"In a few days, my father will return from the frontier." Empress Zhao spit out the lychee core, "He always said that we can't make a big deal, and he always said that Zhao Xiqin is smarter than this palace, look, Zhao Xiqin died in the hands of Xiao Tingchen, but didn't Xiao Tingchen die in the hands of this palace in the end?" ”

Empress Zhao's father, Zhao Taishi, has been guarding the southern border all these years, and he wanted to take advantage of the turmoil in southern Xinjiang over the years to take the opportunity to annex it, but he had no choice but to make a mess in southern Xinjiang itself, but he was quite united in dealing with outsiders.

He couldn't find any opportunity, coupled with the civil strife in Chang'an, so he finally decided to give up the fat of southern Xinjiang and return to the capital temporarily.

"That's what the mother said. Xiao Tingchen is dead, Yuan Zhan is also dead, and the remaining princes are no threat to His Royal Highness. The throne of Great Qi, His Royal Highness Eight is seated. ”

The two of them were talking, and on the other side, the exploding dragon boat.

Billowing smoke covered the entire dragon boat, Su Jiu clung to the railing, and looked in the direction of Xiao Tingchen in fear, but he couldn't see anyone at all.

I don't know life and death, I don't know where to go......

"Xiao Tingchen!"

She shouted.

The sound was drowned out by the sound of explosions and collapses, and the shouts of the tide on the shore.

Su Jiu's tears fell suddenly.

I hate Xiao Tingchen a lot, but I don't hate it enough to let him die.

She desperately wants to make her way through the messy ship, trying to find Xiao Tingchen.

Just a few steps away, the dragon boat exploded again.

The mast fell silently towards her!

At the last moment, a figure quickly flashed over, hugged Su Jiu and rolled to the side.

Su Jiu exclaimed in surprise and jumped into the river by that person!

She opened her eyes in the water.

Xie Rongjing was covered in embarrassment and bruises, holding her waist with one hand and rowing hard in the water with the other.

As if noticing her gaze, he looked down and smiled at her.

Su Jiu was stunned.

She saw something, and she looked into the distance.

The bottom of the water is brightly lit.

She saw Xiao Tingchen holding Nangong Nana and swimming towards the water.

He hugged it so tightly......

Su Jiu watched quietly, as if something was quietly shattering in his heart.

She originally thought that the reason why Xiao Tingchen coaxed Nangong Nana might be to play on the spot, and it was even very likely that she was deliberately making her jealous.

But......

At the moment when the danger came, this man chose to save Nangong Nana.

He gave up on her......

Xie Rongjing hugged Su Jiu and dragged her to the shore with great difficulty.

On the shore is the Xie family's painting boat, which is exquisitely shaped, and the hanging bamboo curtain covers the sight of people on both sides of the strait.

Su Jiu changed his clothes under the service of the maid, and came to the small hall of the painting boat, Xie Rongjing had already changed his clothes, and Zhao Wuyang was also there, rolling up half of the bamboo curtain, and was enjoying the fire in the middle of the river.

Xie Rongjing handed Su Jiu a bowl of hot ginger tea, his handsome face was a little deep, "Xiao Tingxiu investigated for me, what you said is really good, my good aunt really has an unsavory relationship with Murong Ming." Mo 13 made a lot of explosives for me, and Zhao Wuyang and I found a way to arrange it on Yuan Zhan's ship, which led to today's accident. It's just that the explosion on Xiao Tingchen's ship was not our doing. ”

Su Jiu hugged the ginger soup and took small sips.

She stared at the middle of the river and saw Xiao Tingchen holding Nangong Nana in her arms from a distance and boarding the painting boat of King Yong's Mansion.

She retracted her gaze, "Concubine Xie and Yuan Zhan are dead, you can also take revenge, you can rest assured." ”

"In a few days, I should go to Dongli, what do you want to do?" Xie Rongjing chuckled, took the towel from the maid's hand, and carefully wiped Su Jiu's hair, "Su Xiaojiu, I went to Dongli this time, and I don't know when I will be able to return." You are alone in Chang'an, how can I rest assured? ”

Deep and gentle tones.

Su Jiu looked sideways slightly, and saw Xie Rongjing lowering his eyebrows and eyes, and his movements were gentle.

Compared with back then, he is actually much calmer.

Su Jiu remembered the incident of Murong Villa for no reason.

So many people surrounded and suppressed them, Xie Rongjing carried her on his back without saying a word, and had to fight a way out for her.

Today, the dragon boat exploded, and he ran to the boat regardless of the danger, grabbed her and jumped into the river......

A strange warmth welled up in the girl's heart.

And this warmth was something that Xiao Tingchen had never given her.

She tilted her head slightly, avoiding Xie Rongjing's hand that wiped her hair, and said softly, "I'll come by myself." ”

Xie Rongjing paused, "Su Xiaojiu, just wipe your hair for you, as for seeing it like this?" ”

He couldn't help but say something, and continued to wipe Su Jiu's hair seriously.

Su Jiu's eyes changed, and he couldn't tell what it was like in his heart.

Zhao Wuyang finished eating a glass of wine, glanced at them, and sneered: "Dog man and woman." ”

Her tone was the same as Xiao Tingchen's coldness and mockery.

Su Jiu almost thought she was Xiao Tingchen!

The atmosphere in the painting boat was awkward, and after a while, Su Jiu said softly: "I'll go outside to breathe." ”

After she left, Xie Rongjing stared at Zhao Wuyang coldly, "If you don't speak, you'll die?!" ”

Zhao Wuyang's lips were upturned, and his face was full of a look of watching a good show, "Do you like Su wine?" ”

"What does it have to do with you?"

"How much do you like Su wine?" Zhao Wuyang tilted his head and played with the small pigtails that fell on his chest, "If you have to her, I'm willing to help you get her." ”

Xie Rongjing has seen Zhao Wuyang's scheming and the city government.

Jian frowned, and he said suspiciously: "Xiao Tingchen controls the court, how can you help me?" ”

"Soon, he'll fall from the position of regent, and he won't say the same thing all the time."

The girl's lacquer eyes are bright and full of demonic energy.

Xie Rongjing didn't know what the hell she was up to, thought about it, and asked again, "Why do you want to help me?" ”

"Because you're stupid." Zhao Wuyang saw the man's anger, and the banter on his face immediately turned into a mood, "Let's be honest, I'm willing to help you because of my big brother." He wants you to live happily, and if Su wine can make you happy, then I will help you get Su wine. It's as simple as that. ”

Xie Rongjing was still frowning.

Zhao Wuyang wrapped his hair braid around his fingers, "Little Hou Ye, you are obsessed with fair and honest competition, but you don't know that bright and honest is the reason why you lost." How Xiao Tingchen got Su wine, do you remember? ”

Xie Rong nodded his head.

Zhao Wuyang: "At that time, the Rong family framed the Lu Guo Mansion, Xiao Tingchen clearly knew about it early on, but he deliberately concealed it and did not report it. Because only when Su Jiu is down, he can easily get her. In this way, the belly is extremely black. I remember that on the wooden machine that night, Xiao Tingchen talked to you and persuaded you to give up your pursuit of Su wine. In my opinion, it is clearly his moral kidnapping, he himself is cunning and cunning, but he demands that you abide by your moral ...... Xie Rongjing, only a fool like you would agree so simply. ”

Xie Rongjing's eyebrows and eyes were gloomy.

If it weren't for Zhao Wuyang's mention, he wouldn't have thought of these details.

Zhao Wuyang chuckled and toasted him with a glass of wine, and his tone was firm, "You will get her." ”
