At first, Sheng Weiqiao only interpreted those fools that he mentioned as some people that offended him on the ship, and she didn't realize what happened until being drawn to the downstairs and seeing the crew equip themselves with leather armor and weapons like harpoons and arrows. She blurted out, "Did we bump into the pirates?"
Li Shengxu, who was asking why everyone got armed, suddenly paled at her words, "What?! The pirates?! But people say that the pirates have been eliminated since General Zhou carried out a purge on the sea!"
His entourage was also scared and urged, "What are we waiting for? We shall steer the ship back and manage to flee before they catch up!"
"My Lord, don't get flustered. They are merely tactless brats!" The man who once taught Li Shengxu to swim gave him a sprightly smile as he weighed the bow in his hand, "We'll take much pleasure from the coming fight, for the peaceful life on the sea has rusted our bodies!
They heard the arrows going through the air, the bodies being chopped by the weapons, and the blood gushing upon the yank at the weapons. People yelled, dashed, entreated their attackers to spare them, and cursed, with the hooks flying coming and going in the air. The ones staying in the cabin couldn't see what was exactly going on outside with the windows and doors being closed, but that sound accompanied by the wind and the waves rendered them even more daunted.The clamor was quelled after some time and Rong Shuihe's peaceful nonchalant voice was heard, "Clean it up!"The people in the cabin all heaved a sigh of relief.The door was opened after a moment, and Rong Shuihe was the first to show up. The squad still had a murderous aura around them. The stains on their dark rumpled clothing weren't quite visible, but the smell of blood that was brought in by the wind was also indicative of their hairy experience just now."It
Rong Shuihe laughed, "Well, it must be my father, Gaomi King."Hearing that, Sheng Weiqiao was greatly astonished. She said, "Gaomi King? How is that possible?"Considering Rong Shuihe's previous behavior, Sheng Weiqiao asked him suspiciously, "Did you do anything bad that you found it hard to tell me? Therefore, you try to gain my sympathy by bringing shame on the Gaomi King Family so that you can muddle through, right?"Rong Shuihe, "..."He spat a mouthful of blood in his heart and then said bitterly, "I'm not fooling you! When I asked to passingly offer amnesty and enlistment to rebels on the Daimao Island, Gaomi King had proposed letting Young Lord take my place to do this. I know his intention. He must think that the people of the Gongsun Family are strong and enjoy good courage and insight. So, he wanted them to pay allegiance to Young Lord. However, finally, he gave up that idea since Princess Gaomi and I disagreed."
Hearing Rong Shuihe's words, Sheng Weiqiao stood up immediately and grabbed his sleeve, dragging him to the secret hole. Then, she said in a deep voice, pointing at the hole on the ground, "You'd better obediently go back to your own room! If you dare to have some bad intentions, don’t you believe I'll kick you down?"Hearing that, Rong Shuihe straightened his face and said, "Sweetie, it's so unkind of you! You can peep at me condescendingly, but I am not allowed to kiss and hug you? It is similar to the old saying that one man may steal a horse while another may not look over a hedge! It's alright for me to do this sort of thing. After all, it's normal for a pirate like me to have no sense of shame. But for you, a decent girl from a noble family and a princess conferred by the Emperor, don't you feel ashamed for doing this?"Sheng Weiqiao looked sullen and said, "I didn't peep at you! If there had been nothing important, I could not have been bother
All was quiet and still here. Unconsciously, Sheng Weiqiao fell asleep in the arms of Rong Shuihe.When she woke up in the morning, she found that she was in her own bed. Besides, the windows that she opened last night were now closed.Then, she sat up lazily and called a maid to serve her.A moment later, she just sat in front of the dresser and thoughtfully stared at the basin that Juli had brought here, "Water in the basin moves more quickly from side to side than before, doesn't it?"In the past two days, the sun had been high in the sky, and the conditions at sea had been favorable for traveling, making it easier for the big ship to run smoothly across the sea.To be precise, it just made a relatively smooth movement. After all, traveling across the sea was not like walking upon the flat ground.But... Today, water in the basin just shook more violently than before.Juli replied hu
Well, Rong Shuihe was determined to marry Sheng Weiqiao. Indeed, he had got himself all psyched up for badgering Sheng Lanci to let him agree to their marriage, and Sheng Weiqiao had promised to help persuade Sheng Lanci. But now, he was still in an unsettled state of mind. Hearing that, he just said absentmindedly, "At least he did not shut the door on us... Let us get into Sheng’s mansion first, shall we?"In contrast, Rong Shuihe's so-called love rival Li Shengxu just looked relaxed. He had lived in Chang'an since birth and never traveled such a long distance to the south. His only journey was to the north, where the imperial doctor of the last dynasty lived.For him, the customs, the flowers and the trees of Nanfeng County were irresistibly attractive.Disregarding the rain falling outside, he lifted a curtain of the carriage and then looked at these things with lively interest. Then, the carriage just stopped in front of Sheng’s man
Like Madam Feng, Sheng Weiqiao's aunt smiled when she saw her niece coming in. After hearing the words, she was a little angry, and she said, "What's the matter? I cannot be here now?""I thought that I could only see you until I visit the Xuanyu Mansion!" Sheng Weiqiao came to hold her and said, "I didn't expect that I could see you here right now!""That's nice to hear!" Sheng Weiqiao's aunt looked at her sister proudly as if she had told her that Sheng Weiqiao showed her preference for her aunt to her mother as she greeted the former right after she came in. Madam Feng rolled her eyes to her sister, which indicated that it was no big deal if her daughter showed intimacy to her aunt since she was Sheng Weiqiao's mother.Sheng Weiqiao ignored the sisters' facial expressions. Instead, she thought her aunt became jealous after she heard that Rong Shuihe had come over there, like what had happened to Sheng Lanci. In the past, her aunt was
When Madam Xiao described Li Shengxu to Madam Feng and her sister, Sheng Weiqiao had already returned to Zhuying Mini Villa.Looking at her old room, she said, "It's so good to come back home again!" Her gloomy mood from her aunt's trick vanished.The Sheng Mansion she stayed in Chang'an was so narrow. Although Ningwei Marquis Family was much more spacious, it was still not as good as Sheng's mansion in Nanfeng County. Moreover, she could not enjoy the freedom she had when she was at home.Later on, her grandfather bought a mansion in Chang'an after arriving in the city, where the land was pretty expensive. Although the mansion was larger than the one she had lived before, it could not be compared with Sheng’s mansion.Sheng Weiqiao had stayed in the "small house" in Chang'an for a long time, and then she boarded the ship with very limited space. Now she finally saw her room which had been empty for over half a year. She fou
Madam Feng ordered immediately, "Lead him in quickly! How can you keep him waiting outside the door in such hot weather?"Then, she checked her appearance and said to Sheng Weiqiao in a low voice, "He probably came here for Sheng Weirao."At that time, Senior Master Sheng persisted in letting the second branch move out of Sheng Family while Madam Bai died. The children of the second branch had to reduce social communication when they were in mourning for Madam Bai. So they had rarely visited Sheng’s mansion since then.Especially, Sheng Weirao and Sheng Weixing, Madam Bai's biological children, had rarely come to pay a visit after finishing the mourning. It was not because that they hated the eldest branch, the third branch, or Senior Master Sheng. The only reason was that Sheng Weirao violently quarreled with Old Madam Ming because of her mother's death.Luckily, Old Madam Ming was magnanimous. She didn't be angry about her
Shu Zhaoyi lost her soul and returned to the Xuanjing Emperor placed outside the bedchamber, and was about to go in to see how the Xuanjing Emperor slept ... After she came back with the Xuanjing Emperor, because she was anxious to go to interrogate Meng Guiyu alone, she excused herself to drink wine to drown her sorrows, and left the Xuanjing Emperor after she got him drunk.This moment back can not help but go in to see, who knows just to the door to see the two chamberlains eyes and nose guarding.Seeing Zhaoyi come over, their faces all changed, and they bowed tremblingly, saying, "Long live the Empress!""There are people inside?" Shu Zhaoyi asked with a raised eyebrow when she saw that despite their respectful attitude, they never had the intention to give way.The two chamberlains looked at each other, with trepidation in their eyes, knowing that the Shu sisters were in great favor and neither were good-tempered.Especially at this moment, the ne
Shu Zhaoyi's expression was harsh, but Meng Guiyu's face was calm, and he said in a deep voice, "Back to Lady Zhaoyi, I really didn't know about Your Highness's suffering at all!"He glanced at Shu Guifei's remains on the door panel not far away, "As for why His Majesty and Lady Zhaoyi found that Lady Guifei was missing, they issued an imperial edict for the forbidden army to search everywhere, and in the end, it was me who sent Lady Guifei to His Majesty as well as to Lady Zhaoyi.... Ma'am, I reported up before that Lady Guifei wasn't personally found by me, but was reported up after his men found it. personally found, but rather after my men found it and reported it up, I went to see it!""After all, I have been favored by the two empresses and have joined the forbidden army as the Grand Commander of the forbidden army. When the forbidden army discovers a clue, it is natural to report it to me first, and then I will convey it to His Majesty and you, Your Highness!"
"Your Highness!" Meng Gui Yu's expression was somber, his eyes were also red, stepped forward and cupped his fists and said, "After I learned that Your Highness and her attendants had disappeared, I couldn't believe that Your Highness had been in an accident! However, the Queen Consort lived in the Qiongxue Palace and the left side of the inch by inch search down, the Committee did not see any silhouettes, can only be dispersed towards the distance. At this time to listen to the water division side of the report, said the spring wave lake floated up ... floated up a number of people, all for the palace attire, the leader of the even more expensive clothes extraordinary, I ... ministers eleven million hope that it is a mistake!""But the minister to the lake, personally saw this body pomegranate red dress shirt ... I remember, two days ago also see your concubine through ...""This must be which bitchy servant girl, stole this palace sister's robe!!!" Shu Zhao Yi covered
The sky was overcast as if it were night before the rain poured down.In the back room of the assassin's residence, the doors and windows were closed, and it was too dim to see the outlines of things.Yi Liu dressed in Xuan Shirt strong clothing, full head of green silk also with the same color of the handkerchief tightly wrapped up, foot soft sole light boots, quietly stepped over the scarlet ground tangled branches of lotus pattern unicorn play beads rug.The short sword in his hand was coated in black paint, dark and heavy that would not emit any reflections, best suited for the immediate environment.She narrowed her eyes slightly so as not to let the luster between the flow of her bright eyes be detected by her opponent.The thunder outside the house had been raging for a long time, and her confrontation with her opponent had lasted even longer.She's in no hurry.In addition to the fact that this was the Assassin's Palace, the home bas
Rong Sleeping Crane was busy smiling and greeted her, "Auntie! I disturbed you last night, are you resting well now?"Xuan Yu Feng first looked him up and down, saw his gray head and face, and his clothes were dirty, then said in a pleasant manner, "I am an idle person anyway, it is nothing to make a mess once in a while, but it is you ... how did you get this? How to make such a mess? I just saw with you a piece of over the guards, are good, thought you also safe and sound it!"Let's just say that he, "Auntie knows that this child of yours is both literate and skilled in martial arts. But the so-called not in his position does not seek his own politics, you now is not to the district Gongsun clan to sell their lives of the Wuyi camp leader, but the king of the big Mu County, is the husband of Qiao Er, lemonade father of the king! If it is because of the first to fight, there are any shortcomings, you call Qiao'er mother and son in the future how to do?""What's mo
"..." Rong Sleeping Crane froze and said, "Good girl, although Meng Boqin is gone, the Northern Border may not be peaceful ah! And you also know that I secretly came from the Western Border this time, so after settling your mother and son, I will talk to uncle for a few more days, and also have to hurry to return to the Western Border."Sheng Weiqiao said, "You have urgent matters, you go to the western border first! I'll go over slowly with lemonade, at most it's just a few more days of traveling."She frowned slightly, ''Before I left from the Western Frontier in such a hurry, the things I lost down were just that, Geun Li, Ju Li those people, and the twelve niang and whatnot ... I'm telling you, if it wasn't for the fact that you were in the way of Meng Boqin before, and you said that it was safest to take the sea route to leave, I would have wanted to go to the Western Frontier to witness it no matter what. I'd like to go to the western border to see them before I fe
"Think of the good in things!" The plan to use Zhao Shi as a front failed, Rong Yuhe could only go alone to face his wife's doubts, he was on his way to comfort himself, "I can't say that my daughter is worried and scared alone in the camp, and she is satisfied to see that I am well past it. Why is it that things are happening differently from what she told me before, and she's not in the mood to get to the bottom of it, so I'll be able to get by with a few perfunctory sentences?"With that thought he looked down at his neat as new robes, pondered for a moment, and decisively halted his mount!The left and right guards were instantly aghast, taking off the bow hanging on the saddle and nocking arrows from the arrow pot at their waist while asking in a low voice, "County King?""... "Rong Sleeping Crane looked at them as if they were enemies, the corner of his mouth twitched, and said, "It's nothing. Well, you guys stay here, lone go to the side forest for a bit!"
The green-clothed boy heard, a face of "difficult to say" expression, once again look at Zhao Shi, mouth vaguely said, "I do not know how to say ... anyway... several stewards feel very difficult to make a judgment. ...Several stewards feel that it's very tricky and can't make a judgment, so I can only ask the County King to personally decide!"Seeing this situation, Zhao Shi raised an eyebrow and said to Rong Sleeping Crane, "I'm about to go out to see how things are going underneath, you guys talk over here!"Just take the old maid and go.The room is left with Rong Sleeping Crane and the boy, that boy immediately swept away the calm in front of Zhao Shi's master and servant, said in a tone of excitement mixed with inexplicable excitement, "County King! To tell you the truth, you may not believe it: brother Ah Xi, he ... actually slept with the Empress!!!"Yung Sleeping Crane, who has taken a hundred and twenty-thousand percent care and is ready to receive
Zhao Shi sniffed, froze for a good while, before asking with doubts, "You ... you send all the horses of your Western Frontier elite cavalry over? Then what about the direct line that you single-handedly trained?"Not waiting for Rong Sleeping Crane to answer, he shook his head again, "Not right! You kid has always been treacherous, not taking advantage of others would be good, how could you do something so self-sacrificing?!"Mind electric turn, suddenly eyes bright, breathing are a little short of breath, eagerly asked, "I remember you promised Deng Chen Liyu to help him raise his son and grandson ...?""I'm not as old as his grandson, what do you mean by helping him raise his son and grandson?" Rong Sleeping Crane cried and laughed, "It's just a promise to shelter a few of his heirs."Zhao suitable toward him leaned his body, attentive to ask, "The previous dynasty has the emperor Na Ru Ru princess as a consort, when Ru Ru accompanied by 10,000 horses, tha
