Chapter 314 Good luck will not always belong to one person
Little Dumpling was so sad after hearing what they said that he couldn't control himself. Finally, he couldn't control himself anymore and squatted on the ground and cried.
Huo Linger is her first good friend besides her brothers.
She really likes this friend and doesn't want to lose him.
"Sister, stop crying." You Zhu coaxed the little girl distressedly, "It's not worth it for that heartless Huo Ling'er."
"No, no." The little girl cried breathlessly, "We went too far. That's why the princess is so angry. It's our fault."
"You silly sister..." For a moment, You Zhu didn't know how to persuade her.
"Sister, be good and stop crying." Bai Yu'an took a few steps forward and gently pulled the little girl up. "Listen to my second brother, if this happened again, would you tell Huo Ling'er the truth directly?"
Xiaotuanzi thought about it and slowly shook his head.
She knew in her heart that if she revealed her identity from the beginning, she and Huo Linger would not even have a chance to become friends.
So if she had to do it all over again, she would have no choice but to still choose to deceive Huo Linger.
Perhaps, this is also deceiving herself.
"So, since it would be the same if you did it again, then you have nothing to regret. You tried your best, right?"
Bai Yu'an carefully wiped her tears, "But you also know, sister, there are some things in this world that can't be forced, right?"
Xiaotuanzi nodded as if she understood, but she really couldn't bear to leave Huo Linger.
She threw herself into Bai Yu'an's arms and burst into tears.
"Be good, be good!" Bai Yu'an could only pat her back gently and comfort her in a low voice.
"By the way," Yun Tiankuo spoke again at this time, "There is one more thing, I'm afraid... it's not a good thing."
"What?" Bai Yu'an looked over curiously.
"On our way back, we saw... the government officers and soldiers had already started searching the entire city, and..." Yun Tiankuo paused before continuing, "and they've started posting warrants for your arrest."
Bai Yu'an sneered, "It seems your Barbarian King will not stop until he kills us."
"Then what should we do next?" Qingyun asked in confusion.
Bai Yu'an thought about it calmly. In fact, they came to Beiman in the first place to find Youzhu and the traitor.
Now that You Zhu has been found, the traitor can be confirmed to be Zuo Shanzhang, but they have not had the chance to get rid of Zuo Shanzhang yet.
But the current situation is obviously very unfavorable to them. They are now enemies with the entire Northern Barbarian royal family.
If I stay any longer, it might be dangerous.
"Let's hide in the mountains for a while. When the situation down the mountain calms down, we'll go back to Dajin." Bai Yu'an finally decided.
"No!" Little Dumpling suddenly looked up, tears still on his face, "No, we won't leave."
"Why?" Bai Yu'an was amused by her little appearance and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Sister, is there anything else you want to do?"
The little girl lowered her head and whispered, "Princess Sister...it's not safe in the palace."
"Sister, it's already this time, why are you still thinking about that heartless Huo Ling'er?" You Zhu felt a little disappointed.
Yun Tiankuo and Hai Jiao looked at each other and couldn't help but speak well of the little princess.
"Actually, Princess Ling'er is not a bad person by nature. She is a good child."
"Yes, after all, she is pitiful in the palace. She has lost her closest relatives and only has the Barbarian Emperor and the Crown Prince by her side."
"Second brother," Little Tuanzi hugged Bai Yu'an's neck and begged, "Let's not leave yet. Wait until I confirm that Princess Sister is okay, then we can leave."
"Okay!" Bai Yu'an naturally wouldn't refuse his sister. He gently wiped the little girl's tears and said, "Then you're not allowed to cry anymore. If you cry and damage your eyes, everyone will feel bad."
"Yes, Xiao Suining, don't cry." Hai Jiao stepped forward and took the little dumpling. "Come on, Auntie, I'll take you to have breakfast."
"Thank you, Aunt Haijiao." The little girl stopped crying, but still looked listless.
——
On the other side, Huo Yan and Huo Ling'er returned to the palace.
Huo Yan then ordered Huo Ling'er, "Go back and think carefully about where they are hiding. The Emperor's uncle doesn't want to kill them, but he can't forget the grudge between your father and your aunt."
"Yes, uncle, Ling'er understands." Huo Ling'er was obviously much more obedient at this time.
Huo Yan left satisfied.
On the way back, he repeatedly confirmed with Huo Linger that You Zhu was really Huo Dai's son.
In this case, it makes sense that You Zhu is so gifted, as he obviously inherited it from his sister.
He couldn't help but feel a little scared. He almost killed his own nephew.
When they arrived at the Fire God Temple, Huo Yan immediately sent someone to invite Zuo Shanzhang over.
Soon, Zuo Shanzhang arrived.
"Greetings, Lord Barbarian Emperor!" He said respectfully, "Lord Barbarian Emperor, why did you suddenly summon me here? Is there something urgent?"
"They ran away." Huo Yan's voice was filled with anger.
"Who?" Zuo Shanzhang didn't react for a moment.
"Who else could it be?" Huo Yan asked back unhappily.
Zuo Shanzhang understood instantly, but found it incredible. "You mean... Li Suining and the others... left the palace?"
"Yes!" Huo Yan was so angry that his chest heaved violently.
Zuo Shanzhang almost laughed out of anger. This was the Northern Barbarians, and this was the most heavily guarded imperial palace of the Northern Barbarians. In such a place, Huo Yan already knew the identities of Li Suining and the others, yet he still let them escape.
He couldn't help but think, no wonder the Northern Barbarians' army lost to Baiyun Peak again and again, these people are completely brainless.
Huo Yan was inexplicably irritated when he saw that he didn't speak, "Are you mute?"
"Your Majesty, I just feel..." Zuo Shanzhang felt that he had chosen the wrong teammate, "I just can't help but feel sorry for Your Majesty. Such a great opportunity..."
Huo Yan was so angry that he smashed the teacup. "Don't be so sarcastic. Do you think I'm willing to let them run away?"
"I had planned to tell Huo Ling'er the truth today, and then strangle them at the palace gate when Huo Ling'er drove them out of the palace. But I didn't expect them to suddenly confess to Huo Ling'er last night."
Zuo Shanzhang couldn't help but frown.
Huo Yan continued, "Then, I finally persuaded Huo Ling'er to take me to the inn where they were staying. Don't you think it's ridiculous?"
Huo Yan himself was so angry that he laughed. "I was a step too late. They checked out and left overnight. Zuo Shanzhang, tell me, how could this all happen so coincidentally? Is this fate?"
Hearing this, Zuo Shanzhang suddenly felt relieved. After all, when he was in the Jin Dynasty, he was also tortured by these hateful fates and his life was worse than death.
"Your Majesty, that Li Suining seems to be very lucky indeed. I think they were just lucky to escape this time."
Zuo Shanzhang paused, then continued, "But I believe that good luck won't always belong to one person."
