I want to be a good minister

Chapter 20

The edge of the sword trembled slightly, like a cold wind passing by, the sword trembled slightly like a man, but Cen Xi took a step back, even touching the man's cold robe, the blade did not follow.

Cen Xi breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't feel the ease of escaping from death, instead, he felt a little more sad.

"Your Highness, please follow me—" Cen Xi's tone was still flat, but he didn't intend to wait for the man. Cen Xi walked slowly to the fire, the fire was bright red, and Cen Xi picked up a piece of iron beside the fire, looked It looks like it was used to wrap the corner of a wooden boat, forming a triangular funnel shape. Cen Xi used this iron corner to fill a pot of sea water and put it on the fire to burn it.

The man looked slightly stunned, and followed subconsciously, because he wanted to hear the woman's explanation, maybe the explanation made sense, and he would remove the doubts in his heart, maybe, he was worrying too much about everything.

Cen Xi lifted up another piece of iron sheet. The edge of this piece of iron sheet was incomplete and the size of a shield. The woman tilted it and held it high above the fire. Drops of water, crystal clear, like morning dew, fell into the bamboo cup accurately following the woman's tilted angle.

Slowly, a layer of ripples appeared in the water glass.

When the man sounded in a trance, it seemed that the voice kept talking in his ear.

"Your Highness, you rest first, and the girls will light a fire later. They will definitely find it when they see the fire." How long did it take the woman to store so much water? How long does it take to let go.

The man took a step forward and reached out to take the iron sheet. Although he didn't say anything, he believed it.

"Your Highness, the wild fruit is not something from the mountains. It was randomly picked from a tree outside the pier, and there is no more." Cen Xi then confessed that Cen Xi's heart was cold, and even the daughter of the people did not want to call herself Yes, the wild fruit is there and I don't want to give it.

The man was silent, as if acquiescing.

"The matter of Sitian Academy, I will discuss with the old man, but whether you can stay in Sitian Pavilion depends on your ability to meet the requirements of the old man." The man said suddenly, Cen Xi paused, suddenly a little surprised Unable to believe her ears, the man in front of her in a daze changed into a different person. This was the first time that she, the aloof king, had said so many words, except of course when she doubted her.

"What does your Highness mean?" Cen Xi was taken aback, and suddenly realized that he agreed, and he agreed to the matter of Sitian Academy.

"Really?" Happiness came so suddenly that Cen Xi's heart trembled suddenly, and he grabbed the man's sleeve, his eyes were brighter than the stars in the sky.

"It's true." The man looked at the slightly stained little hand on his sleeve, the fingertips were slender and exquisite, and the next moment he moved his arm and broke away from the woman's hand.

Cen Xi was taken aback for a moment, and when he got excited, he forgot about the stalking of her family's lord, but it seemed that this excitement had nowhere to vent.

Cen Xi immediately took the iron sheet.

"Your Highness, your arm is still injured, come here, girl." Cen Xi said in a brisk voice, and snatched the iron sheet from the man's hand. A little brisk, but found that he had stared at the woman for too long, so he looked away.

"It's a student of Sitian Academy, let's call myself by name in the future." The man said suddenly.

Cen Xi was taken aback for a moment, yes, in Beichang, being able to enter Sitian Academy means that he is already a well-organized person, a member of the imperial court. Even princesses and ministers can call themselves names.

"Xi, I obey—" The black eyes concealed the glistening water, and the eyelashes fluttering like dragonflies leaked the woman's excitement. The sea breeze gradually picked up, but suddenly there was a loud sound coming from the sea.

The two stood up at the same time. Under the moonlight, a huge black shadow came from the darkness.

"The ship, it's a ship—" The speed of the ship seemed to be very fast, as if it had hit a rock on the bottom of the sea, Cen Xi thought to himself, it's broken, there were some small islands around this island.

Sure enough, there was another loud crash, and the black figure stopped completely.

"Your Highness, let's go and have a look in the past—" Cen Xi said as he took two steps forward, because in the system, he had already seen a green dot not far away, which was from the Beichang Kingdom, and this ship must also belong to the Beichang Kingdom.

But Helian Jianxiu suddenly reached out to stop him, Cen Xi was taken aback, the next moment, he heard the sound of fighting faintly, Cen Xi frowned, and then saw that there was another boat behind the boat, and the white man on board The dots are rushing up at this moment.

Cen Xi remembered that when he met the killer, the red dots were displayed on the map, and the white dots represented strangers.

"Your Highness, it's our ship—" Cen Xi said loudly, seeing the green dot coming towards them.

"Let's go—" the leader shouted coldly, Cen Xi immediately recognized that it was Su Chi, and his face brightened, and then the guards quickly climbed up the island from the sea.

Cen Xi and the man immediately ran towards the person who came, Su Chi led the people all the way here, the merchant ship behind him was sick, and he didn't make a move, and followed him all the way here, and it was inexplicable to hand in hand, and he didn't ask the reason , nor seriously injure their people.

This journey made Su Chi extremely depressed. When he was rushing towards the island he suddenly discovered, two people suddenly walked out of the island, and immediately danced with swords and flowers.

"Su Chi—" There was a cold shout in front of him, and Su Chi's sword froze in a strange posture when he was halfway through the dance, his posture was weird and funny.

"Master, master—"

"Your Highness—" Immediately, a group of guards surrounded him and knelt down respectfully.

"Who is behind?" Helian Jianxiu asked in a cold voice. There were already dozens of figures rushing forward in front of him, and the leader was a thin figure like a black panther hunting beasts at night.

Su Chi's face was awkward, and he couldn't tell who it was, he was really aggrieved, Su Chi had never been so aggrieved.

But the people who came up suddenly stopped a foot away, which was beyond everyone's expectation, even the subordinates of the thin figure who took the lead didn't seem to expect it. Pretty funny in the moonlight.

Everyone fell into a kind of bewilderment, but they didn't dare to act rashly.

The moonlight was clear, and Helian Jianxiu, who had been surrounded by Su Chi and his bodyguards, could clearly see the figure who stopped suddenly. He was thin and thin. To be precise, he was a boy with waist-length hair soaked in sea water. Hanging behind her, was a flawless and delicate side face.

The group of guards under Su Chi were exhausted at first, but now they saw clearly the man who was chasing them, and were immediately stunned by this delicate and almost monster face.

But the young man's gaze pierced through layers of people, shining like stars, a pool of shattered starlight, fixed on the figure in the distance.

The atmosphere was a little weird, as if frozen in time.

"Sister!" Immediately afterwards, there was a cry of extreme grievance, extremely crying, like the grievance and tearful eyes of a lost child who finds his mother.

"Kangdang——" I don't know if the guard's sword fell, and it made a harsh and crisp impact on the stone, and everyone woke up from the bewildered sound.

Cen Xi froze in place, she was familiar with this voice, in the past three years, this body had recalled this voice and this face countless nights, but she dared not imagine that there would be such a reunion today.

"Weizhi?" The trembling voice carried Cen Xi who was cautious and dared not go forward, afraid that this was a dream, at least "she" had such a dream countless times.

"Sister!" The figure rushed over, like a leaping cat, tightly hugging Cen Xi who spoke.

The guards on the opposite side seemed to be more surprised than the guards of Beichang Kingdom, and immediately froze in place, not daring to move, looking at the scene in front of them in horror.

Is this slightly aggrieved voice calling my sister sure it came from their eldest son? Why does it sound more terrifying than killing someone?

"Kangdang—" This time, it wasn't the sword that fell from the hands of the guards of Beichang Kingdom.
