With He Lianjue's reminder beside her, Cen Xue realized her current identity. She was Phoenix, a saint of the Holy Moon Sect.
"Phoenix is here to see the King, and I hope that the King can forgive Phoenix for his rudeness just now," Cen Xue bowed slightly and said.
Helianzhi looked at her and searched for the name in his mind before he remembered who she was.
"Get up, I see you have been busy all night, you must be exhausted." Helianzhi turned around and did not look at her, his eyes were focused on these poisoned soldiers.
"Not tired, this is what Phoenix should do." Cen Xue was a little timid and didn't even dare to raise her head to look at him.
He Lianjue stood beside her and saw the look in her eyes. Is this still the Phoenix he knew at that time? Why is it different?
I can't say what the difference is. Her appearance is obviously that of Phoenix, but Phoenix has always been taciturn, and the feeling she gave people in the palace that time was completely different from what she is now. And this look in her eyes, if it weren't for this appearance
, he absolutely did not believe that this was the Phoenix.
In fact, after getting along with each other for the past two days, he also noticed it, but it was not obvious. However, Phoenix's expression was particularly strange today. The eyes she looked at Brother Wang were full of strong love!
Cen Xue was so focused on He Lianzhi that she didn't even notice that He Lianjue beside her had been looking at her. She stood there stupidly, looking at He Lianzhi who was only a few steps away from her.
Helianzhi's back was turned to him, but he could feel a fiery gaze staring at him from behind. After inspecting the soldiers in the tent, Helianzhi turned sharply and met Cen Xuena.
Affectionate eyes.
His sudden turn around made Cen Xue startled. He lowered his head in panic, and his mind went blank for a moment.
He Lianjue looked at her panicked eyes and felt more and more familiar. It was Cen Xue. Why did every detail of her movements and eyes look so similar to Cen Xue?
"Jue, let's go check out the next tent." Time seemed to have stopped at this moment, until Helianzhi's voice sounded again.
"Yes, Brother Wang, please come this way." He Lianjue looked back at Cen Xue.
He Lianzhi put his hands behind his back, as if ignoring Cen Xue's existence, but when he came to her side, he suddenly stopped, just paused, and continued walking forward.
Cen Xue could understand their reactions. What they saw in their eyes at this moment was not the original self, but a phoenix. After the two brothers left, Cen Xue looked at the soldiers in the tent in embarrassment, lowered her head and left too.
Helianzhi did not go to other tents to inspect as he had just said. After leaving the tent, he went directly back to the mansion, keeping silent all the way. This made Helianjue feel very strange, but he did not dare to ask directly.
"Your Majesty, we just received good news from the northwest district!" As soon as he stepped into the mansion, Qinglong hurriedly greeted him.
"Say—" He Lianzhi seemed to be in a bad mood. He didn't even bother to open the letter and directly ordered Qinglong to speak out.
"General Yuwen led 40,000 soldiers and horses, and has already disintegrated the tribal alliance that rebelled in the northwest. However, as a precaution, the army will stay at the northwest border for a while. After the overall situation stabilizes, it is determined that all the rebels have been disbanded.
Then I will break camp and return to the capital!" Qinglong gave a general report on the battle situation on the northwest border.
"Well, you are worthy of being the general of Loulan Kingdom. There is no need to worry about the northwest border. Now only Hongshan City is left!" Hearing such news, Helianzhi couldn't help but cheer. The trouble in the northwest has been solved.
This made him feel less worried.
He Lianjue behind him had been silent just now, but after thinking about it, he immediately stepped forward and asked Qinglong: "Qinglong, is there any news about Heimuzana in the letter?" r
"No, but General Yuwen sent someone a message. Heimuzana disappeared without a trace after the rebels were defeated. She probably escaped back to Tianye by water." What follows is just Qinglong's guess. r
Helianzhi's hatred for Heimuzana has been deeply rooted. Since she escaped at the northwest border, she will definitely come to Hongshan City to find Xing Aotian. As soon as she appears, he will definitely kill her with his own hands.r
He has always carried the red dragon soul-suppressing nail that the Nine-tailed Lama gave him. The purpose is to remind himself at all times that he must avenge Cen Xue!
"You don't have to guess, she will definitely come to Hongshan City, maybe she has already arrived!" Helianzhi's cold and hoarse voice sounded, which was far different from his previous voice.
It is not unreasonable for Helianzhi to say this. It would take about 12 days at the fastest to deliver a message from the northwest border. In other words, when he rushed back to the capital from Wuji Mountain, there was already fighting with the rebels on the northwest border.
Okay, just a short time
He had already calmed down the war and ordered people to send the victory report back to the capital. At that time, Heimuzana had already escaped. It had been more than ten days. If Heimuzana escaped by water, counting the days, she must have been there in the past few days.
We should arrive at Hongshan City.
Helianjue and Qinglong both calculated the time. It was indeed as the king said. If Heimuzana really came to Hongshan City to join the enemy, there was no second Doctor Keser in their city. What would they do?
r
"Brother Wang, have you thought of a countermeasure?" Helianjue asked worriedly.
"Early tomorrow morning, send someone to Wuji Mountain to invite Elder Muyue!" For the current plan, only Elder Muyue is here to suppress the demon girl.
"But..." Helianjue suddenly hesitated when he heard what he said.
"No, Gu knows what you want to say. Don't worry, he won't do anything random." Helian was worried that without Elder Muyue staying in Wuji Mountain, Helian Qi would be teaching ### tricks.
"Well, since even Brother Wang can trust him, I naturally have nothing to say." Helian Jue thought about the overall situation and could only accept him.
Helianzhi looked at his face and knew what he was thinking. It seemed that this matter had to be handled by the people around him.
"Qinglong, you will take a small team to Wuji Mountain to pick up Elder Muyue tomorrow. Be careful along the way." He Lianzhi handed over this task to Qinglong.
"According to the decree——"
Qinglong has always been the most at ease when it comes to handling affairs. When he receives Elder Muyue, he must ensure that everything goes smoothly.
——————Dividing line————————
After meeting Helianzhi just now, Cen Xue felt hesitant for a while. After Mu Sheng's repeated persuasion, she agreed to go to the camp to rest for a while.
"Fenghuang, what's wrong with you?" Bai Lu was also here in the camp. Seeing her lonely look, she stepped forward and asked her concernedly.
Sighing, Cen Xue didn't know how to explain such an incredible thing to her. She could only say that it was a problem in her heart.
"I'm fine, I'm just a little tired. I want to take a bath and sleep comfortably." She is tired, so tired...
In fact, what she misses most now is his embrace. However, when they met for the first time today, the way he looked at her made her feel uncomfortable and made her feel abandoned. Although she couldn't blame him for this, it still made Cen Xue
I feel very uncomfortable.
"I think we're pretty busy outside. Let's go back to the mansion, okay?" Bai Lu already looked tired. It was almost dawn now, and she couldn't hold on any longer.
"Well, let's go talk to your senior brother." Cen Xue stood up and agreed with her suggestion.
After saying hello to Qing Song, the two returned to the mansion together. As soon as they touched the bed, Bai Lu fell into a deep sleep. Cen Xue sat by the bed and looked at her, and decided to take a hot bath before falling asleep.
Seeing that they came back tired after a night, the housekeeper had already prepared hot water for them. As soon as Cen Xue opened her mouth, he immediately ordered someone to bring the hot water. He knew that his daughter's family liked flower petal baths. There was no other flower petal bath in their small border town.
There are still a lot of them, and they have been prepared for them in advance.
Cen Xue soaked in the hot water and couldn't help but smile when she saw these fresh petals. Although the housekeeper was an old man, he still understood women's thoughts quite well.
Cen Xue sprinkled the petals on the water. Cen Xue didn't know what they were. They were all rouge-colored, crescent-white, and orange. They should be mixed with petals of various colors. The petals were soaked in hot water and soon they
The intoxicating fragrance of flowers slowly drifted out of the window.
The whole room seemed to be shrouded in the mist of the fragrance of flowers. The tired Bai Lu was lying on the bed. The fragrance floated to the tip of her nose, making her smile slightly in comfort, and she continued to be intoxicated in her dream.
She leaned her head on the edge of the bucket and opened her arms comfortably. She was really exhausted today. It was really great to be able to soak in such a flower petal bath comfortably.
When the afternoon sun shone into the room, Cen Xue opened her eyes slightly. The white dew lying next to her had disappeared. When she opened the window and looked outside, she saw that the sun was already behind her.
"Fenghuang, you're awake." Bai Lu walked in with food in her hands.
"Well, I just woke up and I didn't see you." Cen Xue walked to her side, looked at the food in her hand, and her stomach began to growl.
"Go and freshen up quickly. I'll bring you something to eat." When Bai Lu woke up after a good sleep, she seemed to be in much better spirits.
"Yeah." Cen Xue hummed and immediately went to wash her face and change clothes.
On the other side, Nangong Lie returned from a defeated battle last night and took the lives of thousands of soldiers. Before setting off, he vowed that he would capture Hongshan City, but he did not expect that he would still be defeated.
With such a result, he would naturally be ridiculed and blamed by Xing Aotian, which made Nangong Lie very angry.
"Report - General, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the Second Prince, and the Third Princess are here." Outside the camp of Dongou Kingdom, Chun Yujun and others had already arrived.
"What - why are they here, and Ruoxian?" Nangong Lie was confused, what was going on with these children.
Chun Yujun was under house arrest when he left. Chun Yuqian never paid attention to the affairs of the court. Ruoxian was only a fourteen-year-old girl, why did she end up on the battlefield? What a nonsense!
He put down the wine glass in his hand and hurriedly walked out of the tent to see what was going on.
