It had been half a month since Xi Cuo and the King left Fanbo City, and the situation of the battle continued to be transmitted from the front, making the situation of the West Cold even more dire. Every day, there would be a large number of refugees entering the Fanbo City, so Zhuang Li activated his King Xiao's Palace to allow the refugees to stay in and provide them with food.

In an instant, the hall was filled with people sleeping in the corridors. Zhuang Li felt sad when she saw that the youths had all gone to war, leaving behind only the elderly, women, and children who were waiting for their food.

Qing You counted the refugees and the news in front of him throughout the day as she helped Grandma Jingshui cook porridge for everyone in the kitchen. Zhuang Li arranged for doctors to treat the injured. She was extremely busy. She looked up at the dark winter sky. She slowly circled around the sky as if she was looking for the owner of the letter.

Not long after, it saw Zhuang Li descend gracefully and gracefully, and stably stopped on Zhuang Li's arm.

Zhuang Li originally thought that this letter was news about the battle ahead, but when it landed on Zhuang Li's shoulder, she realized that this letter was different.

It was Luo Lihua's Condor...

Zhuang Li quickly took out the letter from the bamboo tube beneath her feet. Then, he happily called for Ge Ya.

"Pear Blossom and Young Master Loulan have already returned to the West Cold. It's just that the situation is too chaotic for them to enter the Fanbo City right now. "Settle down in the nearby Holy Xiao City. When the time is right, immediately come and reunite with us."

"Even though the situation is so dilapidated, with Luo Li words and Young Master Loulan, a merchant dancing prostitute, we can't help too much with West Cold. In the end, however, having a friend can still give us ideas." Ge Ya was also overjoyed. There were too few things that could make her happy recently. The hundreds of refugees residing in King Xiao's Palace were already in a mess, there was no longer the dignity of the palace.

The only thing he was afraid of was that the capital city was already in such a state. Presumably, the border territories had already turned into a mess.

With the consolation of Luo Lihua coming back, Zhuang Li's heart felt so warm that it was as if she had the feelings of a family member. After all, the Young Master Loulan had many spies in the area, so he would definitely bring them some news.

Although they heard the cries of the refugees in the city, the West Cold army had been forced to retreat step by step, and now they were retreating towards the Aroma Swallowing City. If he failed to defend the Aroma Swallowing City, there would definitely be more refugees …

It was said that one of the frontlines of the Great Phoenix had a General Li who was an expert in producing Elite Armaments. The army that he led was extremely aggressive, and many of the West Cold soldiers were at a disadvantage because of him.

Zhuang Li could not bear to listen any longer. She did not know how long Xi Cuo and the old king were able to hold on, or whether they would be able to survive.

At night, Zhuang Li did not sleep soundly, she only hugged the blanket on the bed and leaned it on the chair to rest her head. Qing You was also extremely tired, hence she curled up into a ball in the corner of the bed.

After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, Zhuang Li suddenly heard an anxious knock on the door accompanied by crying. She quickly got up, put on a jacket and hurried to open the door. Ge Ya threw herself onto her body.

"Second Brother is in trouble. father died in battle too … "

"What did you say?" Xi Cuo? "King?"

Behind Ge Ya was a guard whose body was drenched in blood. Zhuang Li's hands were also covered in blood, and immediately felt that the situation was not good.

Ge Ya did not bother to explain anymore as she pulled Zhuang Li towards her pavilion.

"Great Phoenix knows of the secret passageway in the Aroma Swallowing City. His Highness Xi Cuo has been robbed right on the spot. The King has died in battle, and we had to risk our lives to send the severely injured Prince back to his Fanbo City in the middle of the night … The prince is seriously hurt... At this point … "It's unknown whether he's dead or alive …"

Zhuang Li had never thought that seeing Xi Cuo in such a situation, he was lying on the bed, his armor stained with blood, without feeling anything, just like a corpse.

The doctor was bandaging him. The white gauze was continuously dyed red, almost covering him in layers. The basin beside him that was washing his hands was also filled with blood. Who knew how much of it had been left.

Adding in the news that the old king had died in battle, Ge Ya almost cried until she fainted.

"In that case, the Aroma Swallowing City have already been occupied?"

The guard lowered his head, unwilling to speak further.

"When His Highness Xi Cuo regained consciousness, he told us to definitely rush back into the Fanbo City to send you and Princess Ge Ya out of the Fanbo City. The Great Phoenix Army was about to arrive. "If you do not leave now, it will be too late!"

"I am the daughter of West Cold, the father has collapsed, my brother has collapsed, and I am the princess of West Cold, how can I leave!"

"Your Highness, this matter is to protect the royal blood, and is also Your Highness Xi Cuo's wish. I hope that you do not act rashly!"

The guard reached out to grab the eunuch and said, "Princess has offended many of you. Princess Xi Cuo knew that you would definitely not listen, but he also didn't want you to fall into the hands of Da Feng. That would also be an insult to our West Cold."

However, the person he was facing was a princess after all, so he didn't dare to seriously grab her and let her dodge.

Ge Ya turned and picked up a pair of scissors, pointing it at her neck, she said with an incomparably vicissitudes of life and grief …

"No one will be able to take me away. Nothing will happen to my West Cold, and Big Brother will be fine as well."

Zhuang Li quickly stood up and looked at Zhuang Li as she carefully comforted her …

"There's no problem, we won't leave, Xi Cuo won't leave either. Don't do anything stupid, you still have too many things to do right now."

That Ge Ya instantly softened up, the scissors fell to the ground and rolled to the side. Zhuang Li pulled her, "Go and guard outside, I have something to tell Xi Cuo.

She naturally had mixed feelings in her heart. She sat on the bedside and looked at the unconscious Xi Cuo in the bandage. This man in front of her, used to be such a brilliant prince. She even thought of marrying him …

If the West Cold had already been broken through, then it would probably only take two days for them to rush to the Fanbo City place. Since the Fanbo City had no power, they naturally had no chance of winning at all, and it wouldn't even take half a day before it was broken.

What Da Feng wanted was Ge Ya and the compromise he had with his West Cold. What should she do now?

It was the first time she took the initiative to hold Xi Cuo's hand. Those hands were badly mutilated, but today, it was warm and reliable.

"What should I do, Xi Cuo?"

Since she came to this world, Xi Cuo and his sister had practically become her support once he reached the West Cold. Now that they were in trouble, there was nothing he could do.

She closed her eyes, thinking how great it would be if none of this happened …

The morning sun had already risen. She pushed open the door and made her final decision. The first thing she saw was the guard waiting outside …

"Where's Ge Ya?"

"The princess went to Nanny Jingshui's room."

"Follow me," She quickly pushed open the door to nanny's room. Ge Ya still sat there, stunned as if she had been possessed, with a small bottle of medicine in front of her. nanny was standing behind her, looking the same as Ge Ya, unfazed by death. Zhuang Li immediately understood and pushed Ge Ya away.

"What are you doing? I said that Xi Cuo will be fine. You still have Xi Cuo, and the entire West Cold!"

Ge Ya also struggled as if she had gone mad, "I am the daughter of West Cold, so I naturally want to live and die with West Cold. If even West Cold is gone, what's the point of me going to Da Feng?"

Zhuang Li flipped the small bottle over and the water in it spilled all over the floor. In an instant, bubbles started to form on the ground.

"If you are the Ge Ya that I know, then don't give up now, have you forgotten? You still have me.

She stood up and pulled Ge Ya up, the nanny followed behind.

She walked all the way to the room where Xi Cuo was lying in, and backed Ge Ya up.

"As long as he is fine, you must live well."

"Big brother, big brother is already like this!"

"You should call him Your Majesty now …"

Ge Ya was dazed for a moment, and then she understood. It was as if she had seen hope again …

"Take Xi Cuo and go to the Holy Xiao City to look for Pear Blossom. She will arrange for all of you.

Only now did Ge Ya regain her senses. Her words were clear, carrying the majesty of a princess as she spoke with authority and authority …

"From today onwards, Xi Cuo will be the king of the nation of West Cold. The remaining warriors of the nation of West Cold will definitely follow him with their lives!"

The remaining soldiers and the maids in the room heard his words clearly, and they all knelt down to pay their respects to the new king.

"Time waits for no one, you guys hurry up and leave." Zhuang Li urged, and let the guards carry Xi Cuo who was still unconscious and bandaged.

"Little Li, what about you? You won't come with us? "

"I have my own arrangements. Don't worry, I will definitely calm the Phoenix Dynasty down for now."

Ge Ya was suspicious, as if she did not believe it, and still wanted to say something. However, Zhuang Li interrupted him: "Let's go right now. Holy Xiao City is going to look for Luo Lihua. Take care of yourself on the way, I'll come over to meet you after I finish my work."

Ge Ya had already sensed that something was amiss, and naturally, she was unwilling to comply. Zhuang Li shot a glance at the guard behind him, and at such a critical juncture, the guard naturally couldn't care less whether or not he offended his princess.

"Li …" She spoke softly and fell backwards into the arms of the imperial bodyguard.

Zhuang Li turned and asked Qing You.

"Do you want to go with them?"

"Of course I want to go with the young lady." As Qing You spoke, his eyes were filled with tears …

"What if I die for sure?"

"I also have to serve Miss."

" Qing You, from today onwards, you will have to call me your highness the princess. "
