"This fire doesn't seem to be an accident."

Under the dark shade of the tree, Yun Qi knocked on his felt hat again and leaned against the tree with his crossed hands. His voice was rather unruly, casual and natural.

As he spoke, Shan Liancheng took something from his hand and placed it into his mouth, as he said in a low and calm voice, "Many thanks."

Yun Qi leaned against the river more lazily as his melodious laughter resounded in the cool breeze.

"Don't you think it's a little sad for you to be alive? You must know, only the Dai Nation Palace back then had this kind of thing. Now, with the Dai Nation having disappeared for so many years, you should know better than me who the poisons are. However, the person behind this might be simple in his heart and just wanted to promote a good thing. And then the ship went on fire, it was not that simple behind the scenes. It was obvious that it wanted your lives. Prince Jin, you have already taken off your armor, abandoned your military position, and taken the initiative to show off.

Hearing Yun Qi's words, he was afraid that not only did he know Shan Liancheng, he was also very familiar with him.

"Is Great Swallow fun?" Shan Liancheng asked instead of answering.

"All the mountains and rivers in the world have the same color. Everything is the same. The only difference is a person's state of mind. The key is to understand how to put it down." Yun Qi said.

"Haven't I put it down yet? Haven't I put down enough? "

This seems to be the first time, but Yun Qixi heard that he did not call herself Master, nor was it me, but me.

"You?" Yun Qi scoffed, "Being a member of the Great Swallow Imperial Family is your greatest sorrow. For some people, only when you die can you truly be considered to have been put down completely. "

"A person will die sooner or later." Shan Liancheng said.

"But with your current situation, is it really okay for you to drag Qixi into this?" She's innocent. " Yun Qi said.

Hearing Yun Qi suddenly mention him, Yun Qixi couldn't help but prick up her ears.

"The finger marriage was an order from the Royal Father, resisting the decree is a capital offense." Shan Liancheng replied calmly.

Not knowing why, but after hearing his official reply, Yun Qixi actually had a faint sense of loss in his heart. Perhaps this was a kind of selfishness on the part of people, and they hoped that everyone had a bit of friendship for their own good. Yun Chong said that he went to ask for an imperial doctor for her because he had her in his heart. She told him rationally that he should be doing this completely to suppress the crown prince. What happened on the boat, other than the role of that charming and charming girl, there was nothing else.

"For your great Royal Father, marriage can only be a decree, he can so easily decide the fate of a woman. If you marry her, you can leave her behind and marry her again, but if she marries you, she will live her entire life. In this world, men and women should be fair. "

Yun Qi's words, word for word, were all Yun Qixi's thoughts, and each word struck right on her heart. He really knew her too well. So maybe that was why she trusted him. Even though she knew he wasn't simple, that he was a mystery, she still trusted him unconditionally and believed that he had his reasons for hiding it.

"As a member of the royal family, you have no choice." Shan Liancheng's response was a little irritable, as if he had admitted what Yun Qi had said at the beginning. As a member of the Great Swallow, he felt the greatest sadness.

"Actually, if you were even slightly late, you wouldn't have had to jump into the river. General Yun and I would have come."

"If you guys are here, why would you want to jump? If I don't jump, do I have to wait to be burned to death? " Shan Liancheng's answer was a bit sharp.

Yun Qixi humphed with a smile, "I don't care if you jump or not, what I'm worried about is the Double Seventh Festival. When a woman comes to Sunflower Dew, she is most afraid of getting cold. If you let her soak in the icy river water, you will be harming her. "

Yun Qixi suddenly felt hot in her eyes. Normally, not many people would treat her well, so whenever someone treated her well, she would be moved.

Yun Qi was like a confidante who understood women very well. Not only did he understand women's thoughts, he even understood their physiology. Such a man was a treasure in the ancient era where both men and women were inferior to each other.

After Yun Qi's reminder, she finally remembered this word as well. Sunflower Dew was a word that she could not recall even when she was extremely embarrassed on the boat. He believed that in the future, this word would become familiar to him and it would be difficult for him to forget it.

Achoo!

Yun Qixi's nose suddenly started to itch, and she sneezed loudly. At the same time, she saw that the two people who were initially talking, as well as Yun Chong who was standing not too far away, all looked towards her at the same time.

"Hur hur, I'm done changing." Yun Qixi laughed.

If it wasn't for the darkness of the night, they would have been able to see the awkwardness in her smile.

Then, the three men looked at her from head to toe. Yun Qixi felt uneasy as she grabbed onto the empty clothes on both sides of her body and smiled embarrassedly, "Your clothes are much bigger than normal, but it's much better than not wearing them at all."

She covered her embarrassment with a deliberately relaxed tone.

Three men, one was her brother, the other was her fiance in name. After the three of them finished sizing up the person who walked towards her in large strides was Yun Qi.

"Is it cold?" Yun Qi walked up to her and asked.

Just as Yun Qixi finished shaking her head, another loud sneeze tore her stage.

Yun Qi smiled impatiently. "Don't come out when it's cold, go roast the fire."

"It's alright, I took my clothes to the river bank to wash them and dry them. The clothes I'm wearing are too big for me." Yun Qixi said.

"I'll help you wash it." Yun Qi had already taken the clothes from her hands.

Thinking that there were still some filthy things on her clothes, Yun Qixi blushed, and said anxiously: "No need, I'll go wash myself."

Yun Qi turned to look at her and mocked, "You're so thin, you don't even have the strength. How are you going to wash? "Don't wait until you fall into the river. I don't want to jump into the river again to fish for you."

With that, he took his clothes and walked towards the river bank, and in a short while, he disappeared into the night.

"Qixi, let's go in first." Yun Chong said.

Thus, Yun Chong returned to the cave with her, but Shan Liancheng did not enter.

Yun Qixi sat down by the fire and asked, "Brother, how did you come?"

The firelight shone on Yun Chong's face, revealing a faint melancholy.

"Because I didn't see you until nightfall. Qiao Er told me that you were invited by a madam to go sailing on a river, so I hurried over."

"But why would Yun Qi come here?" Who the hell is he? "

Yun Chong looked at her deeply, "You really don't know his identity?"

Seeing Yun Chong's expression, Yun Qi's identity was indeed not simple. Yun Qixi shook her head blankly.

Yun Chong sighed silently, "Actually he is …"

"Are you that interested in him?" An indifferent voice came out from the mouth of the cave, cutting off Yun Chong's words.

Yun Qixi looked up and saw Shan Liancheng standing at the cave entrance. His large figure blocked most of the moonlight outside.

"You're right. How can I not be interested in such a man who knows women so well?" Yun Qixi smiled innocently.

She sat cross-legged in front of the fire, wrapped in a big robe. She looked very funny, but when she smiled, she looked very sweet, as if she had forgotten for a second what she had just experienced.

A faint fire flickered on the solemn face at the entrance of the cave. His emotions could not be clearly seen.

After being silent for a while, Shan Liancheng walked in, but did not walk to the edge of the fire, and leaned on the mountain wall instead.

Not long later, Yun Qi returned.

Seeing the washed clothes in his hands, Yun Qixi was extremely embarrassed.

Yun Qi sat down beside her and was about to open her clothes to roast it when Yun Qixi took it over embarrassedly, "I'll do it myself."

The cave was very quiet, so quiet that it was somewhat awkward.

Yun Qixi had nothing to say, "Yun Qi, is Cui Cui better now?"

"With me here, how could she not be better?" Yun Qi smiled casually.

"Of course." Yun Qixi flattered them, and then the two of them laughed.

Inside the cave, apart from the light of the fire, there was nothing else, but it covered up a subtle atmosphere.

"Hey, I feel like you did the wrong thing?"

"How?"

"I think that since you understand women so well, you should be a woman." Yun Qixi chatted with him nonchalantly, almost completely forgetting that there were two other men in the cave.

Yun Qishen looked at her. "Isn't it better for men to understand women?"

"Heh heh," Yun Qixi laughed innocently, "Alright then, whoever marries you in the future will be happy."

The firelight reflected Yun Qi's gentle and beautiful smile, and when he heard her words, his smile became even wider, as he looked towards Shan Liancheng who was seated beside him.

There was a fire between the two of them and their gazes met. Yun Qi was smiling, but Shan Liancheng had a sullen face and his emotions were unclear. The more he was like this, the deeper Yun Qi laughed.

"Is it still cold?" Yun Qi asked Yun Qixi gently.

Yun Qixi held onto her face that was flushed from the grilling, "It was a little cold at the start, but I'm really hot now. It's summer, so the grilling is bad, isn't it?"

Yun Qi smiled, his gaze never leaving her face. It was warm, warmed by the light of the fire.

Yun Qixi had the nagging feeling that Yun Qi was this different today. His warm gaze made her feel a little uncomfortable and she was just about to turn her face away.

"Don't move." Yun Qi said.

Yun Qi's body slowly tilted over, his hand extended towards her face.

Yun Qixi held her breath and stiffened as she stared at him.

Yun Qi touched her hair and gently plucked a blade of grass, bringing it to her eyes. "Look, this."

Yun Qixi stared at the grass in his hand and really wanted to beat him up.

"I'll go out and take a look." Yun Chong suddenly stood up and walked out of the cave.

It was at this moment that she suddenly smelled a strange smell. She turned around and saw that her clothes were on fire.

She cried out and threw the clothes out. She looked at the burning lump not far away and grimaced.

"What am I going to wear now? Yun Qi, it's all your fault. "

Yun Qi gave a helpless smile. "Why are you blaming me again?"

"If it weren't for you splitting my heart, would I have been so careless?"

Yun Qi was even more helpless. "Good, good, good. My fault. I'll compensate you next time. Oh right, didn't you have all my silver with me?"

There was a deeper meaning to his words, but in another corner, someone's face was very dark, as if someone owed him something.

Not long later, Yun Chong returned.

"The palace has sent someone."
