Having resolved the matter of Li Yuan, Hua Cai left the tent with a smile, in a good mood, ready to go for a stroll and enjoy the breeze.
The mission is now halfway complete, and Jin Yin, Jin Baozhu, and even the secret guards who have followed the Jin family for many years are all unharmed.
Jin Yin has now established a firm foothold in Yue. Having learned from the lessons of Li, Hua Cai is no longer like Jin Baozhu before, recklessly taking advantage of the Jin family to satisfy Li Zheng's ambitions. Even if the current Yue emperor suddenly has some designs on the Jin family, the Jin family will not be wiped out.
The remaining task is to take revenge on the male and female protagonists, as well as on Li Zheng, the direct culprit who caused the destruction of the Kim family.
Li Yuan is already in her hands, and Li Zheng will likely come to her on his own soon. It seems that only Zhao Qinglian is left.
But where is Zhao Qinglian? Could she be staying in the Qiu Kingdom's palace?
Hua Cai had a headache just thinking about Zhao Qinglian's uncle who suddenly appeared.
Even though the person is dead, it's not difficult to bring someone out of the Qiu Kingdom's palace.
Moreover, with the Qiu Kingdom as a backing, even if the female protagonist is in dire straits, she will have a place to seek refuge, so how could she possibly suffer?
"System, system?" I called out to myself twice, but there was no answer.
Where was this guy when it mattered most?
Hua Cai frowned. Although the system was sometimes very unreliable, it had never failed to be activated before.
Um?
Hua Cai, who was deep in thought, suddenly felt a chill. She lightly touched the ground with her toes and darted diagonally forward, while simultaneously striking behind her with her palm.
With a crash, the tent behind her collapsed. Hua Cai turned around and saw that the whole world was enveloped in a sky full of sword light.
"Yue Chen!" Hua Cai was furious. She clenched her fists and concentrated her energy at her fingertips. The energy struck Yue Chen's longsword as if it were a tangible object, producing a clanging sound.
Yue Chen was instantly at a disadvantage, and his long sword was knocked to the ground by Hua Cai's claw with a soft sound.
Nine Yin White Bone Claw.
Yue Chen stared blankly at the long sword on the ground, recalling the words he had overheard outside the tent, and felt a pang of unease.
After three years of constant fighting, this was the first time she had used the Nine Yin White Bone Claw on herself.
They always went easy on me before, but why not now?
Is it because you were about to meet that man and were in a good mood, but were suddenly disturbed by this ungrateful person, that you got angry?
"You know, I've liked leaving politics for so many years."
Recalling what he had just heard, Yue Chen suddenly felt extremely unwilling. What was there to miss about someone like Li Zheng?
"Are you crazy? When will this end? What time is it? Why are you still here?" Hua Cai glared at Yue Chen, feeling annoyed.
This guy is going too far. This is a military camp, and she is the commander-in-chief. How dare he launch a sneak attack without regard for the occasion?
Also, what's with that expression? It looks like she's the one who was assassinated. Why are you making that wronged look on your face?
Hua Cai rolled her eyes speechlessly and was about to leave.
This person is simply unreasonable.
"So you really can't see me?" Yue Chen's calm voice rang out from behind. "If it weren't for my sword strike, would you have never been able to see me?"
Yue Chen suddenly felt a little sad.
She spoke so sadly about her love for the man from Li Kingdom in the tent, her face still wet with tears. But just to see him, she smiled so happily. She didn't even glance at him, who was standing in the most conspicuous place outside the tent, and walked right past him without looking at him.
Yue Chen stood behind her, his back to the firelight at the tent entrance, so her expression was not visible. Hua Cai turned her head and only saw the figure standing there quietly.
But what does this mean? He's been trying to kill me all these years, just so I can see him?
What kind of utter nonsense is this?
"If there's nothing else, I'll head back to rest now; it's getting late." Not wanting to think about it, Hua Cai glanced at Yue Chen for a moment, then turned and walked towards her tent, leaving him standing there for a long, long time.
Meanwhile, in the large tent where Li Yuan was staying...
"Help!" A muffled voice rang out. Li Yuan was trapped under the pile of collapsed tents, struggling to breathe.
Hua Cai had just emerged from the tent when his backhand strike shattered it into ruins. Fortunately, military tents weren't heavy, and even though the entire tent collapsed on Li Yuan, he wasn't seriously injured. However—
Cough cough, it's just a broken leg.
When Hua Cai heard the news the next day, she almost spat out her morning tea.
"The male lead's leg is broken? Can it be healed?" Hua Cai stared in disbelief at the military doctor who came to report the situation.
Although he didn't know who the male lead was, the military doctor understood that his general was asking about the high-ranking prisoner. He quickly reported the whole story in detail, which made Hua Cai want to burst out laughing even more.
The tent of the centurion where Li Yuan was imprisoned was relatively large, so the supporting frame was relatively heavy. Of course, it was not heavy enough to break Li Yuan's leg, but it was unclear which tendon in his leg was being crushed, making it temporarily unable to exert any force.
Of course, Li Yuan was aware of this situation, but didn't pay much attention to it. However, he was secretly pleased that he no longer had to sleep tied up.
So, after the shock, Li Yuan, who had been sleeping quite comfortably, completely forgot about his leg being crushed when he got up in the middle of the night. When he got out of bed, his leg suddenly gave way, and he rolled off the bed, breaking his leg in the process.
this--
Hua Cai looked at the military doctor's face, which was trying hard to suppress a laugh, and her lips twitched. She almost couldn't help but burst out laughing on the spot.
This protagonist's halo is definitely fake; he's truly the worst male lead I've ever mentored.
Hua Cai once again complained about the male lead, Li Yuan, who was incredibly unsatisfactory, and decisively ignored the fact that she had only completed her second task.
"Ahem, well—since it's incurable, let's not try to cure it. Let's just send a rag over to Prince Xiaoyao." Hua Cai took a deep breath before finally managing to hold back her laughter.
rag?
Furthermore, who said it's incurable? General, isn't your intention a bit too obvious?
The military doctor looked at the person on the table with a puzzled expression.
Yue Chen looked down intently at the bowl in front of him, as if trying to see something extraordinary; Shi Zhong stared at the bowl of porridge in his hand with a bitter and resentful expression, shoveling it into his mouth as if drinking poison. His tragic appearance made even the military doctor, who was used to seeing life and death, feel extremely sad; and then there was his own general—well, this one was more normal.
But, rags and such—
