Shen Qingqing belatedly looked at the burning ship and lamented that she had run fast enough, otherwise she would have become a burning cloud now.
At this moment, the sound of wind mixed with the sound of bows and arrows, and the voices of soldiers on the ship, Qi Yeshen could not hear her voice at all.
But the ships around her were on fire, and the sky-high firelight illuminated her figure. The woman stretched out her hand and said, "Your Highness, there is a water bandit who has escaped over there. Shoot him quickly!"
The fire around Shen Qingqing was so great that he could only see her outline, not her face at all. She couldn't make a sound at all. When she opened her mouth, the thick smoke around her mouth came towards her throat.
She saw Jiang Yi hand the bow and arrow to Qi Yeshen, apparently wanting Qi Yeshen to shoot her.
Qi Yeshen held the bow and arrow, his handsome brows furrowed tightly. He had an intuition that something was wrong. He had clearly hit so many boats, why didn't he fight back? No one else appeared, and there was only one person on the lake.
The woman beside me urged: "Your Highness, shoot him quickly, this man is the shipkeeper."
Qi Yeshen's hand, which had never hesitated, stopped at this moment. He saw that the people on the boat seemed to be waving to him.
Jiang Yi on the side said quickly: "This person actually dares to provoke His Highness, how disgusting it is!"
"Whoosh——"
Jiang Yi suddenly drew an arrow and shot at Shen Qingqing. Shen Qingqing had only one reaction. If she survived, Jiang Yi must be exiled to a bitter cold place to grow osmanthus.
Facing the fast and urgent rocket, Shen Qingqing tried her best to avoid it. However, before she had time to rest, she found that her bamboo raft was on fire. The most unfortunate thing was that it had begun to leak. Jiang Yi tried to fix it a few times. arrow.
That was really going to kill her! Shen Qingqing had no choice but to jump into the water.
If I had known why she worked so hard to make the bamboo raft, I would be so angry!
Qi Yeshen's heart ached for no reason after he saw the figure falling into the water. He looked at Jiang Yi displeased: "Who asked you to shoot arrows?"
"Your Highness, who asked that man to provoke you? If Your Highness had just drawn the bow and shot an arrow by himself, that man would have been a corpse."
Qi Yeshen had a cold face and said nothing. He just felt flustered for no reason. He had been uneasy since this afternoon.
He didn't know what was going on with Shen Qingqing. He thought that she was smart and had Fenxiang, who was very skilled in martial arts, so nothing would happen to her. However, he suddenly received the news that the water bandits were attacking and had to leave. He was still a little worried. Can't bear it.
Due to his repeated victories on the battlefield over the years, even when the army returned to the court, the emperor not only did not take away his military power, but also gave him all the troops around the imperial city.
How can the position of prince be so easy to sit in? The higher he sits, the more people will target and plot him everywhere. In order to have a safe wedding, Qi Yeshen personally led troops to encircle and suppress this generation of water bandits.
Unexpectedly, after chasing him at night, he only found a few ships, and there was no picture of him wiping out his lair as he imagined.
With the addition of the minions caught in the afternoon and these broken ships, Qi Yechen already felt that he had been tricked.
"Miss Ningxue, there are only some broken boats there and no one else at all. This is the water bandits' lair you mentioned? Where are the people?"
Zhou Ningxue looked at Qi Yechen's pair of uncertain cold eyes, and was already retreating in her heart.
"Your Highness, maybe... maybe the other party sensed something was wrong and abandoned the ship and fled. I can't really tell if this is a blind act. Your Highness, I didn't lie to you. Those are real ships!"
Qi Yeshen looked cold and said, "You'd better not lie to me. The consequences are not something you can bear."
After saying that, Qi Yeshen asked Jiang Yi and his people to check the news. As soon as Jiang Yi was in the boat, he noticed that his oar seemed to be caught by something under the water before he could paddle far.
Jiang Yi was so frightened that his face changed on the spot. He had heard from the old man when he was very young that there were water monkeys under the water, which were transformed into water ghosts and specialized in looking for substitutes underwater.
"Water, water ghost! Your Highness has a water ghost!"
Jiang Yi's roar attracted the attention of everyone on the boat. Two soft, boneless hands suddenly stretched out in the bright water. The hands were slender and had delicate skin, and blood was still oozing from the palm of one hand.
Jiang Yi was afraid of nothing in his life, but he was afraid of this thing. He would immediately scream and hit people on the forehead with the paddle.
"Ghost!" he screamed at the top of his lungs.
Seeing this, Qi Yechen drew his arrow and shot at the people in the water. He didn't believe that these ghostly things were most likely the remnants of the water bandits.
Shen Qingqing grabbed the oar that Jiang Yi waved towards her with one hand, but she did not dodge the cold arrow behind her.
As soon as her head came out of the water, she scolded Jiang Yi angrily: "Shut up!"
"Crown Princess..."
Before the word concubine could be finished, the cold arrow penetrated Shen Qingqing's body directly. Shen Qingqing finally used her last strength to swim to Jiang Yi's boat, but she didn't expect to avoid Chu Yi but not Fifteen.
Shen Qingqing's body slipped into the water again, and Jiang Yi was shocked. At this time, he no longer cared to explore why Shen Qingqing was here, but now Shen Qingqing was killed because of his ghostly screams.
"Your Highness, the person you shot was the Crown Princess!!!" Jiang Yi jumped from the boat.
At the same time, a black figure jumped down into the blood-stained water. Qi Yeshen finally knew why he was frightened. There was a reason for everything.
He actually shot and killed the woman he loved most, a treasure that he usually held in his hands for fear of melting and held in his mouth for fear of flying away.
Qi Yeshen didn't know where the arrow hit Shen Qingqing. When he saw the red blood on the water, his heart began to hurt.
Qing'er...
Qi Yeshen jumped into the water desperately, but the people watching quietly on the cliff in the distance smiled: "I really didn't expect this girl to have such a miraculous effect, but it went more smoothly than our original plan. .”
Another person waved his fan and said, "It's indeed interesting. The prince who is victorious in every battle also has a weakness. Originally, he was just performing a play tonight, but he didn't expect that God is on our side. There are not many opportunities like this."
Qi Yeyun stood with his hands behind his back, "I should have won this round, but it's a pity that Miss Shen, a wonderful person, comes and kills the prince! The whole army attacks!"
In an instant, many black-clad assassins appeared on the cliff. They did not expect that Qi Yeshen would go into trouble for a woman. This action that was originally intended to divide the Shen family and the prince gradually evolved into assassinating the prince.
Several people dived into the water with sharp weapons. Qi Yeshen, who is a god on land, still has to be captured when he gets underwater?
"Escort!" Ye Qi and others immediately issued the order.
Qi Yeshen can't care about other crises now. Shen Qingqing is the only one in his mind and heart. What should he do if something happens to her?
Qing'er, please don't let anything happen to you!
However, it was not easy to find a person underwater without lights. At this moment, a hand suddenly emerged from the water.
