C210 (1/2)
They rested for a few hours before setting off.
Su Li rode the same horse as Mo Lianjin, and this time they sat behind him with their hands wrapped around his waist, sticking closely to his back.
”How long will it take to get from here to the border?” Su Li asked.
When he was fixing up earlier, Mo Lianjin suggested to make a trip to the border trial before returning to the capital.
”We'll rush to the next three villages tonight and depart tomorrow morning. We'll be there by noon.”
”There are … Doctor? ” Su Li asked.
”Hmm?”
”I don't have any medicine on me, just in case the wounds on your body need medicine …”
”In the next three villages, there are only three families. Without a doctor, there's no harm in treating me. It's all thanks to the poison that you let me take away that day.”
Su Li placed half his face on Yun Che's back and sighed inwardly. Somehow, it seemed as if there were some things that were truly heaven's will.
It looked like he would have to find an opportunity to see a doctor after he had obtained the border pass.
Around 8 in the evening, the few of them arrived at the lower three villages. One of the families seemed to be familiar with Mo Lianjin, respectfully inviting them in and preparing food.
Only then did they realize that Mo Lianjin had frequently come here when he was at the border trial. The criminals that were occupying this place all those years ago were all eliminated by him alone.
The next morning.
The few of them had a simple breakfast and left some silver to this family before leaving.
Just as Mo Lianjin had said, they had arrived at the border camp at noon.
At a glance, the military camp was located in a canyon. The three sides were all steep cliffs. There was only one way in, and it was easy to defend but not easy to attack.
From the top of a cliff, there was a waterfall cascading downwards. That scene caused everyone to be stunned.
Entering inside, one would see a neat and orderly camp with spotlessly clean floors. In the innermost area, there was a very large and spacious area.
”Your Highness!” When the soldier in charge of the guard saw Mo Lianjin, he immediately shouted towards him, ”The Prince is here!”
In the blink of an eye, all the soldiers rushed over and lined up in the spacious field.
By the time Su Li walked over with Mo Lianjin, the black mass of people had already been neatly lined up. Every soldier had their blood boiling and energy boiling as they looked at Mo Lianjin with eyes full of admiration and obedience.
Seeing that, Su Li could not help but feel proud in his heart.
This man was hers, that's great!
”This King came late. At today's banquet, This King will punish himself with three bowls.”
Mo Lianjin waved his right hand, and his cold tone swept the entire area.
”Alright!” The sound of everyone's voice added together was such a good word that it almost shook the ground three times.
”How is three bowls enough? Your highness should punish yourself with three buckets! ” A tall and sturdy man with a darkened complexion ran over.
He was not wearing a military uniform, and he was wearing a long robe and shirt. When he ran over, he was extremely light, which was a huge contrast to his stature.
”If This King was alone, three buckets would be three buckets. But now that This King has someone to control it, This King will only dare to drink when she says yes.” As Mo Lianjin spoke, he held Su Li in his arms. ”This is Su Li, this king's wangfei!”
Hei Qi was startled, and looked at Su Li up and down, with an undisguised look of despise in his eyes.
”Is Your Highness joking?”
”Is This King someone who likes to joke?” Mo Lianjin's tone turned cold.
Hei Qi immediately restrained himself, but he did not give Su Li another glance, he did not believe that such an ugly woman, could actually be the Fifth Prince's Wife!
Su Li's reaction was very normal. Her current face was indeed too shabby.
