Baby, don't be afraid, I'll accompany you to the heavens and the seas!

The scar on Ling Xiao's face was stretched even more grotesquely and terrifying by the vibrations emanating from his chest!

A tingling, itchy sensation welled up inside him. Before he could even figure out why he was reacting this way, he instinctively yanked Zhao Ye off the soft couch and violently pulled him into his arms. "The antidote! I'll give you the antidote!!"

Ling Xiao, his hand trembling, pressed the blood-red pill into Zhao Ye's lips, which were stained with some blood. "You'll be fine after taking it. Why are you so angry with me?!"

The blood-red pill relieved the agonizing bites on Zhao Ye's body in no time!

He was carried by Ling Xiao to a soft chair, his breath coming in short gasps as he slumped his head against the back of the chair, which was trimmed with fox fur.

Although he had taken the antidote, Zhao Ye still didn't want to talk to Ling Xiao, who was standing straight in front of him, looking somewhat at a loss.

Ling Xiao saw that Zhao Ye was still twisting his body and coughing, his two tender white thighs were soaked with sweat!

Jade sweat couldn't hold on, unable to clench the skin that had been rubbed raw, and drops of it dripped down.

Looking at the sweat stains on the ground, Ling Xiao's mind went blank, as if he had been holding a string together. He inexplicably took off his outer robe and started wiping it on the ground. "You've dirtied the floor! You're all so unruly!"

On the soft chair, Zhao Ye rested his flushed face on the back of the chair, still curled up and silent.

Ling Xiao, having wiped the floor clean, stood up. Seeing Zhao Ye, that scoundrel, acting all sly and coquettish again, curled up on the soft chair like a kitten and remained silent, he angrily flung his sleeves and left the room. "Since you're so angry, go back to your beds yourselves!!"

As for the onlookers, Qianqianluo was currently perched on the roof of Vice General Zhao Ye's house, watching the scene inside with a mixture of anticipation and heartache!

After General Lingxiao left the room, Qianqianluo carefully climbed back down from the roof to the back garden!

Shocked and heartbroken, Qianqian walked along the dark path, turning back every few steps.

boom! ! !

I was caught off guard!

Qianqian landed in the gap when General Lingxiao discovered her on the embankment, and bumped headfirst into General Wan, who had come to inspect the area without uttering a sound. "Ahhh! A ghost!!"

Seeing Qianqianluo, who had bumped into her, flailing her arms and pushing her around without any manners, Wanqing impatiently reached out and grabbed her neck. "What are you yelling about?!"

That's an inhuman, cold tone!

Qianqianluo immediately recognized Wanqing's voice.

Just as she was about to suffocate, Qianqian forced a smile, "General Wan, are you so lonely that you thought of getting up in the middle of the night to look for me?!"

Upon hearing this, Wan Qingli's already cold expression instantly turned into anger. He threw the man to the ground without any mercy and sneered, "General Luo really thinks too highly of himself and underestimates me, Wan Qingli!"

"Even if I, Wanqing, were to take in a prostitute, I would never take in servants like you!!"

"Hmph!!!" Wanqing flicked her sleeves, clutched the medicine pot for treating her acclimatization issues, and left the back garden without looking back.

Qianqian watched Wanqing's departing figure before letting out a sigh of relief and struggling to her feet.

"Ouch~ He really hit me hard! He almost snapped my neck!"

In the midst of Qianqianluo's accusations, Meiziye, carrying a glass palace lantern, anxiously searched for Qianqianluo in the darkness, "Qianqianluo, why aren't you sleeping in the middle of the night? Where have you been gallivanting off to?!"

Qianqianluo, seeing Meiziye shouting across from her, was so frightened that she forgot her pain, stepped forward and covered his mouth, then dragged him towards the back garden!

"Ugh, ugh ugh ugh!!!" Before Mei Ziye could react, Qianqianluo covered her mouth and dragged her towards the back garden!

Inside the main hall of the rear garden!

Mei Ziye took deep breaths of the fresh air, not forgetting to complain about Qianqianluo, "Qianqianluo, sneaking up to Vice General Zhao Ye's roof, what are you trying to do?"

Qianqian glanced helplessly at Mei Ziye, then plopped down in the main seat, rubbing her temples. "What is it now? Didn't I already reply to His Highness the Crown Prince's letter?!"

Upon hearing Qianqianluo's impatient tone, Mei Ziye angrily cursed, "What kind of tone is that? What kind of attitude is that? Humph! This is His Highness the Crown Prince's reply to you. Read it carefully yourself!!"

Mei Ziye tossed a roll of Xuan paper to the impatient Qianqianluo, then turned and fled into the night, disappearing without a trace!

Qianqianlu helplessly spread out the Xuan paper on the table, but her eyes kept glancing outside the hall!

On the palace lanterns outside the hall, several pitch-black crows with gleaming green eyes were perched, staring menacingly at him!

After she placed the scroll of family letter from Qing Tingyu on her lap and carefully stroked and studied it for a while, the flock of crows that had suddenly appeared scattered and flew into the sky!

The letter from Qing Tingyu was completely blank, without a single word!

Qianqianluo found it extremely exhausting to try and decipher the Crown Prince's thoughts, so she took the unwritten letter and went to rest on the couch in the inner palace.

She was awakened by the sound of horn drums the following morning!

"Qianqianluo, you've changed into red, are you still sleeping?"

Mei Ziye, carrying Yang Chenqing and a small bundle of things, huffed and puffed as they entered the inner hall, shouting and yelling!

With her hair all messy and still unaware of what was happening, Qianqian was carried by a swarm of old women to the hot spring pool in the back hall!

Amidst screams, Qianqian arrived two hours later, where the old women dressed her up from head to toe and changed her into a dance dress with an exotic flair!

Inside the main hall of the rear garden, Wanli and Lingxiao changed into the clothes of Central Plains merchants and sat in the carriage, brows furrowed with boredom, impatiently waiting for the two "sissies" from Mobei.

In the dazzling morning sunlight, two dancers, one in white and one in red, their faces veiled, their slender waists bound with ropes, and their jade feet adorned with bells, walked gracefully in the warm light, their steps accompanied by a series of piercing bell sounds, bewildering the group of soldiers from the northern desert who had come to wait!

Mei Ziye and Yang Chenqing stood guard beside the two dancers, their faces flushed, heads bowed, not daring to look directly at the two generals who had changed their appearance.

Inside the carriage, Ling Xiao gazed at a white lotus blooming in the scorching sun, his expression growing increasingly grim, and his chest heaving with uncontrollable gasps!

Wanqing concealed her emotions well, her face remaining calm and unmoved, but her hands, hidden beneath her sleeves, were trembling with excitement!

Qianqian felt that the bright red dance dress was too thin, and the exposed part of her slender waist was unbearably cold!

Deputy General Zhao Ye's face was covered by a white veil. When he noticed that Young Master Luo beside him seemed a little strange, he took off his cashmere cloak and covered Qianqian Luo with it.

"Young Master Luo, autumn has arrived in the northern desert, and the weather is extremely cold. Please take care of yourself and avoid catching a cold!"

A strange warmth surged into Qianqianluo's entire body!

She looked up and realized that it was Vice General Zhao Ye who was draping his winter coat over her shoulders!
