Inside the coach's tent, Lin Chujiu lay on the cold floor, motionless.
The sun gradually moved westward, and soon Lin Chujiu was shrouded in darkness, but still no one noticed.
Inside the stone prison, Xuanyuanzhi was still rolling on the ground in pain, and the iron chains were being pulled with a rustling sound. From time to time, Royal Doctor Zhu asked the guards to step forward to hold him down, give him an injection, or give him a medicine to fully execute Xiao Tianyao. As long as Xuanyuan Zhi doesn't die, it's fine.
Outside the camp, the Black Armored Guards were still standing there. Even after standing there for a day and a night, they were still standing upright, with no trace of tiredness on their faces, ready to fight at any time.
In the camp, Dongwen's soldiers guarded their duties and dutifully patrolled back and forth. Everyone was like a javelin, and their eyes were sharp, like a generation of beastmasters patrolling the territory of beasts.
In the capital, the emperor was discussing matters with his confidants in the study room, and repeatedly confirmed that the border war was over. Xiao Tianyao did not return to the capital for a long time. It was after the border battle with the emperor Xuanyuanzhi, the emperor was angry and angry, and he couldn’t get Xiao Tianyao’s reply for a long time. , The emperor was angry for a while, and the headache attacked again.
Imperial Doctor Qin was rushed into the palace, and after some diagnosis and treatment, the emperor's condition improved. Imperial Doctor Qin persuaded the emperor to calm down and recuperate, and not to worry about worldly affairs, but the situation at the border was there, how could the emperor feel at ease
When his health was a little better, the emperor announced that Lin Xiang would enter the palace to discuss matters. Lin Xiang knew the emperor's heart well, and he did not need the emperor's express order.
As soon as the imperial decree was printed, a messenger took it out of office and rushed it all the way to the border.
However, less than two hours after the previous imperial decree was sent out, the emperor added another urging imperial decree to let Xiao Tianyao rush back to the capital as quickly as possible.
Two imperial decrees in a row, issued on the same day, and this is not the end, but the beginning...
At the border, Xiao Tianyao didn't know that the emperor had issued two imperial decrees in a row, asking him to come back. He was looking at the map of the border and the terrain near the Tianwai Xuan iron ore vein, so that he could take advantage of the geographical advantage to plan the Tianwai Xuan iron in the hands of the eldest prince, but...
Xiao Tianyao, who has always been pure-hearted and has few desires and has been handling official business day and night, could not concentrate at this time. As soon as he saw the map, Lin Chujiu's tear-stained eyes flashed automatically; as soon as he saw Tianwai Xuantie In the terrain near the mine, Lin Chujiu's accusation could be heard in his ears: "My lord, I am not Liu Bai, who is strong in martial arts, nor Su Cha, who is good at business, nor Mo Qingfeng, who is shrewd and capable. I am just a woman, and I am not A woman who knows martial arts and doesn't even have the ability to protect herself. Like other women, I can't be more ordinary."
"Perhaps, this king is too harsh on her." Xiao Tianyao put down the map and rubbed his eyebrows.
Even if his original intention was because he believed in Lin Chujiu, it was indeed too much to leave all the responsibilities that belonged to him to Lin Chujiu.
Without him, the soldiers in the army would have no power to backhand against Xuanyuanzhi and the Heijiawei. If Lin Chujiu hadn't turned the tide and stopped Xuanyuanzhi with a plan, the army would have suffered heavy losses.
He couldn't think of a good way to deal with the mysterious iron ore veins outside the sky, but he threw it to Lin Chujiu willfully. Even if Lin Chujiu didn't get Tianwai Xuantie, he wouldn't blame Lin Chujiu, but in the end, it was given to Lin Chujiu, more than she could bear the pressure.
However, Lin Chujiu's performance was better than he imagined, he thought... He shouldn't be able to find a second woman who is more suitable for him than Lin Chujiu.
"Lin Chujiu..." Xiao Tianyao tapped on the table and called Lin Chujiu's name softly, and every time Lin Chujiu's name was called, Xiao Tianyao's expression softened a little.
"Chu Jiu..." However, when Lin Chujiu's name was called again, Xiao Tianyao suddenly froze, and the hand that tapped on the table stopped in mid-air.
"Damn it!" Xiao Tianyao stood up suddenly, his expression became solemn in an instant, "Damn, I actually left her in the tent alone."
Xiao Tianyao scolded himself in reproach, took his long legs and walked out, his steps were far beyond ordinary...
"Wang..." The soldiers outside the camp saw Xiao Tianyao and were about to salute, but when they spoke, they found that Xiao Tianyao had disappeared, leaving only an afterimage.
"Am I dazzled?" Xiao Bing raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, always feeling that he was wrong. And there is definitely more than one person who doubts his eyes like him, because Xiao Tianyao's speed is so fast that he can only see a gust of wind blowing by, and he can't see a figure at all.
"Wang... Lord." Jin Wu, who was guarding outside the main camp, was not much better than those soldiers. When Xiao Tianyao walked into the camp, they called out the last word "Ye".
Xiao Tianyao rushed into the tent like a whirlwind and came to the inner room, but he stopped as soon as he walked in.
The woman he was thinking about and said to take good care of, was lying on the ground at this time, her face was pale and purple, and she was motionless, like a dead person.
"Lin Chujiu, don't scare me!" Xiao Tianyao stepped forward and hugged Lin Chujiu.
Touching Lin Chujiu's icy sarcasm, Xiao Tianyao's eyes flashed with unease, and he held the person tightly in his arms. His voice was choked and hoarse. If Lin Chujiu was still awake, he would definitely cover his ears. Called: This voice is so good, the ear is really going to be pregnant.
However, Lin Chujiu really fell into a deep coma this time, she didn't have a trace of consciousness at this time, if it wasn't for the slightly heaving chest reminding Xiao Tianyao that she was still alive, Xiao Tianyao would really think that Lin Chujiu was dead.
Lin Chujiu's whole body was frozen stiff, and her exposed skin was as white as paper. Holding her was no different from holding a dead person.
"Lin Chujiu, I'm sorry." Xiao Tianyao picked up the person, but the moment he got up, his legs softened and he fell down again.
Xiao Tianyao staggered, knelt on one knee on the ground, hugged Lin Chujiu firmly, and did not throw Lin Chujiu out.
Looking at Lin Chujiu's blue and purple lips, Xiao Tianyao felt a pain in his heart, lowered his head, and kissed her lips: "Lin Chujiu, this time it's the king's fault."
The moment he kissed Lin Chujiu, in Xiao Tianyao's mind, Lin Chujiu who was covered in blood suddenly flashed, lying helpless and helpless in the dungeon, crying weakly: "My lord, you believe me, you believe I, I really didn't hurt you!"
Obviously he didn't see that scene, obviously he didn't go to the dungeon to pick up Lin Chujiu in person, but in Xiao Tianyao's mind, he clearly outlined the scene in the dungeon and Lin Chujiu's tragic situation.
"You're right... This king always hurts you." For a moment, self-blame seemed to drown him. He found that he was really not good to Lin Chujiu, not at all, and it was really not easy for this woman to stay by his side.
"You're right... I am so fortunate to be able to marry you." Xiao Tianyao closed his eyes and held Lin Chujiu tightly in his arms. There was no superfluous expression on his cold face, but there was a drop of suspected tears in the corner of his eye. something slipped...
