The prince disliked her, and the legitimate daughter was reborn and married to the regent

The soldiers who were reprimanded by Zuo Mingyuan retreated to the door in a daze. One of them was so considerate that he closed the door. By the time they reacted, they had all gathered under the city wall.

"What happened just now? Why do I feel like I heard some noise?"

"I just remember what General Zuo said. He is indeed right."

The leading scholar wanted to speak, but the old man holding the food came over tremblingly.

"You guys, are you all full? I have more here, if it's not enough..."

His wrinkled face showed a look of sadness, but he still said,

"If it's not enough, I'll look for more..."

He handed the box in his hand to the soldier, then left slowly with a humble lady beside him.

The staggering steps and the heavy back seemed to have turned into boiling water, boiling people's hearts.

The soldier holding the lunch box was silent for a moment before he spoke softly,

"I'm not leaving. If I leave, what will they do? I won't be able to run away after eating the food they sent me."

"The clothes I'm wearing were also repaired by that woman. I can't go back on my word."

"The young general saved me, I shouldn't repay kindness with hatred. I want to stay. Even if I die, at least I won't live in humiliation."

More and more soldiers spoke up, forming an irreversible stream that rushed forward. The scholar could no longer stop them. He glanced at these people and quietly retreated.

……

"So, you remembered?"

Fuqiu was playing with her braids out of boredom, her hair reflected in her emerald eyes.

"Ok?"

Yun Nian sat up from the bed and looked at his hands in distress.

"In fact, only a little bit. I remembered some of the things that happened in Dongling, but I felt that those were not the most important. There are still very big secrets hidden in my lost memories."

Hearing this, the enchanting girl also threw herself on the bed. Two beautiful figures were lying on the dark grey sheets.

"When will you come with me to Keluo? I can give you the Disguise Pill. No one will recognize you. When I find the next suitable musician, you can leave."

Fuqiu persuaded him earnestly, and fearing that the chips were not enough, she added,

"By the way, I can also take you to the secret room secretly and steal all the old man's things."

She had been in there once and saw so many strange things that it was dizzying. Although she didn't recognize them, they were definitely good things.

"Unfortunately, my palace could be searched at any time, and the old man is becoming more and more vigilant at his age."

She was the princess of Keluo. The old man she was talking about must be Keluo's emperor, Keluo. According to legend, he was bloodthirsty and cruel, licentious and immoral, and even ate human flesh for pleasure.

It was hard for Yun Nian to imagine how Fuqiu grew up in such a palace.

She knew that Fuqiu was not helping her for no reason. She had to get Yun Nian's help, at least Yun Nian's identity as a musician.

Fuqiu needs to prove in Ke Luo's palace that she is still able to use the art of enchantment and is not a paper tiger that has lost its musician.

"If those guys knew that my musician had died and I hadn't found a new one yet, they would definitely come over excitedly and eat me. Sisi, you won't let that happen, right?"

She showed a pitiful expression, and her soft eyes came coquettishly to Yun Nian, like a flower with thorns.

"Of course, after Thorny Sand City is safe and I regain my memory."

"Humph, isn't that still a long time away? If I don't go back now, someone else will ride on my head!"

Although she said so, Fuqiu did not urge her. Yun Nian could even see the thick smoke that lingered in her eyes, as if she herself was unwilling to go back to that cannibalistic palace.

There was a knock on the door, and Lan Ying and Lu Xi walked in after getting permission.

"Sister, we just checked. Jisha City was caught in a tough battle ten days ago. It was originally just a routine battle with Ke Luo's soldiers, but suddenly those mummies appeared, and the situation was reversed."

"Most of the people here have already fled, except for some frail elderly people, women and children who are afraid that they can't bear the hardship of traveling."

"It is said that only one-third of the original number of soldiers are left here."

The two of them told Yun Nian all the information they had found out, and then looked at Yun Nian with sparkling eyes.

She had already sat up and patted the twins' heads gently.

"You have done a great job. Now go and rest. Langya, you come with me."

The sunlight was too hot. Fuqiu frowned and said that she wanted to rest in the house, and then she ignored the two of them.

Langya carefully held up an umbrella that was enough to cover Yun Nian's entire body. She walked in the city that she had not had time to take a closer look at. Painful cries came from all directions.

Cracked soil, cracked lips, cracked wounds, only blood can nourish them.

"Jisha City is short of water, right?"

"Yes, Master. This place is close to Keluo. There is endless yellow sand everywhere and there is an extreme lack of water."

But there was even a well in Zuo Mingyuan's house. She walked a few steps forward and saw a huge, dry tree with a well under it.

"This is not..."

Her voice disappeared in the wind when she saw the situation inside. It was indeed a well, and the water waves were indeed shaking. But in the middle of the well, there were two bodies lying, one was a soldier from Jisha City, and the other was a dried corpse.

It seems that the water source has been polluted. No wonder no one uses the water here.

"So where do they get water to drink now?"

Langya remained silent, he didn't know either.

"Before, they would fetch water from my house and the general's house, or from farther, more remote wells."

She tilted her head to look, and saw Zuo Mingyuan approaching her without her noticing. Her eyes lingered on his collar for a moment, and then she suddenly realized why she hadn't heard any sound.

"You just rested here?"

As soon as the leather armor was put on, she fell to the ground, so she naturally didn't pay attention.

"Ah."

However, the conversation between the two could not continue. Yun Nian turned his head and looked in the direction of the city wall. Heavy footsteps and roars came from that side.

"coming!"

She spoke softly, her eyes sweeping over the cowering yet determined soldiers.

"Here I come, Sisi."

Zuo Mingyuan also repeated,

"Then just keep looking at me."
