Chapter 155 Chapter 155: Blood on the Sea

At dawn the next day, Boss Park ordered the boat to sail, but Zheng Guirong looked flustered, came out of the cabin, and shouted across the boat: "For some reason, the sailors on my boat are all pale and unable to get up." Boss Park frowned and said, "Could it be that he has contracted a disease?"Going to the neighboring ship to inspect, it was found that seven of the ten sailors were dizzy and vomiting, lying on the board and dying.Boss Pu's deputy Bai Laosan said: Everyone on the boat sleeps together, and it is common for them to get sick together, and they will recover in a day or two.Pu Laodao: In this case, we will suspend the flight for a day today, let everyone rest, and wait for these people to recover from their illnesses before setting off.

Unexpectedly, in the afternoon, another seven or eight Korean warriors fell ill.That night, except for the people on Zhao Guan's boat who were safe and sound, many people on the other four boats vomited and diarrhoea, and two of them were dying.The princess was extremely worried, and summoned Zheng Guirong, Boss Park and Zhao Guan to the cabin to discuss countermeasures. Zheng Guirong didn't seem to be worried, and said: The warriors are not used to working and resting on the ship, and the weather is cold now, no wonder they are so seriously ill. Please don't worry too much, princess.Boss Pu shook his head and said: But my subordinates also fell ill. My sailors have been living at sea all year round. How could they fall ill so easily?Your Royal Highness, there seems to be something wrong with this matter.

Zheng Guirong stared at him and said: Boss Park, don't be suspicious and alarmist.After a few days, everyone will recover by themselves.Boss Park also stared back and said: In a few more days, the Dongying pirate ship will go far, how can we catch up? Zheng Guirong curled his lips and said: "It's not easy, but let the sailors who have never been sick take a small boat to catch up first, look at their whereabouts, and then come back to report, and they will never be lost."Your Highness, everyone is so weak, you should stop and rest, and it is better to start the boat after recovering your strength.The two argued again.

The princess hesitated, and turned to Zhao Guandao: "Jiang Tanzhu, what's your opinion?" Zhao Guan never opened his mouth, and when the princess asked, he said: I have no opinion, this matter is up to Boss Pu and Master Zheng.The princess nodded, then decided to take a compromise approach, and said, "Okay, Mr. Park, please send someone to catch up with the boat first, and the rest of the ships and sailors will stay for another day tomorrow."Then let the three exit. The next day, everyone stopped the boat to rest again. Boss Pu asked Bai Laosan to lead two sailors and two Korean warriors to follow them in a small boat.In the evening, the small boat sent out to follow up never came back.Boss Pu was worried, and personally drove another small boat to catch up to see it. He came back after two hours, his face was as pale as paper, and he said: "Things are not good."All the people sent out this morning were killed!

The princess was shocked and hurriedly asked for details.Pu Laodao: It seems that they were discovered by Dongying thieves, and all five of them were hacked to death in the boat.The princess, Zheng Guirong and others hesitated, and made all the Korean warriors and sailors take turns to guard that night. Boss Park was furious and resentful, and blamed Jung Kyu-ryong for having this idea, which caused his men to be killed.Zheng Guirong didn't budge, saying that his warriors also suffered together, and it must be Bai Laosan who got too close to the enemy ship and let the enemy find the trace.The two quarreled over it, and the princess, distraught, ordered Jung Kyu-yong to go back to another boat to rest and talk the next day.

That night, Ding Xiang asked Zhao Guandao: Young Master, what do you think is going on here?Zhao Guandao: There are people on this boat who don't want to save the little prince.Ding Xiang asked: How did you know?Zhao Guandao: The sailors and warriors suddenly fell ill together two days ago, only Zheng Guirong and the people on our ship are healthy, there must be something wrong with it, I went to see some sick sailors this morning, obviously they were poisoned.This poison was not made by me, nor by you.Ding Xiang turned her head and said: I really don't see who is the most suspicious.Master, do you see who did it?

Zhao Guan shook his head and said: I thought Bai Laosan was the most suspicious at first, he is not from North Korea, he is probably unwilling to take risks in order to save the little prince, it is very likely that he deliberately hindered him.But he died at sea today, so naturally it wasn't him. Ding Xiang said: Boss Park seems to be an honest man, Zheng Guirong is loyal, and all the Korean warriors have no reason to do so.Zhao Guan pondered and said: "Let's be careful, maybe we can see some clues tomorrow." Unexpectedly, there was an even more astonishing change the next day. Before dawn in the morning, five Korean warriors and eight sailors were found hacked to death in the cabin with knives.Zheng Guirong immediately came to report to the princess. After hearing this, the princess turned pale and frowned.

After Boss Pu heard the news, he was also very surprised, and hurried to the princess cabin to ask for an interview.When Zheng Guirong saw him coming, he looked solemn and said coldly: I want to ask His Highness for instructions alone.You go to another boat and wait for me.Seeing that his manner and words were extremely rude, Boss Pu burst into anger, but seeing the princess nodded slightly, he could only force himself to back away and boarded the neighboring boat. Zhao Guan was woken up by the loud voices, and when he came to the deck, he met Zheng Guirong who drove Boss Park away and was talking with the princess.He winked at Ding Xiang, Ding Xiang understood, and went to the cabin to find the princess's maid.In the past few days, she had been chatting and laughing with the princess's maid, and they got along very well, so she begged her to interpret for her.Seeing that the matter was important, the maid did not dare to translate it without authorization.Ding Xiang talked good and bad, and the maid quietly told Zhao Guan and Ding Xiang about the secret conversation between Zheng Guirong and the princess.

It turned out that Zheng Guirong believed that all this was done by Mr. Park. Mr. Park ordered the sailors who cooked the food to poison the dishes, which made so many people fall ill at the same time. He sent Bai Laosan out and secretly ordered Bai Laosan to kill all the Koreans The samurai, when he went out to respond, he killed Bai Laosan to silence him; the killing of the Korean warrior and sailor last night was naturally also based on his orders. Besides the Korean warrior, he also killed a few sailors, just to cover people's eyes.As for why he did this, it was to exclude Zheng Guirong and monopolize the credit for protecting the princess and rescuing the little prince.Zheng Guirong advocated killing Boss Park immediately, but the princess said that everyone was on his boat at this time. If he was arrested, the other sailors would definitely refuse to accept it. If there was a mess, everyone's life would be in danger.

After Zhao Guan heard this, he frowned and said nothing, and looked towards the cabin, only to see that the princess and Zheng Guirong were still talking in secret.The sky will be bright, the fog will rise, and the sea will be vast.Not long after, Zheng Guirong came out of the cabin without saying anything, and returned to his own boat with a very gloomy expression. Zhao Guan stood alone at the bow of the boat, meditating in the cold morning mist.Hearing the sound of footsteps on the deck, a person walked quickly behind him and called out in a low voice: Lord Jiangtan! Zhao Guanting heard that it was the voice of the princess, slightly surprised, turned around, and saw the princess standing behind her, her whole body was surrounded by mist, illusory, as if unfathomable.Zhao Guan said in a low voice: It's windy and cold outside, Your Highness, don't stay too long.The princess shook her head slightly, and said: "Jiang Tanzhu, I have something urgent and I need your help."

Zhao Guan nodded and said: Please speak, Your Highness. The princess trembled slightly, and said: I want you to take down Zheng Guirong!
