Chapter 280 Going to Cangzhou
Wang Wei looked at the Crown Prince, whose face was very pale, and asked hesitantly, "Your Highness, what should we do now? Princess Jinzhi should know the truth about the assassination."
The Crown Prince frowned, then said, "What she means is that the downfall of the Du, Yang, and Cui families is my last chance. If I can't deal with these three families before she returns to the capital, it will prove that I am not capable of being the Crown Prince."
Wang Wei frowned. "The princess is far too arrogant. Even His Majesty has never said anything like that."
The Crown Prince sneered, "Arrogant? Look at what happens to those in the capital who dare to mess with her. If I weren't the Empress Dowager's son, I would be the next one she deals with."
Wang Wei's face was grim. "You also fell for that old scoundrel's treacherous scheme in this assassination attempt."
The Crown Prince shook his head. "She doesn't care who I ally with or who I want to win over. This arrogance and confidence are just like her father, Qin Ziyi."
The chosen ones of heaven are all alike.
However, these words were also meant to tell him.
Even now, she's still on his side.
From then on, only ability mattered, not family ties.
Wang Wei stepped forward and said, "The princess has suddenly left the capital. We don't know why. Should we send someone to find out?"
The Crown Prince waved his hand, "No need, matters in the capital are of utmost importance right now."
"yes."
The Crown Prince raised his eyes, "Tonight we will go to Shen Chenghui's place."
The Eastern Palace was shrouded in gloom, while the caravan outside the city was filled with joy.
The carriage was not moving fast.
In the darkness, several figures jumped out of the convoy and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Feiyan pouted in the carriage. The princess had promised to take her everywhere she went!
It left on its own again!
Inside the carriage, Yun Que had changed into Qin Jinzhi's clothes and was wearing Qin Jinzhi's human skin mask.
Hu Aman looked at Feiyan with a smile, "Little Feiyan, you have to think of it this way: it's because you and Lao Qin are too close that you have to play the part in this play."
Feiyan pouted, "Really?"
Hu Aman patted her head. "Those who know her know that there is a little palace maid who grew up with her and was raised in the palace by her. Only when you are in this carriage will others believe that the person in this carriage is her."
Feiyan sadly took out a piece of pastry from her bundle and stuffed it into her mouth.
"All right."
Meanwhile, Qin Jinzhi, who had disappeared, reappeared at the dock with Si Sha Luo Shui and Wei Xue Qi.
She wanted to go to Lingnan, but she also wanted to visit Cangzhou.
Many people in Beijing are paying attention to her, and Wei Xuan's relationship with her cannot be exposed yet.
A boat soon appeared on the dock.
A man jumped off the boat, saying, "Miss."
Wei Xueqi stepped forward and said, "Send us back to Cangzhou as quickly as possible."
The man welcomed the four people onto the boat.
Once out to sea, Wei Xueqi felt refreshed and invigorated.
“Princess, we will arrive in Cangzhou in less than three days.”
Qin Jinzhi smiled at Wei Xueqi, whose complexion had become much rosier, and asked, "How's your martial arts training going lately?"
Upon hearing this, Wei Xueqi's eyes lit up.
"Princess! I'm not bragging, but I can lift a ten-pound stone right now without any problem!"
Qin Jinzhi laughed after hearing this, "Good, keep it up, you are very talented."
Wei Xueqi's eyes lit up even more. She said, "How could she not have martial arts talent if she could hold her breath underwater for so long!"
It seems she's a martial arts genius too!
Luo Shui looked at Qin Jinzhi with disdain.
Is this how you usually fool naive young girls?
Qin Jinzhi raised an eyebrow; her ability to encourage others is a rare and precious virtue.
Si Sha sat to one side and opened the small bundle that Fei Yan had given her.
He picked up a piece of sweet cake and held it to Qin Jinzhi's lips.
Qin Jinzhi smiled and said, "You eat."
Si Sha stuffed the pastry into his mouth, then squinted his eyes.
The man who came to pick up the four was Wei Xuan's deputy, Liu Yu.
Wei Xuan originally wanted to come and pick up Qin Jinzhi herself.
But now she's in the spotlight and attracts a lot of attention.
To show respect, she sent her deputy to pick up Qin Jinzhi.
However, apart from Wei Xuan, no one knew Qin Jinzhi's true identity.
The boat sailed very steadily, almost as if it were on flat ground.
On the second day on the ship, several people went up to the deck for some fresh air.
There were more than just them on the sea.
Liu Yu walked over and said, "Miss, I have prepared a meal for you and your friends. Why don't you all dine on the deck?"
The view from the deck was nice, and the sea was calm.
That's a good suggestion.
Wei Xueqi looked at Qin Jinzhi.
The latter is the same.
Liu Yu is very quick and agile.
While the group was sitting on the deck, people from the neighboring ship came up to the deck to get some fresh air.
No one paid any attention.
After a while, another person came out of the cabin next door.
Wei Xueqi looked over with some curiosity.
But as soon as he saw the person's face clearly, the bowl immediately fell to the ground.
An angry expression instantly appeared on his face.
Qin Jinzhi noticed her loss of composure and followed her gaze.
The person opposite looked familiar, and soon, the person's face matched a name.
Wei Ziming, the military governor of Huainan.
How did he end up here?
Wei Xueqi suppressed her anger and used her body to shield Qin Jinzhi.
The two ships were neither too close nor too far apart, and when he saw someone on the opposite deck, he looked over as well.
He was facing a girl, but before he could see her face clearly, another figure blocked his view.
Wei Ziming didn't pay any attention and stayed on the deck for a while before returning to his cabin.
With red eyes, Wei Xueqi said, "You are going to Cangzhou in secret. If he sees you, it may be bad for you."
Qin Jinzhi now thinks more highly of Wei Xueqi.
In just a few days, the girl, who was barely clinging to life, was still thinking about the bigger picture even in her anger.
However, Wei Ziming's appearance here is not a good omen.
Qin Jinzhi called Liu Yu over, "That boat is traveling with us, and you may know its possible destination."
Liu Yu immediately said, "The only destination on this route is Cangzhou, so they should also be heading to Cangzhou."
Qin Jinzhi raised an eyebrow. Going to Cangzhou, could it be that he noticed Wei Xuan?
A moment later, she turned to Wei Xueqi and asked, "Should we teach him a lesson first?"
Wei Xueqi quickly asked, "Is it okay?"
As night fell, two figures jumped into the water and swam towards the boat under the cover of darkness.
After an incense stick had burned, two figures swam back.
Just fifteen minutes after the two entered the cabin.
A great deal of noise came from another boat.
Qin Jinzhi led Si Sha to the side of the boat and nudged her little head toward the other boat.
"Listen to what they have to say?"
The two boats were so far apart that Qin Jinzhi couldn't hear what they were saying.
But Si Sha has excellent hearing.
Si Sha listened for a moment, then exclaimed, "It's leaking!"
A moment later, the people on the boat next door waved to them.
Four Kills turned around and said, "We'll help."
A smile appeared in Qin Jinzhi's eyes. "You need our help?"
Quadra nodded.
Qin Jinzhi turned to look at Wei Xueqi and smiled:
"Since you want our help, then we have no choice but to speed up our progress!"
