Hearing the words of the guard, Xiao Mochen's face changed a few times, and then he subconsciously glanced back at Su Wan, who was crying alone with a thin blanket on the chair next to the boat, and said, "What is the situation after the child is rescued?" ”

The first guard was a little strange, but he still said truthfully: "The situation is very bad, his breath is already weak and there is no movement, but the king of Chenguo is trying his best to save him." ”

Xiao Mochen sighed, and was very entangled in her heart whether to tell Su Wan the news, with her character, if she knew that Su Xuan was now on the emperor's cruise ship, she would definitely immediately beg her to drive the boat there.

But after all, there is a king of a certain country present, and this king is still inextricably linked with her, and it is difficult to guarantee that the emperor will not see anything wrong from it, and he is afraid that it will bring her more disasters when the time comes.

The leading guard noticed Xiao Mochen's psychological changes, so he asked with some hesitation, "What's wrong with King Chen?" Do you know something about the boy who fell overboard?

Xiao Mochen was stunned for a moment, and then said without any change in his face: "That boy should be Su Xuan, the youngest son of the Su family in Shangshu Mansion, and also the younger brother of my princess, please go and tell your father about this first, and I will take the princess to the cruise ship later." ”

Now that Su Xuan is on the emperor's cruise ship, it won't be long before someone finds out his identity. If I don't know it now, I am afraid it will be even more difficult to explain when it is found out.

"Yes!" The head guard was a little surprised, he didn't expect that the first person he met on the boat would know the identity of the boy, and then he disembarked with a complicated face and sailed back to the emperor's pleasure boat.

The Emperor was still standing on the deck, watching the scenery in the evening breeze, while squinting his eyes and waiting for the guards to come back with news. After hearing the proclamation of the head guard, the old emperor's eyes were a little complicated, the hand that dialed the Buddha beads trembled, the red rope broke, and the large and small Buddha beads immediately rolled down on the deck, making a crisp impact sound.

"Su Wan ......"

The old emperor slowly read out the culprit that made his heart fluctuate, and only then did he smile coldly, wave his hand and say to the entourage prime minister beside him who was full of fear: "Come with me and see how the little young master of the Su family is doing now." ”

"Yes." The entourage prime minister couldn't figure out what the old emperor was thinking at the moment, so he nodded and followed, and he walked towards the houseboat.

"Wan'er." After thinking for a while, Xiao Mochen still walked to Su Wan's side, reached out and gently put his hand on her shoulder, and called her softly.

This shout finally dragged Su Wan's wandering spirit back. She stared at Xiao Mochen blankly for a while, then suddenly became emotional, grabbed his sleeve and said, "Is there news from Xuan'er?" Where is he! ”

Xiao Mochen's heart ached, he stretched out his hand, and while gently stroking Su Wan's back, he said in a deep voice: "Xuan'er was saved by his father's fleet, and now he is being healed by Ji Qiubai. ”

Su Wan's beautiful big eyes widened suddenly, and her messy hair flew in the cold wind, with a sense of desolation and despair.

"Please, no matter what, take me to Xuan'er quickly!" Although Su Wan's reaction was expected, seeing her so mentally unstable, Xiao Mochen still sighed, looked at Su Wan seriously and said, "I will naturally take you there, but I want you to guarantee that you must pretend not to know Ji Qiubai throughout the whole process." ”

Su Wan was slightly stunned, then nodded frantically like a chicken pecking rice and said, "I promise you whatever you say, just ask me to let me see my Xuan'er quickly." ”

Xiao Mochen nodded, carefully helped the fragile Su Wan up, looked at her seriously again and said, "You have to remember that the current Ji Qiubai can only be the noble status of the king of Chenguo, and you are no longer a master and apprentice, you have no reason to be able to get acquainted with him at an opportunity other than tonight, do you understand?" ”

Su Wan's mind is now full of hurry up to see Su Xuan, naturally Xiao Mochen is what he says, although she didn't have time to think about the reason, but she has already decided to do what he said.

Xiao Mochen's face was full of relief, and he helped Su Wan to get on the boat to the emperor's cruise ship. He felt the body of the person in his arms trembling all the time, and his heart ached terribly.

When he got close to the cruise ship, Su Wan's toes just fell to the deck, and before he could stand firmly, his body leaned forward anxiously, wanting to take a quick step forward, and almost fell. Xiao Mochen firmly held her and slowly walked towards the houseboat with her steady steps.

At this moment, through Ji Qiubai's careful treatment, Su Xuan had been successfully pulled back from the death line. Su Xuan's chest shook, and then a mouthful of dirty blood spat out of his mouth, and finally slowly opened his eyes.

The old emperor stood aside, squinting at Ji Qiubai performing his medical skills, and admired his wonderful rejuvenation in his heart. But at the same time, he thought of Su Wan's appearance when he treated the patient, and in many ways he was the same as Ji Qiubai, and the corners of his eyes and eyebrows couldn't help but be a little suspicious.

When Ji Qiubai saw that Su Xuan was awake, his heart moved, and he immediately wiped the blood stains from his mouth with a handkerchief, and said softly: "You're fine, don't be afraid." ”

At this moment, Su Xuan's throat was already swollen and ulcerated due to the amount of cold river water poured into it before, and he couldn't say a word for the time being, but when he saw the familiar Ji Qiubai, he couldn't help but leave fragile tears.

Although he was a child, he also knew that this was the second time Ji Qiubai had saved his life.

Ji Qiubai immediately got up and came to the small desk, wrote down the prescription by the lamplight, and instructed the maid to say: "After a while, you will treat someone to take medicine for him according to my prescription, and take care of it carefully for a few days, and it will be fine." ”

"Yes." The maid looked at Ji Qiubai, who had an elegant face and was kind and benevolent, and she was already moved, and at this moment, she took the prescription from him with a red face, and ran out with a smoke, just bumping into Xiao Mochen and Su Wan, who were about to come in.

The maid raised her mouth in surprise, opened her mouth, and was about to kneel down to apologize, but Su Wan walked straight into the house as if she didn't see her, ignoring the emperor standing next to her, she knelt directly beside Su Xuan's bed, took Su Xuan's hand, and cried and said, "Xuan'er, it's all because I didn't take care of you." ”

Although Su Xuan's face is pale now and he has not fully recovered, as long as he sees that he is still alive, Su Wan can finally put his mind at ease.

Su Xuan looked at his sister, and he was also emotional, and tears kept rolling down like beads with broken threads.

Xiao Mochen saw that Su Xuan was well, and he also stabilized his mind a little, walked in front of the emperor and said: "Father Wanfu, Wan'er thinks of his brother, and he can't take care of the etiquette, and I hope that my father will forgive me." ”

The old emperor smiled slightly, waved his hand, and said, "It's okay, this is human nature." He then pointed to Ji Qiubai in front of the desk, and said with a smile: "This is the boy's life-saving benefactor, King Chen, you have to be grateful to others if you have to be in pain." ”

While speaking, the old emperor pretended to be nothing, but in fact, he had been secretly observing Xiao Mochen's reaction.

Xiao Mochen didn't know where he would, his face was light and light, and he bowed to Ji Qiubai from afar, and said: "The king attaches great importance to the diplomatic relations between the two countries, and helps the weak children, and this king is willing to do his best to give back." ”

Ironically, a few months ago, it was Xiao Mochen who used the blade that emitted cold light to break an inch of Ji Qiubai's heart and almost sent him to the West Heaven. However, today, both of them are so well-dressed, respecting the etiquette of diplomatic relations between the two countries and friendly exchanges.

Between the words, Xiao Mochen secretly warned Ji Qiubai that the interests of the two countries were the most important and that the previous grievances between the two must not be mentioned, where would Ji Qiubai not hear it, although he was surprised that a cold and ruthless person like Xiao Mochen would still care about cumbersome and vulgar etiquette, but he still cooperated and said: "King Chen is polite, it's just a gesture, it's not enough to worry about." ”

Between you and me, there are countless Dao Ming guns and hidden arrows suddenly moving towards each other, the old emperor raised his eyebrows, and then turned his gaze to Su Wan, who was kneeling on the ground, and said, "Daughter-in-law, do you want to get up and say something?" ”

The old emperor is gambling. From the problems that could not be seen in the confrontation between Xiao Mochen and Ji Qiubai, he bet that he could find the answer in Su Wan.

Su Wan was startled, her thin shoulders trembled slightly, and she didn't look back for a while. She is also afraid, in her current state, will she expose the secrets in her heart, will she let the old emperor seize the handle?

Xiao Mochen walked between the old emperor and Su Wan without a trace, blocked the old emperor's sight, and said: "Father, Wan'er was just excited and wept, and my current demeanor is probably not suitable for welcoming foreign guests." I'll take her down to tidy up later, and personally feast the king of Chenguo to express my gratitude, do you think it's okay? ”

Xiao Mochen's reason is impeccable, in the imperial etiquette system, there are strict etiquette standards for the wives and daughters of courtiers to meet foreign guests, and the current situation of Su Wan is indeed not suitable for greeting.

How could the old emperor not know this? He just deliberately wanted to test Su Wan's attitude towards Ji Qiubai, but if he continued to insist now, he would expose his thoughts, and Xiao Mochen, who was suspicious by nature, would definitely be the first to notice it.

In fact, Xiao Mochen now knew that the old emperor was beginning to doubt the relationship between Su Wan and Ji Qiubai, and he was now showing up to block it, the purpose was to show his attitude, no matter what, he was on Su Wan's side.

The old emperor smiled coldly, glanced at Su Wan's back, and then at Xiao Mochen, and said slowly: "It's better for King Chen to be thoughtful, and do it according to King Chen's wishes." ”

In the face of this son, even if he has the heart to do something, he is afraid that he will not make up his mind.

Although Xiao Mochen's expression did not move, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. In the luxurious inner room of the tour shipbuilding, Xiao Mochen ordered his subordinates to prepare a table full of delicious food, and sat with Ji Qiubai across the round table.

The old emperor saw that he couldn't see any useful fame before, so he asked Xiao Mochen to receive him, and he took three or two beautiful new concubines to the bow of the boat to find wine and have fun.

Su Wan was helped by Qing Wan to go to the ladies' dressing room to rearrange her makeup, and right now, there were only Xiao Mochen and Ji Qiubai in the empty hall.

Ji Qiubai didn't move his chopsticks, he sat quietly on the Eight Immortals chair, turning the jade wrench on his thumb, with a light face.

Xiao Mochen didn't make any moves, he sat in his position with an indifferent expression, as if he was looking at a non-existent guest, and he also had no intention of opening up first.

The low pressure between the two of them has been able to spread to all sides, and none of the servants and maids dare to enter the inner room to serve, for fear that if one of them accidentally offends any master, their little life will be lost immediately.

Su Wan tidied up her appearance, and walked into the inner hall under Qing Wan's careful service, and as soon as she entered, she clearly felt the discordant atmosphere between Xiao Mochen and Ji Qiubai, and her expression stiffened for a while.

Seeing Su Wan coming in, Ji Qiubai finally eased his expression a little, and looked at Su Wan simply and directly without speaking. This is not as good as the previous state banquet hall, this small inner hall is luxurious but private enough, he can do whatever he wants, see who he wants to see.

Xiao Mochen frowned, very unhappy that Su Wan was pretended to be in Ji Qiubai's eyes, so he beckoned to Su Wan and said, "Wan'er, come to my side quickly, let me see if your hands are cold." ”

Su Wan secretly scolded Xiao Mochen in his heart, he was really cautious and a chicken thief, but seeing his threatening smile despite the spring breeze on his face, he had no choice but to obediently walk up to him and reach out into his palm.

Feeling the warm and greasy touch in his hand, Xiao Mochen smiled slightly and said, "Wan'er is really frightened tonight, you should eat more good to replenish your body." ”

"Her physique is very weak, and her spleen and stomach are not very strong, so it is not suitable to eat more at night, so as not to accumulate food and indigestion and affect sleep."

Ji Qiubai looked at Xiao Mochen and said lightly, as if he was talking about a common sense that everyone should know.

Xiao Mochen smiled coldly, took Su Wan's hand tighter, looked at Ji Qiubai and said, "Do you think that this time I have taken the identity of a king, and I have no way to let you go out sideways?" ”

Su Wan frowned, squeezed Xiao Mochen's hand vigorously, and glared at him with his eyes.

Ji Qiubai's mood was not affected in any way, and he raised a faint smile and said, "King Chen, you said you wanted to thank me before, but it still counts?" ”

Xiao Mochen looked at him with some vigilance, pursed his lips, and did not answer immediately.

Ji Qiu's white eyes flowed, and then he looked at the scenery outside the window and said, "What? A gentleman is hard to chase after a horse, or is King Chen willing to be a villain? ”

Xiao Mochen also smiled and said, "Of course it counts." ”

"Okay, then I ask you to go out immediately now, and let me have a meal alone with Princess Chen." After Ji Qiubai heard Xiao Mochen's affirmative reply, he immediately threw out his request, but obviously paused when mentioning Su Wan, and finally said the identity he didn't want to face.

"Forgive me, I'm afraid this is not in line with etiquette." Xiao Mochen's eyes flashed with a dangerous cold light, and he looked at Ji Qiubai and said coldly.

Su Wan was also stunned, she looked at Ji Qiubai inexplicably, and she didn't know what his plans were for a while.

Ji Qiubai picked up the glass wine glass in front of him, raised it under the moonlight to look at the unpredictable fantasy color, and said with a slow smile: "As long as it takes half an hour, you can also eavesdrop outside, anyway, as long as I can't see you." ”

Su Wan saw that Xiao Mochen was about to turn into a desperate ghost, pounced on it, and tore Ji Qiubai into pieces, and read the latest chapter of "The Runaway Princess is Very Carefree, Claw Book House" for the first time.
