"Mm. Alright."
Meng Hui nodded, she looked straight ahead, and did not ask anything.
She knew very well in her heart what Rong Er's death meant to him.
In this world, he no longer cared about anyone or anything that mattered to him. Therefore, regardless of whether he could topple Yan Clan or not, he would stake everything on this one bet.
Even if he were to die, he would not hesitate to do so. It was as he had said, this was his fate. If he could not escape, he could only continue forward.
She could not stop it, and she had no position to stop it.
Meng Hui thought very openly. If they met again, they would be enemies with different positions.
The corner of her mouth pulled out a bitter smile. She took a few deep breaths before the indescribable feeling of oppression in her heart was hidden away.
Sure enough, on that night, a few black-clothed men snuck into Meng Hui's tent. When they saw her, they immediately walked up to her. "Miss Meng, His Majesty ordered us to bring you back to the capital."
"Alright, let's go."
It was very quiet outside. The person who was supposed to be in charge of guarding Meng Hui was knocked unconscious on the ground by the secret guard.
The group of people took advantage of the darkness of the night to leave the military camp, but they were stopped midway.
Meng Hui recognized them, these were Liu Qian Xun's subordinates, even if Mo Rong Tian gave the order, these people would not listen.
"Leave this to me, you guys take Miss Meng away first."
The leader of the dark guards said to the other guards.
"Yes."
In an instant, the sword and saber clashed against each other, creating several streaks of white light in the air. The speed of the two sides was extremely fast, and no one could clearly see their movements; they could only hear the ear-piercing sound of metal colliding with each other.
Soon after, another group of people came over and fought against Liu Qian Xun's subordinates who had appeared at the start. Without asking, Meng Hui knew that these people were Mo Rong Tian's men.
"Miss Meng, follow us."
One of the secret guards took Meng Hui and was about to leave when she felt a gust of cold wind from the palm behind him, and aimed at his back, and struck his palm downwards. Even though the guard had realized it, the person was too fast, he had no time to dodge it.
Immediately after, a gust of wind shot towards Meng Hui. Meng Hui's martial arts, in front of the hidden guards, were not even worth mentioning, let alone the person behind him.
There was no way for her to dodge it. She only closed her eyes and waited for the person to receive the palm strike. Someone was a step ahead of her, blocking the palm strike right in front of her.
Meng Hui only felt the sound of bones breaking as the pungent smell of blood wafted up to her nose.
Raising his eyes in shock, he saw a pool of bright red blood on the chest of the person beside him. Under the contrast of the silver strands on his head, the red blood looked even more shocking.
Immediately after, another mouthful of fresh blood sprayed out from his mouth, staining his clothes red. The thick smell of blood made Meng Hui's entire heart tighten.
She cried out, wanting to stand in front of Mo Rong Tian, but he pulled her behind him.
He did not expect that Mo Rong Tian would block this palm for Meng Hui. Liu Qian Xun was stunned for a moment, as he looked at Mo Rong Tian's pale face in disbelief: "Your Highness, you …"
Mo Rong Tian ignored her and retreated with Meng Hui. The few guards who were in charge of saving Meng Hui also rushed to their front.
"Take Meng Hui and leave."
Mo Rong Tian spoke in a low and hoarse voice to the guards behind him.
The hidden guard glanced at Mo Rong Tian, then looked at Meng Hui, nodded, and quickly walked to him. "Miss Meng, let's go."
Meng Hui did not want to leave right now, she grabbed onto Mo Rong Tian's sleeves tightly, "Little White …"
"Hurry up!"
Mo Rong Tian shouted in a stern voice as he forcefully flung Meng Hui's hand away. He turned his head back to look at her, his serene and deep eyes showing signs of bidding her farewell. "Meng Hui, we will never see each other again."
Meng Hui's heart was violently shocked. Her eyes were completely red as she looked at Mo Rong Tian's resolute eyes, forcefully being pulled back step by step by the secret guard.
Never see you again...
Even if Meng Hui had known from the beginning that she would be enemies with Mo Rong Tian, after hearing Mo Rong Tian's words from her own ears, she still felt the suffocating pain in her heart. At the same time, she also clearly knew what kind of situation it was that she would see Mo Rong Tian again after he left.
"Let's go, Miss Meng."
The hidden guard brought Meng Hui and ran backwards. Behind the hidden guard, dealing with Liu Qian Xun's subordinates was not difficult at all, and coupled with the fact that they had Mo Rong Tian's trusted aides supporting them in the middle of the process, it was pretty smooth for them to take Meng Hui away.
When Liu Qian Xun's people could no longer catch up with Meng Hui, Liu Qian Xun called out to those people. With a cold and disappointed gaze, he looked at Mo Rong Tian and said, "Your Highness, there will be a day when you'll regret letting Meng Hui go."
Mo Rong Tian extended a finger and gently wiped the blood from the corner of his lips. He looked at Liu Qian Xun and smiled indifferently, "I will only regret if she stays here and gets injured."
Liu Qian Xun looked at the determination in Mo Rong Tian's eyes, and after pondering for a moment, he frowned and said: "I already said, love hurts people, why does Your Highness not understand."
Mo Rong Tian held onto his chest that was severely injured, not saying a word. He wanted to deny it, but he couldn't say a single word.
"These hidden guards have already lasted for at least one and a half months. If you really can't bear to let Meng Hui leave, then you won't have dragged things out until today."
Hearing that, Mo Rong Tian frowned, he opened his mouth, wanting to retort, but he was unable to say a single word.
Indeed, he had purposely stopped those people from approaching Meng Hui. When he thought that they wanted to bring Meng Hui away, his heart was filled with reluctance, and he could not help but rush out.
He clearly knew that letting Meng Hui leave was the best choice, but he was selfish enough to want to keep her for a while longer.
But now, Rong Er had died. The only reason why he was so persistent in this world, was to avenge her parents, her family, and to help the Mo family recover their glory.
Since this was the only path he had to take, he could no longer keep Meng Hui here.
"Master, you can rest assured. I will definitely take revenge for the royal father and mother, as well as for the Mo family. I will absolutely not disappoint you. So, please do not do anything else."
With that, he walked step by step in the direction of the camp. Blood slowly dripped from the corner of his mouth.
Yun Jiao Rong was buried within the imperial tomb. Half a month later, the Kaiser gave the order to confer the title of a compassionate and virtuous empress on Yun Jiao Rong. There were always voices of opposition among the crowd, and also under the insistence of the Kaiser, no one dared to speak again.
Why was being raised by the empress dowager herself? Because he was poisoned, his body was extremely weak, even with Lu Yuan He personally taking care of him, adding the various precious herbs in the palace, his bones did not improve at all. Fortunately, he was not weaker than before.
"It's too pitiful for Xun Er to be like this."
Liu Ruo Qing stood by the bedside and lamented.
