The Regent and His Wife Couldn't Possibly be so Loving.

51

His wife understands him best.

Without any worries, Xie Shu raised his hand towards the eighteen Jingweis behind him.

Below deck of a merchant ship.

The enclosed cabin was damp and hot and filled with an unpleasant musty smell.

Mingyi sat quietly in a corner of the cabin, from where she could clearly hear what was happening on the deck.

From time to time, I could hear the sound of heavy objects hitting the deck, the sound of people being knocked to the ground.

The sound of weapons piercing flesh, the screams of the wounded, and the messy and heavy footsteps filled Mingyi's ears.

Every moment in the cabin was torture.

She held her breath and listened carefully to the sound, but she couldn't find any sound related to Xie Shu.

Mingyi lowered her head and covered her chest, her fingertips trembling on her heart. She was afraid, afraid to hear the sound of her husband falling down.

Yunying looked at Mingyi worriedly: "Your Highness..."

Mingyi saw Yunying like this and smiled at her, "It's okay. This is much better than the Three Kings Rebellion."

Yunying didn't say much and just stayed beside Mingyi.

The noise on the deck became louder and louder, with voices shouting and yelling. Mingyi could faintly hear the shouts of the people fighting through only one deck.

The first word shouted was the frightening word "kill", and then the voice gradually became chaotic.

Towards the second half of the night, the cries became less and less frequent.

It seems that one of the parties is beginning to take control of the situation, but Mingyi is not sure which party is in control of the situation?

Was it the pirates? Or...her husband.

She waited quietly, and suddenly someone on the deck shouted, "...hit by an arrow."

Who? Who was hit by the arrow?

Mingyi held her breath and listened, confirming over and over again that the man was shouting -

Regent.

Yunying clenched her palms: "Your Highness..."

"I know." Mingyi stood up slowly, wanting to take a step, wanting to rush out, wanting to see him.

No, she couldn't go, she couldn't go out.

Be patient, be patient.

Can……

Mingyi couldn't bear it any longer, so she picked up the candlestick with spikes sticking out from the corner of the cabin, pushed the door open and rushed out.

After pushing open the door, Jingwei, who was guarding outside, was startled to see Mingyi rushing out with the candlestick in hand, and called out urgently, "Your Highness!"

Mingyi came back to her senses, her rationality returned, tears as big as beans fell down her face, and her hands that were tightly clenched on the candlestick loosened little by little.

She turned around and returned to the closed cabin.

The wait was extremely painful, but she had to wait.

As the sun rose in the east, the merchant ship gradually calmed down. Corpses were floating on the canal, and the water was soaked with blood.

There was no sound from the pirate ship ahead, no longer as loud as before.
