Yun Shang listened silently for a long time and finally understood a little bit.

Yu Ruyi, the owner of Ruyi Fang, is a registered and known time traveler, while these men in black are hidden time travelers.

Moreover, there are conflicts between the two groups.

But Yu Ruyi obviously couldn't save her, so she still had to rely on herself to save herself.

After seeing the situation clearly, Yun Shang slowly spoke, "My dear warriors, my life is worthless. I don't know how many of you my prince has captured, but I know for sure that your plan to use me as a bargaining chip will not work."

"Since you know I'm the Princess of Qi, you should also know that I've only been married to the King of Qi for three or five days, less than half a month. Our love is only worth a few days, and I'm afraid it's not worth the lives of so many of you."

"Also, have you heard that I'm the fake daughter of the Prime Minister? My identity is fake, and I'm already a burden to the Prince of Qi in his fight for the throne. If you kill me, aren't you helping him?"

"Haha, you're pretending quite well." Suddenly, a man in black chuckled in the crowd, "Princess Qi, you're a time traveler too, right?"

Yun Shang's heart trembled, and she denied it, "I am the Princess of Qi, how could I be a time traveler?"

"Since you are not a time traveler, how can you answer the questions on the Ruyi Boat?"

It turned out to be because of the problem with boarding the ship during the day.

She felt relieved. "How is the man who was with me?"

"We're talking about you now, why do you care about others?" The man in black said impatiently.

Yun Shang said softly, "That man is my cousin, Lu Hongwen, but there is another person living in his body now, named Meng Tai."

"The answer to the question was told to me by Meng Tai."

The men in black looked at each other and turned to leave.

Yun Shang watched them go down the deck and into the cabin, and guessed that Meng Tai was probably thrown into the cabin.

Sure enough, a moment later, the man in black came back, and Meng Tai came with him.

As soon as Meng Tai arrived, he hurriedly pulled Yun Shang up from the ground and untied her rope, "Brothers, we can't make such a big deal."

"This is the Princess of Qi. If you kill her, even if the King of Qi doesn't like her, he will have to kill us all for the sake of his reputation. If you do something extreme, there will be no turning back."

"Well, I guarantee with my number Alpha 9080 that I will find a way to rescue the other brothers in the prison. Okay, don't worry."

"Everyone, don't worry. Being locked up in prison is actually safe. Zhao Qiyan hasn't killed anyone yet."

Yun Shang glared at him, "You actually lied to me, Princess. You clearly said your name was Meng Tai. I never thought you were the Alpha 9080 who escaped."

Yu Ruyi watched the infighting among the group with cold eyes. After Meng Tai untied the rope on Yun Shang, she suddenly grabbed Yun Shang and ran to the window.

The carved wooden window frame was not strong, and the two men bumped into it, with the man in black following closely behind.

Yu Ruyi only had time to ask her, "Can the princess swim?"

Before Yun Shang could reply, she pulled Yun Shang into the lake filled with lotus leaves.

On the shore, torches were connected together, and the flames looked like a long dragon.

The imperial guards surrounded the dock in an orderly manner.

Zhao Qiyan rode a chestnut horse and stood at the front.

The moment Yun Shang jumped into the water, she saw Zhao Qiyan raised his hand and said in a cold voice, "Shoot!"

In an instant, countless flaming arrows fell from the sky and hit the Ruyi Boat.

The luxurious pleasure boat was instantly engulfed in flames and reduced to ashes.

There were many small boats on the lake, and the imperial guards were also on board.

Not long after Yun Shang and Yu Ruyi went into the water, they were discovered by the imperial guards and sent back to the shore.

She couldn't swim and nearly drowned. She was sitting on the shore, coughing in a panic. Zhao Qiyan dismounted, draped his outer robe over her, squatted beside her, and patted her back to help her breathe. "Are you feeling better?"

Yun Shang finally realized what was happening, "Why is the prince in Qingzhou?"

Zhao Qiyan was silent. Yu Ruyi spoke first. She glanced at the outer robe Yun Shang was wearing, then turned away. "They are taking action tonight. I informed the prince, and he came with me from the capital."

"I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that I just happened to save the princess."

Yun Shang subconsciously felt that Yu Ruyi and Zhao Qiyan had an unusual relationship.

In this way, the incense called Ningshuang has an explanation.

Her eyes moved between Zhao Qiyan and Yu Ruyi for a few times before Zhao Qiyan spoke, "Thank you for saving the princess today. Besides what we agreed on before, if you want anything else, just ask."

Yu Ruyi let out a long sigh and hugged her wet arms tightly. "After what happened today, they must all know that I betrayed them. I need a shelter."

Zhao Qiyan helped Yun Shang stand up and walked towards the carriage prepared at the back. "Okay, I will make the arrangements."

Yu Ruyi caught up and said, "No matter how safe the shelter is, it is not as safe as Prince Qi's Mansion. I want to live in Prince Qi's Mansion."

Yun Shang looked over blankly. Yu Ruyi liked Zhao Qiyan, so what should she do?

Should she consider giving up her position?

Zhao Qiyan's expression remained unchanged. "Women who enter Prince Qi's mansion are either maids or concubines. If you want to choose between the two, I have no objection."

But no matter what, Yu Ruyi saved her life.

Yun Shang smiled gently, trying to portray herself as a broad-minded wife from a wealthy family. "Miss Ruyi's clothes are wet too. Hurry up and get in the carriage and change."

Seeing that both of them got on the carriage, Zhao Qiyan turned and left, continuing to search for the escaped man in black.

Yun Shang grabbed his sleeve and said, "Prince, cousin..."

Zhao Qiyan nodded, "If he's not dead, I'll spare his life."

It was exceptionally quiet in the carriage.

Yu Ruyi kept looking out the car window and didn't look at Yun Shang.

After a long while, she finally spoke, "You must find it very strange. How could a time-traveling woman like me be willing to be a concubine?"

Yun Shang nodded. "I heard that those women who traveled through time are all monogamous. They disdain to compete for favors, isn't that right?"

Yu Ruyi chuckled, "That's right."

"So, I will never be a concubine."

"I have talent and ability. If I want to do something, I will be his advisor."

"Lin Zhiwei, when I met Zhao Qiyan, you two weren't engaged yet. When I liked him, he hadn't even met you."

"We've been through thick and thin together, we've ridden horses together, and I like him, so I don't want to quit just like that."

"But you and him were married by your parents' arrangement, and I have no reason to force you to withdraw and give up the position of princess to me. So, for the sake of fairness, I am willing to give you a chance to fight."
