Chapter 350 : [Autumn leaves in troubled times return to their roots] Waiting for a lifetime
"eleven"
"It's my fault, I failed to protect you"
He said it over and over again as if he would never say anything else again
She was scared, even more than when the ugly man bullied her just now. Finally, she completely broke free from the numb chaos.
She touched his face with her face, but rubbed his smooth and beautiful forehead with her head.
The sound of crying spread from his throat, "Long Lilie, I'm fine, he's fine... you're here."
Continuously tightening his hands around her back, he hugged her tightly. After a while, he slowly let go of her, held her face, and gently touched it with his face.
He stretched out his hand to wipe away her tears, and the two of them hugged each other tightly.
No sound, it seems, no need to make a sound
After a while, Long Lilie stretched out his hand to caress the unevenness on her face, and asked softly, "Who hurt you?" He would chop that person into pieces.
She heard the instability in his voice clearly. She lowered her head and thought about the scene that she would never forget in her life, "Liu Jing and I took several other shadow guards to put the banknotes stuffed in the dry food.
After being taken out of the palace, we took a carriage out of the city and switched to walking when we reached the foot of Qianqu Mountain. There were many bandits in that section and our carriage would attract attention."
"Suddenly, there was chaos. A dark group of people on horseback surrounded us. They didn't seem to want to steal money, but they just looked at us with fascination. One of the shadow guards suddenly screamed, and the group was teasing her.
She resisted and exposed the jade bracelet on her wrist. I was completely bored at the time. I didn’t expect that she was still hiding it. Liu Jing and I glanced at each other. We knew we couldn’t hide it from those people, so Liu Jing protected us.
I'll fight out..."
"But how could she stand up to so many people on her own? I was pregnant as I watched the accompanying shadow guards being taken advantage of by those people one by one. I thought, rather than being insulted by those people, it would be better to die and be clean.
Jing suddenly said: "Mother, Liu Jing can't help you anymore." She scratched my face with the knife in her hand. In that gap, many blades came towards her. She held my hand tightly and said
:'The empress must live, Liu Jing will go find the emperor right now' She was covered in blood and tried her best to snatch the horse of one of the bandits..."
Long Lilie's heart twitched, and he pressed her head into his arms with his big hands. Eleven's voice came softly from his arms, "Is Liu Jing dead...?"
"I wanted to help you, but instead of helping you, I even harmed her..."
Hearing the misery in her voice, he became more restless and anxious. When he touched the window, the moon was sparse and the sky was getting darker. After this period of darkness passed, it would be dawn. There was a faint uneasiness in his heart, as if something was going on.
If it's going to happen - you have to get out of here quickly
Long Lilie suddenly frowned slightly, "You are here, don't come out."
He gently opened the door and walked out. The sound he heard just now was indeed correct. Under the dim moonlight, there was a person standing in the courtyard, but it was the shadow guard.
Long Lilie asked calmly: "Why are you here?"
The shadow guard looked panicked and suddenly knelt down with a plop, muttering: "Master, I'm sorry for you."
Long Lilie frowned. He had sharp ears and eyes, and immediately changed his expression. He smiled coldly, quickly returned to the woodshed, and picked up Shiyi by the waist.
"Long Lilie?" Eleven was slightly startled. Long Lilie lowered his head and touched her forehead, "Let's leave now!"
Fireworks light leaked in from the gap in the door, and the sound outside was loud and startling, but Long Lilie calmly carried her out.
In the courtyard and in the corridor, the lights were bright, some were holding swords, some were holding torches high, and hundreds of shadow guards were surrounding them, kneeling aside in a panic, with tears in their eyes.
This shadow guard betrayed them!
Eleven's heart tightened, and he immediately raised his eyes to look at Long Lilie, only to see that he was still calm.
