Jiang Lili saw that just one sentence made the 1.9-meter-tall man in front of her look aggrieved like a dejected wolfhound. She hugged Xin Che's arm and climbed up the pole. With her other hand, she pinched Xin Che's chin and turned his face around: "I was just assuming, why did you take it seriously? Lord God of War's awkward look is actually quite cute."

Xin Che was so angry at Jiang Lili's teasing behavior that he laughed, then shook his head helplessly and chuckled: "You are always so naughty."

Jiang Lili leaned on his shoulder and said softly, "Actually, I feel at ease with you by my side. I'm just afraid that you'll worry too much and tire yourself out."

Xin Che gently held her in his arms, resting his chin on the top of her head, and said in a low and gentle voice: "As long as you are safe and sound, I won't feel tired."

Jiang Lili was sleeping in Xin Che's arms when the group message suddenly rang.

[@Su Rui (archaeologist who is not in love): Li Li, Zheng Qin and the Haining Navy plan to set off in two days. Jiang Wanyue and her daughter and the Queen Mother will soon arrive in Zhuwan. Now it depends on me and Wen Da to take action together. ]

【@江麗麗: Please! I’ll wait for you to come back for the New Year’s Eve dinner! 】

The night is dark and windy.

On the edge of the bay, Jiang Wanyue, her daughter and the Queen Mother boarded a small fishing boat.

"You nobles, if you want to go to Zhuwan, it's a very fast boat ride. You'll arrive in less than two hours."

Jiang Wanyue covered her face and looked at him from time to time: "You said that your brother is one of the leaders of Zheng Qin's men. Is it true?"

After the three of them came out of the mountains, Jiang Wanyue's arms and legs were disabled. After resting for half a month, she was barely able to set off. She asked in every place and finally arrived at Xuncheng after many twists and turns. The money she used for the journey all came from the jewelry on the empress dowager.

At first, the medical expenses for Jiang Wanyue's treatment and the doctor's consultation fees were all paid for with the jewelry on Jiang Wanyue and her daughter. However, Jiang Wanyue's injuries were too serious, and the valuables on the mother and daughter were soon pawned. The two then set their sights on the empress dowager, who had not spent a penny.

Jiang Wanyue had long guessed that the Queen Mother had hidden valuable jewelry on her body and was unwilling to take it out, so she could only use threats and inducements. If the Queen Mother did not take out some valuable things, then they would not be able to reach Zhuwan, and everyone would be doomed. Only then did the Queen Mother reluctantly take out some things.

Along the way, Jiang Wanyue and her daughter became increasingly unable to tolerate the Queen Mother's personality and behavior.

Later in the journey, they almost robbed the empress dowager of all the jewelry hidden on her body and exchanged them for money.

The ferocity of Jiang Wanyue and her daughter forced the empress dowager to restrain herself and pretend to be grateful.

The two sides are disgusted with each other only because their interests are tied together.

When they arrived at Xuncheng, Jiang Wanyue took the token given to her by Zheng Qin and asked around until she found out that Zheng Qin had already moved most of his elite troops to Zhuwan.

She spent a lot of money to find Zheng Qin's subordinates who stayed in Xuncheng and helped arrange to go to Zhuwan.

Jiang Wanyue cleared her throat and told the boatman: "Do your job well this time and don't play tricks. You will definitely get some benefits when we get to Zhuwan."

The boatman hurriedly said, "That's for sure. How dare I lie to Boss Zheng Qin's fiancée and future mother-in-law?"

Lu Fangqin was delighted to hear this, and felt proud. It was like a happy ending after all the hardship. During the days of escape, they had been desperate time and time again, but they had encountered hope time and time again, and finally they were here now!

The Queen Mother sat on the fishing boat, covering her nose with a handkerchief, and said nothing at this time.

After living in the capital for so many years, she was not used to anything along the coast, especially the salty sea breeze and the stench of fishing boats, which made her feel nauseous.

She kept thinking in her heart: Be patient a little longer, be patient a little longer... Soon she would be able to complain to her son. Jiang Wanyue and her daughter were really going too far!

After the boatman had prepared everything for sailing, he suddenly said to the three people in the boat, "Please wait for me on the boat for a while. I'm going to relieve myself. The boat will sail soon, and it will be inconvenient for a grown man like me to do that."

"I'll be back in an incense stick of time."

Jiang Wanyue waved her hand: "Go! Come back quickly, don't waste time."

It was a dark and windy night, and a thick layer of fog covered the sea, as if even the starlight had been swallowed up.

The small fishing boat swayed gently in the waves, making a creaking sound that made people feel uneasy in the quiet night.

Jiang Wanyue sat at the stern of the boat, gripping the side of the boat with both hands, her fingertips turning slightly white from the force.

Her eyes met with those of her mother, Lu Fangqin, and a hint of determination and coldness flashed in both of their eyes.

The Queen Mother was a little distracted as she sat by the boat. When she was young, she was very cautious and on guard in the palace, and she had been planning and guarding for most of her life. Now that she has experienced many setbacks and is getting older, it is inevitable that she will relax.

Looking at the dark sea at this moment, the Queen Mother had already begun to imagine how she would deal with these two bitches after arriving at Zhuwan.

Jiang Wanyue took a deep breath, looked at her mother, and they both stood up at the same time, moving quickly and silently.

They approached the Queen Mother from the left and right, exerted force with both hands, and tried to push her into the sea. The Queen Mother was caught off guard and her body suddenly leaned forward, but she held on to the edge of the boat at the last moment.

The veins on her fingers bulged from the force, and her nails almost dug into the wooden side of the boat.

"You... how dare you!" The Queen Mother gritted her teeth, her voice filled with incredible anger and fear.

Her eyes were like knives as she turned around and swept across Jiang Wanyue and Lu Fangqin's faces, as if she wanted to cut them into pieces.

Jiang Wanyue did not answer, but gritted her teeth and increased the force together with her mother.

The Queen Mother's body swayed on the edge of the boat. Her struggles became more and more intense, and a low roar came from her throat.

The waves hit the hull, and the splashing water soaked the clothes of the three people, making them bone-chilled.

"Press it!" Lu Fangqin shouted in a low voice, with unquestionable determination in her voice.

Jiang Wanyue nodded, and using the remaining arm she had left, she exerted all her strength to press down on the back of the empress dowager's head, pushing her head hard into the water.

The Queen Mother's body suddenly stiffened, and then she began to struggle violently.

She waved her hands around, trying to grab something, but could only grab the cold sea water.

A string of bubbles appeared on the water surface, accompanied by her dull choking cough.

The Queen Mother's memory flashed back before she died. All she could think of was the scene of her giving birth to a baby girl and asking the nanny beside her to drown the baby girl in a basin of water.

She just watched coldly at the time, thinking only of the glory and grace that would come after defeating her opponent.

The memories become more and more real.

Jiang Wanyue could feel the Queen Mother's strength gradually weakening, but her fingers were still tightly gripping the side of the boat.

"ended."

Lu Fangqin said in a low voice, with a slight tremor in her voice, but more of relief.

Jiang Wanyue closed her eyes, but the strength in her hands did not decrease at all.

They didn't let go of their hands until the Queen Mother's body completely collapsed and there was no movement at all.
