"Uncle Jinyi, are you still breastfeeding?" Qi Xiudi, who was sitting next to Yan Nansheng, blinked his innocent and harmless eyes and said something that made people spurt blood. Seeing Han Jinyi's face turned red.
, Yan Nansheng's mood immediately improved, and her discomfort was reduced a lot.
"Han Jinyi, are you sure we will be treated politely when we arrive at Penglai Island?" Yan Nansheng has been struggling with this issue. He is not unfamiliar with the three words Shuiqianmo, but has never met her. He only knows that she is the overlord of the sea.
, the pirate who rules all the seas as far as she knows, what a female man!
"Not sure." Han Jinyi's answer was very sad.
"I'm not sure why you should take Xiudi with you?" After getting along for a few days, the relationship between Yan Nansheng and Qi Xiudi improved by leaps and bounds, even making Han Jinyi a little jealous.
"Just because you and I are not popular, it doesn't mean Xiu Di is the same. It is said that Shui Qianmo likes children very much. Our Xiu Di is so cute, so there is no reason for her not to like it." Han Jinyi explained.
"Tch! Your flute player? This is the son of our alliance leader!" Yan Nansheng hugged Qi Xiu's flute in his arms and wanted to kiss him as he spoke.
"But Xiudi has a godfather... Haha..." Qi Xiudi couldn't stop laughing after being tickled by Yan Nansheng.
"Then I will be your biological father!" Yan Nansheng didn't care about Han Jinyi's jealousy, and immediately got into trouble with Qi Xiudi. After almost an hour, Han Jinyi and the others finally saw their destination, and suddenly appeared in front of them.
An island, lush and green, seems to be surrounded by auspicious clouds, it is indescribably beautiful.
However, just as they were excited, they saw three speedboats approaching them, and within a moment they surrounded Han Jinyi's boat in the center.
"Who are you? Tell me your name!" A burly man on the boat looked down at Han Jinyi and asked sternly.
"I'm Han Jinyi from Wanhuang City. I'm here to pay a visit to the Master of Water Island." Han Jinyi raised his hands to the man on the boat, his voice was clear and hearty, and his face was unparalleled.
After hearing the sound, the man did not respond, but turned around and left. After about a stick of incense, the man appeared again.
"Lord Han, please!" So under the guidance of three large boats, Han Jinyi and others finally set foot on Penglai Island. Although it is an island, the area of the island is almost half the size of Loulan, and there are plants everywhere.
There are broad-leafed trees and flowers on both sides of the jade-paved road. When the wind blows, waves of fragrance linger in your nose, making you feel relaxed and happy.
"Uncle Jinyi, this place is so beautiful, even more beautiful than Yan Chi Country..." Qi Xiu Di looked at the surrounding scenery with forgetfulness. He made a mistake and spat out the words Yan Chi Country. He realized that he had said the wrong thing.
, Qi Xiudi immediately covered his mouth, Han Jinyi and Yan Nansheng looked at each other, pretending not to hear anything.
A magnificent palace rises from the ground in front of you. It is made of gold and stone, rimmed with colored glaze, and decorated with emerald pearls. It makes the whole palace extremely luxurious. On the front of the palace, a huge plaque reads the word "Phoenix Palace".
As Han Jinyi and the others walked into Feng Palace, the decoration inside made them even more stunned. As the owner of Wanhuang City, Han Jinyi felt that he was a poor man for the first time.
"Uncle Jinyi, it's so flashy here!" Qi Xiudi is just a child after all, and he doesn't have a strong concept of gold, silver and jewelry. He only thinks that the colors here are very beautiful.
At this moment, a burst of laughter came from the main hall. The sounds were mixed, including women's voices and more children's laughter. Han Jinyi and Yan Nansheng held Qi Xiu Di's little hand almost at the same time,
I was beating drums in my heart. At this moment, someone had entered the main palace. After a while, the main palace door opened wide, and a maid in light green palace clothes walked up to Han Jinyi.
"Island Master invites you to come in." The maid's voice was very sweet, but her eyes looking at Qi Xiu Di showed unabashed greed. Yes, it was greed!
Seeing this, Han Jinyi immediately strode into the palace while holding the Qixiu flute. As soon as they entered the palace, Han Jinyi and Yan Nansheng were dumbfounded. They saw that the huge palace was filled with children's toys, and most of them were on the left side.
There are some sandalwood swords, guns, swords and halberds, axes, hooks and forks, as well as wooden war horses, chariots, etc. Most of the people surrounding them are little boys of seven or eight years old. On the right are some knitted embroidery, rouge and gouache, which are naturally surrounded by
with a group of little girls.
In the center of the main hall, on a phoenix chair carved from warm jade, a woman sat there with a happy expression. Her pink porcelain skin was as crystal clear as jade, her long and narrow phoenix eyes were unparalleled in beauty, her clothes were luxurious but not cumbersome, simple yet luxurious.
The woman's waterfall-like long hair is tied up with a purple hairpin, and two messy strands fall down on both sides of her cheeks, which further highlights the woman's charming charm.
At this moment, the narrow phoenix eyes were slightly narrowed, and the slender fingertips were gently tapping the warm jade armrest. Even though the hall was noisy, Han Jinyi could still hear the sound of the woman sitting on the seat tapping the armrest, one after another.
It's confusing.
"Children, you go out to play with Aunt Ziluo first. Mom will accompany you later!" Qingyue's voice was as gentle as squeezing out water. When Shui Qianmo looked at the children, his eyes suddenly filled with brilliance.
As soon as those children left, the main hall suddenly became clear.
"Wanhuang City Han Jinyi pays homage to the island owner!" Han Jinyi stepped forward first and bowed his hands in salute.
"Fengyu Villa Yan Nansheng pays homage to the island owner!" Yan Nansheng also stepped forward respectfully. Now on his territory, the two of them must show due etiquette. However, Shui Qianmo didn't seem to see the two of them when he was sitting in the seat, and stood up alone.
, walked towards Qi Xiudi.
"Island owner?" Seeing Shui Qianmo looking at Qi Xiudi with possessive eyes, Han Jinyi immediately regretted it. He only said that Shui Qianmo liked children, but he didn't know that he liked children so much!
"Shhh-" Shui Qianmo put her shiny fingers to her lips, signaling Han Jinyi to be silent and turned to look at Qi Xiu Di.
"Baby, what's your name and how old are you?" Shui Qianmo slowly squatted in front of Qi Xiudi. His green jade fingers wanted to touch Qi Xiudi's cheek, but Qi Xiudi avoided him.
"Uncle Jinyi..." Qi Xiudi was a little confused and couldn't help but lean towards Han Jinyi.
"Island owner, this child's name is Qi Xiudi, he is eight years old." Han Jinyi responded very gently.
"I'm not telling you to be quiet! You're such an adult, can't you understand the meaning of my island master's gesture? It's not that my island master can't tolerate fools, but you can't be too stupid, right?" Shui Qianmo's voice was not loud, but
Every sentence was lethal, especially the disgust in her eyes, which made Han Jinyi feel ashamed for the first time.
"You are not allowed to bully Uncle Jinyi..." Qi Xiudi stood up immediately when he saw Shui Qianmo scolding Han Jinyi like this.
"Xiu Di, be good. My aunt is not bullying your uncle. She is just teaching him the most basic manners. Xiu Di, do you like it here? My aunt will play with you?" Shui Qianmo pulled Qi Xiu's flute with a warm look on his face.
She liked this child, she loved it from the first moment she saw it!
"But..." Qi Xiu was willing to play the flute, and looked at Han Jinyi with his eyes asking for instructions.
"Ye Zi, greet these two! Xiu Di, the adults have serious business to talk about. Let's go, Auntie will play with you!" Shui Qianmo ignored Han Jinyi and Yan Nansheng's silent refusal and walked out of the main hall with Qi Xiu Di.
.
"Hey! Where do you want to take Xiu Di?" Yan Nansheng couldn't help but wanted to catch up, but suddenly, a black figure suddenly blocked his way.
"The rules of Penglai Island are that a child can only change one wish. Although there are two of you here, you can only make one condition!" The woman named Ye Zi looked at Yan Nansheng and Han Jinyi with a cold face.
"Change? What do you mean?" Han Jinyi frowned slightly and looked suspiciously at Ye Zi, who was wearing night clothes. Judging from the person's appearance, the person in front of him must be the hidden guard of Shui Qianmo.
"If you don't know what it means, why would you bring a boy here? Lucky for you, the island owner likes this boy very much. Tell me your conditions!" Ye Zi urged, not wanting to talk nonsense.
"Jinyi came to the island owner this time to inquire about a place. As for the flute repairer, we want to take him away!" Han Jinyi heard what Ye Zi meant and immediately expressed his thoughts.
"Take away? None of the children the island owner likes can be taken away. Where do you want to ask?" Ye Zi said decisively.
"You can't ask! If you ask Xiu Di, you can't take it with you!" On one side, Yan Nansheng immediately stopped Han Jinyi.
"Even if you don't ask, I can't take that little boy away! Just think about it and call me out when you think about it!" Ye Zi dodged impatiently and disappeared in front of Han Jinyi.
Looking at the empty hall, Yan Nansheng and Han Jinyi felt unprecedentedly helpless.
"What should we do now?" Yan Nansheng looked at Han Jinyi with a sad face.
"Go find Xiu Di and leave! You really can't stay in this place for a second longer!" Han Jinyi immediately turned around and walked out of the hall, and Yan Nansheng followed him out.
After almost ten days, Yin Xiong finally sent Yao Mowan and the others to Liangyuan County. Along the way, Qi Canglan never spoke to Yao Mowan again. Yao Mowan knew that Qi Canglan was disappointed with her, and she also knew that Qi Canglan was disappointed with her.
It was because Canglan was worried about herself that she knew she was outmatched in martial arts and still wanted to catch up. She understood Qi Canglan's kindness and was grateful for it, but that was all. Now that she knew her identity, everything she did was destined to be...
Contrary to Qi Canglan's thoughts, she is Yao Mowan. This is a fact that cannot be changed.
Speaking of Liangyuan County, Yao Mowan did not see Ye Junqing as expected, but what she got was the news that Ye Junqing had led the navy to leave Liangyuan County and go straight to Zihai.
"Ben Lei, this is the secret note from His Highness the Crown Prince. Since King Chu is not here, I will leave it to you!" Yin Xiong handed the letter from Chu Mobei to Ben Lei. Behind him, Yao Mowan and Qi Canglan,
Mei Ji and Mei Ji were pushed into the main hall together.
"Hostage? But the emperor has already gone on an expedition! We are almost at the Zihai Pier now!" Ben Lei roughly understood Chu Mobei's intention and spoke worriedly. At that time, Yao Mowan sent Ben Lei to chase Qi Xiu Di, and then
It was expected that Ben Lei would go to Ye Junqing, but in fact this was also her original intention.
"The hostage doesn't have to be inseparable from the King of Chu, right?" Yin Xiong thought so.
"If you don't follow, who can believe it! Ben Lei, you'd better send me there before Ye Junqing goes to sea, otherwise you will have to bear the consequences." Yao Mowan was so worried that she didn't care about Qi Canglan's presence.
"That's alright, Ben Lei will make arrangements right now, but..." Ben Lei looked at Qi Canglan with deep meaning.
"We have sealed his acupuncture points, so there will be no accidents." Yin Xiong explained.
"Come, come here, escort Qi Canglan and Mei Ji down, prepare your horses immediately, I am the vanguard to leave the city!" Ben Lei ordered immediately.
"Bring Canglan with you, Ye Junqing will have more hope of life." Qi Canglan, who had not spoken for a long time, finally spoke. Yao Mowan did not expect Qi Canglan to say such words, and suddenly looked back to meet him.
Qi Canglan's eyes are indistinguishable from light to dark.
Ben Lei and Yin Xiong looked at each other and felt that what Qi Canglan said was very reasonable, so he simply took all three of them and headed towards Zihai with Yin Xiong.
