The son-in-law is a thief

Before Ruan Qiniang's boat arrived at Wanshi Port, she saw a huge four-sail blessing boat sailing towards them. This was Gu Ruyang's Jiutian, and He Sansi, Du Yong and others were already waiting on board Zeng Shi climbed directly to the tallest mast, and You Erniang also paced back and forth countless times at the bow.

Gu Ruyang didn't go to the port for nine days, she signaled everyone to go back to Wanshi Port, and it was rare that she offered to go ashore.

Wanshi Port is much cleaner today than the day Zhaoyang set off. The large ships unloading have already left the port, and may have entered a new round of shipping, but there are quite a lot of people on the pier, most of them are businessmen. Some people want to go to sea to pick up goods, or order some berth goods from the boss of the ship running the route.

The four of He Sansi and Du Yong changed boats from Nine Heavens to the port. Compared to Ruan Qiniang's fleet, they ran faster, so they arrived at the pier ahead of time to welcome them. Huo Qishan and Zhaoyang's two maids also followed behind. The general looked angry, but he didn't say a word. After all, Zhaoyang ran away by himself. He only hoped that Zhaoyang would come back intact, otherwise he would dare to turn against Du Yong on the spot.

The sailors on the ship threw the reins to the pier one after another, and Ruan Qiniang ordered someone to drop the anchor, and some other sailors took the springboard and started to build the gangway for disembarking. guilty.Gu Ruyang gave Zhaoyang his last piece of clean clothes. Even though he didn't like Zhaoyang's usual royal demeanor, Gu Ruyang planned to make her look a little more respectable, so he put on the ragged clothes and prepared to disembark.

But before reaching the gangway, Gu Ruyang was grabbed by Zhaoyang.Gu Ruyang turned around, only to see Zhaoyang stretching out a hand, looking at him sincerely.

"Trouble master Gu."

Gu Ruyang wondered why this person had become so pretentious when he landed so soon, but then thought that Xu Zhaoyang's leg was injured and it was not easy to go downhill, and because of the difference between men and women, he could only turn to himself for help.

Gu Ruyang stretched out his hand, and Zhaoyang grabbed it in the palm of his hand, and took two steps forward to join Gu Ruyang's side. It seemed that he didn't feel the staggering feeling caused by the leg pain. Gu Ruyang was a little puzzled, but Zhaoyang couldn't understand it with a smile. After speaking, the two got off the boat holding hands, followed by the sailor and Qin Huan'an, and there were two groups of people standing under the boat, on the left and right were Gu Ruyang's Four King Kongs, and Qian Niuwei led by Huo Qishan and others.

When the two arrived at the pier, it was natural that people from all walks of life greeted each other with greetings. Both of them thought that there was nothing serious about it. For Gu Ruyang, this was indeed a normal thing, and for Zhaoyang, she couldn't take this What is the big deal, since they are all safe and sound, Du Yong suggested that they should go back to rest first, and then make arrangements after two days.

Feng Jian had arranged chariots early on, and Zhaoyang and Qin Huan'an each took one, escorted by Qian Niuwei to go to Gu's mansion, on the way Huo Qishan was aggrieved, and kept complaining about the helplessness of the Gu family Etiquette and arrogance, and said that Zhaoyang is now dressed in commoner clothes, and he is full of distress when he sees it. Even the prince is disgraced, and he doesn't know what kind of punishment he has suffered.

Zhaoyang sat quietly in the car, Huo Qishan heard what he said but didn't take it to heart, but Fengjian and Fengdi were also in the car, and they were naturally as upset as Huo Qishan in their hearts, even when they were fleeing south, Zhaoyang Yang's food and clothing has never been poor, why did he look like this after only two days out in the sea, not to mention the linen clothes, his delicate skin is also much darker.

"No matter how the princess is dressed like this, people can't recognize her." Fengdi complained, "How can this Gu family treat you like this? It's not like I didn't see a storm when I crossed the Qionger Strait. The princess is so embarrassed."

Feng Jian, who has always been prudent, seemed to see Zhaoyang's meaning, she said: "The princess didn't say anything, why do you need to talk too much, didn't you see that Mr. Gu and the princess were holding hands when they got off the boat?"

Seeing Zhaoyang's lips twitch slightly, Feng Jian said again: "The boat that went out to sea this time is certainly not comparable to the boat we crossed the sea. The princess can come back safely, it must be that Master Gu has taken good care of her."

Feng Jian was right in his words, but he didn't guess that it was Zhaoyang's plan to get off the ship. There are many people at the pier. Since the prince arranged for someone to assassinate Huan, he would naturally investigate the results at the disembarkation place. After disembarking, Zhaoyang also expected The two are bound to part ways. How to show the relationship between her and Gu Ruyang in this short period of time, as long as she holds hands and gets off the boat, as long as people see that the closer the relationship between her and Gu Ruyang is, then no one will believe it. The stronger the relationship between the imperial court and Wanshigang.

"This trip to the sea, Master Gu really gave us enough courtesy, so don't say too much. If Gu Ruyang hadn't rescued him desperately, I'm afraid you wouldn't see me and Liulang today." Zhaoyang said, and she pulled away He closed the curtains on the chariot, as if he was not afraid of being heard.

"What?! What does Mr. Gu mean by desperately trying to save him?" Feng Di looked nervous.

"That day was like this..."

After Zhaoyang finished talking about the past two days, a group of people arrived at the gate of Gu's mansion. Since Zhaoyang wanted to mention this matter, he naturally talked about it lightly. The relationship between her and Gu Ruyang was inevitably exaggerated. The two women are sisters, but Gu Ruyang's title of son-in-law will inevitably make people think too much, it's not important, this is the result Zhaoyang wants.

After entering the gate of the mansion, Zhaoyang went back directly to Pinglan Courtyard, and didn't say he wanted to see Qin Huan'an, but threw him back to the Tingtao Pavilion, and asked Huo Qishan to send someone to guard the gate, and he was not allowed to come out without his own order .

After returning to her room, Zhaoyang felt completely relaxed. Fengdi changed her clothes, and naturally found the injury on Zhaoyang's foot. She wanted Fengjian to go to the doctor, but Zhaoyang stopped her Well, she is going to deal with the injury on her leg in a low-key manner. Although it may leave a scar, if she is injured, it will definitely reach the ears of the emperor. I left the imperial court to deal with it, and I am afraid that in the end, nothing will happen.

But for her younger brother, the prince, Zhaoyang will naturally not let it go!

"Feng Jian." Zhaoyang said.

"The servant is here."

"Tell General Huo, let him send some confidantes to take care of my prince brother, and see what Li'an is up to recently."

"Yes."

Zhaoyang wants to give Gu Ruyang an answer, so she has her own plans, and on the other side of Wanshi Harbor, Gu Ruyang is also in a little trouble.

"Tell me, where did Boss Gong go? This is because he has taken the guts of a leopard, and he even touched the master!" Zeng Shi knocked on the table with his shoe: "I'm going to sea now, I don't catch him!" I won't be coming back!"

Du Yong looked at the soles of the shoes, he didn't like staying on this boat, of course he had his reasons.

"Hurry up, hurry up, why are you so anxious!" He Sansi pointed at Zeng Shi's nose and shouted: "Our people found out that he went out to sea, so he must have gone out to sea, and wherever he went, he also went from this sea. Yes, the sea is so big, where are you going to find it! Boss Gong is gone, but his old stall is still here, didn’t they all send people to his stall to fetch people?”

"You old man, the people he didn't take away are all his abandoned sons, what's the use of taking the abandoned son back!" Zeng Shi retorted.

"What's the use, what's the use of your old man telling you..."

The two quarreled with each other, Gu Ruyang sat on the chair and pressed his forehead helplessly, only waiting for the two of them to finish their quarrel before speaking, but Du Yong also waited for them to quarrel with Gu Ruyang. , just looking at the account book from the side, facing the account book of the previous few days.

At this time, only Erniang You kept looking out the door, as if she was waiting for something. Sure enough, she saw a fisherman running in a hurry after a while. put in.

"Master, my informant is here." You Erniang said to Gu Ruyang, but this made He Sansi and Zeng Shi shut up.

"Informant?" Gu Ruyang looked at the fisherman. His skin was dark and his hands were covered with thick calluses. You Erniang was in charge of the fishing industry, and she said she was an informant, but she was actually a fisherman under her command.

"This is the head of the Gu family. Tell the head of the family what you saw that day." You Erniang said.

After Gu Ruyang took over Wanshi Port, he immediately reduced the tax on the fishermen. Naturally, he won the respect of the fishermen. The fishermen also saw that Gu Ruyang was dressed in common clothes like him. He looked young and promising, but he also looked approachable. , my heart is even more respectful.

The fisherman walked up to Gu Ruyang and followed, knelt down on the ground with a plop, and said, "Liu San, a villager, has seen the head of the family."

"Kneeling, kneeling, get up!" Before Gu Ruyang could speak, You Erniang pulled Liu San up: "This is to discuss matters, not to burn incense."

"Yes yes yes..." Liu San bowed his waist.

"What did you see that day?" Gu Ruyang asked.

"The one who went back to the boss's house, the younger one went fishing that day, passed Wangba Island, and saw Boss Gong's fleet and two other large ships without owners."

"How do you know it's Mr. Gong's boat?" Du Yong asked.

"It's written on the flag." Liu San replied.

"I mean, how do you know Boss Gong is on top?" Du Yong continued to ask, and it cannot be ruled out that Boss Gong's subordinates did it.

"I saw it." Liu Sandao said: "I know a good guy on Boss Gong's boat, and we often go out for drinks together. I saw him from a distance, and Boss Gong is beside him, so naturally I saw it too."

"What are they doing?" He Sansi asked.

"Master, I don't know what they are doing, but I saw officers and soldiers on board, and I wondered why the pirate was with the officers and soldiers, so I didn't dare to go up." Liu San was honest.

"Officers and soldiers?" Zeng Shi became angry again when he heard it. It was always his job to deal with officers and soldiers. Now the officers and soldiers have come to his territory: "His grandma, why did the officers and soldiers come to our sea?"

"It's indeed here." Gu Ruyang said, "Two big ships have come."

"Yes, they are two big lucky boats." Liu San said.

"Follow? What's going on?" Gu Ruyang continued to ask, she didn't know about the boat until she went to the island that day, and Ruan Qiniang's subordinates only said that Boss Gong's boat was empty.

"Follow Boss Gong and his men and board the officers' and soldiers' boat." Liu San said again: "I saw that they were officers and soldiers, so naturally I didn't dare to go there, so I went back."

"Then that Shaogong you know is back?" Gu Ruyang said.

"It's gone." Liu San replied: "Didn't I hear that Boss Gong escaped? I just remembered that something was a little strange that day, so I hurriedly told Mrs. You."

"I have a heart." Du Yong said politely.

"It should." Liu San said.

"Er Niang, give him some silver taels, it's hard work." Gu Ruyang said.

Hearing the money, Liu San's eyes lit up, and he quickly knelt down again, thanking him again and again.Erniang You asked Liu Sanxian to step down again.Now the four people have some clues. It seems that Boss Gong has not only escaped, but also colluded with the people in the court.

"The head of the family, the people from the court entered the waters under our jurisdiction without saying hello. I'm afraid it's a bit too much?" Zeng Shi refused to let go.

"I know about this." Gu Ruyang said.Zhaoyang told her what happened and apologized to her, but she didn't say anything about it.

"Then the head of the family, we must let the court give us an explanation!" He Sansi also looked angry, and he even gave Du Yong a glare.

Gu Ruyang shook his hand and smiled: "Don't worry, everyone, someone promised to give me an explanation."

"Master, what is the meaning of this? Who? Who will give you an explanation?" Zeng Shi asked, he was waiting to drive the fleet to the north bank to fight a good battle. Wanshigang has long been disgusted with the arrogance of the north bank.

Zeng Shi was stupid, but Du Yong was not. As soon as Gu Ruyang opened his mouth, he knew who that person was, so he finally put down the account book, Du Yong bowed slightly to Gu Ruyang, and said, "The head of the family, I have to go back to the house tomorrow. trip."

Gu Ruyang stood up and stretched. She looked at the four subordinates who sat down with different expressions, and said to Du Yong, "Come back, I'll be back tomorrow morning."
