"My lord, she's awake!"
Su Hongxiu, who was taking care of her, slowly opened her eyes as she watched the woman in front of her, and spoke excitedly.
As a slave, even when she stayed with Prince Lin, she always thought of protecting herself and doing her own thing well. As for other people or things, they have a cold attitude.
But since I came to the border area from the capital, I saw these soldiers and generals guarding the border, as well as the scenes of desperate fighting on the battlefield. She actually began to develop a sense of identification with these strangers.
After all, it is really possible for someone to lose their life for you at a distant border that you don’t know about.
"Girl, how are you feeling? Is there anything uncomfortable? Don't worry and speak slowly. We are here in Daxia's military camp and we will definitely ensure your safety." Su Hongxiu said while bringing a hot towel from the side. , wiped it on the woman’s face.
"Da, Daxia Military Camp..."
The woman looked at the surrounding environment and slowly said these four words.
"Yes, it's the Daxia military camp. There are many Daxia soldiers here. You are safe!" Su Hongxiu tried hard to calm down the woman in front of her while asking about her condition: "Girl, do you still remember you?" Where did you come from? Why did you suddenly appear at the gate of our military camp?"
After saying this, the woman in green shirt suddenly burst into tears.
"I...my name is Zhu Wanwan, and I originally lived in Fenglin Village near Luqiu City. But just last night, several barbarians suddenly came and entered our village, smashing, looting, and burning... "
"Originally we thought that these barbarians would leave after robbing things as usual. But instead they gathered all the men, women, and children in our village and suddenly started killing everyone they met..."
At this point, the woman started to faintly cry. Then he raised his hand and gently wiped the corners of his eyes.
Two lines of clear tears fell slowly, which not only made Su Hongxiu feel distressed. Even the two military guards standing behind Wang Lin could not help but be moved by what Zhu Wanwan said before them.
"What happened next? How did you come here?"
The person who said this was Wang Lin, and his voice was light and there was no emotion at all.
He didn't know why, but he always felt that the appearance of the woman named Zhu Wanwan in front of him was a coincidence. To be honest, although he also felt pity for him, he was more suspicious.
A peasant girl, not only so delicate, but also wearing a green robe. In ancient times, whether it was farming or breeding, it was the most difficult job for farmers. Even the most beautiful woman would find it difficult to maintain such a delicate appearance under such circumstances.
With such a charming look, purity and pity are barely written on her face.
Seemingly sensing Wang Lin's doubts about her identity, Zhu Wanwan sobbed and said, "When my parents saw them starting to kill people, they desperately took me to the woods for refuge. They later came with torches. Searching in the woods, my parents had to run out to attract their attention in order to save me."
"I hid in the woods and followed my parents' instructions and kept silent in the end. After they left, I came out from the depths of the woods and found out that my parents were dead..."
"I'm a weak woman who doesn't have much physical strength. Food is also tight recently. After walking for almost a night, I have no strength. Fortunately, God has eyes. I saw this camp in the distance, but I didn't expect that I was exhausted. Fainted in front of the gate."
At this point, Zhu Wanwan was still wiping her tears, as if the sad thing she had just mentioned aroused her own memories.
"Okay, this is a military camp. It's inconvenient for you to stay here for a while. When you're almost healed, you can go into the city by yourself." Wang Lin's voice still couldn't hear any emotion, and he said calmly.
When this topic was mentioned, Zhu Wanwan's expression changed instantly: "Sir, I am just an ordinary farmer's daughter. I rarely go to the city on weekdays. I am afraid that a young woman cannot live in the city, so she can only Israelite people. And I don’t know how long it is to go to the city from here. If you meet a barbarian during this distance..."
"Then what do you want?" Wang Lin interrupted her and asked directly.
Su Hongxiu on the side also said at this time: "This is our current Prince Lin in Daxia. If you have any ideas, just tell him directly. The prince is kind-hearted and will definitely help you solve it!"
Zhu Wanwan was stunned by Wang Lin's direct words. She struggled to get up and saluted Wang Lin in front of her, and then said:
"I can cook and do laundry! I hope the prince will allow civilian girls to stay in the military camp to repay the prince for saving his life!"
After saying this, even the two guards behind Wang Lin showed a look of joy with a little anticipation between their eyebrows. You must know that in this military camp, the world is dominated by men. Not to mention a delicate beauty like Zhu Wanwan, even the cook who cooks all day long is a naked, rough man.
The only woman he could see all day was Su Hongxiu next to Wang Lin. But after all, she was the maid next to the prince. Thinking about it made people feel unattainable, and no one dared to have any thoughts about her.
Although he knew that the pheasant was not worthy of the phoenix, under this kind of environment, if Zhu Wanwan could really stay in the military camp for a long time. Just looking at it on a daily basis is pleasing to the eye. After all, Zhu Wanwan is the kind of girl-next-door existence that makes people feel like they are sitting in the spring breeze when they see her.
"Since you can leave on your own, there is no need to say anything else. At the worst, I will send troops to escort you back to the city."
"Okay, you've been gone all night, and you're probably very tired, so get up first."
As Wang Lin spoke, he wanted to ask Zuo Zuo to lead a fast horse and quickly take Zhu Wanwan back to Luqiu City. Zhu Wanwan also thanked her with a dark expression, and then stood up.
But at this moment, Zhu Wanwan's feet suddenly weakened. The body that was trying to get up just now fell to the ground softly.
"Miss Zhu, what's wrong with you!"
Su Hongxiu on the side gave a rare exclamation and spoke to Zhu Wanwan in front of her.
Zhu Wanwan wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes, and said with some pain: "Maybe I have sprained my ankle, it doesn't matter-"
Just after she finished saying this, Zhu Wanwan's body, which she had just tried to force herself to stand up, went limp again. If Su Hongxiu hadn't reached out to hold her up this time, Zhu Wanwan might have fallen to the ground.
Su Hongxiu turned to look at Wang Lin and begged: "Your Majesty, Miss Zhu seems to be ill. Can you let her stay in the army for a few days to recover from her injuries before leaving?"
