Chapter 1924 Fame Effect
Young Commander Ruan was stunned when she heard the order.
But after hearing that it was the direct order from the Imperial Family members, she could only grit her teeth and accepted the task.
The next day, they were separated into two. Young Commander Ruan had become the bait and had to travel earlier than Crown Prince Jin and the others in order to make sure the road is safe.
"Young Miss, they're really too much!" Young Commander Ruan's adjutant was angry when they were traveling. He had followed Young Commander Ruan for years, but this time, he truly felt that it was too much.
Young Commander Ruan is not those women who was glamorous in their noble families.
She took her swords and fought on the frontline in order to protect the people behind her. But in the end, she was nothing more than a tool in the hands of these people from the Imperial Family.
He's angry.
He's annoyed.
But there was nothing that he could do because denying the prince's order would be the same as courting death.
"There's nothing that I can do." Young Commander Ruan's face was also frosty, but she was holding back her temper. She knew that her background was not very strong. Even if it was strong, can it be compared to the Imperial Family?
It could never be compared.
What she could do right now was to stay patient and make sure that she would not court her own death.
Is life not good enough?
Once they reached the Capital City, she will make sure to stay as far away from these people from the Imperial Family.
They were very troublesome to handle. "Young Miss…" The adjutant looked at Young Commander Ruan with distress. He had seen how this young miss rise up through the ranks. She might not be the most capable person in the entire army, but she was still very good.
It was only in order to make sure that the people were not paying close attention to General Ruan that he didn't rise his daughter's rank too high.
If not, she might already reach 5000 men commander.
Young Commander Ruan raised her hand to stop her adjutant from speaking. "At the very least, it's good for me to be able to use a carriage again after so many years."
With her rank and status in the military, when would Young Commander Ruan used this broken carriage? She would be riding the horse and galloped through the battlefield beautifully.
Unfortunately, it was impossible to do.
When she was asked to act as Luo Qing Wei, she would have to put a 'flawless' appearance and stayed in this place.
For her who liked freedom, this was naturally very suffocating.
But Young Commander Ruan said nothing.
In the end, the adjutant also fell into silence. When it was nearing the night time, there was another ambush coming towards them. It alarmed everyone and brought them to fight again.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
"We're almost at the river and once we have crossed the river, we'll be closer to the Capital City," the adjutant reminded.
There was a bridge that was built for them to cross the river, but it was not very big. It would be impossible for them to bring the entire army to cross the river so quickly.
"There are also reinforcement over there." Young Commander Ruan gritted her teeth. She pulled her sword, ready to break through the carriage when it was needed. In the first place, she was not a soft girl who could only be protected in the carriage by others.
She has always been the one standing at the front.
At this time, she also wanted to go out and helped her soldiers.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
As the fight grew fiercer, the people who were following behind also knew that Young Commander Ruan was being attacked. However, not a single one of them come to help.
"Is it fine to do this?" Kuang Shen asked.
"It doesn't matter." Crown Prince Jin was very calm. "These people want to get Luo Qing Wei, how can I step forward and put her in the limelight and danger again? I would rather hide her far away so that no one can find her."
At this time, Kuang Shen also agreed with Crown Prince Jin's last sentence.
As for the others?
Looking at how Young Commander Ruan broke through the carriage and fought against these bandits who wanted to get Luo Qing Wei, he furrowed his eyebrows.
In the end, he looked away.
People would always die sooner or later, there was no need for him to think too much. He had someone he wanted to protect and if the cost for him to protect Luo Qing Wei was by sacrificing others, then he will do it.
He's biased.
Very biased at that.
But Kuang Shen didn't care too much about the life and death about other people unrelated to him.
Crown Prince Jin was also very calm and didn't take this matter to his heart. Born in the Imperial Family where even the people related with blood could kill each other, he was used to the scene of killing.
It might not be as bloody as it was on the battlefield.
But it was equally terrifying and disgusting.
If Young Commander Ruan could survive, then it would be good. But if she couldn't, then it would be a shame but he didn't care too much. "Princess Luo is too famous and there are a lot of people who want to find her. Let's hasten the speed tomorrow."
"Yes," Kuang Shen replied.
After crossing this bridge, there would be more of his people who were ready. Not to mention, there was still General Dou who was protecting the area. It was much safer than this place.
Only Luo Qing Wei stayed inside the carriage, not even uttering any word. For the first time in her life, she seemed to realize that danger was much closer to her than her expectation.
