Chapter 357 Forgive Him This Time
She asked Liao Jiu to go out and rest, but Liao Jiu didn't move. "I can't sleep well if I go out alone. I can only feel more comfortable if I stay in the same room with you. I'll just lie on the table and take a nap."
Jiang Lianzhu glared at him, as if she had cast a spell on him.
It was so uncomfortable to sit and rest on the edge of the table. He had been exposed to the wind and rain for several days, so I could only give him half of the couch.
Liao Jiu suppressed his surging excitement, got on the couch, and hugged Jiang Lianzhu tightly in his arms. The long-lost feeling of security returned.
"very nice."
"What's so good?"
"It's great to have a wife around."
Jiang Lianzhu's heart was also pounding. She was tightly surrounded by the smell of Liao Jiu's male hormones. The warm man and the hot embrace made her heart sway.
She quietly raised her head and looked at Liao Jiu with a rare shy look...
As a result, this guy closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
The legendary sleep in seconds!!
Even when she fell asleep, with a smile on her face, she was having a sweet dream.
Jiang Lianzhu wanted to slap him in the face, but forget it, considering how hard he worked, she let him go this time.
She also smiled, found a comfortable position in his arms, and fell into a deep sleep.
***
A few days later, at Baihualou headquarters.
In the dark pool of life, there are several white water lilies floating in the black water.
In the core of each water lily flower, there is a crystal candle burning.
The tall and graceful man with the flower mask stood by the pool of life, with two waiters beside him reporting the contents of the pigeon letter to him.
"Eagle Master's mission to encircle and suppress the Jiang family and Prince Xiang's young master has failed. Currently, Eagle Master's whereabouts are unknown..."
The man with the flower mask hummed, looked quietly at the water lilies in the pond, and said nothing more.
Inside the house, it was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
After waiting for a long time, a waiter timidly asked, "Master, should we report this to the owner of the building? This Eagle Master is the owner's favorite disciple. If anything happens to him, I'm afraid the owner will blame him..."
The masked man said casually, "He's not dead."
There are several masters in Baihua Tower, and the life lamp of each master is here. The lamp of Eagle Master is just a little dim, but it has not gone out, which means that he is not dead.
The waiter replied, "It would be worse if he didn't die. What if..."
The mission failed, but the person is not dead. If the secret is leaked, the punishment will be more severe.
The flower-masked man chuckled and said, "No, you guys can go down. I'll report to the host in person."
If it were any other ordinary death warrior, they would still worry about the problem of leaking secrets, but it is impossible for the several helmsmen to leak secrets because the life lamps are all here.
The man with the flower mask carefully looked at the lamp in the middle, which was his.
The white water lilies, the crystal candles, and the crystal candlelight are very beautiful.
He was lost in thought, not knowing what he was thinking.
He has never taken off the mask since he put it on.
I never ate or slept.
It seemed like a long time.
"Yes." The two waiters carried the pigeon message tray, bowed, and left.
The two of them spoke in a low voice long after they had left the main building.
"The master seems to be getting more and more stable now. In the past, when something big happened, he would go to the host first. He was even more anxious than us. Now he is not like that anymore..."
"Master has become more efficient and capable now! He is the future successor chosen by the owner of the building, so he can handle all the affairs of our Baihua Building."
The two were discussing quietly when suddenly, a carrier pigeon, leisurely flying in the sky, suddenly swooped down and pecked them hard in the face...
The speed is too fast.
When the two men reacted, they found two small bloody holes on their faces.
The two waiters immediately understood what was going on.
He knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, "Master, we were wrong. We shouldn't have talked about others behind their backs and gossiped about them."
"We won't dare to do it again. Please forgive us this time."
The little carrier pigeon then put away its fierce look, flapped its wings and flew away.
The two waiters were so scared that they broke out in cold sweats and left in shame, never daring to say a word again.
***
The next day, setting out from Shamen County, Liao Jiu borrowed two hundred guards to escort them to the provincial capital.
Every week when they arrived at a new city, Liao Jiu would borrow elite soldiers for protection, and gradually, the journey became safer.
With Chengfeng patrolling in the sky and three snow wolves giving warnings below, they were no longer worried about the attack from Baihua Tower.
The armed forces are very strong.
After walking on the road for a few days, Jiang Lianzhu saw that Jiang Cheng's condition was already very good. Except for forgetting the most dangerous things that happened in those days, everything else was fine. She gradually felt relieved.
I told the kids not to mention what happened in the past few days in front of Jiang Chengshi, and the kids agreed obediently.
The three boys and Jiang Cheng rode in a carriage. Jiang Lianzhu was tired of riding in a carriage, so she also rode a horse and walked side by side with Liao Jiu outside.
Look at the scenery outside.
She had traveled through time and space and had never been far away. The territory of Da'an Kingdom was vast. Liao Jiu said that it would take at least twenty days to travel from Shili Town to the capital at their speed.
They had already done it in a big way and had not concealed it, so she and Liao Jiu did not have to hide. They had deployed troops to defend the city along the way, so as long as others inquired, they would know their whereabouts.
Liao Jiu's intention was to go to the capital and give Baihualou a chance to make a move. He wanted to try and see if he could catch another big fish.
The sentries that were captured alive last time did not reveal anything wrong. They should not have known much information, and the most valuable one was the Eagle Master Mao Shurong. He was the nominal disciple of Baihua Tower and had close contact with the top management of Baihua Tower.
Several sentries were of little value and had been executed.
Only Mao Shurong is left.
Liao Jiu pointed to the road ahead and said, "We're almost at the Chubei Prefecture's capital."
Jiang Lianzhu looked around. The scenery was beautiful, with green mountains and clear waters, fresh air, a wide official road, and a huge team that stretched for more than a mile.
"How long?"
The provincial capital where their Shili Town is located is called Chubei Prefecture. Da'an Kingdom has more than 20 provincial capitals, which is considered a relatively large country. Each provincial capital is different in size. Some are vast, some are densely populated, some have many lakes and mountains, and some are entirely alpine grasslands, each with its own characteristics.
Chubei Prefecture is mountainous and steep, located in the central and northern part of Da'an State. It is not particularly remote, but there are many mountains and the roads are not easy to travel, so you will have to take a detour and waste time.
"About 10 to 20 miles. If we don't get there today, we'll definitely get there tomorrow."
Jiang Lianzhu nodded.
Liao Jiu said, "After arriving in the provincial capital tomorrow, we will take the waterway to the capital. If we take the waterway, we won't have to take a detour. By the way, do you get seasick? If so, you should prepare some seasickness medicine..."
