Director Yu glanced at the weather outside and said with a worried expression on his face: “It’s inappropriate to travel in this weather. Even if it is Young Master Song’s ship, there is a chance that something will happen to him. Your highness absolutely cannot do it.”
After Chu Yan heard this, he became even more anxious, and said angrily: “What are you talking about? Prepare the ship quickly, this prince is going to leave the port now.”
Prefect Niu was also very frightened. How could this be good? If an accident happened to Prince Jin after boarding the ship here, there is no need to mention his little life, his entire Niu Clan would be buried with him.
But if he won’t follow him, he would probably die now.
After weighing the pros and cons, he finally nodded and said to Director Yu: “Hurry up and prepare. You are familiar with this area, bring people who know how to swim to follow Prince Jin, and be sure to protect his highness, Prince Jin.”
Director Yu was helpless. He could not refuse, who let them be his boss and the other one be Prince Jin.
At this time, the wind and rain seemed to be even bigger, Director Yu called the largest ship in the harbor. It was a warship used to fight pirates before.
Although the ship was heading against the wind, the design of this warship was very clever.
It was raining heavily, and the surround it was pitch-black. They couldn’t see anything. The person in charge of the boat was driving forward based on experience.
Chu Yan was worried. He can’t rest in peace in the lower cabin, so he went to the deck and stood there soaking in the rain.
No matter how Zhou Awu persuaded Chu Yan, he refused. Zhou Awu wanted to knock him unconscious into the cabin.
Director Yu was afraid that Prince Jin would get sick from the rain, so he gave him a set of bamboo hats and cloaks to protect him from the rain, and shouted: “His Royal Highness, our ship is swift, and it will catch up with Young Master Song’s merchant ship before dawn. Your Highness, don’t have to worry too much.”
Chu Yan knew that the ship was very fast, and he was not worried at all about whether he would be able to catch up. He knew that he would catch up, but he was very flustered now. Looking at the storm, he was afraid that Song Lang’s merchant ship would not be able to withstand it. He didn’t dare to think more.
This river was deep and wide. Even if there were many people on board who understand water, at that time of chaos, which will save a little girl who has nothing to do with them?
His hand tightly grasped the clothes on the chest, and he felt suffocating in his heart.
Blame him, blame him for not being able to let go of those hatreds and resentments at the beginning. If he chooses to forget the past and stay in Huangtuo Village with her, how can there be so many things?
If something happened to Bai Zhi, no, it won’t, nothing will happen.
His heart ached suddenly as if someone was stabbing him with a sharp knife.
“His Royal Highness, what’s the matter with you?” Zhou Awu was always standing behind Chu Yan. Seeing that something was wrong with him, he hurriedly stepped forward to ask.
Chu Yan frowned. No one could tell if the water droplets on his face were either sweat or raindrops.
“It’s nothing, I’m fine.”
Zhou Awu was dying: “You still say you’re okay?” He grabbed Chu Yan’s arm and pulled him into the cabin: “Your Highness, if you don’t take good care of your body and you got sick, what do you think will happen? Who will look for Zhi’er?”
Zhou Awu found clean clothes and helped Chu Yan to change them, but his face was still pale and indifferent.
He grabbed Zhou Awu’s arm: “I feel it, I seem to feel it.”
Zhou Awu was puzzled: “What? What do you feel?”
“Something happened, something must have happened, something happened to Zhi’er. My heart hurts so much, it hurts so much—” He clutched his chest, unable to breathe in pain.
At this time, Director Yu rushed into the cabin in a hurry and said to Chu Yan: “His Royal Highness, there is a merchant ship in front of us. It seems to be Young Master Song’s ship.” Director Yu said with an ugly face.
