The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space

Chapter 1488: Chapter 1488: A Great Time (6)

Qi Jingchen rose and ran out, indeed, three dark spots appeared in the sky, two large and one small, and then swiftly dived down. His lips curled involuntarily, but it triggered the sore in his mouth, causing him to sharply inhale in pain.

Soon, Yang Ruxin and Gu Qingheng both appeared before him.

”It’s so good that you could come.” Qi Jingchen reached out to help the two who were bowing to him.

”Let’s first check out the situation on the other side.” Yang Ruxin smiled.

The citizens were still on the city walls, but the enemy had become smarter, no longer tormenting the citizens probably fearing they might die from such treatments, so they relied on them. Thus, after initially throwing a few down, these past two days had been quieter, although they still rotated hanging people outside the city walls.

Yang Ruxin looked at the distant towering city walls, squinting slightly at the figures suspended in mid-air by bamboo poles.

”I feel utterly powerless.” Qi Jingchen smiled wryly, ”In the palace, someone has been poisoning me for years, and if it weren’t discovered later, I would have reincarnated by now... but there are many coveting my position as the Crown Prince... This northern expedition was meant to prove to everyone that I am capable of ruling the country, but along the way, I’ve realized I’m powerless over many things...”

Yang Ruxin looked helplessly at Gu Qingheng; she really couldn’t respond well to these words, so she just listened passively.

However, Qi Jingchen didn’t wallow in self-mockery for long, he sighed deeply and turned to Yang Ruxin: ”Do you have any ideas?”

”Earlier, Eight Lord mentioned one possibility.” Yang Ruxin now felt a sense of responsibility, although it was not pleasant, she could not just watch the innocent citizens die helplessly. Her vision was good, she could even see a mother holding her own child on the city tower... Therefore, she decided to be noble this time.

”Xinxin...” Gu Qingheng frowned, ”I absolutely won’t let you risk it alone. I would disobey orders rather than agree...”

”What if you accompany me?” Yang Ruxin smiled, ”Xiaohei and Heihei can carry us over without any problem.” Yang Ruxin held Gu Qingheng’s hand, ”Don’t forget, when we were at Wanren Villa, I went in just like this.”

”Okay.” Gu Qingheng’s expression suddenly relaxed, ”I can accompany you.”

”Yang Ruxin.” Knowing the decision of the two, Qi Jingchen deeply bowed to them, ”Once we drive the enemy back to the grasslands, I, Qi Jingchen, owe you a huge favor...” Gu Qingheng himself is a soldier, so it’s his duty, but Yang Ruxin is just a woman, her actions speak of her character.

”Crown Prince, I am also a citizen of Daxuan, and everyone has a duty to their prospering country.” Yang Ruxin chuckled, ”I only do what I think I should do, and besides, if it hadn’t been for the Crown Prince inviting Senior Dao Xuzi to my house, my husband might still be crippled and blind, and I couldn’t have become a Divine Doctor, so these are all favors the Crown Prince showed me before...”

Qi Jingchen smiled gratifiedly, just about to say a few touching words when he heard Yang Ruxin continue: ”Of course, if the Crown Prince really feels uneasy, giving me more gold and silver later won’t be refused... After all, we still need to raise children and have significant expenses...”

The corners of Qi Jingchen’s mouth twitched, his moved feelings completely vanished.
