He had been researching for so many years and had always wanted to take down a large tribe. Therefore, he had achieved some results.
"What? Why isn't she helping?"
There was no way she wouldn't help. She had been rescued. Why wouldn't she help him?
She should have done everything she could to help Commander Lu defeat them and then humiliate Long Heng for not judging people properly. This was what a princess would do!
Long Heng said calmly, "She was injured and ran away."
"Injured? Where are you injured?"
"Her face."
Pfft!
"Who hurt her?"
"Me."
"Hey, can you tell me everything in one go?"
Bai Xiangxiu was anxious to hear the whole story. However, Long Heng chose this moment to take advantage of the fact that he was a man of few words.
Long Heng found her flustered and exasperated expression hilarious. He told her about the night when they defeated Commander Lu's tribe and the two of them escaped on a horse.
He chased after Commander Lu as soon as he saw him. Commander Lu was no match for him. After a fierce battle, Commander Lu threw the woman behind him to take the bullet for himself.
Fortunately, the woman was nimble enough to avoid being hit in the vitals. However, her face was injured by Commander Lu's weapon.
She was ruthless enough to jump off the horse. However, before she left, she stabbed Commander Lu and severed his hamstring.
Long Heng ignored the woman. He only wanted to stab Commander Lu to death. He did not expect someone to come to his rescue.
Commander Lu was rescued, but the woman named Su Yun was probably going to be disfigured.
Obviously, you could have dodged it. You did it on purpose, didn't you? "
"Yes, you're smart."
Long Heng gently pinched Bai Xiangxiu's cheeks, then flopped onto the bed to rest, sprawled out on all fours.
He looked very casual and did not have the pretentious manners of the past.
Bai Xiangxiu suddenly felt that it was unwise of Su Yun to fall in love with Long Heng. After all, he was the type of CEO men who specialized in treating princess disease. However, Su Yun, who was disfigured, wouldn't give up easily!
"Tomorrow, we'll wipe out the surrounding small tribes, and then we can attack Mount Guan."
"Oh, then rest well."
"Stay with me."
Long Heng held Bai Xiangxiu in his arms and said in a very low voice, "You've suffered during this period of time. When we go back, I, Long Heng, will definitely not compensate you."
"Who wants you to compensate me? I just want you to be safe and sound, and Lin Lin to be safe and sound as well. That's all I want."
"En." Long Heng held her in his arms, smelling the pleasant smell on her body, and fell into a deep sleep.
Bai Xiangxiu did not disturb him. She only felt that the current Long Heng was the most real him.
She lay on his arm and fell asleep in his arms.
When she woke up after a while, she realized that Long Heng had already woken up. However, he was still holding her in his arms and hadn't left. She asked in a seemingly unintentional tone, "Why didn't you keep Su Yun? She should be very capable."
Long Heng smiled and said, "First of all, she's a woman."
"Are you discriminating against women?"
She pouted, showing that she was not satisfied.
However, Long Heng pinched her lips and said with a smile, "No, if a man has her confidence and her achievements, then he must be a talented general.
He's rare, but can't be used. "
"Oh?"
"Her thoughts are complicated. She can't be loyal."
"That's true. What if she's a woman?"
"A person who will betray herself to her former enemy can't be trusted no matter what.
Also, I hate the way she looks at me.
I'm a man, not a prey. I can't be the prey of any woman.
Of course, you are an exception. "
"Ah … What are you doing? Let go.
It's very heavy. What if someone wants to break in? "
"That won't happen. Aren't you very bold? Why are you so timid?"
Long Heng picked her up and placed her on his stomach, allowing her to sit on his lap.
Looking at her expression of being in a dilemma, he felt happy in his heart, so he deliberately teased her and gently propped up his legs.
"I'm not bold. I've always been timid."
"Timid enough to beat up the people of Shu Province?"
"Uh, they started it first, okay?
I thought they were bandits. "
"Oh, so timid enough to seduce the State Preceptor?"
"I actually didn't want him to scream. The only way was to sacrifice myself. Are you angry?"
"Timid enough to lie to me?"
"Who lied to you?"
"When Su Yun escaped, she said that you actually have another identity. Everything she said before was a lie."
So that Su Yun still suspected that she was a transmigrator. That's why she told Long Heng those words!
"Then, do you listen to her or me?"
"Naturally, I listen to Madam. I'm just joking with you. No one would believe that woman's words.
Okay, I'm going out. You should rest early. "
It seemed that he would have to sneak attack those small headquarters again tonight. Originally, she thought that Long Heng might really be able to destroy the country that had been hostile for nearly a thousand years. However, in the middle of the night, an accident occurred.
The Emperor's messenger rushed to the camp in the middle of the night and gave him a gold medal to return to the capital immediately without delay.
Bai Xiangxiu was so angry that she almost hit the messenger. Seeing that he was about to get the gold medal back, there was clearly something wrong!
Moreover, the gold medal was back. She inexplicably thought of the pitiful Yue Fei who was framed by a treacherous official.
Long Heng originally brought people to sneak attack. After hearing that it was the Emperor's messenger, he hurriedly returned and knelt down when he saw the imperial edict.
However, when he heard that the gold medal was telling him to return quickly, he suddenly raised his head. Bai Xiangxiu, who was in the tent, could almost see his beautiful eyes filled with unwillingness, anger, and struggle.
"Messenger, you also know that this enemy country has been beaten back by me and can only hide inside and not come out. If you give me another month, no, half a month, then this country will no longer exist."
"This … … It's not that I don't want to give you time, but the Emperor wants you to return quickly."
The messenger didn't think that Long Heng would have this kind of result. He couldn't help but be shocked and didn't dare to say anything more.
After all, this was Long Heng's territory. If he wanted to kill someone, it would be like playing around.
Just as they were in a deadlock, they saw a fast horse run into the camp, holding a shining gold medal in his hand.
The holder of this medal could run into the camp without dismounting.
"Long Heng, receive the imperial edict. The Emperor has spoken, summoning Long Heng to the capital. There must be no delay."
There was actually a gold medal. Bai Xiangxiu felt that there was definitely a problem in the capital. Why was Long Heng in such a hurry to enter the capital?
If he entered the capital with a small number of people like Yue Fei, then his position as general would be easily taken away. In addition, his family was in the Emperor's hands. Wouldn't it be easy for him to kill him?
However, if he didn't return, it would be disobeying the imperial edict. At that time, the old madame and Xiao Lin's family, who were far away in the capital, would suffer.
