Song Shuwan was stunned on the spot. She didn't expect to hear such a sentence at all. When she reacted, Lao Wu had already turned her back.
She pursed her lips and didn't ask any further questions. She just leaned against the tree trunk and waited for Lao Liu to come back.
However, time passed. Seeing that half an hour had passed, Lao Liu still did not turn around. Song Shuwan and Lao Wu's expressions became solemn.
After hesitating, Song Shuwan asked, "Do you want to go back and have a look?"
Lao Wu was a little moved, but he quickly shook his head and refused.
"Wait a little longer. If you don't come back, we'll leave."
Song Shuwan unconsciously tightened her fingers, the emotions in her eyes changed, and she couldn't help but ask: "Aren't you worried about him?"
Lao Wu's eyes were strange: "Worried? We came here just to fight for our lives, why are we talking about this?"
Song Shuwan was silent. She was confused. How could someone who could say "If you can't be saved, you will die there" care about other people's lives?
After a while, Lao Wu saw that Lao Liu had not come back yet, so he decided to leave.
Song Shuwan felt uncomfortable, but she still kept up.
The sky around him was getting dark. Lao Wu stopped from time to time to check the direction, and then made some adjustments.
Song Shuwan didn't know the road, so she didn't say anything along the way and just followed quietly.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, just when Song Shuwan felt that her legs were no longer hers, Lao Wu suddenly stopped.
Song Shuwan asked subconsciously: "Going out of the forest?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she realized that not only had they not left the forest, but they were also surrounded.
Seeing the Beidi people appearing from all directions, Song Shuwan's heart couldn't stop sinking: "Lao Wu, run away."
She is still useful to Anqing, and there is a possibility of surviving if she is caught, but Lao Wu is different. Lao Wu will only die if he is caught.
Lao Wu didn't move or make a sound.
Song Shuwan clenched her fingers tightly, and her fingertips dug into the tender flesh of her palm. The sharp sting made her very calm.
"Lao Wu, listen to me and leave immediately. We have no chance. If we can save one life, just save one life."
Lao Wu finally moved, but instead of leaving, he pulled out the long knife he carried.
He said: "If I can't take you away today, even if I go back, I will die."
Song Shuwan's heart trembled. Was Princess Taining so harsh on her subordinates?
At this moment, a person walked out from behind: "Song Shuwan, just let's capture you without any effort. The people who came to save you are almost dead. Are you sure you want to let this last person lose his life?"
Song Shuwan turned her head and turned around with complicated thoughts. She was not qualified to negotiate terms, but she would not be willing to accept her fate like this.
The people on the other side looked at Song Shuwan, as if they had guessed what she was thinking, and said with a smile: "Miss Song, don't even think about running away. Our general has already made arrangements. He said that no one can leave today. No one can leave, Miss Song, please."
Lao Wu frowned and was about to take action when Song Shuwan held down the handle of the knife.
Song Shuwan said softly: "I know you are not afraid of death, but meaningless death is of no use to reality, so press your impulse and go back with me..."
Before she could finish speaking, countless arrows were shot from all around.
Just when the people in Beidi felt that everything was under control, they were caught off guard by the sudden appearance of arrows, and most of them lost their lives in an instant.
Song Shuwan was stunned, what's going on?
The next moment, an indifferent voice sounded: "Leave no one behind."
Song Shuwan's eyes suddenly lit up: "Your Majesty!"
Yes, the voice that suddenly appeared was Pei Huan's voice.
As Song Shuwan finished speaking, Pei Huan appeared and approached her very quickly: "Are you okay?"
Seeing the concern in his eyes, Song Shuwan slightly pulled the corners of her lips: "It's okay, they didn't touch me."
Having said that, Pei Huan's face was still solemn.
"You've been frightened these past few days."
Song Shuwan frowned. She was indeed a little frightened, but she didn't think anything would happen to her.
After all, she believed in Pei Huan.
Thinking of this, Song Shuwan chuckled: "Your Majesty, you don't need to say too much, I know it well."
Pei Huan nodded slightly, and then looked back, the coldness in his eyes became more obvious: "But you have everything you need. If some people dare to reach out casually, they must be prepared to have their hands cut off."
Song Shuwan pursed her lips. She had nothing to say about Pei Huan's plan, but the worries in her heart turned, and finally turned into a warning.
"You have to be careful."
Not long after, the surrounding Beidi people were cleared away, and Lao Wu was also targeted by Pei Huan.
"You said you are Princess Taining's?"
Lao Wu lowered his head and said respectfully: "Yes."
Pei Huan frowned slightly: "I didn't expect that she would send someone here."
Lao Wu didn't dare to say anything.
However, after Pei Huan got the explanation, he didn't pay attention to him. He turned around and left the forest with Song Shuwan.
Song Shuwan asked him where he was going, and Pei Huan said Anyuan City. "After I led people away earlier, I captured the city closest to Dazhou in Beidi. Calculating the time, Anqing should also have received the news. There will definitely be action there, so I have to send you back to Anyuan City first. , go and fight Anqing again."
An hour later, Song Shuwan stepped into Anyuan City.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he showed up, he was surrounded by people who came to pick up Pei Huan.
"Song Shuwan? Do you still dare to come back?"
"Damn it, you betrayed Da Zhou, are you looking for death when you come back?"
"Get out, we in Anyuan City do not welcome traitors."
"Get out, get out..."
In the chaos, some people took rotten eggs from nowhere and threw them directly at Song Shuwan.
There was a "pop" sound, and a tall figure stood in front of Song Shuwan.
When everyone saw the person who was hit clearly, the surrounding chaos and noise disappeared instantly.
"Shi, Shizi, why did you come out suddenly?"
In the silence, a commoner spoke tremblingly.
Pei Huan glanced at the clothes stained with rotten eggs and said calmly: "If you want to hit my wife, I will naturally come out. Tell me, what are you all yelling about?"
In fact, Pei Huan knew the news spreading in Anyuan City, and he had specially arranged today's reception, for no other reason than to minimize the impact.
For some things, it is better to explain things clearly than to pretend to be confused.
There was another moment of silence, and an old man walked out from behind and told all the recent news about Anyuan City. Then he pointed at Song Shuwan and said, "Your Majesty, such a woman is not worthy of you at all."
Pei Huan laughed angrily: "She is not worthy of me, so who do you think can be worthy of me?"
"Princess Taining."
As soon as these four words came out, Pei Huan suddenly knew something in his mind.
Apparently, not only was he thinking about solving the problem, but Princess Taining was also thinking about intervening in the middle, just to make things more troublesome.
In this case, don't blame him for not giving face.
