After learning that his fourth brother was missing, Wang Xiu took a boat to the sea for the first time.
The blue and depth of the sea shocked her, leaving her in deep awe of this sea area.
Returning to the villa again, Huang Zizhao brought back another piece of good news. There was a small island in the sea area where Wang Rui disappeared. Maybe Wang Rui was still alive.
At the same time, they must rush over as soon as possible, because they know it, and the Japanese pirates must also know it.
This time, the people who went to sea were Lu Yunhong and Lu Dayuan.
The couple met in a hurry and didn't say much. Although they believed in Lu Yunhong's decision, Wang Xiu was still in a daze.
Finally, Song Muting and Ji Yunwei took the initiative to confess that they had put chronic poison in the granary of the cargo ship, and that batch of things had been sent to the Japanese pirates from the beginning. But since it was a chronic poison, it would not be noticed for a while, at least
It will take three to five days.
And it was only the second day since the loss of their cargo ship. In other words, at this time, Lu Yunhong and Lu Dayuan went to find the Japanese pirates, but they still couldn't get over it during the battle.
But they can no longer hide it, worried that Wang Xiu will misunderstand Lu Yunhong and put Wang Rui in danger...
After Wang Xiu heard this, he was silent for a long time.
If Lu Yunhong had not gone to pick her up at night, but had stayed in the military camp, then the fourth brother who had received the news would not have gone to sea.
If we really think about it, she is the one to blame.
But feeling sorry for herself is not something she would do. It would be too late to think about it now.
She said to Song Muting and Ji Yunwei: "All we can do now is wait. Don't mess up your position anymore, and you don't have to panic too much. I believe Yun Hong and my fourth brother will come back safely."
When Song Muting and Ji Yunwei saw that she was relatively stable, the pressure in their hearts was greatly relieved, and they quickly told Wang Xiu about the toxicity of the poison.
At first, I felt weak and tired. Later, I developed vomiting and diarrhea, as if I had eaten something bad.
Then the person will suddenly develop a fever and completely lose the ability to fight.
Wang Xiu suddenly asked: "How much money did you invest in those merchant ships?"
Song Muting said: "A total of 350,000 taels is all the money we can raise in the short term."
Wang Xiudao: "Things made with so much money can indeed be fake. Thank you for your hard work. For the sake of the people of Dayan, I will write to Her Royal Highness the eldest princess about this contribution."
Ji Yunwei glanced at Song Muting and whispered: "I won't use it. I actually didn't invest much money?"
Song Muting said: "Why didn't you say that you are the eldest princess's son, so you are embarrassed to settle the score openly?"
Ji Yunwei stared at him and blushed slightly.
Wang Xiudao: "You can't hide such a big thing even if you want to."
After hearing this, Ji Yunwei reluctantly said: "Okay, I invested 150,000 taels. I have invested the most by myself."
Meaning, it's not evenly distributed.
Song Muting felt that this guy had changed very quickly, so he quickly said: "I invested one hundred thousand taels, which is the same as Yun Hong."
Wang Xiu nodded, indicating that he understood.
She went back to her room and wrote a letter to the eldest princess. In fact, she didn't know what to do, but she knew that she couldn't be idle, and she would easily have random thoughts when she was idle.
…
On the uninhabited island, the waves crashed against the rocks, making waves.
The trees were dimly shaded, and a damp breath came in waves.
Not far away, footsteps are getting closer and closer, seeming to be searching for something?
More than a dozen personal soldiers protected Wang Rui. They hid in the forest and listened to the footsteps to identify whether he was one of theirs.
Obviously, no.
Their expressions were extremely tense, and they held the sabers in their hands tightly. If they couldn't do it anymore, they would try their best to kill as many as they could.
Wang Rui's foot was injured and was roughly bandaged, but there was still a smell of blood, which showed how deep the wound was.
It was scratched by a wooden thorn when their warship was blown up.
How could those Japanese pirates have such powerful explosives? It was obvious that there was a traitor from Dayan among them.
Wang Rui has been thinking deeply, who is this traitor? Why does he hate Dayan so much?
At this time, they were also discovered by the hunting dogs brought by the Japanese pirates.
The battle was about to break out, and Wang Rui didn't think about returning alive. The reason why he lurked on this small island was to find out who was Dayan's traitor?
Soon, they were surrounded.
The Japanese pirates' torches also illuminated everything around them.
Wang Rui saw a man wearing a Dayan robe. He was about forty years old. He had piercing eyes and a dull face. When he saw him for the first time, his eyes narrowed coldly. It was obvious that he knew his identity.
"Wang Jiashiro."
"Very good. I was worried that I didn't have any leverage over Lu Yunhong. You were just in time."
Wang Rui sneered: "Do you think I will surrender?"
The man sneered: "Of course not, but the corpse is enough."
Wang Rui's eyes were as cold as sharp knives, and he wished he could cut the person in front of him into pieces. He immediately did so, holding up his long sword and killing him.
Suddenly, a cold arrow shot from behind and hit him in the arm.
The long sword in his hand almost fell. Wang Rui reacted and squeezed the long sword tighter, his face turning pale with pain.
The people around him fell one after another. Wang Rui raised his head, staring at the man with his blood-red pupils, wishing to cut him into pieces.
If you fight to the death, you are not even afraid of death, so what else are you afraid of?
Wang Rui rushed out of the soldiers surrounding him. This time, he regarded death as if he were home.
While fighting with all his strength, he was hit twice more. Wang Rui felt blood flowing like a waterfall, and a fighting spirit that was powerless but unrepentant still inspired him. If he was not dead yet, then he would kill himself.
In short, no matter it is the eldest brother or Yun Hong, they can understand him.
Another chop was taken on his back foot. Wang Rui was caught off guard and knelt down. The big knife in front of him was slashed at him. He wanted to block it, but he felt a sharp voice yelling from behind, and the scene was chaotic for a while.
His shaky body almost fell into a pool of blood. Suddenly, someone helped him from behind.
Wang Rui turned around and saw that face, and was so shocked that he almost thought he saw a ghost.
No... to be precise, half human and half ghost.
"You...who are you?"
Wang Rui couldn't believe it.
But the man said, "Stop talking yet." Then he used gauze to stop the bleeding.
Wang Rui raised his head and found that the man opposite was standing beside him with the Japanese pirates. He neither stepped forward to stop him nor asked anyone to kill him.
It seems that you are waiting for something?
But at the same time, his face was as gloomy as water, and he seemed to be very surprised and unhappy at the arrival of the people around him!
After the wounds on his body were almost bandaged, Wang Rui was helped up.
At this time, the man opposite also started talking.
I just heard him calling: "Your Majesty, you deceived your subordinates so much!"
Wang Rui, whose inner alarm bells were ringing: "..."??
