Difference

As soon as the young man finished speaking, there were gasps all around him.

Could it be that this girl is not a doctor sent by the court, but General Gu’s...lover?

No wonder General Gu just went against his usual behavior and forced them to put on clothes.

Before Dr. Mu came to the military camp, he never cared about so many things.

Mu An Ning moved his arm uncomfortably, and took a deep breath before looking away for a while: "I didn't... ignore you."

She just didn't know how to face him.

Gu Huaizhi felt even more wronged when he heard this, but he couldn't blame her. He just asked, "Then why didn't you help me apply the medicine, but... helped them instead?"

Based on his understanding of her, she should feel a little sympathy for him because he saved her life.

Although he never thought about asking for anything in return, he still felt a little unhappy in his heart.

She is so heartless and only wants to marry Tan Wenhuai, so much so that even though he has been hurt for her, she doesn't care now and just wants to cut off ties with him?

Mu An Ning choked and subconsciously looked at the dozens of soldiers around her. She saw that they were all staring at her and Gu Huaizhi, with gossip in their eyes about to overflow.

She also heard several soldiers whispering, "Is General Gu jealous of his brothers?"

"Shush, shush, stop making noise. Let me hear what Dr. Mu has to say..."

Gu Huaizhi stared at her slightly trembling eyelashes, and then looked at her hands that were tightly grasping his sleeves.

Obviously, she was a little embarrassed, but he just wanted an answer.

Mu An Ning tensed up tightly, forcing himself not to think about the night three days ago. He said in a calm tone, "It is not convenient for me to check the injuries of the prince. It is better to let the doctor take a look."

She is now helping people apply medicine only because there is a shortage of manpower, and she would not look at a man's naked body unless she has to.

"Aning, what are you afraid of?" Gu Huaizhi paused, raised his eyebrows slightly, and added in a sullen tone: "It's not like you haven't seen this before..."

She had clearly applied medicine to this spot before, so why didn't it work now?

Moreover, she applied medicine to so many men but not to him.

A few soldiers were still whispering, but when they heard this, they immediately shut their mouths and raised their ears even higher.

Even a doctor who was standing nearby slowed down his movements unconsciously.

Many of them were not from the capital, and only a few of them lived in Shangjing and knew some of the reasons.

Now in this dull military camp, it is rare to have something fun to watch, so I have to watch it carefully and don’t want to miss it at all.

When Mu An Ning heard the young man talking about the past, his face gradually became warmer under the sun. He turned his head and said softly, "...It's different now."

Judging from Gu Huaizhi's expression, he probably didn't know that they accidentally kissed each other that night.

Although she has tried hard to forget and not take this matter seriously these days, she still can't help but think of this thing that can only be done after marriage.

Not to mention that at this moment, he was standing in front of her.

Gu Huaizhi's heart suddenly tightened, and his eyes stared deeply into the girl's tranquil face.

It was really because of Tan Wenhuai that she treated him like this, but he could do nothing about it and could not blame her.

He had lost her by accident.

But he still wanted to fight for it again. After all, he originally thought that day in front of Jishitang would be the last time they would see each other.

And now, God has brought her back to him.

Does this mean that their relationship has not been completely severed?

Just as the boy and girl were standing motionless under the shade of the tree, suddenly several laughs were heard.

The soldiers smiled at each other. They had not expected that the majestic young General Gu would not even dare to speak too loudly in front of a little girl for fear of angering her.

It seemed as if they could already see what he would look like after marriage.

Gu Huaizhi looked towards the source of the laughter and narrowed his eyes. When the soldiers were frightened by his warning look and fell silent, he said in a muffled voice: "Aning, go and do your work."

Mu An Ning's hand that was tightly holding the hem of her clothes just loosened, but unexpectedly, the young man leaned against the tree beside him, smiled, and said, "I'll accompany you."

Since she was determined to apply medicine to people, if he tried to stop her, it would only make her angry. The only thing he could do was to keep an eye on those soldiers to prevent anyone from taking off their clothes and polluting Aning's eyes.

Mu An Ning opened his mouth, wanting to let him rest to prevent the injury from getting worse, but looking at the young man's burning eyes, he couldn't say anything.

"Wuwuwu, it's all your fault." Luo Zhiyan squatted on the ground, sweating from the heat. She wiped her tears and the sweat from her forehead with her hands: "Tell me, what should we do now?"

She regrets it now, very much.

She shouldn't have ignored Chuntao's advice and gone to the border with Tan Wenhuai.

Now, Brother Huai was not found, and they were lost. Chuntao was still following that group of doctors, and no one knew where she was now.

Tan Wenhuai stared at the girl's hair, wanting to comfort her but not knowing how to start. After all, he was also extremely anxious in his heart, and this was the first time he had faced such a thing.

A few months ago, he brought his servants from Jiangnan to Shangjing. Although he was not familiar with the road conditions, he at least knew where to go.

At this moment, he didn't know the road conditions or where to go, and he was at a loss for a moment.

He glanced at the blazing sun and finally made up his mind to wake the girl up and hurry on her way, but he hadn't thought of the right words yet: "Aunt Luo, Aunt..."

Luo Zhiyan quickly raised her head and glanced at him, crying even louder: "You little stutterer, who is your aunt!"

Hearing the girl calling him like that, Tan Wenhuai's face suddenly turned hot and he stood there motionless, but there was a rare trace of annoyance on his face.

Seeing that he stopped talking, Luo Zhiyan sobbed for a while and couldn't help but raise her head. Her eyes were swollen and she didn't look like the arrogant cousin of Anqing Palace a few days ago.

"Hey, little stutterer." Luo Zhiyan sniffed and asked in a cute voice, "Why don't you talk?"

Tan Wenhuai's face flushed red. After thinking for a long time, he finally spoke out his true feelings in one breath: "Miss Luo, please don't call me Tan like that. I find it a bit rude."

"Hmm?" Luo Zhiyan looked up and frowned in confusion. After a moment, she suddenly realized, "Are you talking about the little stutterer?"

Tan Wenhuai lowered his eyelids to hide the disappointment in his eyes and nodded heavily.

Since he was a child, his classmates in school have made fun of him for this.

"I'm going to scream!" Luo Zhiyan never liked being ordered around, so she snorted subconsciously.

The scene suddenly became silent. Tan Wenhuai stopped talking again, his heart sank, as if he was shrouded in a gloom.

"Alright, alright." After a while, Luo Zhiyan suddenly wiped away her tears and pouted: "I won't call you a stutterer anymore, why are you so angry..."

Luo Zhiyan pouted her lips and suddenly stretched out her hand: "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and pull me up. I'm almost burnt by the sun."

Tan Wenhuai looked at the fleshy hand stretched out in front of him and turned his face away, but his tone was much softer: "Miss Luo, please stand up by yourself."

Luo Zhiyan choked and was about to scold him when she suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves not far away.

It sounds very unkind.

The two looked at each other and were stunned for a moment. Tan Wenhuai no longer cared about etiquette and reached out to quickly pull Luo Zhiyan up. He looked left and right, and finally hid behind a big tree.

As the sound of horse hooves approached, the voice of the person on the horse became particularly clear: "Master, rest assured, the assassination has been accomplished."

"Tonight..."

Just as Tan Wenhuai and Luo Zhiyan were listening with bated breath, the horse suddenly stopped in front of a tree, and the two people behind the tree immediately felt their hearts rise to their throats.

The masked man gave his men a sinister look.

Soon, the two people behind the tree were pulled out without any suspense and brought in front of the man on horseback.

It was June, but the man was still wearing a black cloak, as if he was in a different season from the people around him.

Luo Zhiyan felt pain, but when she saw those pale grey eyes, she was distracted for a rare moment and said in a trance: "Brother?"

The man seemed stunned for a moment, but soon, a dangerous look appeared in his eyes: "What are you calling me for?"

Luo Zhiyan came to her senses and was so scared that she immediately hid behind Tan Wenhuai, shaking her head like a wave drum.

Seeing this, the man's subordinates put the hilt of the sword against Tan Wenhuai's neck and asked coldly, "Who are you?"

Luo Zhiyan had never seen such a scene before. She hid behind Tan Wenhuai and dared not say a word, her face turning pale.

The final answer was given by Tan Wenhuai who tried his best to maintain his composure: "Gentlemen, we are just passing by and have no intention of offending you."

The man on horseback looked at them for a long time, then suddenly chuckled in a strange tone, "Since we have met, it is fate. Where are you two going? If it is convenient, maybe I can give you a ride."

Luo Zhiyan's face lit up instantly, and she forgot her fear: "Really? Where are we going..."

Tan Wenhuai felt that the visitor had bad intentions, so he took the lead and said, "Go to the capital."

midnight.

The young man on the couch rested his hands behind his head, unable to fall asleep.

He knew in his heart that he should take good care of his injuries, after all, the Liang people could attack at any time, but he couldn't help but let his imagination run wild.

Today, he watched her busying around, healing the wounds of a group of soldiers. Although he felt a little unhappy, his feelings for her kept rising.

She was still so indifferent, not giving him a chance to say another word.

However, before returning to the tent, she still reminded him how to treat the wound and told him to watch less things that are bad for the body.

Although he didn't understand what she said, he suddenly felt certain that he still had a certain place in her heart.

Although...maybe not as bad as that disgusting Tan Wenhuai.

If there were no war at this moment, he really wanted to drink some more wine, so that he would have the courage to find her and explain things clearly.

Just as I was thinking about it, there was a sudden noise and hurried footsteps outside the tent.

Gu Huaizhi's expression froze, and without hesitation he picked up his sword, put on his scarlet clothes, and left the tent.

The soldiers outside saw him coming out and said hurriedly with bitter faces: "General Gu, the granary is on fire."

After the soldiers finished speaking, they hurriedly carried basins of water to the granary. After all, the food the prince brought was not much. If they ran out of rations, they didn't know how long they could last.

By then, the chances of Chu's victory will probably be even smaller.

Gu Huaizhi looked towards the surging fire, his red pupils shrank sharply, and the sword in his hand almost fell to the ground.

Mu Anning's tent was right next to the granary.
