Chapter 625 A major incident has occurred in Nan'an!
After saying that, Que'er angrily turned her head and prepared to run away.
Sha San rushed forward and hugged her tightly.
"No, Sparrow, I know I was wrong."
"I was really wrong."
“I’m just insecure…and a little timid…because I care about you so much, I can’t help but compare myself to him.”
"I also want you to choose someone better, so you won't regret being with someone like me and regret it for the rest of your life."
“I used to think that I was similar to Zhuiyu. We were both people who worked for our master. What difference could there be?”
"Even in terms of looks, I'm no worse than him."
"But as time went on and we spent more time together, I gradually realized that I was no match for him at all..."
"In the end, I'm just a killer, an assassin. If you ask me to kill, I'm no worse than him."
"But I have no other skills besides killing people."
"When it comes to fighting on the battlefield, I'm just a soldier. But he's a general, a man of great talent who can command the three armies!"
"Sparrow, you've chosen me, are you really sure you won't regret it?"
Upon hearing this, Que'er couldn't help but tear up.
"Alright."
She wasn't heartless, so she couldn't hold a grudge against him any longer.
"We are all human beings, so what's the difference?"
"The girl often says that everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses, and happiness is different for everyone."
"If we always compare ourselves to others, we will lose our happiness and our true selves."
“I admit that he is outstanding in every way, but I am not a lady of noble birth with both beauty and talent.”
"I am just a little girl, what merit do I have to win the favor of two fine men in this world?"
“Since I chose you, I have made plans for my whole life. I, Que’er, am not the kind of person who is fickle and will fawn over whoever I find attractive. What kind of person would I be?”
"Besides, haven't I seen anyone better than either of you?"
“Our prince, he is not the most perfect and outstanding man in the world, so why am I so afraid of him that I dare not have the slightest romantic feelings for him?”
"Isn't it because I know what kind of person I'm really suited for?"
“Zhuiyu is very good.”
"But remember, Kill Three, you're good too."
"Every time you go out to fight bloody battles, kill enemies and save people, and that one time I saw you in a clearly critical situation but still reached out to save a child first, do you know how cool you are?"
"Besides, we're about to get married. If you keep being so insecure, where does that leave me?"
"Kill Three, use the rest of your life to prove to me that I didn't make the wrong choice, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Sha San burst into tears.
He kept nodding in agreement with the sparrow.
"Alright, I'll prove myself. Sparrow, besides you, you're the best person I've ever had in my life!"
The sparrow chuckled.
"Fool. The girl doesn't need you to be nice to her, she wants your loyalty."
"I am your wife."
"If we can live our lives well and be loyal to the girl, then our lives will have been worthwhile."
Que'er cupped Sha San's face in her hands, looking at him like a big dog wagging its tail, and couldn't help but stand on tiptoe and kiss him.
Originally, she just wanted to give him a positive affirmation while blushing.
Little did anyone know that Sha San was completely stunned by her action.
"You, you, you...we haven't even officially tied the knot yet, how could you be so disrespectful to me..."
Sparrow: ...
At this moment, why do I feel like I'm the one who's been lewd and disrespectful to him, this respectable married man?
Seeing Sha San looking like a giant shrimp that was about to be cooked, Que'er couldn't help but burst into laughter, clutching her stomach.
"Kill three, you idiot three! Haha, ahahaha..."
The laughter reached behind a large tree not far away. Although Zhuiyu, who was holding the rabbit, still felt a little melancholy, he had long since decided to let go, so he just smiled faintly in relief.
That's fine too.
Sparrow, may you laugh heartily like this throughout your life, and may you always know peace and happiness.
Li Qingluo had read the note in her hand several times, but her brows furrowed more and more.
Granny Zheng brought the hot tea to her hands, "Miss, has something happened?"
"Ever since you parted ways with Princess Nanping, you have been restless and preoccupied."
"If you are really worried, why not send two people to secretly follow Princess Nanping?"
Li Qinglu shook her head.
Looking at the bonfire burning brighter and brighter in front of her, she said calmly, "Nanping is already heartbroken and she is determined not to let me interfere in her affairs anymore. I can save her body, but I can't save her heart."
"Moreover, she didn't want her father and mother to be saddened by the news of her death, even if it was just a fake death, she didn't want to make things difficult for her family."
"She is a good daughter and a good princess."
"Each of us has our own path to walk in this life. Not interfering with the fate of others is also a form of respect."
"I respect her decision."
Therefore, although Li Qingluo knew Nanping's predicament, she could only watch her leave helplessly.
It's just that I can't help but feel a little sad.
She could have used this opportunity to escape the swamp, but she resolutely chose to plunge back into the flames.
Having lived two lifetimes, Li Qingluo will love herself even more.
But Nanping, she alone did not love herself.
"Young lady, you've done your best."
"You even came all the way to the Western Regions for Princess Nanping, even though your health is already... You still made this trip. You have done your best for her."
"Even if something happens in the future... you don't need to feel guilty anymore."
Li Qingluo nodded, putting the matter aside completely.
She picked up the message Duan Rongshifei had sent her and then told Granny Zheng, "Something terrible has happened in Nan'an."
"The Empress attempted to poison the Emperor of Chu, and the Crown Prince conspired with the Yang family to rebel. Now the Crown Prince has been deposed. In order to protect the Crown Prince, the Empress took all the blame upon herself and committed suicide with a cup of poison."
"Granny, we need to quicken our pace."
"I suspect that the Emperor of Chu has ulterior motives, and may use His Highness as a shield, or to promote other princes."
"Back in Daliang, Your Highness was treated like this by your own father, Emperor Yan. He used Your Highness as a knife to grind and whittle, and later, fearing that Your Highness would seize the throne, he suppressed Your Highness at every turn."
"Your Highness should not be treated so unfairly anymore."
"At worst, we'll just stay completely away from both courts."
"I want to go back to him as soon as possible. So give the order to leave early tomorrow."
When Granny Zheng heard about the situation in Nan'an, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
"Yes, young lady!"
Half a month later, outside the city of Loulan.
After a long journey and some hardships, Li Qingluo and his party finally arrived at the valley that was like a paradise on earth—the Kingdom of Loulan.
Just as the legend says, the city of Loulan was built at the bottom of a valley, and a waterfall cascaded down the cliff outside the city.
Right now, Li Qingluo and her group were lying in the grass beside the waterfall on the cliff, looking at the fairyland city in the valley, each of them with amazement on their faces.
Everywhere you look, there are birds singing and flowers blooming.
Even though it's autumn, this place is still as beautiful as a fairyland.
A magnificent palace.
Magnificent architecture.
Even the clouds and sunset in the sky seemed more magnificent and colorful than those in the outside world, like a dream.
"Have we arrived at the Heavenly Palace?"
Is this really the human world?
"Compared to Eagle King City, the people of Eagle King City live such miserable lives!"
The sparrow, who had never seen such a beautiful scene even in paintings, couldn't help but gasp in amazement.
Even Granny Zheng said, "This old servant has followed the old lady all over the country and seen countless beautiful landscapes. But even after all these years, I have never seen such a fairyland in this world."
"As expected, the Loulan Wonderland lives up to its reputation."
Li Qingluo is someone who has been to the underworld.
Although the lower realm of the underworld is shrouded in gray, the upper realm of the underworld is no less so.
Even my mother's celestial palace is superior to this one.
She just didn't say anything, so everyone admired her for being so calm.
As expected, it has to be a girl; she's calm and collected.
Xuan Cang stepped forward: "Junior Sister, Loulan is in the valley below. We've seen so many corpses and bones in the traps along the way. It's clear that everyone wants to join the Loulan Kingdom, but unfortunately, very few actually make it there."
"I've heard that Loulan never accepts outsiders. Even those who risk their lives to reach Loulan can only stay temporarily, and almost no one can truly stay."
"Furthermore, I wonder if Loulan will recognize the passbook that Queen Hailiye gave us... How do you plan to successfully enter the city gates?"
Along the way, Xuan Cang witnessed Li Qingluo's ability to command her subordinates and her own skills, and became increasingly certain that she could rescue her master.
Therefore, nowadays, Li Qingluo makes all the decisions, big and small.
Although he was her senior, he listened to her without complaint.
Li Qingluo did not answer Xuan Cang's question, and suddenly turned her head to look behind her.
"Don't rush, someone's coming."
The moment he finished speaking, the assassins behind him became alert.
Li Qingluo quickly raised her hand, indicating that she should not act rashly.
Then another commanding voice rang out quickly: "Who goes there?"
"come out!"
A group of people wearing silver armor and carrying weapons approached from behind.
Li Qingluo took the lead in raising her hand and standing up.
"We come from the Central Plains of the East."
"There was no malicious intent."
"Please inform the King of Loulan that we have important matters to discuss with him."
The group of Loulan guards exchanged glances.
They didn't sense any murderous intent from this group of people.
What surprised them even more was that so many people were able to arrive in Loulan safely on their own.
This is something that has never happened before.
Unless they were guided by the Loulan people, or... they do indeed have some skills.
"Go and inform the general."
In the end, Li Qingluo and her entourage were successfully welcomed into the city.
However, their weapons were confiscated before they even entered the city.
Even the short knife on Li Qingluo's body, the hidden arrow on his wrist, and the sword and bow on the back of the horse that was switched from a camel to a horse halfway through the journey, were all taken away.
“You are foreigners, and your weapons are not allowed into the city.”
"This is the accommodation you will be staying in tonight. Please rest early and do not wander around the streets unless necessary."
"If you cause trouble, Loulan will protect you and expel you from the capital immediately, never to be allowed to enter again!"
"Everyone, take care of yourselves."
After saying this, the general who had brought Li Qingluo and the others into the city left with his men.
Li Qingluo and her group were left standing in the magnificent mansion, looking at each other in bewilderment.
They were just let in like that, and then given free housing?
