The scene changed. Gu Yunru stretched early in the morning, washed up, and came out of the tent. When she saw General Huang Zijun, she smiled at him.

"General, you're up so early to practice Kung Fu."

Huang Zijun saw someone behind him, put away his spear, bowed to her and said, "Hello, Miss Gu."

"No need to call me that, um, just call me by my name." Gu Yunru didn't care about these etiquettes, which was something the soldiers all knew.

"That won't do. The prince has given instructions." Huang Zijun was still very concerned about these details. Qingxing trotted over, handed him a handkerchief and said, "General, you've sweated a lot. Wipe it off."

Gu Yunru looked at Qingxing's petite back. No wonder she didn't see her early in the morning. It turned out that she was here.

"Thank you very much."

He has a pair of indifferent tiger eyes, his body is straight, and his posture is even more heroic when he holds the spear. It seems that Qingxing is completely fascinated by this General Huang.

"Miss, you are here. Miss Shuying has been taken back to the tent."

"Are you back?" Gu Yunru looked at her in surprise. Qingxing was so busy looking at handsome men that she didn't report to her earlier.

"kindness."

Gu Yunru rushed to Shuying's tent and heard a conversation coming from inside before she entered. It was between Rong Zhen and Shuying.

"Your Highness, please don't blame Miss Gu. I asked her to bring me here. Miss Gu helped me a lot along the way. Your Highness, please don't blame her."

Shuying said this, coughed a few times, looked at Rong Zhen in front of her, and showed her most beautiful smile.

"Don't say anything yet. I'll ask the doctor to take a look at you."

When Rong Zhen brought her back, she looked very sick.

"No need, Your Majesty. I admire Miss Gu's medical skills. She has been treating me for such a long time. I am so happy. I am really surprised and happy to see Your Majesty. I thought I would never see Your Majesty again in this life. God has eyes and did not treat me so harshly."

When Gu Yunru heard these words, she felt complicated and conflicted. She withdrew her hand and turned around to find that Xiao Su Li was staring at her with her eyes as black and crystal as pebbles.

This look was creepy. Gu Yunru shrank her neck and her scalp tingled. "Why are you here?" Xiao Su Li didn't say anything, but opened the tent and walked in.

She originally wanted to call out to this little Su Li, as she was talking and it would be inappropriate to disturb her so abruptly. However, before she could call out to her, the person had already walked in.

"Your Majesty, the team can set off now. There will be a sandstorm tomorrow, so we must leave today."

Little Su Li is simply the weather forecast in the desert. Gu Yunru was stunned as she listened at the door. She observed the stars last night and thought the sky should be clear. Will there be a sandstorm tomorrow?

"knew."

Rong Zhen was in a dilemma. If he sent Shuying back first in her current condition, she would be exhausted from the long journey and might not be able to get treatment. He could only make up his mind temporarily and take them all on the road.

Everyone packed up in a hurry and started on their way. Gu Yunru was riding on the horse, feeling dizzy from the scorching sun.

"How did you run so much when you're in such poor health?" Rong Zhen appeared beside her out of nowhere and led the team forward with her.

Gu Yunru covered her forehead with her hands to block the sunlight, looking at the endless desert, feeling extremely disappointed.

"Of course it's to fulfill someone's wish. Why don't you go with your lover?"

"She is not my lover. I just treat her as my sister." Rong Zhen's calm expression exuded a confident aura. Gu Yunru looked him straight in the eye. "Just make it up. I don't believe you showed no mercy in the desert a few years ago."

Shuying had grown into an even more attractive and charming person a few years ago, and he didn't believe that Rong Zhen would not fall in love with her.

If he didn't give her an answer that satisfied her, she secretly made up her mind to find a scholar to marry as soon as she returned. There would be nothing wrong with living a simple life.

"She and I really didn't..." Rong Zhen looked at her for a moment, their eyes fixed on each other.

Looking at his determined expression, he should be telling the truth.

Gu Yunru smiled and said, "I was just joking with you, why take it so seriously? It's fine if it's there or not, it has nothing to do with me."

He breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that her words today were a little sour. Although he didn't know why, he followed her obediently. Sure enough, he saw a storm rolling up not far away, as if a tornado was very close. It was the first time that Gu Yunru saw a tornado with her own eyes. She didn't expect that she would actually witness this rare natural phenomenon.

"A sandstorm is coming!"

At this time, someone shouted in the army, which was enough to make everyone panic, but Rong Zhen said to them calmly: "Don't panic, it won't come over."

He had fought for many years and had seen all kinds of strange scenes. It was just a small tornado, so he didn't need to take it seriously. Gu Yunru swallowed her saliva and shook the water bottle on her waist. She drank all the water without knowing when. Rong Zhen threw the water bottle on his waist into her arms and said, "Drink it."

"What about you?"

"I'm not thirsty."

Gu Yunru observed his expression and spoke lightly, but her lips were almost chapped.

"Then I'm not thirsty either." Gu Yunru didn't want to be a burden to them, so she returned the kettle to him. Rong Zhen looked at Gu Yunru in confusion. This girl was really stubborn.

After traveling for who knows how long, even the horses fainted in the desert. Coupled with the scorching sun here, people felt deep despair from the bottom of their hearts, and the water they brought with them was not enough.

"There is a small thorn forest ahead. Let's take a rest first. We can find some water to drink here." Gu Yunru said to the people behind him, but no one dared to stop. They all took into account the intimidation of the prince.

"Do as she says." Rong Zhen was not a heartless person. Seeing that everyone was thirsty, he asked them to rest nearby.

Gu Yunru taught everyone how to filter out the mud and sand, and everyone's thirst was temporarily quenched. Rong Zhen shook the kettle at his waist, but for some reason, he didn't drink a single sip, and the water evaporated inexplicably.

"Here, have some water." Gu Yunru came up to him and handed him the water bottle from her waist. The bottle was already full, enough to sustain them until tomorrow. It would not be too late to set off again after the sandstorm was over.

"How did you come up with this method? Who taught you?" Rong Zhen was curious. She didn't look like a wild girl born on a farm at all.
