"So...... Is it really okay?"

Rose was dressed in white, lying on the hospital bed, her hands and legs were bandaged, the injury was very serious, it was estimated that she would not be able to get out of bed for two or three months, fortunately, Xi has been with Rose these days, Xi is a sensible girl, she understands that if it wasn't for Rose catching her, probably the person lying on the hospital bed with bandages is herself. ()

"Sister Rose, don't worry, the two highnesses have been found by Teacher Yu, and Lord Nolan has also washed away his grievances, and the misunderstanding has been resolved, so it's really okay. ”

Mo Ling'er comforted Rose, she walked to the window, opened it a little, and the light gauze curtains fluttered in the breeze, and she was finally able to rest for a while.

Is it really okay?

Mo Ling'er leaned against the wall, looking at Lingwan outside the window, she didn't understand why Teacher Yu didn't arrest the puppet, because as long as she wanted to do it, she must have this strength, but he chose to let the puppet go, maybe for Rose, it really ended here, but for her, for Qiu Nian, it was far from over.

After this battle, she completely understood how weak she was, the other party was so strong that she and Qiu Nian could almost be pinched to death by hand, it seemed that even Teacher Yu had some scruples, even if she risked her life, I am afraid it would be difficult to hurt the other party in the slightest, in the face of such an enemy, how can I take revenge?

Even though Nolan had ordered a hunt, she really didn't have much hope, for a puppet like that, the hunt was like a joke, and even if those soldiers really wanted to meet, they probably wouldn't have returned.

Maybe in Lingwan, under the protection of Teacher Yu, the other party will not dare to come again, and she will be able to live in peace and sound, but for Mo Ling'er, this kind of life is definitely not what she wants, she doesn't want to live under anyone's protection, let alone swallow her hatred and live a life in chaos.

All kinds of troubles shrouded Mo Ling'er's heart like a cloud, her eyelids became heavier and heavier, wisps of cool breeze could not dispel her mental fatigue, and the calm North Wind City outside the window disappeared into darkness.

Mo Qiunian hurriedly supported her, no matter how she screamed, she didn't react, thinking that she was seriously injured and didn't say anything, so she hurriedly put her on another empty bed.

"She's just too tired and asleep, don't move Ling'er, let her sleep for a while. ”

Rose could feel from Mo Ling'er's eyes and tone, how tired this usually smart and strong girl was, she had suffered too much blow, but she couldn't cry and be coquettish like an ordinary girl, because no one would respond to her tears.

At this time, Mo Qiunian suddenly reacted, how long has my sister not rested? After leaving from Storm's Breath Castle, she rushed to Sunset City without sleeping all night, and rushed back from the execution on the third morning, but when she came back, she fell into the layout of the puppet, no wonder she was always a little shaky when she walked, Mo Qiunian thought she was injured.

"Qiu Nian, you are not young, there are some things I don't want to say in front of Ling'er, since you told Ling'er the truth, she has been under much more pressure than you, but she hasn't shed a single tear, why? Because Ling'er knows that she still has a younger brother to protect, and it is impossible for her to show the slightest weakness in front of you. ”

Because she knows that you are not enough to bear this pressure, she can only take the pressure on herself as much as possible, in other words, you can't protect her, so she can only protect you. Rose hesitated, but still told Mo Qiunian the truth.

Mo Qiunian was silent, he just sat quietly on the edge of the bed, looking at his sister's pale cheeks, he understood what Rose said, in the final analysis, he was too weak to do anything, let alone fight against puppets and ghosts, I am afraid that even ordinary soldiers can't beat it, and most of the time it is a drag.

Mo Ling'er's eyelids moved slightly, a tear slid down her cheek, and she didn't know what she dreamed of, Mo Qiunian subconsciously stretched out her hand to wipe it off for her, but she retracted it when she was about to touch it, he clenched his fists tightly, his chest was depressed, if he could be like Xiao Shu, like Teacher Yu......

"Don't worry, spiritual cultivation is gradual, even a genius like Ling'er can't be achieved overnight, I just want to tell you, as for the family, no one should pay unilaterally, they should help each other and bear it together...... Alas, what am I talking about, you should know this better than I do. ”

Rose stopped talking halfway through, her eyes were a little more dazed and self-deprecating, it was normal for family members to help each other and bear the burden together, but when I thought of my current family, maybe there would always be exceptions......

As if thinking of her mother, Xi turned her head and wiped her tears, Rose sighed, stretched out her hand and gently stroked her hair, wiping away her tears for her.

Xi couldn't hold back any longer, leaned down and buried her head in Rose's chest, her body trembled slightly, and she sobbed quietly, her mother was dead, and she knew in her heart that the corpse that was unrecognizable was her mother.

Rose didn't know how to comfort her, maybe she was lucky enough compared to Xi, no matter how much her father was excessive, at least she still had relatives, but Xi's father had already died, leaving only a residence and a small inheritance, but now, these are all gone, a seven or eight-year-old girl, with nothing to rely on, how should she live?

Xi never thought about this question, or she didn't realize it yet, she only knew that she would never see her mother again, forever ......

"Eve, or ......"

"Huh......?" Xi's eyes looked up with tears in her eyes.

"Nothing. ”

Rose still didn't make a decision on her own, although she was very sympathetic to Xi, but she also had to consider her current situation, she left seventy percent of the money every month to her father, and the remaining thirty percent was not enough to support her and Xi, besides, she lived in Lingwan, outsiders were not allowed to stay in Lingwan, but Rose couldn't afford to rent a house near Lingwan, and it was impossible to take Xi home to live, after all, in that place, even she herself didn't want to go back.

But it is impossible for Rose to let Xi go, she needs to think of a better way, maybe go and talk to Teacher Yu about Xi's situation, he will agree or maybe, after all, the rules are dead, people are alive, or leave some more money every month......

......

Inside the Winter Palace.

"Lord Nolan, is there something wrong with your decision?"

confiscating weapons and armor and banishing the 40,000 defenders who defected from North Wind City, this decision Mu Bai couldn't quite understand, he was the only one who dared to question Nolan, after all, Nolan was cleared of his crimes, he was still the duke, and those who fell down only hoped that Nolan would dissipate his anger and dare to jump out to refute him.

"What's wrong?" Nolan asked rhetorically.

"Although the defenders of the city were founded by you, they belong to the royal family, and you have heard that they betrayed because they fell into the spell of the other party, and they were forced to do so, since it is now over, they should find a way to untie the spell for them, but you insist on banishing them, without food and weapons, what is the difference between this and the death penalty?"

"Lord Mu Bai, have you ever fought in battle?"

"I'm a bachelor, and my spiritual cultivation is shallow, and I don't have the opportunity to go into battle to kill the enemy. ”

"You should know that in battle, if you run away, you will be sentenced to death, but you certainly don't know that if someone defects, we will not put him to death, but he will be received by all the soldiers, and his flesh will be cut off piece by piece, fried in a pan of oil, and eaten. ”

Nolan's eyes swept over all the ministers present, it seemed to be snowing in the Winter Palace, it was extremely cold, no one dared to look directly at the duke, they stared down at the tip of their noses, cold sweat dripped down their foreheads and fell to the ground, snapping, snapping......

"Not executing them on the spot is already the greatest forgiveness, my lords, when there is a war, as long as one or two people betray, it is very likely to lead to the death of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people, and if he can betray once, he can betray twice, three times...... The allegiance of this kind of people, you dare to accept it, I Nolan don't dare, betrayer, it is not a pity to die!"

In the final analysis, the garrison of the city belongs to Nolan's army, Nolan's move is tantamount to cutting off his own hands, people are willing to do this, who dares to persuade again?

The fate of 40,000 people was sealed by a promise, they had no chance to refute it, and no one was willing to stand up and risk offending Nolan to speak for them, after betraying Nolan, they had already put their lives on the puppet, but the puppet failed, so they were doomed.

Unloaded their armor and turned in their blades, only their thin clothes remained, and a full 40,000 people, lined up in a long line, under the supervision of the imperial guards, towards the endless ice field outside the North Wind City, their bodies covered with gray incantations, not human and non-ghost, barefoot, but how cold could they be?

It's over.

No one knows, but one thing they all know is that no one can undo the spell for them, banished them or be executed on the spot, there is not much difference, just a different way of dying.

Revolt?

There is no need, rather than resisting, it is better to commit suicide, lest the spell attack and die in agony or be frozen to death on the ice field.

"Haha...... Hahahaha......"

Wang Wei stopped at the gate of the city, he didn't pay attention to the guard's urging, but covered his stomach and laughed, squatted down, and kept slapping the ground, as if he saw something funny, but his laughter gradually turned into a whimper, into a cry......

Except for the guards and civilians watching the bustle, none of the 40,000 exiled people paid attention to him, and the people in front of him did not look back, as if they had not heard it, and the people behind him stepped on his body and walked forward, numb like a corpse.

Lose your marbles?

Death is going to die, and if you are crazy, you will be crazy.

"Hey, what about you, stand up quickly, don't drag on for time, if you want to die, see no, this wall can be very strong, I want to die and hit it." ”

Bang!

Blood flowed down the cracks in the walls, and a puddle of red was raised on the ground, and those who watched the excitement pointed their fingers, some said they deserved it, some said they were pitiful......

The guards were stunned for a while, and reluctantly threw Wang Wei's body aside, so as not to block him and block the way, as for those who were exiled, they didn't even look at it, maybe they envied Wang Wei's courage to commit suicide even more......
