They were in charge of being beautiful, and she was in charge of taking the hits.

Chapter 376 Let it go

"They don't dare take me out, afraid of taking responsibility, but I think you dare, so I want you to help me!"

The slaves avoided Bu Lingzi's gaze. Bu Lingzi rolled her eyes. Yelü Hanxuan had been away for the past few days, and they didn't know what he had been doing.

But she wouldn't let Wu Ziyan act so arrogantly, so she walked over and beckoned to her: "Then get up yourself!"

"Hey!" Wu Ziyan used his core explosive power to let out a low shout. "Ah!" Feeling pain in his wound, he lay back down.

His eyes were even glistening with tears when a voice rang out from outside: "General!"

Upon entering, he saw Bu Lingzi standing there, Wu Ziyan with tears in his eyes, and a servant kneeling on the ground. He had no choice but to fill in the blanks in his mind.

"Bu Lingzi! What did you do to her?"

Bu Lingzi pointed to herself, then to Wu Ziyan: "She wanted to get up, so I told her to get up by herself, and then you came in."

"I already told you she needs to rest in bed, why are you making her get up?"

"Ah? No, General, she wanted to get up on her own!"

"Get out! All of you, get out!"

They didn't say they would hold anyone accountable; they just kicked everyone out of there.

Now only the two of them were left in the room, and he looked like he had just come back from outside.

They were covered in dust from their journey, and the fur on their cloaks was still covered in snow.

"Here, here you go."

He put the cloak aside, afraid of letting the cold air pass to her, and in his hand he was actually holding two strings of candied hawthorns, with strawberries wrapped inside!

She swallowed hard. This man knew how to manipulate people. He held it in his hand and talked to her, but didn't get close. This was intentional!

"Why don't you speak?"

"say!"

"Where have you been these past few days? I haven't seen you at all. Without you around, I feel like the medicine tastes much better."

Hearing her say that made me feel like I was going to choke to death;

Yelü Hanxuan went to see her sister.

While disguised and passing through a town, I saw this thing.

I thought she would like it, so I bought two skewers. When I got back, I heard her say this. I should have just kept quiet.

Seeing Yelü Hanxuan's expression turn ugly, Wu Ziyan's tone did not soften.

"You're the one who told me to speak, but now that I'm saying it, you don't want to hear it."

"Pets don't usually wag their tails and ask for head pats when their owners come home."

"That's a pity, you're raising a highly intelligent horse."

"What horse? You do resemble a horse a bit, quite stubborn. But thankfully I wasn't here. Stay alive these next few days and ride back as fast as you can. I was wondering if you were already dead?"

"To be honest, I don't know if you want me to live or die?"

"Because you are so small, I feel it would be difficult to raise you. Do you like this one?"

He shook the candied hawthorn in his hand again, and Wu Ziyan was so angry that she gritted her teeth. She would never bow down for two candied hawthorns.

Sure enough, seeing her stubbornly turn her face away, he took the initiative to sit on the edge of the bed and leaned closer, even putting the candied hawthorn into her mouth.

This wasn't something she begged for; he practically offered it to her. One bite, and it was crisp, sweet, and sour—so sour it made her squint.

He wiped her tears with a handkerchief and then wiped the candy stuck to the corner of her mouth. His gaze was intense, and Wu Ziyan didn't want to look at him.

Did you take your medicine today?

"I drank it and I feel much better. Could you help me up so we can go outside for some fresh air?"

"beg me."

Wu Ziyan clenched his fists, staring at the strange creature in front of him, which was sometimes hot and sometimes cold.

"I don't need your help. I can get up by myself. At worst, I'll fall and reopen my wound."

"It's freezing cold, I don't know I'll live much longer. Sigh, even if I don't live much longer, it's good to go out and get some fresh air."

"you shut up!"

I always hear her talking about life and death, as if she's not talking about her own fate.

While telling her to shut up, I carefully helped her up from the bed.

The faint fragrance emanating from her body had been greatly diluted by the medicine; now, all you could smell when you were near her was the scent of medicine.

Seeing Yelü Hanxuan's frowning expression, Wu Ziyan knew that it must be because she hadn't showered for the past two days and her food had gone bad.

"But you can only go outside for a couple of steps, then you have to come back, because it's too windy outside."

She nodded, since he wouldn't let her speak anyway. She walked outside, put on a cloak, and leaned against Yelü Hanxuan.

Her body had become much thinner in those three days, as thin as a piece of paper.

Yelü Hanxuan didn't dare to use any force when he held it, for fear of breaking it.

Wu Ziyan looked at the sky, but no strange birds flew in. It seemed that Bei Rong's behavior was quite strict, not even a bird could fly in.

"Alright, let's go back."

He tried to pull her with his hand, but couldn't budge her. He didn't dare to pull hard, saying, "What if you freeze to death outside if you don't listen to me?"

"say!"

"I haven't even been outside for a minute, and you're already letting me in? Don't you smell how rotten I am? At least let me air out first."

"Come in, I'll give you a bath."

"I do not!"

She stood there, and Yelü Hanxuan did not forcibly pull her away, but went inside to get her a thick blanket to drape over her shoulders.

Actually, he was also quite surprised. Logically speaking, this gunshot wound was very serious, and he wouldn't be able to get out of bed for at least ten days to half a month.

This time, she was able to stand up in about three days. When she came back before, he had asked the military doctor about her condition. The military doctor said that her back was already healing!

What incredible recovery ability! He didn't have time to wait for her there, so he had someone watch over her to prevent her from running around, as he had other things to do.

At the Holy Martial Division branch, the Kite Owl mobilized all its elite forces to prepare for the operation in coordination with Chu Qiu and his team.

Wu Ziyan was unaware that war between the two countries was about to break out, largely because of her.

But she was still living a carefree life, with everything done for her.

After being exposed to the wind for a while, she shivered and the servant helped her inside.

She sat by the fireplace warming her hands. Strangely, these past few days had been unusually peaceful. Could it be that some storm was brewing?

"Summon Yelü Hanxuan!"

In the entire camp, probably only Wu Ziyan dared to call him by his given name.

The slave ran away, after all, she was a special person to Yelü Hanxuan.

Yelü Hanxuan and Hanyong were having a meeting, reviewing the city's defenses, when they heard a slave outside requesting an audience. Yelü Hanyong observed his younger brother's expression.

"Little brother, I'd like to see the beautiful woman you've been hiding."

"Sister, you'd better stop looking at it. Instead, focus on making arrangements to eliminate all those potential threats."

"So that's why you were in such a hurry. You used to play for ages. It's because of her?"

"no!"

“You’re not very good at lying, so you’re not allowed to come any closer! I’m going to check on her.”

He tried to stop his sister, but after all, she was His Majesty, and his men blocked him in a series of moves. He could only watch as his sister headed towards where Wu Ziyan was resting.
