Although she had no memory of her past self, she had heard that her previous self was the Emperor's flesh and blood, and that she had an older brother who treated her like a treasure. She clearly remembered that at the end of the friendly meeting some time ago, the Kingdom Minister had brought her a lot of specialties from that side as well as some small things that her previous self had loved. What was deeply etched in her memories were the old Emperor's letter and the bracelet that her older brother had brought her … The letter was filled with yearning and guilt. Some parts of it were even stained with blood. It looked like tears that were falling down. That bracelet was also something she felt extremely warm about …
The minister's words were sincere, and his eyes were filled with worry and pain for Liru. He said that the old emperor was no longer as healthy as he was in the past. His Highness the crown prince had to stay behind to take care of him, which was why they hadn't personally come …
Even though she was thousands of miles away and had never seen him before, she could feel that strong longing. It was for no other reason but because of this precious family love, she didn't want anything to happen to them.
"Princess, your subordinate has already said so. Are you still going out?" General Li cried out anxiously as he watched Li Ruo leave without turning back. Even Xuanyuan Mo struggled to get up.
"It's too hot. I'll go to the door and blow on it. All of you, hurry up!"
"Ai!" General Li's face lit up as he hurriedly replied. The princess must be shy.
"What are you still standing there for? Didn't I tell you to hurry up?" Watching his frail body gradually grow further and further away, even thoughtfully pulling the door shut for him, Xuanyuan Mo's eyes flashed with contemplation.
"Mistress, you're not praising me? At least I helped you keep the princess here! " As General Li applied the medicine, he chattered on and on.
"Well, thank you!"
"I knew it, master's heart has always been with me." "Only then did General Li feel that it was complete, and he carefully examined Xuanyuan Mo's wounds." Tsk tsk, Master. This little servant is normally so obedient, why would I have such a hard time dealing with you today?
"Mistress, did you not see? Your butt, waist, and legs are truly too horrible to look at!" General Li continued to mutter under his breath, but Xuanyuan Mo didn't reply. Although the pain from the medicine had provoked every nerve in his body, it couldn't even compare to the pain from his back when he had just left.
It was already late winter, how could it possibly be hot?
If there were no coal fire or stove in this room, it would be very cold.
Outside, Liru was lost in thought as he listened to General Li. When General Li had said that, she had agreed without any doubt, because in her heart, General Li was just a sunny boy, but she had never thought that he would have such a cute side to him. But after thinking about it for a bit, it was true.
A cold wind blew and Liru hugged herself tightly. She leaned against the wall behind her and smiled, but her smile was soon frozen.
"Do you have wine?" He felt irritated and wanted to drink.
"Drinking is prohibited in the military camp …" The soldier guarding the door was trembling in fear.
"Forget it!" Liruo gave a faint smile and rubbed her hands together with all her might when she saw the tree next to her. She was like a cat, and in just a few breaths, she had already reached a dozen meters high tree branch.
"Keep watching! Be careful that your great master will dig out your eyes later!" It was rare for Li Ruo to joke around. The only reason she was like this was because she really didn't like the way others looked at her, especially the worshipful expression on the little soldier's face. She used to find it very enjoyable, but now she only hated it.
The soldier hurriedly retracted his gaze and continued to stand guard.
"Hypnosis is of no use to me at all. Don't waste your energy!" She remembered that this was the reply that Yu Rui had given after discovering her intentions.
"I also advise you not to act rashly. With your current martial arts, I can take you down with a little finger!" While speaking, Yu Yan suddenly opened his eyes. If one were to look closely, one would see that his eyes were beautiful like the vast night sky. However, if one were to look closely, they would be unable to extricate themselves.
Even if she wasn't willing to admit it or to believe it, she had no choice but to admit that Yu Yan's hypnotism was many times better than hers.
She wasn't a professional hypnotist in the first place, but as a secret service agent, besides her own professional skills, she had to learn some other skills. When she first learned this, it wasn't because she liked it, but because it would help her solve a case.
"Do you still remember it?" Yu Ran gently pinched the stem of the Water Immortal. However, even though it was very light, the Water Immortal's soft and tender body was still unable to withstand his little strength. The jade-green liquid flowed along his hands and dripped onto the ground.
"Remember?" Li Ruo was suspicious. They had never met before, so why would they remember her? Did she really hate the Water Immortal for some special reason?
"That's true. The current you, how could you possibly remember!" He smiled faintly, as if he had already expected Li Ruo's reaction. The reason why he asked was just to ask casually. He didn't expect Ruo Ruo to remember.
"We used to know each other?"
"It doesn't matter if you've met me before, nor does it matter if you don't remember me now. What's important is that in the future, I will definitely make you feel that I'm engraved in your memories!" "Haha."
After saying this, Yu Ruo burst into laughter once again. His laughter was overbearing, filled with the intent to win. Li Ruo could only feel loathing in her heart.
Yes, he hated his smile just like he hated daffodils, and even hated him as a person.
"Farewell!" Li Ruo picked up the medicine bag on the table. She never wanted to see this person again.
"Do you think you can escape?" He did not mind that Li Ruo had already prepared to leave, because he knew that she would definitely be suspicious after he said those words.
Indeed, Li Ruo had stopped.
"Escaping what? And why should I run away? "
"Narcissus blooms only in winter!" However, it was clear that Yu Ruo intended to push the issue to the end. He only threw his doubts to Li Ruo, but didn't intend to explain. Instead, he just replied with some weird words.
After that, no matter how Li Ruo asked, he felt as if he was lost in his own thoughts. Li Ruo saw him take the pots of water fairies one by one, and then shatter them bit by bit. He had an infatuated look in his eyes, and Li Ruo realized that there was another person in this world whom she couldn't understand.
Li Ruo finally turned and left, her footsteps somewhat panicked.
Thus, she didn't notice that when she turned around, Yu Rui had already opened her eyes and was looking at her.
"Narcissus blooms only in winter!" She pressed her back against the big tree and carefully thought over Yu Hua's words. In the end, she concluded that there must be some special meaning behind his words, and him shattering all the daffodils right in front of her also seemed to be hinting at something …
But, what could it be?
Was it related to her previous self, or herself, or was it related to her transmigration?
When Li Ruo raised her head, the Big Dipper had already connected into a huge ladle. The sky was still the same sky. She didn't know if it was also the same sky as the twenty-first century.
"Didn't you already agree to stay inside? Why did you climb up the tree again?!" The tree branch behind her quivered, and she quickly regained her senses. Xuanyuan Mo had already appeared behind her back. Although his injuries weren't shallow, it didn't seem to have much effect on him.
"I'm just going up to calm down."
"Is Yu Yan making things difficult for you?!"
"Nope." If one were to glance downwards, if one were to directly jump, would something happen to her, or would they be able to throw her back into the modern era?
"What are you doing?" Xuanyuan Mo held her body tightly as she fell, her body pressed against his chest with incomparable gentleness.
Looking at Xuanyuan Mo's furious gaze and the solid floor beneath her feet, she felt a little shaken. That's right, what was she doing?
That was what she had thought, but she did not intend to do it. She came back to herself and jerked her head.
Her vision finally cleared up. Just who was it that controlled her thoughts?
Liru's eyes became very cold. She had never been a pessimist, nor did she believe that falling from a tree would allow her to return to modern times. But just now, she clearly had a moment of absent-mindedness.
"No, I was dizzy just now and lost my balance!" Liruo shook her head. At this moment, it was hard to tell if Xuanyuan Mo was an enemy or a friend. She didn't want to suspect him, but just now, they were the only two on the tree.
Xuanyuan Mo was the person who had the most chance of attacking her, but it seemed like he had no reason to do so. Furthermore, after knowing her for so long, she had never heard of Xuanyuan Mo practising such an enchanting mind art. Could it be that it was Yu Yan?
Li Ruo laid in Xuanyuan Mo's embrace and calmly looked around. There was no one around her other than the soldiers on guard, there was no one suspicious and she did not feel like they were being watched.
Everything seemed very normal.
"Forget it, it's cold outside. Let's go in!" Seeing that Liru did not seem to be lying, and that she was acting so obediently, Xuanyuan Mo sighed softly and carried Liruo straight into the house.
If not for the sweat on his face dripping onto Li Ruo's face, Li Ruo might not have noticed this. At this moment, Xuanyuan Mo had already restrained himself to the limit and his handsome face was currently covered in fine beads of sweat.
