Taking the initiative to remarry! The crazy prince is obsessed with me
Chapter 22 These are the pirates who can take his life
Shen Xiyue waited for a while and Murong Xuan came back.
The ship started moving and was moving forward at full speed again.
There was no expression on his handsome face, but there was a clear coldness in his phoenix eyes, and it was obvious that he was in a very bad mood.
Seeing Shen Xiyue, he called her in a hoarse voice: "Come here."
"......" Shen Xiyue really wanted to refuse.
But she also felt that Murong Xuan was so particularly terrifying that she really didn't dare... and yet there was some pity in his terrifyingness.
In the end, I was really worried that he would get angry and throw himself into the river, so I finally put down the book in my hand and walked towards him.
Frost Leaf tactfully retreated and closed the door behind him.
Murong Xuan hugged her tightly in his arms.
Her body was very soft. She had just felt sleepy while reading, so she took some mint to wake her up. Now her body had a pleasant, cool smell. When he hugged her, Murong Xuan felt that his mind was clearer.
Murong Xuan sat down on the soft couch next to him.
She sat in his arms, feeling the warm body temperature of the man. Shen Xiyue shuddered slightly. This was the first time they had been so intimate since their wedding night.
Shen Xiyue's mind was in a mess. She vaguely recalled the fear and panic of that night, and how he held her in his arms, broke out of the window, and saved her from the fire.
Murong Xuan put his arm around her waist and buried his head in the crook of her neck, his slightly tired breath falling on her collarbone: "Why do you smell so good? Huh?"
As he spoke, he lifted a strand of hair and sniffed it.
Shen Xiyue just felt itchy all over, and misunderstood his words. She stammered, "Your Highness...if you don't like the mint flavor, I won't use it again in the future."
Murong Xuan curled the corners of his lips, paused, and even his chest vibrated, and he actually laughed out loud.
He let go of her hair and stroked her cheek with his fingers again, feeling the tenderness and softness on his fingertips, and said, "This tastes very good."
Shen Xiyue suppressed her shyness and wondered what was wrong with him.
......He clearly said before that he had no interest in her, but now he is hugging her and saying such ambiguous words.
Murong Xuan said in a low voice: "There are a lot of fresh ingredients on the ship. What would you like to eat for dinner?"
Shen Xiyue didn't have the heart to think about what to eat, so she said casually: ".....anything is fine."
Murong Xuan tilted his head, his lips almost touching her earlobe: "Tell me, what do you want to eat?"
Shen Xiyue felt that he was abnormal today. She bit her lower lip and said casually, "...I want to eat hot pot."
It is not autumn yet, but the river is already a little chilly. Eating some hot hot pot is one of the greatest enjoyments in life.
When she was in Xinjiang, her favorite thing was to sit around with her parents, talking and eating hot pot with her favorite ingredients. Her father would tell her about many things that happened during the war, and she and her mother would listen with great interest.
The copper hot pot was served quickly, and there was even lamb on it.
The chef's skills are also good. Each slice of mutton is cut into even thickness. Once the water is boiled, the slices of meat change from blood red to the light color of cooked meat. Then dip it in the special dipping sauce, and the aroma penetrates your nose.
Shen Xiyue took a bite of the meat, and the meat with a slight milky aroma spread in her mouth. Murong Xuan then served her a bowl of mutton soup. The soup was stewed with bones. It was delicious when eaten with the meat, and it was also delicious when drunk alone.
Her nose felt sore from eating so much. Although it was not as delicious as the mutton from Xinjiang, she was already very satisfied to be able to eat this kind of food on the boat.
Shen Xiyue: "It's delicious."
Murong Xuan reached out and wiped off the oil stains on Shen Xiyue's lips, and said gently: "Then eat more."
Shen Xiyue paused and asked cautiously: "Your Highness, has something happened?"
She had never seen Murong Xuan like this.
In the memory of the previous life, Murong Xuan always looked gentle and kind. Even when something like that happened and he was deposed as the crown prince, he always appeared weak and harmless in front of others.
But since her rebirth, perhaps because she was closer to him, she felt that what he showed was completely different.
He didn't seem to be that weak, and his gentle appearance revealed a cold and cruel temperament.
Even when she forced him to go to the south of the Yangtze River with her, saying that she wanted him to be responsible for her, he was still suspicious and his attitude was hot and cold, making her completely unpredictable.
So... at this moment, he even made her suspect that after she finished eating this mutton hotpot, he would throw her into the river to feed the fish.
Murong Xuan reached out and touched her hair, and said, "It's nothing, it's just that today's shabu-shabu mutton meal may not be available for the next meal."
Before he could finish his words, the boat began to shake.
Then, the guard on the boat shouted, "Oh no! The pirates are coming!"
The meat that Shen Xiyue had just picked up with her chopsticks fell onto the table, making her very sad.
She threw down her chopsticks and rushed out to take a look. On the water, there were large ships coming towards them, like ghosts suddenly appearing in the dark night, which made people feel nervous.
Seeing the pirates' boat getting closer and closer, Shen Xiyue frowned. It turned out that what he meant by "maybe there's no food to eat" was actually this!
Murong Xuan said: "The matter of transporting grain to Tongzhou should have been known to others. Fortunately, these pirates came here for me. This means that the grain is still safe and will not affect the disaster in Jiangnan."
Shen Xiyue breathed a sigh of relief.
The dozens of pirate ships were getting closer and closer, and Murong Xuan's indifferent phoenix eyes were filled with the bloodthirsty interest of wild beasts.
These are not ordinary bandits; these are bandits who can take the life of him, the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace.
Even Qi Weihuai is King Yao's man.
The leader of the guards on the ship immediately stood up and shouted at the pirates: "Listen, people on the other side, this is an official ship of the imperial court, you will not be allowed to act so recklessly, why don't you retreat immediately!"
In response to him, a crossbow arrow shot from the pirate boat hit him directly at his feet, a complete provocation.
The guard leader was furious. He immediately took out the fireworks he used for warning. With a "bang", he lit up half the night sky and shouted, "Fight back!"
Countless rockets dipped in scented oil were fired from the pirates' boats, forming a rain of rockets that covered the sky.
The silk hanging on the boat caught fire as soon as it came into contact with the fire. The guards quickly pulled down the burning silk and threw it into the cold and fast-flowing river.
The guards on the ship were busy and confused, and the pirates' ship over there brought out catapults. After lighting the stones wrapped in oilcloth, they threw them at the ship with a clear target.
In an instant, the entire ship was shaken by the impact.
