Fu Xiaoguan ran out.
Of course, all the officials of Daxia also ran out.
The old village chief was confused. He looked at Henry helplessly, "Great Lord, don't you want Alia?"
“…I don’t know either.”
"Please ask the messenger to help me ask. Alia is the most beautiful girl in the village, like a pearl in the ocean. I sincerely offer Alia to this lord of Daxia, hoping that he will bless Shangluo. If he refuses to accept her... according to our customs, it means that Alia is polluted, and she, she can only die!"
Henry was very depressed, so he also went out, but saw Fu Xiaoguan and a group of people entering the largest tent in the middle.
He followed him in, and before Fu Xiaoguan even sat down, he told Fu Xiaoguan what Asuda had said.
Fu Xiaoguan was stunned. "Tell him that Alia is innocent. I will grant her freedom in the name of Daxia!"
Henry ran out again, and He Sandao asked curiously, "Boss, what are you talking about?"
"It's time for work. Philip still has several thousand men under his command, and he's attacking Shangluo City. Shangluo City is three hundred miles away from here. Send two thousand men to march overnight to destroy Philip's troops and capture him alive. We'll set off tomorrow for Shangluo City!"
"Okay, I'll go!"
"Why don't you go? You take the large army to protect His Majesty, and I'll take care of this matter!" After saying this, Tang Qianjun turned around and walked out of the tent. A moment later, the sound of neat footsteps was heard. Two thousand fully armed Marines, led by several prisoners, rushed towards Shangluo City.
Only then did Fu Xiaoguan sit down, and Liu Jin accompanied him and made a pot of tea.
"Okay, everyone has been at sea for more than a month, let's go and rest early."
Everyone dispersed, only Ning Siyan and Bei Wangchuan stayed to protect Fu Xiaoguan's safety. Under the Queen Mother's instructions, His Majesty could not leave their sight.
Fu Xiaoguan was used to it, so he simply pulled the two of them aside to start a chat.
"Where did your father, Ning Fatian, go?"
Ning Siyan curled her lips. "Aren't you encouraging the orderly development of the martial arts world? He went off to found a sword sect, saying he wanted to promote swordsmanship."
Fu Xiaoguan immediately became interested. "That's great. Where did he found the Sword Sect?"
"Lishan is in Lizhou, the southern seven states."
"How many disciples have you recruited?"
"I don't know how he's doing now. I received a letter from him before I left... and he was the only one there."
This is really difficult for this Saint-level master.
Fu Xiaoguan laughed and looked at Bei Wangchuan again, "Where is You Beidou?"
"He also founded a sect on Luomei Mountain. However... I'm afraid it was because of Jia Nanxing. He dug up all the plum trees on Luomei Mountain and planted peach trees instead. The name of the island was changed to Peach Blossom Island. He called himself the island master and founded the Southern Fist School. He didn't teach the swordsmanship he learned himself, but the boxing style that Jia Nanxing excelled in."
Fu Xiaoguan was slightly surprised. You Beidou also created a Peach Blossom Island Master. Well, it was just a coincidence.
"Would you like to try to learn an archery technique in the future? This archery technique can't be lost."
“…We’ll see later.”
Before Bei Wangchuan finished speaking, Henry walked in again, this time with the girl named Alia.
But the girl had just taken a bath, her hair was still wet, her face had become very white, she was wearing a brand new plain jacket and a silver necklace around her neck.
Maybe it was because of the cold weather or because she knew her future fate, but her body was shaking a little and her face looked very nervous.
"Sir, Asuda said... according to the rules of their tribe, gifts given out cannot be taken back, otherwise it would bring disaster to the village... I have no choice but to bring Alia to you, sir. Asuda's meaning is that from now on, Alia's fate is in your hands. If you want her to die, she will die. If you want her to live, she will live."
Fu Xiaoguan was depressed, but... this girl did look quite pretty after taking care of herself.
She couldn't be allowed to die. "Tell her to come over and warm herself by the fire. It's so cold, don't let her freeze to death."
Henry finally breathed a sigh of relief. Alia was really a beauty after dressing up. It seemed that she had dressed in such a sloppy manner to protect herself from being violated by Frankie's soldiers.
Alia sat timidly beside Fu Xiaoguan. The charcoal fire in the stove was burning fiercely. She felt the warmth and seemed to feel the presence of Fu Xiaoguan.
This aura made her panic. According to the old lady, she was about to sacrifice herself for this great man from the Eastern Divine Kingdom.
"Alia, if you serve that master well, you can save Shangluo. You are sacrificing yourself for Shangluo. Your name will be engraved in the temple of Shangluo, and your soul will enter heaven in the future."
This is a sacred thing.
But this adult had refused before.
Does he, does he not like me?
When Alia was feeling anxious, Fu Xiaoguan handed her a cup of hot tea.
She took the teacup and drank it. It was a taste she had never tasted before, a little bitter, and then a little sweet. She thought that this was probably the holy water of the Eastern Divine Kingdom.
Fu Xiaoguan looked up at Henry and said, "You should go and rest too. Tomorrow morning, follow me to Shangluo City."
"I obey your command!"
Henry turned and just took a step when Alia hurriedly called out to him, "Sir Messenger, please ask this lord when, when can we send troops to rescue Shang Luo?"
Henry relayed this, and Fu Xiaoguan laughed, "Tell her that the heavenly soldiers have already set out, and by the time we reach Shangluo City, the enemy will have been wiped out!"
Henry repeated Fu Xiaoguan's words again. Alia was overjoyed. She raised her head bravely, staring at Fu Xiaoguan with her clear eyes. Then she crossed her hands in front of her chest, leaned over and said something.
"She said...she came to repay the master's kindness. From now on, she belongs to the master."
Fu Xiaoguan did not refuse. Some things are needs in themselves.
He was only 27 years old, and this time none of his wives came with him. He originally wanted to take Fujiwara no Kiyoshi with him, but the child was too young. If Fujiwara no Kiyoshi left, Fu would accidentally run out of food, which would definitely not work.
"I understand. Go ahead."
This time Henry left, and Alia didn't say anything else. Fu Xiaoguan helped her up, pointed at her hair and then at the fire. Alia smiled shyly, roasted her hair by the fire, listened to Fu Xiaoguan and the other two people talking in words she couldn't understand, and quietly waited for what would happen next.
"Or... Your Majesty, please rest."
Bei Wangchuan winked at Ning Siyan, and the two of them stood up and left, guarding outside the tent.
Liu Jin also stood up, "Your Majesty, I need a body search!"
Fu Xiaoguan waved his hand. "Is there anyone who would harm me in this place? Make the bed!"
"I obey your order!"
