Chapter 162 Chapter 162 Like
Because of Yu Li's order, the attacking ship was finally confiscated by them.
Generally when encountering such a situation, we would repel the enemy and quickly leave the scene to avoid being pursued by enemies who would prevent them from escaping.
But now...
The boat was not in a hurry to leave. Meng Xingzhou led people to clean up the people on the opposite boat. They tied them up one by one, interrogated them, and after finding out their origins, they threw them directly into the grass on the shore.
Although the injuries on these people are not fatal, if they are not treated in time, the consequences will be disastrous.
Of course, they were not so kind as to help these people deal with it. The reason they didn't kill them was because the Crown Prince's wife didn't kill them.
Tie them up and throw them into this desolate wilderness. Whether they live or die depends on their luck. Even if they survive, they will become disabled.
"Deputy General Meng," a soldier whispered, "Our lady is kind-hearted and didn't kill anyone."
Everyone on the ship was checked, and indeed no one was dead.
The others nodded. They could all see that Yu Li only wanted to injure them and make them unable to move, but had no intention of killing them.
If it were normal times, it would be considered as a woman's kindness, especially for soldiers like them who have fought bravely on the battlefield. If they don't kill the enemy, the enemy will kill them. In every war, they must make every effort to kill the enemy and reduce the number of enemy troops.
But thinking of the battle just now, no one dared to think so.
Madam is not going to the battlefield now, so there is no need to use the battlefield rules to govern her behavior. And since Madam didn't kill them, it must be because she is kind!
Madam, you only beat them to a pulp and spared their lives. How is that not kind?
Meng Xingzhou laughed. After spending more than half a month together, he had some understanding of Yu Li's personality.
He said: "Madam is indeed kind-hearted. As long as you don't provoke her, she treats everyone the same."
How can one not respect such a lady?
After dealing with the people on the ship, more people were assigned to deal with them, and the two ships continued to set off.
Yu Li and Fu Wenxiao also went back to rest.
After dawn, Yu Li and others were having breakfast when they saw Meng Xingzhou coming over with a bulging package.
The package is heavy and I don't know what's inside.
Meng Xingzhou said, "Prince, Madam, General, these are the things we found on the ship."
When the package was opened, gold, jewelry and other items were scattered everywhere, and the whole place was filled with glittering treasures.
Yu Li narrowed his eyes slightly and asked in surprise: "There are so many things on the ship? Who are they from?"
"They are a group of bandits in the nearby river." Meng Xingzhou said, "Someone gave them 1,000 taels of gold and asked them to block the general from going north in this river."
Fu Wenxiao and Fu Lieyun's expressions did not change. They had guessed this and were not surprised.
Yu Li, on the other hand, looked solemn. "How could there be so many pirates here?" She looked at the gold and jewelry in the package again. "They are so rich."
Meng Xingzhou couldn't help laughing, "Madam, these were robbed by them, so they are naturally not short of money."
Yu Li pondered for a moment, then sighed, turned to Fu Wenxiao and said, "The mountain bandits and river bandits in Nanjun Province have been almost wiped out. I wonder when Master Xuan will cooperate with the government in other provinces. There are too many bandits. If we don't wipe them out, it will affect social security."
Seeing that the bandits in other provinces are so rich, she really wants to come and suppress them.
Fu Wenxiao comforted him, "It's okay. There's a long way to go. We'll finish it in the end."
Yu Li hummed.
Fu Lieyun and Meng Xingzhou looked at them silently, speechless.
The two now know that Yu Li has been working with Xuan Huaiqing to suppress bandits in the past two years, and that all the bandits in Nanjun Province have been basically wiped out by them.
When Fu Lieyun and his men went south, they found that the bandits here had basically disappeared after entering Nanjun Province. At that time, they thought that the Zhennan Army was stationed there, and the bandits fled upon hearing the noise.
Later I found out that it wasn’t.
What surprised them even more was that the main force in suppressing the bandits was actually Yu Li.
This made them more intuitively understand how strong she was. After seeing her easily break into the opposite ship last night, they understood why Xuan Huaiqing wanted her to help suppress the bandits.
To be honest, Meng Xingzhou was eager to take his wife to the army. Not to mention fighting on the battlefield, but at least he could follow her to suppress bandits.
The confiscated gold, jewelry and other items were finally stuffed by Yu Li to Fu Lieyun.
"Brother Lie, you can use it to feed the soldiers." Yu Li said bluntly, "Give the soldiers something good to eat. They have worked hard to defend the country."
Fu Lieyun: “…”
Although what she said was inappropriate and sounded a bit disrespectful, Fu Lieyun knew that she had no bad intentions.
At this moment, he felt a little touched.
Meng Xingzhou also choked, then said with emotion: "Madam, thank you! In fact, the court attaches great importance to the Fu family army, and they will give enough military pay every year. They dare not deduct the military pay of the Fu family army at will."
If the Fu family army had not guarded the northern border, the cavalry of the Northern Di tribe would have headed south and headed straight for the capital.
This is also the reason why the saint chose Fu Lieyun to take over the Fu Family Army after the death of the Duke of Zhenguo, and he would not allow anyone to embezzle the military pay of the Fu Family Army at will.
Daqing really cannot do without the Fu family army.
After Yu Li and Fu Wenxiao left, Meng Xingzhou said with emotion: "General, the madam is so kind..."
She knew that the Fu family army defended the country and knew that it was not easy for the soldiers. She praised and respected these soldiers who were called crude by the world.
How to keep them from getting touched?
Fu Lieyun smiled for the first time and nodded, "Madam is indeed very good. Brother Xiao has found a very good wife."
If my adoptive father were still alive in heaven, he would definitely be very happy to know that my younger brother Xiao had married such a wife, right?
What worried the adoptive father the most before his death was his only son. He knew how dangerous his situation was in the capital. No matter how much the saint favored him on the surface, it was all just an illusion and could be easily destroyed.
Sure enough, as soon as his adoptive father died, the "death news" of the Prince of Zhenguo also came.
There were too many people who wanted Fu Xiao dead. Even if he had never been involved in the affairs of the Fu Family Army, those people did not dare to let him live, for fear that the Fu Family Army would rebel.
-
In the cabin, Fu Wenxiao suddenly hugged the girl beside him and pressed her in his arms.
Yu Li was held in his arms, her face tilted to the side with a little redness.
It's fine if he just cuddles her, but lately he's been taking it too far by holding her on his lap, treating her like a little doll. It's really...
"Ali."
His voice sounded muffled, instantly making Yu Li forget everything else and touch his back.
"What's wrong with you?" she asked in confusion, "Who bullied you?" His voice sounded quite aggrieved, which made her heart rise.
Fu Wenxiao buried his face in her neck, rubbed her delicate skin, and said softly: "Nothing, I just think A-li is so nice..."
Yu Li put his hand on his back and felt that he was fine.
She was tempted by the batch of gold and jewelry, but when she saw Fu Lieyun, she thought of the soldiers who were defending their country, and felt that they needed it more.
She is just a person. Even if she can spend a lot of money, she can only spend it on eating, drinking and having fun, and she can't spend much money.
"Ali, I used to have some private property. I will give it to you when I return to Beijing in the future." Fu Wenxiao kissed her face and said with a smile, "I have quite a lot of private property too."
Yu Li was very surprised and asked happily: "How many are there?"
Fu Wenxiao thought about it and gave a rough number, but even so, it still made her eyes widen.
Her eyes widened in shock: "Xiao brother, you are so rich?"
"Not bad." He said modestly, "The Fu family is a founding hero and has accumulated wealth for generations. My mother was a princess and had a lot of dowry. When my grandmother was alive, she often gave me rewards, as well as rewards from saints..."
Even if he did nothing, the rewards from the elders alone would be a considerable fortune.
Not to mention that the Fu family has many industries and generates a large amount of income every year.
Although his "death" had a significant impact on the Fu family, the saint did not openly allow anyone to take away certain fixed private properties, so they still belonged to the Fu family, and the amount was still considerable.
Yu Li put his hands on his shoulders and said seriously: "Xiao brother, you are really a gold nugget."
Fu Wenxiao: “…”
**
During the rest of the journey, Meng Xingzhou and the others felt much more relaxed and no longer as tense as a string.
Every time they saw Yu Li patrolling the ship, they felt extremely reassured.
When the ship arrived at the next dock, Meng Xingzhou took people to dispose of the ship and sent the silver obtained to Yu Li.
This is a lot of silver, but compared with the previous batch of gold and jewelry, it is nothing.
Yu Li was very happy after receiving the silver. She turned around and whispered to Fu Wenxiao: "Give this money to Jin Niang, and let her buy another boat and form a fleet."
With his own fleet, Yu Jin's business will be able to expand to other provinces, not just limited to Nanjun Province.
"When Jin Niang's business grows, she will have more money and can do more things." Yu Li sat at the table eating snacks and counting on his fingers, "We can set up girls' schools in other places to help girls in need. We can also set up some orphanages to adopt abandoned orphans and the elderly..."
Fu Wenxiao was practicing calligraphy and listening silently, with an irresistible warmth rising in his heart.
He asked, "A-Li, why do you keep thinking about these things? If you make money, shouldn't you keep it for yourself? If you spend it like this, no matter how much money you have, it won't be enough, right?"
Most people make money in order to live a good life and increase their wealth. They will accumulate countless wealth in their hands and will not spend the money so generously.
But she happened to be rich, and she only kept some money for herself to eat and drink, and generously gave the rest to do charity.
"As long as I have enough money, it's fine." Yu Li said as a matter of course, "I have enough food and clothing now, and the remaining money is just sitting there, so why not do something meaningful?"
Fu Wenxiao held the wolf's spear in his hand, wrote a line of words on the paper, and then asked: "What do you think is meaningful, Ali?"
"Of course, it is to make all the people live a good life!"
Fu Wenxiao lowered his eyes, his thick eyelashes trembling slightly, then he turned to her and smiled, "I will."
Yu Li said as he ate snacks.
The dim sum was brought back by Meng Xingzhou when he went to the dock to handle the ship. It is a local specialty and tastes very good, but she still prefers the dim sum made by Fu Wenxiao.
After finishing the snacks, Yu Li said, "Ah Xiao, I want to eat the snacks you made."
Fu Wenxiao put down the pen in his hand, smiled slightly, and then reached out to her.
Yu Li smiled and snuggled into his arms, being hugged by him.
Since the marriage consummation, the two have become closer and closer. He not only likes to hug her, but also likes her to lean towards him actively, which makes him very happy every time. At such times, he will be very easy to talk to and will agree to any request she makes.
Yu Li didn't make any excessive requests, she just wanted him to make some snacks for her.
She discovered that this person actually didn't like to enter the kitchen at all, as she disliked the strong smell of oil smoke in the kitchen. The snacks she made each time were only a small amount, and she never felt satisfied.
But she had no choice. She didn't like forcing others. For example, if someone forced her to do something she didn't like, she would be very unhappy. Putting herself in his shoes, she naturally wouldn't force him to do something he didn't like.
But she really loved the snacks he made.
Fu Wenxiao held her for a while and took her to the kitchen on the boat.
When they saw the two of them go to the kitchen, Fu Lieyun and others were very calm.
The first time they saw Fu Wenxiao enter the kitchen and make snacks for his wife personally, they were quite shocked, but after doing it many times, they got used to it.
Meng Xingzhou whispered to Fu Lieyun privately: "The Crown Prince's wife is so powerful, doesn't she just like the snacks made by the Crown Prince? What's wrong with satisfying her?"
Their prince is smart and capable. He can write well and decide the fate of the world with martial arts. Naturally, he can also enter the kitchen and the living room. Seeing that the prince's wife likes to eat the snacks he makes, you know that cooking is not a problem for him either.
The prince should cook well for his lady, try his best to capture her stomach, and make her dependent on him in the future.
Fu Lieyun was speechless.
Although he also felt that it made sense, there was no need for him to say it out loud, as long as he understood it in his heart.
He coughed lightly, "I didn't expect that Xiaodi's cooking was so delicious. It's a pity that I didn't ask him to cook for us before."
As the oldest sworn brother, he felt it was his responsibility to take care of his younger brothers, and every time they went hunting in the mountains, he was responsible for getting food for them.
He knew at that time that Xiaodi was a particular person, did not like the smell of cooking fumes, and would never get involved in this matter.
But times have changed and now he is willing to go into the kitchen for his wife.
After Fu Wenxiao prepared the snacks, the two of them carried the box of snacks back to the cabin.
Fu Wenxiao made her a pot of tea and asked her to eat some snacks with it to avoid feeling sick of it.
"Not greasy at all!" Yu left and ate the snack happily, "I think I won't get tired of it no matter how much I eat."
The snacks in the box were made to look like lotus flowers and were lifelike, but she didn't feel reluctant to eat them. Instead, she couldn't wait to finish them all.
Somehow, she felt that the snacks he made were not greasy at all, and she could eat ten boxes of them.
It was a pity that he was unwilling to do more, which made her feel very regretful.
After eating snacks, Yu Li held the tea and drank it slowly, squinting his eyes comfortably.
Fu Wenxiao sat beside her and read slowly, turning his head to look at her from time to time, and using a handkerchief to wipe the snack crumbs from her lips. Seeing that she squinted her eyes like a cat, he couldn't help but hold her in his arms and kiss her affectionately.
After a long while, Yu Li pushed him away, then held his face and looked at it.
She laughed and said, "Xiao brother, your face is so red."
Fu Wenxiao hummed softly, "...because, I am very happy with A-Li." Then he hugged her and kissed her again, just wanting to hug her intimately.
The air in the narrow cabin was not circulating and it was extremely hot and stuffy. Even if there was an ice cube in the corner, it only added a little coolness. Once the ice melted, nothing would be left.
Especially at night, Yu Li would be woken up by the heat several times.
Only when I hugged this person did I feel a little bit of comfort.
At midnight, the noise in the cabin finally stopped. Fu Wenxiao put on his clothes, smoothed his sleeves, and went to fetch a bucket of water.
"Ali, wash up before going to bed." He picked up the person on the bed.
Yu Li turned to look at him and yawned, "I'm so sleepy, Xiao Ge'er, aren't you sleepy too?"
Fu Wenxiao's eyes were gentle and he kissed her rosy cheeks. "Not bad."
He was a little sleepy at first, but she had transferred some supernatural powers to him before, so he was still in good spirits.
Yu Li was very sleepy and did not refuse his help. After he cleaned her up, she rolled back onto the bed.
Soon Fu Wenxiao also got on the bed. She went over and hugged his cool body, sniffed his scent, and asked, "Did you take a cold shower just now?"
His body temperature is low, so if he takes a cold shower, he will feel more like a piece of cool jade, which is very refreshing to hug.
He hugged the person and hummed softly.
"Don't do this again." Yu Li muttered, "Mom will scold you if she knows. It's not good to take too much cold water."
Fu Wenxiao touched her face with amusement and said, "Just don't let mom know." He is now a martial artist, so it's okay to rinse her with cold water in the summer because she is afraid of the heat. As long as he rinses her with cold water, she will stick to him and hold him all night.
Yu Li thought about it and said, "...That's fine."
Anyway, she is here, and she can treat him if he feels unwell.
Moreover, she really liked the cool feeling of his body after taking a cold shower, and she wanted to lie on it to cool down.
The two talked for a while, and Yu Li gradually fell asleep.
Fu Wenxiao held her in his arms, not feeling sleepy at all.
During this trip north, because they were trapped on the ship, the two stayed in the cabin most of the time, seeing each other day and night, and became closer and closer, and their relationship grew better and better.
Fu Wenxiao smiled and slowly closed his eyes.
The next morning, Yu Li was awakened by the heat again.
She yawned, and her supernatural power circulated in her body for a moment. Soon she felt refreshed and energetic.
When she got out of bed and put on her clothes, she saw a chair in the cabin and felt a little uncomfortable.
This chair has been used too often recently... But there is nothing I can do. When I am out and about, I don't bring much luggage with me, so many things are inconvenient. I don't want to dirty the bed, and it's inconvenient to change clothes, so I can only sit on the chair...
"A Li?" Fu Wenxiao caught a glimpse of her expression, raised his eyes and looked over, and understood.
He lowered his eyes, and the tips of his ears turned red.
Yu Li turned to look at him and said, "Ah Xiao, can you not sit on the chair next time?"
Fu Wenxiao: "...Then I'll hold you."
Yu Li was confused. What was the difference between this and sitting on a chair? It was also her fault that she couldn't resist the temptation. As long as he smiled at her, she couldn't resist it.
"Don't overwork yourself." Yu Li warned him and transferred some supernatural powers to him.
Fu Wenxiao silently watched her holding his hand. He bent his fingers slightly and held her hand in his palm. He smiled and said, "Why would you be tired? Doesn't A-Li transfer superpowers to me every day?"
Yu Li's expression paused. So the reason why he was full of energy every day was because she gave him supernatural powers?
But she had to give him the supernatural power. She still felt that his body temperature was too low, and perhaps his body was not fully recovered. Although she liked him feeling cool now, she hoped that his body would recover.
She seems to like him more and more...
Yu Li thought about it and couldn't help but look at his face, from his face down, his eyes wandered over his body.
Fu Wenxiao was a little nervous. Although she didn't know what she was looking at, she instinctively knew that it was very important.
After a long while, when she reached out her hand to him, he took her into his arms.
She has a slender figure and always looks particularly petite in front of him.
Because too much food was consumed when her superpowers were restored, even though she tried hard to eat, she still didn't gain much weight.
He has the typical height of a northerner, and although he looks thin, his body underneath his clothes is actually strong and sturdy. After several months of physical training, the muscles in his body have become smooth and firm, and contain great strength.
Yu Li leaned in his arms and heard the heartbeat in his chest.
She listened silently for a while, then looked up and said to him, "I think I like you a little bit."
Fu Wenxiao stared at her blankly, his pupils reflecting her appearance, as if he wanted to lock her tightly in the depths of his eyes.
Then he hugged her tightly, his heart seemed to be paralyzed by something, and his body shuddered and trembled uncontrollably.
"Ali..."
He wanted to say something, but in the end he just lowered his head and gently kissed her forehead.
Gentle and pious.
