Chapter VII: Intercession

After the war, Li Binglan led the "Silver Silk" knights to greet the four princesses of the empire and the royal guards, who were at the end of their crossbows and extremely tired in appearance and body. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

I stood beside Li Binglan and looked at the fourth princess of the Pharadis Empire, Ettiria Ferratis. Etiria should be twenty-six years old this year, with a tall figure, a beautiful face, although the face is slightly longer but has a unique charm, the pale golden skin is very delicate, a specially cut royal knight's costume fully highlights the royal nobility, more mature and delicate than at his father's banquet in Haynes three years ago, but his eyes show a cold light from time to time, and the two thin lips often have a false smile. This is clearly a resolute, scheming, and ambitious woman.

The first thing Etiria said when she saw Li Binglan was not to praise her for saving the driver, so she said in a reproachful tone: "Why has the female archduke delayed until now to come to the rescue? "The slightly deep voice has a unique charm.

Li Binglan bowed her head and bent down and replied: "The subordinates came as soon as they received the news, but because there were traitors in the army, in order to avoid the march being known to the enemy, they had to hide their whereabouts as much as possible, and the enemy troops who were ambushed along the way delayed the speed of the march, so that the rescue was late, please forgive the fourth princess!" "Seeing the careful performance of Libinglan in front of Etiria, I suddenly felt a sense of sadness that the lion was forced to succumb to the poisonous snake, and I could better understand Libinglan's situation. This is the so-called insurmountable hierarchy, right? I sighed heavily.

It seemed that seeing the indignant expressions on the faces of the soldiers of the "Silver Silk" Knights, Ettiria softened her tone and said: "I also know that General Li has worked hard, and due to the exhaustion of his mind overnight, he will inevitably be in a bad mood, so please don't take General Li to heart if he is wronged." ”

Li Binglan immediately said: "The minister is afraid! The minister knew that he could not come to the aid in time, delayed the time, and let the four princesses be under the service of the tiger and wolf overnight, which was the loss of the ministers, and now the princess is benevolent and righteous, and does not care about the fault of the ministers, and the ministers are only grateful to the princess, how can they be dissatisfied? ”

Ettiria nodded and said, "That's good." ”

Then he explained my situation and purpose to Etiria, who called me to me, looked at me, and said, "Alexander Beshatu, you have grown up and become more sensible enough to take on this great responsibility. Is your father okay? ”

I replied lightly, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your compliments and concern for my father!" Father is all well, and he is praying for His Highness every day. ”

Hearing what seemed to be a pun on my words, a flush flashed across Ettiria's face, and she glared at me reproachfully, seeing my blank expression, but she couldn't say anything.

I then handed over the letter of surrender, and Ettiria tore it open and looked at it carefully for a while, and then said to Libinglan: "Order the whole army to set off, go to Henes!" He ignored me.

I silently followed the army of Liebinglan back to the camp of the Henes Imperial Army, and on the way, the 30,000 troops led by Zolachi joined us, forming a mighty army of nearly 100,000 people, which was the complete military form of "Silver Ying". Becca Shelurista's coalition army, which had besieged Zolach's forces, hastily withdrew after learning of Elmit's defeat. Along the way, Li Binglan and I seemed to have our own thoughts, and neither of us said a word.

After returning to the camp of the Knights of the Silver Silk, I bid farewell to Princess Ettiria and Libinglan, who was dealing with the captives and trying the traitors, and after listening to Ettiria explain the time and related matters of entering the city, I joined Henes's escort and walked back to Henes.

When I entered the woods path, Li Binglan actually rode alone to follow, stopped in front of me, and said, "Let Li Binglan give the young city lord a ride." ”

I nodded, called the guards to fall some distance, and walked silently with the horse led by Lybinglan.

First of all, I couldn't bear the silence and said, "Does the general have something to say?" ”

After a long time, Li Binglan said quietly: "Alexander, are you serious about Binglan?" ”

I turned Li Binglan's body, put my hands on her fragrant shoulders, looked at the beautiful and resentful face in front of me, and said affectionately: "Binglan, I love!" My heart for you can be seen by heaven and earth, sun and moon! The sky is barren and the earth is old, the sea is dry and rotten, this love is unswerving! ”

"Alexander, it's the first time you've called Binglan's name!" Li Binglan said, staring at my eyes and pouring out her affection, "I'm true to you too!" In this life, in this life, forever, my body and mind only belong to you! In the life of Li Binglan, there will only be one lover, and that is you! ”

"Call me Alex! I love the nickname you call me. "Hearing Li Binglan's affectionate confession, my heart was full of emotion and warmth.

"Alex......" Libinglan called my name dreamily, "you know what? Before I met you, Binglan never knew what love was like, and it was you who taught me what love is! It turns out that loving someone can be so painful, so heartbreaking, so heart-wrenching, so heart-wrenching, but so sweet, that people fall deeply into it and can't extricate themselves! "On the woods path in the afternoon, Li Binglan gently leaned against me, and we told each other about our heartfelt feelings, at this time, I knew that there was one thing in the world, and it was called happiness.

When Li Binglan left my arms, she said to me sadly, "Alex, I won't enter the city with the fourth princess!" I have just received an order from the military headquarters that because the barbarians in the northwest have invaded the border of our empire, I will rush to the battlefield in the north on the same day. The northwest is dangerous, the barbarians are strong, I don't know if Binglan will be able to reunite with you alive. ”

When love meant separation, and perhaps forever, I felt a torn pain in my heart, and I knew it was futile but I still said, "Is it okay not to go?" You are not the only general in the Empire. ”

After being silent for a while, Li Binglan shook her head and said: "My situation in both the imperial army and the government is quite difficult, if I disobey the orders of the military department, they will immediately have an excuse to punish me for disobedience and treason, and then Binglan will only die faster." ”

I sighed heavily and muttered, "If I had more power...... If I had the strength to dominate the world, I wouldn't put my women in danger...... And now, I am so weak and incompetent, I can only watch the woman I love leave and run towards the unpredictable future...... "For the first time, I deeply felt the importance of power and strength.

Li Binglan seemed to hear my words, and said softly: "Alex, you have the quality to become a strong person in the world, as long as you are willing, Binglan has absolute confidence in this...... However, the road of the strong is tortuous and bitter, and the first thing to give up is the countless lives that have to give up many precious things in life...... If you become a strong person, there may be no happiness in life, and before you become a strong person, I am afraid that ...... I'm afraid that Binglan will not be able to survive the turmoil and struggle of the imperial court......"

I gently cupped Li Binglan's cheeks and said firmly: "For you, I will give up everything and become the absolute powerhouse in the world!" I will definitely have the ability to bring you back to me, Binglan, my beloved wife! Until then, you have to take care of yourself, absolutely- you can't leave me alone?! ”

"Alec, my husband! For you, I will definitely live well! Hearing my words, tears flowed from Li Binglan's beautiful eyes.

After a pause, Li Binglan suddenly remembered something important, and said nervously, "Alec, there is one more thing to tell you. Your father's friendship with Princess Ettiria is an open secret in the Empire. It is rumored that your father was instrumental in the war that led to the alliance between the Kingdom of Dotir and Becca Shelurista, and that the annexation of Haynes to the Empire was a long time ago. So when the Empire officially takes over Hennes, Princess Ettiria may soon marry your father. With the character of the fourth princess, she will not let you be the heir, especially after she has a son with your father, your situation will be even more dangerous. At that time, you must be cautious, if you can't stay any longer, you will go out of Haines and come to me in the northwest, and by my side, I will never let my husband be in danger! Remember, be sure to protect yourself! ”

I nodded and said, "I promise you!" ”

Seeing my performance, Li Binglan seemed very happy, she should have been worried that I wouldn't believe her words, although she said it tactfully, but she had already hinted that my father would also be bad for me, and no one would be happy when they heard it, let alone believe it. Li Binglan took out an inch-thick notebook from her arms and handed it to me, saying: "In this battle, I found that you have a special talent for swordsmanship, which is Binglan's experience and experience in learning swordsmanship over the years, and I hope it can help my husband." ”

I carefully hid the notebook close to my body and said, "For your sake and for myself, I will study it carefully." I will use this notebook as a token of love between you and me, and I will treasure it! "I remember when I used to learn swords from my father, I was only interested in aesthetic sword moves, and my father threw the sword away in anger, and I was never in the mood to teach the sword again. But in this war, from Li Binglan, I found that aesthetics and swordsmanship are not contradictory, but can be perfectly united.

Then Li Binglan showed a worried expression about something, glanced at me secretly, and whispered, "Alex, there is something I want to confess to you...... But, can you promise to forgive me when I say it? ”

I smiled and said, "Is it from this war?" ”

"You got it!"

I nodded, Li Binglan was taken aback, her delicate body trembled strongly, and she secretly looked at my expression, but she didn't notice my anger, so she dared to continue: "I originally planned to kill you by the hands of the enemy, so I took you with me...... I didn't think you saved me...... I know it's wrong, husband, can you forgive me? ”

I knew that this was the biggest scruple in Li Binglan's heart, so I immediately put on a straight face and said, "Of course I can't forgive!" Seeing Libing Orchid's pale expression, he continued: "I never blamed you, I can fully understand your conflicted mood at that time." If you have never blamed it, why forgive? ”

Li Binglan immediately turned her worries into joy, and said coquettishly: "You are necrotic!" It's scary! ”

Seeing the always strong Li Binglan showing such a girl's cute expression, I couldn't help laughing out loud.

"You're still laughing!" Li Binglan blushed and said.

I couldn't help but laugh even louder.

"Don't laugh!"

……

Then Li Binglan said faintly: "You don't know how worried people were at the time, worried that you would go away in anger and ignore me from now on...... Promise me not to bluff people like this in the future, okay? Binglan no longer had any courage to bear her husband's wrath. ”

I nodded and whispered, "Okay!" ”

In this way, we walked for more than an hour on a short forest path. But no matter how long the road is, there will be a time when it will come to an end, and the time of separation will always come, although it is sad, but it is also helpless. We finally reached the exit of the tree-lined path. "It's not too early, I'm leaving, husband cherishes everything!" At the end of the road, Li Binglan held my hand tightly, her face full of sadness and reluctance, "Husband, promise Binglan one more thing, what if...... If I don't live to meet you again, forget about Binglan, just like we never met. ”

"No!" I hugged Li Binglan into my arms and said very seriously and attentively, "I will only promise you one thing: I will definitely keep you by my side forever one day!" Here, I swear to you: there will be no power in the world that can separate us, and if the Empire stops it, I will completely overthrow the Empire, even if it lifts the Holy Continent from the ground! If heaven and earth stop it, I will destroy heaven and earth! If the gods stop me, I will destroy even the gods! ”

After speaking, he picked up Li Binglan's face and kissed deeply on her delicate red lips before slowly letting go of Li Binglan's delicate body.

"I, Li Binglan, also promised my husband again: Li Binglan is only a husband in this life, and she has no regrets. If this oath is violated, there is such a tree! As she spoke, Li Binglan took out the "Qilin" and cut it down at a tree beside her, and the big tree with a thick bowl mouth fell in response. "Everything is precious!" With that, I turned around and strode out of the woods, without looking back.

Behind him came a faint, long sentence: "Goodbye! ”

"I'll see you again!" I said silently in my heart, my eyes were foggy, and tears finally couldn't help pouring out, wantonly floating on the ground......
