Chapter 1 A Man Fell from the Sky

"General, all the war horses have been killed."

Wei Qingyan stood on the top of the mountain with her hands behind her back. After hearing this, she clenched her fists, and her expression remained unchanged.

After defeating Wudan, she was ambushed by 80,000 Beiling troops on her way back to the capital.

More than half of the 20,000 national defense troops he brought were killed, and the remaining ones retreated to Huangshaling.

The food was eaten up ten days ago. The enemy had a big meal of meat, and the aroma of food in the smoke from the cooking fires destroyed the will of the soldiers.

But we waited for a long time but no help came, and there was little hope...

"Start a fire immediately."

The National Protection Army is of iron will. They would rather die in battle than die in cowardice!

"General, the enemy is attacking again."

The horse meat is not cooked yet, the deputy general will report again...

The sound of killing at Huangshaling shook the sky!

Wei Qingyan's eyes were red and a bloody mist had already appeared.

But in the end, the difference between us and the enemy was huge.

The sharp arrow pierced her body and she was caught by the secret guard Abu. The remaining national defense army quickly gathered around her.

Abu quickly stripped off the armor that symbolized her identity and smeared the blood on her face to conceal her appearance.

Then he took off the mask on his face, revealing a face that was 70% similar to Wei Qingyan.

"Master, let Abu be your substitute for one last time."

He wanted to hide her in a mountain of corpses and find a way for her to survive.

"The Great Wei Protector General is a woman. Come on, everyone, capture her alive. The master will reward you handsomely."

The words of the Beiling people made Abu, who was about to point at Wei Qingyan's position, pick up her silver spear and rush towards the Beiling army, "Kill..."

…

Wei Qingyan sat up from the bed, and the soft quilt beneath her reminded her where she was at the moment.

This was not the first time she had dreamed of this, and after sitting quietly for a while, she came to her senses.

Three years ago, she woke up in the fat monk's Lotus Pier, her body broken and her memory gone.

Until a lotus seal appeared between the eyebrows. As the color of the lotus seal deepened, the body slowly recovered, and even recalled the past two months ago.

Yes, after Huang Shaling died in battle, she came back to life.

Glancing at the dark sky outside the window, Wei Qingyan picked up his bag and left the inn.

The night was no different from the day to her. After finding her horse in the stable, Wei Qingyan rode towards the capital.

She should seek justice for the 20,000 men who defended the country.

*

"thump!"

Wei Qingyan felt as if all his internal organs were smashed into pieces.

When she arrived in the capital, it was midnight and the city gates were closed, so she went to the hot spring she had discovered before to wash up.

Unexpectedly, while he was enjoying a pleasant soak in the open-air hot spring pool, a person fell from the sky. When he wanted to avoid him, he saw the person's face clearly and thought of the sharp rocks at the bottom of the hot spring pool, so Wei Qingyan caught him.

"Wake up, wake up!" She slapped the face of the person in her arms hard.

The man didn't react.

Wei Qingyan grabbed his wrist and his pulse was weak.

There is also a pool above the hot spring. The person in the arms was flowing down with the water, and must have drowned.

Wei Qingyan dragged the man to the shore and pressed his chest. The man spat out two mouthfuls of water, but still did not wake up, his face as pale as a ghost.

Is this... dying?

"The Protector General died in battle, and the Beiling people wanted to disgrace his body. It was Prince Rong who arrived with his troops and slaughtered the remaining Beiling soldiers.

He launched a fierce attack on Beiling to avenge the general who protected the country. Beiling was forced to offer two cities and ask for a ceasefire. Prince Rong was also seriously injured and his hair turned white overnight.

The officials impeached Prince Rong for sending troops without permission, and the Emperor stripped him of his military power and ordered him to recuperate in the capital..."

Wei Qingyan had heard these words countless times, but he didn't know at that time that the national defender general the people were talking about was himself.

The unconscious person in front of him was the emperor's half-brother, Prince Rong Shiyu.

It was he who collected Abu's body, and it was he who killed the Beiling army who knew her identity, preventing the secret of her womanhood from being exposed.

But he lost his military power and developed a chronic illness because of this.

Wei Qingyan took a deep breath, leaned over, pressed his lips against his, and passed the air into his mouth.

Revenge must be taken, and kindness must be repaid.

Who would have thought that the man would suck her lips as if he wanted to suck her whole body into his stomach? Wei Qingyan was about to push him away when a huge force threw her into the pool.

Shi Yu said coldly, "Get lost."

Wei Qingyan was caught off guard and drank two mouthfuls of hot spring water before emerging from the water. "I saved you out of kindness, but you repaid my kindness with hatred."

Wei Qingyan was already in pain from being hit by him, and after being pushed like this, she felt like her whole body was about to fall apart. In anger, she split the water with her palm, wanting to hit it back with water droplets, but the force she exerted made her face turn pale.

She had no strength left. Not only did she not have the strength to use her internal energy, she didn't even have the strength to swim.

As my body sank, I remembered the fat monk's words, "The seal is there, the person is gone. The seal is lost, the person is gone."

The lotus seal is a seal of merit. She is able to travel in the world only because of it.

But, how could the seal of merit that had been with her for three years just disappear?

When Wei Qingyan looked up and saw the man who had stood up, his pupils shrank sharply.

Just when she was transferring her energy to save him, she felt a burning sensation between her eyebrows, which disappeared in an instant. It must be that he had absorbed her seal of merit.

Damn it!

The seal was lost before the mission was even launched, and his body became heavier and heavier. The man on the shore did not move, so Wei Qingyan could only try his best to cling to a big rock to prevent himself from sinking, "Pull me..."

"Who sent you here?" Shi Yu looked at the person in the water with cold eyes.

Recently, the palace wanted him to get married and found various excuses to send women to his house, but he evaded them all.

The Queen Mother summoned him for dinner tonight, and there was something unclean in the wine. He used the hot spring water to force the drug out of his body, but he ended up in a coma. When he woke up, he saw this woman molesting him.

Wei Qingyan's strength gradually faded, and he struggled to hold on. He explained, "I came to Beijing to look for my relatives and stumbled upon this hot spring. You fell from above, and I saw you were dead, so I gave you some air. You pulled me up, as a way of repaying me for saving you just now."

Shi Yu secretly exerted his strength. He hadn't experienced this kind of smooth feeling throughout his body for more than two years. He didn't know what this woman had done to him.

But, "If you can find a hot spring in the mountains in the middle of the night, you won't be unable to get ashore."

He has seen many tricks of pretending to be weak and repaying favors.

He didn't take action because he didn't want the place to be stained with blood.

Seeing him turn and leave, Wei Qingyan was furious, "You bastard who crosses the river and destroys the bridge... Gugu... you bastard..."
