Nan Sheng's expression froze, and she quickly denied it: "How is that possible?"

"This is the Southern Frontier Kingdom's palace. How can he come and go as he pleases?"

"What's more, a month ago, the Saint was only accompanied by one guard. Could it be that General Lu also came with her?"

Su Yujiao frowned. Lu Ziqian had disappeared for a long time and no one knew where he was. How could he suddenly appear in the palace of Southern Xinjiang Kingdom?

She must be hallucinating.

"How did my injury heal?"

"How could it not leave scars?"

"How did you heal such a serious injury?"

"Is there a miracle doctor?"

"Even a miracle doctor can't leave no scars."

Obviously, she is not that easy to fool. This is obviously unscientific and even seems a bit weird.

But she is also very accepting of weird things. After all, her traveling through a book is itself unscientific and weird.

"Does the Saint still remember the Corruption Devouring Gu?"

She remembered that she had once saved Lu Ziqian's legs.

"This kind of Gu can chew through rotten flesh and scars, and grow flesh."

"As for your injury, it wasn't cured by a miracle doctor, but by the use of the Southern Frontier Nation's national treasure, the Resurrection Gu."

"This Gu is harmless and non-toxic, and has the power to bring the dead back to life. There is only one in the world."

"You are the goddess of Southern Border, so your father will not be stingy."

"Really?" Su Yujiao was still skeptical.

"Of course it's true. If you don't believe it, you can ask your guards."

"Zhang Xin?"

"By the way, where is Zhang Xin? Has he gone back yet?"

Nan Sheng shook her head: "He's still in the palace waiting for you to wake up."

"I have sent others to Daming Country to deliver the message."

"Ah."

Su Yujiao nodded: "Call him over, I want to see him."

"it is good."

Soon Zhang Xin came in. Zhang Xin was very excited to see her wake up.

Such a tough and strong man actually had tears in his eyes at this moment.

Zhang Xin knelt before her and spoke excitedly, "I failed to protect her properly. Please punish me, County Lady."

"Get up, it's all over."

Zhang Xin knelt on the ground and refused to get up. He felt very guilty. If he had protected the county lord, this would not have happened.

"Let me ask you, what happened after I was injured and unconscious?"

"Is Chen Yunniang really dead?"

"How did I survive?"

"The more details you can give, the better."

As Zhang Xin listened to her questions, his eyes became redder, his body trembled slightly, and he clenched his hands tightly under his sleeves, trying hard to control his sadness.

But what he said was exactly the same as Nan Sheng's.

Su Yujiao could only believe that perhaps there really was a resurrection Gu in this world that could bring people back to life!

This is the world of books after all, and nothing is impossible.

Just consider her lucky!

"Let's go. We've been delayed for so long, it's time to go back."

Suddenly, she felt like going home.

She missed her children and home!

And there should be news about Lu Ziqian too, right?

I have been busy dealing with the crisis of national destruction for some time and have not been able to spare much time to pay attention to Lu Ziqian.

Now that everything has settled, if there is still no news from him.

She was afraid she couldn't sit and wait any longer!

Nan Sheng looked at the two people's backs as they left and sighed regretfully.

I hope she never knows the truth.

On the way back, Zhang Xin was not as excited as when he first arrived. He seemed very depressed, even with an inexplicable sadness.

Su Yujiao looked at him strangely. What was wrong with this guy?

When he came, even though it was so dangerous, he was still looking around excitedly.

Now that all crises are over, shouldn't he be excited?

Why does it seem like he's worried about something?

We've been flying for two hours, and he's still staring out the window?

"Zhang Xin, are you hiding something from me?"

Zhang Xin's back stiffened, and he immediately replied, "No, I dare not hide it from the county lady."

"But something happened at home?"

"Why do I feel like you're worried?"

Su Yujiao wondered, could it be that bad news about the Zhang family came from the capital?

He remembered that Zhang Xin had a younger brother who was also on the city wall resisting the attack of the Gu people. Could it be that something had happened to his brother?

"Did something happen to your brother?"

Zhang Xin was stunned and shook his head: "No."

"Then what's wrong with you?"

"Your humble servant... Your humble servant, I am somewhat afraid of punishment from His Majesty and the Crown Prince. I failed to protect the County Lady, causing you to suffer such serious injuries. You almost..."

Su Yujiao smiled indifferently and even spoke to comfort him: "It's not your fault. I will explain it clearly to the emperor."

"You were not with me at the time, so I asked you to go to Lai Fu Pawn Shop to find the male Gu. It wasn't because you failed to protect me."

"And no one could have imagined that Chen Yunniang would suddenly commit suicide."

"You can't be blamed for this. If anyone is to blame, it should be Chen Yunniang."

"Forget it, let's not talk about her anymore. It's unlucky."

"Anyway, don't worry, I will explain everything to His Majesty."

Zhang Xin's eyes turned red again when he heard what Su Yujiao said. He was afraid that Su Yujiao would notice something, so he kept staring out the window and hummed softly.

"Zhang Xin, I want to ask you something."

"Did Lu Ziqian come when I was unconscious?"

She still felt that she saw Lu Ziqian before she fell into a coma. It was too real to be an illusion.

Zhang Xin's back stiffened again, and his heart suddenly began to beat like thunder. "No, General Lu was out on business, so why did he appear in the Southern Xinjiang Palace?"

"Oh, I seemed to see him before I passed out. Maybe it was really an illusion."

"Are you familiar with him?"

"I remember that before he became a general, he served in the Black Dragon Guard for a period of time. You were already the commander of the Black Dragon Guard at that time, right?"

"So, he was your subordinate at that time, right?"

"There has been no news from him for some time. Did the Emperor send him on a secret mission?"

Zhang Xin's eyes turned red unconsciously when he heard Su Yujiao talking about Lu Ziqian. He remained silent for fear that she would hear something.

Seeing that there was no response, Su Yujiao turned around and looked, and found that the guy had actually fallen asleep.

Maybe I'm too tired!

A lot had happened during this period, and he was worried about his injury.

I guess you haven't had a good night's sleep during this period.

Seeing that he was asleep, Su Yujiao stopped talking.

Before dark, the two finally arrived in the capital.

The plane landed at the palace. Su Yujiao was eager to return home. She chatted briefly with the prince who had become emperor and then went home.

Su Yujiao walked a few steps, then suddenly turned around and asked, "Is there still no news about Lu Ziqian?"

"What on earth was he investigating?"

"Not even a letter?"

A trace of sadness covered the new emperor's face, but it disappeared in an instant. He pretended to be relaxed and said, "I have sent people to look for him."

"Don't worry, cousin, my cousin knows how to do things properly. He won't let anything happen to him."

"Even if something happens, someone will be sent back with a letter."

"Since there is no news, then everything is fine."

Su Yujiao frowned, feeling a little uneasy.

"Well, I'll go back first."

She really wants a child.

Miss him too!
