Exile is exile, is half of the capital enough as compensation?

Of course, she didn't believe these things. If God really cared about injustice, the world would have been clear and bright long ago.

The royal family must have offended some powerful person.

She didn't know that the person she thought was great was standing beside her calmly, listening to them talk!

Of course, Mrs. Zhuang had no chance to know about this.

Zhao Xu on the other side was so shocked by his mother's words that he fell to the ground.

handle?

A dark secret?

After he left the palace, he had been loyal to the emperor and had done many things for him, but those things could not stand up to scrutiny.

It seems that what his mother said is true.

The emperor treated his mother like this, it is not just to kill his mother, but also to...

"Xu'er." Mrs. Zhuang called softly.

Zhao Xu raised his head slightly and looked at his mother. This time he saw her clearly. He saw the white hair on her temples and her sunken cheeks.

When he first saw her, he thought his mother became so haggard because he was not around and she couldn't sleep or eat. Now he knows that all this is because of him, but also not because of him.

In the end, his mother was dragged down by him.

After a long time, he let out a long sigh.

As if he had made some kind of decision, he slowly stood up and walked towards Leng Youran beside him.

"who are you?"

"My last name is Leng."

"cold?"

"Well, Commander Zhao will know later."

"Okay, so what do you want to do now?"

He is not a fool. She couldn't have brought his mother here without any demands.

"I want to cooperate with you."

"cooperate?"

"Well, do you want to talk?"

Zhao Xu thought for a moment, then nodded and made a gesture of invitation with his left hand.

Leng Youran followed Zhao Xu and walked into the darkness nearby.

"Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

"There are two paths. Commander Zhao, choose first."

"tell me the story."

Leng Youran didn't hesitate. "First, you escort the exiles well. I will rescue your mother and ensure her safety until your mission is completed. At that time, it's up to you whether you want to leave or return to the capital."

"Second, I'll send your mother back to the capital, and we'll pretend we haven't met tonight."

Zhao Xu couldn't help but laugh after hearing her request. "Miss Leng, does this condition mean I can only choose the first one?"

"You can also choose the second option. At most, it will take some time for me to deal with it. As for Commander Zhao's family, it has nothing to do with me. Instead, you should thank me for letting you see your mother one last time."

"Aren't you afraid that I'll send your information back to the capital? Then you'll naturally fall into the trap when you return. Then maybe His Majesty will spare my mother because of my merits."

"If you do that, I can't do anything about it. But I believe Commander Zhao is a smart man. As for wanting me to fall into their trap, to be honest, it only takes me one night to get to the capital. Do you think those idiots can keep me there?"

"One night?" Zhao Xu looked at her in surprise.

"Well, so think about it."

Zhao Xu sneered, "Do I have any choice?" He had already made up his mind when he said the last words. He was not stupid enough to really send his mother back to the capital.

"Then we will cooperate happily."

"It's so simple, you don't have any other requirements? You should know the way back..."

"I know, but no matter if it's you or them, they all have to go through this journey, so I won't make it difficult for you. I just hope that when the time comes, you won't hide your strength like you did that night."

"That night? Were you there too?"

"Ah."

Zhao Xu thought of the group of people he couldn't find. What happened that night still lingered in his mind. "So it was you guys that night?"

"Well, yes, so Commander Zhao should also know our capabilities."

Commander Zhao shook his head slightly, not expecting her to be so frank. Thinking of their abilities, he asked with some confusion, "Why don't you just finish me off? Wouldn't that be faster for you?"

"I thought about it, but on second thought you're more pleasing to the eye."

Hearing this, Zhao Xu didn't know whether to cry or laugh, "So I should thank Miss Leng for not killing me?"

"No, we are partners now."

Zhao Xu looked at the girl in front of him who was obviously only in her teens. Her aura was no less than those officials who had been working in the officialdom for many years.

This time, she looked nothing like the gentle person she was before, but he felt no sense of incongruity at all because of this person with two different temperaments in one body.

"Are you planning to take my mother to Liangzhou?"

"Ah."

"Then her poison..."

"I will take care of it, you don't have to worry. Just do as I say!" Leng Youran emphasized the last words.

Zhao Xu also understood what she meant. If he didn't obey her, she would do anything.

"I know." Zhao Xu said this and turned to leave. He took two steps and then stopped and turned back.

“There will be a big battle in the Three Gorges.”

Leng Youran nodded slightly. "Thank you. Go ahead and spend some quality time with your mother. I'll pick her up at midnight. Don't worry about the deputy commander."

Zhao Xu clasped his fists and said, "Thank you very much."

Leng Youran waved his hand and disappeared from the spot.

Zhao Xu looked in the direction she left and couldn't take his eyes away.

Is she that awesome?

There wasn't even a trace of breath left in the direction of departure?

No wonder he didn't find anything that night.

Does he have the ability to be an enemy of such a person?

The answer is obvious, of course not.

My originally tense body slowly relaxed, and I suddenly felt a sense of relief.

Without worrying about Leng Youran's ability, he walked towards his mother who was waiting for him in the distance.

Mrs. Zhuang looked at him and didn't ask them what they talked about. She was just concerned about what happened to him along the way.

Leng Youran waited until Zhao Xu left before coming out of the space and releasing the carrier pigeon in his hand.

Huanhuan and the others were very quick. Shortly after receiving the news, they drove two carriages to the place where Leng Youran had agreed to meet with her.

Leng Youran was standing in the woods behind the village. She wasn't surprised to see Huanhuan was the only one bringing people with her.

Huan Huan jumped off the carriage and saluted Leng Youran before saying, "Master, they are at the next stop. I have been looking for these people for a long time. They are very capable."

"Well, okay, bring them here!"

The people in the carriage got off one after another.

Leng Youran took a quick look and saw both men and women, but they all looked very thin.

"Do you know what you're going to do next?"

The visitors clasped their fists and said, "The hall master has already told us, master, don't worry."

Leng Youran was very satisfied with their attitudes.

"Okay, then you guys come one by one."

Leng Youran jumped onto the carriage, and soon a man came out of the carriage. The man looked nothing like the one who had entered before.

Not only the face but also the gender has changed.

Leng Youran didn't get off the carriage until she had disguised the seven people brought by Huanhuan.
