The dungeon is not located in the camp.
The princess and her personal guards rode twenty or thirty miles away and came to a horse farm where slaves were kept. The farm was guarded by her people and only her personal guards were allowed to enter and leave.
She warned her personal guards: "Except for you, no one else knows about this. Even the judge doesn't know. When you meet someone later, no matter if it's the crown prince of Wei or not, you must keep your mouth shut and not reveal it to anyone, especially those ladies."
She had a rough life. She was once a Turkic Khatun, and later fell into the hands of the Northern Rong royal family and married a judge. Although she was favored by the judge over the years, because she was a Han Chinese, her status was never as high as that of the judge's other wives. Several wives were jealous of her and targeted her everywhere, always trying to find something to hold against her.
The guard replied, "I'll remember that."
The horse farm was deserted, with snow deep enough to submerge boots. Several people dismounted and walked more than ten miles before arriving at a row of cave houses that were half underground and made of earth and stones. They lit torches and walked inside.
The dungeon was dark and cold as an ice cellar.
The soldier guarding the prisoners opened the dungeon. The sound of the dragging chains startled the people inside. The man in the corner leaned against the earth wall, raised his curtains, and glanced coldly at the few people outside the cell.
A Hu woman came forward to pay her respects to the princess. When she saw the Han-looking personal guards behind the princess, she shuddered slightly.
The princess signaled her guards to come forward.
The guard walked to the front of the cell and carefully identified the man in the corner.
The man was dressed in tattered clothes, and his exposed skin was covered with scars, as if he had been severely tortured. His hair was unkempt and his face looked unkempt, but his facial features were still handsome and refined. Although he was lying down, one could still tell that he was tall and slender, with a straight back. Although he was imprisoned, he still had an extraordinary aura and a dignified demeanor, and there was a kind of calm and arrogant demeanor in his gaze.
Between the messy long hair, there is a pair of narrow and long phoenix eyes with a reserved look.
The guard said excitedly: "Princess, I recognize him. The young master of the Li family has such eyes. He is the crown prince of Wei!"
The eldest princess raised her eyelids and looked at the Hu woman.
The Hu girl knelt down and said, "Princess, I also think he is like the crown prince of Wei. However, no matter what I said to him these days, he ignored me. I couldn't get any information out of him."
Before, only the Hu woman had identified him, and the princess was not sure whether the man was Li Xuanzhen. Now the personal soldiers also said that he was Li Xuanzhen. She was silent for a while and narrowed her eyes.
"No wonder Yunniang has always been thinking about you..."
This man actually gave up his position as crown prince and came thousands of miles to find Zhu Luyun. This kind of sincerity is truly rare.
The eldest princess has experienced many twists and turns and knows how hard it is to be true.
Li Xuanzhen said nothing.
The princess thought for a moment, then turned and left the dungeon, instructing her guards: "The Crown Prince of Wei is here for Yunniang. Don't tell Yunniang, or she will cause trouble."
The guards responded and asked, "Princess, what should we do? Kill the crown prince of Wei?"
The princess shook her head and said, "Li Xuanzhen cannot be killed. He is the favorite son of the Wei emperor. If he is killed, the Wei will not let it go. Besides, there is Yunniang. She is my brother's only blood. Li Xuanzhen is willing to risk his life for her. For Yunniang, I will spare his life first."
The guard thought for a moment and said, "Why don't we use the crown prince of Wei to threaten the emperor of Wei and ask him to exchange Liangzhou for us? No matter what we want, the emperor of Wei will definitely not dare to refuse."
The princess still shook her head: "Then the news will leak out. Once the judge, A Ling or the Khan know about this, it will be difficult to resolve the matter. If Yunniang gets involved, even I can't protect her. Now no one knows that Li Xuanzhen is in my hands. I am in a difficult situation. I will lock him up first."
She emphasized again: "Don't let Yunniang know that Li Xuanzhen is imprisoned here."
She got a headache whenever she mentioned Zhu Luyun. This niece was too much like her brother, indecisive and fickle. One moment she said she wanted to forget Li Xuanzhen, and the next moment she cried over the jade bracelet Li Xuanzhen gave her. She was capable of doing all kinds of stupid things.
The bodyguards responded in unison.
In the dungeon, after the princess and her entourage left, the cell door slowly closed, and the Hu woman exchanged glances with Li Xuanzhen in the cell.
The soldier urged the woman to leave, warning her, "The princess has ordered that this matter must not be leaked. Remember this, or I will send you to reward those soldiers!"
The Hu woman nodded in agreement, put down the food box, stood up and left the cell, walked through the stable, and returned to her own narrow dungeon. She vigilantly pulled aside the felt curtain and looked around, making sure that there was no one around, and let out a long breath.
A few suppressed coughs from men were heard in the dark dungeon.
The Hu girl turned around quickly, pushed aside the thick pile of fodder in the corner, and whispered, "Master Li, Zhu Luyun has returned from the royal court."
The weeds trembled, and a burly and strong man suddenly sat up from the darkness. He had black hair and black eyes, a distinct facial contour, a pale and gloomy complexion, deep eyes, and a gloomy look. He was wearing a collared animal skin jacket, a belt around his waist, with a curved knife, a short dagger, and a whip rope attached to the belt. He was dressed like a common herdsman.
The Hu woman's heart was pounding. Princess Wen Zhao had lost her country to the emperor. Her brothers were also handsome and extraordinary. Unfortunately, the second prince was seriously injured and has not recovered yet.
Li Zhongqian struggled to sit up, a look of joy appeared on his haggard face, a few flashes of light passed through his eyes, he coughed a few times, and tightly grasped the Hu woman's hand.
"How is Wang Ting? Has she met Ming Yue Nu? What did she talk to Li Xuanzhen about? How is Ming Yue Nu doing?"
"Where's Mingyuenu?"
The Hu girl shook her head and said, "Sir, the princess kept Zhu Luyun a secret and did not let her meet the crown prince. The crown prince does not know whether Zhu Luyun has met Princess Wen Zhao."
Those few questions seemed to have exhausted Li Zhongqian's strength. His arms trembled, and he fell back onto the haystack with a bang. His face twitched a few times and his eyes were dim.
Ms. Hu sighed and comforted him softly, "My lord, don't worry. The Buddha has already informed all the countries. Now everyone knows that Princess Wen Zhao is under the protection of the Buddha. The princess will be safe."
Li Zhongqian was half conscious. He wanted to sit up and walk step by step to the royal court to find his Mingyue slave.
In order to survive, she had to give herself to a monk! She must have been very scared after all the suffering she had gone through. He had to save her and take her home.
But now the Northern Rong are blocking everywhere, and he has new wounds and old injuries, so he has to disguise himself as a herdsman and hide in this cave.
Li Zhongqian's teeth were chattering, and his eyes were staring straight at the roof, where a scorching fire was burning.
He didn't dare to imagine what kind of life Mingyuenu was living now. Unless he found her immediately, he would be tormented all the time.
The wound was aching slightly, and he was shocked and fell asleep again.
The Hu woman stayed with him, changed his dressings, dealt with the blood-stained gauze that was taken off, and found an excuse to talk to the personal soldiers who returned with Zhu Luyun, asking her what happened to Zhu Luyun in the royal court.
In the evening, the soldiers came to urge her to deliver food to Li Xuanzhen. She quickly agreed and carried the food box to the dungeon.
Li Xuanzhen took the food box, and the handcuffs on his hands clanged.
"Did Princess Fukang bring back any news about Princess Wen Zhao?"
He asked softly in the Weijun dialect.
The Hu girl shook her head and answered in the same dialect: "Those guards kept their mouths shut and refused to tell us what happened to Zhu Luyun in the royal court...but..."
Li Xuanzhen's hands trembled: "But what?"
The Hu woman whispered, "I heard them talking about how Princess Wen Zhao had no sense of shame and seduced a nun. It seemed like they were scolded by Princess Wen Zhao and said a lot of unpleasant things."
Li Xuanzhen looked at the naan in his hand, his heart slowly sinking, deeper and deeper, to an unfathomable bottom.
She had no sense of shame and fell into a situation where she was laughed at by others just to survive...
Li Xuanzhen shivered as he tore open the cold, hard naan, stuffed it into his mouth, and chewed it with an expressionless face.
He must gather his strength and find an opportunity to take Li Zhongqian away from Beirong and rescue her from prison.
"You want to find Princess Fukang... ask her to come see me." He whispered.
Ms. Hu agreed to come down.
Zhu Luyun was not used to the food of the northern Rong people. The Hu woman came from the Central Plains and was a good cook, so Princess Yiqingchang asked her to serve Zhu Luyun.
On this day, the guards came to tell her that Zhu Luyun was frightened and fell ill, so the princess ordered the Hu girl to make some food that was easy for Zhu Luyun to digest. The Hu girl readily agreed and found an opportunity to hide a ring that Li Xuanzhen wore in a rice cake and sent it to Zhu Luyun's tent.
The next day, Ms. Hu was summoned to Zhu Luyun's tent.
Zhu Luyun looked sick, but her pupils were shining. She asked, "Where did this ring come from? Is he here? Is he here to see me? Is Li Xuanzhen here?"
The Hu girl shook her head and said, "Princess, I know nothing! I don't know where this ring came from, and I have never seen the prince of Wei!"
After saying this, he deliberately showed an expression of panic and trembled all over.
Zhu Luyun held the ring tightly, "He must be here!"
Li Xuanzhen is the only one in the world who treats her the best. He finally gave up everything in Wei and came to find her!
Ms. Hu knew nothing about the question and left. After walking a distance, she saw two sneaky figures behind her out of the corner of her eye. They continued walking towards the horse farm as if nothing had happened.
That night, there was a commotion outside the horse farm.
Zhu Luyun came over.
In the dungeon, Ms. Hu pricked up her ears, listened carefully to the movements outside, and slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
In the dungeon a hundred steps away, the guard of the horse farm was in a state of panic. He stopped Zhu Luyun and said, "Princess, I'm sorry I can't let you in without the eldest princess's warrant."
Zhu Luyun's face turned pale. She pulled out a dagger and put it against her chest: "Don't hide it from me. I know Li Xuanzhen is in there! Let me go see him!"
The official was horrified. He signaled his subordinates with his eyes to ask the princess for instructions immediately, and said kindly: "Princess, don't be impulsive! If you have something to say, please talk to her nicely. If you do something wrong, wouldn't you be letting down the princess' kindness?"
Zhu Luyun's lips trembled: "I want to see Li Xuanzhen!"
Just as the scene was in chaos, the eldest princess, who had heard the news, rushed over and slapped Zhu Luyun so hard that she staggered.
"Yunniang, he is the crown prince of Wei, and you are the daughter of the Zhu family. Do you want to go back to Wei with him?"
Zhu Luyun choked with tears as she said, "Aunt, he has come all the way to find me. Please, let me go see him! He is the only one who has treated me well in the Wei Dynasty over the years. I cannot ignore him!"
As she spoke, she exerted force with her hand and stabbed the dagger into her clothes.
The eldest princess's eyebrows twitched, she sighed helplessly, and waved her hand, "Just go and see him."
Zhu Luyun was overjoyed. She put away the dagger and walked quickly into the dungeon.
The bodyguards looked at each other.
The princess looked exhausted. After thinking for a while, she made up her mind and told her guards: "Since Yunniang knows about this, don't let her out. Watch her and don't let her step out of the horse farm. Something will happen in the next few days, and the judge may not remember her for the time being. When the army moves out, you can take Li Xuanzhen with you by hiding him among the slaves. Be careful and don't let anyone find out."
"yes."
The personal guards lit torches to illuminate the cell. The firelight shone on Li Xuanzhen, illuminating his haggard face.
Zhu Luyun rushed to the cell, crying like rain.
Li Xuanzhen raised his head and saw Zhu Luyun, whom he had not seen for a long time, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings.
The two looked at each other for a long time.
Zhu Luyun left Zhongyuan in anger at first, determined not to go back for the rest of her life, but when she saw Li Xuanzhen again, the anger that made her decide to leave disappeared in an instant, leaving only his kindness to her.
She burst into tears and said, "Brother Changsheng, how did you end up in Orodo? How did my aunt catch you?"
Li Xuanzhen sighed.
It’s a long story.
…
A few months ago.
Li Xuanzhen, Li Zhongqian and their personal soldiers traveled day and night to rush to Yizhou, but before they had time to find out the news, they were locked up by Princess Yiqing's men.
It turned out that Princess Yiqing was worried about being suspected by the judge, so she decided to cut off all contact between Zhu Luyun and Zhongyuan and sent away all the personal soldiers around Zhu Luyun, including the spies that Li Xuanzhen had planted around Zhu Luyun.
The two sides were cut off from each other, and their spies had no time to raise the alarm. When Li Xuanzhen and his entourage arrived in Yizhou, they were like sheep among tigers.
When the guards saw them, they shouted, "Who are you? Are you sent by the Crown Prince of Wei?"
In order to avoid exposing his identity, Li Xuanzhen decisively killed the spy who had led them into Beirong. The spy was originally the eldest princess's man. After his death, the eldest princess's personal guards did not know their identities. At that time, Zhu Luyun was sent to the royal court again. No one recognized them, so they had to be imprisoned.
At that time, the situation in Yizhou was turbulent, and the princess's personal guards did not guard her strictly. Li Xuanzhen, Li Zhongqian and others killed the personal guards and escaped from Yizhou.
Since Xizuo was dead, they could only speak a little crude Hu language and could not communicate with each other. There were pursuers behind them, and several people were killed or injured. They had no time to slowly inquire for news. After discussion, the two decided to go straight to Haidu Aling's territory. Li Yaoying must be in his camp, so they could sneak in first and then make plans for the next step.
A few days later, they found Haidu Aling's territory. Just as they changed into herdsmen's clothes and prepared to sneak in, a thunderous roar came from the sky. A well-organized team of cavalry suddenly rushed over, deployed their battle formation, and surrounded the camp.
The horn blew, and the leading officer said in a loud voice: "We are taking over the territory of Haidu Aling under the order of the Great Prince. Everyone lay down your weapons and do not resist. Otherwise, you will be killed without mercy!"
After saying that, dozens of archers rode out on horseback, drew their bows and arrows on horseback, and fired thousands of arrows at once, shooting a dozen Northern Rong people in the camp who were preparing to ride out of the encirclement like hedgehogs.
Li Xuanzhen and Li Zhongqian looked at each other and realized that they were likely involved in the dispute among several princes of the Northern Rong.
Haidu Aling's subordinates were unwilling to surrender, and they shouted loudly. They quickly gathered their troops and began to counterattack, fighting with the prince's men. The two sides immediately started fighting, and the whole camp was shaking.
Li Xuanzhen and Li Zhongqian were extremely anxious and took advantage of the chaos to enter the camp to look for Li Yaoying, but found nothing.
Seeing that the battle was about to end and Haidu Aling's camp was about to be lost, the two men acted decisively, led their personal soldiers to kill the Beirong soldiers with swords, rescued one of Haidu Aling's Han subordinates, and led him out of the siege.
"Where is Princess Wen Zhao?"
Li Zhongqian cut the arm of a Han subordinate with a knife and asked.
The Han subordinates were so frightened that their faces turned pale: "Princess Wen Zhao? Is she the princess of Wei that the prince kidnapped from the Yelu tribe?"
Li Xuanzhen's face was grim: "Yes, it's her. Where did Haidu A Ling imprison her?"
The Han subordinate quickly said, "I know! I know where Princess Wen Zhao is imprisoned! She is imprisoned with the captives of the Yelu tribe! The prince likes her very much and always keeps her by his side. I can take you to find Princess Wen Zhao, I only ask the two good men to spare my life!"
After the eldest prince seized Haidu Aling's territory, he began to kill Haidu Aling's men on a large scale. The two were worried that Li Yaoying would be implicated, so they had no time to test him and could only trust the Han subordinate first.
They hurried on while avoiding capture by the eldest prince.
During this period, Li Xuanzhen interrogated the Han subordinate and found that he knew exactly how Li Yaoying ended up in the Yelu tribe and how she was captured by Haidu Aling. Moreover, Li Yaoying was as timid as a mouse and was very afraid of death. He should not have the courage to lie, so he gradually let down his guard.
Three days later, we arrived at another camp.
The Han subordinates told Li Xuanzhen that Haidu Aling had gone to Gaochang and was not in the camp. The eldest prince, the second prince, the youngest prince and Haidu Aling were fighting openly and secretly. Haidu Aling might have died in Gaochang. Now his subordinates were worried about being implicated and their defense was lax.
Li Xuanzhen was cautious and did not rush in. He first searched the outside.
The Han subordinates kept urging them, saying, "Princess Wen Zhao is right here. I saw her with my own eyes last month, leading her beloved Wusun horse to drink water by the river."
Then he pointed to a Hu woman who was picking up sheep dung outside the camp and said, "That is Princess Wen Zhao's maid."
Li Xuanzhen and Li Zhongqian were eager to save people, and when they heard their Han subordinates mention Wusun Horse, they believed it halfway. Li Xuanzhen recognized that the Hu woman was indeed the maid who was beside Li Yaoying when she got married, and he was so excited that his eyes turned red.
After entering the camp, Li Xuanzhen calmed down and suddenly felt something was strange: the river was frozen with heavy snow and had not yet thawed, so why were the horses drinking water by the river?
Just as he was about to speak up to remind Li Zhongqian, there were a few sharp whooshing sounds, cold arrows whizzed towards him, and dozens of Beirong soldiers rushed out from behind the snow pile and surrounded him.
The enemy had obviously been lying in ambush for a long time. The person who shot the arrows was a skilled shooter. The arrows were powerful and there was no way to avoid them. Both Li Zhongqian and Li Xuanzhen were hit by arrows. The personal soldiers cut off the arm of the Han subordinate who wanted to escape and protected the two of them as they left the camp.
The two brothers were seriously injured, and the few remaining personal soldiers were outnumbered and fought and retreated, but were finally exhausted and captured.
The Han subordinate lost an arm and was sweating from the pain. He laughed slyly, "Prince Aling said that we must capture every Han person who comes to rescue Princess Wen Zhao! You are all rich or noble. Judging from your age and skills, one of you must be Princess Wen Zhao's brother Li Zhongqian. If we capture Li Zhongqian, we will capture Princess Wen Zhao! When the prince comes back, it will be a great achievement!"
Li Xuanzhen was furious. He heard the real whereabouts of Li Yaoying from the words of the Han subordinates: Li Yaoying is not here! Haidu Aling set a trap and wanted to threaten Li Yaoying with Li Zhongqian!
The Han subordinates threw several people into the sheepfold and locked them up.
Li Zhongqian had not yet fully recovered from his previous injury, and the arrow wound triggered an old injury, making his injuries serious. Li Xuanzhen was helpless.
After a while, the Han subordinate who had bandaged his wound hastily brought the Hu woman to the sheepfold, pointed at Li Xuanzhen and several others, and asked: "Look, do you know anyone? Who is Li Zhongqian?"
Li Xuanzhen felt heavy-hearted because he had met this Hu woman named Tali when he went to the Yelu tribe.
Unexpectedly, Tali narrowed her eyes and carefully examined them one by one, and said timidly: "I don't know them. I have never seen them before."
The Han subordinates left with a sneer.
Li Xuanzhen thought Tali didn't remember him, but Tali turned around and looked at him with a meaningful look in her eyes.
He remained silent.
At night, Tali brought food to a few people. Looking at Li Zhongqian with bright eyes and deep brows, she said, "Young Master must be Princess Wen Zhao's biological brother. When I was in Chang'an, I often heard people in the palace mention you. The princess said that no matter where she ended up, Young Master would definitely come to save her..."
Having said this, she frowned and glanced at Li Xuanzhen, as if she was wondering why he, the man who was marrying the princess, was also here.
Li Xuanzhen said nothing.
Li Zhongqian was sweating profusely, but he didn't care about the pain and struggled to sit up: "Do you know Mingyuenu? Where is she?!"
Tali whispered, "Sir, don't worry. Princess Wen Zhao is safe now. She is in the royal court and under the protection of the Buddha."
Li Xuanzhen raised his head suddenly and his pupils contracted.
Li Yaoying is in the royal court?
How did she know the monk-lord with whom he wanted to form an alliance?
Without waiting for him to ask, Tali looked around warily and said in a low voice, "Sir, Prince Aling is determined to get the princess. The Buddhist has announced to all countries that the princess is his daughter Modanga, and Prince Aling can't find a chance to take action. The judge gave him an idea and told him to send someone to block the news and lure the princess's relatives to rescue her. The prince knows that the only person the princess cares about is you, so he has set up a trap and is waiting for you to fall into the trap."
Li Zhongqian was in a daze. He only heard her say that Li Yaoying was safe now, and did not hear anything else she said.
Li Xuanzhen broke out in a cold sweat and felt terrified after hearing this.
He asked, "Where is Haidu A Ling now?"
They must escape before Haidu Aling returns.
Tali shook her head. "No one knows where Prince A Ling is. The situation is very chaotic now. My lord, you must escape as soon as possible. The prince will definitely use you to threaten Princess Wen Zhao. The prince's subordinates once followed him to the Han land. Someone must recognize you. Once they find someone who can recognize the prince, you will not be able to escape."
After saying this, she left in a hurry.
Li Xuanzhen leaned against the wall, looked at the seriously injured Li Zhongqian, closed his eyes, and gave orders to his personal soldiers.
"Haidu Aling is unfathomable. We must find a way to leave this place as soon as possible. I will find an opportunity to create chaos, and you can take Li Zhongqian away and escape to the royal court during the chaos."
The guard was apprehensive and asked, "What about you, Your Highness?"
Li Xuanzhen pulled out the iron arrow from his arm, groaned, and stared at the night outside the sheepfold without changing his expression.
"If Li Zhongqian died here...she would never forgive me in her life."
Li Yaoying once said that for Li Zhongqian, she would die with him.
At that time, Li Xuanzhen thought that Li Yaoying was just speaking in anger.
He only had hatred in his heart and did not take her words seriously. He subconsciously felt that after Li Zhongqian died, she would be left alone and would eventually face reality...
And then?
In fact, he never thought seriously about what happened next.
His mother's last words were as heavy as a thousand pounds, weighing heavily on his heart. He wanted to get rid of Li Zhongqian as soon as possible, but was unwilling to think about what to do with her after Li Zhongqian's death.
Kill her?
Torture her?
Or lock her up and force her to bow her head?
Li Xuanzhen didn't want to think about it, as if everything would be solved as long as Concubine Xie and Li Zhongqian died.
The first time he realized that he had softened his heart towards her was when he was in Xiangzhou.
That night, the Wei army won a victory. At the celebration banquet, Li Yaoying, dressed as a servant, appeared beside Li Zhongqian, knelt obediently, poured wine and served food to his brother, while his slender eyes looked left and right, watching the excitement with great interest.
The others didn't know what was going on, but Li Xuanzhen recognized her at a glance and sneered in his heart.
She didn't like being restrained, and during the Battle of Red Cliff, she often dressed up as a rich young man to play at the ferry. As expected of Li Zhongqian's sister, she loved to play nonsense.
During the banquet, the dancer suddenly drew her weapon and attempted to assassinate Li Zhongqian.
Li Zhongqian was half drunk and did not notice the danger. Li Xuanzhen watched coldly, imagining the scene of Li Zhongqian bleeding on the spot, and an indescribable pleasure filled his heart.
He wished Li Zhongqian would die, and he would use any means to do so.
However, the next moment, he felt a chill all over his body and his hand involuntarily reached for his sword.
Li Yaoying pounced on Li Zhongqian without hesitation. She knew no martial arts and was just a young lady who could not even lift a company commander's desk. However, the moment she saw the dagger in the dancer's hand, she stood in front of her brother without a second thought, so decisively and firmly.
The dagger chopped down and hit her.
The sound of clothes being torn by the blade was clear and distinct.
In an instant, Li Xuanzhen felt the sound of wind whistling in his ears, and the scene in front of him suddenly became blurred. The blood in his body seemed to boil, making his head buzz.
He drew his sword and leaped over like a flying bird. By the time he came to his senses, the geisha had already died under his sword.
Although Li Zhongqian was still half drunk, the moment he sensed the murderous intent, he instinctively hugged Li Yaoying and rolled on the ground, avoiding the knife.
The others at the table reacted, rushed forward, and kicked the geisha's body open.
Li Zhongqian was almost sober now and became furious. He stood up and hurriedly left with the unconscious Li Yaoying in his arms.
Li Xuanzhen stood there, covered in blood, oblivious to the chaos around him.
He looked at Li Yaoying, whose eyes were closed in Li Zhongqian's arms, and the long sword in his hand fell to the ground with a clang.
Li Zhongqian would rather get hurt himself than let anything happen to her. Although he reacted a beat late, the dancer still failed to succeed.
In that case, why does he have to meddle in other people's affairs?
If he had come to his senses at that time, so many things would not have happened later, and Li Yaoying would not have suffered so much.
Now Li Zhongqian has come to Beirong to save her. If he dies in Beirong like this, when Li Yaoying knows the truth in the future, she might suspect that he did it on purpose.
She will hate him forever.
Blood was pouring down his arm, and the wound was as painful as drilling into his heart. Li Xuanzhen closed his eyes and said, "I am lucky, and it won't be that easy to die. Li Zhongqian is not as lucky as me. Don't worry about me, take him away first. I will lead them away."
Besides... now that he is in Haidu A Ling's hands, he can no longer pose a threat to Li Yaoying.
She didn't care whether he lived or died.
The bodyguards looked at each other, sighed, and responded in a low voice.
