Chapter 148 Loyalty



"If I hadn't come, do you know what would have happened to you? Remember, being kind to others is being cruel to yourself!"

She could have saved Yinglu, but when she saw that the little boy's dagger could not kill Yinglu, she chose to wait and see. Without this unreal experience, Yinglu would never be able to grow up quickly.

Yinglu lowered her eyes in shame. She was really useless. She couldn't complete the task on the first try!

He stepped forward to stop the bleeding and bandage Yinglu's wound. Shuiyao picked her up and carried her on her back, then jumped out of the window. She threw a fire starter on the curtain, which quickly burned and spread.

Yinglu lay on Shuiyao's back, listening to the woman's strong heartbeat. She closed her eyes and shed a tear.

The clothes on her back were wet by Yinglu's tears. Shui Yao's eyes darkened. She jumped out of the wall, picked up the gold, silver and jewelry that she had stolen from the merchant, and quickly went towards Yiranju.

Putting Yinglu on the bed, Shuiyao turned her back to her coldly and said, "I'll give you one last chance. If you don't want to live this kind of life, I can give you freedom!"

Yinglu was lying on the bed, and just as she was about to speak, Shuiyao interrupted her coldly, "Don't rush to answer. I will be going to Miluo Country. During this period, you will recover here. When I come back, I will hear your answer. This is my last chance to give you a choice!"

As soon as she finished speaking, her bright red skirt fluttered and she disappeared in an instant.

The air was filled with a rich scent of charm.

Yinglu stroked the wound on her back and closed her eyes sadly. She knew that the young lady must be disappointed!

The red figure with fluttering clothes stood on the roof, looking into the sky. In the wide red sleeves, there was a trace of jade-like slender fingertips.

, holding a red rose, so beautiful and tempting.

"Your request seems too harsh, doesn't it?" A man's faint and elegant voice came from behind, as faint as a breeze in the middle of the night, slowly blowing into people's ears.

She knew who it was without turning around. Shui Yao lowered her head, her long black hair flying, revealing a face covered with a red veil. She smiled coldly and did not answer. She just put the rose in her hair, looked back lazily, and said with a sweet smile, "Is it beautiful?"

The man was wearing a flowing blue shirt, his brown hair fluttering in the wind, and his pair of blue eyes were quiet and indifferent. This man was indeed pleasing to the eye.

I don’t know why, but I always have a slight resistance to this man in my heart. Maybe it’s because he is so unfathomable!

Lan Shuiyao is an insecure person. People and things that she cannot see clearly will not arouse her interest, but will only make her uneasy. She is no longer the little girl who is curious about everything!

The man chuckled as her snowy lips did not move, "Beautiful! Such a vulgar thing as a red rose appears quite otherworldly when it is stuck in the lady's hair!"

Shui Yao sneered, her voice still sweet as always, "Red roses are vulgar, bright red, enchanting, but real, and naturally cannot compare to the elegance and nobility of white lotus!"

The man didn't seem to hear the sarcasm in her words, and smiled faintly, "When the lady's eyes are no longer confined to this small world, the lady will naturally like Bai Lian!"

"Oh? From what you said, it seems that you have jumped out of these three realms?" Shui Yao snorted. So what if she is short-sighted? In this world, she only sees money!

"I dare not say. Tianwen wants to jump out of these three realms, but there is no Bodhi tree.

Where did you get involved? It's a sin! "The man whispered, his eyebrows drooped, and his whole body was indifferent and elegant like a gust of wind.

Shui Yao looked back, too lazy to pay attention to him. She hated people who chanted Buddhist mantras all the time. They were obviously not monks, but they pretended to be monks!

Seeing Shuiyao ignoring him, Tianwen said calmly, "Miss, you have great ambitions in your heart, but these ambitions seem too naive to Tianwen. Have you ever thought about the word responsibility?"

Shui Yao was startled and laughed softly, "Responsibility? What responsibility?"

Tianwen said solemnly, "Responsibility to the country, responsibility to the people, and responsibility to all mankind!"

Shui Yao's laughter became louder and louder, thin and sharp, floating in the dark night.

Tian Wen seemed to frown slightly, his blue eyes quietly looking at the woman who was bent over with laughter. Her hair hung down, covering her face, so her expression could not be seen clearly.

After laughing enough, Shui Yao hummed softly and let out a long sigh. The word "responsibility" has never appeared in her dictionary, and she didn't even know how to write the word "responsibility".

Her parents never took responsibility for her. If she hadn't been ruthless and strong enough, she would have been nothing but a pile of bones. Since no one took responsibility for her, why should she take responsibility for others?

"There's no point in talking to each other, Tianwen, I've told you, we're not the same kind of people!" Shuiyao had laughed enough and stretched, "Goodbye, I'm going back to get some beauty sleep!"

After the woman finished speaking, her red dress fluttered, as beautiful as a cloud, and quickly disappeared into the endless dark sky.

Tian Wen stood there in a daze. Although he had prepared himself mentally, he still did not expect such a result. He just said one word: responsibility.

It caused her to laugh so disdainfully, if he told her the whole grand plan...

For the first time, Tian Wen, who was in charge of the overall situation, felt a sense of helplessness. Without her help, the Seven Blooming Linglong could not be opened, and Louxi Kingdom would not be able to restore its independence, not to mention the unification of the five kingdoms in the future!

The man stood on the roof in a daze, with a layer of coldness covering his whole body.

In order to prevent Emperor Miluo and the Queen from becoming suspicious, A Luo stayed obediently in the inn for the past ten days, and only occasionally went to the palace to meet the Emperor and visit the princess.

Nan Han had been ill for several days since she made a fool of herself in public that day, and was depressed the whole time. However, every time she saw A Luo, his eyes were always gentle and calm, and he would tell her about the customs and culture of the country of Miro.

Gradually, her mood improved, and she slowly gave up on Leng Yichen. With the Queen Mother's earnest advice, she finally accepted A Luo.

On this day, A Luote went to the Emperor Yue to express his concern that the princess would not be able to get used to the food of Miro after marrying there. He specially asked the Emperor Yue to give the royal chefs in the palace to a few of him and take them to Miro to comfort the princess who was homesick.

When Emperor Yue heard this, he was overjoyed and immediately agreed to the matter. The news quickly spread throughout Nanyue, and people all praised Prince A Luo for being gentle and considerate, saying that they would marry a man like him.

At the same time, the news of Prince Yongnan's divorce was widely spread, and Prince Yongnan's reputation became worse and worse, even spreading to the other three countries.

At night, the gorgeous moonlight spread across the garden of the inn. The man sat in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, and the shimmering lake color reflected by the moon fell on his handsome face.

"Your Highness, it's getting late.

"Go in and have a rest. The day after tomorrow will be the prince's wedding. Although it is just to welcome the princess, there must be a lot of etiquette. It is better for the prince to have a rest early!" Leng Jiu stood aside and couldn't help but speak.

A Luo pursed his lips lightly, a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, his brown eyes turned slightly, and a faint light gradually appeared, "Leng Jiu, the Leng family is also considered a big family in Miro Country, right? They have been close guards in the palace for generations!"

Leng Jiu was stunned, his heart slightly tightened, and he quickly replied in a low voice, "Yes, the Leng family has been favored by the royal family for generations, and everyone in the Leng family is loyal to the royal family!"

A Luo chuckled softly, and his clear laughter echoed in Leng Jiu's heart but was as heavy as a rock.

Leng Jiu knew what the prince meant. Miss Shui’s matter made the prince unhappy. He also understood what it would mean to him and his family once the prince ascended the throne in the future. But he, Leng Jiu, was devoted to the country, the emperor, and the queen. Was there anything wrong with that?

Looking up at Leng Jiu's solemn expression, A Luo said calmly, "Today, I asked Emperor Yue for a few royal chefs from Nanyue to bring them back to the country, so that the princess won't get used to living in an unfamiliar place!

Leng Jiu's heart was moved. When did the prince care so much about the princess? And why did he have to explain it to him in particular?

Could it be... His heart tightened and he quickly raised his eyes. He saw that although the prince was smiling faintly, his pupils were cold under the moonlight, without a trace of smile.

"Your Highness, you are really caring for the princess. Don't worry, Leng Jiu knows what to do! Please believe that Leng Jiu is your bodyguard, and you are the future emperor. As long as you are willing to marry the princess, Leng Jiu knows his identity for the rest!"
