C385 Great Powers

The melting of the snow, the return of spring to the earth, and the revival of all living things, all of these revealed a lively face.

A tender green bud slowly grew out from the branch, and the flower bud also bloomed.

The cold winter was over, and the warm spring had arrived.

Xie Qingrong stood on top of the city gate tower, a burst of light wind blew past her hair, today she was dressed in casual clothes, it was simple and refreshing, as though she was looking at someone from afar.

The Black Tortoise had already returned to the profound mechanism long ago, and had decided to take care of everything once more. Everything within the capital could not leave the control of the Black Tortoise.

Xie Qingrong's ears slightly moved, as if she could hear the voice that came from the wind.

In the distance, the sounds of horses' hooves could be heard. As time passed, the sound of horses' hooves slowly approached. Xie Qingrong's eyes lit up. A horse slowly galloped in from the distance, on the horse sat Xuanyuan Chen, whom he had not seen for a long time.

For some reason, Xie Qingrong felt that his eyes were burning hot, as though some sand had entered his eyes. She rubbed his eyes with all her might, and smiled towards Xuanyuan Chen's direction.

The smile at the corner of his mouth seemed to merge with the bright sunlight and burst into bright light.

Xuanyuan Chen only felt that his eyes lit up when he saw Xie Qingrong, as if he had grown a bit more in the days that he did not know about.

The killing intent and bloodlust that once pervaded her body was now completely gone. Her body seemed to have been reborn anew, filled with righteousness. However, it also carried along with it the solemn and serene feeling of a battlefield.

Before it was in front of Xie Qingrong, Xuanyuan Chen had already tapped his toes lightly. Using a light movement technique, he slowly flew to the city gate tower and stood in front of Xie Qingrong.

He hugged Xie Qingrong tightly in his embrace, buried under her shoulders and took a deep breath.

It was so fragrant.

It had been a long time since he last touched Xie Qingrong at such a close distance, and it had been a long time since he held Xie Qingrong like this as well.

It was as if they had been separated for a month.

The yearning continued to spread.

"A Rong, how are your injuries? Have you left any scars? " Just as Xuanyuan Chen released his hand, he asked Xie Qingrong a series of questions.

Xie Qingrong raised her eyebrows and smiled, then said: "It's fine, it's already completely recovered, there's no need to worry."

Xuanyuan Chen nodded his head in relief.

No one knew that when he found out that Xie Qingrong was heavily injured behind him, yet he insisted on fighting with his injuries, the hatred in his heart was extremely strong. He hated how powerless he was against him, and he actually needed a woman to help him defend the Heavenly Saint.

If it wasn't because of Mo Bei's situation, he wanted to rush to the Jiang Prefecture to take the hit for her, but he couldn't.

The responsibility of his body was always pressing down on him, not allowing him to be distracted in the slightest.

"Is Mo Bei okay? If you come out so rashly and Wu Huan invades us, wouldn't that mean … " Xie Qingrong asked worriedly.

Xuanyuan Chen fondled Xie Qingrong's hair lovingly and said softly, "Mo Bei, General Xie, Lin Mu and the huge army of three hundred thousand, there is no need to worry at all. Furthermore, with Gongsun Heng's birthday celebration, Mo Yun from the Mo family would definitely not miss the appointment. "

Xie Qingrong heard and nodded.

Indeed, since Wu Huan and the Chu Country were still working together, if the Crown Prince of Chu was given a new lease in life, then Wu Huan, the ally, would not send anyone over.

Therefore, Wu Huan and Mo Bei could be considered safe for the time being.

"Let's go." We have to leave quickly as well, otherwise we won't be in time. " Xuanyuan Chen carried Xie Qingrong's slim waist and flew down the city gate tower with her, where the two horses had already been waiting for a long time.

He seemed bored from waiting and kept kicking the rocks beneath him.

There were no obstacles along the way.

By chance, he met Qi Yun.

It was as if Qi Yun was going to the Chu Country by himself. Xuanyuan Chen held onto the reins in one hand and Xie Qingrong's hand in the other, and laughed: "Is the Regent King heading to the Chu Country for his birthday banquet?"

Qi Yun waved his fan, and said with a slight smile: "Naturally, it's to attend the birthday banquet. This king has yet to congratulate Prince Chen for obtaining the position of crown prince and has not prepared any gifts for now.

Qi Yun waved the fan in a very elegant manner, like a young master from a noble family with an elegant demeanor. However, no matter how lightly Shen Haoxuan waved the fan, his body always carried a sense of indifference.

Xuanyuan Chen would naturally not be unhappy over such a small matter, and laughed: "The Regent and the Old Man and A Rong can be considered to have gotten to know each other, and furthermore, A Rong's sister is the doctor of Yue Country, so no matter what, it can be considered fate. Whatever gift it is, let's skip it. "

Qi Yun squinted his eyes and chuckled: "Your Highness is indeed straightforward. Since Your Highness, the princess' consort and this duke are both heading towards the Chu Country, why don't we go together? On the way we can not only have companions, but also help each other, what does Your Highness think? "

Hearing that, Xuanyuan Chen looked at Xie Qingrong, and from Xie Qingrong's eyes, he saw two words of agreement, and directly agreed to it: "I think that the Lord Regent's suggestion is good, too, so please advise."

Although Xuanyuan Chen was not too happy that his world with Xie Qingrong had been destroyed by others, but this was something that Xie Qingrong had agreed to do, so he could not say much.

Along the way, the three of them rode their horses at random, travelling day and night simultaneously.

Because the birth of Crown Prince of Chu was near, all those who entered the Chu Country's capital, regardless of whether they were merchants or women, or even those who came to attend the banquet, they were all subject to scrutiny.

It was to prevent any kind of disaster from happening.

When Xie Qingrong, Xuanyuan Chen and Qi Yun were making their inquiries, Qi Yun sighed with emotion: "Chu Country is indeed worthy of being a great country in the world. It's only a birthday banquet, yet you've already made it so grand.

Qi Yun's words could be considered to belittle Gongsun Heng's methods. When the scholar at the side heard this, he disagreed: "The three of you don't seem to want to be locals; Just now, when I heard this young master's evaluation of our Lord, it didn't seem to be very reasonable. "

"Yes." Xie Qingrong replied indifferently, "Why do you say that?"

Seeing that the three were listening attentively, the scholar did not keep them in suspense and smiled: "Our Chu Country is so prosperous today, it's all thanks to Your Highness. If not for Your Highness' rule over the years, we would not have been able to live a life of luxury and prosperity."

With that, the scholar left, not caring about the three's thoughts and opinions.

Xuanyuan Chen pursed his lips, his gaze sweeping the surroundings. He noticed that everyone had a slight smile on their face, as though life was extremely blissful and there was not a trace of worry.

Her heart became even more wary of Gongsun Heng's abilities.

Xie Qingrong had also noticed this situation, and said indifferently: "Chen, we cannot underestimate Gongsun Heng, it is better to be cautious when facing him."

He had already experienced Gongsun Heng's techniques at the hunting grounds, it was extremely efficient, but it could take a person's life, causing him to have nowhere to hide or defend.
