Log dragged his bloody body into a hidden cave. He had to wait for someone to find him.
After an unknown amount of time, Log, who was in a semi-comatose state, vaguely heard a call.
They are his men, and Luo Cheng.
Gradually, the sound got closer, Log's eyelids became heavier, and he was dying.
Just when he was about to fall into a coma, he saw his men and Luo Cheng running towards him.
Why?
We are not...
Loge closed his eyes, his head drooped, and he fell into complete coma.
On the other hand, after Jiang Yueyang and his friends happily finished their reunion dinner, Lu Yunting was called away alone by Minister Jiang.
At the stone table outside the study, as soon as Minister Jiang sat down, he poured a full bowl of wine for Lu Yunting.
"drink!"
Lu Yunting lowered his eyes and glanced at the wine in the bowl, then reached out and drank it in one gulp.
Minister Jiang continued to pour and Lu Yunting continued to drink.
It was not until Lu Yunting drank five bowls of wine that Minister Jiang said, "I didn't realize you can drink quite well."
Lu Yunting put down the wine bowl, "It's bitterly cold in the borderland, drinking can warm the body. If you drink more, your alcohol tolerance will increase."
Hearing this, a trace of heartache flashed in Minister Jiang's eyes.
Yes... this child went to the frontier, a cold and harsh place, at a very young age, and stayed in the military camp all day long, so it would be hard for him not to drink.
Lu Yunting poured a bowl of wine for Minister Jiang, "Uncle Jiang, Ziyue came here today because he wants to ask for your consent for something."
Minister Jiang knew what was going on as soon as he heard it. He picked up the wine bowl and took a sip of wine, and his eyes immediately lit up.
"Is this... the wine from Zuixianju?"
Lu Yunting nodded, "Zuixianju is opened by a friend of mine. Uncle Jiang can go to him anytime he wants to drink."
"Don't try to bribe me with this wine." Minister Jiang drank the wine in the bowl. "I won't take it."
Lu Yunting filled Minister Jiang's glass with wine, then held up the wine bowl with both hands and said respectfully, "Please help me, Uncle Jiang."
Minister Jiang did not reach out to take it, but said seriously: "Yangyang is my precious daughter, I just want her to live a carefree, peaceful and happy life. Do you think you can do this?"
"I can!" Lu Yunting answered firmly.
"What do you have to say yes?" Minister Jiang said in a deep voice, "Yangyang is very powerful, and you have a large army.
The combination of the two, not to mention that Your Majesty is suspicious, even I can't help but suspect that my daughter might be with you..."
After hearing these words, Lu Yunting slowly put down the wine bowl, then took out a cloud-patterned jade pendant from his waist and placed it on the table.
Minister Jiang felt that the jade pendant was the military token of the Lu family army, and he sighed heavily, "Aren't you afraid that you will not survive after handing over the military power of the Lu family army?"
"I believe that your majesty is a wise ruler." Lu Yunting paused, "If that day really comes, which side will Uncle Jiang stand on?"
He doesn't want to rebel, but if he is forced to do so...
Minister Jiang stared at him. Was Lu Yunting trying to say that even if he handed over the Lu family army's military power, he would still be able to fight?
How powerful has he become over the years?
Lu Yunting raised the wine bowl to Minister Jiang again, "I will protect her. She is not a coward."
After a moment, Minister Jiang took the wine and said, "Forget it. It's because that girl has chosen you."
"Thank you, Uncle Jiang, for your help." There was obvious joy in Lu Yunting's voice.
"Don't be too happy, kid." Minister Jiang put down his wine bowl, "I just agreed to let you get engaged first. As for the marriage, I have to wait and see."
"Yes, I will definitely behave well."
"I suddenly remembered something." Minister Jiang stared at Lu Yunting, "On Yangyang's 100th day, you secretly kissed her when we weren't paying attention. Tell me, have you been eyeing my daughter for a long time?"
"Uncle Jiang...Uncle Jiang, is there such a thing?" Lu Yunting was stared at so hard that sweat broke out on his forehead. "I don't remember it. But I think I thought Yangyang was cute at that time."
He was only three years old at that time and didn't understand anything. If there really was such a thing as a stolen kiss, it could only be because Yangyang was too cute.
Minister Jiang just wanted to scare him on purpose, he didn't really think that he had any such thoughts at that time.
How old was he then? His hair hadn't even grown out yet!
"By the way, can I really drink as much wine as I want from Zuixianju?" asked Minister Jiang.
"cannot."
Minister Jiang jumped up and down, "You kid actually..."
"Yangyang said!" Lu Yunting interrupted him suddenly, "A little drinking can make you happy, but a lot of drinking can hurt your body. As long as Uncle Jiang controls the amount, you can drink the wine at Zuixianju anytime."
After hearing this, Minister Jiang let him go.
"I remember you brought seven jars of wine today. How about the remaining four? Take them out and drink them together."
"Uncle Jiang, three jars of wine is already excessive."
"What do you mean by super? You just drank almost a whole jar of wine."
"That's also Jiang..."
"Stop talking nonsense, get someone to bring the wine, and pour it! Let's see who will fall down first tonight."
“…”
＊＊＊
The next day, in the inn, in the yard of Logeluchuang.
Log, who was lying on the bed seriously injured, moved his eyelids and then slowly opened his eyes.
The person guarding the bed immediately asked, "Master, are you awake?"
"Help me... up."
Loge's men immediately helped him up and said, "Master, you are seriously injured. You can't use force for a while."
"How is Luo Cheng?"
"Prince Luo Cheng was also seriously injured and is now resting in the next room. Do you want me to go and call him over?"
Loge shook his head, "No, pour me a glass of water."
Soon, his men brought him a glass of water. After drinking the water, he closed his eyes and thought.
According to that person, I had only been in Beijing for two days when the assassination mission was passed from Nanzhao to the capital.
In other words, the news of my presence in Daxia was passed back by the people in the team. Moreover, it was after I dealt with the people that Luo Lie had arranged in the team.
Was it my people who betrayed me, or was it Luo Cheng who betrayed me?
What I am most reluctant to believe is often the truth. This sentence is undoubtedly directed at Lu Cheng.
What does it mean to ask me to pay attention to my body? My body...Log suddenly thought of something, could it be...
No...what that person said may not be true.
The assassination last night might have been a trap set to alienate me and Luo Cheng.
But... my intuition tells me that what that person said is true.
The only solution now is to find out everything clearly or meet that person again to ask him clearly.
Luo Ge opened his eyes, "Duan Yi, go check out the killer organization "Xue Sha Pavilion". Don't let Luo Cheng know about this.
Duan Yi was very surprised to hear this, but he still responded.
After a moment's silence, Loge said with difficulty: "Let Wangu secretly watch Luo Cheng's every move."
"yes."
