Chapter 459: Longing for Xiang Liu
Chapter 459: Longing for Xiang Liu
With one cut, bright red blood splattered onto Yingliu's shoulder.
Along with the patrolling guards came Xuan.
Zuo'er loosened his grip, and Xiaoyao was held in Xuan's arms, with unspeakable pity and boundless rage intertwined.
Yingliu's words add fuel to the fire
"If it weren't for me, Xiaoyao would have been tortured to death by the person behind the scenes. You are so useless."
As soon as he finished speaking, the bodies that had been stored in the small valley were thrown out, piling up one on top of the other to form a small hill. Looking up, there was no top in sight and blood was rising to the sky.
Jun Yi, who was guarding beside him, was used to seeing corpses, but he was also shocked and looked sideways frequently. He had seen Ying Liu protecting Xuan in Xiyan, and although he was powerful at that time, he was not as scary as he is now. Fortunately, this man was on the side of His Majesty, otherwise he would have been a big worry.
When Xiaoyao saw Xuan, she finally felt relieved and fainted.
Xuan looked at the towering mountain of corpses and felt extremely frightened. He couldn't imagine how the seriously injured Xiaoyao managed to escape from the pursuit of so many people. He was too scared, more scared than any previous assassination attempt.
Yingliu just watched as Xuanxuan's face became increasingly darker and his eyes became increasingly... perverted. It was too weird. She missed Xiangliu and wanted to go home to find a loving family.
"Since you are here, I will leave and go home."
Xuan was still holding Xiaoyao without any reaction. Yingliu gave Junyi a look and walked away.
Yingliu had no idea what happened next. The news brought by the spy was the same as what Xiaoyao wrote in the letter a month ago. Miss Xiling was fine, but Concubine Li Rong was imprisoned because of this.
After Yingliu left, Xiaoyao slept for a day and a night before waking up. Looking at the glittering pearl curtain, he finally felt the reality that he had escaped death. The relief of surviving the disaster was mixed with a hint of helplessness and melancholy.
When fighting with the mad wild goose, what made Xiaoyao persevere was not the instinct for survival, but her unwillingness to bear with Dixuan and her responsibility to the entire Dahuang. She could no longer ask Dixuan to shake the emperor's responsibility because of her. She promised her grandfather that she would stay alive and let Dixuan rest assured. Xiaoyao went against the hope in her heart and tried hard to survive.
She kept her promise, stayed away from danger, and also stayed away from Jing. Xiaoyao felt a lump in her nose and couldn't help shedding tears. She really missed Jing so much. If death could reunite her with Jing, she would be willing to die immediately just to touch and hug Jing again.
Xiaoyao had almost lost the desire to live after being almost sealed in a crystal coffin last time. If Yingliu hadn't been following her, pulling her, and dragging her, she might have let herself sink to the bottom of the sea and met Jing.
"Xiaoyao, are you awake?" Xuan threw down the official documents, lifted the bead curtain and rushed in.
Xiao Yao suppressed all the thoughts and tried hard to move her body so that she could look more energetic.
"Well, what about the left ear?"
"He is too exhausted, tell him to take a few days off. I'll let Xiaoxiao stay with you for the next few days."
Xiaoyao saw that Xuanxuan looked haggard and his eyes were red, and smiled bitterly.
“I’m sorry to have made you worry again.”
"I'm fine. I'll be fine after a good night's sleep. I've already imprisoned Concubine Li Rong."
The brother and sister talked for a long time, each with their own thoughts, and decided to continue the investigation and temporarily imprison the most suspected murderer - Concubine Li Rong.
Yingliu received a letter from Xiaoyao reporting that she was safe, and she continued to reason with the little snake without any emotion.
She knew that even if Xiaoyao heard with her own ears that the person who committed murders several times was Xinyue, she would not tell Xuanxuan.
I'm afraid that before this, Xiao Yao also suspected Chen Rong Xinyue. She had once again brushed shoulders with death, but she remained silent. She is really patient and really... sentimental.
