C132 (1/2)
She gently brushed away the messy hair on her face, then carefully placed her on the bed. Carefully covering herself with the blanket, she got up and asked: ”What should I do?”
Red Dust pointed to the capital of the Guided Country and said, ”There are many medicinal families in the Southern Kingdom. When you go to the Southern City, find someone to treat them. In particular, it's the Ning Seal. It's even a sacred hand, so …”
After clearing up the silence, he looked back at Qiao Liangjin, who was getting darker and darker. He said calmly, ”Okay, let's go to the south side of the city.”
The soldiers who were just about to return to Xuanyuan, suddenly heard the news of changing their direction to go to South City. Many soldiers had already begun to discuss in private what had happened.
He was focused on that person on the bed. He never knew what it meant to blame himself, but today, his heart was in a mess, filled with guilt. If he hadn't guided Qiao Liangjin to this forest, perhaps she wouldn't have met the python …
Perhaps if he had killed the two pythons earlier, he might not have let her get hurt …
Or he shouldn't have …
He had never known that he would have so many assumptions in his heart. If he had always been a pragmatic man, then to him, there were only certain things and no assumptions. But now, his heart was in turmoil.
The woman lying on the bed with her eyes closed had continuously pushed away the water in his heart, making him willingly sink into depravity.
Lu Li came in and stood next to Su Ming. He looked at his hands on his knees and lowered his head. No one knew what he was thinking. What he was about to say turned into a sigh.
After hearing Lu Li's sigh,he looked up in confusion. Seeing that Lu Li wanted to say something, she asked in a low voice, ”What is it?”
Lu Li pointed to the door, got up and walked to the door.
As soon as Lu Li went out, he kneeled in front of Su Qing and said, ”Your Highness, if the original plan is changed, the military camp will be thrown into chaos.”
Su Ling raised her gaze and looked at the soldiers that were still idle. With a calm voice, she said, ”Find out who is the leader and kill him.”
Lu Li was startled. He stood up and stood in front of Su Qing. His face was serious as never before. ”Don't be reckless, Your Highness.”
Qing followed Lu Li's arm and looked at his face. Her voice was still indifferent as she said, ”Lu Li, do you really want to go to the Sword Crafting Villa?”
Lu Li's hand paused for a second. He then bit his teeth and said, ”Your Highness, think twice.”
His finger was like a bolt of lightning, lightly touching Lu Li's shoulder and pushing him to the side.
Lu Li clutched at his shoulder and backed off. A sharp pain came from his shoulder and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. He gritted his teeth and forced himself to kneel at the entrance of the tent.
Lu Li knew that a sudden change in his original plan would cause the morale of the troops to become unstable. He was a guard who had cleared up the area, so he couldn't allow others to clear out the traitors.
Zi Yan walked out of the tent with the water basin. Seeing Lu Li covered her head with sweat as she knelt by the door, she was shocked and asked, ”What are you doing here, Big Brother Lu?”
”Please, Lady Ziyan, help Lu Li. Don't let the king change his military order as he pleases.” Every word that Lu Li said required him to use up all of his strength.
Red Dust, who was resting with his eyes closed, looked at Qiao Liangjin who was lying on the bed after hearing Lu Li's words. He sneered and said, ”What a beauty disaster.”
He raised his finger and a silver light flashed. A silver needle shot toward the red dust. The red dust cloud slightly tilted to the side and the silver needle stabbed into the pillar behind the red dust cloud.
Hong Chen gave a faint smile and said, ”You really do look like you're the unconscious one.”
Standing up, he stretched lazily and said, ”You can't waver in your army's morale. Seventh Prince, how about this? You bring your soldiers back to Xuanyuan. I'll take this girl to the south of the city to look for Ning Ying.”
Su Qing glanced at Hong Chen and sneered, ”Why should I believe you?”
Hong Chen spread out her hands and imitated Qiao Liangjin. She shrugged and said, ”It's not that you don't believe me, it's because your current position is such that you can only do this.”
He rubbed his thumb and forefinger together gently. Looking at Qiao Liangjin on the bed, he got up and walked to Lu Li's side. With a flick of his sleeve, Lu Li fell to the ground with a sound of ”Ah”.
Lu Li got up and kneeled in front of Su Qing again. He kowtowed heavily and said, ”I will risk my life to take care of Princess Hua-Yang. Please be at ease, Your Highness.”
”Get up, prepare the carriage,” he said calmly. ”Bring Princess Consort Wang to the south city first, and I will return to Xuanyuan first, but Ning'er is a gentleman, so I won't use her to threaten me. Otherwise, I will use all the power in my country to flatten this entire south country!”
His words were calm and ruthless, causing Lu Li, who was kneeling on the ground, to shudder.
After the carriage was ready, Lu Li carried Qiao Liangjin onto the carriage. He put Qiao Liangjin on the bed as if she was a treasure, and gently covered him with the blanket. Then, he instructed Zi Yan, ”If anything happens, please get Lu Li to inform me in time. No matter how far I go, I will definitely make it back in time.”
