"They want the palace to come down and negotiate with us?"

Hong Xiao washed his face in disbelief. At this time, Duan Chengxuan had just come down from the battlefield to count the number of people and teach the generals a lesson. The news of Cheng Shan had yet to reach the ears of the Prince.

At this moment, he only looked at Hong Xiao from his tent. "You trust that Your Highness even more than I do, but at this moment, that Your Highness is not only preparing to establish a shrine at the Fallen Water Barrier, he even wants to be the third prince's lobbyist."

"I don't know about all this nonsense, but since the prince believes, I do. I remember that Sanin taught me before." Hong Xiao threw the cloth onto the rack, causing it to tremble.

Cheng Shan expressionlessly placed the letter on the table, and then said: "This time, the ones escorting His Highness are Sang Ning and Su Yuwan."

"Su Yu Wan? Is it because my ears aren't good? " Hong Xiao stopped.

"Your Highness seems to like Su Yuwan very much now." After Chengshan said this, he left. He believed that Hong Xiao could keep a close eye on this secret letter.

Hong Xiao scratched his head and thought for a long time. He only remembered that when they first met, Su Yuwan was a haughty and overbearing little miss. She was normally capable of anything under the command of the Prince.

But how could it be? Shouldn't meeting a love rival cause one's eyes to go red?

When Duan Chengxuan entered, his entire body was covered in blood and grime, Hong Xiao hurriedly told him about this matter.

"Clang —"

The Zhanmadao broke a wooden frame at the side, and Hong Xiao dodged to the side, his shoulders hunched.

The hair on his head was in complete disarray, but Hong Xiao didn't dare to make a single joke. The tent flap was suddenly pulled open by someone, and before the little soldier could enter, Hong Xiao waved his hand, signaling him to leave quickly. However, the new recruit obediently saluted and opened his mouth behind Duan Chengxuan's back, "Your highness, His Highness the Third Prince has sent a letter over."

As soon as he said that, Hong Xiao snatched the letter and signaled for the recruits to leave. He then said carefully, "Your highness, how about …"

"Read it." Duan Chengxuan's calm voice ruthlessly struck Hong Xiao's heart.

He restrained his actions and opened the letter without saying a word. After hesitating for a while, he said with a troubled expression, "Why don't you, your highness …"

"Read it."

Hong Xiao had no choice but to brace himself and say, "In half a month, the new and old lovers will gather together."

After a moment of silence, Hong Xiao's veins popped. He couldn't walk forward now, nor could he take a step back.

After who knows how long, Cheng Shan opened the curtain and walked in. Seeing Hong Xiao looking as if he was about to face a great enemy, he said respectfully, "My lord, although Ai Yan's lackeys have not made much of a move, the border guards behind us all hope to surround us. The food supply has stopped, and the water supply is far from enough, but the Third and Ninth Princes have no one to control."

Putting his hands on the edge of the table, Duan Cheng Xuan pondered for a long time before speaking. "We can only defend against external enemies. After half a month, we'll welcome them and instruct the people inside to properly block Yu'er for at least a month."

Everything Gu Danyan did was weird, even he couldn't completely understand it.

"Perhaps that Your Highness came for the water map from that day. After all, she also cares about the method of immortality." Cheng Shan opened his mouth at the right time, half-kneeling on the ground: "I beg that Your Highness does not allow this."

"Right." Duan Chengxuan let out a muffled grunt of agreement, then went around the table without looking back. He returned to the table with a calm expression and flipped through the documents and battle report.

It was as if nothing had happened.

Outside the border was the deep forest and the vast open area. It was especially cold in winter.

She did not even glance at Sanning as she spoke to him. She only had Yue Qing and Su Yuwan taking care of her in the carriage, but she had slept for a much longer period of time than when she was awake.

Mu Qing came to the clinic from time to time and could only sigh: "With her body, she doesn't even know how many lives she has. Naturally, it's hard to know why this is the case. Let's take it one step at a time."

After he finished speaking, he would always look over Yue Qing's shoulder at Su Yuwan who was in the carriage.

As for Su Yuwan, she only nodded slightly before pulling up the curtain and hiding in a place that Mu Qing couldn't see. The coldness in her eyes was even sharper than the cold winter wind.

Gu Danyan slowly woke up. She was already used to Su Yu Wan's mask. She laid on the side with her legs out of reach. She groaned in frustration and said: "How many more days until we reach the border?"

"In two days." Yue Qing said this when she got on the car. When she saw Gu Danyan's disheveled appearance, she felt that it was inappropriate, "Do you want to wash up?"

"No need, let me sleep a little longer." Gu Liuyan raised her hand from the cushion. Her body wasn't exhausted, but this bumpy journey had already taken half of her life, and she had to take some time to deal with these complicated people. It would be troublesome even if she thought about it and had a good night's sleep.

The journey of two days was not long, but when she was pulled up by someone with a blanket, Gu Liuyan was still dazed for a moment. When she finally opened her eyes, the sunlight above her head blinded her eyes. She subconsciously covered her snow-white arms with the blanket and asked: "Have you arrived?"

Two powerful arms held her firmly, and Duan Chengxuan brought her back into the tent with a dark expression without saying a word. Hong Xiao was only responsible for stopping Yue Qing, while Chengshan had already brought Su Yuwan to his side. Only Gu Zixian followed behind Duan Chengxuan, and couldn't help finding it funny.

It was truly laughable that the three women of the Jing King's life were gathered in such a place.

Gu Mingyan was carried back to the tent and placed on the soft couch, yet she only smiled as she raised his hands and placed them on Duan Chengxuan's shoulders the moment Gu Zixian entered the door. His voice was like that of a little cat as it spilled out of her throat and carried a slight smile on it: "Look how much you love me."

Gu Zixian watched in astonishment as half of Gu Pingyan's body borrowed Duan Chengxuan's shoulder to exert some strength, and with some difficulty, he raised his head and placed a kiss on Duan Chengxuan's chin. She did not feel warmth, he only felt disgust and anger.

Duan Chengxuan heard his clearly, and he only pulled his into his embrace. The anger from that day instantly vanished like smoke into thin air. "You prepared again this time …"

"Naturally, I'm here to save you." Gu Liuyan spoke with confidence.

But in the next moment, Duan Chengxuan's two white wrists were easily restrained by a hand. "You said the same thing to the Third Prince, right? You said that you were helping him."

"Your uncle and nephew are both smart." Gu Danyan restrained the smile on his face and looked at him seriously: "Immortality is not a lie, but it can't be considered as living."
