The Emperor Zhou, who had vomited blood, looked pale and in great pain.

"Your Majesty," Li Bo said anxiously. At the same time, he asked the servants to go to the last carriage to call the imperial physician.

At this time, Bai Yanli and Tang Wanru also heard the sound approaching.

Tang Wanru saw that although there was blood on the handkerchief, it was not much. She looked at the dry corners of Emperor Zhou's mouth and comforted him, "Eunuch Li, don't worry. You must have coughed too violently just now and blood was pulled out of your throat." Ultimately, it was a problem of not adapting to the climate.

Eunuch Li felt a little relieved when he heard Tang Wanru's confident words.

Emperor Zhou, who had taken a breath, waved his hands and said in a hoarse voice, "Wanru is right. My throat is just torn and it hurts. It's nothing serious."

That's good.

Li Bo nodded. But Emperor Zhou was so ill that he absolutely couldn't continue on his journey. The most urgent thing was to rest quickly.

But they had been out of Longzhen for several days.

The town ahead is also far away.

Where is this going?

At this time, Bai Yanli said: "Father, I remember that not far ahead is the Chengmo land under the jurisdiction of Longzhen. We may be able to contact the officers and soldiers over there and rest there for two days."

Yes.

Li Bo thought that Chengmo was the place where criminals from the Zhou Dynasty were exiled in the northwest.

Although the environment is a little worse, it at least gives people a break.

Emperor Zhou also nodded.

Before he came here, he really didn't expect that the journey would be so difficult.

Just as the group of people were making up their minds, they saw two soldiers riding horses galloping out of the desert. When they got close, they knelt on the ground and said, "City and Desert Commander Li Li and Zhang Bing pay their respects to His Majesty."

It turned out to be someone from Cheng Mo.

It turned out that the chief of Nalong Town had already sent people to inform them that Chengmo would welcome the emperor, but because of the strong winds and sand in the past two days, they did not think that the team would arrive so quickly, which led to the delay.

Fortunately, we have arrived now.

Seeing them coming, Li Bo breathed a sigh of relief.

After arriving at Chengmo, the two commanders immediately arranged a place for Emperor Zhou to rest. Although the environment here was harsh, they still made sufficient preparations to welcome Emperor Zhou's arrival. Emperor Zhou was too tired to be picky about the surrounding environment. After drinking the medicine prescribed by the imperial physician, he fell asleep quickly.

Li Li and Zhang Bing knew that they were late, so they did not dare to delay and took Bai Yanli to inspect the progress of the Great Wall to show their contribution.

The Great Wall had been there in the previous dynasty, but it was very dilapidated today. So they took these prisoners with them to repair and strengthen the Great Wall.

The environment here is indeed not good.

But under the strict management of the two commanders, the construction speed of the Great Wall was still considerable.

Tang Wanru also followed behind Bai Yanli. The wind and sand blew the veil on her face. Her eyes gradually looked around at everything in front of her.

The Great Wall, the tents, the labor, every scene is so familiar.

She even remembered which tent she lived in in her previous life and which road she took to fetch water every day.

I also remember how miserable I was here in my previous life.

His expression darkened even more.

Her eyes swept over the people who were shackled and beaten by soldiers and hurried away. Tang Wanru was glad that she had left this horrible place in this life.

"Are you okay?" Seeing Tang Wanru's abnormality, Bai Yanli turned around and asked.

Tang Wanru shook her head.

As the group was walking, a thin woman carrying a basin of water suddenly walked past the tent in front. Tang Wanru narrowed her eyes and thought she looked familiar.

At the same time, the woman happened to raise her head.

She is Tang Yueer!

Because there were dusty people everywhere in this desert, people like Bai Yanli and Tang Wanru, who were dressed more elegantly, naturally attracted Tang Yue'er's attention immediately.

So both of them looked at each other.

When their eyes met, Tang Yueer felt her body shake violently, and then she almost subconsciously raised her hands and quickly covered her face with her arms. She was so anxious to hide that she didn't even care about the basin falling to the ground with a "bang". She directly covered her face with her sleeves and almost ran away.

Before Tang Wanru could see her face clearly, she had already left.

She didn't take it to heart and was taken to another place by the two commanders.

On the contrary, Tang Yue'er hid behind the tent, not daring to see anyone. She covered her face and cried in agony.

She never expected that—

Three years later, she met Tang Wanru with such a lowly status and such a scary face.

Think about it, many years ago, she was still the high-spirited Miss Tang.

She is bright and flamboyant, proud and noble, and she feels that she deserves the best things.

She also wants to have what Tang Wanru has.

If she didn't have it, she would steal it from Tang Wanru.

at all costs.

But this kind of her can never be found again. Now Tang Yue'er is a sensitive and inferior woman, tortured beyond recognition.

There was a servant who saw Tang Wanru from afar and hid because he was afraid to look at her!

How could she become like this?!

Tang Yue'er felt sad for her current self. She covered her face with her hands and cried.

Suddenly she looked up and saw her own face reflected in the water tank.

On her dark and yellow face, there was a winding and rugged scar. The scar was as conspicuous and terrifying as a centipede.

And it was not only engraved on her face, but also engraved in her heart and her bones.

When she gently stroked the scar with her hand, she suddenly understood.

How can you blame her?

It was Tang Wanru who harmed her.

Why should she be afraid of her? She should stand in front of her and return the scar to her.

No, not just back.

Looking at herself in the reflection, Tang Yueer silently gritted her teeth and decided to make herself even uglier and more unbearable to see. This would justify the suffering she had endured for the past three years.

Thinking of this, Tang Yue'er gently took out a packet of medicine powder from her waist.

This was the last packet of medicine powder that Wang Po gave her when she went to the prison to rescue her.

This was also given to her by Liu Xianghe.

Tang Wanru thought that when she went to the capital last time, she saw Liu Xianghe taking some herbs from the pharmacy to make poison for Lin Yunrou, but that was not the case at all.

He made the powder in her hand.

It can make people age extremely quickly and there is no reversal.

Tang Yue'er's lips curled up into a cold smile. Before that, Tang Wanru had not come to the northwest, and she was distressed that she could not find an opportunity.

But now she is here.

Then don't blame her for being cruel.

She doesn't just want her to die!

And she should return everything that was taken from her.

Her status is no less than that of men!
