The wound on the thigh became more and more painful, and the wound with the dagger began to show signs of redness, swelling and pus under the scorching sun of the desert. She wanted to stop, find a place to pull the dagger out, and bandage the wound briefly, otherwise she wasn't sure how much longer she could hold on.

But this is the desert.

There is no place to hide except the yellow sand.

The sun is scorching.

The climate of the desert is very strange, the temperature difference between day and night is huge, and the temperature during the day can make people feel like they are roasting on the stove.

The horse was still running forward, but Lin Jue didn't have the strength to swing the whip again.

The wound on her thigh didn't seem to hurt anymore, obviously she was sweating and her mouth was dry, but she felt unusually sleepy, looking at the yellow sand everywhere, she suddenly wanted to lie on it, she didn't ask for much, as long as she could stop and lie down and rest for a while.

"She's right there, chase! ——”

The man in black behind him found Lin Jue's figure.

In fact, it is not difficult to find a person in the desert at a glance, the scorching sun, after discovering Lin Jue, everyone was shocked and began to desperately ride in her direction.

Lin Jue gritted his teeth and clenched the reins with all the strength of his body.

But she also knew that she wouldn't last long. Under the scorching sun, she actually felt a chill. This is because of the heat stroke, but in the current situation, whether it is a leg injury or a heat stroke, she has no way to stop, as long as she stops, the group of wolves behind her will tear her clean. Not even bones will be left.

Lin Jue suddenly missed the sour plum soup made by the thrush at home, and every time, the thrush would add a small piece of ice to it very intimately. Sour and delicious. Fragrant.

She also misses the eight-treasure duck made by Qinghe, although she doesn't cook much on weekdays, the eight-treasure duck seems to be the only dish she can cook, but every time she eats, Lin Jue can taste a new taste, fat but not greasy, and never get tired of eating.

and her father, Lin Taibu.

Lin Jue suddenly discovered. It's been a long time since she's seen her real father.

Since her marriage to Nangong Yi was confirmed, Lin Taibu took her mother's ashes with her as if she had finally given up on her last heart. Back to the South. Then, he began his travels. Last time, she was poisoned by Gu, but after Nangong Yi told him that the poison on Lin Jue's body had been unraveled, he continued to travel around without worry.

Because of Nangong Yi. This is his most proud apprentice. is taking care of his daughter, so Lin Taibu is very relieved to travel all over the world.

But many things in the world don't simply follow the established route. Even if there is only one road at the beginning, there will still be many forks in the road, and it may be that one day, unconsciously, it will suddenly turn a corner, when the person walking on the road reacts. But I was sad to find that no matter how hard I tried. But they will never be able to go back to where they came.

There is also Nangong Yi......

Lin Jue's whole body was weak, and his consciousness began to become a little blurred.

If she couldn't get out of this desert this time, she wouldn't even be able to see Nangong Yi for the last time. I hope that in the next life, she can still have the memories of this life, so that maybe she can continue to find him again.

The horse was still running, but perhaps because of the high temperature around him, he was running much slower. Lin Jue was lying on the horse's back, holding on to his last breath, barely grasping the reins, swaying, and not even having the strength to sit up straight.

At that moment, an arrow pierced through the yellow sand and pierced directly into the horse's front hooves. The horse, which was already exhausted by the scorching sun, was suddenly attacked by an external force, and its front hooves weakened and fell to its knees!

The sudden movement made Lin Jue, who was lying on horseback, directly thrown out and fell into the soft yellow sand.

There was a burning feeling in the back.

But she didn't have the strength to get up again.

"Right here, damn it! is such a girl, so that we braved such a big sun to chase most of the desert! ”

The group of men in black finally caught up.

One of them pointed at Lin Jue with a big knife and said with an angry face.

The bright and flickering broadsword, under the reflection of the scorching sun, emitted a bloodthirsty white light.

"Don't be so angry, take money to do things, what is there to complain about." , Another bearded man looked at him, and then showed a disgusting look in his eyes, "However, I think this girl is not bad, wouldn't it be a pity if you kill it like this?" ”

"What do you mean?"

The rest of the people understood.

"Hey...... Anyway, it's not the first time we've done this! ”

Lin Jue, who fell in the sea of sand, was unconscious, and she didn't hear what the man in black was saying at all, and she didn't even know that the man in black had caught up.

"So who's going to take the lead first?"

"It's just you, open the **** ...... first"

The obscene and disgusting laughter was especially clear in the desert. Under the scorching sun, there was no cool breeze in the desert, as if it was still. Lin Jue fell quietly in the sea of sand, unaware of the danger he was about to face.

"The third prince is looking for me?"

In the dilapidated courtyard, Ling Mo looked at the contractor who slowly walked out of the house, first his heart sank, and then he began to look at him with a smile.

"What? Surprised? ”

The contractmaker's lips were still pouting with a habitual smile.

"I'm just a little curious, how did you get together with my royal sister?"

It seems that Ah Miao is not dead, and it seems to have a lot to do with the foreign prince in front of him.

Hearing this, the contractor laughed, "Young men and women, **, it's not a very simple thing to come together. ”

"Then bless you two first!" , Ling Mo is obviously not in the mood to talk to the contract husband, this person is both evil and good, and he can't see through people at all. "If it's all right, let me leave."

"Brother Huang, wait a minute, actually! ——”

Lord Miao glared at the contractor, and then stopped Ling Mo.

Ling Mo turned around, "Anything else?" ”

Even if she didn't kill him, the relationship between them would never be restored to the way it was, and the only thing he could do now was to hide it, as if he didn't know the fact that Lord Miao was not dead.

"Why is His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince in such a hurry to leave?"

The contractor unfolded a paper fan, learned from the appearance of the Central Plains people, and began to fan it lightly a few times.

"Oh, I see, the Sixth Highness is worried about Lord Yunshu, right? However, even if you chase it out now, it's too late. ”

"What did you do to Yun Shu?!"

"Actually, it's nothing, it's just a good rest for her first."

The contractor smiled confidently.

But Lord Miao on the side changed his face suddenly.

The contractor just asked her to capture Lin Jue and imprison her. However, Lin Er was so hateful, there was such a good opportunity, how could she miss it, so she directly gave a death order to the group of people in black who did all kinds of evil, no matter where she caught Lin Jue, she would kill her directly, leaving no one alive!

But it's not a big deal, Lin Jue has no friendship with the indentured husband, it doesn't matter if she is dead or alive, right? At most, the blame was put on the group of black-clothed people, and it was said that Lin Jue resisted and killed him by mistake.

"What do you want me to do?"

Hearing that Lin Jue had fallen into the hands of the contract husband, Ling Mo's attitude softened a lot.

"I think His Royal Highness the Sixth has misunderstood, it's not that I want you to do anything, but your queen mother, the queen mother has something to explain to you."

The contractor continued to smile.

The heterochromatic eyes reveal an indistinct emotion, and the handsome and noble face glows with dazzling light, which makes people can't help but want to get closer, but they dare not approach.

Lord Miao looked at him and unconsciously became a little stupid.

"It can't be!" , Ling Mo's face was full of suspicion, "If the queen mother has something, why don't you tell me directly, and tell you about it?" ”

Isn't this redundant?

And before coming to the northwest, he also went to say goodbye to Empress Yang, but at that time, she only explained some precautions on the way, and never mentioned other important things at all, and she didn't say anything when they met.

"This decision, Niangniang has only made up her mind in the past few days."

As if he had guessed what Ling Mo was thinking, the contractor explained.

Ling Mo took the silk handkerchief and the letter suspiciously, and carefully opened it. The handwriting in the letter does look like Empress Yang's, but the contractor is so scheming that it is not difficult for him to imitate one.

However, the content of this letter is Empress Yang's reply to his last letter.

The letter briefly said that the emperor did not let Nangong Yi carry out the secret order, and Nangong Yi did not go south, he just disappeared, and the reason for this disappearance was probably related to the four princes.

In addition to this, the letter also gave him an important order,—— together with the contract husband, take advantage of Nangong Yi's disappearance to seize the military power of the northwest city.

Ling Mo hesitated, as a prince, and he was instilled with the position that would eventually belong to him since he was a child, when his status first began to change, he had no way to accept it. But after that, he gradually began to accept this fact.

Although Empress Yang tried to comfort him like this every time, if a prince didn't even have the ability to seize the throne, even if he was allowed to do that position in the future, what was the use? He's going to be driven down by the others eventually.

But Ling Mo didn't listen.

The lessons of the eldest prince and Yuanwei Hou are still in front of him, and he doesn't want to be like these people, for that illusory position, and finally even put his own life into it.

If you really want to dig deeper, is Empress Yang really thinking about him so bent on letting him sit in that position, or is it just so that she can rule the world herself? Perhaps, the latter is more likely. (To be continued.) )
