When you turn your gaze forward, all you can see is the vast surface of the water and the faint dark mountains in the distance. Feng Changqi's mood at this time was as complicated as the ripples at the bottom of the boat, and he couldn't calm down for a long time. Her mind kept coming back to the scene of seeing the little girl on the riverbank, repeating every word they had ever said.

Feng Changqi's heart was in turmoil.

She knew that she had actually done something wrong in this matter, but she couldn't be ruthless, after all, that girl was also a living life, if she killed her in order to hide their hearts, then Feng Changqi would not be able to look past it for the rest of her life. It would be nice if A-Niang was here, if A-Niang was here, she would definitely be able to find the best solution, and both sides would allow her to deal with it properly........

It's a pity that A-Niang will never appear again!

Feng Changqi closed his eyes and forced himself to accept the fact that Bai Huan was dead.

"What are you thinking?"

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind him, and Feng Changqi subconsciously turned his gaze and looked back, which happened to meet Wu Xi's slightly narrowed eyes.

Today's matter, the most sorry person is Wu Xi, his decision is obviously correct, but he has to give up because he has to take care of Feng Changqi's idea, this matter may affect them, so Feng Changqi is full of apologies, and he doesn't know what face to face Wu Xi for a while. She lowered her face for a long time before she said, "I'm sorry." ”

As soon as these words came out, the person on the other side was stunned.

In fact, Wu Xi came to see Feng Changqi this time, because Yueqing instructed Yueqing to be a very careful person, after she got on the boat, she could see at a glance where Feng Changqi was entangled. She herself knows nothing about this kind of thing, after all, she has never been an emperor, and Yueqing doesn't know what kind of words to use to persuade her, so she went to find Wu Xi. At first, Wu Xi was very unhappy. Fang was on the riverbank, and it was not that he didn't persuade Feng Changqi, but she didn't listen to herself, and insisted on soft-heartedly sparing the little girl's life, what could he do? You can't kill the little girl in front of Yueqing, right?

Since Feng Changqi has made a choice, he should be mentally prepared that someone will come to the door.

After hearing Feng Changqi's apology, Wu Xi's face was very exciting, he hesitated for a moment, and he said embarrassedly: "You don't need to apologize to me, this is your own choice." ”

Feng Changqi sighed and shook his head: "This matter is indeed that I am too willful, I should listen to your opinion." ”

"Knowing regret means that you are still saved."

Feng Changqi raised his face: "If you want to sit in that position, do you have to be a cold-blooded and ruthless person?" ”

"You can't say that." The main reason why Wu Xi came here was to talk to Feng Changqi, persuade her to want to open more, and teach her some things about the way of the emperor by the way, so he was not surprised by this question at all, "Sitting in that position does not mean that you have to be a cold-blooded and ruthless person, but to abandon some fixed-line thinking, enlarge your concept more, and then magnify it, instead of dwelling on the matter of children's love all day long." ”

Feng Changqi frowned tightly and didn't say a word.

Just from the look on her face, Wu Xi could guess what she was thinking, narrowed her eyes slightly and said, "Yueqing asked me to come over and teach you, but there are some things that you may not be able to understand just by talking, so I'll give you an example." If you succeed in getting rid of the inkstone, after sitting in that position, you will suddenly have another problem in front of you. Holding an inkstone threatens you with the life of one person, killing a hundred people in exchange for the life of one person, do you choose to kill one person or kill a hundred? If the person being held hostage was someone close to you, what would you do? ”

Who has ever asked Feng Changqi a similar question before? She stood there stunned, not knowing what to say for a while.

Wu Xi coughed lightly: "Answer my question." ”

"I....... I do not know. "The life of one man is the life, but the lives of the other hundred are not. This question is a bit difficult for Feng Changqi.

"I knew you would say that." Wu Xi pressed his temples with a faint pain, his eyes rolled slightly, and he had another idea in his heart, "Since you can't answer this question, let's change the question." What would you do if the people of a city were infected with a plague, and the plague was so transmissible that there was no cure? ”

Feng Changqi hesitated to speak: "Lockdown? ”

"After the lockdown?"

Feng Changqi stopped talking, where did she experience this kind of thing before, everything was blocked by A-Niang and Master, and the wind and waves were blocked, but now facing Wu Xi's question, she didn't know how to answer.

Wu Xi sighed again and shook his head: "If there is another candidate to inherit the throne, your aunt will definitely not choose you." ”

Feng Changqi sounded no problem with these words, after all, she was very clear about her situation, but someone was not happy, that person was Yueqing, who had been hiding in the cabin, listening silently to their conversation. She frowned and walked out of the cabin dissatisfied: "I've heard you ask questions since just now, asking this and that, but I haven't heard you give you the answer. Why don't you tell me what you would do if it were you? ”

"Okay, I'll tell you then."

Wu Xi is not Feng Changqi, he has been sitting in that position for a long time, and almost everyone in the meeting has already learned, if this matter falls on him, he has a way to solve it. If the people in a city were infected by an incurable disease, Wu Xi would choose to close the city as soon as possible, just like Feng Changqi had just chosen. After the lockdown of the city, after making sure that no one around him was infected, he would start his next plan, using the army to wipe out all the people in the city, and then burning the entire city, disguised as being attacked by the enemy and defeated without a fight, in order to calm public opinion.

As soon as this approach was spoken, Feng Changqi and Yueqing were stunned, and even Qingxiu, who knew little about the affairs of the imperial court, was dumbfounded: "This, this is too cruel 1"

"Is it cruel? I don't think so. ”

Wu Xi looked away calmly, and his expression was calm, so that people did not doubt his methods at all. If this really happened to him at this time, he would definitely do it.

"Didn't you hear the premise clearly? The disease they contracted was not only a highly contagious plague, but also an incurable disease, the kind that all the doctors in the world could not cure, and if they were left in the city, they would not be able to live, and it would only be a matter of time before they died. ”

Anyway, there is only one ending, and killing them can not only stabilize the overall situation, but also give relief, isn't it great?

Reason told Yueqing to follow the trend of Changqi that Wu Xi's decision was not wrong, but emotionally, they had no way to accept this setting........ Perhaps from a macro point of view, Wu Xi's method can better solve the problem from the source, and sensibility and rationality are the key to being a king.

Feng Changqi pressed his temples with a faint pain, and secretly cried out in his heart.

I only saw the dignity of A-Niang after becoming the monarch before, but I didn't see her embarrassment, if there is a chance to choose in the future, Feng Changqi will definitely not be the emperor, there are too many constraints like that!

While a few people were talking, Qingxiu glanced back, and was suddenly stunned.

She stood up suddenly, her face full of panic: "They, they are catching up!" ”

When everyone heard this, they hurriedly turned their heads along Qingxiu's instructions, and sure enough, they saw that at the end of their sight, the sails were looming in the fog, and they could even hear the sound of people talking, and it would not be long before the pursuers would catch up with them....... Although I didn't understand the identity of these people, my intuition told them that the people who came were not good!

The person with the most complicated mood in the field was Feng Changqi, although she was prepared that the other party would expose their whereabouts when she rescued the little girl, causing them to be chased and killed by the pursuers, but when she really saw this kind of scene, she still felt a little uncomfortable.

She lowered her face, ashamed and blamed herself: "I'm sorry ......."

Everyone heard her apology, but no one reacted, not even Wu Xi, who had always been very dissatisfied with it.

It's come to this, it's useless to say more!

Wu Xi looked behind him and immediately said, "Our ship is too small, and the operation is not skilled enough, if we want to escape from under their noses, we must abandon this ship." ”

"Abandon ship and run away? Isn't that a little inappropriate? Qingxiu said puzzledly, "We finally got the boat, and if we want to go, we can only go by water, if we abandon the boat and run away, then don't we have to take the land route?" It's too dangerous, isn't it? "There are eyeliners everywhere outside, and they go back to town, not knowing how many people they will be targeted!

Wu Xi understood the concerns in her heart, shook her head and said with a complicated expression: "Right now, we don't have a second choice. ”

If they don't abandon this ship, they won't even be able to get rid of these pursuers, and now they can only take one step at a time. The group took all the important items out of the cabin, and before the pursuers arrived, they hurriedly jumped out of the boat and swam to the shore not far away.

Although it was summer at this time, the river water was cold, and as soon as they entered the water, they couldn't help but shiver.

Qingxiu's worried gaze fell on Feng Changqi: "Your Highness, are you okay......... "If it's another time, it's okay, Feng Changqi knows water, don't worry about not being able to adapt, choose at this time!" She has just recovered her body, and her physique is so special, how can she stand this cold?

Qingxiu's voice couldn't help but whimper: "Your Highness, don't be afraid, we're almost there." ”

Feng Changqi turned his head to look, was amused by her attitude, shook his head and said, "I'm fine, don't worry about me." ”

The cold river water was indeed very uncomfortable to swim in, but within the tolerable range, Feng Changqi's hand pressed lightly on her abdomen, and she believed that her child would not be so fragile.
