He came over and stood with her. Her head only reached his shoulders, and she looked up at him: "Do you think there will be another storm in this weather?"

King Qin stretched out his hand, as if grabbing a handful of moist air, then looked at a few seabirds that had gone away, and shook his head: "No, the weather will not change much in the past two or three days."

Hua Rong breathed a sigh of relief.

"Are you scared by the storm that day?"

"Yeah, I always thought I would be buried under the sea."

"Girl, don't be afraid. With me from now on, you don't have to be afraid of any storm."

She was faintly afraid, of course, not because of the "storm", but because of the upcoming emotional "storm" - King Qin had helped her this time, so what should she do

According to his personality, he can actually find himself after many years. Now, he is looking for him instead. How could he give up

She forced a smile: "King Qin, if I can escape with my life, I will definitely give you a gift when you get married."

"How could I marry someone else?"

She stubbornly said: "Yes! I saw it! You have many women."

Now she has a handle on her, but what should she do

"I won't look for anyone else in the future, really..."

"You found me! So, you are not allowed to say that I am your wife anymore."

King Qin was so angry that he could not speak.

He changed the subject: "Girl, who are the important ministers Zhao Deji has appointed now?"

She sighed: "Wang Boyan, Huang Qianshan, etc..."

"I'm right, these two people are shameless people who flatter me. It seems that there is not much difference between Zhao Deji and him. I really don't know if it is worth it for us to save him like this..."

Hua Rong did not answer. Recently, she had become more and more aware of this strong feeling. However, she suppressed it again and again, reminding herself that the Ninth Prince had saved her life!

If he hadn't been able to rescue her, he would have been buried in the belly of the fish. How could he still be strolling here now

However, things have changed and the people in my memory have long since changed, and my grateful heart has gradually developed a grudge.

She sighed secretly, knowing that if she followed King Qin's words, not only would he be shaken, but she would also be shaken.

"Girl, when Zongze died, the imperial court lost its support. Zhao Deji didn't have trusted guards or ministers around him. What kind of situation could he achieve?"

She reluctantly said: "Yue Pengju repeatedly defeated the Jin soldiers..."

"Yue Pengju?"

Yue Pengju regretted his marriage and publicly announced that he wanted to marry Hua Rong, which offended the dragon. Zhao Deji transferred him to a distant battlefield and fled temporarily without settling his personal grudges. In the future, he would sit on the throne. Thinking of today's humiliation, how could he let him go

However, King Qin didn't want to mention Yue Pengju at this moment. He looked at Hua Rong quietly and saw her leaning on the railing, looking at the sea in the distance. He didn't know if she was thinking about Yue Pengju.

He was very unhappy in his heart, and said calmly, "How can Zhao Deji really trust him? Yue Pengju, be smart and leave as soon as possible, otherwise, it will be another rabbit that dies and the dog is cooked, and the bird is gone and the bow is hidden..."

Hua Rong was worried that this was the case, but when he said it, it always sounded unpleasant to her ears. She turned around and leaned on the railing again, but refused to agree.

"Girl?"

"Girl??"

King Qin screamed twice, and it happened every time. As long as Yue Pengju was mentioned, he obviously felt inferior to him. He was angrily, and was about to get angry, when he saw her raising her head to look at a flying seabird, her thin back , and couldn't bear to get angry again, and warned myself again and again:

This is really the last chance!

If he waits for her to get married to Yue Pengju, it will be too late for him to do anything!

No, we must seize this opportunity no matter what.

He took a deep breath, he didn't know why every time in front of her, she was happy, she was angry, she was weak, she was sad, and he would always be defeated.

"Girl..."

She raised her head and saw him handing over a large fruit, which was exactly the kind of fruit grown on a large eucalyptus-like tree that she had seen yesterday. She said it was delicious, so he brought some on board.

She was feeling a little thirsty, so she picked up the fruit and ate it silently. After eating half of it, King Qin handed over the other half. She shook her head: "If you don't want to eat it, you can eat it."

"I don't like this kind of childish food, you eat it."

She took the fruit and took another bite. He saw a smile slowly appear on her face and said softly: "Girl, I brought a big basket in the cabin. You can eat as much as you want."

"Um."

Besides, Zhao Deji and others spent two stormy days on the boat. They had not seen Hua Rong for a long time. They were waiting to return on Friday. The longer they waited, the more anxious they became. Fortunately, they found out his identity on Friday and knew that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. This time, the Emperor of the Zhao family If you escape the disaster, you will be a great hero. Therefore, you should be respectful, serve you carefully, and use all the products on the island to entertain everyone.

However, the Jin army was getting closer and closer, and he and others could not live on this deserted island for a long time. Zhao Deji could not eat or drink even the delicacies. On this day, he returned to the island early on Friday and returned to the island early. Everyone saw that he was the only one, and their hearts skipped a beat. It's half cold.

Zhao Deji said hurriedly: "Where is Hua Rong? Why didn't she come back with you?"

Friday quickly saluted: "Miss Hua Rong is sick, and King Qin said that when she recovers, he will personally bring her back."

"Sick? How could she be sick? Did King Qin make things difficult for her?"

"It's just a fever caused by the rain. King Qin personally took good care of her and said that he would send her back as soon as she gets better."

Zhao Deji breathed a sigh of relief, and Xu Caizhi also nodded secretly. Since the King of Qin did not embarrass Hua Rong, he and others would be saved. Sure enough, Friday said: "The King of Qin invites everyone to go to the island to live in safety, for fear of a sneak attack by the Jin army. …”

Xu Caizhi hurriedly asked: "How far is the Jin army from here?"

"The Jin Army has colluded with a pirate force here, and we are not sure yet."

Zhao Deji was even more panicked, secretly hating the pirate leader for showing off and delaying in coming.

After spending the whole night in such a hurry, on the second day, everyone found that Zhao Deji's eyes were red and his lips were covered with blood blisters. Even though Eunuch Kang carefully served him again and again, it didn't help. He still had trouble sleeping and eating.

Lin Zhijie and his son were constantly guarding him, and dozens of sailors and handymen on the ship also formed a temporary escort team. Zhao Deji looked at this improvised army with mixed feelings, but he did not feel safe at all.

Early in the morning, he came to the seaside and looked at it.

In the distance, a horn was heard, and dozens of warships roared in. The leader was a tall five-tooth warship, raising a huge sail, with a huge flag hanging on it, saying "Qin". Character.

Zhao Deji's coastal defense was short-lived, and the coastal defense general at that time had passed away, but he was not unfamiliar with this big character, and he was shocked - it turned out to be the pirates he had fought with before.

But, how could King Qin's power expand to this sea area

Now that the pirate leader has arrived, is it a blessing or a curse

As the ship slowly approached, everyone held their breath and concentrated. Even Zhou Qi and Friday were panicking: What decision will King Qin make

Zhao Deji watched nervously as an extremely tall and burly man stood on the boat, wearing heavy pirate armor and holding a broadsword. He looked like a majestic lion king, and the petite woman following him was none other than Hua Rong.

Zhao Deji saw it clearly, Xu Caizhi first whispered: "Oh my God, is the King of Qin Qin Shangcheng?"

Eunuch Kang was even more delighted, and his voice was sharp and thin: "It's him, Qin Shangcheng."

Zhao Deji felt nervous. He didn't expect that this big pirate leader had sneaked into the military camp for so long without even noticing it. He even wanted to reward him. No wonder he refused.

What was his purpose in sneaking into the military camp

Could it be that he was really looking for Hua Rong

Before he could recover, he heard King Qin shouting: "Everyone, get on the boat quickly, we have found traces of the Jin army ahead."

The word "Jinjun" was like a reminder, and Zhao Deji subconsciously ran towards the ship in large strides.

Everyone also immediately entered a fighting state.

Hua Rong jumped off the boat and ran over: "Guan family, don't panic, the Jin army won't be able to catch up for a while."

Zhao Deji was still in shock, and King Qin loudly said: "Zhou Qi, take everyone to the Five-Tooth Warship."

Zhou Qi knew what he meant. The Lin family's merchant ship had encountered a storm and was badly damaged. He nodded. Lin Zhijie was alert and took a step forward: "Your Majesty, get on the war ship first."

Hua Rong also whispered: "Guan family, go up."

Although Zhao Deji could not trust King Qin, he believed in Hua Rong. When he saw her dressed in military uniform, holding a bow and arrow in her hand, and guarding him with all her body, he felt reassured: "Rong'er, are you okay?"

"I'm fine."

When the King of Qin heard his "Rong'er", he became very angry and said sternly: "Everyone, please stop dawdling, the Bird Jin Army is coming..."

Everyone swarmed to get on the ship. In a panic, Zhao Deji discovered that except for the Lin family sailors, King Qin's pirates were not at all chaotic in their advance and retreat, and were completely well-trained.

No wonder he has been able to dominate for many years. He wanted to recruit the King of Qin, but he remained calm. He neither asked Hua Rong nor the King of Qin. He only followed Xu Caizhi and climbed onto the deck. After a while, he saw a ship faintly behind him. Chase after.

Only then did he realize that what King Qin said was true. Presumably, the Jin army found traces of himself and others after searching these days and found them. He looked at King Qin's pirate army of less than 200 people, and then looked at Lin Zhijie's dozens of sailors felt chilled. With less than three hundred people, how could they withstand the tens of thousands of Jin troops? Even if there are not enough ships and not much carrying capacity, there are at least tens of thousands of pursuing troops. How can I resist them

He clung to the side of the ship, his face pale. Could it be that God's will was such that he, like his father and brother, would not be able to escape this disaster

He turned around and saw Hua Rong standing next to him, concentrating on holding a bow and arrow. His heart was even more miserable, and he said in a low voice: "Rong'er, maybe God's will is like this..."

Seeing that he was completely frustrated, Hua Rong hurriedly said: "The officials don't have to be like this! The Jin army is still some distance away. As long as we can take a detour and make a few more journeys, we can land and go to Zhenjiang..."

"I'm afraid that Zhenjiang has already been occupied by the Jin Army. What's more, the Jin Army will soon be chasing..."

"The official family had people who rescued them along the way, and they escaped even a big storm. Don't worry, they will be able to turn disaster into good luck this time."

When Zhao Deji heard her comforting him, he thought of how he had to meet an old fisherman while escaping at night, how Lin Zhijie and others sacrificed their lives to protect him during the storm, and now the King of Qin, whose power was much more dangerous than the previous two times, reluctantly nodded. He calmed down: "I hope so. If we escape this catastrophe, everyone on the boat will be my great contributors."

Hua Rong was also afraid in his heart, but smiled slightly: "They will definitely be loyal to the officials."

Zhao Deji really didn't believe in the King of Qin, but when he saw him coming over and looking at him eagerly, he suddenly remembered the wedding dress that Hua Rong wore when he fled, and was even more confused. Hua Rong insisted that he had married Yue Pengju, and now Qin How should the king handle himself? He smiled bitterly, knowing that he couldn't join in the fun no matter what.

In order to disarm King Qin, he immediately stood up straight and asked, "Qin Shangcheng, how is the situation now?"

King Qin looked gloomy: "The Goujin Army probably colluded with the pirates, otherwise, they would never have been able to catch up so quickly. If so, it would be difficult to deal with."

"Is there anyone in the Jin army who is proficient in water warfare?"

Hua Rong said: "I heard that there is a Han general under Jin Wushu's command, named Han Chang. He is from the south and is familiar with water warfare."

"This is Han Chang, who colluded with the pirates. The pirates are called Wang Erqi according to the ranking. I once sent people to attack, but failed to win..."

Before King Qin finished speaking, he suddenly said: "No, Wang Erqi is also familiar with that fast passage. If he leads his troops to guard it and arrives early, we will be attacked from both sides..."

Zhao Deji's slightly relaxed mood tightened again, but he saw King Qin wave his hand and roared: "Speed up, all ships are moving at full speed, and they must reach the passage before dark..."

Immediately, another signal used by pirates to notify the pirates was heard, a very shrill whine.
