The concubine was reborn, and the cold prince was made red in the face

"One of them? Who else wants to harm me?" Zuo Xiangning opened her mouth in surprise.

When did she have so many enemies?

"Don't worry, as long as I'm here, I won't let others hurt you." The masked man looked at her and said.

"What about when we get to the capital? Where are you going to place me?" Zuo Xiangning now sadly discovered that there was no place for her to stay in the capital that she had longed for.

She had no way of returning to Zuofu openly. Now if someone wants to kill her, she can't go back. What if her family is harmed?

As for the small courtyard and other courtyards, they are not safe either.

"Who are you? Are you also from Wufutang? Are you one of the four helmsmen?" Zuo Xiangning suddenly had an even more outrageous idea in her mind, "Ling Xiao didn't entrust me to you, right? "

"If so, would you like it?" the masked man asked.

"I don't want to!" Zuo Xiangning's face turned pale instantly, but she didn't expect that she would guess right.

She said angrily with an ugly face: "What right does he have to decide my life? Whether I need someone to take care of me, and who will take care of me, I have the final say, others can't make the decision for me!"

Zuo Xiangning ran back to the room, squatted on the ground leaning against the door, covered her face and cried.

Ling Xiao always thinks about her in everything, how sad must he feel when he asks other men to take care of him?

It hurt her to think about it.

But doesn't he know? How could she really accept the man he arranged?

Who does he think she is?

The man wearing a mask stood outside the door with his hands behind his back, listening to the sobbing of the woman in the room, his palms clenched into fists.

Was she crying because she thought of Ling Xiao, or was she crying because she was dissatisfied with Ling Xiao's arrangement?

But no matter which reason it is, one thing is for sure, that is, she doesn't like herself now.

The man looked at the mist-shrouded river. The boat was rocking gently and the sound of the waves seemed to be telling some unknown secret.

Suddenly, a strange sound came, and then several men dressed in black and holding swords appeared on the bow.

The masked man waved his hand to the guard, and dozens of people rushed out from the stern of the ship. Swords and swords flashed, and flesh and blood flew everywhere. After a quarter of an hour, calm was restored again.

"Tell everyone to be careful, there may be a second wave." Ling Xiao stayed outside the cabin door and did not move. "Tell everyone on the shore to be careful too, and tell them that anyone who blocks the way will be killed without mercy!"

The guard whispered and left quickly.

The door behind the man was opened. The man turned around and saw the woman standing at the door with a pale face, looking at him.

"The person who killed me is here again?" Her voice was trembling and weak, as if a breeze could blow it away.

"It's just a few thieves who saw the size of our ship and wanted to rob it at night." The man comforted her and said, "I'll have someone bring you hot water. You can take a hot bath before going to bed."

Zuo Xiangning didn't believe what he said at all.

She heard clearly in the room just now that both sides were fighting directly without saying a word, just like the last time they came to kill her.

What's more, she heard what he said to the guard.

Only then did she completely believe what he said.

She pursed her lips and asked carefully, "Are your people injured?"

"Two people were slightly injured." The man raised his hand to touch her hair, but hesitated and patted her shoulder, "You stay in the room, I'll have someone prepare hot water for you." water."

Zuo Xiangning didn't want to cause any more trouble to him, "Don't be so troublesome. Let everyone go to bed early."

"It's already been prepared." The man looked towards the stern of the boat with a smile, and two guards immediately came over with hot water.

The two girls brought the bathtub over and poured hot water into it while saying: "These things were bought by the young master, and we repainted them twice." "Thank you for your hard work." Zuo Xiangning Thank you politely.

These people were risking their lives by taking this trip with her.

"These are what we slaves should do." The two girls helped Zuo Xiangning finish her bath and changed into pink and white clothes.

After the two girls cleaned up the room, Zuo Xiangning asked them to leave.

She sat in front of the mirror and wiped her wet hair.

When she saw the man coming in with a food box in the mirror, she turned to look at him and said, "No matter what Ling Xiao told you, I can never have anything to do with you."

"It's up to you." The man sat down at the table calmly, "Come here and eat."

Zuo Xiangning sat at the table and said again, "I can see that you are a good person, and you have been helpful to me. I don't want to lie to you, let alone hurt you, so let's talk ugly first, I I have feelings for Ling Xiao, but I won’t let him dictate the rest of my life.”

"Yes, I understand." The man nodded and handed the chopsticks to her hand.

He stood up and asked for two more braziers to be brought over. "The humidity on the ship is too heavy. Lighting a brazier will make you more comfortable."

After dinner, the man took Zuo Xiangning for a walk around the boat.

He pointed to the seven brightest stars in the night sky, "Do you think they look like a bucket for scooping wine?"

"Are they the Big Dipper?" Zuo Xiangning raised her head and asked.

"When the bucket handle points to the east, it is spring all over the world; when the bucket handle points to the west, it is summer all over the world; when the bucket handle points to the west, it is autumn all over the world; when the bucket handle points to the north, it is winter everywhere."

"What do you mean?" Zuo Xiangning asked in confusion.

The man smiled and said: "The direction of the bucket handle in spring is east, in summer the direction of the bucket handle is south, in autumn..."

"Autumn refers to the west, and winter refers to the north." Zuo Xiangning said first.

"So smart." The man praised with a smile.

Zuo Xiangning also pursed her lips and smiled softly.

"It's too late, go back to your room and go to bed early." The man looked at someone outside on the shore and said to Zuo Xiangning.

"Okay." Zuo Xiangning went back to the room obediently. She knew that something was probably going to happen again.

Otherwise, the man wouldn't be able to drive him back to his room.

She lay on the bed, and not long after, she heard the sound of fighting coming from outside again.

She hurriedly got up from the bed, opened the window a crack, and looked out the window.

"Don't come out." The masked man's voice came from outside, the window was closed from the outside, and then a figure flashed in from the door, "Go to the bed and lie down."

The bed is in the corner of the room and is the safest place.

"Who is it this time?" Zuo Xiangning asked worriedly.

"No matter who it is, don't even think about leaving alive." The man said calmly: "I want to see how many of them there are."

"You tell me who they are, so I can know their reasons." Zuo Xiangning said: "Only when we find the reason can we find a way to fundamentally solve the matter. Otherwise, we will do this every day except for avoiding. Fighting hard, when will it end?"
