[Nani? ! Plot bug? Are you sure you are not playing tricks on me? Why do I catch up with all the good things? ] Cheng Xi really felt that it was fantasy. She finally got some ambition and wanted to do a task, but it turned out that she was a reborn person and there was a plot bug. If she co-authored it, she would be tormented, right?

Main system, are you sincerely against me? You just don’t want to see me live a good life, right?

Cheng Xi's mood is on the verge of collapse, but the top priority is to quickly determine the villain's safety. The fact that the mission has not yet been declared a failure means that the villain is safe so far, and at least his life is not in danger.

Thinking of this, Cheng Xi relaxed a little. She excused herself from having a headache and asked Chang Yue to go to the Tai Hospital to grab some medicine for her. After leaving the people, she immediately called An Yi.

"The situation is urgent. Go and find Qianzhu and tell him that this princess is in an emergency and you need to see him immediately!" Cheng Xi ordered, barely able to calm down.

Qianzhu is a person known by the original owner who works in the intelligence organization. Under normal circumstances, as long as he takes action, there is no one who can't be found.

[What’s going on with the plot bug? ] Cheng Xi only flashed, and the next second her consciousness appeared in the space where Xiao Xueqiu was. She asked with her hands on her hips menacingly.

Little Snowball was so scared that she shivered. It was really scary for her sister to lose her temper. Uh-huh-huh...

[I’m not sure, maybe it’s because of the butterfly effect we brought. The feedback said it’s a normal phenomenon, so let’s adapt accordingly. ] Xiao Xueqiu read the words that appeared on the screen to Cheng Xi, and finally managed a flattering smile.

[The Butterfly Effect? Okay, bad luck for me, I'm leaving. ] Cheng Xi knew in her heart that it would be useless to continue to pester him, so she simply accepted it frankly, turned around and left.

Qianzhu came very quickly. He was dressed in white, slowly waving the folding fan in his hand, with picturesque features, like a banished immortal in the book, who did not like the fireworks of the world.

"Hey, I thought Her Highness the Princess didn't need me anymore?" Qianzhu asked in a strange way as soon as he opened his mouth. If this little heartless guy didn't have a useful place for him, he would never know when he would think of him.

"Good Qianzhu, good brother Qianzhu, please help me just this once, please." Cheng Xi imitated the original owner's behavior and acted coquettishly with Qianzhu. The effect was very good, and the man's expression softened a lot.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Cheng Xi continued: "I want to find someone, the third prince Xu Ye, and I would like to ask Qian Zhugang to pay more attention to me. Xixi will definitely repay you well."

Upon hearing this name, Qianzhu's handsome brows furrowed, "The one who rebelled a few days ago? There have been a lot of people inquiring about him recently, and they are all people in the world who have put a reward on his life. Why? Are you interested in this too?"

"No, it's just that Xu Ye and I have a deep friendship, so I wanted to inquire about his whereabouts." Cheng Xi quickly defended, fearing that Qianzhu would be suspicious, and made up a seemingly reasonable reason.

"I will help you keep an eye on it, but there is no need to repay you," Qianzhu folded the fan in his hand and said seriously, "I promised you that whenever you need help, just call me , I will obey the princess’s orders, and now it’s time for me to fulfill my promise.”

"Thank you."

Qianzhu seemed to be disgusted by her words. He took a few steps back pretending to be disgusted. The traces of acting were so obvious that Cheng Xi didn't want to expose them, but she still cooperated and covered her heart.

After Qianzhu saw Cheng Xi's reaction, he walked up to her with a smile, touched her head as before, and then turned around and left without any hesitation.

With Qianzhu's help, Cheng Xi received a letter from him in the evening of the next day. She anxiously unfolded the small piece of paper. There were seven words written on it: outside the city, southwest, fifty miles away. .

Cheng Xi held the note, and the anxiety she felt these days finally disappeared. She reached out to light the note and decided to go to the address written on the note tomorrow.

She had to determine whether Xu Ye's current situation was safe. As for the mission, she could only put it aside for the time being.

At night, the window in the bedroom was open, a cool breeze blew by, and the gauze hanging beside the bed was blown high by the wind. Cheng Xi was sleeping soundly, with the quilt only covering his stomach, and the white trousers on his body. His clothes were also in a mess, exposing his collarbones and white calves.

Xu Ye stood by the bed and watched silently, like a statue. After half a stick of incense, the statue finally moved.

He sat on the edge of the bed and looked at the girl he had longed for, with forbearance and restraint.

He originally thought that he could become the new emperor in one fell swoop. The eighteen-year-old boy was so proud and arrogant that he didn't leave any escape route for himself.

But what they never expected was that there would be traitors in the army. Their rebellion plan was leaked. Before they reached the capital, they encountered an ambush by officers and soldiers at Qihu Ridge. Two hundred thousand soldiers died and were injured. , several subordinates resisted to the death, and only a few of them managed to survive the siege.

Not daring to delay, they immediately rode their horses and ran all the way, not even half as high-spirited as when they first arrived. Because Bai Lan was hit by an arrow in the abdomen and bleeding continued, they had no choice but to find a ruined temple to stay temporarily.

Several people were running away in the dust, their faces were dirty, and their bodies had wounds of varying degrees.

That night, Xu Ye sat in front of the fire without saying a word. After Chen Si helped Bai Lan wipe his wounds, he saw his appearance. The shadow of defeat was like a lingering dark cloud, no matter what they did. Nothing, no matter when, can't get rid of it.

"You're injured too. It doesn't matter. Let me wipe it for you." Chen Si sat over with a not too clean handkerchief.

They were running for their lives, not to mention the medicine for their wounds, even the handkerchiefs made by Chen Si were made from torn off robes.

Xu Ye shook his head. The knife wound on his arm had scabbed over, leaving only a dark red mark, which looked a bit scary.

Chen Si could understand his mood, so he just stayed by the side without speaking. It was still a familiar scene, with two people who shared the same idea surrounding the fire, but this time, they couldn't laugh no matter what.

"Ugh... it hurts... I'm going to die, Lord..." Bai Lan, whose upper body was naked, had cold sweat on his painful forehead. He let out a weak moan. The injury on his waist was particularly serious, and he was slightly uncomfortable. Be careful and inflammation and pus discharge may occur.

When Chen Si heard the noise, he stood up and walked to his side. Looking at the pale Bai Lan, he was a little at a loss and couldn't think of any way to relieve his pain.

"Xu Ye," Chen Si's throat was a little dry, "Bai Lan can't wait any longer. His injury is very serious. We have to get him some medicine, otherwise he will die."

"I'll think of a way to prevent anything from happening to him." Xu Ye looked at Bai Lan in a coma and secretly made up his mind to cure him.

In the second half of the night, Bai Lan felt a little hot due to the wound, and his cheeks became red. He closed his eyes and gasped hard. Along the corners of his eyes, a few hot tears disappeared into his temples.

Xu Ye fed Bai Lan slightly heated river water, which was the cleanest water he could find, but because it was far away from their diagonal dilapidated temple, he only brought back a very small amount of water.
