Mian Shu lowered his eyelids and wagged his tail in boredom. The water around him was so fast that there was not even a single fish or shrimp. There was only Uncle Qian and an attendant beside him. He looked around and tried to slow down the speed of the parade.

"Your Highness, if you feel tired, you can ask the attendant to take you back."

As soon as the words fell, more than a dozen mermaids suddenly surrounded the empty sea.

Mian Shu suppressed his eyes and had no choice but to swim back honestly.

He looked at the attendant who accompanied Uncle Qian to pick him up, with a half-smile: "Xiao Jiang, I haven't seen you for a long time."

The attendant smiled resentfully: "This subordinate has not seen His Highness for a long time."

"I'll have to thank you for coming all the way to pick me up when I go back."

The attendant trembled and said: "This is what the subordinate should do. This is nothing to the subordinate. Uncle Qian is the hardest one."

Mian Shu snorted softly, her tail whipped up a wave, and she wanted to leave but couldn't. Wang Qingye must have been very anxious when he couldn't find him for so long.

At this time, Wang Qingye was outside the Ruyi Building of the Tang Inn, trying to figure out how to get in.

Nanping Hou lived in the inn of the Tang family, but Ruyi Building stopped accepting guests from the day before Nanping Hou entered the city. Nowadays, there are only people from the Hou family in the huge inn, and there are heavy guards outside the inn, and the guards are very strict. , If there is no warrant, there is no way to get in.

Wang Qingye walked around the door, thinking that Mianshu had legs, and would not show his tail if it wasn't his intention, where did the scales on the man's hands come from, and this man was a little strange, he had the same physique as Mianshu.

He thought about it, and went back first.

At that time, Mianshu was injured and had to pull out a lot of scales. Firstly, it was used as medicine to heal the wound earlier, and secondly, the scales were flying. If the scales were not removed, new ones would not grow back.

He collected all the dried scales in a box. Mianshu healed quickly before, and the scales were not used up. The scales in a small box collided with each other and made a crisp sound, and they gathered together to emit silvery white light. Then I can recall Mianshu's silvery tail.

"Hope you're all right."

Wang Qingye slid his fingertips over the smooth scales and let them slide into his palm.

"I handed over a greeting card and talked about your affairs, but Mr. Jing directly refused."

Tang Suxiao took a sip of tea, glanced at Wang Qingye, his eyes moved from his face to his waist, he had noticed that there was a red string bell hanging on Wang Qingye's body, but today there were a few more pieces on the red string. The fish scales are exactly the same as those on Jing Zhi's neck.

"What is this?" He wanted to take it to have a look, but Wang Qingye sideways dodged it: "Since you have something to do, why are you trying to grab Mr. Jing?"

Wang Qingye said: "One more is more perfect. Since he doesn't see me, do you know when he will come out?"

Tang Suxiao frowned: "I advise you not to provoke him."

Wang Qingye promised: "Don't worry, I won't provoke him, I just need to know where he is and don't talk to him."

"You have nothing to follow him just to have a look at him?" Tang Suxiao looked at Wang Qingye suspiciously: "Didn't you fall in love with Mr. Jing?"

"If you want to think like this, I can't help it."

Tang Suxiao glanced at him sideways: "I can tell you, don't make trouble. He will go to the theater at night."

"I know, then you don't go with me, I'm afraid it will be accidentally exposed that you told me about him."

Farewell to Tang Suxiao, Wang Qingye went to squat in the theater building early in the morning, and when it was around Xu time, he saw Jing Zhi enter the theater building, followed by a young man with an evil face, no need to guess That person is waiting in Nanping.

He didn't deliberately go up to say hello, he called the clerk to settle the bill, went straight downstairs, flicked his clothes and walked past the two of them.

"Why do you keep looking at that person just now?"

Jing Zhi put away the look in his eyes, turned to smile and said, "I just think that man is uncommonly tall, and he is about the same size as Lord Hou."

Nanping Hou looked back at him again: "Such a physique has not joined the army."

"Hou Ye is wise and martial, and the world is at peace now. Could it be that he will be dragged into the barracks when he sees a strong and healthy man?"

Nanping Hou looked at Jing Zhi with a slightly relaxed expression: "This Marquis is prepared for danger in times of peace."

........

After Wang Qingye went back, he sat in the courtyard all the time, it was getting late, presumably Jing Zhi would not come today.He lay down on the chair that Mianshu used to lie on, the cool chair soaked into his vest, as if it still had the warmth of a small fish cub.

He sighed, hoping to find clues about Mianshu from Jing Zhi.

The breeze was blowing, and he was lying on the chair and almost fell asleep. The sound of fish jumping in the water tank in front of the court woke him up.

The river fish that had been salvaged earlier had not been processed yet. I was so busy these days that I almost forgot about throwing them in the water tank.

The river fish swam away, and a large clam lay under the tank. In the stable water of the tank, a section of off-white flesh was exposed from the clam.

Wang Qingye scooped up the mussel, before Mianshu carried the mussel back all the way, saying that there must be pearls in the mussel.He has not broken open to look, the river is full of sand and rocks, the clam shell opened and spit out a lot of sand in his palm, eat a lot of sand, after many years, pearls really grew, but it is too small, only the little finger Size, bead surface is not smooth.

Mian Shu found out that such pearls were unnecessary in the sea before, so he swung the pearls into the water, and after washing off the dirt, he could barely see them.

He put the pearl in the palm of his hand and looked at the light shining between his fingers under the oil lamp. He split his fingers, and there were a few grains of gold sand between his fingers, which were very thin and small, perhaps just now. The mud and sand in the clam shells are mixed, but I didn't expect there to be gold sand.

I think there are two old trees with white flowers in the place where I picked up the clam last time. If the clam was not washed there suddenly by the river, it means that there is really golden sand in that section of the river. There will be a lot of gains, but now he has no intention to do anything other than find Mianshu.

He threw the pearls he took out into the box, lay down on the bed and slept very lightly all night, only falling asleep for two hours.

He got up at dawn the next day, tidied up briefly and then went to wait for Jing Zhi casually, but he didn't expect that she would come to the door by himself.

"I don't know if Mr. Lang can give up his love and pass the fish scales over to me."

Wang Qingye opened the courtyard door, Jing Zhi cut straight to the point, Shi Shi found it so early, he must have not had a good sleep last night.

"It's okay to cut off the love, but you have to tell Mr. Caomin where the fish scales come from."

Wang Qingye remembered that day when he saw the fish scales on Jing Zhi's neck passed through the hole and had been dried in the sun. It was only a day and a night before Mian Shu disappeared. The scales were quickly peeled off and made into ornaments. After much deliberation, he found that there was only one possibility, that is, Jing Zhi knew Mian Shu, and he might also be a mermaid, but he didn't know whether this person came to pick him up. The ones who brought Mianshu back home were the same group of sharks who captured Mianshu back then.

Mian Shu's fish scales were hanging on his waist and ostentatiously passed through the market. If Jing Zhi knew Mian Shu, he would definitely be interested in it and come to him on his own initiative. Looking at it now, his guess is mostly right.

For this reason, he also stopped making troubles with others, and said coldly: "I just want to know where Mianshu is!"

Surprise appeared in Jing Zhi's eyes, and he grabbed Wang Qingye's sleeve: "Why do you know the name of His Highness? Where is he?"

Wang Qingye's eyebrows twitched, this person actually acted more anxious than him, he shook off the person's hand: "Could it be that you took him away and asked me instead."

"I haven't seen His Highness before. If I saw him, I would definitely..." Jing Zhi paused and said, "Are you really looking for Your Highness? He has also been to Xiacheng?"

Seeing that Wang Qingye didn't answer, Jing Zhi was anxious: "You said it!"

"You don't reveal your identity, why should I tell you?"

"Then who are you! There are so many scales in His Highness, what have you done to him!"

Wang Qingye felt a headache, now it can be confirmed that Jing Zhi and Mian Shu are acquaintances, and the two accuse each other like this, and they can't find out why, he tried his best to calmly say: "I picked Mian Shu back from the sea, I picked it up from the sea. I took care of him for a while. He used to be a mermaid, and I kept him at home. Later, I grew legs and ran outside every day, so I sent him to the academy. You met Tang Suxiao, and he I’ve met Mianshu too, if you don’t believe me, you can ask him about it.”

"It's just that Mianshu disappeared suddenly the day before yesterday. I searched all over to no avail. I saw his fish scales on you. In a hurry, I thought you took Mianshu away. You and he are of the same family. Is there a way to help me find it?" Mianshu?"

Jing Zhi suddenly clenched his palms tightly, and his eye sockets suddenly became moist. If he had come a few days earlier, would it be possible to meet the little Highness?

"I... am indeed a mermaid, but I have been away from the deep sea for many years." Jing Zhi suddenly said seriously: "If what you say is believable, then I will definitely do my best to find His Highness."

"Why am I lying to you right now? If it's for money, the brat can still be alive and kicking. Why do I have to raise him for so long? I don't have a day to worry about."

Wang Qingye said with some distress, and pressed his temple: "The most important thing right now is to find him, if something goes wrong......"

He didn't want to say anything after that.

"I know His Highness's aura, so I will go out to look for it today, but I have to keep a low profile. If Lord Hou finds out, things will become very troublesome."

Wang Qingye responded, and the two exchanged some pleasant messages, and then went on to look for fish.

There is one more person to look for, and it is Mianshu's kind, which can be regarded as an extra layer of insurance. Wang Qingye is slightly relieved, hoping to find the clue as soon as possible.

Five days later.

"King Shark, Empress Shark, Qian has already taken His Royal Highness outside the palace!"

As soon as the words fell, a golden fish tail shook, but jumped out in the blink of an eye.

"Feng Ling can't wait, if it's a day or two later, I'm afraid I have to go to the city to find Mianshu."

Mian Shu gently wagged his tail, looking at the Mermaid Palace where everything was back to normal, as if being taken away by the rebels was just a dream, he had been in Xiacheng for half a year, and was arrested again from the Mermaid Palace Two months, Yisuan has been away for so long.

Before he could finish his melancholy, he was suddenly caught in a big golden tail. Looking at the familiar face with white teeth in front of him, he suddenly laughed: "Brother."

Feng Lin hugged the little mermaid cub tightly in his arms: "I'm so worried about my brother."

After hugging, Feng Ling let go of the little fish again, looked the fish up and down, looked at the watery face of the fish, he looked better than before, he didn't see the slightest downfall, and before A cub that was only so short has now grown a few inches.

"Mianshu, you've grown taller?" Feng Lin hugged the cub, and he could lift it high before, but now he seems to be struggling to lift it up: "In the past, my parents and I were worried that you were born small and not tall. Woolen cloth."

Mian Shu pushed Feng Lin's arm: "It's not because you always give me bad food, you strangle me so hard that I can't breathe."

Feng Lin let go of his hand, and saw the Shark King and Shark Queen who had arrived late, Mian Shu rushed over and hugged the two of them: "Father, Mother! I miss you so much."

"Really? I heard that some cubs stayed in the city and didn't want to leave, and Uncle Qian had to waste his time to bring them back."

Mian Shu buried herself on Shark King's shoulder: "They are talking nonsense."

"Okay, okay, they're talking nonsense."

Shark Empress looked at her little son distressedly, stroked her hair and then her face: "Come in, let mother take a good look."

After reuniting after a long absence, Mian Shu pretended to yawn to get rid of the care of her family, and happily returned to her bedroom.

In fact, one month after he escaped from the dungeon, the rebellion in the Mermaid Palace subsided, but because he could not be found, the rebels were interrogated for a long time, thinking that the rebels were lying until they found his presence in the city. Then he was relieved.

He looked at the huge dormitory, everything remained the same, piles of pearls and gems as big as eggs were piled up, and deep-sea fish and shrimps that were kept in cages and could be eaten at any time were all his favorites before.

After wandering around the hall, he lay down on the wide and big bed, sighed leisurely, maybe Wang Qingye was used to living in the small house where he could see the end at a glance, such a big and empty bedroom called him Feeling lonely, besides the delicious sea fish, he can't taste any other flavors.

Now he wants to watch the moon, sleep on a recliner, drink a drink with the night breeze blowing, chat with strange people in the live broadcast, and wait for Wang Qingye to prepare dinner for him.

He also wants to eat steamed garlic oysters, vermicelli scallops, grilled squid, cured pork meat, grilled chicken hot pot. …

"Your Highness seems unhappy?"

The little mermaid attendant guarding the dormitory tilted his head to look at His Highness who was wandering in the sky, and asked a question tentatively.

"Why are there so many mermaids in the hall?"

"His Royal Highness said that he was afraid that you would have any accidents again, so he specially called more mermaids around."

Mian Shu pursed her mouth, don't be afraid that he will sneak out again, Uncle Qian is really narrow-minded, he will tell his brother everything.

"Your Highness, do you want to use pearl powder to beautify your tail?"

"Hey, don't crush it." Mianshu hurriedly got up to stop the attendants from crushing the big pearl, and he carefully put it back into the big pearl box, and then took it to Wang Qingye, so he couldn't be happier: "You go and get Xiaojiang for me, and he will accompany me all the way when he comes back, specially to relieve my boredom, let him come and talk to me for a while."

"Yes."

After a while, the attendant led Xiao Jiang in who was in a hurry: "You all go out first, Xiao Jiang and I will stay and talk alone for a while."

"Yes."

Seeing that the mermaids had gone out, Xiao Jiang knelt down for Mian Shu: "Your Highness, I really didn't knock you out. I told you that this is not good. Uncle Qian insisted on doing this. His old man has always been stubborn." , His Highness also knows."

"Oh, is it? But can you be sure you're not helping?"

Xiao Jiang laughed dryly: "The subordinates also obey orders."

"I know it's not easy for you." Mianshu put her hands behind her back, imitating Wang Qingye's style of holding her hands behind her back: "But it's impossible for me to forgive you!"

Xiao Jiang complained endlessly, knelt and dragged him to Mian Shu: "Your Highness, from now on Xiao Jiang will definitely follow your lead, and I will do whatever you say."

"Okay, I want you to do one thing for me. If you do it for me, I will forget the past."

"Your Highness, just say, whether you want five boxes of pearls or ten boxes of pearls, or ask me to pick shark fins, Xiao Jiang will definitely do it for you."

"Who wants these." Mian Shu said, "Come here with your ears."

After hearing this, Xiao Jiang looked disheartened: "Huh? I'm afraid this is not very good."

"are you going?"

"I'll go, I'll go." Xiaojiang looked at Mianshu who was fiercely about to eat fish, and sighed silently: "It's all up to His Highness's arrangement."

Half a month later, Wang Qingye came out from Jing Zhi's place with a dejected look on his face. He searched all over a hundred miles around, but there was no news of him even stabbing a few children's nests around him. He guessed that it was very likely that Mian Shu went back to the sea, and he said earlier that he would find a way to accompany him back, but he just went back without saying a word, maybe the person who arrested him before came to Xiacheng.

He was upset and he didn't have a good rest these days, and his whole person became a little dull.I wandered back to Jiangchun Building, and just now at the door, the waiter greeted me: "Master, did you have an appointment with a guest in the restaurant today?"

"how you said that?"

"A young man came just now. I saw him dressed in tatters. I thought he was a beggar who came to beg for food, but he insisted on seeing you. I was afraid that I might miss the job, so I let him wait. If it wasn't for you If you are a guest, I will call out immediately."

Wang Qingye's eyebrows moved slightly: "Forget it, take me to have a look."

"Yes. I let him stay in the back kitchen, and the guys in our store who come and go are watching."

Wang Qingye followed the waiter into the restaurant, and when he entered the back kitchen, he saw a man in a linen short jacket observing the surrounding environment. It was no wonder that the waiter thought he was a beggar, and it was fine to wear simple clothes. Although the weather in Xiacheng was warm, It's not like showing your shoulders at this time of year.

"Are you looking for me?"

When the man heard his voice, he still couldn't recognize him. After looking around, he seemed to be sure: "You are Wang Qingye?"

"You don't know me when you come to find me? Who told you to come?"

"Is there a place where I can talk to you alone?"

"Come with me."

It was the first time for Xiao Jiang to act alone. Previously, Uncle Qian brought them to find His Highness and let them hide in the sea. The mermaids who only had experience in the city went to the city to find His Highness, but the last time he brought His Highness. He was only allowed to go to the city after leaving. He used to be His Royal Highness's playmate when he was young. He originally thought that he would come to see His Highness to play emotional cards, but Uncle Qian knocked His Highness unconscious without hesitation.

He stayed in the sea all year round, and only went to the city alone once, so he was inevitably a little confused.

After entering the private room, he quickly took out the small brocade box he had brought with him all the way: "This is for you."

Wang Qingye took the half-palm-sized brocade box suspiciously, and opened it casually, but the light in his eyes changed. Inside the box lay quietly a pearl the size of a free-range hen's egg. It was round and smooth, emitting a soft glow under the sunlight. The luster, and a silver bell is placed beside it.

How could he not recognize this bell? He bought a pair at the beginning, one was worn on the boy's wrist, and the other was tied by the boy on his belt.

These days of long-cherished and night-sleeping, now he can finally put his heart back in his stomach, with a smile on his face: "What about others?"

Seeing the light in the man's eyes, Xiao Jiang sighed secretly. He was so excited when he saw a pearl. If he carried all the pearls in his bedroom according to His Royal Highness's intention, he would be so happy.

"Your Highness has returned to the Mermaid Palace safely. His Highness left in a hurry, so he asked me to come back and let you know."

"Then did he say when he'll be back?"

Xiao Jiang looked at Wang Qingye suspiciously: "His Royal Highness's home is in the deep sea, why do you want to come back?"

Wang Qingye was startled, yes, he went home, why did he come back...
