"Well, I only thought they would set an ambush on the way there, but I didn't expect them to set an ambush on the way back as well. It seems I underestimated them."
"Your Majesty, I will lead them away later. You go first."
"We should leave together. There are many people on the other side. How many can you lead away by yourself?"
"We are in the light, and they are in the dark. We can't see them, but they can see us clearly, so we have to be extra careful."
"Well, later on, let's not separate. This way we can prevent the enemy from attacking from both sides. See those trees over there? If we lead them there, both sides will be in the dark, and we won't be afraid anymore."
"Okay, I understand."
Before they could finish their words, countless arrows were suddenly shot out from the darkness at the same time. The two of them blocked the arrows while moving towards the trees as planned.
It was easy for them to deal with these arrows flying in the open, which also made the men in black hiding in the dark a little anxious.
After a while, the two of them came to the grove with their backs to each other. Seeing that the man in black was no longer there, they dodged at the same time, hid behind a big tree, and looked quietly at the distance.
At this time, footsteps were heard, and four or five men in black came into the grove. Seeing that there was no one around, one of them muttered,
"Where are the people? Where did they go?"
"He must be hiding. It turns out that even the great Prince Yu is a coward!"
"Don't care what kind of turtle he is. We have to take his head today. Our heads are going to be taken away."
"Okay, everyone split up and look for it."
After they finished talking, they began to look around.
After they left, Leng Yu looked around vigilantly for a while. Seeing that there was no one else, he made a gesture to Xiao Lingzi with relief, indicating that he should deal with the two people over there, and he would deal with the three people here.
Xiao Lingzi shook his head vigorously, signaling them to change positions, because he was worried about letting Leng Yu deal with the three people over there by himself.
Leng Yu frowned and scolded in a low voice:
"Do as I say. My master's kung fu is not much better than yours."
Seeing Leng Yu's insistence, Xiao Lingzi had no choice but to nod.
"good……"
As soon as the word "good" came out of their mouths, the two of them split up and rushed directly in the direction where the men in black had left.
After a while, the sound of weapons clashing was heard in the forest. Leng Yu and Xiao Lingzi were fighting with the men in black respectively.
Although the other side had more people and more power, General Leng Yu, the God of War, was not in vain. After a while, he knocked the three men in black to the ground. Just as he was about to move forward, the three men in black suddenly stood up and ran towards the depths of the woods.
Leng Yu did not pursue the enemy but rushed towards Xiao Lingzi. At the same time, Xiao Lingzi defeated the two men in black and rushed towards him.
The two of them met at the place where they had just separated, and Xiao Lingzi stepped forward eagerly and asked:
"My Lord, are you okay?"
Leng Yu frowned and shook his head.
"nothing and you?"
"It's okay. These guys run faster than rabbits."
"Okay, let's get going!"
After saying that, the two of them quickly walked towards the official road. Fortunately, the two horses were only slightly injured and were still waiting for them when they returned to their original place...
On this official road leading to the capital, the sound of horse hooves echoed again, raising clouds of dust...
The next day, the early morning sun shone brightly into the room. When Luo Lan opened her eyes, she found herself still sitting in the same position as yesterday. Just as she was about to stand up from the ground, she found that her legs were a little numb.
She groaned and fell to the ground again. After a while, she tentatively stood up from the ground.
"This night has been so long..."
She muttered as she walked towards the inner chamber. It was time to change the emperor's medicine.
"ah!"
As soon as she stepped over the screen, she was stunned by the scene in front of her. She had never been frightened before, but this time she couldn't help but exclaim.
She saw the emperor sitting on the edge of the imperial couch in front of her, staring at her.
"Emperor...Father, why...are you awake?"
After the emperor took a look at her, he suddenly lay down weakly, looked up at the ceiling, and muttered,
"Why are you here?"
The emperor's question made Luo Lan stunned for a moment.
According to her inference, the emperor should have a splitting headache or be drowsy at this time. How could his mind be so clear?
Thinking of the disrespectful words she had said to the emperor a few days ago, Luo Lan hurriedly swung her skirt and knelt down.
"Your Majesty, you've woken up. How wonderful! A few days ago, you had a drug addiction attack, and while I was treating you, I was a bit rude with my words. I hope Your Majesty will forgive my rudeness for the sake of my ability to cure your addiction."
The emperor, however, seemed not to hear what she said and continued to mutter to himself.
"What's wrong with me? Why am I lying here? How long have I been sleeping?"
Did the emperor lose his memory?
This idea suddenly appeared in Luo Lan's mind.
She frowned and shook her head secretly. This shouldn't be the case. Logically speaking, he didn't suffer any brain damage, so how could he lose his memory?
So, she blinked her sparkling eyes and asked tentatively:
"Father, you... do you still recognize me?"
"I recognize you. You are Princess Yu. Your original name is Shui Luolan, but you later changed it to Liu Luolan. How could you ask me such an ignorant question? Do you really think I'm not smart?"
His mind is so clear, it seems he has not lost his memory.
"Then you knew you were poisoned?"
"Poisoned? When was I poisoned? Who dares to poison me?"
The emperor's questioning made Luo Lan a little confused. Just when she didn't know what to say, the emperor suddenly covered his head with his hands and kept wailing.
"What kind of poison has poisoned me? Why does my head hurt so much? Princess Yu, you are the number one female physician in Daning Kingdom. Please take a look at me. What's wrong with my head? Please save me..."
Luo Lan saw that the emperor was beginning to have a headache, so he quickly stood up from the ground, came to his side, and comforted him softly:
"Father, you've been poisoned by the drug. You'll definitely have a headache when you wake up, but it will be fine tomorrow. Please sleep a little longer. I'll go tell Eunuch Liu the good news."
The emperor did not say anything, but covered his head with his hands tightly, his brows furrowed into a shape of a "川" (川).
The emperor has woken up. If Liu Xi knew this news, he would definitely be happy. Thinking of this, Luo Lan hurriedly trotted towards the door.
Hearing the door open, the emperor took his hands away from his head, blinked his eyes alertly, and sighed to himself.
It turned out that he remembered everything, he just didn't want to admit it.
He didn't want anyone to know that he had such a foolish idea as wanting to live forever.
He also didn't want others to know that he had crawled on the ground like a dog, begging for medicine and wagging his tail for mercy in front of his son.
