His words were quite clever, immediately calming Ningyuan Hou down a bit. A person who could act as a messenger must be quite extraordinary.
"Go and send a message to Maimaiti now, telling him that he absolutely must eliminate Qi Guze in the Mingyue Kingdom. I will give him my full support," said Marquis Ningyuan after calming down.
"My lord, it's late at night now. You'll have to wait until tomorrow to set off," the messenger said dismissively.
"Set off now!" Marquis Ningyuan roared.
The messenger shrank back and had no choice but to agree, bowing and taking his leave.
...
Tie Xiong and the others soon arrived in the Mingyue Kingdom. Xu Yuehuai was shocked to see that Zhou Wan and Jiang Shichen had also come.
After all, the thought of meeting an old friend in a foreign land is exciting enough, let alone the fact that it happens to you.
Zhou Wan was stunned for a moment when she saw Xu Yuehuai, and then she burst into tears and hugged her.
"Why are you here?" After the two hugged and cried for a while, Xu Yuehuai let go of Zhou Wan and asked.
Zhou Wan's tears were still flowing. So much had happened in the past few days. After seeing Xu Yuehuai, she wanted to tell her everything at once, but then she thought that Xu Yuehuai must also be having a lot of troubles here, so she swallowed her words back.
Seeing her like this, Tie Xiong quickly answered for Zhou Wan, "Zhou Wan is here to help open the shop."
As he spoke, he said "oh" again, then took out the letter from the Duke of Zhenguo from his pocket and handed it to Xu Yuehuai.
Xu Yuehuai took the letter with both hands and slowly opened it. When she saw the familiar contents of the letter, she couldn't help but feel a little sad.
Seeing this, Qi Guze quickly patted her shoulder and asked, "A-Yue, what's wrong? Did something happen?"
He knew that Xu Yuehuai must be in trouble, so he thought that if she could tell him, he could help share the burden.
But Xu Yuehuai looked at him and shook her head; she didn't intend to say anything at this moment.
She then turned her gaze to Zhou Wan, wanting to ask her how she was feeling and whether she had experienced any discomfort from the bumpy journey.
"Zhou Wan, you've been on your way here..." She stopped abruptly before she could finish speaking, her gaze passing over Zhou Wan and landing on the carriage behind her, where a familiar figure was waving to her with difficulty.
Xu Yuehuai was slightly stunned. She raised her hand and rubbed her eyes repeatedly, looking at the carriage behind Zhou Wan in disbelief.
That figure was clearly...
"Anan?" Xu Yuehuai murmured the name, her lips twitching.
As she muttered to herself, she tugged at Qi Guze's sleeve and said tremblingly, "Qi Guze, you...you saw it? It looks like Anan."
Hearing the tremor in her voice, Qi Guze naturally guessed what she was thinking. He gently pulled his sleeve out of her hand, patted the back of her hand lightly, and said, "That is indeed Anan. You are not mistaken."
Xu Yuehuai could still bear the memory of meeting an old friend in a foreign land before, but this time, her reunion with Anan was like a long-awaited rain after a drought. She felt so overwhelmed that she could hardly stand and even wondered if she was dreaming.
After all, these things were hard for Xu Yuehuai to accept. It really was Anan. Anan had returned. She had thought she might never see Anan again in this lifetime.
Now, he is alive and well in front of me again. Although his condition looks bad, he is still alive, isn't he? This is a stroke of luck amidst misfortune. It seems that God is still looking out for me.
Xu Yuehuai was overwhelmed with mixed feelings and couldn't believe it was true. She wanted to rush over to take a look, but she didn't pay attention to the ground in her haste and tripped, falling straight to the ground.
"Ah Yue, don't worry, he's back safe and sound, isn't he?" Zhou Wan quickly caught Xu Yuehuai, preventing her from falling. Seeing Xu Yuehuai so happy, she was naturally overjoyed as well. After helping her up, she comforted her.
But Xu Yuehuai was no longer listening to any of this. She pushed Zhou Wan's hand away, needing to see her clearly before she could feel at ease.
Zhou Wan quickly stepped forward to support her, afraid that she might fall again by accident, and at the same time whispered to Xu Yuehuai not to get too excited, as all of this was true.
Xu Yuehuai walked to the front of the carriage, lifted the curtain and peeked inside. A huge weight lifted from her heart. It was indeed Anan inside, but the scars on his body instantly brought tears to her eyes again. It seemed that he had suffered a lot during that time.
Zhou Wan tried to persuade her for a couple of minutes, but when she realized she couldn't, she quickly made a hand gesture to Tie Xiong.
Seeing this, Tie Xiong pulled Jiang Shichen over and chuckled, saying, "We really owe this to this little rascal. He's the one who rescued Anan. Without his help, it would have taken us a lot more effort to get him out."
After Tie Xiong finished speaking, Xu Yuehuai wiped away her tears and quickly looked at the little guy beside him.
He walked over and patted his head, thinking to himself: I never thought that the little guy who used to need someone to protect him could now save people.
"Our Jiang Shichen is really amazing, he can even save people." Xu Yuehuai thought to herself before stepping forward and pulling him into her arms, chuckling to herself with a look of satisfaction on her face.
Jiang Shichen has experienced quite a few dangers and hardships, and he has really grown into a young man. However, despite this, he is still very thin-skinned.
After being praised by everyone, she blushed slightly and stared shyly at the tips of her shoes.
"Oh, our Shi Chen is shy, hahaha..." Xu Yuehuai said, bursting into laughter, and the people around him laughed as well.
"Grandma." Seeing this, Jiang Shichen was no longer shy and openly showed affection to Xu Yuehuai.
Qi Guze exchanged a glance with Tie Xiong and inquired about his recent situation.
"How have you been lately?" Qi Guze asked with a smile, playfully punching Tie Xiong.
"Thanks to Your Highness, things are not bad." Tie Xiong took the punch with his chest puffed out. Although he really wanted to punch back, he didn't dare. After all, Qi Guze's status was still there. Although even if he really punched him, Qi Guze wouldn't care.
Anan had actually recovered quite well, but the bumpy ride had reopened his wounds, so he fell into a deep sleep after entering the territory of the Dark Moon Kingdom. He only woke up when he heard everyone's laughter, and then he shakily got off the carriage and walked over to stand with everyone.
"Anan, why did you come down? Are you alright?" Xu Yuehuai asked, leading Jiang Shichen over. After all, Anan's injuries were quite frightening.
Xu Yuehuai was very worried that he would get injured again.
