"Your Highness is too kind. I think it was thanks to your hard work that Thirteen was able to escape danger," Qinglong said, looking at Ye Qingcheng with gratitude.
Ye Qingcheng smiled and said, "You've got a way with words, kid."
"No, I truly want to thank you for myself and for Thirteen. From this moment on, my life and Thirteen's life belong to you."
"If you ever need anything in the future, without even needing to give the order, I would gladly go through fire and water for you."
Pfft!
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingcheng chuckled and glanced at Qin Mohan.
Then, smiling at the Azure Dragon, he said, "Are you going to betray your master?"
Well?
Upon hearing this, Qinglong trembled and looked at Qin Mohan.
"No, how could I dare? Neither you nor my master."
Hahaha!
Seeing Qinglong's frightened expression, Ye Qingcheng burst into laughter.
Qin Mohan, however, seemed indifferent: "Qing'er, I think Qinglong is right. You and I are husband and wife, he is my subordinate, and of course he is yours. He is willing to go through fire and water for you, and I am happy to do so. Not to mention him, even my life is yours."
“That’s right, Your Highness. Whether it’s you or your master, you are both people we should protect with our lives.”
"Hey! Alright, why are you getting so emotional? I was just joking. Besides, no matter what, you're all so loyal, I'd allow anything to happen to any of you."
Qinglong was even more moved after hearing this: "Thank you, Your Highness, for being so good to your subordinates. You are the best princess I have ever met. I am so glad that my master was able to marry you."
Ye Qingcheng smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to be such a sweet talker, despite your honest and simple appearance."
"No, what I said was all from the bottom of my heart."
"Alright, alright, stop talking, or your master will be dying of jealousy," Ye Qingcheng said with a smile to Qin Mohan.
Qin Mohan smiled and shook his head: "Qing'er, you're overthinking it. I'm overjoyed that Qinglong and the others genuinely treat you as their master. Why would I be jealous?"
Ye Qingcheng chuckled again: "Alright, I was just joking, why are you all taking it so seriously?"
As the conversation continued...
The sky began to brighten.
At this moment.
Azure Dragon felt his power return, let out a loud shout, slapped the ground with both hands, and then stood up.
Um?
Ye Qingcheng and Qin Mohan turned to look at him.
"Qinglong, you've recovered?" Ye Qingcheng asked happily.
Qinglong walked up to Ye Qingcheng and knelt down: "Yes, Your Highness, I thank you."
"Hey! Alright, alright, you've said your piece, why are you kneeling? Get up right now."
"Yes, Your Highness."
After Qinglong finished speaking, he stood up.
Then.
Leng Er also shouted, releasing his internal energy.
"I've recovered too."
After he finished speaking, he stood up and bowed to Ye Qingcheng.
Seeing this, Ye Qingcheng was speechless and told him to get up.
Immediately afterwards.
Then Qingyi and Ningxin, followed by Xiaotao, Xiaocui, and Xiaoxin, all regained their strength.
Ye Qingcheng and Qin Mohan were very happy to see that everyone had recovered.
Qinglong walked to Thirteen's side and looked at him.
"Your Highness, when will Thirteen wake up?"
"It shouldn't be long."
As he spoke.
At this moment.
Leng Yi also woke up.
"Brother, brother, you're awake."
When Leng Er saw that Leng Yi had woken up, he shouted happily.
Hearing the shout, everyone turned to look at Leng Yi.
Ye Qingcheng walked over and took her pulse.
"Hmm! Not bad, the poison in your body has been completely neutralized, but the wounds haven't healed as quickly as they should have."
Leng nodded slightly, and said gratefully, "Thank you, Your Highness."
"No need to thank me. You were shot while saving me. I should be thanking you."
"No, protecting the princess is what I should do."
“That’s right, Your Highness. It’s an honor for my brother to take the arrow for you.”
After hearing this, Ye Qingcheng nodded and didn't stand on ceremony with him anymore.
After a while.
Thirteen slowly opened his eyes.
Qinglong and Qin Mohan were both very happy to see this.
"Thirteen, you're awake."
"I...Master...This subordinate is..."
"Thirteen, you brat, why did you take an arrow for me? Do you know that if anything happens to you, I'll be worried for the rest of my life?"
"Brother Qinglong..."
"Alright, that's enough. How are you feeling?"
"I...I feel...I'm much better," Thirteen said with difficulty.
Ye Qingcheng then moved to his side, checked his pulse again, and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yes, it's definitely healed, but the wound will take time to recover."
"Your Highness, it was you who saved me, wasn't it?"
"That's right, Thirteen, it was the Princess who saved you, quickly thank the Princess."
"Alright, no need for gratitude, it's good that you're all alright."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Watching.
Everyone has recovered.
Qin Mohan stood up.
"Qing'er, now that everyone has recovered and it's dawn, let's go down the mountain! I wonder if the carriage is still there."
Ye Qingcheng nodded: "Okay, let's go!"
"Qinglong, Leng Er, Leng Yi, and Shisan, I'm leaving them to you two," Qin Mohan instructed.
"Yes, Master."
Then.
The group left the cave, descended halfway down the mountain, and arrived at the road.
When the group saw that their carriage was still there, they all grinned excitedly.
"Great, Miss, the carriage is still here," Xiao Tao said happily.
Ye Qingcheng nodded with a smile.
Then.
The group boarded the carriage and checked their belongings, finding that they were still there.
The group then set off again towards Jiangnan.
Along the way, they encountered several groups of assassins, but they managed to eliminate them all.
About five days later.
They finally arrived in Jiangnan.
"Wow! Miss, the scenery in Jiangnan is so beautiful!"
At this moment, Xiao Tao sat next to Ye Qingcheng, lifted the curtain, looked at the scene outside, and sighed.
Ye Qingcheng nodded and said softly, "I didn't expect that the Jiangnan region in ancient times was even more beautiful than it is described in modern times."
Ancient times? Modern times?
Upon hearing this, Qin Mohan, who was sitting opposite, frowned slightly, but did not ask any questions.
soon.
They then arrived at the city gate.
At this moment, some soldiers were guarding the city gate, checking passersby.
Qinglong stopped the carriage.
"Master, we've arrived in Jinling City. Shall we go straight into the city?"
Jinling? Is this the modern city of Nanjing? The ancient capital of six dynasties?
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingcheng thought to herself.
Qin Mohan nodded: "Okay! Let's go straight into the city."
"Yes, Master."
After Qinglong finished speaking, the carriage started moving again with a "Giddy up!"
