Chapter 485: Longing for Xiang Liu
Chapter 485: Longing for Xiang Liu
Yingliu suddenly felt weak all over and fell into the recliner. Her mind was blank. The mental preparation she had made early on was useless. This moment was really coming, but she did not feel the joy of achieving her goal. Her heart was empty and she urgently wanted to go there, to find Xiangliu, to see how he was, whether he had eaten well, and whether he was injured.
Just like an important exam, when there is still a long time left and you prepare for it for several years, you will be eager to finish the exam quickly. But when the exam is really coming and there is no time left, you start to get anxious again, fearing that you are not well prepared enough.
Ying Liu's mind was a mess as she mechanically opened the bamboo tubes one by one. Most of the information was about the recent private affairs of the noble families, and a small part was about the Xiyan Army's step-by-step approach to Chen Rong's Army and the conditions of the two armies.
After reading them one by one, Yingliu finally calmed down.
Xiangliu didn't let her get involved in Chen Rongjun's affairs. She promised that she would only take action when the time was right.
The formation in Qingshui Town remained open, and Yingliu just counted the days and waited, and only half a month had passed.
That day, Yingliu suddenly remembered something.
Before leaving Yushan, my lord said that the Queen Mother did not have much time left, and it would be best if Xiaoyao could see her for the last time.
Yingliu had planned to hide Xiaoyao as a bargaining chip just in case, but she kept thinking about it during the past half month.
If the Queen Mother died like this, Xiaoyao would definitely feel regretful when she woke up, and she would also feel uneasy about it.
Yingliu thought about it and decided to let Xiaoyao go to Yushan since she had nothing to do anyway.
However, before that, she had to make an agreement with Xiaoyao. If she agreed, they would go to Yushan. If she didn't agree, everything would remain the same.
Before going out, Yingliu went to check on the little snake and the ball of fur again. The two little guys had almost absorbed all the alcohol in their bodies and would wake up in another month.
Arriving at the back mountain, Yingliu resolved the spell and woke Xiaoyao up.
"A Liu... I'm not dead?" Xiao Yao's eyes were filled with surprise and helplessness. It took her a long time to recover. She smiled bitterly and said
"Why is it so hard to die? You shouldn't have saved me."
Yingliu didn't say much and removed the vines from the other cave entrance.
"You should come and see them first, and then decide whether you want to live or not."
Xiaoyao walked over and looked in the direction Yingliu was looking. A bright firework exploded in her mind and beautiful, illusory expectations blossomed in her heart.
She staggered over and fell to the edge of the pool, trying to reach out and touch the person inside.
"Jing, is it really you? Am I dreaming? Are we still alive?"
Tushan Jing was still asleep, so he naturally wouldn't answer Xiaoyao, but his healthy face was real. Xiaoyao had tears in her eyes but a sweet smile on her lips. Her eyes greedily fell on Jing's face, and she couldn't see enough of it.
"Xiaoyao, when I finish what I want to do, I will return Tu Shanjing to you."
Xiao Yao still looked at the sleeping Tu Shanjing reluctantly. After coming back to life and meeting him again, she made a decision in her heart.
"Okay, A-Liu, I promise you, as long as you don't hurt Xuan, I will help you with whatever you want."
This is the best, Yingliu breathed a sigh of relief. It would be best if Xiaoyao could understand. They have known each other for many years, and she doesn't want to say bad things to her unless it is absolutely necessary.
"Then it's settled. Tu Shanjing will stay here temporarily until everything is over. I will send you to Yushan to see the Queen Mother later, and then come back immediately."
"I listen to you"
The two men changed their appearances and rode on Pegasus to Yushan.
Fortunately, they arrived in time. Xiao Yao only saw her briefly before being driven away by the Queen Mother. As soon as he stepped out of Jade Mountain, he heard a long sigh.
The Queen Mother who had raised Xiaoyao for more than seventy years has passed away, and the new Queen Mother Baizhi has taken over Yushan.
