I woke up in my own account in the evening. The bonfire outside has been lit, and the bustling banquet during the day has been cleaned up. Only a tall figure stands at the entrance to the path leading deep into the woods. "Wei Ruyin, I find you more and more unfathomable," said the prince.
Lou Qi had already keenly sensed my arrival, but only turned around leisurely as I approached.
"You don't seem like the Wei Ruyin I know," he said.
His gaze was much deeper and more complex than Lou Jingzhi, like an abyss that draws people in.
"Sometimes, to retrieve what you want, you have to give up something."
"Is this what you gave up?"
Lou Qi reached out with a well-crafted corner bow in hand.
"Not bad, you won this round, but you won't have the chance to pick up a bow and arrow in front of Lou Jingzhi again."
My gaze fell on it, the string of the bow had already broken into two pieces in the middle.
I silently smiled and looked towards the deep distance.
The person who can use the bow was never me. Since returning from the spring hunt, Lou Jingzhi has been staying in my room whenever he has free time, and countless jewels, jade, and rare items have also been sent over here. It really carries a deep affectionate meaning.
Who else knows that every night, when the candles are extinguished, there is a moment of silence all around. My restless eyes gaze at my sleeping husband, almost wanting to kill him to end my misery. This morning, as I stood by the window, idly waiting for news that would bring joy, an unexpected visitor arrived.
The pigeon landed on the windowsill of my bedroom. There is a gray scar on its red left foot, which is thicker than the right one. I recognize this pigeon; it is raised by Mu Xiao.
Because that scar was left by my ignorance when I was young, I threw a hairpin at the pigeon cage while playing and it left a mark when it hit me.
Later, the pigeon I injured became the best messenger pigeon.
How could Mu Xiao's treasure appear here?
Looking up at the sky in our dynasty, all I can see is the empty eaves. I take off the note from the pigeon's leg.
【 Ning Kingdom The triumphant return of the army】
At the end is the unique mark of Mu Xiao.
An ominous premonition gradually spread in the heart.
" I wants to see the king."
I went to the Ning Kingdom military camp alone.
The guards dared not touch me, and despite their attempts to stop me, I reached Lou Jingzhi's large tent.
"Who allowed you to come here?"
Lou Jingzhi frowned at me.
"General Xiao Where is he?"
I suppressed my anger and had been secretly observing the situation of the military camp all the way here.
Ning Kingdom The commander-in-chief of the army, Ning Kingdom's top general Xiao Sheng is not in the military camp at the moment.
The king is here, but the general is nowhere to be seen, there is only one explanation.
"Report--"
The spy went straight in, with an excited look on his face that was definitely not fake. The news he brought might be the triumphant return of the army.
"General Xiao took Mu Zhang's head at the banquet!"
"Idiot!"
I angrily drew the sword hanging on the wall and held it against the spy's neck.
"Lou Jingzhi, what do you have to say for yourself?"
The spy trembled uncontrollably, brushing against the blade, leaving a trace of blood on his neck.
"At the moment of drunkenness, it is truly unsportsmanlike to strike fatally."
Lou Jingzhi leisurely got up and walked towards me, taking the sword from my hand.
The spy was about to breathe a sigh of relief and kowtow in gratitude, but Lou Jingzhi turned around and thrust the sword straight through the spy's chest.
"Drag him away."
"Lou Jingzhi, you heartless beast!"
"Hasn't The Grand Princess seen through it long ago?"
I took the opportunity to snatch the sword while he was off guard, but he grabbed my wrist and locked it in front of him.
"Too bad, all bravado. You can't persuade your high and mighty father, can't hold onto your naive and ridiculous sister, and today, you can't save the loyal and righteous General Mu."
"Those who seek to accomplish great things should be ruthless. From the beginning, you were destined to be a loser."
"You insulted me and harmed me, all the past grievances, the Lonely Capital will retaliate one by one."
"A-Tang treated you well, don't you remember any of it?"
I looked at his twisted and ugly face, and the last trace of goodness in my heart collapsed in confusion.
"Childhood games of playing house, in whose eyes is it not a joke."
He threw the blood-stained sword to the ground, pulled me into his arms, and turned my head to look at the territorial map posted on the tent.
"Wei Ruyin, isn't this what you wanted? I'm giving you the chance to share the world with me."
"But it must be a lonely world!"
