Knowing that Lin Xiao didn't want to expose the secret that she was disguised as a man, Li Yuyan personally applied medicine and bandaged the burns on her body.

Looking at his severely burned back and shoulders, anger and regret were like thousands of sharp needles piercing into Li Yuyan's heart.

That night, Li Yuyan killed all the rough nuns who splashed water with sticks, and even threw their bodies to feed the dogs.

As for the culprit Mo Li, although Li Yuyan did not punish her for the sake of the nanny, her life was by no means easy.

Mo Li was confined to the courtyard and could not go out, let alone cause trouble for Lin Xiao.

She was filled with hatred, her face was distorted, and her eyes were so ferocious that she wanted to eat Lin Xiao alive!
The next day.

A ray of sunlight shines into the room.

Lin Xiao's eyelashes trembled slightly on the bed, and she slowly opened her eyes, feeling a burning pain in her back.

"hiss--"

Lin Xiao took a deep breath and sat up with the burning pain in her back.

At this time, there was a small knocking sound outside the window.

The weak Lin Xiao slowly walked over and opened the window, and what came into view was a familiar yet unfamiliar face.

"Axiao, you're awake. How do you feel? Does it still hurt?"

Zhao Qian stood there with a smile on his face, unable to hide the worry and distress in his eyes.

Lin Xiao looked at him, an unusual emotion flashed across his eyes, and then he smiled slightly and asked, "Why are you here?"

Hearing this, Zhao Qian felt a strong sense of disappointment in his heart.

He thought that Lin Xiao would be very happy to see him.

But he didn't intend to give up. He took out a porcelain bottle from his arms and handed it to Lin Xiao, saying:

"This is a scar removal ointment. If you apply it, it won't leave scars."

Lin Xiao lowered his eyes and stared at the white porcelain bottle, with a hint of complexity flashing in his eyes.

After a long while, he took the porcelain bottle and said thanks: "Thank you very much."

Suddenly, she seemed to have just remembered something, and raised her eyes to look at Zhao Qian, her eyes full of worry:
"This is the Ninth Prince's Mansion. It's heavily guarded. How did you get in? Forget it, don't worry about how you got in. You'd better get out of here!"

She doesn't want to involve innocent people, and she doesn't want anyone to die because of her!
"You care about me?"

Zhao Qian's expression instantly became gentle, and he looked at Lin Xiao with burning eyes.

His eyes were dark and deep, as if they were a vast ocean, making people sink into it involuntarily.

This feeling
Lin Xiao calmly looked away and said coldly:

"You are my friend, I can't just watch something happen to you."

The word friend made Zhao Qian feel sour and bitter. He forced a smile and said, "Take good care of yourself and don't worry about me."

After speaking, he turned and prepared to leave.

"and many more!"

Before he walked away, Lin Xiao stopped him.

Zhao Qian stopped when he heard the sound, and slowly turned his head to look at Lin Xiao, thinking that she was reluctant to let him go, and his eyes were full of expectations.

"Can I ask you to do me a favor?"

This was the second time Lin Xiao took the initiative to ask him to do something.

The first time was when I went to Egret Academy to deliver a letter to Lin Xiaohu.

This is the second time.

Zhao Qian nodded:
"Well, tell me."

Whether he is going up a mountain of swords or going down into a sea of ​​fire, he will do his best to help Lin Xiao!
Who made him like Lin Xiao so much that he couldn't help himself?

Lin Xiao bit her lip and said, "Can you help me take Xiyue to the inn?"

"Xiyue?"

"Well, she is my wife, the princess of the Turkic Kingdom."

Zhao Qian was slightly startled, and the sadness in his heart spread. He forced a smile: "I'll try my best!"

After speaking, Zhao Qian turned and left.

Lin Xiao's eyes gradually dimmed, and there was a wry smile on the corner of his mouth.

Xiyue was brought to the Great Xia Dynasty from the frontier, and she must protect her, otherwise she will feel guilty.

However, it is not so easy to get in and out of the Ninth Prince's Mansion.

Their words and deeds just now had been seen by Li Yuyan who was standing in the dark.

But the strange thing is that not only did he not stop Lin Xiao's decision, he even took the initiative to let Xiyue go.

He did this not to make up for his apology to Lin Xiao, but to lure the snake out of its hole!

The reason why Zhao Qian was not beheaded was not because Zhao Qian was lucky, but because Li Yuyan did it deliberately.

Just to draw out the culprit behind them - Yu Xilin.

He is not afraid of Yu Xilin, but he is afraid of his secret weapon - the Savage Legion!
Li Yuyan knows better than anyone how powerful those unintelligent beasts are in combat.

He can't take any more chances!
Since Lin Xiao's sudden appearance disrupted his original plan, it would be better to advance the entire plan to avoid long nights and dreams!
In the guest room of the inn, candlelight flickered.

Yu Xilin was looking at the wine glass on the table in a daze, but his thoughts were far away.

Not knowing what he thought of, he raised his eyebrows, a dark and cold light flashed across his eyes, and the corners of his mouth curved into a strange arc.

Suddenly, a knock on the door came into the house, and Yu Xilin immediately suppressed the curvature of the corners of his mouth and returned to his usual gentleness and elegance.

He picked up the teapot on the table, refilled the wine glass, took a sip from the wine glass, and then raised his voice casually and asked:
"come in."

A moment after the words fell, the door was pushed open, and it was Zhao Qian who came back with the injured Xiyue.

Yu Xilin was slightly startled, then quickly stood up and saluted Xiyue with a rather concerned tone:

"Princess, why are you injured? I will send someone to find a doctor right now!"

Xiyue lowered her head slightly, her face pale and haggard, obviously frightened.

Hearing Yu Xilin's concerned voice, she suddenly raised her head and choked with tears in her eyes:
"Compared with the injuries on my husband's body, what are my injuries? You should find a way to rescue him quickly. If the damn Ninth Prince knows that my husband protected me and escaped, he will definitely torture him again. "

Upon hearing that Lin Xiao was injured, and that it was very serious, Yu Xilin's brows almost turned into knots.

He suppressed the overwhelming anger and murderous intent in his heart and comforted him softly:
"Don't worry, Princess. We need to consider this matter in the long term and must not act rashly. If the Ninth Prince really pursues the case, none of us will be able to escape the involvement."

This sentence seemed to stimulate Xiyue, making her face look even more ugly.

She suddenly clenched her fists and said fiercely: "Prepare paper and pen, I want to write a letter to my brother!"

Hearing this, Yu Xilin's eyes flashed, but there was a worried look on his face as he said:
"Absolutely not! The Khan has decided to marry the Daxia Dynasty, we can't make any mistakes!"

The more he obstructed, the more Xiyue insisted:

"My husband almost lost his life because of me. I will never allow him to stay in the house of the cannibal Ninth Prince!"

A hint of darkness flashed across Yu Xilin's eyes, but her face remained gentle:

"However, the Ninth Prince has great power and military power. We can't afford to offend him at all. If he gets angry with us, the Khan will blame him!"

"Blame? Haha, let's change to a Khan who won't blame!"

Xiyue is not a big talk, but she has this to rely on!
In the Turkic Kingdom, no one knows that the reason why Khan can secure his throne is Xiyue's brother, Prince Hao Lian.

Prince Hao Lian, who was fearless, was afraid of the tears of his little sister Hao Lian Xiyue.

As long as she cries or makes a fuss, it would be easy to replace her with another Khan!
