Chapter 472 Soon, a rumor spread on the ship

The helmsman came over and said excitedly: "Captain, I told you this, this ship is going too fast. It's like something is pushing us forward."

The captain nodded subconsciously.

In the early morning, many passengers came out on the deck one after another.

They all noticed something was wrong.

"Why is the Victory so fast? Could it be that the Ministry of Industry has improved the ship?"

"That's impossible. If there is a new invention, it will definitely be published in the newspaper."

"So what do you think happened? Did you see a ghost?"

"Pfft, pfft, stop talking nonsense, or be careful of the water ghost coming up to catch you."

The people's discussions were endless.

Soon, a rumor spread on the ship.

There is a revengeful ghost underneath pushing the boat forward, trying to rush to Fuso Island for revenge.

Lu Li: ...

The people have a very rich imagination.

Only then did she realize that she seemed to be sailing too fast.

So in order not to cause panic among the crowd, she did not continue to speed up.

Five days later, the Victory arrived at the port of Fuso Island.

The port was empty at this moment. No official staff were here at all because it was not yet the day of arrival. The families of the people on the ship did not show up at the port either.

Everyone looked at each other, and no one dared to get off the boat.

I was afraid that if I went down, I would become the substitute of the murderous water ghost.

"Mom, why did it arrive so soon this time?" Jing Yiyi looked at her mother with some confusion.

Yu Shutong glanced at Lu Li. She was no longer a concubine in the harem and could no longer hear the Crown Princess's thoughts. She had no idea what she was thinking.

But this time the ship was moving very fast, probably because of the Crown Princess.

"Maybe the gods are helping us and want us to go home early to visit our relatives." She smiled and rubbed her daughter's head.

After hearing this, Lu Li nodded secretly.

[Yu Shutong is still good at talking. I am not some water ghost who wants to take your life. ]

"Then let's get off the boat quickly. I miss my eldest and second brothers." Jing Yiyi's eyes were full of excitement.

"I got a lot of gifts, I want to surprise my eldest and second brothers!"

"Okay." Yu Shutong smiled.

She looked at Lu Li and whispered, "Miss Jiu, shall we get off the boat?"

"Okay." Lu Li and his group were the first to get off the boat.

Seeing that nothing happened to them, the people followed them down one after another.

Lu Li went straight to the princess's mansion.

"Who are you? You are not allowed to enter the princess's mansion without permission." The guard at the door immediately drew his sword and stopped Lu Li.

This was the guard that Lu Yao promoted later. He had never seen the grown-up Ninth Princess, so he failed to recognize Lu Li.

Jing Luobai took his daughter home, and Yu Shutong accompanied Lu Li to the princess's mansion.

She stepped forward and said, "This is the Crown Princess."

The guard at the door was shocked and immediately knelt down to apologize.

"I am blind and blind. Please punish me, Your Highness the Crown Princess."

"It's okay. You just did your job well. Why should I punish you?" Lu Li waved her hands and was not angry.

"Your Highness is merciful." The guard breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing that the servant behind him seemed to be going to report, Lu Li hurriedly said, "Don't tell the eldest sister that I'm here. I want to give her a surprise."

Hearing Lu Li say this, the servant stopped in his tracks.

"The eldest princess must be in the greenhouse now. Your Highness, please follow me." Yu Shutong took the initiative to assume the responsibility of leading the way.

She often comes to the princess's mansion and is very familiar with it.

"Okay." Lu Li nodded and took Lu Can to find the eldest sister.

The rest of the people stayed in the flower hall waiting.

They soon arrived at the greenhouse. Lu Yao was studying hybrid fruit seedlings so absorbed in his work that he did not notice the arrival of Lu Li and the others.

"Imperial elder sister! I'm coming!"

Lu Yao was startled when she heard Lu Li's crisp voice.

She covered her chest, took a deep breath, turned her head and found it was Lu Li.

I froze there on the spot.

"Xiao, Xiaojiu?" She looked at Lu Li in disbelief, thinking she was dreaming.

"It's me, eldest sister. I'm here to see you." Lu Li flew into her sister's arms and held her waist.

"Sister Huang, why have you become thinner again? Your waist is so thin that I can wrap my hands around it. Is there no delicious food here? When I return to the capital, I will have someone bring you some delicious food by boat."

Lu Li gestured at her sister's waist with her hand and started muttering.

Lu Yao held the person in her arms, and it finally felt real.

My sister really came to me.

After hearing what Lu Li said, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "All the good things on the island are in the Princess's Mansion. I have no shortage of food. I have given birth to three children, and my waist is not as thin as you say."

"I don't care, I just think you've lost weight." Lu Li snorted and let go of her sister.

"Yes, yes, I've lost weight." Lu Yao nodded and followed her words.

"Why are you here?"

"Don't the eldest sister welcome me?" Lu Li pursed her lips, looking as if she would cry in front of her if she dared to nod.

Lu Yao said with a straight face, "Nonsense, how could I not welcome you? I was so surprised that I thought I was dreaming."

Lu Li reached out and pinched Lu Can's face, dragging him in front of the eldest sister. "Ahhh, it hurts, Ninth Sister, what are you doing?"

"Royal sister, look, Can'er said it hurts. It's not a dream, it's real." Lu Li looked at her sister with a smile.

Lu Can was in so much pain that his eyes were filled with tears: Sister Nine didn't love him anymore and she actually pinched him to prove that it was not a dream.

Lu Yao burst out laughing.

"You are already eighteen years old, why are you still as naughty as when you were a child?"

A helpless smile appeared on her face, and then she touched Lu Can's face.

"It won't hurt if I rub it, Sister Royal."

"Thank you, Sister Huang." Lu Can blushed immediately.

When he was born, the eldest sister of the Emperor was already stationed in Fuso Island.

The two only see each other during the Chinese New Year and are not very familiar with each other.

That's why he was a little reserved when he saw the eldest princess just now.

He didn't expect that the eldest princess would touch his face so affectionately and care for him so gently.

When Lu Yao saw Lu Can’s blushing face, his smile deepened.

Lu Can is two years younger than her eldest son An An. When she saw him, she naturally treated him as her own son.

"Let's go. This is not a place to talk. Let's eat something and talk at the same time." Lu Yao held Lu Li with his left hand and Lu Can with his right hand and led them to the flower hall.

Yu Shutong took the opportunity to resign.

Lu Yao nodded and asked the maid to send her out of the house.

…

"To the eldest princess."

Seeing Lu Yao, everyone in the flower hall hurriedly saluted.

"Get up, no need to be polite." Lu Yao asked them to stand up with a smile.

Her eyes fell on Fengqi.

She knew almost everyone present, except this man.

He had an excellent appearance, and Lu Yao immediately thought of him as a candidate for Ninth Sister's harem.

Seeing that the eldest sister was staring at Feng Qi, Lu Li said, "I picked it up."

Then he pointed at Tu Susu and said, "I picked this one too."

Lu Yao didn't know whether to laugh or cry. The ninth sister was still continuing the habit of going on incognito visits with her father as she did in the past, picking up people as she walked.
