here with so many people watching. Aren't they ashamed?"
"Why are you so embarrassed? It's pitch dark, and we're the only ones who can see it. Who else can see it? You too, why are you staring at them? Are you making things difficult for yourself?"
"They were looking over here just now, and I thought they discovered something. Now it seems there should be no problem."
"Forget it, leave them alone. Keep an eye on the other ships around and don't let them get close."
…
The prying eyes disappeared, and Jiang Lusheng held the person in his arms and whispered, "They have let down their guard and are not suspicious."
Lan Shuang nodded, her lips still slightly warm, but her tone was very calm, "The powerful families in Kyoto are not allowed to maintain private soldiers, let alone secret guards and assassins. These people have unknown origins, and there are quite a few of them. We must investigate thoroughly."
"The Wanshou Festival is coming soon, so we really need to check."
Jiang Lusheng's eyes were gloomy.
The Wanshou Festival is the emperor's birthday, which is on the fifteenth of this month. Today is the third day, and there are still twelve days.
Because of the sudden appearance of the assassin, Lan Shuang and Jiang Lusheng lost interest in boating. After a while, they let the old woman dock. The old woman was a little panicked, "It's not even an hour yet. What are you dissatisfied with, young lady and young master?"
Lan Shuang comforted him, "No, I'm just a little sleepy and want to go back and rest."
She took out a silver ingot from her purse and placed it in the old woman's hand. "No need for change. We are very happy tonight. Thank you very much."
The old woman's eyes were filled with tears of gratitude, and she kept declining, "This is too much, too much!"
"It's not much, just keep it."
Without giving her a chance to refuse, Lan Shuang directly pulled Jiang Lusheng off the boat.
It wasn't time yet, and Meng Yu and the others hadn't arrived yet. Only one guard was left waiting by the river. When he saw Lan Shuang and Jiang Lu giving birth, the guard was stunned for a moment, then he came to his senses and chased after them, "Your Highness, Young Master, why did you get off the boat so soon? Are you uncomfortable on the boat?"
Lan Shuang shook her head and said, "Go call Meng Yu over. I have something for her to do."
"yes."
Meng Yu was enjoying his meal, and was confused when he was suddenly called out. When he saw Lan Shuang, he quickly wiped his mouth and asked, "What do you want, Your Highness?"
Lan Shuang waved at her, whispered a few words in her ear, then stepped back and asked seriously, "Remember? Don't alert the enemy."
Meng Yu's alcoholic smell suddenly dissipated, and the night wind blew her into a cold sweat. She hurriedly bowed and said, "I will remember this. Your Highness, rest assured, I will get to the bottom of this matter!"
After saying that, she turned and left in a hurry.
The guard followed Lan Shuang and asked in confusion, "Your Highness, do you want to continue your stroll or return home?"
Lan Shuang glanced at Jiang Lusheng beside her, squeezed his palm and said, "Let's go back home. It's getting late."
Jiang Lusheng nodded, "Okay."
"The younger one will drive the cart."
The guards moved quickly, and the carriage drove over. Lan Shuang and Jiang Lusheng got on together.
The carriage first stopped at the Duke of England's mansion. Huaixiu, who was sent back earlier, wandered at the door, extremely worried.
Hearing the sound, he immediately looked up and saw Jiang Lusheng getting off the carriage. Huaixiu was overjoyed and hurried to meet him, "Sir, are you okay?"
Lan Shuang, who was sitting beside the carriage and watching Jiang Lusheng leave, couldn't help laughing when she heard this. "What could possibly happen? I'm a jackal, a tiger, or a leopard. How can I eat your son?"
Huaixiu then discovered Lan Shuang and was so frightened that he quickly bowed and apologized, his face flushed with embarrassment.
Jiang Lusheng glanced at him and said to Lan Shuang, "Alright, stop scaring him. He's timid."
Lan Shuang beckoned him, and Jiang Lusheng moved closer, not knowing why. The next moment, Lan Shuang bit him on the chin, "Don't scare him, this time I'll really eat him."
Jiang Lusheng laughed and scratched her cheek with his fingers. "Okay, go back and eat next time."
Lan Shuang stepped back and looked at him quietly while sitting in the carriage.
Are you eating this properly?
Only after the carriage left did Huai Xiucai dare to breathe. He almost suffocated himself. He asked with a sad face, "Sir, did I say something wrong? Will the prince be unhappy?"
"Don't worry, the prince is generous and won't bother with you."
Jiang Lusheng raised his hand and tapped him on the head. "But don't talk nonsense next time. The prince and I were just boating on the river. What are you thinking about?"
Huai Xiu held her head in her arms in grievance, muttering, "Isn't it because the prince has a reputation for being a playboy? The young master is so handsome, I'm afraid the prince can't control himself."
Jiang Lusheng "..."
He looked at Huaixiu deeply and questioned his soul, "Did you read some messed up stuff behind my back?"
Huaixiu was shocked and blurted out, "How did you know that, sir?"
Jiang Lusheng: "...I didn't know it just now, but now I know."
Huaixiu “…”
After returning home, Jiang Lusheng took a shower and lay on the bed, reading the notebook he had found from Huaixiu with great interest.
He suddenly traveled to a world where women were dominant. He was unfamiliar with many things there, so he read some storybooks to understand the local customs and practices.
However, as he watched, he discovered that in some things, the country where women are dominant was quite different from other places.
He studied hard and opened the door to a new world.
…
Lan Shuang had no idea what Jiang Lusheng was learning. When she returned home and was taking a shower, Meng Yu came back and stood at the door, saying in a heavy voice, "Your Highness, I have found something."
"Huh? So fast?" Lan Shuang was surprised. Meng Yu was quite reliable.
888 "Host, don't forget that Meng Yu used to be Lan Ling's bodyguard! How could there be any useless people around His Majesty?"
Lan Shuang suddenly realized, "She felt wronged for following me. She has never been able to display her true talents."
She got up from the tub, dried herself, put on her clothes, casually put on a robe, came out and opened the door, "Come in and talk."
