Chapter Sixty-Eight: Wounded Forward
Mama Qiuchi fell for a while, and the steward Wu shrank his head to the side, he was also wronged by this matter! At first, he didn't take it seriously when the news came back, so he called someone to Tongling to ask Tong Fei what happened, but Tong Fei sent back the news that the prince may have been ambushed by a killer, and the prince is indeed missing now, and even Ayi has no news anywhere
He just started to get nervous, and after thinking about it, he decided to tell the princess, because this matter was already an open secret in Shangjin, and he didn't want the princess to hear the news from other people's mouths, and he didn't know what the reaction would be when the time came, and he didn't expect this to be the result.

Fortunately, it wasn't too serious, Shen Lao took the medicine, and the old princess woke up slowly, she looked at the housekeeper next to the bed, "What the hell is going on?"
Steward Wu had no choice but to step forward and make the news from Tong Fei clear one by one, and after finishing speaking, he stood aside with his head down and didn't dare to come out.
"In other words, Tong Fei only saw the corpse of the man in black, but not the prince?" asked the old princess.
"Yes," Steward Wu replied.
The old princess closed her eyes and stopped talking after hearing this, no matter what the case may be, no news now is the best news. Now she can't fall, I don't know how long it will take for Xuan'er to have news, since she already knows, I believe that Shangjin City should know everything, she can't let people see the jokes of Duanwangfu. Besides, there is no movement on the emperor's side, so it is not a big deal, otherwise the decree would have been made a long time ago.
Qiu Chi saw that the old princess closed her eyes and didn't speak, so she motioned for everyone to leave, don't disturb the princess's rest, and everyone did whatever they wanted.
Xingqi and Dongling Zhixuan have been walking towards the north, anyway, Xingqi has been unable to figure out the direction in the dense forest, and has been hanging behind Dongling Zhixuan not far away, not because she doesn't want to catch up, but because Dongling Zhixuan has eyes on the back of his head, and has kept a distance from her.
Of course, she didn't know that this was done by Dong Ling Zhixuan on purpose, and she had never encountered any danger along the way, even the thorn bushes had opened the way, and that was because he had opened the way for her in front.
But even with such care, Xingqi's body couldn't stand the long journey, the wound on his shoulder hurt for a while, and he lost too much blood, so he began to get dizzy after not long walking. She gritted her teeth and insisted, she didn't want to drag him down, so no matter how dizzy she was, she kept staring at the figure in front of her.
Until she couldn't hold on any longer, everything in front of her began to whirl, and cold sweat dripped from her forehead and flowed into her eyes through this gap. The sweat was salty, her piercing eyes hurt, she wanted to raise her hand to rub her eyes, but her eyes were dark, and at the moment before she fell, she subconsciously held on to a big tree beside her, leaning on the tree and looking at Dongling Zhixuan not far in front.
He stopped abruptly and turned his head to look at the diaphragm behind him, and she could only see his lips open and closed, but she couldn't hear what he was saying.
Xingqi swallowed a mouthful of saliva, gathered enough strength to speak, and asked, "What did you say?"
Before she could recover her strength, she fell into a sturdy embrace, Dong Ling Zhixuan hugged Xingqi with a gloomy face, this damn stupid woman, can't she ask for a break if she can't stand it!
Xingqi looked at the face close at hand, the muscles on his face were stiff, and he didn't have to think about it to know that he was unhappy again, hey, he should hold on a little longer, maybe he should find a place to rest.
Lying in his arms, her head resting on his shoulder, the light fragrance on her body came straight to her nose, even if she hadn't bathed for a few days, there was no uncomfortable smell of sweat, she just watched and fell asleep.
I don't know how long I slept, it was already dark when Xingqi woke up, and she was no longer sleeping in Dong Ling Zhixuan's arms. Instead, he slept on the hay, and he didn't know where Dong Ling Zhixuan found it. Next to him was a crackling fire, Dong Ling Zhixuan sat on the side and roasted a piece of rabbit meat in his hand, the meat was already roasted golden and crispy, and the aroma of the meat was overflowing, Xing Yan swallowed her saliva, her appetite increased greatly, she was really hungry.
She sat up and stared at the piece of meat, like a vicious wolf who had not eaten for a few days, and just when the saliva was about to flow out, Dong Ling Zhixuan tore half of the roasted meat, stuffed it into her hand with a wooden stick, and then ate the roast meat in her hand.
Xingqi was also not polite, learning from Dongling Zhixuan's appearance, and wanted to eat it in a big bite. But as soon as he got off his mouth, he was scalded back, and he licked his lips, like a cat eating a hot rice cake.
"Stupid!" Dong Ling Zhixuan glanced at Xing Yan's funny appearance, dropped a sarcastic sentence and continued to feast.
Xingqi pursed his mouth, made a grimace at the back of his head when he lowered his head to eat the barbecue, and when he looked up, he quickly lowered his head and bit the barbecue on his hand to cover it up. I didn't see the smile on his lips at all.
Although he has been hungry for a few days, his stomach has not been stained with some oil and water, so he has only eaten a few bites, and he is tired of eating it. At this time, Dongling Zhixuan had already finished eating the barbecue in his hand, then took out a water bag, drank two sips, clapped his hands, and lay down by the fire, closed his eyes and began to rest.
Seeing that he ignored himself, Xingqi took the barbecue meat from the stick, took out the handkerchief that he kept close to his body, put the meat in the bread, and then put it aside, thinking that he could satisfy his hunger when he was hungry.
But I couldn't sleep when I lay down, I had slept all day today, and now I don't feel sleepy. She hugged her knees and looked at Dongling Zhixuan lying behind the firelight, she was a little distracted for a while, and her thoughts didn't know where to go.
Whenever the light of the fire was small, she added some wood to it, for fear that it would catch him cold. I don't know if it's late at night.
She held a stick in one hand, hollowed out the pyre to make a gap, and covered her yawning mouth with the other, squinting her eyes and tears were about to flow out.
She thought she might as well go to sleep, or she would drag him down again tomorrow. At this time, a wolf howl resounded through the mountains and forests, and the resentment was desolate, which suddenly made Xingqi wake up. She was sure she heard it right, it was indeed a wolf howl.
She looked at Dong Ling Zhixuan opposite, and he didn't wake up. She pricked up her ears and listened carefully, except for the roar just now, and there was silence all around.
Maybe it's just a wolf, maybe it's already run away to an unknown place, she thought like this, and unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes were still nostalgic for Dongling Zhixuan's body.
She lay down to rest, closed her eyes and couldn't fall asleep. She turned around and faced Dong Ling Zhixuan, opened her eyes, and a good-looking face rushed towards her, so startled that the star diaphragm shrank back, and her heart fluttered and skipped, "Wang. Is there something wrong with the prince?"
