After seeing Lan Jiu leaving, Xiao Tian Yuan turned around and walked in the opposite direction. He shouted, "I'm here."

When the soldiers heard Xiao Tian Yuan's shout, they immediately ran over. "General, are you alright?"

Behind Xiao Tianyuan, Xiao Tian Yuan held his arm as blood flowed out from the wound on his arm. "I'm fine."

"Found the general!" The soldiers clustered around Xiao Tian Yuan as they returned to the tent.

"How is General Xiao?" Fang Zinan asked in a deep voice.

"Reporting to the great general, General Xiao is injured."

Fang Zinan glanced at Xiao Tianyuan and commanded the soldiers: "Quick, ask the military doctor to treat General Xiao's wounds."

Xiao Tian Yuan waved his hand. "There's no need. It's just a light injury."

Fang Zinan sighed and waved his hand at the soldiers, "All of you can leave. I have something to ask General Xiao."

When there was only Xiao Tian Yuan left, Fang Zi Nan asked, "You were the one who intentionally let Nan Yu Lan go, right?"

Being seen through by Fang Zinan was a helpless matter, so Xiao Tianyuan could only nod his head.

"You still want to protect her when she wants to kill you so many times?" The corner of Fang Zinan's lips curled up into a cold smile.

"Just like how you defend Princess Rong, I also want to protect the people I like!" Xiao Tianyuan also said, "But I really have to thank you for what happened today."

"Thank me for what?"

"Thank you for letting me leave. I know you did." Xiao Tian Yuan glanced at Fang Zi Nan, "However, the person Southern Yu Lan is going to deal with this time wasn't me, but you. You have to be careful." Even if it wasn't Nan Yu Lan, there would still be other assassins coming to deal with you. "

Although he had lost a lot of blood, it was only a superficial wound. It seemed that Nan Yulan had shown mercy, and she couldn't help but smile: "Luckily, the person she is going to deal with this time isn't you, I don't want to see my good friend's blood splatter." As she spoke, she took out a Gold Healing Pill and applied it to Xiao Tianyuan.

Xiao Tianyuan looked at the sword wound on his arm and his gaze turned gentle. "She's finally shown mercy to me."

"If I show you mercy this time, I might take your life the next time." Fang Zinan sighed and helped Xiao Tianyuan sit down, "Is this worth it?"

"Nothing is worth it. I only do what I should." Although the wound was painful, his heart was warm. After all, he had seen Nan Yulan here again. Although he had given her a sword strike, the pain and the sword mark were like a gentle sword strike that caused ripples to form in his calm heart once more.

Fang Zinan couldn't hold back his laughter. "I was very happy to see you receive this blow. To think that liking someone could actually make a man like Brother Xiao soften his feelings. It seems like you still have feelings for him!"

"Are you making fun of me?"

"I don't dare, I'm just speaking the truth."

Xiao Tian Yuan caressed his wound and looked at the curtain. "I wonder how she is doing?"

"Don't worry, she'll definitely be fine." As Fang Zinan spoke, he stood up, "It's getting late. You should rest, I'm leaving now."

Xiao Tianyuan also stood up. "I can't sleep. I want to go out and take a look."

"I can't sleep either. Why don't we go together?"

The two of them walked out of the tent into the quiet of the night. After the previous charge by Nanyu Lan, the camp returned to its previous tranquility. A bright moon hung in the sky with countless stars in it, giving off the feeling that the sky was extremely high and the moon was exceptionally bright.

After walking along the camp for a while, Fang Zinan looked up into the starry sky and sighed: "The moon is my hometown. Unknowingly, we have already been out for more than a month. I wonder if Qing Er is doing well!"

"Don't worry. With Princess Hua-Yang's intelligence, there won't be any problems." Xiao Tianyuan was also a little worried. "Right now, I'm only worried about Ying Ying."

"What will happen to Ying Ying?"

Xiao Tianyuan looked at the exceptionally bright star in the sky and solemnly said, "King Xuan has always had intentions against Ying Ying. If we leave now, I'm really afraid that he will harm Ying Ying."

Fang Zinan nodded in realization. "Didn't the empress reject the engagement last time? I don't think King Xuan will violate Ying Ying again."

"That's what we thought, but King Xuan is so cunning, I'm really afraid …" As he said this, Xiao Tianyuan raised his head and glanced at Fang Zinan, "I'm afraid that tonight's matter is also related to him."

Fang Zinan neither objected nor agreed. He only said: "There is no evidence. We cannot just suspect anything unless we have evidence."

"Ning Wang's previous incident was also caused by Nan Yulan. Now that she is here to kill you, the person who ordered her must be either King Xuan or King Dingdang. Although we have no evidence, we cannot let our guard down. " "Right now, we are getting closer and closer to Eastcalm City. Soon, we can help King Yu recover his lost territory. I'm afraid that things will change."

"We should be careful. It should be fine …" Fang Zinan muttered to himself, "Furthermore, we are so close to Eastwood City, and they are all under King Eastwood's command. Perhaps things might not be as bad as you think."

Xiao Tianyuan nodded. "Perhaps I'm overthinking it …"

"Let's go, it's getting late. We still have a battle to fight tomorrow. Let's go back and rest." As Fang Zinan said this, he walked back and saw Dongfang Luoli walking towards him.

"Princess Liu Li, you're still awake?"

"I heard there was an assassin ambushing you. How is it?" Dong Fang Luo Li's face was full of concern.

Fang Zinan shifted his gaze to Xiao Tianyuan, "I'm fine. General Xiao was the one that got injured."

"General Xiao is injured?"

Xiao Tianyuan replied disapprovingly, "A superficial wound is fine."

Dong Fang Luo Li blinked her eyes and asked: "Did you guys see clearly who the assassin is? Is it someone from the Beiyue Kingdom? "

"Princess, the assassin was wearing a veil at that time. We didn't see it clearly. However, her ambush this time was unsuccessful, and she won't act rashly again." Fang Zinan helped to smooth things over for Xiao Tianyuan.

"No matter what, you must be careful." Dong Fang Luo Li was still worried, she was actually more concerned about Fang Zi Nan.

"Princess, General, I'll go back and rest first. You two take your time." Xiao Tianyuan bid his farewell and left.

Fang Zinan wanted to return to his tent, but seeing that Dong Fang Luo Li had no intention of going back, he could only ask, "Princess, are you still not going to rest?"

"When I think about how we can return to East Peace City tomorrow, I feel so excited that I can't fall asleep." This was the truth. Dong Fang Luo Li was indeed very excited at the thought of this, but to be able to chat with Fang Zi Nan was also a very joyful thing.

Fang Zinan smiled, "Princess, you think too much. The Eastern Peace City is just around the corner. Tomorrow, we can take it all down."

"I'm worried about something else." Dong Fang Luo Li smiled embarrassedly, "I was just thinking that this war will soon end, and you guys should be returning to the Southern Marsh Country soon?"

"Naturally."

"Could it be …" Don't you want to stay here for a few more days? " Ying Ying looked expectantly at Fang Zinan, her eyes brighter than the stars.

"Princess, I still have an imperial concubine waiting for me at home. I've already missed her for so long after leaving her for so long, so …" Fang Zinan glanced at Dong Fang Luo Li: "This battle is over, I need to go back as soon as possible."

"What if I can't bear to leave you?"

"If Princess really thinks this way, then you can come to our Southern Marsh for a few days to play. Our people will definitely welcome you."

"Really!?" Dong Fang Luo Li laughed happily: "We agreed that after the war ends, I will follow you all to the Southern Marsh Country to play."
