It was Qingfeng. Qingfeng was patrolling nearby. He happened to hear the noise and came over to take a look. He found that the future princess had appeared here out of nowhere. He showed up in time and saved their lives. Zi Luo was ambushed by him, but she quickly reacted and decided to kill these two people no matter what.
Gu Yunru held Qingxing's hand and ran towards the tent. Finally, a few soldiers saw them. Gu Yunru waved at them with sweat on her forehead, and then she tripped over something and rolled down.
When Gu Yunru woke up, she saw Rong Zhen's brutally handsome face. She thought she was dreaming, so she slowly closed her eyes again. Rong Zhen felt relieved when he saw her wake up.
"Your Majesty!"
General Huang Zijun came in to report the news. Rong Zhen raised his hand, motioning him to go outside the tent and walk outside.
At this time, the night was as dark as ink. Huang Zijun lowered his voice and said with a folded hand, "General, the female assassin is gone.
Qingfeng fought with her for a while and was seriously injured. "
"She was seriously injured. Is the female assassin really that skilled?" Rong Zhen became suspicious.
Huang Zijun lowered his head and frowned as he said, "I haven't seen what the female assassin looks like, but I heard from Qingfeng that the assassin is very skilled and is after the princess' life."
The female assassin was very skilled. If it was really as Qingfeng said, then he really had to be on guard. He asked Huang Zijun to take people to check around to see if there were any suspicious people. He then entered the tent and looked at Gu Yunru who had already woken up. He walked up to her with a worried look on his face and asked, "Why did you come here?"
"Because... By the way, go and save Shuying." Gu Yunru explained to him how she came here and how she encountered the sand bandits along the way. It was really thrilling to talk about it.
This was the first time she encountered such a difficult situation since she came here. But she felt relieved to see him again.
Seeing that Rong Zhen seemed to be blaming her, Gu Yunru lowered her head in grievance and said, "I know I shouldn't have taken her out of the palace without permission, but her last request was to see you.
And she only has seven days left.”
They had already wasted a lot of time on their journey, and Gu Yunru had been counting the days. It had been seven whole days. If she wasn't rescued from the sand bandits, perhaps the two of them wouldn't even be able to see each other for the last time.
Rong Zhen's stern face softened a lot. Seeing her talking nonstop about Shuying, he couldn't help but ask, "Did you come here for nothing else except for her?"
"Yes, let's enjoy the scenery by the way. The scenery here is really nice and there is no pollution." Gu Yunru laughed heartlessly, as if he had already forgotten the shadow of the killer.
"You." Rong Zhen poked her head. Gu Yunru felt that the atmosphere was a little weird. The distance between her and Rong Zhen seemed to have been inadvertently shortened. This was something she had never expected.
"Hurry up and send someone to rescue her from the sand bandits!" Gu Yunru remembered the important matter. She had disappeared for two days and he didn't know how she was doing now. There would be a glimmer of hope only if he quickly rescued her from the sand bandits. Poor Xiuyun died at the hands of that assassin and he didn't know the identity of that woman.
"Don't worry about this matter, I will take care of it." Rong Zhen tucked the quilt for her, and there was a little more tenderness in his eyes.
Just as he reached out to tuck the quilt for her, something fell from his sleeve. Gu Yunru touched it and found it was her earring. She still remembered this dazzling pearl clearly.
"Okay, you pervert, you actually stole my earrings." Gu Yunru liked the color of this pearl the most, so she asked Qingxing to have someone make a pair of earrings for her. She didn't know why it fell from the palace that day, and she couldn't find it after searching for several days. She didn't expect it to be here with him.
"I didn't steal it. I found it." Rong Zhen opened his mouth to refute, but he couldn't stop the guilt in his eyes.
"Forget it. The item has been returned to its original owner. You can leave now." Gu Yunru happily held the pearl in her palm.
The next morning, Rong Zhen went to Kedar to inquire about the sand bandits. Kedar assured him that he would bring back the woman he mentioned within two days.
Qing Xing walked into the tent with the food. Seeing that the young lady had recovered a lot of spirit, she said with a smile: "Young lady, His Highness stayed in your tent for a long time last night. I didn't dare to disturb you."
Gu Yunru coughed a few times with a serious face, "Don't talk nonsense, I just told him how we came to find him. Fortunately, he didn't get angry. I thought he would order someone to cut me into pieces."
"The King Zhao today is not the King Zhao of the past. The way King Zhao looks at you is full of tenderness. He will never hurt you." Qing Xing saw all of this, put the food on the table, and helped her sit up.
"You're the only one who talks too much!" Gu Yunru said coquettishly, raising her jade finger and gently scratching the tip of her nose.
When we came out of the tent, we didn't expect to see a lush forest to the south. No wonder so many soldiers could be stationed here.
Seeing a delicate and petite girl, he couldn't help but look at Qingxing beside him and asked, "Who is this? How come I have never seen her before?"

It is not allowed to hide women in the army, unless they have a special identity. But seeing that the little girl is so young and has such a naive look, she shouldn't have that kind of identity.
"I asked General Huang last night. This is an orphan that the prince has taken in."
"Is it so magical that I can find an orphan in the desert?" Gu Yunru's face was full of shock. He looked at little Su Li not far away and waved at her.
"Come here, little girl." Although Gu Yunru was only three years older than her, she still felt very close to the little girl when she saw her face full of collagen.
"Who are you?" Little Su Li looked at her and asked.
"How dare you! This is the future Princess Zhao, why don't you pay your respects to her!" Qingxing was acting like a bully in front of outsiders again. Gu Yunru gave her a look, saying that it was wrong to scare a child like this.
"Hey, don't listen to her, she's just teasing you. I heard that you were picked up by the prince, so do you remember where your home is?" Gu Yunru bent down and was at eye level with her. Although little Su Li was only fifteen years old, she was already very mature, with a face full of collagen and rosy cheeks.
"I forgot."
Xiao Su Li's simple words stopped her from asking any more questions.
Looking at the figure of little Su Li running away, Qing Xing snorted and said, "This wild girl is so uneducated. If she were in the Central Plains, she would definitely greet you, the princess."
