The night is as cold as water.
There was chaos on the Xiangshui River.
Under the water, the fight was also extremely lively.
With the three-foot sword, he personally went down to the river to deal with the assassins under the boat.
Originally, it would take less than a three-foot sword to do this kind of thing personally. After all, as the first servant of the royal family, the most important task tonight is to protect the queen and her party.
However, seeing that the assassins underwater could not be solved, Sanchijian had no choice but to come forward in person.
However, it still seems a little late.
The three-foot sword was a crushing force, and it quickly eliminated several assassins under the water. Then, with another strike of the sword, it cut off all the iron ropes that trapped the flower boat.
Unexpectedly, at the moment when the rope broke, the cracks in the wooden planks of the flower boat spread rapidly due to its own gravity and water pressure. Then, a huge gap appeared under the hull, and the river water rushed into it like a flood bursting its banks.
Not far away, the only assassin who was still breathing saw this scene, with a crazy smile on his face. Immediately, he reached out and pulled out the short knife hidden in his leg, and inserted it directly into his belly.
Suddenly, blood spurted out, staining the surrounding river water red.
"Um?"
Sanchijian frowned slightly when he saw the assassin commit suicide, and without any delay, he stepped into the air and swam quickly toward the water.
"Help!"
At this moment, panicked screams kept ringing on the water, because the flower boat was filled with a lot of water, and the entire flower boat almost sank.
In the flower boat, the princes struggled desperately holding tables and chairs, trying to get out of the sinking flower boat.
"Aunt, let's go!"
Outside the cabin, eldest son Fengyu split open the cabin with a knife, rushed inside, grabbed the queen, and was about to leave.
"Save Rong'er and Xizi first!" Queen Changsun said anxiously.
"Brother Li, help save people!"
In a hurry, eldest son Fengyu saw someone not far away and shouted anxiously.
"Who to save?"
Li Ziye held a table and floated on the water, asking boredly.
This guy will cause trouble for him.
In fact, he just wants to stay here and be a quiet savior.
"The Ninth Princess and the Eldest Princess!"
The eldest grandson Fengyu responded anxiously, "I'll take the Queen and leave first!"
After saying that, the eldest grandson Fengyu did not dare to stay any longer, so he took his aunt and left first.
"Prince Ganyang, save me, I will give you all my wealth!"
In the rushing river, Qing Wuhou, who had been looking for trouble, heard the conversation between the two and immediately burst out with strong desire, raising his head and shouting.
"I'm not short of money, forget it, go on."
Li Ziye responded casually and threw a stool next to him.
Qing Wuhou saw the stool thrown in front of him and reached out to grab it as if grasping a life-saving straw.
However, the tables and chairs used for today's banquet are all made of high-quality solid wood, and their buoyancy is average. Even after Qingwuhou's huge body was pressed on the stool, he still could not completely float.
"Qingxuan, hold on for a while, I'll go rescue people first."
In the chaotic situation, Li Ziye warned the woman next to him and immediately swam towards the two women in front.
"Young master, be careful."
Behind, Yu Qingxuan hugged the long table in front of him and reminded nervously.
However, before the words could be spoken, the river water crazily poured into the cabin and formed a huge wave, which swept everyone out.
An unlucky prince was knocked directly on the cabin by a big wave, and his life or death was unknown.
In the waves, Li Ziye and a child pulled Murong and Princess Xizi out of the water.
"Ahem."
After the two women surfaced, they both began to cough violently, especially Mu Xizi, who was already in poor health, and had a sickly flush on his face.
"Li, Professor Li, thank you very much."
After coughing several times in a row, Murong managed to take a breath and said gratefully.
"You're welcome."
Li Ziye responded casually, "If I don't save the princess, the masters in the imperial army will take action, just earlier or later."
In today's situation, saving Murong was out of love. After all, he didn't look at the monk's face and the Buddha's face. With Mu Bai's relationship, he couldn't just watch something happen to Murong.
As for saving the eldest princess Xizi, it is purely for future use.
There is no doubt that the bridge between the Li family and the royal family is the eldest princess, and she cannot be allowed to die now.
Having said that, the quality of this boat was very average, and it suddenly cracked. If he hadn't reacted quickly, it would have been shot to the bottom of the river by now.
Where's the old man Le Ru?
Isn't it going to be cold?
At night, there was a mess above the water. Nearly a hundred princes and nobles were struggling in the water in embarrassment. Those who found floating objects were better off, but those who didn't found it seemed that they couldn't survive for long.
Around them, some Forbidden Army soldiers who had not yet had time to take off their armor were dragged directly into the water by the heavy armor. Those who were agile were fine, but those who were less skilled never had a chance to float.
Life, at this moment, seems so vulnerable.
Li Ziye looked at all this indifferently, with no pity in his eyes, but only indescribable calmness and indifference.
It was as if no joy or sorrow could be seen in the eyes of the savior.
Not far away, after Le Ru emerged from the water, he saw the familiar eyes of the Li family's heir in front of him at the first sight, and his heart was shaken involuntarily.
He had seen this look more than once.
They are all at the head of Confucianism.
The Confucian leader has been watching the world for thousands of years and has seen countless lives, separations and deaths. However, the Confucian leader has never taken action to save any poor person in the eyes of the world.
Every time the Confucian leader looked at the world, his eyes were exactly the same as that of the legitimate son of the Li family.
Calm, even a little indifferent.
He once asked the Confucian leader why he didn't save as many poor people as possible, but the Confucian leader never gave an answer.
"Boy!"
After a brief thought, Le Ru came back to his senses and shouted, "Do you still have the strength? Save people!"
Li Ziye heard the voice from behind, turned around, looked over, smiled, and replied, "I have no strength."
After saying that, Li Ziye withdrew his gaze again, pulled Murong and Princess Xizi onto a long table, and let them lie down on it.
"Professor Li, give me your hand and I will pull you up." After climbing onto the long table, Murong stretched out his hand and said anxiously.
"Need not."
Li Ziye put his arms on the long table and said leisurely, "This thing can't withstand the weight of three people. I can just lie down here."
"The prince is a great practitioner of the Five Realms, so he can take the first step." On the side, Mu Xizi managed to catch his breath, looked at the young man in front of him, and said in a weak tone.
"I want to share the joys and sorrows with everyone."
Li Ziye stared at the messy river in front of him, smiled and said calmly, "In this way, those surviving princes will not reject me so much. After all, we have lived and died together."
Hearing this, Mu Xizi looked forward and said softly, "If the prince thinks so, you can go and save a few more people."
"That's not necessary."
Li Ziye smiled indifferently and said calmly, "That's good. I have already saved those who should be saved by me."
Even the Qing Wuhou who had just attacked him, he threw a stool over.
He tried his best.
