When they arrived at the city gate, Lin Yuzhi was there too. The three of them stood in front of Wen Yu, with worry in their eyes.
Wen Yu smiled and said, "Trust me, Princess."
The city gate opened and Wen Yu walked out slowly alone.
She held a hot hand warmer in her hand, had no makeup on her face, and her long hair was half-tied up with a simple sandalwood hairpin, with the ends of her hair blown diagonally by the cold wind.
She was dressed in red, a darker red than the one Ning Xuanyan usually liked to wear, and extremely gorgeous. The white fox cloak she was wearing neutralized this intimidating gorgeousness.
The unadorned, plain and delicate chin is buried in the fox fur collar of the white cloak, revealing a pair of beautiful and lively eyes, which are gorgeous yet elegant and outstanding.
Like a ray of light that illuminates the dark night in the bitter snow at Beiyang Pass.
Lance stared at the figure not far away.
On the city wall, Lu Ren, Ning Xuanyan, Lin Yuzhi, Aleshi and others were all present, the archers were in place, and Yu Yi was also in the dark. If Lance dared to do anything to harm the princess, thousands of arrows would be fired.
"You men really care about you," Lance said.
Wen Yu walked all the way to ten meters in front of him and stopped, saying calmly: "I am the king and they are the subjects. It has nothing to do with whether they are my man or not, because I am the eldest princess and it is their duty to protect me."
"Really?" Lance smiled, "I thought you wouldn't come."
Wen Yu got straight to the point: "I didn't crawl out of bed to debate with you."
"I know what you want, isn't it just the location of the Ga Pian? Is it necessary for you to stay so far away from me? In my current state, can I still pose a threat to you? Lu Ren's arrow is not so easy to take."
He said, pointing to his chest which was already oozing blood.
"If it weren't for that slap from you, I wouldn't have been hit by the arrow."
Wen Yu tilted her head: "So you are blaming me?"
"...Maybe." Lance lowered his eyes, suddenly tore off his collar and bandages, revealing a bloody wound.
It seemed that because it was always breaking, the wound looked extremely hideous, as if it was about to rot. In the wind and snow, Wen Yu could even smell a strong smell of blood.
Looking at Lance's face again, it could no longer be described as white, but rather a light blue-gray hue.
"What does it mean to take off clothes just because you disagree with something?"
Lance stared at Wen Yu, speaking word by word as if he was complaining: "There were words branded here by your own hands, but they were destroyed by Lu Ren's arrow. He must have done it on purpose."
Wen Yu: ...
Could Lu Ren also be so cunning?
She raised her eyebrows and said with indulgence towards Lu Ren: "It's ruined, so be it."
Lance was stunned: "It's ruined...so it's ruined...ok?"
"What else? Why don't we burn three sticks of incense every day as tribute?"
Lance: ...
"Do you really not understand, or are you pretending?"
Wen Yu covered half of her face: "I don't understand."
Then he covered the other half and said, "I'm pretending."
Lance: ...
Wen Yu put down her hand and tilted her head: "Don't you always think this is a shame? Wouldn't it be better if it's gone? Lu Ren is your great benefactor now!"
In the cold wind, Lance's chest was exposed, but he seemed not to feel the cold. He took a step forward and said, "Wen Yu, you said that if I'm branded with words, I'm your dog."
Wen Yu: ...
"Did you tell me that? I don't remember."
"You can't not remember."
Lance continued to move forward step by step.
Getting closer, Wen Yu could see Lance's wound more clearly. The wound seemed to have been repeatedly bandaged, broken, infected, bandaged, broken again, and infected over and over again. Until now, it no longer looked like a piece of good meat.
It can be seen that King Dinu is only keeping Lance alive and has no intention of curing him. After all, once Lance recovers from his injuries and has the strength to fight back, who knows what he will do and get out of his control.
"Doesn't it hurt?" Wen Yu asked.
She was really curious. Not to mention ordinary people, even Lin Yu who was shot by an arrow had to stay in bed for a long time to recuperate, but Lance was seriously injured and still could stand in the wind and snow and talk to her.
"Are you concerned about me?" Lance took two steps forward.
Wen Yu sighed: "Stop talking nonsense and tell me where the gyapian is."
Lance had an ambiguous smile on his lips. He didn't answer and continued walking towards Wen Yu.
Getting closer.
Everyone on the city wall looked nervous when they saw this. Lu Ren raised the arrow in his hand slightly and then put it down again, but veins on the back of his hand were already bulging. It was not scary, and it was even inexplicably sexy.
Wen Yu's words rang in his mind: "Trust this princess."
"It's too close, why don't I go down..." said Aleshi.
Lu Ren, Ning Xuanyan and Lin Yuzhi stopped him at the same time.
“No.”
"No need."
"Don't cause trouble for the princess."
The three of them spoke at the same time, and then fell silent at the same time.
Alesi: ...
He had a vague feeling of being mentally isolated.
"Aren't you worried?"
Worry, how can I not worry.
But the princess is not a delicate flower waiting to be picked; she is the scorching sun above our heads. Beneath her absurd appearance lies a dazzling and firm sense of power.
"I believe in the princess."
"I believe in Wen Yu."
The three of them spoke again in unison.
The voice of "Wen Yu" seemed somewhat out of place. Lu Ren and Lin Yuzhi's eyes fell on Ning Xuanyan, and then immediately retracted their eyes.
Aleshi was silent for a moment: "I believe in the princess too."
At this moment, under the city wall, Lance walked up to Wen Yu, so close that he could hold her in his arms with just his hand.
"I thought you were going to back off."
"I don't want you to think that. What you think is just what you think. This princess never backs down."
Lance lowered his eyes and looked at Wen Yu seriously: "I'm going to die."
Wen Yu: ...
She was about to speak when Lance said, "The Jiapian is in a ruined temple in the wilderness southeast of Xiliyuanyin City. There is a secret passage. Move the petals at the base of the lotus in the order of four, three, nine, five, and six, moving them forward, backward, forward, and backward. Then stomp three times directly below the statue, and the passage will open. Below are all the Jiapian, Diyega, and Diyega seeds."
Wen Yu:……? ? ?
"You...are you kidding me?"
Lance’s face was pale. He stared at Wen Yu and smiled. He was really going to die.
When people are about to die, they really have a premonition.
He knew it when Ning Xuanyan was so angry that he vomited blood.
He just wanted to see Wen Yu again before he died, and wanted Wen Yu to come to see him, even if it was just at the city gate of Beiyang Pass.
She wanted to know where Ga Pian was, and he could tell her, but only her.
But when he saw her suspicious and questioning look, Lance's heart felt like a big hole had been broken, and cold wind rushed in, howling, even colder than the wind in Beiyang Pass at that moment, making him feel cold and painful.
He trembled all over and could no longer stand. He staggered and knelt in front of Wen Yu.
Wen Yu did not reach out to help.
Lance looked up at Wen Yu and met her slightly complicated expression, but it was not what he wanted to see the most.
But what did he want to see?
Lance couldn't explain it either.
Perhaps, this is the eternal punishment that love gives to this heretic who does not believe in love.
