Allure of a Country Maiden-Chapter 1198 - 1195_1

"You all should go back to your rooms and get some rest. I want to take a nap." After tidying up, Xiao’er said.

Yang Liu and Yang Mei left to clean up their own places.

When Xiao’er was the only one left in the room, she entered the space, fed her children, then brought them out of the space and placed them on the bed. "My treasures, there’s no one around now, come out and play!"

The children could already sit stably, playing with a pile of toys on the bed.

The children started to interact with each other, always picking up toys from the bed to hand to each other. Qingqing picked up a little wooden doll, gnawed at it a few times, realized that it was inedible, and passed it to Xiao’er. Xiao’er took it, wiped the saliva on its face dry with a handkerchief, and handed it back to her.

She accepted it, glanced at it, and then passed it to her brother next to her. Then she picked up a rattle from the bed and shook it vigorously. As the rattle rang, she herself also laughed giggle.

Upon seeing this, Nuannuan tried to snatch the rattle from her. Qingqing didn’t cry but picked up another one from the bed to play with.

.....

After playing with the toys for 30 minutes with the children, Xiao’er took them back to the space, bathed them, fed them some porridge, and played with them on the specially designed playground in the space. She amused them until they were tired and fell asleep, then she started to plant a large amount of medicinal herbs for healing and hemostasis in the space.

For the sake of healing the soldiers’ injuries quickly, she needed to plant more medicinal herbs and produce more top-grade Jinchuang ointment from the space workshop!

If she worked harder, the soldiers would suffer less!

After Di Shaowei and Shangguan Xuanyi finished discussing the battle, Di Shaowei brought Shangguan Xuanyi to a room where Princess Ling’er lived.

Di Shaowei took out a key and opened the door, and the two of them walked in.

Princess Ling’er had narrowly escaped death, but she was still very weak and looked as if she had aged ten years overnight.

Upon seeing someone entering, she lifted her head and was startled when she saw it was Shangguan Xuanyi. She instinctively lowered her head, not wanting Shangguan Xuanyi to see her current ghastly state. This was the man she had liked since childhood!

Unfortunately, fate was playing with her. She couldn’t marry him in the end, and she ended up in this situation. She didn’t know what she had done wrong to deserve such a fate.

Seeing the condition of Princess Ling’er, Shangguan Xuanyi remained emotionless and indifferent, "Do you want your children back?"

Upon hearing this, Princess Ling’er raised her head to look at Shangguan Xuanyi again and realized that Shangguan Xuanyi’s eyes were as cold as before, it was as if he didn’t see any difference in her at all.

"Seeing my current state, don’t you think I have changed a lot?" Even seeing her so miserable, didn’t he have a little bit of sympathy? How could he look at her as if nothing had happened?

Upon hearing the question, Shangguan Xuanyi frowned, "How have you changed? Are you not you?"

Hearing his words, Princess Ling’er laughed. At this moment, she suddenly understood what Shangguan Xuanyi’s cold eyes meant.... he had never cared about her, so he was completely blind to her changes.

Or maybe, except for the Lady of Rui’an County, no other woman could catch his eye.

Looking at the silly smiling Princess Ling’er, Shangguan Xuanyi turned to Di Shaowei, "Did you bring me here to look at a fool?"

Di Shaowei couldn’t understand what Princess Ling’er was laughing about, "She wasn’t like this before. Maybe she’s gone crazy from missing her child."

Since Princess Ling’er got better, she had been pleading with him to save her child.

She said that Gong Zixuan was planning to use her child to harm Xiao’er. If he didn’t send someone to save her child, Xiao’er would definitely be in danger.

On hearing about her child, Princess Ling’er returned to her senses. Didn’t Prince Rui just ask if she wanted to save her child? Of course, she did. That was her flesh and blood!

"I want to save my child! Gong Zixuan and Gu Xuan are planning to use my child to harm Princess Rui. You must save my child, or Princess Rui will be in danger!" Princess Ling’er didn’t know that Shangguan Xuanyi already knew about this. She knew that Shangguan Xuanyi was deeply protective of Xiao’er, so she thought that using this as an excuse would make them help save her child.

"Have you seen Master Gu Xuan? Do you remember what he looks like?"

"Of course! I can recognize him even if he turns to ashes!" Remembering this man, Princess Ling’er gnashed her teeth in hatred.

She hated Master Gu Xuan to the bone. If it wasn’t for him, how could she be brutally gutted, and her child taken out.

"Alright, then describe what Master Gu Xuan looks like so that we can draw his portrait."

Xiangzhang County was heavily guarded, and when Di Shaowei sent someone to investigate again, he found that the area around the Burial Mound had been trapped with formations.

Di Chao had learned some basic knowledge about formations from Di Shaowei, but he didn’t dare to venture into it lightly, so he directly retreated.

While the message sent out by the spy sent by Shangguan Xuanyi came back half a month ago: Gong Zixuan and Master Gu Xuan had both left Xiangzhang County. Where they went was unknown, because they lost contact with the spy after that. It can be assumed that the spy was discovered and either captured or killed.

The message that Shangguan Xuanyi sent out was returned untouched, indicating that the homing pigeon could not find the recipient.

Upon arriving at Nangong Country, Shangguan Xuanyi’s first plan was to eliminate Gu Xuan and Gong Zixuan to ensure the safety of Xiao’er and their children.

But to his surprise, they had run away even before he arrived!

"Okay! But you have to promise me, save my child and cure her congenital deficiency first." Ling’er knew about her child’s congenital deficiency. Gong Zixuan had invited a divine doctor and used precious medicinal materials every day to keep her child alive. If her child was rescued but still weak and sick, only Prince Rui would have the ability to find someone to cure her.

She was now anxiously hoping that Shangguan Xuanyi could rescue her daughter soon. However, knowing how much Shangguan Xuanyi valued Xiao’er, she was sure he was also eager to find Gong Zixuan and Gu Xuan to kill them. Therefore, she dared to propose a condition.
