Chapter 134 The Madam Calls Me, So I Must Come
The next morning, the sun shone through the window into the room, and Qing Han woke up slowly. She rubbed her eyes and suddenly found that there was no one around her, and Ling Huaici had disappeared.
Qinghan didn't care too much. She turned over and continued to stay in bed for a while.
At this moment, an anxious voice sounded in her mind: "Hanhan, I feel a dangerous aura, you must be prepared for a fight."
Qing Han was startled by the sudden voice and couldn't help complaining, "Who is so free?"
Mu Yuan imitated Qing Han's angry look and said angrily: "It's that annoying Nanjiang Kingdom! I don't know where they got the news from, but they brought people to kill us early in the morning!"
Qing Han frowned slightly after hearing this. She took a deep breath, got out of bed, and quickly put her clothes in order.
After putting on her clothes, Qinghan suddenly smelled a faint aroma of food.
She walked out of the room and saw a sumptuous breakfast covering half of the table. Qinghan's stomach growled, and she walked straight to the table and stared at it.
When Ling Huaici walked in again with a plate of food, he happened to meet her eyes.
She was staring at him intently, her eyes full of curiosity and anticipation. Ling Huaici couldn't help but laugh out loud: "What's the matter? You keep staring at me. Why don't you sit down and eat!"
Qing Han looked at him with an almost worshipful look and exclaimed in a tender voice: "Wow, Ah Ci is really amazing! These dishes look so delicious~!"
Hearing this, Ling Huaici's face flushed with an imperceptible blush, and he muttered softly: "You...you try it first, I have one last dish, wait a moment, it will be ready soon!" After that, he turned and left a little awkwardly, and even walked a little unsteadily.
Qing Han looked at his departing back and found it very interesting, and couldn't help laughing. After Ling Huaici left, she slowly sat down, picked up a piece of meat and put it in her mouth to chew.
The wonderful taste instantly spread in her mouth, causing her to close her eyes and savor it carefully: "Hmm... This taste is even more delicious than the famous dishes at Manjianglou!"
Seeing this, Mu Yuan in her consciousness anxiously urged, "Hanhan, don't just focus on tasting the food, but think about why the people from Nanjiang Country suddenly attacked! We have to think of a countermeasure!"
However, Qing Han was not in a hurry. She continued to eat heartily and replied slowly: "Don't worry, I'm thinking about it. Don't be too anxious." As she spoke, she put a few more pieces of meat into the bowl.
Mu Yuan rolled her eyes helplessly, but could only mutter to herself in her heart.
Seeing Qinghan eating with gusto, her stomach began to growl. After all, facing such tempting food, who can resist such temptation?
Just as Qinghan was eating with great interest and relish, suddenly, a slight but strange sound came from outside.
Although the noise was not loud, it aroused her vigilance. Her heart tightened, she put down the bowl and chopsticks in her hands, stood up quickly, and walked towards the door.
When Qing Han opened the door, she was shocked by the scene in front of her. She saw a group of unfamiliar soldiers fighting fiercely with Ye Qi and Hua Ju who happened to rush back.
Ye Qi is as agile as a flying swallow, and his sword skills are sharp and varied; Huaju holds a spear, his movements are as swift as the wind, and his figure is erratic and unpredictable.
Seeing this, Qing Han's tense nerves relaxed immediately. She turned back to the house with peace of mind and continued to enjoy the delicious meal.
After all, when delicious food is in front of you, everything else can be put aside.
Of course, this is also due to his trust in Ye Qi and Hua Ju's abilities. (It's just an excuse.)
However, during the battle between the two sides, although Ye Qi and Hua Ju were able to gain the upper hand at first, as time went on, the opponent's advantage in numbers gradually became apparent. Facing the enemy's continuous attacks, they began to feel somewhat powerless.
At this moment, Ye Qi was not paying attention and was hit hard by his opponent. He flew dozens of meters away like a kite with a broken string.
In the blink of an eye, Qing Han, who happened to be passing by, was quick-witted and quick-handed. He slapped Ye Qi in his arms steadily.
"Get out of here! My food!" Qing Han glared at Ye Qi unhappily, with a hint of dissatisfaction and blame in her tone.
Upon hearing this, Ye Qi came back to his senses as if awakened from a dream, and quickly stood up. The words of thanks were stuck in his throat, and he didn't know whether to say it or not.
Huaju was forced to retreat backwards. Seeing this, Qinghan was extremely anxious and wanted to help, but her eyes fell on the food on the table. At this moment, Huaju was also knocked back.
In a flash, Qinghan and Yeqi stretched out their hands almost at the same time and caught Huaju steadily. When Huaju looked at Yeqi, a complex emotion seemed to flash in her eyes, but it was fleeting.
Qing Han was puzzled, and cautiously let go of his hand, and shouted loudly: "Ling Huaici!"
That’s right, Qinghan has a very serious obsessive-compulsive disorder, and she will never give up easily on unfinished tasks.
So, she decided to call someone without hesitation.
After hearing the shout, Ling Huaici immediately put down the work he was doing on the stove and rushed out of the room like an arrow.
Qing Han originally expected that it might take him some time to arrive, but the reality surprised her.
Seeing Ling Huaici appear in front of her at an astonishing speed, she couldn't help but wonder, "So fast?"
Ling Huaici turned his head slightly, stared at Qinghan, and responded gently: "Madam called me, so of course I came!"
His tone was firm and full of concern, as if telling Qinghan that no matter when and where she needed help, he would rush to her without hesitation.
Qing Han felt a warm current in her heart, and secretly rejoiced. Great, the food was finally saved! Once it gets cold, the taste will be greatly reduced!
At this moment, the leader of the crowd suddenly turned ugly when he heard the name "Ling Huaici". He stared at the person in front of him with a look of hesitation and disbelief, and asked stutteringly, "You...Are you really Lord Ling Huaici?"
Ling Huaici just glanced at him indifferently, and then responded coldly: "Humph, I didn't expect Xiang Chong to be even more incompetent now!"
You know, "Xiang Chong" is the honorific title of the King of Nanjiang, but he later changed his name. There is only one person in the world who dares to call him by his old name so openly and knows it well...
Upon hearing this, everyone was instantly panicked and knelt on the ground. The crowd was so dense that it was a spectacular sight. They shouted in unison: "Please calm down, young master! The information we received is that Xie Yuan secretly sneaked into the border area and attempted to send troops to attack Nanjiang. It is for this reason that the king sent us here..."
Ling Huaici interrupted impatiently, "That's enough! Go back and tell Xiang Chong to come here in person to see me at 15:30 tomorrow!"
"Yes, sir!" the guards responded in unison, but they couldn't help but groan in their hearts.
You know, to reach the capital of Nanjiang from here, even if you ride at full speed day and night, it will take at least a thousand miles.
And we have to arrive here at 3:15 p.m. tomorrow, which is almost an impossible task!
However, although everyone knew the difficulty of the task, no one dared to question or disobey orders easily.
After all, the young master in front of him was not someone to be trifled with. According to rumors, he was not only ruthless and scheming, but also possessed formidable strength and power. He played the Huo family around in circles, and was invincible.
Besides, the person being troubled this time is the ruler of a country. What does it have to do with them, the little guards?
As long as I can successfully complete the task and convey the message, other things have nothing to do with me...
Thinking of this, the guards exchanged glances with each other, then turned around and left to prepare to carry out the order.
After everyone left, Ling Huaici took a deep breath, looked at the people in front of him, and slowly explained: "In fact, Nanjiang is not as simple as it seems. It was actually established by an elite force led by my mother when she was alive. Back then, when the Huo family rebelled, this force quietly went south on the orders of my mother, and took root here, gradually growing and developing into the current Nanjiang force."
Hearing this, Qing Han couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, and said to Mu Yuan in her consciousness with a smile: "Little guy, in my opinion, your source of information seems to need further improvement!" After that, she smiled lightly, with a hint of cunning in her eyes.
These things were completely unfamiliar to Mu Yuan, but at the same time, they also allowed her to have a deeper understanding of her own spiritual spring of consciousness.
She curled her lips and muttered softly, "Oh~" She wondered in her heart, I wonder to what level of practice I need to reach before I can see through the secrets of heaven!
