Although the young woman was charming and graceful, there was a frown between her brows. It was obvious that there was something troubling her.
"Rong 'er!" Song Qingshu couldn't help but call out to her. Huang Yaoshi immediately looked at him.
"Ah?" Huang Rong also saw him. Her body trembled and her eyes were filled with disbelief.
"If you have something to say, say it inside." Huang Yaoshi couldn't help but snort when he saw the two of them holding hands and looking at each other with tears in their eyes. He walked into the island with a dark expression.
Song Qingshu hurried to Huang Rong's side and said, "I haven't seen you for a few days, why have you lost weight?"
Huang Rong was a little flustered, "You … why are you here?"
Seeing her expression, Song QingShu smiled. "You don't have to worry about me forcing you. I'm here for your father."
"For my father?" Huang Rong was relieved when she heard that he wasn't here to force her to make a decision. She blinked her eyes in confusion.
The three of them sat down in the house. Song Qingshu couldn't help but look around, "Where are Miss Lu and Miss Cheng?" He heard that Huang Rong was pregnant and that they were taking care of her on Peach Blossom Island.
Huang Yaoshi was so angry that he laughed, "Isn't it enough to harm my daughter? Now you want to harm my disciple?"
Song Qingshu smiled awkwardly. He was just asking casually and didn't expect to provoke this gunpowder barrel.
Huang Rong smiled and whispered to him, "It seems that the Lu family had some business with them and they went back to visit their relatives. Moreover, I can take care of myself now, so I didn't bother them."
So that's how it is. Song Qingshu felt a little regretful that he missed them again when he passed by Shanyin City.
"You plan to deal with the Mongolian army on the sea?" Huang Yaoshi saw the two of them whispering to each other.
Song QingShu nodded. "That's right. Even though the Mongolians suffered great losses during the battle at Mount Liupan, the Mongolians have been too strong over the years, and they didn't manage to damage their foundation. If they conquer Dongying, they will definitely head south. By then, with the Dongying Navy's strength, their last weakness will be covered, and they will be invincible.
Huang Yaoshi frowned, "Even if they want to go south, there are still the Jin, Qing, and Xixia in between. Isn't it better to let both sides suffer?"
Song QingShu shook his head and said, "Everyone saw how the Mongols attacked Western Xia like a hot knife cutting through butter. Western Xia is not weak, and they did not suffer any losses even after fighting against the Song Empire for a hundred years. Yet, in just a few short months, they were almost wiped out. You can imagine how the Song Empire is going to defend itself once they attack the Song Empire."
Huang Rong, who was by the side, nodded as well. "That's right. Reaping the benefits of a third party is only built when the two enemies are evenly matched. Right now, Mongolia's strength far surpasses that of any country in the Central Plains. If we just sit back and do nothing, they will defeat us one by one. After they swallow up those countries, Mongolia will become stronger, and it will be even harder for us to catch up."
Seeing his daughter speak up for him, Huang Yaoshi angrily snorted. It was true that women tended to leave their husbands. Perhaps she had forgotten, but he remembered clearly. That year, she also helped Guo Jing, that idiot, to anger me.
At this moment, Song QingShu said, "The best way to deal with the invincible Mongolian cavalry is to drag them into a naval battle. I've been planning for many years and finally succeeded in luring the Mongolian army to Dongying. If we miss this opportunity, I'm afraid we won't get another chance."
Huang Yaoshi was surprised, "Didn't the Mongolians attack Dongying because they sent the Shuiyue Sect to kill Temujin? What does that have to do with you?"
With a bitter smile, Song Qingshu explained his disguising skills and showed them the basics. Now that things had come to this, he wasn't afraid that his secret would be revealed. Moreover, he knew that Huang Yaoshi was a patriot and would never betray him.
Huang Yaoshi was shocked and couldn't help but sigh, "So you were the one who did all this. Now that I think about it, I admire you."
Noticing his daughter's calm expression, he couldn't help but ask, "You already knew?"
Huang Rong shook her head, "Although he didn't tell me directly before, he reminded me a few times, and I can roughly guess what happened."
Song Qingshu couldn't help but sigh, "Rong 'er, you are really smart."
Huang Yaoshi chuckled, "Your disguising skills are really amazing. It's a pity that you didn't become a rapist."
Huang Rong couldn't help but glare at her father, "Daddy ~"
If the other party was a rapist, then what was she?
Huang Yaoshi sighed inwardly, knowing that his daughter was falling deeper and deeper. He didn't have the energy to care about anything else, "Although I'm an expert in Qimen Dun Jia, I'm not good at fighting. I'm afraid you've found the wrong person this time."
Song Qingshu shook his head, "I haven't found the wrong person. Leading troops to war is secondary, but the most important thing is the weather. If we want to completely destroy the Mongolian fleet, we must borrow the power of nature, namely tsunamis and storms. Looking at the whole world, who else but you who is so familiar with astronomy, geography, and the sea … "
After a lot of flattery, Huang Yaoshi's expression softened, "Fine, I promise you. But this is not for you, it's for the people of the world."
"Thank you, Island Master Huang," Song Qingshu couldn't help but be overjoyed, "In addition, I would like to invite Chief Huang to Liaodong with me …"
Before he could finish, Huang Yaoshi was furious. He took out his jade flute and chased after him, "You're still saying you're not here for Rong 'er?"
Song Qingshu dodged and hurriedly explained, "That's because Chief Huang is better at commanding troops, strategizing, and you're good at swimming. When the time comes, you'll definitely be of help …"
"As if I'd believe you!"
…
The two chased and fought for a while, finally ending with a few bumps on Song Qingshu's head. Is this guy doing this on purpose because he knows I won't dare to fight back?
Huang Yaoshi, on the other hand, felt a sense of comfort in his heart. He didn't know that it felt so good to beat a Great Grandmaster.
Huang Yaoshi had vented his anger and looked at Song Qingshu with less hostility. He then said, "Rong 'er, go and make arrangements for Xiang' er and Polu. We'll go to Liaodong together."
Song Qingshu's heart trembled and he couldn't help but look at Huang Rong, "Can I go and see them?"
Huang Rong bit her lips and an unexpected blush appeared on her face, "Okay."
Huang Rong arranged for Guo Fu and the Wu brothers to stay on the island to take care of the twins. After all, the island had all kinds of servants, so there was no need to worry about them not being able to take care of them.
Of course, considering Guo Fu's impetuous character, she also sent a letter to Cheng Ying to ask her meticulous Junior Sister to come and take care of the twins.
When they left the island, Huang Rong couldn't help but whisper to Song Qingshu, "I deliberately sent Fu 'er away. You know she used to like you, but when she found out about the rumors, she was very angry, so I didn't dare to let her see you."
Song Qingshu smiled awkwardly, "That's just right."
At first, Guo Jing wanted to betroth Guo Fu to him. Who knew that things would turn out this way?
After boarding the Xue family's fleet, even Huang Yaoshi was amazed. He had been at sea for a long time, so he had naturally heard of the Xue family's fleet. Now that he saw Xue Baoqin, a young girl, managing such a large fleet so well, he felt as if the new generation had surpassed the old one.
Xue Baoqin warmly received the father and daughter. Her words and actions were exactly like a lady from a noble family, and there was nothing wrong with her.
Huang Rong was very smart, so she immediately realized the relationship between the two from their expressions and actions. She couldn't help but secretly sigh. He really was a devil incarnate, flirting with so many beautiful girls wherever he went.
Next, the fleet went north. Along the way, Song Qingshu kept discussing with Huang Yaoshi, Xue Baoqin, and Huang Yaoshi, the various possibilities of fighting on the sea, and gradually gained some understanding of the upcoming war.
Next, they went to Yangzhou to pick up Huo Qingtong. Among her beauties, no one could match her ability to lead troops to war. However, she had lived in the northwest for a long time and had no experience in fighting on the sea, so she needed the help of Huang Rong, Huang Yaoshi, and Xue Baoqin.
Originally, Zhou Zhiruo wanted to go with them, but she was pregnant. Obviously, the hard work she had done in the northwest had played a role. Song Qingshu was pleasantly surprised and firmly refused to let her go with them. The first trimester of a pregnant woman was the most dangerous period, and the baby couldn't be affected at all. How could she be tired from the upcoming war?
Zhou Zhiruo had no choice but to stay in Yangzhou to help Ren Yingying and be ready to support her at any time.
Kasley also wanted to go with them, but Huo Qingtong refused. She didn't want her sister to take any risks. Kasley was also considerate. She knew that she couldn't play a role on the battlefield and needed someone to protect her, so she didn't insist.
Yuan Ziyi originally wanted to go with them, but thinking that Kasley was here alone and they didn't speak the language, she couldn't be at ease because of their deep sisterly relationship, so she decided to stay.
Then the fleet went up the Yellow Sea to the Golden Snake Camp and met up with Xia Qingqing and Ah-Jiu. The two women had already received a messenger pigeon and prepared the navy of the Golden Snake Camp. The navy of the Golden Snake Camp had always been outstanding, and there was a lot of room for them to play this time.
After parting with Ah-Jiu and Xia Qingqing for many years, Song Qingshu hugged them tightly and felt extremely guilty. On the contrary, it was the two women who kept comforting him that the important things were more important.
In addition, he sent Zeng Rou and Yelu Yanbei to Yan Jing City to inform Dongfang Muxue. It should be noted that the navy of the Qing Kingdom couldn't be underestimated. When the time came, they would definitely unite all forces.
Then, Song Qingshu took the women and the fleet to the Divine Dragon Island, leaving the main force there to wait for an opportunity. The Divine Dragon Island was on the east of the Liaodong Peninsula, not too far from the Korean Peninsula. If the main force went further, it would easily alarm the Mongolian scouts.
Fang Yi and Mu Jianping were very excited to see him. It should be noted that it was really lonely to stay on the Divine Dragon Island all these years. The number of times they met with Song Qingshu could be counted on one hand. If they couldn't go to the Golden Snake Camp sometimes to accompany Ah-Jiu and Qingqing, it would probably be very difficult for them to hold on.
Song Qingshu felt very guilty. He thought that since the important matter had been settled, he must treat them well and make up for what he owed them all these years.
However, the most surprising thing was that the two women actually trained the navy of the Divine Dragon Island in good order. He knew that the adorable Mu Jianping definitely didn't have this ability. The main credit probably belonged to Fang Yi. He had to admit that this woman was indeed very capable.
After settling down on the Divine Dragon Island for two days and arranging everything, Song Qingshu went to Goryeo alone. Originally, Ah-Jiu, Xia Qingqing, and the others advised him not to take risks. After all, the son of a rich family shouldn't sit in a corner. Now that he had such a large force under his command, it was too dangerous to investigate these things in person. It was better to directly let the scouts investigate the news.
However, Song Qingshu didn't agree because this matter was too important. The opportunity to deal with the Mongolians would definitely disappear in a flash. He didn't feel at ease leaving it to others. Moreover, the situation in Goryeo and the Sea of Japan was changing too fast. The scouts at the bottom level might not be able to respond in time. He also couldn't reveal too much information to them in case the secret was leaked. Therefore, after thinking about it, it was better to go personally.
Ah-Jiu and the others knew that what he said made sense, so they could only constantly warn him to be careful.
Then, Fang Yi arranged for him to go to the nearest port and boarded a Goryeo smuggling ship to Goryeo. With the current war situation in Goryeo, only these smuggling ships would often run, and this would also help to conceal their identities.
After sailing for two days at sea, the captain mentioned to him that the weather at sea this year was a little abnormal. From time to time, they would encounter some bad weather. Song Qingshu was secretly happy, thinking that the heavens were really helping him. It seemed that Mongolia's luck was at its end.
Who knew that at night, the ship would suddenly encounter a rare storm. Although the sailors on the ship tried their best to deal with it, human strength was too insignificant in front of the power of nature. In the end, the hull of the ship disintegrated in the raging waves.
Although Song Qingshu had unparalleled cultivation, in this vast sea, there was no place for him to use it. He could only try his best to grab onto a board and drift with the waves, rowing in the direction where there was the most likely land.
The storm lasted for an entire night. Even if Song Qingshu had a profound cultivation, he was still exhausted after persisting in the waves for such a long time. Finally, he saw that he was washed to the beach of an island before he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Before closing his eyes, he vaguely saw a beautiful white figure walking towards him on the beach. He couldn't help but feel a little absurd: it seems that I'm really too tired and have hallucinations. How could I possibly meet her here?
A deep sense of tiredness came over him, and he slowly closed his eyes.

Everyone can guess who this white figure is.
In addition, it's the beginning of the month, I should ask for monthly tickets for my new book "The Fairy of Land". Last month I was quite diligent in updating it, I should be able to get monthly tickets with a minimum consumption … right?
