Chapter 413 Zhou Sheng Ru Gu 24
Ling Xi didn't contribute anything at all to getting rid of Zhao Ping.
In other words, there was no need for her to contribute at all.
Her brother easily got rid of Zhao Ping on the grounds of disrupting peace talks and wantonly harming the lives of the people.
Xiao Wen already had evidence that Zhao Ping had poisoned him.
Just wait for the right time and present the evidence, then Zhao Ping will die with a just cause.
Even the Nanxiao court couldn't say anything.
Ling Xi stayed in Xiao Wen's house for only one day when Zhou Shengchen came to find Xiao Wen.
Ling Xi was taken to Nan Xiao's military camp by Xiao Wen.
On the way, Xiao Wen stared at Ling Xi reluctantly for a while, sighed, and said faintly:
"I don't know when we two brothers and sisters will be able to see each other again."
Ling Xi smiled and was in a good mood: "Don't worry, brother, I will write to you often. If you miss me, please write to me too."
"By the way, brother, I will secretly open a restaurant when I go back. I have already thought of a name, Qi Jin Zhao. If everything goes well, there will also be one in Nan Xiao. When the time comes, I will send you a token. With the token, you can order Qi Jin Zhao's people to do things."
Xiao Wen was very happy about his sister's trust in him.
"Okay, brother knows."
Ling Xi added: "Also, brother, I heard that Nanxiao places great emphasis on literature, and Longkang Academy is even more famous. Do you know any literati? If there is a scholar of high status to help, what you want to do will be more beneficial."
Xiao Wen thought about it and a suitable candidate popped into his mind.
"I don't have any literary help at the moment, but there is a man who is quite suitable. I'll have someone contact him when I get back. Based on my understanding of him, he shouldn't refuse this."
"Then I hope everything goes well, brother."
After entering the military camp, Ling Xi stopped talking to Xiao Wen.
The relationship between them should not be known to others.
The people in Nanchen Palace are not allowed to know.
Since the peace talks have already started, Nan Xiao will naturally treat Zhou Shengchen and his group with courtesy.
Zhou Shengchen was originally sitting in the tent, but when he heard Feng Qiao say that Ling Xi appeared, he could no longer sit still.
After walking out of the tent, Zhou Shengchen saw Ling Xi following Xiao Wen.
It had only been two days since they last met, but Zhou Shengchen felt as if it had been a lifetime ago.
During these two days, even though he knew where she was, he hadn't seen her in person, and his heart could not truly calm down for a moment.
It was not until this moment that Zhou Shengchen felt that he was alive again.
"Little Prince Nanchen, I have sent all the people from your Nanchen Palace back to you without losing a single hair."
Seeing Zhou Shengchen, Xiao Wen smiled and spoke to him as usual.
Zhou Shengchen did not answer him. At this moment, his eyes were all on Ling Xi and he could not see anyone else.
Ling Xi was a few meters behind Xiao Wen. Only when they got closer did she look at Zhou Shengchen and found that there was a dark spot under his eyes. It was obvious that he did not sleep well, or had not slept at all.
Ling Xi frowned. Why did Zhou Shengchen make himself so haggard?
She left the hairpin behind, so logically he should have known from the beginning that she would be fine.
Caught off guard, Zhou Shengchen strode forward and hugged Ling Xi tightly in his arms.
Only when he smelled the familiar slightly bitter medicinal scent on Ling Xi did Zhou Shengchen feel completely relieved.
No one knew how anxious and worried he was these two days.
He couldn't imagine what he would do if something happened to Ling Xi.
No one expected this to happen.
Ling Xi froze in place.
The man's chest was warm, and the hand around his waist was strong and powerful, as if he wanted to rub Ling Xi into his bones and blood. Ling Xi reached out and gently hugged Zhou Shengchen's waist. She could even feel Zhou Shengchen's rapidly beating heart.
She patted Zhou Shengchen's back gently, trying to calm his anxiety and restlessness.
In front of the tent, Xie Chong stroked his beard and looked at the couple hugging each other, his eyes filled with smiles.
Okay, really good.
This is truly a pleasant surprise.
His Highness finally took action.
Hong Xiaoyu and Feng Qiao looked at Zhou Shengchen in surprise, somewhat shocked that he would behave like this in public.
In addition to them, there was another angry person at the scene.
Xiao Wen stared at Zhou Shengchen and Ling Xi who were hugging each other.
To be more precise, he was staring at Zhou Shengchen.
His eyes were filled with anger.
He thought Zhou Shengchen was a rare gentleman, but who would have known that he would shamelessly hug his sister.
Can Zhou Shengchen hug his sister?
At this moment, Xiao Wen felt that he could no longer let Ling Xi stay in the Nanchen Palace.
How could he feel at ease when there was always a man by his side who wanted to kidnap his sister?
What worries him even more is that this man is not only several years older than his sister, but also the young King of Nanchen, who holds a large military force in Northern Chen.
The most serious thing is that his sister does not have no feelings for this man.
Seeing that everyone in front of the tent was looking at them, no matter how generous Ling Xi was, he couldn't stop so many people from watching.
She blushed shyly, pushed Zhou Shengchen, and said in a low voice:
"Your Majesty, can you please let me go? It will have a bad influence with so many people watching."
Zhou Shengchen then let Ling Xi go, then he looked down at her and said through gritted teeth:
"Ling Xi, you have grown up. You dare to follow others without knowing anything? Have you ever thought about what to do if you can't deal with them alone? What if something unexpected happens?"
Ling Xi lowered his head guiltily, as if condemned by Zhou Shengchen's words.
In fact, she was feeling guilty about hiding her martial arts skills. After all, in their eyes, she was just a weak female doctor who knew no martial arts.
Zhou Shengchen's chest was shaking, and he knew that he shouldn't speak to Ling Xi like this under the circumstances.
But when he thought of her being so weak, unarmed, and only knowing how to use medicine, he couldn't imagine what would happen to her if something really happened to her.
In the past two days, his mood has been up and down. He tried to comfort himself that Ling Xi would be fine, but he still couldn't help thinking about the worst outcome.
Seeing Ling Xi lowering her head because of what he said, as if she was very sad and aggrieved, Zhou Shengchen couldn't bear it anymore.
But he forced himself not to look at her and not to be soft-hearted. He had spoiled the girl too much, which was why she didn't care about her own safety.
"Little King Nanchen, I have sent this man back to you. This peace talk is over. I hope there will be no more war between Nanxiao and Beichen."
Just when the atmosphere between Zhou Shengchen and Ling Xi seemed to be getting awkward, Xiao Wen on the side finally couldn't stand it anymore.
He couldn't help but say, "Since I have sent Miss Ling Xi back to you, then the young Prince of Nanchen can leave. I have already dealt with Zhao Ping. I will inform my father of Zhao Ping's actions this time, and I will also give the explanation to Beichen in detail."
Zhou Shengchen suppressed his emotions. He looked at Xiao Wen and smiled, "Sorry to bother you, Second Prince. I don't want to meet you on the battlefield again next time."
After saying that, Zhou Shengchen pulled Ling Xi's arm and said, "Military Advisor, Xiao Yu, Feng Qiao, let's go."
Ling Xi was pulled away. She inadvertently looked at Xiao Wen and nodded at him.
Xiao Wen looked at Ling Xi's receding back, feeling reluctant to let her go.
It was unknown how long it would be before the brother and sister met again.
