She stretched out her hand, which was fair and slender, like a jade bamboo shoot emerging from the soil in spring, delicate yet resilient, and landed on the prefect's arm with a gentle yet firm touch.
It seemed to be conveying a silent strength and comfort, steadily helping the prefect to his feet.
She spoke softly, her voice like the gentlest breeze in spring, carrying the vitality and hope of all things reviving, gently brushing against everyone's hearts.
Yet it possesses a reassuring and empowering magnetism that makes one feel as if bathed in a spring breeze, instantly easing their fatigue: "Prefect, please relax."
This time, my brother and sister and I rushed here overnight, accompanied only by a few guards. Although we are a bit short, it is not a problem.
Judging from the dust kicked up by the steam wheels, the army's journey was already set, and within seven days, the heavily armored troops would surely reach the border.
Now, you may all temporarily set aside your burdens and take a short rest. As for the remains of my uncle's family, I will certainly welcome their heroic spirits back to their homeland.
"Under the cold moonlight of this pass, with me standing here with my sword, even a thousand or ten thousand enemy troops are nothing but a mirage, and they will not dare to cross this line."
When everyone learned for certain that only Qin Qianluo, Qin Jiyuan, and Qin Qianyu had arrived, along with their respective personal bodyguards who were always by their side, they were surprised.
Although a wave of surprise inevitably washed over me, it was quickly replaced by a firm belief, and I did not show the slightest sign of discouragement.
After all, the illustrious reputation of King Jinrui Zhao had long resounded throughout the world like a great bell.
Everyone knows that she is decisive, resourceful, and has gathered many extraordinary talents with unparalleled skills.
Even though the number of people in front of them at this moment seemed rather small compared to a vast army.
But everyone was certain that the power she possessed was like a deep and boundless ocean, unfathomable.
It is enough to act as a stabilizing force in this turbulent and ever-changing situation, turning the tide, reversing the situation, and leading everyone out of the predicament and towards the light.
The prefect and the others exchanged knowing glances, and in that instant their eyes met, it seemed as if a thousand words were flowing silently between them.
It is filled with absolute trust in Qin Qianluo, and a tacit understanding that needs no words.
This trust and tacit understanding, like an invisible bond, tightly connects everyone.
Afterwards, they obediently dispersed to rest and recuperate, like warriors about to go into battle, conserving their energy.
Prepare to face the even more severe challenges ahead with a refreshed mindset.
Qin Jiyuan stood quietly in place, gazing at his younger sister Qin Qianluo with gentle and focused eyes.
His eyes were like a deep and tranquil lake, their shimmering light overflowing with a brother's deep care and earnest expectations for his sister.
He shifted his feet slightly, his movements gentle and slow, as if afraid of disturbing the solemn and delicate atmosphere at the moment, and took a step forward slowly.
Then, he spoke softly, his voice like the gentlest breeze in spring, softly brushing past my ear.
With a touch of heartwarming care: "I wonder if my little sister has any good ideas on how to retrieve the remains of my uncle's family."
Though I lack extraordinary talent, I am willing to become the blade in your hand and the shoes beneath your feet.
At this point, Qin Jiyuan paused slightly, a resolute and determined look suddenly flashing in his eyes.
Like a sharp star shining with a cold light in the night sky, it exudes an unwavering and unquestionable determination.
He took a deep breath and continued in detail: "If there is a need to transmit secret messages or procure items."
"Or perhaps it's about infiltrating the enemy camp. Just give the order, little sister, and I'll go through fire and water without hesitation."
Qin Qianluo stood quietly in place. Her brother's words, full of concern and sincerity, were like a warm spring breeze, gently brushing against her heart and stirring up ripples of emotion.
A gentle yet confident smile slowly curved her lips, like a delicate flower quietly blooming under the warm spring sun, spreading across her fair and jade-like face.
That smile seemed to have the power to dispel the gloom, instantly brightening the tense and solemn atmosphere and making the surrounding air seem softer.
She tilted her head slightly, her posture elegant and gentle, and looked up at her elder brother, her eyes like a clear, bottomless pool.
The water ripples with endless gratitude and affection, its shimmering surface revealing deep feelings.
She parted her lips slightly, her voice soft yet clear, like a nightingale singing in a valley, and said with a soft laugh, "Brother, please rest assured, I have my own plans for this matter, there is no need for you to take risks."
She tilted her head slightly, revealing her fair and slender neck, its lines as graceful as a swan's. Her gaze pierced through the gaps in the tent, looking towards the deep and boundless night sky.
The stars twinkled, as if telling endless secrets. She silently calculated the time in her mind.
His expression was focused and resolute, as if he could discern the trajectory of time from the movement of the stars.
After a moment, she slowly withdrew her gaze, her eyes filled with a sense of relief and anticipation, like a traveler waiting for the dawn.
