Phi-Fic Chapter 124: Saving the Crazy Mistress in Sheep's Clothing
Chapter 124: Saving the Crazy Mistress in Sheep's Clothing
It was three days later that Wen Yang woke up.
As soon as she regained consciousness, she felt the soft soil beneath her and the coolness in the air.
When I opened my eyes, I saw the bright moon hanging high in the night sky.
The moonlight coated the dark woods in front of her with a layer of white silver gauze, allowing her to see the surrounding environment clearly.
Wen Yang sat up from the ground with her arms folded, looked around, and found that she was now in a thick patch of grass.
Because I was in a coma for a long time, my mind was still confused when I woke up. I couldn’t remember what had happened before and thought I was dreaming.
It was not until a while later that she sorted out her thoughts and remembered that she and Ling Han fell off the cliff together!
She immediately lowered her head to check her condition.
I have to say that the Diamond Pill is really effective. She fell from such a high cliff, but she was not hurt at all. She didn't feel much pain when she fell, she just fainted...
After confirming that he was fine, Wen Yang stood up and looked around, but he couldn't find Ling Han anywhere...
She clearly remembered that she was holding Ling Han tightly when she fell. The two of them should have fallen in the same place. How come she was the only one left now...
[System, where is Ling Han?] Wen Yang asked the system in his heart.
However, no response was received from the system.
Wen Yang asked this question several times in his heart, but he didn't get any response from the system. It was as if it had disappeared offline...
So she could only rummage around in the bushes, trying to see if she could find Ling Han...
Just as Wen Yang was concentrating on pulling out the grass, she suddenly heard a rustling sound nearby.
Then she saw a familiar head poking out from the bushes not far ahead.
"Your Highness! You are still alive! That's great! You are still alive!!" When Qiuju saw Wen Yang, she was afraid that she had seen it wrong, so she immediately rushed over and hugged Wen Yang tightly with tears in her eyes.
Then he shouted loudly into the distance: "Your Highness is here, Your Highness is still alive!!!"
This sudden reunion made Wen Yang both surprised and happy. She had originally thought that there was a wild beast in the grass.
After hearing Qiuju's voice, the guards immediately gathered here.
When Wen Yang saw who was coming, she instantly searched her memory for the identity of the person standing at the front of the guards. She widened her eyes in shock and asked, "Uncle Luo, why are you here?"
The man called Uncle Luo by Wen Yang is named Luo An, and he is the commander of the Iron Eagle Guard.
The Iron Eagle Guards were originally subordinates of her uncle, Marquis Xuanwu, but after Marquis Xuanwu died in battle, the Iron Eagle Guards were assigned to the Crown Prince to serve as his personal guards.
However, the prince later died of illness, and Tieying was sent to Wen Yang by Emperor Ling to become the guard of the princess's mansion in Wen Yang's fiefdom in Yangzhou.
The Iron Eagle Guards were all trained and promoted by Marquis Xuanwu himself. They are all top-notch fighters in warfare. Whether they are good at fighting or using strategies, each of them is a talent.
However, because they were grateful to Marquis Xuanwu, the Iron Eagle Guard had no complaints about becoming the palace guards.
They were not usually in the capital of Ling Kingdom, because in the imperial city, no one would dare to attack the princess.
But at this moment, they appeared here...
Luo An clasped his hands and said to Wen Yang, "Your Highness, after you fell off the cliff three days ago, the Empress immediately sent people to Yangzhou to invite us into the city. Fortunately, Yangzhou is not far from the hunting grounds, so we were able to arrive in time."
"Three days?!"
Wen Yang turned her head in shock and looked at Qiu Ju who was standing next to her.
Qiuju sighed and replied, "Your Highness, you did fall off the cliff three days ago. We have been searching at the bottom of the cliff for the past few days, but we couldn't find you before. We thought you had..." As Qiuju spoke, tears welled up in her eyes again.
Wen Yang patted Qiu Ju's shoulder and said softly, "I'm sorry to have made you worry."
Qiu Ju lifted her sleeve and wiped away her tears vigorously. "I'm glad that Your Highness is okay now. When you return soon, the Empress will surely be very happy. You don't know that during the past few days since you accidentally fell off the cliff, His Majesty and the Empress have been very worried about you. The Empress cried every day, refused to eat or drink, and her hair has turned a lot whiter..."
Thinking of his mother, Wen Yang felt a dull pain in his heart.
In her memory, her mother suffered a great blow after her brother, the crown prince, passed away due to illness, and now she fell off a cliff again... Her mother must have been very worried these days.
But even so, she did not forget to capture the key words from Qiuju's words.
"Qiuju, you just said that I fell off the cliff accidentally? Who said that?"
"It was General Song who said that. He said that your bodyguard Ling Han suddenly attacked and injured someone. He shot him and also shot your horse and Princess Yongming's horse. Then your horse went crazy and took you off the cliff... and then Ling Han also jumped off the cliff with you and committed suicide..." Qiuju replied in a low voice.
The more Wen Yang listened, the more her blood boiled. She clenched her fingers into fists and cursed, "Do you really think I'm dead? How dare you make up such nonsense!"
She had thought that Song Yizi was shameless, but she had never thought that Song Yizi was so shameless. He probably saw her and Ling Han falling off the cliff together, so he thought that they had no chance of survival, so he dared to put the blame on Ling Han.
Qiu Ju was frightened by Wen Yang's sudden movement. She quickly said, "Your Highness, please calm down."
Wen Yang sighed, calming down a bit, and then asked again, "Where are Song Yizhi and Wen Yunqiu? What's going on with them now?"
This was the first time Qiuju heard His Highness call General Song and Princess Yongming by their names, and his tone clearly sounded like he was suppressing his anger.
She immediately replied, "Your Highness, General Song was shot in the chest, but because he was wearing a heart-protecting goggles, his heart meridians were not damaged. He is now in the tent, being bandaged by the medical officer, and is out of danger."
"Princess Yongming's horse was shot by an arrow, and she was kicked in the head when she was thrown off. She just woke up yesterday and is now fine..."
After hearing Qiuju's reply, Wen Yang said with a half-smile: "Really? Both of them are still alive? That's good."
However, when she said this, her smile did not reach her eyes, and the coldness in her eyes made people feel a little scared for some reason.
Wen Yang then turned to Luo An and asked, "Uncle Luo, while you were searching at the bottom of the cliff, did you see a man?"
Luo An shook his head: "We've searched the entire ten-mile radius and haven't found anyone else."
After listening to Luo An's reply, Wen Yang had an idea in his mind.
Although the system doesn't know where it has gone now, since this world has not ended yet, the target of the strategy must still exist.
Furthermore, Luo An said that Ling Han's body hadn't been found within a ten-mile radius, which meant that Ling Han was definitely still alive, but he might have gone somewhere else...
Thinking of this, Wen Yang felt relieved for the time being. As for Ling Han's whereabouts, she decided to wait until the system was online before asking.
So Wen Yang said to Qiu Ju and Tieyingwei, "Let's go."
"Your Highness, where are you going now? Do you want the Iron Eagle Guards to escort you directly back to the mansion?" Qiuju asked.
Wen Yang curled the corners of his lips and spoke in a somewhat cheerful tone: "Instead of returning to the mansion, let's go back to the hunting grounds and let Song Yizhi see the 'ghost'."
