In the backyard of a small courtyard in the harem of the prefecture's palace, one can see a swath of red flowers.
Luo Chuan was lying on a rattan rocking chair, swaying with his feet and looking sideways at Siqi who was busy among the flowers.
At this time, Siqi finally no longer wore the red armor, and no longer had the two golden daggers on his waist. Instead, he was wearing a loose and comfortable short shirt and trousers. He was squatting among the flowers with scissors, picking out the blooming flowers.
Prune them back so that they can produce more flowers next year.
"Why didn't I realize that she had such a hobby when we were in Zhongjing City?" Luo Chuan turned to look at Luo Jiang, who was lying side by side on the rocking chair with him, "Or do you actually know?"
Luo Jiang nodded, "It's not strange for little girls to like flowers. It's just that now that we have money, free time, and a yard like this, we can do this."
Luo Chuan laughed loudly and said, "With the small monthly salary she gets as the village chief, can she be called rich?"
Luo Jiang also laughed, "It's much better than when we were in Zhongjing City."
Luo Chuan simply put his feet on the bottom edge of the rocking chair and stopped rocking. He stared at the white clouds in the blue sky changing shapes. He was in a daze for a while, and then said, "At this time, Chen Jingzhi and the others should start fighting...
..."
"Didn't you say you don't want to do these things today?" Luo Jiang said.
"I don't want to think about it, but it's hard to control it," Luo Chuan said.
"Yesterday I heard Zhao Wuji say that some details of the Naya Water Alliance have been basically finalized and will be signed soon. As long as Guang County doesn't cause trouble for us, what can a mere Liu Feixin in Lutou City do?
Big waves," Luo Jiang was extremely confident.
"That's right..." Luo Chuan thought for a while and did not continue to ask.
"How is Gao Shixian? I heard he was seriously injured," Luo Jiang asked casually.
"He said he was able to get out of bed. Then Cao Man told me that he still wanted to come back as a errand in the next few days, so I refused." Luo Chuan was still looking at the clouds, his eyes had no clear focus, and his thoughts were obviously far away.
.
"What about...that B you told me about last time?" Luo Jiang asked again.
Luochuan came back to his senses, shook his head slightly and said, "I thought about it later and still didn't let the ANBU people check it. I just looked through his files. He was also one of the three people my father left for me in the prefect's palace.
One of them, who was originally the minister in charge of the private treasury and library, was sent out to work half a year ago, which gave Meng Fanxing the opportunity to burn a large number of precious ancient books."

He murmured, "Originally, when I investigated Gao Shixian, I just thought, how dare this guy run such a mysterious organization secretly without telling me, but after Gao Liangzui vaguely guessed the truth, I actually didn't want to investigate anymore.
, at that time, I was actually a little happy, thinking that even though she had been dead for more than ten years, he still didn't give up and wanted to do something, and that was enough."
Luo Jiang nodded, "I thought he had given up, so I often said bad things about him when you were growing up. But now it seems... I was wrong..."
Luochuan told him and laughed loudly.
The two of them lay side by side like this and chatted for a long time. The sun was just right and time slowed down a bit.
It wasn't until the palace attendant named Dong Yu'er came silently behind Luo Chuan and spoke, interrupting the pleasant time between the two of them, "Your Majesty, Yin Huayu is asking for an audience outside the door."
"Oh? Flower language is back," Luo Chuan saw Siqi, who was busy pruning branches, looking towards him with some surprise, and couldn't help but smile, "Let her in."
Dong Yuer bowed slightly and walked away silently.
After a while, a handsome young man wearing black clothes appeared in front of Luo Chuan. She had fair skin and picturesque features. Even though the accessories all over her body were a bit old-fashioned, they could not conceal her vitality.
When Yin Huayu saw Luo Chuan looking at her with a half-smile but not a smile, she smiled, stood up on tiptoes and spun around in a circle, and said abruptly, "What's going on? Master, you don't recognize me anymore?"
Luochuan joked, "I will recognize you even if you turn into ashes."
At this time, Siqi had already trotted over, pulled Yin Huayu up and down, looked up and down, then smiled and hugged her, "You have grown taller!"
Yin Huayu also smiled and hugged Siqi, "I'm always running and jumping around these days. I can eat and sleep, and I've gained some weight."
"You can't tell I'm fat, but I think I'm a little thinner." The two girls, Siqi and Huayu, held hands and started chatting as if no one was around.
When Luo Jiang got up and went into the house, the two stopped talking for a while.
Siqi brought out two stools, and the two of them sat next to Luochuan's rocking chair and chatted about various things.
Luo Chuan was also surprisingly patient. He just listened with his eyes closed. When he finally talked about the water battle in the Han River between Guangjun and Jiangzhou Navy, he opened his eyes slightly and asked, "This Yu Wei you are talking about seems to be the same."
It's quite famous, I heard this name when I was in Zhongjing City."
"Naturally," Hua Yu looked at Luo Chuan and said, "Nowadays, there is a saying in the world called the 'Four Young Masters in Troubled Times'. The most famous ones are Yun Bailou, the young master of Guangjun, and Yu Wei, the king of Xiaohai in Jiangdong. This Yu Wei has been in the navy since he was a child.
He grew up here and was able to lead an army to sea at the age of twelve. In addition, he was born with water and his talent was astonishing. It is said that he also created a set of water skills, which is very impressive. According to the news we got from several serious channels, Yu Wei
The elite navy of Jiangdong County he leads is the only one of the three ace navy of Jiangzhou in the East China Sea that can compete head-on with Dongyi Snake Island. Taking this Han River water battle as an example can better prove this point."
"Didn't the envoy from Guangjun say some time ago that Guangjun defeated the Jiangzhou Navy on the Han River? From what you said, it seemed like the Jiangzhou Navy had won," Siqi said in surprise.
Luo Chuan had no doubts. On the other side, Luo Jiang, who took out a teapot and several teacups from the room, also returned to the rocking chair and sat down, pouring himself tea while listening quietly.
"Sometimes it is difficult to decide the outcome of things like victory or defeat," Hua Yu turned around and said to Siqi, then looked at Luo Chuan and said, "In order to find out what is closer to the real situation of this battle, Qiu Feng went to Guangjun and Guangzhou today.
The three cities in southern Hanoi County have invested a lot of money."
"First, we learned from Guangjun that the Guangjun Navy attacked the temporary garrison of Jiangzhou Navy at night and achieved a great victory on the Han River, sinking 23 Jiangzhou warships and damaging 18. The number of warships from Hanoi Port
"It is judged that Guangjun did lose eighteen large warships," Hua Yu said, "but based on my understanding of the Jiangzhou navy, twenty-three warships were lost in the first battle. Even if it was a night attack, it sounds a bit...
Unbelievable, they bought information from the three southern cities of Hanoi County, especially Dan Port, without hesitation to expose the identity of a spy. Sure enough, the battle report from Guang County was exaggerated. Compared with the Jiangzhou Navy warship that temporarily docked at Dan Port during the expedition,
In terms of quantity, the number that returned was a full thirteen less, and many of them still had obvious signs of burning. Combining the two, the basic situation of that battle becomes clear."
She looked at Luochuan and said slowly, "The Guangjun Navy attacked the Jiangzhou Navy at night and used fire attacks. They sank thirteen Jiangzhou warships, burned dozens of warships, and damaged 18 of their own. This is indeed true.
