As soon as Jiangmen Jiaojiao opened her eyes, she was paranoid that the prince had come to steal her

The middle-aged doctor who was accompanying her also said: "That's right, I won't be able to walk if this continues. Our island is really humid and it will have a great impact on the princess's legs."

"Let's go to Danzhou to find a famous doctor. The doctors there can alleviate the princess' condition with acupuncture."

Shallan was silent, her hands on her knees.

Jean grabbed Shalan's hand and said a little forcefully: "It's settled, sister, you have to take your body seriously. You will stay with me for many years! I will ask someone to prepare the boat later. Let’s prepare to go to land.”

Shalan was silent for a while and nodded: "Okay then."

My legs hurt so much that I couldn't even sleep at night.

Although Shalan is strong and tolerant, such long-term discomfort is really torturous.

Two days later, Jean took several people with Shalan and the doctor's wife to Danzhou Bay.

This time, they mainly wanted to treat Salan's leg, and they also wanted to stock up on supplies for the winter.

After landing, the Shalan siblings found a clean and low-key inn to stay, and sent people to inquire about famous doctors in Danzhou.

There are many ethnic groups in Danzhou, and as time goes by, everyone's clothing becomes mixed with each other.

The siblings had changed into clothes from other tribes before they came ashore, so naturally no one would recognize them.

Soon, his subordinates inquired about the most famous doctor in Danzhou.

But it was too late for Shalan and the others to settle down, and the doctor could only sit in the clinic to diagnose patients in the morning, and was a disciple in the afternoon.

Gene said: "We don't look for the apprentice, we look for the doctor... I happen to be tired today. Have a good rest tonight and go there early tomorrow morning."

Shallan had no objections.

After dinner, the doctor's wife helped Shalan to the bedside, undressed her, removed her hair, and watched Shalan sleep.

Shalan said: "You should also go and rest."

"I'll wait until the princess falls asleep before leaving."

"Call me princess again, this is on land." Shalan reminded me gently, "It's not a good thing for others to know your identity. You'd better call me by my name."

"it is good."

The doctor's wife smiled softly: "Yaya, go to bed quickly."

Shalan knew that she would not leave until she fell asleep, so she turned sideways and closed her eyes.

The doctor's wife stayed with her for a while. She was tired from the long boat ride and yawned again and again. Seeing that Shalan was probably asleep, she got up and left, going back to her room.

On the bed, Shalan, who had not fallen asleep for a while, opened her eyes again.

The pain in her legs was so unbearable that she really couldn't sleep.

She got up and got out of bed, put on her clothes and went to the window, gently pushing the window open a crack.

The sky had just darkened, and it wasn't too dark yet.

Human voices could be vaguely heard outside.

Shalan dragged a chair over and sat down, looking at the gray sky quietly, feeling empty in her heart.

Since she recognized the identity of her people, her thoughts on protecting the island and her people seemed to have faded away a lot.

Then there was a bit of a feeling of having nothing to do.

In fact, the island can be quite depressing at times. The salty sea breeze can bring back some not-so-good memories. Those enthusiastic people always remind her of their resentment before going down to the bay.

She agreed to Jean's leg treatment because she also wanted to change places to get some fresh air.

She had actually been to Danzhou many times before in order to exchange supplies for her tribe.

Now that I'm here again, it seems to be quite ordinary, with nothing special worth seeing.

After sitting in front of the window and looking at it for a long time, Shalan lowered her eyes and landed on the small embroidered cloth bag on her waist.

The cloth bag contained gems.

It's the gem that Xie Changqing brought back from the depths of the bay.

Looking at it, Shalan couldn't help but laugh to herself.

She hated him, was unwilling to follow him, and forced him to leave. However, after he left, she carefully collected the stone and carried it with her every day. How could she be so ridiculous?Shalan slowly took it off from her waist and opened it.

The gem fell into Shallan's slender and beautiful hands.

Without the sunshine, this gem only has a white luster, but it is still dazzling.

Shalan stared at the gem for a long time, slowly clenched her hand, looked at the darkening night, and murmured in a low voice: "Xie Changqing."

*
Yaocheng was the military camp for the border troops.

The entire city of Yao was full of barracks, and soldiers patrolled every quarter of an hour. In the night, the sound of uniform footsteps added a bit of solemnity to the city.

Xie Changqing returned to his barracks after his patrol.

Dim yellow lanterns were hung on the corridor, swaying slightly with the night breeze.

Xie Changqing went up the steps, suddenly paused for a moment and turned around.

The leaves of the small tree Shalan planted in the yard seemed to be curled up instead of being as flat and green as the previous few days.

Xie Changqing's cold eyes were fixed on that tree.

Lei Yi also looked towards the tree.

He has followed Xie Changqing for many years, and of course he knows that Miss Lan secretly planted this small tree.

The yard of Xie Changqing's barracks has always been frighteningly tidy, except for this tree, which is so unexpected that it shouldn't exist.

But Xie Changqing didn't know whether he forgot or couldn't see it before. In short, he didn't ask anyone to deal with it. Lei Yi and the others didn't dare to deal with it casually. Only the soldiers guarding the barracks would water it every few days.

Although this tree is now growing crookedly, it has never died.

Xie Changqing suddenly said: "Uproot this tree!"

"Uh……"

Lei Yi said hesitantly: "Really?"

Xie Changqing didn't say anything, just entered the room and closed the door with a bang.

Standing in front of the door, Lei Yi's eyes wandered between the crooked tree and the door panel for a while, frowning in embarrassment.

After a moment of silence, Lei Yi sighed deeply, turned and left, and asked his subordinates to pay attention to whether there was anyone in the camp who could grow flowers and grass. Does the tree seem to have any disease?

That's why the leaves are curled.

Get a doctor.

As for pulling it out...he would never dare to pull it out.

After returning from Molan Island, Xie Changqing devoted himself to daily training with the armed forces and lived a boring and boring life.

He seemed to be the same as before, but Lei Yi naturally noticed the changes in him after many years.

This man became more grim and serious, and spoke less.

Lei Yi missed the time when Xie Changzhi and Sha Lan were both in the camp.

At that time, Xie Changzhineng and Xie Changqing drank and hunted.

Miss Lan can also make Xie Changqing reveal some rare subtle emotions.

At that time, Xie Changqing was really unruly.

Now he has become cold, rigid, and overly calm, and he looks more and more like the prince.

……

Xie Changqing returned to the room, took off his soft leather armor, washed himself casually, lay down on the bed, closed his eyes and rested.

The military camp was boring and depressing, with no leisure or recreation.

In addition to training, there is rest.

This is how he has been living for the past month.

Xie Changqing lay there for a while, then suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the blue-grey tent ceiling, and couldn't help but ask himself, what is the meaning of this? (End of chapter)
