The prince's personal bodyguard

"A'Luo, A'Luo, are you there? If you are, get off the car quickly and go back with us. If you follow them, they will hurt you sooner or later!" Qingdai shouted anxiously outside the carriage.

Ah Luo slowly got out of the car and said to Mei Jiu and Qing Dai: "Two sisters, you can go back now!"

"Why?" Qing Dai was puzzled. "Did they threaten you?"

"No, I just want to know my life experience as soon as possible." Ah Luo didn't say anything. She wanted to know her life experience for one thing, and she also wanted to know the secret hidden in the pendant on her body to see if she could find Bai Xiyin's whereabouts through this treasure, but this matter was very dangerous. She also knew that the other party came for the treasure on her body, and she didn't want to implicate everyone.

"A Luo, if you come with us now, he won't dare to do anything to you." Mei Jiu urged, "Why are you so stubborn? Now is not the best time to go to Wei. Wait until the young lady comes back and then we can discuss it."

"I have made up my mind. General Wei didn't force me. I wanted to go there of my own accord. Besides, maybe my relatives are there. Even if they aren't, General Wei will protect me, right, General Wei?" A'Luo looked at Wei Wuji with clear eyes.

Wei Wuji looked at Ah Luo's determined expression, and his heart was moved. Does this woman trust him so much? He found her on the emperor's orders, and he had selfish motives. He couldn't help but feel a little ashamed when he thought of this. For some reason, he still whispered, "Ah Luo, don't worry, I will definitely protect you!"

Ah Luo looked up at Wei Wuji, with a touch of emotion in her eyes. Her eyes revealed an unspeakable trust and dependence, which made Wei Wuji feel that his responsibility was even greater.

"How can you trust him? He has no good intentions." Qingdai was angry. "The young lady hasn't been found yet, A'Luo, stop making trouble and come back with us!" After saying that, she stepped forward and tried to pull A'Luo away.

"What are you doing, young lady?" Wei Wuji asked, "A Luo wants to go find her relatives. She is already an adult, not your slave or child. She has the right to make her own choice."

"A'Luo, I'll ask you one last time, will you come with us?" Qingdai was anxious.

A'Luo said nothing, just lowered her head silently.

"In that case, we won't force you. Just like General Wei said, you have the right to choose." After a pause, Mei Jiu said, "Qingdai, shall we go back first? When we have news about the young lady, we will go find A'Luo." Mei Jiu was a little disappointed and her tone was depressed.

"But I tell you, Wei Wuji, you were the one who took A'Luo away. If anything happens to her, we will hold you responsible!" He turned around and yelled at Wei Wuji fiercely.

"Don't worry, young lady. I will definitely protect you." Wei Wuji didn't know what would happen in the future, but he still made a promise.

Meijiu looked at A'Luo again, and with a determined heart, she and Qingdai turned around and whipped their horses back to the city.

Ah Luo looked at their receding backs, feeling so sad that she couldn't help but burst into tears.

From then on, she felt that she was alone again.

A'Luo turned around and got on the carriage.

Wei Wuji watched Ah Luo's lonely figure get on the carriage. For some reason, he felt a desire to protect her. He stared blankly for a moment, then suddenly laughed at himself. Ten years after his wife passed away, he had never thought about any other woman. Perhaps he had just made a promise and he had to keep it.

Looking up, the sky was dark and it seemed like it was going to rain. Thinking that there seemed to be no place to stay ahead, he had to reach a small town ahead before it rained, so he wanted to call for the horses to move as soon as possible. But he opened his mouth but didn't say anything, because A'Luo's bone injury had not healed. Although Bai Xiyin had the magic medicine, it takes time for the injury to heal. If he walked too fast, he was afraid that A'Luo would not be able to bear the pain. Although this stubborn girl didn't cry out in pain in the carriage, her pale face betrayed her pain.

"General, it's going to rain, should we go faster?" asked a soldier.

"Princess Duolan is injured, so we need to be careful when traveling." Wei Wuji had previously told everyone that A'luo was a princess, and he brought up the princess' identity now because he was afraid that everyone would complain.

The soldier fell silent.

A'Luo also heard these conversations in the car, but her bone injuries were really too severe. The horse trampled her hard. If it weren't for A'yin's magic medicine, she would probably still be lying in bed.

At this time, Wei Wuji told the soldiers to drive carefully and took out rain gear to prepare. The team continued to move forward slowly. I didn't expect this man to be so thoughtful. Ah Luo was grateful to him.

Sure enough, not long after, there was a flash of lightning in the sky, followed by a loud thunder, and in an instant, heavy rain poured down.

At this time, there was no village in front and no shop behind, and everyone was soaked in the rain.

Although A'Luo didn't say anything, she knew that Wei Wuji felt a little guilty because she had delayed the trip and caused everyone to get wet in the rain.

Although they had rain gear, the soldiers were still soaked by the rain after a while. Even Luo's carriage was seeped into rain, dripping on Luo's face, flowing down her neck to her body and into her shoes.

"Look, there's a temple ahead. Let's go there and take shelter from the rain." A soldier in front shouted loudly, his voice full of excitement.

We walked a few steps closer and found that it was indeed a temple, but it was a dilapidated one. There was no one inside, but it was a place where we could take shelter from the wind and rain.

Everyone quickly entered the temple. The wet clothes were uncomfortable to wear, so since they were all men, some people took off their wet clothes and wrung them out, leaving their bodies naked. Some people even found some firewood in the woodshed of the dilapidated temple and started a fire. Everyone was busy drying their clothes.

Although the weather is not cold yet, it is still very cool after the rain.

"A-choo!" A'luo's voice came from the carriage. Everyone was so busy warming themselves by the fire that they almost forgot there was a girl.

"Everyone, please pay attention. Don't wear clothes that are too revealing. Let Princess Duolan come out and get some fresh air." Wei Wuji ordered.

The soldiers laughed and quickly put on their trousers, leaving only their shirts to dry.

"I'm fine. It's uncomfortable for you to wear wet clothes. Go ahead and get warm. I'll just stay in the car. It's okay in the car... A-choo!" Luo said.

Wei Wuji didn't know what was going on in the sedan, he just thought that no one was wet, so he didn't force it.

After half an hour, the rain gradually subsided and everyone's clothes were half dry. Wei Wuji told everyone to set off.

Finally we arrived at a small town when it was dark.

After finding the inn, everyone dismounted, tied up the horses, and went into the guest rooms to take a shower.

Wei Wuji didn't rush to take a shower and rest, but went to greet Luo to get off the carriage. After nearly a day of bumpy ride, Luo walked down the carriage with difficulty.

After getting off the horse, Ah Luo just appeared in front of Wei Wuji, and suddenly she felt a black screen in front of her eyes, and she almost fell down. She hurriedly held the carriage. Wei Wuji saw all this, and he wanted to go up to help her, but the scene in front of him made him dare not go over.

Ah Luo was soaked through, her clothes sticking to her body, revealing her graceful figure. Her hair was wet, with water dripping down the ends of her hair. Her clear eyes were filled with fatigue, like a delicate, shy, dewy flower.

Wei Wuji didn't know what to do. He wanted to go over and help her, but he was afraid of damaging A'Luo's reputation. However, looking at the people coming and going in the inn hall, some malicious eyes were already glancing at A'Luo.

He immediately took off his half-dry coat and put it on Luo. He also took off his sword, along with the scabbard, and handed it to Luo as a walking stick. He followed beside her, keeping an eye on Luo's situation.
