No man can bear the temptation of a woman dressed so seductively and waiting for him to take a bath.
Lin Xuan had been patient before, but he was ready to accept Guo Caiyue as his concubine, so naturally he no longer needed to be patient.
The pale pink bellyband is embroidered with two lifelike mandarin ducks playing in the water.
Lin Xuan reacted instantly.
The only drawback is that there is a dark black scar the size of a copper coin on his left shoulder.
Lin Xuan raised his hand, shook the water drops on it, and then stretched it over.
Guo Caiyue groaned, but did not dodge.
When Lin Xuan's hand touched her, her whole body trembled and her breathing stopped.
"Does it hurt?" Lin Xuan asked, stroking the wound on Guo Caiyue's shoulder.
"Wha...what?" Guo Caiyue didn't come back to her senses for a while.
"Did I say it hurts?" Lin Xuan asked again.
"No...it doesn't hurt." Guo Caiyue said.
Lin Xuan didn't speak. He just touched the wound just to check her wound.
Although it's not completely healed, it's pretty much better.
Lin Xuan's hand slipped away, causing Guo Caiyue to breathe quickly.
Lin Xuan felt that his bellyband was in the way, so he reached out to Guo Caiyue's smooth back and moved it a few times. Suddenly his bellyband slipped off and fell to the ground.
Guo Caiyue stopped moving her hands in shame, but she did not stop Lin Xuan's movements.
She was very worried before, thinking that Lin Xuan wanted to take her as his concubine because she saved Lin Xuan.
Because she was waiting for Lin Xuan to bathe along the way, Lin Xuan not only didn't touch her, he rarely even looked at her.
Now it seems that Lin Xuan is not just out of gratitude, he is still interested in her.
If Lin Xuan knew what Guo Caiyue was thinking, he would definitely feel very wronged.
He doesn't look at it, he doesn't dare to look at it.
Even this was already very uncomfortable to hold in. If he looked at it a few more times, he was not sure he could bear it.
Lin Xuan now had the urge to execute Guo Caiyue on the spot, but he still reluctantly restrained his urge.
The occasion was inappropriate, and both of them were injured.
Although he's almost healed, it would be fun if the wound burst open at some point.
Lin Xuan withdrew his hand and did not dare to continue. It felt good, but it was uncomfortable to hold it in.
Guo Caiyue was a little emotional, and she was mentally ready to sacrifice herself.
Unexpectedly, Lin Xuan continued to bathe honestly and didn't do anything to her until she finished washing and put on her clothes, so she looked at Lin Xuan with a somewhat resentful look.
"Is it because I saved the Marquis that he wanted to take me as his concubine?" Guo Caiyue asked her doubts.
Lin Xuan was stunned and asked: "Why do you ask that?"
"Master Hou ignored me along the way, just like that... again..."
She really couldn't say those explicit words.
Lin Xuan burst into laughter and said: "I didn't want you, do you think I don't like you? I took you as my concubine because you saved me?"
Guo Caiyue didn't expect Lin Xuan to speak so straightforwardly. Although she was extremely embarrassed, she still mustered up her courage, looked at Lin Xuan and nodded.
Lin Xuan explained with a smile: "Although I can't tell you that the matchmaker is marrying you, but we should wait until I take you as my concubine. In addition, we have injuries on our bodies. What if we open the wounds?
?”
Guo Caiyue is different from Chun Yue. Chun Yue is his maid. To put it bluntly, she has the obligation to sleep with him.
And Guo Caiyue is a girl from a good family. Even if she wants to take her as a concubine, she has to wait for her grandmother's consent. It would be inappropriate to treat her like this now.
Guo Caiyue was stunned. She thought Lin Xuan didn't like her, but she didn't expect that Lin Xuan wanted to respect her.
At this moment, Guo Caiyue felt moved.
"Okay, don't think too much, come with me to have dinner and go to bed early in the evening. We will leave for Guangzhou early tomorrow morning." Lin Xuan said.
"Master Hou, can I go too?" Guo Caiyue said in surprise.
"I've checked your wound, and it's almost healed. In that case, I naturally have to take you with me," Lin Xuan said.
Although Feng Zhidao died, Lin Xuan always felt that the assassination was not done by Feng Zhidao, or that Feng Zhidao was just used by others.
Lin Xuan had thought about investigating, but he was not familiar with the place in Lingnan, so it would be difficult for his soldiers to find out anything.
More importantly, once he investigates, he will definitely not be able to hide it from Feng Ang.
Feng An had already killed one of his sons. If Lin Xuan didn't give up, he might force Feng An to attack him.
It's not that he's afraid of Feng Ang, it's just that he knows nothing will be found in the investigation, so why bother to provoke Feng Ang again?
Lin Xuan believes that the mastermind behind the scenes will jump out sooner or later, and when the time comes, there will be plenty of opportunities to take revenge.
He wanted to leave Guo Caiyue in Liangde City before because he was worried about Guo Caiyue's injury.
Now that Guo Caiyue is almost well, he naturally doesn't want to leave Guo Caiyue here.
…………
Early the next morning, Feng Ang sent someone to inform them that they would gather at the city gate in half an hour.
Lin Xuan and the others were staying temporarily and didn't have much. Yesterday, he ordered Liu Da to pack it up.
When the time was almost up, Lin Xuan and his party arrived at the city gate.
Not long after, Feng An came down under the protection of a group of soldiers.
"I've made Zichu wait for a long time." Feng Ang said with a smile.
"Old Duke, you're welcome. I've just arrived." Lin Xuan said.
It has to be said that Feng An's city was very deep, and he just lost a son, but there was no sadness at all on his face.
"It's getting late, let's go first." Feng An said.
Lin Xuan nodded, and the group set off for Guangzhou City.
Guangzhou is not very far from Liangde City, we arrived in the evening.
Feng Ang asked someone to help Lin Xuan arrange a place to live, and agreed to go to the dock early the next morning.
After a day of riding, they were very tired. Lin Xuan and Guo Caiyue ate together, rested for a while, and then went to bed.
Of course, everyone sleeps separately.
…
"Zi Chu, this is Guangzhou Port." Feng Ang said, pointing to the port with dozens of ships.
Lin Xuan originally thought that the Guangzhou Port at this time should be very big even if it was not as prosperous as later generations.
However, Guangzhou Port was not as big as he imagined. Instead, it was very small and could only accommodate a hundred ships.
According to legend, during the Three Kingdoms period, Soochow went to sea in Guangzhou and conducted trade with other countries.
For hundreds of years, Lin Xuan thought that Guangzhou Port should be lined with thousands of sails.
Looking at the tranquil blue sea, Lin Xuan exclaimed: "What a great place."
"Whether it is a good place or not depends on Zichu's methods." Feng An said.
"This place will definitely be one of the most prosperous places in the world from now on." Lin Xuan said with a smile.
But that happened more than a thousand years later, and Feng An would definitely not be able to see it.
"I wonder where the dock the old man mentioned is?" Lin Xuan asked.
Feng An pointed to the left and said: "It's over there, let's go there now."
Most docks are built on the waterside. Of course, those docks for building small boats do not have to be on the beach.
But with ancient technology, the docks for building sea-going ships must have been built on the seaside to make it easier for ships to launch.
The shipyard Feng An mentioned covers a very large area and there is a small port next to it.
"I mobilized some craftsmen from other places. Now there are more than 500 skilled shipbuilders in this dockyard. Even this dockyard was given to Zichu," Feng Ang said.
"Thank you so much, old man." Lin Xuan said.
"Let's go in, I will introduce you to the steward here." Feng Ang said.
