Lu Li's request shocked the emperor: "Lu Li, are you sure? The journey to the Western Regions is not easy and is bound to be full of dangers!"

"Your Majesty, I am sure!" Lu Li looked at the emperor with a firm gaze.

The emperor originally wanted to dissuade Lu Li. After all, Lu Li was a general, and the relationship between the two countries was currently unstable. If he went there rashly, it would inevitably arouse suspicion from other countries and trigger a new war, which was a situation that an emperor least wanted to see.

But thinking of Li Han, who was lying in bed with his life hanging in the balance, and looking at Lu Li who was risking his life to plead for his life, the emperor's heart softened and he nodded helplessly: "Go, but you must be careful along the way, not only for Li Han, but also for the peace between the two countries!"

Lu Li knew what the emperor was thinking and what he was worried about: "Your Majesty, I will definitely live up to your trust!"

Seeing that Lu Li was willing to go to such lengths for her, the Queen was very pleased and said worriedly, "Lu Li, promise me that you will come back safely, otherwise Li Han will be sad!"

"Yes, I will!"

Lu Li looked at Li Han affectionately and murmured to her, "Li Han, you must wait for me to come back!"

After Lu Li left the palace and returned home, he briefly explained some things and set off in a hurry. However, he was stopped by Du Jian before he left.

"I want to go to the Western Regions too!"

Lu Li frowned and said coldly, "Get out of here quickly and watch over your shop honestly!"

Seeing that Lu Li ignored him, Du Jian grabbed Lu Li's arm and said, "If you don't take me with you, I'll go by myself. If I accidentally do something I shouldn't do during this time, you should still be responsible for the consequences!"

"You!" Lu Li's eyes flashed with a fierceness, and he stretched out his hand to fiercely pinch Du Jian's neck: "How dare you threaten me!"

Du Jian smiled evilly: "Lu Li, why wouldn't I dare? For Li Han, even if I have to go through fire and water, I will not hesitate. I said, I will always protect her!"

"You!" Lu Li couldn't help but increase the strength in his hands, as if he was stimulated by Du Jian's words and wanted to strangle Du Jian to death.

Du Jian was strangled by Lu Li and could only hum with difficulty through sobs: "If you have the guts, strangle me to death. If Li Han knew you killed me, I wonder what she would think. Do you think she would forgive you?"

Looking at Du Jian's expression, Lu Li knew that he couldn't stop Du Jian. In order to prevent him from ruining the trip to the Western Regions, Lu Li had to compromise.

He let go of her hand and said coldly: "You can follow me, but don't make any trouble. If you dare to do anything on the road, don't blame me for being ruthless!" Then he left without looking back.

Du Jian's face flushed and he covered his neck, gasping for breath in pain, but he was very happy in his heart.

You can't go to the Western Regions just because you want to. The relationship between the two countries is currently tense, and you need the emperor's permission to go. Otherwise, you can't even step out of the border. This is why Du Jian must follow Lu Li.

As soon as Du Jian left, Hua Yunyun came to find Lu Li. Ever since she learned that Lu Li was going to the Western Regions to find medicine for Li Han, she has been restless. On the one hand, she was afraid of being jealous of Li Han, and on the other hand, she was afraid that Du Jian would really find the antidote.

Although she had previously instructed Xie Su to keep an eye on Lu Li and stop him from looking for the antidote, Hua Yunyun was still very frightened. She didn't know why, but she always felt very frightened. Although she tried hard to suppress her urge to find Lu Li, the jealousy in her heart became stronger and stronger, and she finally couldn't help but go find Lu Li.

"Brother Li, are you really going to the Western Regions to get medicine for Li Han? What about your plan? Have you forgotten it?" Hua Yunyun pulled Lu Li and asked excitedly.

Lu Li pulled Hua Yunyun's arm away and said coldly, "Aren't you meddling too much? I don't have time to take care of you right now. Stop messing around!"

Hua Yunyun smiled bitterly and shouted at Lu Li, "I'm fooling around? You actually said I was fooling around just for that bitch Li Han! What about me? Have you almost forgotten me? For Li Han, you traveled thousands of miles to find medicine for her, and I've been dragging this broken body around for so many years, and you've never once asked me about it, why have you ever done this for me?"

Lu Li frowned, feeling a little annoyed after hearing Hua Yunyun's unreasonable words: "Enough, stop talking!"

Lu Li seemed unwilling to see Hua Yunyun again, or perhaps he felt a little guilty. After all, he had indeed ignored her these days because of Li Han. So he turned around and faced Hua Yunyun with his back.

"Don't think too much. I will save both you and Li Han. Li Han is in danger now. I have to leave immediately and don't have time to be angry with you. After this matter is over, I will find a way to save you. You go back!" Lu Li said lightly.

"Lu Li, you have changed. You were not like this before. Why? Why have we become like this now? Why!" Hua Yunyun shouted at Lu Li at the top of her lungs.

For so many years, Hua Yunyun has always played the role of a gentle, generous, and considerate beauty in front of Lu Li. In order to win his favor, she has always called Lu Li "Brother Li". But this time, Hua Yunyun called Lu Li by his name directly, which only shows that she is very disappointed with Lu Li!

Lu Li remained silent and called the guards over: "Miss Yun is tired now, send her back to rest!"

The two guards received the order and carried Hua Yunyun out. Hua Yunyun struggled desperately and shouted at Lu Li, "Lu Li, you will definitely regret this. That bitch Li Han will definitely kill you in the end. Your kindness and love for her now will become a sharp knife that she will use to pierce your heart in the future!"

Lu Li closed his eyes, lost in thought. After Hua Yunyun left, the room returned to silence. At this moment, a secret guard emerged from the shadows and said without any expression, "The person behind this has been found. It's Miss Yun!"

Lu Li suddenly opened his eyes, a sharp look flashed in his eyes, and he said coldly: "Are you sure?"

"I'm sure it was the assassin sent by Miss Yun herself. It seems like they've been planning this for a long time!"

Lu Li thought of Hua Yunyun's angry expression and what she had said to him just now, and couldn't help but shook his head: "It seems that I have been too indulgent towards her these days. After the trip to the Western Regions is over, it's time to deal with her properly!"

Because of his previous friendship with Hua Yunyun, Lu Li tolerated her again and again. Every time he was disappointed in her, his disappointment would be blurred by her pity. Moreover, he always did excessive things to Li Han. This time, he even wanted to take her life directly. This method was extremely cruel, which made Lu Li feel that Hua Yunyun was no longer the gentle junior sister he once knew.

But now Lu Li was thinking about Hua Lihan's affairs and couldn't take care of Hua Yunyun's affairs for the time being, but he had a plan in mind.

Afterwards, Lu Li took his men and rushed to the Western Regions overnight.
