Chapter 19 Prelude

After seeing off, Zhu Jinxuan felt that her face was already a little stiff.

As for what they said to him, Zhu Jinxuan had long forgotten about it. Even Zhu Jinxuan could not remember their identities and whose relatives they were.

Although the princess' identity was very effective, as soon as it was revealed, those officials, gentry families who were originally not as good as the White Twelve Jinyiwei's small flag were sent to send one or two guards to perfunctory things. Their attitudes instantly took a 180-degree turn, and they were almost as if Zhu Jinxuan would do whatever he said.

However, at the same time, the princess Zhu Jinxuan will pay a considerable "price" for this.

Fortunately, when she was in the palace, she had a close relationship with the queen's sister-in-law, so she followed the queen to participate in many harem banquets where she summoned destiny and noble daughters. Although she was tired, she had no discomfort.

Moreover, compared with the decree wives, princesses, princesses, and relatives from Ningbo Prefecture and nearby prefectures, the status of the officials, gentry and relatives from nearby prefectures was far behind. Therefore, when they were more afraid of Zhu Jinxuan, the princess with the title of title in the Ming Dynasty, they were more afraid and dared not make any mistakes.

At least, they have not dared to introduce the so-called young talents to Zhu Jinxuan indirectly and promote their relatives like the noble ladies of some grades in the capital.

They were more just to meet the emperor's real sister.

After all, there are very few of them who can follow their husbands who can become officials in Beijing and their sons get the chance to enter the palace. This time, they can "open their eyes" and can also boast about more capital when chatting with other women with the same status in the future.

Moreover, in front of them, there seems to be a more direct and fatal threat...

...

Bai Shier's defense plan finally came to fruition, but the price he paid was also quite high.

Princess Zhu Jinxuan's identity was completely exposed. Although she temporarily received enough guards, it would be quite harmful in the long run.

If Zhu Jinxuan could survive this crisis, she would probably be difficult to continue hiding her identity like now and wandering with Bai Shier, Hu Xiaolin and others.

In order not to let the civil officials in the court take the opportunity to attack and put pressure on the emperor, after resolving the crisis, Zhu Jinxuan must return to the capital immediately.

This is the only way to block the mouths of those censors who want to take the opportunity to cause trouble or even make trouble.

Zhu Jinxuan, who had just reconciled with Bai Shier, was naturally unwilling to do this, but the threat from the pirates was imminent. She could not be willful and use the lives of so many people to joke.

Naturally, deep down, she was full of resentment towards Zhang Fu, the culprit who had no choice but to do so.

When Bai Shier and Hu Xiaolin came to her to discuss using her identity to assemble the guards, she finally gave her conditions:

Catch Zhang Fu in front of her.

...

I didn't know that Bai Shier's "newly married wife" whom I didn't care about would be the dignified Princess Xianyou. Moreover, Zhang Fu, who was already gritting his teeth with hatred for him, was looking proudly in the direction where Baihua Mountain was.

With his identity as the manager of Zhang Bin's mansion and his friendship with Shi Tonghai for many years, and more importantly, with the greed in the hearts of the people, he finally successfully convinced Shi Tonghai and agreed to his plan.

Notify all nearby pirates that three days later, when the main island is transporting supplies to Baihua Mountain, intercept the supply ship, and then let the pirates disguised as shipmen and soldiers, dock at Baihua Mountain Wharf, wait for an opportunity to control the wharf, and then pick up the islands such as the major pirates, quickly plunder and flee away immediately.

The plan is not complicated, the only difficulty is how to get close to the official ship that supplies, so as to board the ship and intercept it.

The answer given by Zhang Fu was the ship that was captured by Cai Gan not long ago, as well as the ship workers and some monks on the ship.

Just like in the story novel, it was like changing the enemy's armor, capturing the enemy, and taking the opportunity to trick the enemy into opening the enemy's city gate.

After thinking for a long time, Shi Tonghai felt that Zhang Fu's plan was very likely to succeed.

First of all, the temples in Baihua Mountain have been calm since they were rebuilt several years ago. The officials and soldiers must have never expected that they would suddenly attack.

Secondly, unlike the tricking of opening the city gate in the storybook, it requires a very complicated operation. In the vast sea, people identify each other, and rely mostly on things that can be recognized by ships and sails, which are far away from each other.

Since there is already a boat from Baihua Mountain, it is undoubtedly very easy to get close to the official boat to transport supplies.

And unlike cheating on the city gate, it is considered successful if the other party really opens the city gate, or even snatches the city gate.

At sea, as long as the ship can be brought to a certain distance, even if it is discovered, the pirates are not afraid at all.

They have long been used to fighting like this.

...

For three days, the sea was still calm and the waves were not even visible. Hu Xiaolin gathered up and patrolled the monks of the guard guard who were patrolling day and night every day were full of complaints.

They felt that these Jinyiwei took the fake news that they had obtained from this and looked like they were facing a great enemy. Not only did they stop the ships to the main island, but they also let them wander around the island every day, which was really speechless.

Hu Xiaolin ignored the complaints of the monks in the guardhouse, and directly served those who were unwilling to obey orders, which made all the monks complain about Lian Tian.

If Hu Xiaolin hadn't hit his fist, it would have hurt, and they were not confident that they could beat him, and they were afraid that the fourth-rank commander Tongzhi's official title would have been rebellious long ago.

Even so, the monks complained a lot to the abbots in their respective temples, hoping that the abbots could help them talk to the princess Xianyou and not let the big guards under her torture them like this.

Faced with the indirect persuasion of the abbots, Zhu Jinxuan blocked their mouths in just two sentences.

"The ship sent out three days ago has not returned yet!"

"No ship has arrived in the past three days."

The abbots realized this with a little horror. For the first time, the chills came out in their hearts. They did not dare to have any luck. They suppressed the complaints of the monks with great severity. At the same time, they ordered these monks to strictly follow Hu Xiaolin's orders and not be careless.

However, when the ship that had left before appeared on the sea at the same time as the official ship transporting supplies, they couldn't help but feel dissatisfied with the princess Hu Xiaolin, Bai Shier, and even Zhu Jinxuan again.
