The fire grew in the wind and engulfed the battleship's deck.

Jiang Wanyue had no ability to escape and fell in the flames.

Zheng Qin held on to Jiang Wanyue tightly, blood dyed Jiang Wanyue's clothes red and flowed on the deck, while Jiang Wanyue hugged her mother Lu Fangqin tightly.

Jiang Wanyue's eyes were red, and her voice was shrill: "Mother, don't abandon me!"

Lu Fangqin's heart sank as if it was filled with iron and lead when she saw that Jiang Wanyue could not escape. She had no intention of running away in the first place and would accompany her daughter through life and death.

But staying on his own initiative and being dragged by Jiang Wanyue to go to hell with her are two different things, although the results are the same!

The daughter she had raised so carefully, at the critical moment of life and death, did not let her run away, but dragged her to die together. This is so chilling!

Lu Fangqin's eyes flashed with deep disappointment: "Wanyue, how could you do this?"

"If you hadn't instigated me to go against Jiang Lili since I was a child, how could I be like this now?"

Jiang Wanyue's intact arm tightly pinched Lu Fangqin's arm: "If I really wanted to be her sister, I would have become a phoenix by now!"

She looked more and more crazy: "If you hadn't been shameless and hooked up with a married man and married into the Jiang family as a second wife, we would be living a good life as the mistress and eldest daughter of a wealthy family now!"

"It's all your and Jiang Zhoulin's fault for being too selfish and shameless!"

"Snapped--"

Lu Fangqin could no longer bear it after hearing this, and slapped Jiang Wanyue in the face: "Wanyue, how can you say such a thing? Have I ever treated you unfairly over the years?"

"I did all this for you. I am just a concubine's daughter. I married into the official residence of the Minister of Personnel, so that my mother's family would look up to me and value me."

"If I hadn't taken good care of you, how could you have been so successful in the capital and met the noble ladies from various families? What if you were the eldest daughter of a small family? The noble ladies in the capital wouldn't bother to pay attention to you."

Jiang Wanyue covered the slap marks on her face and roared, "Those are all things of the past. What's the point of talking about them now? It's all your fault!"

At this time, Wen Qiao's navy on the sea was very close to them and surrounded the Haining navy. Those who jumped into the sea to escape had nowhere to escape.

In the air distorted by burning, Jiang Wanyue saw a woman in blue standing at the bow of the ship. Behind her, warships were like a forest, with flags fluttering, covering the sky and the sun.

The waves surged under her feet, but seemed to submit to her power and did not dare to be the least bit presumptuous.

She held a spear in her hand, the tip of the spear flashing coldly, reflecting her stern face.

Wen Qiao's voice was clear and powerful, penetrating the waves and spreading across the entire sea area: "Jiang Wanyue, Jiang Lili sent me to take you back!"

Before he finished speaking, the war drums roared to the sky, and a hundred thousand naval forces responded in unison. The sound was like thunder, shaking the whole world.

"Jiang Lili, what right do you have to..."

Which kind of support does Jiang Lili have?

Jiang Wanyue looked at the majestic navy, with deep resentment in her big eyes.

Jiang Wanyue and her son had been engulfed by flames, their faces twisted in pain from the burns, and Zheng Qin and Emperor Qingning were already dead.

The raging flames enveloped the bodies of the four people, and there was a dead silence on the deck...

*

New Year’s Eve five years later.

The weather in Beijing was cold in late winter, so everyone discussed and decided to hold the reunion at the old place, the south bank of Haizhou Island.

The south coast of Haizhou Island no longer needs to be disguised like it was five years ago. It has been connected to electricity and has been transformed into an original ecological resort. While retaining the island style, it is equipped with all kinds of facilities.

As dusk fell, nine-and-a-half-year-old Master Liao sat on a swing on the beach, waiting for dinner. He looked at the three little kids who were shorter than him with worry.

The children of Jiang Lili's family and Yan Chaoyue's family can walk and talk, but I am not even ten years old!

Urgent, urgent, urgent!

Why hasn’t he grown into a 1.9-meter-tall, tall and handsome man like Xin Che? Why does he have to wait for another six or eight years?

Right now everyone is drinking and chatting, but he is the only one who can't drink. He is also being pestered by these three little brats to play with him. Alas, what should he do if he is too young to welcome these little brats?

Jiang Lili's twin brother and sister, brother Xin Haiyan and sister Jiang Heqin, are now four and a half years old. Yan Chaoyue's Yan Song is three years old, and there is not much age difference between them and Master Liao.

The three little ones were building castles on the beach. Jiang Heqin patted the sand on his hands. He was a little tired of building castles and glanced at Master Liao on the swing.

She stood up, lifted up the hem of her skirt and ran to Master Liao. Her fair and rosy face had two dimples due to excitement. She was simply a smaller version of Jiang Lili.

Jiang Heqin grabbed Master Liao's clothes with his little hands: "Brother Dabao, help me get on the swing, I want to play too~"

Master Liao cruelly pulled her little paws away: "I've told you more than ten times, I'm your uncle, don't mess up the generations!"

He poked the two little birds on Jiang Heqin's hands with his fingers as if punishing her, making Jiang Heqin's flower buds as messy as two bird nests.

"You called the wrong name this time. I will not agree to your request."

Jiang Heqin quickly protected the little chirp on his head: "How can it be more than ten times? I counted only four times."

"And you don't look much older than us."

Master Liao crossed his arms, pretending to be angry and ignored her.

Jiang Heqin was not discouraged. She rolled her fox-like, bright black grape eyes and said, "If you don't take me to play, I will tell my parents that you secretly drank a glass of daughter's red wine after lunch today."

"Oh my, a four-and-a-half-year-old kid is threatening people?"

Master Liao scratched his head in pain. This little girl is just as smart as Jiang Lili.

Not far away, Xin Haiyan, who was drawing on the beach with a branch, resembled Xin Che, with deep and heroic features. Although he still looked childish, he already had the calm and composed look of a little adult.

The big iceberg gave birth to a small ice cube. It is not fun at all. If you tease him, he will talk to you seriously. If reasoning doesn't work, he will use martial arts. His little punches can hurt a lot.

Master Liao curled his lips and turned his gaze back to the little pink ball in front of him who was not giving in: "Okay, okay, I'll carry you up."

Jiang Heqin got what he wanted. He happily swung his short legs on the swing and said to Xin Haiyan, "Brother, I want to sit on the swing! Come and push the swing."

Xin Haiyan and Yan Song on the beach castle turned their heads at the same time. Xin Haiyan put down the branch in his hand and walked towards the swing.

Yan Song, the little boy from Yan Chaoyue's family, was like a little follower. When he saw Xin Haiyan stand up, he immediately stood up and followed behind his elder brother.

The two children walked one after the other. Xin Haiyan was like a little ice cube with steady steps, while Yan Song had a timid gait. He was not very familiar with Master Liao, a nine-year-old older brother. He was a little scared, but also a little looking forward to interacting with this older brother. It was said that this older brother was the king of Nanzhao Kingdom at the age of nine!
