Chapter 269 Heading to the Border of Youzhou (The End)



As a mother, how could she bear to send her child to a dangerous place?

But she understood even more clearly that in the face of the nation, personal feelings could only be buried deep in her heart. She secretly reminded herself that she couldn't hold her son back and had to let him move forward with peace of mind.

Qin Qianyu stood quietly to the side, her eyes filled with complex emotions. She looked at her younger sister's young yet resolute face, and felt a pang of pain in her heart.

My younger sister is still young and should be living a carefree life in the mansion, but now she has to shoulder such a heavy mission.

But looking at my sister's determined eyes and her indomitable spirit, a sense of pride welled up from the bottom of my heart.

She stepped forward, gently embraced Qin Qianluo, and whispered in her ear, "Sister, be careful in everything you do. I'll be waiting for your safe return."

After the farewell, Qin Qianyu helped Lin Ruoqing turn around slowly and left, turning back every few steps.

Their shadows stretched long in the sunlight, each step conveying a deep sense of longing and loneliness.

Meanwhile, Qin Xiang and Qin Jiyuan had already gone to their respective posts.

In the imperial court, affairs are numerous and complex. Only by being conscientious and diligent in handling every political matter can we provide a solid support for the soldiers at the front and escort Luo'er on her long journey.

Embarking on the long journey to Youzhou, the initial tranquility resembled a paradise, peaceful and serene along the way.

The trip made Qin Qianluo and Lin Fu almost forget the heavy responsibility they were carrying, and it seemed more like a leisurely outing.

The official road beneath our feet was wide and flat, and the carriages and horses moved forward leisurely without any bumps.

Along the official road, lush trees intertwine their branches, weaving a verdant canopy overhead, occasionally casting dappled sunlight and shadows, swaying gently in the breeze.

Along the way, one sees people living in peace and contentment, and busy figures are seen in the fields, hoes rising and falling as they till the fertile land.

Not far away, several oxen were slowly pulling the plow, their mooing echoing across the fields.

Children laughed and played by the roadside, chasing after colorful butterflies.

The carefree laughter was crisp and melodious, adding a touch of liveliness to this idyllic scene.

This peaceful scene, like the warm spring sun or a gentle spring breeze, slowly dispelled the heavy gloom in Qin Qianluo and Lin Fu's hearts.

This gradually relaxed their tense nerves, and the fatigue between their brows and eyes was quietly soothed.

Although the journey was smooth, a journey of a thousand miles cannot be completed overnight.

The two endured wind and rain, traveling day and night, crossing mountains and rivers as they went. Although there were no dangers on the road, they still experienced the hardships of travel.

Finally, a full month later, they arrived at the border of Youzhou. Upon arrival, the two immediately handed over the weapons and equipment they had brought to the general guarding the border.

During the handover, Qin Qianluo and Lin Fu looked solemn and dignified, as every weapon and every suit of armor carried the trust and expectations of the imperial court.

After the handover was completed, the two separated according to plan, each heading to investigate the places that had been on their minds.

Before parting, Qin Qianluo looked at Lin Fu and saw that he looked haggard, and the fatigue from the days of running around was evident in his brows and eyes, which were filled with weariness.

His hair was slightly disheveled, with a few strands of white hair standing out conspicuously at his temples, and his stubble was also somewhat messy.

His skin was dark and rough from the wind, and his lips were chapped and peeling, showing the dryness after a long journey.

A pang of pity welled up in Qin Qianluo's heart. She raised her hand and drew out a cup of spiritual spring water from her spatial storage, handing it to Lin Fu.

Seeing this, Lin Fu did not hesitate at all, raised his hand to take the drink and drank it all in one gulp. After all, he knew in his heart that what King Jinrui Zhao had taken out must be the finest treasure in the world.

Sure enough, as soon as the spiritual spring water entered his throat, a miraculous change occurred.

The heavy body instantly felt light, and the fatigue accumulated from the long journey quickly receded like a tide.

My body felt as if it had been revitalized, and every cell seemed to be jumping for joy.

To his even greater surprise, some of the chronic ailments that had plagued him for a long time seemed to have been gently touched by an invisible hand, and the symptoms were greatly reduced.

The old injury that had been throbbing no longer flared up, and breathing became easier.

Even the insomnia symptoms caused by long-term fatigue seemed to disappear quietly after drinking this cup of spiritual spring water.

Lin Fu could hardly contain his smile; he was in a great mood.

He bowed politely to Qin Qianluo and said, "Thank you, Your Highness Prince Zhao."

Then, leading his men, he left the general's mansion with light steps and headed towards his destination.

Watching Lin Fu's light-footed figure gradually disappear into the distance, Qin Qianlu's lips twitched slightly involuntarily, and then she shook her head helplessly.

In her countless past experiences, no matter what rare and precious items she suddenly produced.

Or perhaps it's the mysterious and unpredictable nature of his actions that makes others tacitly refrain from asking too many questions.

At first, she found it strange, but over time, she got used to this tacit understanding in their relationship.

At this moment, seeing Lin Fu drink the spiritual spring water without hesitation and then leave in a hurry, she naturally didn't have many doubts.
