In the next few days, Tuoba Ling and Qin Yanning lived in peace.
Every day, when it was time for a meal break, Qin Yanning would get off the car and take a walk. After a few days, the soldiers in the desert were no longer surprised by the princess's strange behavior. After seeing a different side of Qin Yanning, Yuzhu and Yutang had fewer doubts about her words, but Qin Yanning understood that it would take time for them to truly believe in her.
Tuoba Ling has been busy studying Qin Yanning's drawings with his craftsmen these days. The more he studies the drawings, the more curious he becomes about Qin Yanning.
Princess Pingkang seems to have no worries except what to eat every day, but she said that she would find a way to get rid of Tuoba Xiao. Is it really as simple as rescuing Concubine Lin?
The team walked in the vast desert for six days before reaching the transit station in the desert.
Although Qin Yanning was not a picky person, she was still happy after hearing the news. After all, the weather was hot and she had been sleeping in a tent these days. It was difficult for her to even take a shower.
These past few days, Yuzhu and Yutang had been boiling hot water for her to take a thorough shower. Now that she had arrived at the post station, she could finally take a clean bath.
As soon as Qin Yanning arrived at the post station, he went to the rest room. Ming Erer and the others were already used to their princess's behavior, so they made some porridge and side dishes and asked Yuzhu Yutang to send them up. Qin Yanning ordered some hot soup to soak in. Feeling the long-lost relaxation, Qin Yanning smiled a little more.
It gets dark late in the desert. After taking a bath, Qin Yanning lay on the bed and read a storybook for a long time before getting ready to rest. Seeing that their princess was resting, Yuzhu and Yutang left a bedside lamp on and retreated.
Qin Yanning was lying on the bed, wondering when Tuoba Ling would discover that something was missing from the blueprint he gave him. Just as Qin Yanning was thinking about it, he heard a noise from the window.
Qin Yanning's mind was filled with alarm and she grabbed the dagger under her pillow. She had been eating and drinking well these days, and the original owner's thin arms had become a little fleshy. With the skills she learned in several other small worlds, she was still able to protect herself.
A figure passed by outside the bed curtains. Qin Yanning suddenly stood up and stabbed forward. The black figure grabbed Qin Yanning's hand, but was still stabbed in the arm by Qin Yanning.
The person who came gasped in pain, and Qin Yanning realized that it was Tuoba Ling.
Qin Yanning put his hand and dagger back somewhat embarrassedly. Tuoba Ling looked at the bloodstain on his arm and looked at Qin Yanning calmly.
"Princess Pingkang's kung fu doesn't look like something that the Dazhang Palace would teach."
Qin Yanning could hear Tuoba Ling's sarcastic tone, and she retorted unyieldingly, "Come to the bedroom of your father's future concubine in the middle of the night, it's not something the Great Desert Royal Family would teach Your Highness."
Seeing Qin Yanning's sharp words, Tuoba Ling's mouth curled up slightly. He reached out and took the white handkerchief from Qin Yanning's hand. After making sure that there was no identification embroidered on it, he tied up his wound with one hand.
"There's really no such rule in the desert, but I'm here to find my not-so-honest ally."
As Tuoba Ling spoke, he took out the drawing that Qin Yanning had given him before, as well as a stack of other drawings from his pocket. When Qin Yanning saw the messy calculations on the other drawings, he realized that Tuoba Ling must have discovered that he had omitted some content.
Qin Yanning stood on tiptoe and pulled Tuoba Ling's arm in front of him, untying the knot that he had tied haphazardly.
The people of the desert like strong liquor. They are staying at the inn tonight, and the people at the inn also gave Qin Yanning a pot of strong liquor from the desert. Qin Yanning didn't drink it, as it was just right for him to disinfect Tuoba Ling.
Fortunately, she did not tamper with the blade of the dagger, otherwise she would have to be busy detoxifying Tuoba Ling in the middle of the night.
Qin Yanning opened the lid of the wine flask and took a sniff. The smell of strong liquor made her feel a little dizzy. She picked up the wine flask and poured it on the wound on Tuoba Ling's arm. "It's so hot, if you don't disinfect it, it will fester. Your Highness, please be patient and don't make any noise, so as not to disturb the guards."
Qin Yanning's movements were not gentle at all, as if he wanted to take revenge on Tuoba Ling for his rudeness in coming tonight without notice. However, Tuoba Ling still had a stern face and let Qin Yanning treat his wounds.
It was just that the lights were dim at night, and if Qin Yanning looked carefully, he would have noticed that there was a slight red tint around Tuoba Ling's ears.
Seeing that Tuoba Ling was unmoved, Qin Yanning sat back on the bed unhappily. A very tall man stood in front of her. The dim light cast his shadow on Qin Yanning. Qin Yanning stared at Tuoba Ling and thought in her heart, this man has a very thin waist, but the muscles on his arms are also very solid. If she had known this, she would have taken the opportunity to touch him when he was bandaging the wound.
Tuoba Ling felt a little anxious when Qin Yanning looked at him. He leaned closer to Qin Yanning and asked, "Don't I have anything to say about my dishonest ally?"
The man was so close that Qin Yanning could still feel the heat of his breath. Qin Yanning stared at the man's slightly green eyes and chuckled softly, "If I hadn't held back, how could His Highness have come to me on his own initiative? I just didn't expect His Highness to be so anxious as to come to me so late at night."
Tuoba Ling's breath caught in his throat when he heard this. Even the God of War, who was always calm and composed on the battlefield, panicked for a moment. "Does Your Highness know what you are saying?"
Seeing Tuoba Ling like this, Qin Yanning felt like teasing him. "Your Highness, do you think I would be willing to marry an old man? If I remember correctly, according to the tradition of the desert, the new Khan can inherit everything from the previous Khan, including his wife."
