Zong Zheng Xingyao was shaken so much that he almost vomited on the horse's back.
Leng Dian noticed something was wrong with her, and after much hesitation, he asked in a low voice, "Princess, would you like me to stop and rest for a while?"
Zong Zheng Xingyao suppressed his discomfort and shook his head.
"Don't delay your work for me alone. It's more important to get on with your journey."
Since leaving the palace, she rarely calls herself "this palace" anymore.
Because she understood that no one here would really treat her like a princess.
She must be strong and independent so as not to be annoying.
I didn’t expect that such a delicate princess would not be so pretentious.
This made Leng Dian look at her with a new respect.
"Your Highness, please be patient for a moment."
"I will try to ride more steadily."
As he spoke, Leng Dian pulled the reins tighter and brought Zong Zheng Xingyao closer to his arms.
Zong Zheng Xingyao felt a firm chest behind him, and his face had already turned red.
Is this person really just an ordinary guard?
No, not just him.
All the guards in the mountain stronghold tonight are definitely not just ordinary servants and guards in ordinary families!
In fact, it is possible that each of them is more skilled than the guards in the palace.
After these two days, Zong Zheng Xingyao also saw clearly.
This Nangong Qingluo is definitely not just an ordinary merchant woman.
Her actions and strategies were so interconnected that Zong Zheng Xingyao was overwhelmed and admired her very much.
Before Zong Zheng Xingyao could wrap her mind around some things, she immediately thought of the next thing.
Until now, Zong Zheng Xingyao has not figured out all of Li Qingluo's plans.
But she just went along and got to this point.
Who exactly is this Nangong Qingluo?
This question has popped up in Zong Zheng Xingyao's mind several times.
When she saw that her father and brother had been framed like this, Zong Zheng Xingyao couldn't describe the feeling in her heart.
She turned her head and looked aside.
On the left side of Zong Zheng Xingyao was Jin Huan, who was suppressing her murderous intent and personally carrying Zong Zheng Wuxie, who had one hand cut off.
Zong Zheng Wuxie's face was pale and he had lost consciousness. His hands were hanging on the horse's belly, one of which was tightly wrapped in gauze and soaked in blood.
Zong Zheng Xingyao glanced at the miserable state of his fourth brother and turned his head away with reluctance.
In front of him was Nangong Qingluo, dressed in men's clothes and galloping on his horse with a heroic look.
Behind her were an old nanny and a maid.
"Who are you?"
Zong Zheng Xingyao couldn't help but ask Leng Dian behind him.
Leng Dian: "Your Highness, you don't need to know."
Zong Zheng Xingyao sneered.
"I hope I won't regret cooperating with you."
"If you harm the country and people of Great Chu... I will be a sinner for all eternity."
Leng Dian: "Princess, you worry too much."
"The Chu state has long been rotten to the core. Why are you taking the blame?"
“A thousand-mile dam can be breached by an ant hole, but it doesn’t happen overnight.”
Zong Zheng Xingyao turned his head in surprise and looked at the person behind him.
How could he say such a thing?
He's just a guard, yet he has such vision and state of mind!
This made Zong Zheng Xingyao's heart beat uncontrollably.
However, things did not go as smoothly as Li Qingluo had imagined.
The King of Qin soon discovered that a small number of troops had turned away and split up along the way.
So, a team of 100 people was sent to pursue them.
The killers were the first to discover the people behind them.
"Girls, you go first!"
"The subordinates will stay behind to cover our retreat."
Li Qingluo stopped his horse and turned it around.
"Live and die together, advance and retreat together!"
"Everyone, quick victory!"
If they leave twenty men to fight against the Qin King's team of one hundred men, they still have a chance of winning.
But there will be sacrifice and bloodshed.
Li Qing has killed twenty-seven people, and she will never let this number decrease by even one.
The killers looked at each other, each of them with moved expressions.
They have been trained to be tools of killing since childhood.
It can be a knife or a sword.
It can also be a sharp blade and shield that can be sacrificed at any time.
But it is definitely not a human.
However, since following the girl, they began to become flesh and blood, and began to be cherished and cared for.
They felt like they were still alive.
Even now there are brothers who can talk about marriage.
The girl even asked Qin Ling to develop an ointment to erase the tattoos on their faces.
Now, the girl has to live and die with them.
How could having such a master not be the light of their originally dark, lifeless and dead life?
Everyone drew their swords and knives, taking out their most skilled weapons: "We swear to die with the young lady, to live and die together, to advance and retreat together!"
Li Qingluo took the bow and arrow thrown by Nanny Zheng and put it on his back.
She then drew out the Biluo Sword and held it in her hand, her eyes firm and resolute: "Remember, I don't want you to die. No one can be left behind today."
Her eyes weren't just focused on the word "kill."
He also looked at the guards of Prince Su's Mansion.
Finally, it fell on Zong Zheng Xingyao, and she nodded heavily.
Seeing Li Qingluo like this, Zong Zheng Xingyao was shocked and his heart was shaking like an earthquake.
It turns out that there are women in this world who can live like this.
So unrestrained and carefree, so domineering and steady, so... women are as good as men.
She can lead a group of men and make them work for her wholeheartedly.
Sincerity can be exchanged for loyalty and unity.
