Slave to Queen: One Night Bride

Chapter 25
He turned around and left, and never came back that night.

The next morning, when Hua Rong got up, he found that there was no one on the island except for a few pirates who were on duty, and even the prostitutes who were glamorous were gone. "went.

In the early morning, it was raining lightly, and the sea was gray.

The big ship "Lingji" moored at the port is still quiet.

This ship was supposed to transport a piece of "strange stone" excavated in the southeast region for today's day, but in fact it was the furniture that the Prime Minister Cai Jing had accumulated for himself.Cai Jing's father and son have power in the court, they are prime ministers, and they are the richest in the world. However, he has a keener sense of smell than the romantic emperor. He has smelled the wind very early, and in his ears and eyes, he is repaying the Jin Kingdom every day.The Jin army's southward movement is imminent, and the prosperity of this dynasty is about to wake up.

Cai Jing is a well-known talent in this dynasty. He has read the history books. When he was at the top, he also understood the fate of the powerful officials of the past dynasties. Therefore, he began to leave a way for himself very early.

He didn't care about the robbery of the beauty who paid tribute last time, but this time to protect his property, he sent a large number of elite soldiers to escort him to ensure his safe arrival.

After several nights of vigilance, passing by several piers, there was no trace of pirates. Today is dawn, and the big ship is about to set sail again.

Just as the big ship set sail, dozens of small boats driven by water wheels roared in with tall rams. Behind the small warship was a five-toothed warship.

Most of the soldiers on the ship were the cronies mobilized by Cai Jing. The temporarily formed sailors looked tough, but their combat effectiveness was as vulnerable as the national power of this dynasty. Seeing that this group of pirates was so numerous and powerful, they charged in an unheard of formation. On the big ship, I don't know how many troops are left. I panicked before I could organize an effective resistance. I was hit by the ram and the pirates rushed to the big ship with their swords. ...

King Qin stood on the deck of the big ship, watching boxes and boxes of belongings being carried out, he was very happy, when he suddenly saw a five-color sailboat approaching at a fast speed, that kind of decoration was not the embroidered ships of the imperial court, he was very experienced, It was immediately obvious that this was another pirate ship.

The mantis catches the cicada and the oriole is behind, a strong enemy is coming!
The main force of the pirates was looting on the big ship, and even if the order was given, it was too late to retreat.It was too late to say it, and then I saw that on the opposite search ship, under the cover of shields lined up on the deck, the archers behind them shot arrows like raindrops at the plundering pirates.

"Quickly go back to the five-tooth warship!"

King Qin gave an order, grabbed a sharp arrow with his hand, and caught a sharp arrow that was shot. The pirates didn't care about their belongings, and rushed to flee to the small warship, but how could they escape the flying arrow?Immediately, there were screams, trampled on each other, and it was hard to tell whether it was a pirate or a soldier, and the corpses fell into the sea one after another...

King Qin waved the "White Deer" sword in his hand, and the hard arrows shot from a long distance fell to the ground one after another.Finally, he was about to grab onto a small warship, but the sharp soldiers on the opposite large ship rushed over fully armed, slashing at close range with their knives.King Qin saw that his side suffered heavy casualties and had never suffered such a disastrous defeat for many years. He knew that he could no longer fight, and was about to jump off the warship when three broadswords slashed from three directions. He avoided the siege, but he couldn't dodge it The sharp arrow flying from behind was stabbing into the left shoulder... At almost the same time, under the protection of several pirates, he had already jumped into the boat and boarded the five-tooth warship at lightning speed...

On the big boat behind, a young man stood on the deck, watching the blood on the opposite boat flow into a river.Behind him, followed by three guards with knives.

A burly man who hammered a pumpkin came back hurriedly in a strong outfit. His name was Chu Zhongwen, and he was the leader of a group of pirates who had just been subdued by the Ninth Prince.

Facing the young man, he bowed respectfully: "Lord Ninth, those pirates have escaped, do you want to catch up?"

"First clean up the property on this ship and dispose of it properly. At the same time, pay attention to the traces of the pirates, pursue them while we are winning, and wipe them all out."

"Yes."

The misty rain continued to fall, and the waves were surging. The vast sea and the bustling capital city are completely different styles. Looking at the distance, the Ninth Prince feels very depressed. Perhaps, even with the water in the sea, the palace cannot be extinguished. Drunk life and death in the fire cooking oil - except for the father and his six important ministers - the six thieves!
Most of the people in this world know that the iron cavalry of the Kingdom of Jin is about to step over like a horse.

Even Cai Jing has already begun to smuggle his own furniture to a safe place.The sea route is only one of them, and his larger industry is still on land.

"Lord Nine, the pirates are fleeing to an isolated island, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack..."

"What's the background of this pirate?"

"The pirate leader, nicknamed King Qin, is the overlord of the sea in this area. They were also the ones who robbed the 'Hua Shi Gang' last time. This time they were suddenly attacked, and they will definitely not let it go..."

An attendant took out a map of the ocean, and the Ninth Prince looked at it carefully for a while before raising his head: "The purpose of our going to sea this time is not for these pirates, so be careful."

"Yes."

The island is unprecedentedly clean.

Seven or eight pirates on duty stepped up their vigilance and guarded the remaining three ships.They were very relaxed in guarding Hua Rong, basically just guarding the exit to the sea, and it was fine to prevent her from escaping.According to King Qin's order, during his absence, the two pirates were not allowed to monitor closely and retreated outside together.

Accompanying Hua Rong is the young Yue Pengju.

This time, King Qin didn't take him out to sea, but instead ordered him to guard Hua Rong before leaving.Hua Rong was very surprised, but she was also happy to be with the boy.

After all, he was a young man, he was hungry for two days, and once he was given water, he regained his vitality in two or three days.Although the two have known each other not long ago, they have long been in love with the closest siblings.Hua Rong told him her thoughts without any concealment, and the two of them spent the whole day thinking about how to escape through that bay.

The young man proposed to build a crude raft, but Hua Rong thought that it would take a long time to build the raft just by the two of them, and even a single raft would not be able to escape the vast sea.

However, she did not give up at all. Even if there was a glimmer of hope, she magnified it 100 times, and she did what she said, and immediately cut wood and built a raft with the boy at the water bay.Although no one bothered, after three days, even the required materials were not ready.

This morning, Hua Rong was about to go out to raft with the young man, but just as he went out, he asked a pirate to run to the beach in a hurry, looking very flustered.

Her heart tightened, and she saw the young man running from the opposite side, and whispered in front of her, "Sister, it's not good, King Qin is back..."

King Qin came back from looting again?
Hua Rong was terrified, every time he came back it would be a ravage, and he once threatened that he would drive him away immediately when he came back this time. Before driving him away, he didn't know how to ravage himself first.

The young man was clever: "Sister, I have already hidden those things in the water plants, King Qin won't find out..."

Hua Rong breathed a sigh of relief: "Go back first, lest that devil see you and beat you again."

The boy said anxiously, "Sister, what about you?"

Hua Rong didn't know what to do, but forced himself to be calm: "I'm fine, you go back first. He won't hit me."

King Qin really didn't hit her, the young man felt a little relieved and went back.

The five-tooth warship docked.

The pirates on duty immediately realized that the situation was not good. This time, not only did they not "return with a full load", but only a dozen or so of the hundred and ten brothers who went out survived.

King Qin jumped off the boat, he was shot by an arrow, and his shoulder, which was simply bandaged, was bleeding again due to the violent action.But he didn't care, his eyes swept across the crowd like a falcon, and he nodded in satisfaction when he saw that all the pirates on the island were lined up: "Strengthen your guard, and don't relax at all."

"Yes."

After he finished deploying, the one-eyed dragon who was standing beside him immediately stepped forward to report: "Your Majesty, Miss is safe and sound."

He nodded, turned around and walked towards his "palace".

Standing under the coconut tree at the door, Hua Rong heard a rush of footsteps, and her heart jumped with fright. She already knew that not only did King Qin not grab any women or property this time, but he lost his troops and generals. Dare to imagine how he would vent this black air on himself.

The coconut tree couldn't hide, but she subconsciously tried to stick behind it, hoping to hide for a second.

However, soon his voice sounded, he almost ran over and hugged her: "Girl..."

He was covered in blood, but his attitude was not vicious, and his voice was even a little strange, as if reunited after a long absence.Hua Rong was so hugged that he couldn't breathe, and after struggling a few times, he let her go slowly.

There was already a large bucket of clear water beside him, King Qin took off his coat in two or three strokes, and began to wash his body.

He didn't care about the water dripping on the wound.Hua Rong saw such a deep arrow wound on his back, if it wasn't properly bandaged, it would fester very quickly in this weather.

After washing his body, he sat down on the chair, took out a bottle of ointment, and applied it to his shoulders with his backhand.After applying it a few times, it was very uncomfortable, and he suddenly said, "Girl, come and help me."

Hua Rong didn't dare to refuse, so he walked over slowly, picked up the ointment and applied it on him, then put down the bottle and stood aside.

"Girl, why are you standing there in a daze? Wrap this up for me too..." He whimpered, motioning for her to wrap up the roll of cloth in front of him.

Hua Rong slowly bandaged his wound.

Her slender hands followed the cloth strips, going around his back over and over again, and finally, it was wrapped.King Qin's face was so gloomy that it seemed as if water would drip out: "This time the soldiers were lost, and there are only a dozen or so brothers left in No. [-]. I was lucky enough to escape..."

She tentatively said, "Won't the enemy come after me?"

"This island is easy to defend and difficult to attack, so it's not afraid at all."

Hua Rong remembered his promise to drive her away, but at this moment, how dare she ask more questions?Take a few steps back and stand as far away from him as possible, for fear of suffering disaster.

A pirate brought food and wine, King Qin didn't even drink the wine, he just ate, seeing that Hua Rong didn't move, he picked up a piece of meat for her, and said loudly: "Girl, hurry up and eat."
