She rubbed her somewhat swollen and sore forehead and said, "Then we have to return to Beijing quickly and let An Jingyue go visit my uncle!"

Xiao Sheng felt sorry for her, but he also understood that the Fang family's army could not fall into the hands of others. Even if the eldest princess could lead the army, the censors would not agree.

To put it bluntly, Emperor An was still young and had a soft hand, so he could not control the old men in the court.

He nodded: "If you feel better, let's hit the road!"

Lin Ruoyou quickly lifted the quilt and said, "You can leave now!"

Before she could stand still, she felt her knees weaken and she threw herself into Xiao Sheng's arms.

He lowered his eyes and chuckled: "You are still trying to show off, but you can't even stand still. How can you say you can walk?"

She immediately blushed, bit her lip hard and murmured: "You can't laugh at me! Otherwise, I'll bite you!"

As he breathed, he smelled a strong smell of blood.

She suddenly looked at his chest, her pupils trembling.

He just said that he had called for a doctor. She thought that his wound had been treated, but she didn't expect that it was still bleeding?

She asked anxiously: "Didn't your wound open again? Is the doctor a quack? He doesn't even know how to bandage it?"

Xiao Sheng coughed awkwardly: "No, I didn't let the doctor handle it. You really wronged him!"

"Why?" Lin Ruoyou quickly opened his shirt and saw the wound dripping with blood.

He frowned: "I don't like to be touched by others, and your fever has not gone away, so I have no idea!"

A flash of distress suddenly flashed across her pretty face, and she quickly treated his wound.

Fortunately, the crack was not too serious, and the bleeding stopped after pouring the golden sore medicine.

She frowned and said, "You can't be willful. If you continue like this, your wound will never heal properly. Is it possible that when you get married, you still want me to worry about your injury?"

His eyes lit up, and he subconsciously whispered in her ear: "Even if I'm injured, my physical strength is still fine. I promise I won't let Lin Xiaoyou down!"

Her pretty face suddenly turned red after being teased. She quickly got into the brocade quilt, covered herself tightly and said, "Go away, I don't want to see you!"

The smile on Xiao Sheng's lips gradually deepened. He stretched out his hand to pull down the quilt above her head and said, "Don't be bored. Isn't it okay if I don't talk nonsense anymore?"

She stared at him with furrowed eyebrows, her twinkling eyes captivating.

Xiao Sheng couldn't stand it anymore and quickly stood up and said: "I'm going to see how Orion's injury is recovering. He must be settled. He can't be allowed to follow him to the capital, otherwise your uncle will faint from anger again. No!"

When mentioning this matter, Lin Ruoyou also had a headache. Orion had saved Jing Jing Yue's life and brought them out of the swamp. They had to be properly placed both emotionally and rationally.

But will he agree to stay?

Just when her thoughts were complicated, Xiao Sheng had already arrived outside the yard.

Orion was seen sitting outside the door of An Jingyue's room, his expression cold and determined, like a stone statue without any emotion.

He frowned and said, "What's your name?"

He replied calmly: "Living alone in this world, my name is Lu Chen!"

Xiao Sheng nodded: "Lu Chen is a good name. Judging from your abilities, just being a hunter is a bit of an understatement. I wonder if you have any thoughts of joining the army? If you earn an official position in the army, you will definitely have a comfortable life in the future!"

Orion didn't answer but asked: "Are you going to send me away?"

Xiao Sheng raised his eyes and looked at An Jingyue's door: "We are all very grateful that you saved her life. However, she has a special status and you cannot stay with her. Moreover, she has been engaged and will soon become the leader of the current dynasty. The young lady of the Minister of War!"

Lu Chen was stunned for a moment, and then he asked in surprise: "Do you think I have unwanted thoughts about her?"

Xiao Sheng frowned and did not answer.

Lu Chen sneered: "I, Lu Chen, am self-aware. She and I are so different from each other, how can I have thoughts that I shouldn't have? The reason why I follow her is to find out my life experience!"

"Life experience?" Xiao Sheng blinked in surprise.

Lu Chen said: "When I rescued her at the bottom of the cliff before, I found a plum blossom brand on her ankle, which was exactly the same as mine. Someone had obviously branded it on with something, so I was surprised!"

Xiao Sheng was no stranger to the An family. The reason An Jing Yue's father was able to become the Minister of Household Affairs was because of the influence of his ancestors.

The late emperor conquered the country with martial arts, and the ancestors of the An family were indispensable.

Only because he died in battle, his son was promoted to the position of Minister of Household Affairs.

But he didn't expect that he would collude with the King of Huainan and destroy the An family's reputation.

As for Mrs. An, who died young, it is only said that Minister An married his wife in the countryside, and she was not on the stage and never appeared in front of others.

Could it be that he is a descendant of the An family?

Thinking of this, Xiao Sheng did not insist on letting him leave, and decided to ask clearly after An Jingyue woke up.

He nodded: "Okay, I will give you an explanation!"

Seeing him turn and leave, Chase Lu's eyes were complicated.

I had already guessed that he had an unusual identity and was dignified and decisive, but I didn't expect that he was actually the regent of the current dynasty.

He came from the capital to rescue An Jingyue regardless of danger, so her identity must be extraordinary, right?

What about yourself?

Who is it?

Although he has become numb after so many years, he still has expectations for his life experience.

After all, who wants to live alone in this world?

There was a struggle in his eyes, and he stood back at the door again.

When Xiao Sheng returned to the house, he saw Lin Ruoyou looking at him pitifully with her big watery eyes.

He asked worriedly: "What's wrong? Are you thirsty?"

She shook her head, a hint of shame flashing across her pretty face.

She said in an extremely low voice: "Where is Tie Yun? Can you call her over?"

Xiao Sheng suddenly felt guilty. Could he say that in order to legitimately take care of the little girl, he deliberately sent Tie Yun away to defend the outside?

He spoke quickly: "I asked Tie Yun to do important things, and I won't be able to come back for a while!"

Lin Ruoyou curled her lips in disappointment: "That's it, can you help me find a nanny at the inn?"

Xiao Sheng guessed it instantly, and he said without hesitation: "I can carry you to the toilet!"

Lin Ruoyou's pretty face turned red instantly, and she was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to bury herself.

She finally understood that she had no privacy at all in front of Xiao Sheng.

He actually indulged himself to such an extent that he could do anything for her. She was so shy!

Seeing her silence, Xiao Sheng thought he had guessed correctly.

He subconsciously leaned over to hug her, but she refused anxiously: "No, no, don't touch me. Go and call your mama for me!"
