Snatching Women from the Male Lead

Chapter 150: The Emperor’s Wife Leaves for War

Chapter 150

Yin Xuan's ear tips turned red and she said, "In the process of fighting for the top spot on the Horizontal and Vertical Path Ranking, I met Nangong Ling and developed feelings for her.

In order to get close to her, I had to come to the capital city.

Now when I think about it, Nangong Ling was perhaps the way heaven led me back to my original life path on Wuqu Star.

This is my fate.

So I came to see you today because I no longer want to evade it."

This is a regrettable story of a character in the book rebelling against the author's settings, but ultimately failing.

Qin Zhao pursed her lips and said, "It's good that you have figured it out."

Yin Xuan knelt on the ground, "Greetings, Your Highness."

Qin Zhao helped her up and said, "From now on, you don't have to bow in non-formal occasions."

"Yes, Your Highness."

"I will set off for the northwest border in eight days. You stay in the capital city with Nangong Ling to handle affairs here."

"Your Highness, if you are leaving me behind because I like her, please take back the order.

The situation at the northwest border is dangerous, I would like to go with you to better protect you."

Qin Zhao waved her hand, "No need, I brought some very capable people with me, nothing will happen.

Besides, I want you to stay by Nangong Ling's side to protect her.

The danger in the northwest border is obvious, but the crisis in the capital city is hidden, and much harder to prevent.

She needs you more than I do."

After hearing Qin Zhao's explanation, Yin Xuan no longer insisted on going together. She took her leave.

Qin Zhao returned to her desk and was halfway through copying a book when she suddenly felt uneasy in her heart, as if something bad had happened.

Qin Zhao asked 502, "Is Qi Yan Su Luo okay?"

·

Qi Yan Su Luo's hand that was holding onto the vine slowly slid down as her strength was drained. Her hand slipped off in the end and she fell!

Fortunately, she was only a dozen meters above the cliff bottom. She was caught by a bush, so there was no threat to her life. But she lost consciousness.

When she woke up again, she found herself lying in an unfamiliar room.

The walls were all made of wood. Through the window, she could see the woods outside.

A faint smell of medicine drifted into her nose.

She then became aware of the pain in her body!

Even the slightest movement made her hurt to the point of almost fainting.

She then heard the creaking sound and the opening of the door.

A young woman with plain looks and clothes walked in.

She was holding medicine and sat down beside the bed, saying, "You're awake. It must hurt a lot?

Drink this medicine and you'll feel better."

Qi Yan Su Luo said, "Thank you."

She endured the pain and tried to sit up, but was pressed down on the shoulder by the woman, "Don't move. I set your broken leg bone. You need to recuperate in bed for some time, otherwise you risk being lame."

Qi Yan Su Luo lay still as told. She drank the medicine spoon by spoon fed by the woman, and asked, "What's your name?"

"Zi Tan."

Qi Yan Su Luo also told her own name, then asked again, "May I ask how I got here and where is this place?"

Zi Tan said, "I found you unconscious while gathering herbs. Seeing you still breathing, I brought you back to treat you.

This place is called Qi Mountain. It's where people who have strayed from the right path will end up."

"What is the wrong path?"

"Qi Mountain is isolated from the world. The only way in is an extremely hidden road called the wrong path.

No living person has come here for hundreds of years."

"Living person?"

"There is a shortcut to Qi Mountain, which is the cliff you fell from. But everyone who took that path ended up dead.

You are the only one who survived taking the shortcut."

The more Qi Yan Su Luo listened, the more she felt Zi Tan was mocking her. She said, "That was not my intention."

Zi Tan said, "People only care about what you did, not what you were thinking."

This woman always spoke with hidden meanings, Qi Yan Su Luo found it tiring to listen.

Not wanting to continue with her riddles, she closed her eyes and said, "Miss, I want to rest for a while."

Zi Tan shook her head and left with the medicine bowl.

502 answered Qin Zhao's question, "The female protagonist met some trouble but nothing too serious."

Qin Zhao was relieved. Based on the time, Qi Yan Su Luo must have at least passed Yuzhou.

With so many people on her side, their marching speed was slow, so they couldn't possibly catch up to her.

She could only hope Qi Yan Su Luo would be safe before she found her.

The ten day period passed in the blink of an eye.

19th Year of Yuanjia Reign, April 25th, early morning

Cong Han helped Qin Zhao put on golden armor.

Opening the door of the bedchamber, she saw Huo Jun, Mo Qianqiu, Shen Xue, Ling Long, as well as the palace maids and servants from Princess Zhaoyang's residence, waiting in the yard.

Qin Zhao asked, "Have you prepared your luggage?"

They answered in a cacophony.

"Ready."

"All set."

"But it's a bit heavy."

Expecting aligned replies, Qin Zhao was left speechless.

After they finished speaking, Qin Zhao said, "When I'm away, all affairs big and small in the residence will be handled by Ling Long.

If anyone dares disobey Ling Long's words, I will not be lenient when I return."

With eyes brimming with tears, Ling Long replied, "Yes, Your Highness. This servant will take good care of your residence and wait for your victorious return!"

"No crying!"

Ling Long suddenly jerked in fright and loudly responded, "Yes!"

Her comical reaction made everyone laugh.

Seeing the atmosphere lighten up, Qin Zhao walked out with the clanking sound of her armor.

Everyone followed her.

Outside the residence gate were six carts loaded with luggage, and two carts for people.

Qin Zhao got on the luxurious four-wheeled carriage she modified. Huo Jun, Cong Han and Shen Xue also boarded the same carriage.

As Mo Qianqiu also needed to make woodware during the trip, she took a separate carriage.

Commoners lined the streets to see them off.

Though they were just there to watch the spectacle.

Through the carriage window, Qin Zhao tried to find a familiar figure but didn't spot the one she was looking for.

She inevitably felt some disappointment.

Once out of the city, the five thousand elite soldiers appointed by the Emperor to protect the Imperial Princess, along with the ministers, were all waiting at the city gate.

Huo Chengjin was also there, waiting on a tall horse.

Qin Zhao glanced at him through the carriage window. Seeing he looked normal with the prosthetic arm, she stopped paying attention to him.

The carriage stopped and Qin Zhao alighted.

Qin Zheng looked down at everyone from the top of the city wall, his gaze fixed on Qin Zhao.

After a while, Qin Zheng took a sword from a guard beside him. Facing Qin Zhao, he said, "I bestow this golden blade that can cut gold upon you. May you return victorious."

Qin Zhao lowered her head and bent down, loudly saying, "Thank you, Father Emperor!"

Someone brought the golden blade to Qin Zhao.

Qin Zheng then beckoned Zhou Quande to make an announcement on his behalf.

Zhou Quande proclaimed in a loud voice, "His Majesty wishes you triumphant return!"

Everyone responded in unison, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

With the sending off procedures completed, Qin Zhao was escorted away by the elite soldiers, departing the capital in splendor...
