Chapter 658 Her heart is broken

"In a few days, my father will come back from the border." Empress Zhao spat out the lychee core, "He always said that we can't achieve great things, and always said that Zhao Xiqin is smarter than this palace. Look, Zhao Xiqin died at the hands of Xiao Tingchen, but Xiao Tingchen Didn't he die in the hands of Ben Gong in the end?"

Empress Zhao's father, Grand Master Zhao, had been guarding the southern border these years. He wanted to take advantage of the turmoil in southern Xinjiang and take the opportunity to annex it. However, Southern Xinjiang itself was in chaos, but it was quite united when dealing with outsiders.

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

"Your Majesty is right. Xiao Tingchen is dead, and Yuan Zhan is also dead. The remaining princes pose no threat to His Highness the Eighth Highness. His Highness the Eighth Highness is assured of Daqi's throne."

The two people in this room were talking, and on the other side was the exploding dragon boat.

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

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

"Xiao Tingchen!"

she yelled.

The sound was lost in the sound of explosions and collapses one after another, and the tide-like shouts from the shore.

Su Jiu's tears fell all of a sudden.

He really hated Xiao Tingchen, but not enough to make him die.

She desperately tried to find Xiao Tingchen through the messy ship.

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

The mast fell silently toward her!

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

Su Jiu exclaimed, and was hugged by that man and jumped into the river!
She opened her eyes in the water.

Xie Rongjing was covered in embarrassment and bruises, with one arm around her waist, and the other struggling to paddle in the water.

Seeming to notice her gaze, he lowered his head and smiled at her.

Su Jiu was stunned.

Seeing something out of the corner of her eye, she looked into the distance.

The underwater light is bright.

She saw Xiao Tingchen holding Nangong Nanai and swimming towards the surface of the water.

He hugged 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 Nanai might be playing tricks on the occasion, or even deliberately make her jealous.

but……

At the moment of danger, 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 effort.

The painting boat of Xie's family was parked on the bank. It was exquisitely shaped, and the hanging bamboo curtains blocked the sight of people on both sides of the bank.

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, half of the bamboo curtain was rolled up, and he was admiring the fire in the middle of the river.

Xie Rongjing handed Su Jiu a bowl of hot ginger tea, with a serious face on his face, "Xiao Tingxiu did the investigation for me, and what you said was indeed true. My good aunt actually had an shady relationship with Murong Ming. Mo Shisan Made a lot of explosives for me, and Zhao Wuyang and I tried to arrange it on Yuan Zhan's boat, which led to today's accident. It was just the explosion on Xiao Tingchen's boat, but it was not what we did."

Su Jiu hugged the ginger soup and sipped it in small sips.

She stared at the middle of the river, and saw Xiao Tingchen holding Nangong Nanai from a distance, boarding the painting boat of Prince Yong's Mansion.

She withdrew her gaze, "Concubine Xie Guifei and Yuan Zhan are both dead, and you will be rewarded for your revenge, so you can rest assured."

"It's time to go to Dongli in a few days, why not?" Xie Rongjing smiled lightly, took the towel from the maid, and carefully wiped Su Jiu's hair, "Su Xiaojiu, I don't know when I will go to Dongli this time. How can I rest assured that you are alone in Chang'an?"

Deep and gentle tone.

Su Jiu looked sideways slightly, and saw Xie Rongjing lowering his eyebrows and his movements gently.

Compared to the past, he was actually much calmer.

Su Jiu remembered Murong Villa for no reason.

With so many people besieging them, Xie Rongjing carried her on his back without saying a word, and had to fight her way out.

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

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

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

She turned her head slightly, avoiding Xie Rongjing's hand wiping her hair, and said softly: "I will do it myself."

Xie Rongjing paused, "Su Xiaojiu, I'm just brushing your hair for you, why are you so out of touch?"

He couldn't help but continue to brush Su Jiu's hair seriously.

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

After Zhao Wuyang ate a glass of wine, he glanced at them and sneered, "Boss and boy."

Her tone was exactly the same cold and mocking as Xiao Tingchen's.

Su Jiu almost thought she was Xiao Tingchen!

The atmosphere in the boat was awkward, and after a while, Su Jiu said softly, "I'll go outside to get some air."

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

Zhao Wuyang's lips curled up, his face full of excitement, "Do you like Su Jiu?"

"What's with you?"

"How much do you like Su Jiu?" Zhao Wuyang tilted his head, playing with the little braids hanging on his chest, "If she is the must, I'd like to help you get her."

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

Jian Mei frowned, and he doubted: "Xiao Tingchen controls the court and insists on one thing, how can you help me?"

"Very soon, he will fall from the position of regent, he will not always say what he says."

The girl's lacquer eyes are clear and bright, overflowing with a demonic aura.

Xie Rongjing didn't know what evil idea she had, thought for a while, and then asked: "Why did you help me?"

"Because you're stupid." Zhao Wuyang saw the man sullen, and the banter on his face immediately turned into amorous feelings, "Let's be honest, I'm willing to help you because of big brother. He hopes you live happily, if Su Jiu can make you Happiness, then I will help you get Su wine. It's as simple as that."

Xie Rongjing still frowned.

Zhao Wuyang twisted the braids between his fingers, "Young Lord, you are obsessed with open and honest competition, but you don't know that being open and honest is the reason for your loss. Do you remember how Xiao Tingchen got Su Jiu?"

Xie Rong nodded.

Zhao Wuyang: "At that time, the Rong family framed Duke Lu's mansion. Xiao Tingchen knew about it early in the morning, but deliberately concealed it. Because only when Su Jiu was in trouble, he could easily get her. Such a method was extremely black-bellied. I remember that Xiao Tingchen once talked with you on the tree of the night organ, and advised you to give up your pursuit of Su Jiu. In my opinion, that was clearly his moral kidnapping. He himself is cunning and cunning, but he asks you to abide by morality... Xie Rongjing, and only A fool like you would agree so simply."

Xie Rongjing's brows were gloomy.

If Zhao Wuyang hadn't mentioned it, he wouldn't have thought of these details.

Zhao Wuyang offered him a glass of wine with a low smile, and said firmly, "You will get her."
