The Demon Lord Forced to Marry the Female Leader
Chapter 237: Winning over Small Countries for Alliance
Yaoqin was eager to return and wanted to rush back to Jinzhou, so she said goodbye to them here and told them that she would go to Hezhou Medical Garden to find Chu Wan Ning after she was done with her work.
After parting with Yaoqin, He Er said to Chu Wanning:
"Wan Ning Fu Qian, are you really in such a hurry to return to the Medical Fairy Garden? If nothing else, let's walk together for a while. When you think Miss Yao Qin is about to arrive at the Medical Fairy Garden, you can go back! How do you think?"
He Er threw a coquettish look at Chu Wan Ning, and pretended to be a playful and cunning young man, bewitching him:
"Ziming and I are going to look for some people who have grudges against the Elephant Lord. As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend! I want to convince them to join the mission against the Elephant Lord! Are you coming? Come on! They are all living on the edge of a knife, and it would be a bit scary if we go alone!"
Ziming glanced at her and knew that she was not serious all day long. If there were no difficulties, she would create some.
Chu Wan Ning nodded and said:
"Okay, I'm willing to go with Miss He Er."
Fu Qian always listens to whatever Chu Wan Ning says. Since she has decided to go, then let him go.
The four people set off again, chatting along the way.
He Er was extremely happy. She kept complaining to everything along the way. She even talked a few words to every bird that passed by. Chun Chun was a chatterbox.
He Er's days in Hezhou were so glorious. She was like a big star that everyone was paying attention to. She was always surrounded by a large group of rich boys, who were either suave or talented, but all of them yearned for He Er.
In those days, Tsuruji's life was like an endless carnival. She never lacked topics and laughter.
However, fate always likes to play jokes. Since she embarked on this journey, only Ziming was left to accompany her, but Ziming was a calm person who didn't talk much. He Er often felt like a duck with a blocked mouth, with a lot of words in his heart but no place to vent.
Chu Wan Ning was the only one who talked a lot among Zi Ming and Fu Qian. She was like a breeze that blew away the haze in He Er's heart. He Er couldn't wait to argue with Chu Wan Ning. So, she refused to let Chu Wan Ning go back to Yi Xian Yuan and insisted that she accompany her for a while.
In fact, He Er was still thinking, what is Chu Wan Ning going back for? Fu Qian is also a dull person, what is fun in going back?
She even made a joke to Chu Wan Ning when she was in high spirits, saying that it would be better if Chu Wan Ning was a man, then she would not be with Zi Ming but with Chu Wan Ning.
When He Er said this, he didn't care how dark Ziming's face was. She was like a naughty child, always enjoying playing pranks, and she found it particularly funny when she saw Ziming's dark face.
Chu Wanning also saw through He Er's thoughts. She knew that if she and Fu Qian left, He Er would be bored to death alone.
So, she tried her best to stay with Tsuruji and chat with her.
As they chatted along the way, He Er led them to some lawless areas, where some tribes had demarcated their own prisons, refusing to accept the rule of any individual and thus becoming a small country.
However, such small countries are not recognized by outsiders. As long as the people above pay attention to them, or have the time to deal with them, they will be dealt with one by one.
So He Er came here to form an alliance with them, hoping that they could send troops to help when they were preparing to attack Xiangzhou.
However, the leader was afraid of the power of the Elephant Lord and did not dare to express his opinion easily. He just vaguely asked He Er and others to leave.
He Er's mood was like the sky covered by dark clouds, gloomy. She sat on the ground, playing with a small stone in her hand unconsciously, her eyes revealing deep confusion and helplessness.
Ziming sat next to her, looking at her lost look, and couldn't help feeling an inexplicable pain in his heart.
"What's wrong with them? Why aren't any of them doing anything?"
Tsuruji finally spoke, her voice choking with sobs. Tears were sparkling in her eyes, as if they would burst out at any moment.
Ziming gently held her hand, trying to comfort her, but He Er pulled it away unconsciously, leaving Ziming alone with a lonely warmth.
Chu Wanning counselled He Er and said:
"It's okay, Miss He Er. They are just watching. You are alone now, and there is no army directly under your command, so they naturally cannot convince you."
He Er felt even more depressed after hearing this. She lowered her head and drew circles on the ground with a small branch. She was silent for a moment, then raised her head unwillingly, looked at Chu Wan Ning and said:
"Then when can I leave the army? I really don't want to go on like this."
Chu Wan Ning looked at her anxious expression and couldn't help feeling helpless.
She knew Tsuruji's ambition and determination, but reality was always cruel. She sighed softly and said gently:
"Don't lose heart, Tsuruji. Building a strong army takes time and patience, and requires you to show enough leadership and determination. You have done very well now and have taken the first step, but you still need more efforts and accumulation. I believe that one day you will be able to form your own alliance army."
He Er heard Chu Wan Ning's words, and a gleam of determination flashed in her eyes. She nodded, as if she had made up her mind:
"Thank you for enlightening me, Wan Ning. I will continue to work hard!"
After the conversation, He Er became full of energy again, as if he had been injected with chicken blood!
Chu Wan Ning looked at her with a smile, thinking to herself:
Although Tsuruji is young and unfocused, she has her own ideas and has firm beliefs and determination. She will definitely become an outstanding leader in the future.
As night fell, the lights in the inn dimmed and the four of them found a room to stay in.
Chu Wan Ning and Fu Qian naturally asked for a room upstairs. As Taoist companions, there was nothing wrong with them living together.
He Er stared at Chu Wan Ning with his eyes wide open, said good night to her, and then went upstairs slowly, feeling a little nervous.
Hey? Wan Ning doesn't want to live in the same room with me? Then what should I do???
Fu Qian also went upstairs with his hands behind his back. Before going upstairs, when he passed by He Er, he gave her a meaningful look. There seemed to be some kind of teasing in his eyes, as if to say:
"How do you two plan?"
He Er glared at him. Humph, this Fu Qian usually doesn't like to talk, but now he knows how to joke! She was a little annoyed, but she could do nothing about it.
The shopkeeper handed He Er and Zi Ming the key to a room. He Er was about to refuse, but Zi Ming had already taken the key and said to her:
