Chapter 367 I gave up the throne for you!

Although he saw it, Huo Qingchen only dared to laugh secretly.

Otherwise, if his elder brother saw him, he would definitely be beaten up again.

Chu Huaixu looked around and said, "The sun is about to set. It's unclear what will happen at night. We should not continue our journey. These woods can be used for making a fire. With a fire at night, wild animals will not dare to approach easily, and it will also keep you warm."

After all, I have been in Xiliang for some time and have a certain understanding of the situation in Xiliang.

Even though it's a bit hot at noon, it's still quite cold after the sun sets.

Especially on the grassland, it is not excessive to wear cotton clothes after the sun sets.

When they packed their things, they also brought a thick piece of clothing, but they didn't know if it would be enough for the night.

Fortunately, there was this wooden man who brought them so much wood.

The wood is a bit big and not easy to burn.

Yu Youning took his knife and started chopping wood.

She chopped a thick piece of wood into a size suitable for starting a fire.

There is no need to chop the rest. Larger logs are more durable, otherwise you will have to keep adding firewood at night.

Not long after the fire was lit, the sky gradually darkened.

A gust of wind blew by, and it felt a little cold.

Everyone quickly put on thick clothes.

Wei Zhao even asked someone to bring out a pot, pour water into it, and boil a pot of hot water.

Everyone ate hot bread and roasted meat.

Yu Youning took out another bag of dried vegetables and some preserved fruits.

We ate, drank, talked and laughed around the fire, and I didn’t feel cold anymore.

There is still a lot of wood. Pick out the larger and flatter ones, pile two or three together, and you will have a simple wooden bed.

Although it was hard to lie on, it was better than lying on the grass.

There is dew on the grass now!

If you really lie on it, your clothes will get soaked.

Not far from Yu Youning, lying was Chu Huaixu.

"A Xu, are you cold?" Yu Youning turned her head to look at him.

Chu Huaixu's body is still not comparable to that of ordinary people. In this case, he still needs to pay more attention.

Chu Huaixu shook his head, "I'm not cold. Youning, don't worry!"

In the light of the fire, Yu Youning stared at Chu Huaixu's face for a long time before looking away and looking at the sky.

"Look, the stars on the grassland are so bright!"

"Yes!" Chu Huaixu also said.

Huo Qingchen stretched out his hand and touched the sky, "I always feel like I can grab it if I just stretch out my hand!"

As he spoke, he grabbed it hard.

Of course, nothing was caught.

But Huo Qingchen was not disappointed at all, instead he laughed.

Although no one knew why he was laughing, they didn't need to know.

Everyone started laughing too.

Amidst the laughter, Wei Zhao quietly turned his head and looked in the direction of Yu Youning.

From his angle, he could only see half of Yu Youning's profile.

But even so, he could still clearly feel the bright smile on Yu Youning's face.

Looking at that smile, he couldn't help but laugh along with it.

As long as she is happy.

That's enough!

After laughing for a while, sleepiness began to surge up. Yu Youning then thought of a kiss, "Where are Tuoba Ruoli and the others? How come it's been so long and they haven't caught up yet?"

"It's better if they can't catch up!" Huo Qingchen said, "Don't think about them, just go to sleep!"

Yu Youning thought about it and decided to stop dwelling on it. He closed his eyes and fell asleep.

at the same time.

Tuoba Ruoli was staring sinisterly at the young man who had boasted in front of her before.

He did modify the wooden man and did take them for a walk.

But after only walking for a while, it suddenly fell apart.

The fall apart happened suddenly and Tuoba Ruoli was not prepared at all, and she didn't know any martial arts.

Even though he subconsciously grabbed the people around him, he still fell from a high altitude.

He didn't break any arms or legs, but he twisted his ankle and it was a little dislocated.

Even though her bones have been straightened, she has applied medicated oil, and taken the medicine she brought with her, she still needs to rest for a night before continuing her journey.

If he wasn't incompetent, she wouldn't have fallen like this!

If this happened in Wucheng, Tuoba Ruoli would definitely not hesitate at all and would directly let Qiongqi eat him.

But now...

This is the time to use people, so for now we can only be patient.

Tuoba Ruoli took a deep breath and then spoke softly, "What happened just now was also an accident. I know you definitely didn't want it to happen. Don't think too much about it. I don't blame you."

The young man had been feeling anxious, but when he heard what Tuoba Ruoli said and saw the smile on Tuoba Ruoli's face, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, Your Highness! I don't know what happened either. I will definitely not let this happen again next time!"

There will be a next time?

Tuoba Ruoli sneered in his heart.

She would never believe him a second time!

-

late at night.

Yu Tingwan couldn't sleep, so he walked out of the tent and looked towards the cliff.

During the day, they had already gone around to the other side of the cliff, which was the end point of the competition, and were waiting there.

Although I was very tired from traveling during the day, I still didn’t feel sleepy at all at this late hour.

Although there was nothing to see except the sky full of stars, Yu Tingwan still didn't want to go back and just wanted to stand outside and watch.

Wen Shiyan also walked out of the tent and put a cloak on Yu Tingwan.

Feeling the warmth brought by the cloak, Yu Tingwan was filled with melancholy, "I wonder if Youning is cold now."

Wen Shiyan gently held Yu Tingwan in his arms, "Don't worry, you don't know what kind of physique Youning has. She won't be cold, and nothing will happen to her!"

Yu Tingwan smiled helplessly, "I know, but I just can't stop worrying."

"It's okay! I'm worried about you too!"

Time passed bit by bit, and Yu Tingwan slowly relaxed, leaning on Wen Shiyan's shoulder. "Ah Yan, for so many years, you didn't make any achievements or develop your influence. Even the young master was almost in name only. You stayed by my and You Ning's side. Do you regret it?"

"Why should you regret it?" Wen Shiyan's voice was as gentle as ever. "For me, what I want most is to be with you. Everything else is secondary. I've already got what I wanted most. Asking for more would be too unsatisfactory."

"You're right. Only when people are content can they be happy!"

Yu Tingwan sighed.

"A few days ago, during a palace banquet, I was walking around the Xiliang Palace and saw Lin Siqiong kneeling in a courtyard. I felt a little dazed when I saw it."

When I first met her a few years ago, Lin Siqiong was in her prime.

Only a few years had passed, and after going through so many things, Lin Siqiong had fallen to that point.

Just looking at it makes people feel sad.

"She's just too ungrateful." Wen Shiyan frowned. "She's already taken over your identity, yet she's still not satisfied. She's done so many wrong things, one mistake after another. She's brought this upon herself."

"I don't think things are that simple." Yu Tingwan said in a rather heavy tone, "That Princess Anguo always gives me a strange feeling. I just hope the competition ends quickly so we can leave Xiliang and go back."

"After going back this time, I'm afraid I'll come again in the future!" Wen Shiyan said with a smile.

"Why?"

"Have you forgotten? You Ning wanted to take over Xiliang just to eat delicious food!"

Even though he knew there was no one else around and Wen Shiyan's voice wasn't loud, Yu Tingwan still slapped him in annoyance.

"The people from Xiliang are not far away. Are you saying this because you're worried that we won't be able to leave Xiliang safely?"

"I was wrong! I won't say that again! It's getting late, let's go back and rest!"

Yu Tingwan didn't insist anymore and went back to the tent with Wen Shiyan.

In the camp of Xiliang Kingdom.

In Princess Anguo's tent, she was playing chess with someone.

If Yu Youning were here, she would definitely recognize at a glance that the person sitting opposite Princess Anguo was her master, Chu Huaishan, whom she hadn't seen for several years!

Compared with a few years ago, Chu Huaishan has not changed much.

If I have to say there is any change, it is that there are more white hairs on my head, and it seems that I have gained a little weight.

Princess Anguo put down a white piece, with a smile on her lips, and looked at Chu Huaishan.

"You will be able to see your little apprentice tomorrow."

"Of course, that's provided she can fly over the cliff."

"If you can't fly over, or fall down halfway through, you'll never see it again."

While Princess Anguo was speaking, she kept staring at Chu Huaishan's face.

She wanted to see an expression of anger or panic on Chu Huaishan's face.

She wanted Chu Huaishan to submit to her and beg her.

But after looking for a long time, there was still no change in Chu Huaishan's expression.

He was still as calm as he had been in the past few years, and it seemed that no matter what happened, his mood would not fluctuate.

Seeing Chu Huaishan picked up a black piece and was about to put it on the chessboard, Princess Anguo swept the chessboard to the ground with force.

The chess pieces fell to the ground.

The ground was covered with a thick felt blanket, and the chessboard fell on it, not only did it not break, it didn't even make any noise.

There were just chess pieces scattered all over the floor and an overturned chessboard, which looked a bit messy and absurd.

Princess Anguo gasped for breath. "Why don't you say anything? Aren't you worried about your little disciple? Isn't she your favorite little disciple?"

Chu Huaishan still held the black chess piece in his hand, gently turning it between his fingertips.

Hearing this, he just glanced at Princess Anguo and said, "Princess, why are you doing this?"

"What do you think? Why do you think I am suffering?"

"I gave up the throne for you!"

"But why! Why did you abandon me!"

"If you hadn't left me, how could I have married someone else and given birth to that bastard!"

"If you were to marry me, the one you'd love the most would be our granddaughter!"
