The Flirtatious Prince and His Savage Concubine

Lu Lingxi and the other two chatted while having lunch.

"Just now when we were on the high tower, the young lady was amazing. She was able to deal with a figure like the King of Qi with ease and without being servile or overbearing. I was so scared just now that I didn't dare to say a word." Liu Lu felt scared when she thought about the kick that the King of Qi had just given Chang Wei. She was afraid that he would vent his anger on Lu Lingxi and all three of them would suffer.

"Haha! It seems that letting you learn to read with Master Yan is a good decision. Liu Lu can use idioms easily now, hahaha!" The three of them have become best friends now. When there are no outsiders around, they will tease and have fun with each other and will never get angry.

"Miss!" Liu Lu said coquettishly, "I was praising you, why are you making fun of me instead." After saying that, she looked at Chunhong, hoping that she would help talk to Lu Lingxi.

Chunhong never participated in the bickering between the two. Although the three of them had become close friends, Chunhong was still cautious, self-disciplined and polite in front of Lu Lingxi.

"The young lady is now much more sensible and calm than before." Chunhong praised Lu Lingxi without hesitation.

"That's right! I've studied with Master Yan for several months, how can I not make any progress? Wouldn't that be a slap in the face of the master, saying that he is not a good teacher? As for the King of Qi, I think our values ​​are not in line with each other. I'll just have less contact with him in the future. There's no need to offend him." Lu Lingxi attributed his current transformation to Master Yan's good teaching. Chunhong and Liulu would not question anything, right?

"What does it mean that our world views are not in line with each other?" Liu Lu has always been the type of person who asks questions when she doesn't understand something. Every time Lu Lingxi says a new word, she will dig deep to get to the bottom of it.

"The three views refer to: outlook on life, values, and world view. The incompatibility of the three views means that the King of Qi and I cannot agree on these three aspects." Lu Lingxi explained succinctly.

"Miss, when did you discuss your outlook on life, values, and world view with the King of Qi? How do you know they are incompatible?" Liu Lu continued to ask.

Hey! Lu Lingxi couldn't help but roll his eyes. How to explain this? Maybe this is just a feeling. Why is this girl asking so much? She is not so meticulous in her work. "Do you want me to have the same values ​​as the King of Qi and marry him in the future? Do you want to see him kicking Chang Wei or Xiao Hua like he did today every day? It's okay, but I don't know how many kicks they can withstand?"

"Oh! Miss, please don't talk nonsense. I also watched them grow up day by day. I feel sorry for them. How could I hope that the King of Qi would kick them every day. Don't say it in front of them. What if they understand and take it seriously, and don't like me anymore in the future, I will cry to death. Don't look at them because they can't speak human language. These two little guys are very smart. I always feel that they understand everything." Liu Lu hurriedly looked at Chang Wei and Xiao Hua to confirm whether they heard what Lu Lingxi had just said. Lu Lingxi also took this opportunity to change the subject.

Chunhong was laughing secretly with her hands covering her mouth. Every time Lu Lingxi didn't want to answer Liu Lu's questions, she would change the subject like this. It worked every time and Liu Lu fell for it every time. I wonder what's wrong with her?

The doors and windows of the cabin were closed, and Lu Lingxi felt a little stuffy. He pushed open the window while talking, and a cool breeze blew in, which made him feel much more comfortable. The boat was rocking all the time, and Lu Lingxi was feeling dizzy after eating a full meal, so he was very sleepy. He went to take a nap on the soft couch, and soon Chunhong and Liulu also fell asleep on the table.

I don't know how long I slept, but the boat suddenly shook violently, and the boatman on the front deck shouted: "Master, it's bad, the boat seems to have hit something."

The old boatman at the stern walked from the aisle beside the cabin to the bow and knocked the boatman on the head. "I told you to watch from the front, but what were you doing? You should have seen it before it hit and avoided it. Now it has hit you. Why are you calling me? Why don't you go down and see what you hit?"

The boat shook violently when it hit something. Lu Lingxi and Chunhong had woken up. They heard the conversation between the two boatmen. Lu Lingxi quickly got up and went out to check, and Chunhong followed him.

As soon as the old boatman saw Lu Lingxi coming out, he came over to apologize: "I'm sorry for disturbing you, young lady. It's all because of that brat who didn't see the situation ahead clearly. He must have fallen asleep again."

"It's okay. I was just feeling sleepy. Everyone feels sleepy. It's no big deal. The important thing is, what's the situation now? Can the ship still move forward?" Lu Lingxi felt that it was pointless to blame anyone now. The important thing was whether the ship could still move forward.

"Oh! It's a person!" Suddenly the voice of the boatman came from the side of the boat.

"Who is he? Is he dead or alive? Pull him away quickly, so as not to scare the lady." The old boatman seemed to be accustomed to this kind of scene, and there was not much surprise or panic in his tone.

"Don't be afraid, miss. This is a common thing. Many people fall into the river every year. The current is fast, so most of them cannot be salvaged. Some float up by themselves after a while, and some sink to the bottom of the river forever. After sailing for a long time, you will always encounter one or two. Miss, please go back to the cabin quickly, so as not to pollute your eyes. I can't take the responsibility if you scare something. Wait until that brat pulls that thing away, and then we can continue going." After the old boatman scolded the small boatman, he immediately comforted Lu Lingxi, fearing that she would blame them for it.

Lu Lingxi was still a little scared of such things, and thought to himself: "I'd better not watch it. If I watch it, I might really have a nightmare at night."

Lu Lingxi turned around and was about to walk into the cabin when the boatman suddenly shouted again, "Master, this man is still breathing. He is not dead yet."

"Don't worry about it, just pull it away." The old boatman thought it was better to have less trouble than more. He didn't know how long the man had been in the water, and it was not certain that he could be saved if he was pulled out. It would be a waste of effort. It would be even more unlucky if he died on the boat.

When Lu Lingxi heard the boatman say the man was still alive, he turned around. Then he heard the old boatman say that he should leave him alone, which made him feel wrong. He said to the old boatman, "Since he is still alive, it is not good to leave him alone. You also go down and help pull him up to see if he can be saved. I will take care of anything that happens."

"Miss, this... I'm afraid it's not appropriate!" the old boatman said hesitantly.

"Go! If I don't save him today, I won't be able to rest in peace in the future, as if I had killed this life myself." Lu Lingxi insisted.

The old boatman said nothing more, turned around and worked together with the small boatman to pull the man out of the water, carried him to the soft couch in the cabin, and let him lie down.

The man was dressed in black, his face was pale, his hands were white and wrinkled from being soaked in water for a long time, and there was a broken arrow stuck in his left chest near his shoulder, which seemed to have missed his heart. He lay there motionless, with only the slight rise and fall of his chest, indicating that he was still alive.

After all the hassles here, Liu Lu finally woke up and saw a pale-faced person lying on the couch. She screamed in fear: "Ah~ There's a ghost!"

Chunhong quickly covered her mouth, "Be quiet! Look carefully, the man is still alive."

Liu Lu finally calmed down and asked quietly, "What's going on? How long have I slept and there's already a person like this on the boat?"

"Chunhong, is there any wine on this boat? This man's wound has been soaked in water and needs to be disinfected quickly." After observing the injuries of the man in black, Lu Lingxi said to Chunhong.

"I'll tell you about this in detail later. Let's get to work first." After Chunhong said this, she walked to Lu Lingxi and replied, "I don't have any white wine. I brought some realgar wine with me today to drive away snakes, insects, rats and ants."

"That's fine, just make do with it. Go get it, and get a knife." Conditions were limited at the moment, so they could only use whatever wine they had.

"Yes, I will prepare it right away!"
