Chapter 1345: Abducted Halfway

master of turning the tables around. It was their Li family who wanted to take over the orphan's property! They actually had the face to say such things.Upon hearing the reports from Li Guan and Mrs....After Ling and Mrs. Gu had discussed everything, the two of them returned to their separate private rooms and then left the teahouse one after the other.

Feng Lao, who had been listening quietly all along, seemed a little dazed. He regretted following the boss out today. Was this something he was supposed to hear

Fēng Lǎo Dà touched his own neck, then whispered to Lián Yī:

"Old Madam, what you're doing is going to result in the extermination of your entire clan, your brothers will be buried with you!"

"Well Scared"

Of course, I'm afraid. This is a matter of life and death.

"When you were first a rebel, weren't you afraid"

"Isn't that crowded If we can't beat them, we can run."

"As things stand now, as long as we are careful enough, we can just finish the job and run away."

Fei Lao Da really didn't want to communicate with his own boss anymore, he wanted to be quiet for a while.

R ripples yet reached out to pinch the other's mouth, then tossed a pill into their mouth and said in a low voice:

"Feng Kong, you better think this through before making a decision, or I can guarantee that before you betray me, your brother will collect your body first."

Feng Lao Da's intestines turned green with regret. He knew that Lian Yi Lao Da was intentional, just to get revenge for his rudeness back then. He was so heartbroken he wanted to cry but couldn't.

"My lady, I do everything you say."

"This is the choice of a smart person."

After this little detour, ripples led the people into the mountains, taking a shortcut to arrive at the Liangzhou border ahead of schedule.

Over here, because of the war, we have lost two cities in a row. So there are refugees everywhere. No one wants to die if they can live.

After learning that the Emperor would personally lead the troops, the morale of the border generals finally recovered somewhat. However, they still felt uneasy in their hearts because they had lost the city.

Xin Yuan, carrying grain and silver, finally arrived in Liangzhou and was welcomed by the people of Liangzhou along the way.

Although Xin Yuan was somewhat a scoundrel in matters of love, as an emperor and commander, he was competent. On the day he entered Bian Liang City, he didn't have time to wash or change his clothes before meeting the city guard commander to learn about the latest battle situation. Immediately, orders began to be issued from the governor's mansion, each one being carried out meticulously. This stabilized both the military and civilian morale while also setting the tone for how he would handle affairs.

For a long time afterward, Xin Yuan was busy fighting and reclaiming lost territory. He spent almost every day in tents on the front lines, demonstrating his determination to defend the country and earning the fierce loyalty of the generals.

Even the Emperor, fearless of life and death, vowed to reclaim the cities occupied by the Hu people. He was willing to lead his soldiers into battle to free his enslaved subjects. These generals who had been fighting for half their lives naturally couldn't let the Emperor be in danger, so they all charged ahead, their momentum like a rainbow. They fought several stunning counterattacks and suppressed the arrogance of the Hu people.

As two cities were successively retaken, the battle against the Hu tribe entered a stalemate. Because their leader, Hu Yanchi, had already figured out Xin Yuan's tactical patterns, this was now the real showdown.

As the emperor was busy with warfare, Gu Die'er, as a virtuous consort, naturally had to do her duty well and take care of everything for the emperor. Gu Die'er put a lot of thought into it, naturally making everything perfect, which made Xin Yuan more and more satisfied with her.

On the other side, ripples finally met Gu Die'er as a physician.

Gu Die'er recognized Ripples at once. Though it had been nearly ten years since they last met, she immediately spotted her best friend. The surprise in her eyes was unmistakable.

"Lingcao, please have this willow doctor take my pulse. I've been waking up in the middle of the night for the past two days and haven't been sleeping well. My headache is terrible because of it."

Yes, madam.

Rancao also recognized ripples, but she instinctively cooperated with her master.

When Gu Die'er and Lian Yi were alone, she didn't dare to say anything inappropriate. She only used her eyes to signal Lian Yi.

Ripple sat beside her casually and said with a smile:

"Butterfly, how are you doing"

"You..."

Ripple knew the other's concerns and immediately reassured:

"Don't worry, someone is watching over it, nothing will happen."

Only then did Gu Die'er relax her expression, saying with a hint of self-deprecating humor:

After entering the palace, I became increasingly cautious and careful, walking on eggshells every day for fear of making mistakes. I lost my previous carefree spirit.

"Given the circumstances, all your careful consideration is well-deserved."

"I received the message from my mother. How did you get involved Will you be in danger Will your family be affected You shouldn't be so reckless."

Gu Die'er's string of questions expressed her worries, happiness, and guilt. Her emotions were so intense it was hard to respond.

Gu Die'er seemed to have noticed that her emotions were a bit unstable. Perhaps because there was someone she trusted beside her, she didn't hold back and after a pause, she began to speak, asking one question after another.

First, Lian Yi briefly talked about her experience as a traveling doctor. Then, she explained the plan of Gu's family to Gu Die'er in detail, followed by a tailor-made escape plan for her.

Gu Die'er's eyes finally lit up after hearing the plan. She looked at Lian Yi with sparkling eyes, trying hard to suppress the corners of her lips that were about to curl up. After confirming every detail, she let Lian Yi leave.

When Lan Cao saw Gu Die'er again, she immediately noticed her master's mood had improved visibly. She smiled and asked:

"Madam, but because you are happy to see Miss Liu"

"Well, Lian Yi's medical skills are as good as ever. She gave me a massage and I feel much lighter now."

"Very well, I shall have someone set another time and give the mistress a few more massages. Hopefully, it will cure the root of the ailment."

"Alright, you go arrange it."

After that, ripples went to see Gu Die'er twice more. Gu Die'er's ailment of waking up in the middle of the night with headaches was completely cured. At this time, the emperor also sent an order for Gu Die'er to go to Fengmi City, which had been regained, to accompany him on his journey.

Gu Die'er received the order and immediately instructed her servants to pack her belongings, preparing to depart at once. She didn't delay for a moment.

It was Qi Shaohang who sent the command. After giving the order, he waited outside with his squad, ready to escort Gu Bin to Fengmi City.

Half an hour later, Gu Die'er's team set off. Lian Yi watched Gu Die'er's carriage leave from the second floor of a tavern, as well as Qi Shao Hang who stood beside her carriage. Her willow eyebrows rose slightly, and a faint smile played on her lips.

The ripple of her smile sent a shiver down Elder Feng's spine. The last time she had smiled like that, it was before she beat him up. He couldn't help but wonder who the unlucky one would be this time.

As Gu Die'er's caravan left Bianliang City, they sped up towards Fengmi City. Unfortunately, they were ambushed halfway by a cavalry unit of Hu people. The convoy was broken into several segments, and everyone was caught completely off guard.

Gu Die'er was protected by Qi Shaohang's men behind her, which unexpectedly drew the attention of the other party. They believed Gu Die'er was important and took advantage of the gap when Qi Shaohang blocked the knife to abduct her.

Gu Die'er's face paled, but she forced herself not to cry out. Then, she was laid across a horse's back and ridden out of the battle circle.

Qi Shaohang also discovered that Gu Die'er had been abducted at this time. He wielded his sword, killing the Hu people blocking his path, and immediately mounted his horse to pursue them.wo. I can find them myself."Ripple said confidently."Well, since I've taken you on as my apprentice, I should hold a ceremony to let the old folks in the mountains know. It's also a good opportunity t...
