Chapter 771 Fairy Temple
Xiao Yulang was shocked when he heard the news. For him, Miss Chu was special. Even if she didn't meet her in this life, she would be a lifelong concern.
He was about to answer, but Jing Yuan suddenly changed his mind, "Forget it, I have decided. It is more safe for me to go in person. Uncle, you and the Prime Minister can stay and manage the government for me." After thinking about it, he still felt uneasy.
, now that she has fallen into the hands of pirates, how can he feel at ease if he doesn't go there himself?
Xiao Yulang was startled and said: "Your Majesty, isn't this inappropriate? There are only a few thousand pirates at most. You are making a big fuss by sending an army of 50,000 to encircle and suppress them. You have to go there in person. Isn't it too flattering to them?
?I'm afraid the courtiers will have objections."
"Yes, Your Majesty, it is enough to leave this matter to General Xiao. You can just stay in the palace and wait for the news with peace of mind. Besides, Miss Chu is extremely smart, so she will be fine." He stood aside without speaking.
The Prime Minister finally spoke. He heard that Chu Xia was willing to go into a tiger's den to save a boatload of people, and he admired her endlessly. Not only her courage, but also her intelligence and wisdom were unmatched. With such a person
Such a woman is indeed rare, and only such a woman is worthy of being their queen. Not only is she smart, but she is also caring. This is not the case for everyone.
Anyone can do it.
However, Jing Yuan insisted, "Don't say anything, I have already made my decision. I don't feel at ease until I see her with my own eyes. I will leave the major affairs of the DPRK and the envoys from various countries to you."
The two knew the emperor's temper and couldn't persuade him. They believed that with the emperor's ability, the pirates couldn't hurt him, but it was unclear whether he would gain anything from his visit.
For the emperor who was about to get married, instead of preparing for the wedding in the palace, he went to annihilate the pirates. The people admired their monarch from the bottom of their hearts. Especially recently, they heard that the pirates at sea were more rampant, and a ship was almost hijacked by them.
Fortunately, a smart and bold girl took action and rescued them, but the girl's life and death are now unknown. They really hope that the emperor can completely eradicate them this time, eliminate harm for the people, and save the girl from the sea of fire.
The emperor is able to sacrifice his own ego and take the safety of the world as his own responsibility. He is truly a wise ruler. They deeply feel that having such an emperor is a blessing to the people and the country.
Furthermore, in order to commemorate the girl who sacrificed herself for others, those who escaped from the ship spontaneously contributed money and efforts to build a temple and statue for her. Because they did not know the name of the girl, everyone gave her
She was named Fairy, which suited her temperament. The temple was called Fairy Temple.
The fairy is carved according to the appearance of Chu Xia. People who come to visit and worship are all amazed when they go in. If not for other reasons, just because of her immortal appearance, they should go in and kowtow a few times and burn a stick of incense. What's more,
What's more, from the respect and gratitude at the beginning, people began to pray to her, and some even asked her to give her a son... Of course, this is all for another time. Let's get back to the topic.
At this time, the emperor who was far away at sea had no idea that his selfishness had been praised by the people and he had become a wise and wise king. He also had no idea that Chu Xia's kind thoughts could cause such a big confusion.
The movement made her famous throughout her life.
Combat at sea is not as good as on land. The first thing to choose is that the soldiers must not be landlubbers, nor can they vomit as soon as they get on the ship. But there is no need to worry about these, because Xiao Yulang has the skills to control the army, and everything will be unobstructed regardless of sea or land.
After receiving the news, preparations were made overnight. The ships and armaments were all top-notch, not to mention Xiao Yulang's well-trained training and strict military regulations. Even if the enemy suddenly attacked, there would never be any confusion.
Not only that, Shigure also trained a group of sea eagles to specially survey the maritime market, which is comparable to modern satellite scanning.
Jing Yuan stood on the deck, his silver hair fluttering wildly in the sea breeze. The hem of his black brocade robe fluttered and slapped his body. At this time, he was like a statue, standing still and quietly.
There was no expression on her angular face, and her deep eyes were looking straight at the flying eagle in the sky. Over the years, there have been so many battles, big and small, but never once have I been so nervous as now, just because of her. One more moment.
She was even more dangerous. He really couldn't bear it. Things that were not under his control, this woman definitely had the ability to drive him crazy.
Suddenly there was a sharp cry from the sky, and all the sea eagles flew in the same direction.
Jing Yuan's eyes darkened, and he ordered in a deep voice that all ships should sail in that direction. He was sure that Haiying must have discovered something!
At the same time, Chu Xia, who was busy with everyone on the island, also saw a strange phenomenon in the sky. Are these sea eagles? Why haven't I seen them before? And their calls are also very strange.
He asked confusedly to Zhao Fei, who was busy and sweating next to him, "Brother, do these sea eagles often appear here?"
When Zhao Fei heard this, he looked at the sky in surprise. He put a hand on his eyebrow to make an eye mask to avoid the dazzling sunlight. Sure enough, there were several sea eagles flying in the sky. Moreover, these sea eagles seemed to be very regular and definitely not accidental.
At this time, Qin Feng ran over in a panic, panting and saying: "Brother, it's not good, a pair of officers and soldiers are coming from a distance, rushing in this direction, there are countless ships, it seems that they have a lot of background."
Everyone was horrified when they heard this. They all looked at their boss in panic. The imperial court must have sent troops to encircle and suppress them. If they were caught, wouldn't they all be dead?
"Brother, let's run away quickly?" Qin Feng said eagerly.
"Yes, brother, let's escape." Everyone also meant the same thing. If they were really caught by the officers and soldiers, they would all be dead.
"Can we escape?" Chu Xia was a little worried. With so many people in the army, they must be well prepared. With these people, compared with an army, aren't they just throwing an egg at a stone?
"We can escape. With our many years of experience at sea, we know that there is a waterway that they cannot find. But even if we escape, where should we go?" Zhao Fei looked helpless. They are used to being pirates.
People who have been arrested have been registered with the government. Even if they escape, they may not be able to survive.
As long as she can escape, Chu Xia is relieved now. No matter why these officers and soldiers suddenly came to encircle and suppress her, it must have something to do with Jing Yuan. When she was first caught by them, she hoped that he would come to save her, but now she wants to
Avoid him. Now that they have escaped, what's the point of meeting again? And with that guy's temper, she is worried about whether her life will be protected if he is caught.
"As long as there is a road, let's leave here first. I will have a way to arrange everyone's lives after we get out. But we can't lose the fruits of our labor these days. Our future lives will depend on them."
Hearing Chu Xia's words, everyone felt relieved for the time being. Zhao Fei and Qin Feng also felt relaxed. I don't know why they just believed in this adopted sister. Although she was a woman, she was more knowledgeable than men, so she said
It can't be wrong.
"Okay, everyone, hurry up and get ready. The women and children should get on the boat quickly and go first. The men will carry all these things to the boat. Sister, you can go with them." Zhao Fei's arrangements are in order, and he is worthy of being the boss.
In the end, just in case, he decided to let Chu Xia and the female relatives go first, while he and everyone else protected them.
"Brother, don't worry about me. I'll go with you. You should go and give instructions to everyone first. You don't know how to handle these things." Chu Xia didn't plan to leave first because there were many fragile things here and she was afraid of carelessness.
If careless men accidentally break it, their hard work will be in vain.
Zhao Fei wanted to say something else, but Qin Feng pushed him and urged: "Brother, stop being such a mother-in-law. What can Chu Xia do if she is with us? Even if something happens to us, she will be fine.
After all, she was captured by us, and she is not our accomplice. The government will not do anything to her. If we drag on any longer, none of us will really be able to leave."
Zhao Fei heard the same thing, so he stopped talking nonsense and hurriedly made arrangements.
As expected of those who have lived at sea for many years, they know the environment here very well. In less than a moment, everyone was relocated and sailed smoothly on the pirate ship, avoiding the eyes and ears of the officers and soldiers.
When Jing Yuan's army arrived here, they saw that "the building was empty" and only an empty frame was left, and they were immediately angry.
"Your Majesty, their people have just left, and the tea is still hot." Lei Lei, who followed out, walked up to the Emperor and reported with a solemn expression.
After taking the steaming cup of tea, Jing Yuan's face was so cold that it could turn into ice. He clenched his fingers into a fist and squeezed it lightly, and it suddenly turned into powder and slipped from between his fingers.
"They have just left and haven't gone far. Let's chase them separately. If there is any news, send a signal." Jing Yuan gave the order and hurriedly chased down the mountain, not wanting to waste another moment.
His galloping steps suddenly stopped, and he felt something under his feet. Jing Yuan lifted up his black short boots, and there was a sparkling thing under his feet. When he saw clearly what the thing was, his eyes suddenly flashed, and a ray of light shot out.
.
Bending down to pick up something on the ground, it turned out to be Chu Xia's earring. She always carries some strange things on her body, like the hairpins from before, and the earrings she brought back this time. Unlike here.
Women wear earrings, earrings and the like. Chu Xia thinks they are cumbersome and jingle, which affects her work. She likes simple ones, like this earring, which is exquisite and small. He once carefully studied the workmanship of this earring.
, the details are impeccable, definitely not something people of their time can make. Even if those jewelry are expensive and beautiful, compared to hers, the workmanship and design are far behind.
