Adhere to the gentleman's principles

Li Ziyan rode back to the temple and saw the trap had been set. He knew someone must be coming. He ran to the temple and saw Zhao Junning sitting by the fire with his chin resting on his head, waiting for him. Zhao Junning saw a shadow at the door and turned around. He immediately stood up and said, "You're back."

Li Ziyan walked up to Zhao Junning and carefully checked him out and asked, "Someone came over just now. Are you injured?"

Zhao Junning shook his head and said, "No, that person just came to tell me to go with him, saying it was the prince's intention. I refused and asked him to tell the prince that it was not necessary, and then he left."

Li Ziyan then asked: "Did he attack you?"

Zhao Junning shook his head and said, "No, nothing is hurt." Li Ziyan nodded and said, "That's good. I bought some cakes and steamed buns. Let's go."

The two rode their horses and slowly entered the border of Liangzhou. In the vast desert, Li Ziyan held Zhao Junning's hand and walked forward together. Zhao Junning couldn't help but ask, "Are we almost at our destination?" Li Ziyan smiled and nodded, and replied softly, "Yes, we are almost there."

Overhead, an eagle soared and circled in the sky for a long time. The hot sun shone on them, reflecting the figures of the two people leaning on each other.

Suddenly, a group of people jumped out of the desert and surrounded them tightly. Li Ziyan quickly protected Zhao Junning behind him and said calmly: "It turns out that the peace along the way was all to wait for us here."

"Young Marquis, we don't want to kill you, we are just following orders. Don't blame us on the way to the underworld." One of them said. However, they seemed to deliberately avoid Zhao Junning, and all their attacks were focused on Li Ziyan.

The battle was extremely fierce. As time went by, the ground was filled with people who had been knocked down. Li Ziyan dragged Zhao Junning and ran as hard as he could. The pursuers behind him did not let go and arrows were shot from time to time. Li Ziyan always protected Zhao Junning in front of him and used his body to block all dangers for her.

As they ran in the desert, Zhao Junning became increasingly anxious. She knew that Li Ziyan was in great danger, but she could do nothing about it. She could only hold his hand tightly and pray for him silently. Li Ziyan tried his best to protect her, showing great perseverance and courage.

At the critical moment, a group of majestic soldiers suddenly appeared in front of them. They quickly repelled the group of menacing people like a god. Zhao Junning looked closely and saw that it was Jiang Yunchuan and his army who were leading the group. She shouted excitedly, "Brother Jiang!" When Li Ziyan heard the three words "Brother Jiang", a big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's great."

Jiang Yunchuan hurried forward and said, "I went to Liangzhou to discuss some things with Brother Yang today. It was Brother Yang's eagle that discovered your danger. The eagle flew back to tell me immediately, and I rushed here at full speed." Zhao Junning turned to look at Li Ziyan, her eyes full of joy, and said, "That's great." But at this time, she found that Li Ziyan was lying on her back and had sweated a lot. She carefully helped Li Ziyan up and touched the arrow on his back, and then she realized that Li Ziyan had just been shot. Jiang Yunchuan hurriedly dismounted and helped Li Ziyan get on the carriage.

Zhao Junning got on the car right after him, supported Li Ziyan, and gently pulled out the arrow from his back. Although the injured Li Ziyan was pale, he still tried to cheer himself up and comforted him, "Don't be afraid, I'm fine." Zhao Junning looked at him distressedly, tears welling up in her eyes. She nodded firmly and said, "I'm not afraid." Her voice was light and firm.

In the carriage, Zhao Junning simply applied some medicine to Li Ziyan and bandaged him up. The two drank some water. Jiang Yunchuan said, "You should take a nap. It's still a long way to Lucheng." The sense of security in the carriage also made Zhao Junning no longer worried.

When they got off the carriage in Lucheng, Fuling ran over like a bird flying into the forest and hugged Zhao Junning tightly, tears welling up in her eyes. She said in a choked voice, "Miss, you are finally here. I have been worried all day for the past month. I was so worried."

Zhao Junning patted Fuling on the back and comforted her softly, "Okay, okay, I'm here now, aren't I? Don't worry anymore." Her eyes were full of concern and comfort.

Then, Zhao Junning couldn't wait to ask, "By the way, have you bought the house?" Fuling nodded repeatedly, and said with relief, "Yes, it was chosen by Lord Yang himself. It's very close to the county government office, just across the street."

"That's good." A satisfied smile appeared on Zhao Junning's face, as if she was full of expectations for her future life.

When we arrived at the new house, we saw a plaque hanging high up, with two big characters written on it: Li Mansion. The characters were powerful and majestic.

After entering the mansion, Yang Chuanli said with a smile: "Although this mansion is not as spacious and luxurious as the marquis's mansion, it is also quite elegant and comfortable. I hope you don't dislike it." There was some earnestness and sincerity in his tone, and his eyes revealed concern for Zhao Junning.

Zhao Junning smiled, bowed to Yang Chuanli, and said sincerely: "Brother Yang, how could I dislike it. This house is really great. Look at the layout, it is really ingenious and beautiful." Li Ziyan looked around the house, nodded frequently, and praised: "It is really good. Just looking at the layout, you can tell that the owner of this house must be a person with elegant taste."

Fuling interrupted and said, "This is all thanks to Madam Yang. She helped to arrange it." Zhao Junning heard this and turned her gaze to Yang Chuanli with admiration in her eyes. She said, "So all this was done by sister-in-law. Junning would like to thank sister-in-law. Sister-in-law is so talented. It is really admirable."

Yang Chuanli's face was filled with a happy smile, and he said, "Jun Ning, you are too polite. Your sister-in-law was very happy to know that you two were coming. She learned about you from me and is full of expectations for you. She has been talking about wanting to see you."

"Then I have to find some time to visit my sister-in-law and ask her for advice on how to arrange the place." Zhao Junning said sincerely.

Yang Chuanli laughed and answered readily, "No problem, you're welcome anytime." His eyes were full of admiration for Zhao Junning and pride in his wife.

At night, Zhao Junning helped Li Ziyan carefully treat the injury on his back again in the house.
