Chapter 21: Rich and Free (2)
Although her expression was still full of panic, fear, fear, and temptation, her eyes had the desperate vigor of a gambler.

Shui Qianxun laughed slowly: "You follow me, aren't you afraid of being caught and killed by that iceberg beauty in black?"

"My godmother said that when she picked me up, I was a baby just one month old, lying in a basket, floating along the Golden Thread River to her boat, and she adopted me. Three years ago, my godmother died , I’m the only one left.” Chuan Niang smiled, but the smile was a bit sad.

Shui Qianxun didn't speak, just looked at the boat lady quietly.A twelve or thirteen-year-old girl, alone, wanted to survive on the Golden Thread River mixed with dragons and snakes. One can imagine the hardships involved.

"I know you are not an ordinary person. If you follow you, you may die. I am afraid of death, but I am even more afraid. I have been living a life that is worse than a dog."

"What's your name?"

"The godmother's surname is Du, and I take her surname as Du Lan'er."

"Du Lan'er, let me ask you, which restaurant by the Jinxian River has the best food? Which shop has the best clothes? Where can you find beautiful men?"

Du Lan'er was taken aback, and then quickly replied: "The Linfeng Pavilion by the Jinxian River costs at least 20 taels of silver for a table, which must be excellent. The dresses in Jiangji's shop are the most beautiful. Mr. Yushi's wives have all come to buy them. Handsome men? The young masters in the Yuzhu Building, I heard that they are handsome, and many women miss them."

"Jade Bamboo Tower?"

"It's the small hall."

Shui Qianxun put his left hand on Du Lan'er's shoulder, and said with a smile on his face, "Start the boat! Now go to Jiangji's shop to buy clothes, and then go to Linfeng Pavilion to have a big meal. After eating and drinking enough, we can see the beautiful men!"

Du Lan'er's eyes lit up, knowing that Shui Qianxun had agreed to her request, so she joyfully got out of the cabin and rowed towards Jiang Ji.

Shui Qianxun sat cross-legged on the hatch, touching the small package hanging around his waist, his eyes shining.

It's nice to have money and freedom.

A soft pillow made of coarse cloth was thrown in the corner of the cabin. Behind the soft pillow was a hole the size of a fist. The snow ball rested on its chin with its left paw, while its right paw opened the edge of the soft pillow. His eyes stared at the girl's back, and he bared his teeth and grinned.

In the Linfeng Pavilion by the river bank, in the Tianzi No. [-] room on the top floor, Huangfu Yi stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, and he had a panoramic view of the scenery on the Jinxian River.

His gaze was always locked on one of the boats.

Yan Ziqiu stood on one side with his hands down, and said in a low voice: "The news came from the ghost detective. The woman's surname is Shui and her name is Qianxun. The details of this woman have not been found out."

Huangfu Yi turned his gaze from the small old boat with red lanterns to an exquisite painting boat: "The one who chartered the painting boat is Huangfu Xun's personal guard Mo Shuang?"

"Yes, he disguised himself as a scholar. After the river was opened, he chartered the boat, secretly paid the boatman a lot of money, and told him to follow the boat."

"Mo Chu and Mo Shuang never leave Huangfu's side..." Huangfu's eyes darkened.

"Since the prince sent Mo Shuang, it can be seen that in the prince's heart, Shui Qianxun is very important. She also told Princess Changle that the prince allowed her to be the princess."

"If it's what she said, why would she leave the Tianhu Courtyard by kidnapping the princess? There must be something hidden in it." When Huangfuyi heard the word "Prince Princess", a strange feeling suddenly appeared in his heart.

But then he suppressed this inexplicable feeling.

"Your Highness, that boat must be weird, Shui Qianxun is probably still hiding in that boat."

In Huangfuyi's mind, the inexplicable flying wooden stool appeared again. That sly girl must have some weird tricks, so she was able to hide it from his eyes again and again.

"Keep an eye on that ship." Huangfu said coldly.
