Rebirth of a Lost Nation: Princess, Please Respect Yourself

Chapter 273 I'll Guard You

Seeing this scene, Jiang Lige showed a slightly relieved smile on his face.

Yes, war, this game where those in power fight for power.

The people have no choice, but always bear the greatest suffering silently.

Some of them were displaced, some lost their loved ones, and some had their families broken up...

The world is so beautiful, but in their lives it is just desolate.

Fortunately, this land devastated by war has finally seen the dawn of hope.

Thinking of this, Jiang Lige turned his head and looked at Ning Yunxiao beside him.

Ning Yunxiao had not yet noticed Jiang Lige's gaze. With a smile in his eyes, he was talking to an officer. Without a single promise, he silently carried all the burdens on his shoulders, just to bring true peace and prosperity to this land.

"Ning Yunxiao, it's great to have you."

Jiang Lige's soft murmur still fell into Ning Yunxiao's ears. He suddenly turned around and smiled at Jiang Lige.

Then he said, "Ari, I will protect the peaceful and prosperous world you want."

Jiang Lige smiled and didn't bother to be polite with him.

"it is good."

After saying that, the two smiled at each other. No words were needed. That tacit understanding and deep affection were worth more than a thousand words.

Ning Yunxiao and Jiang Lige have always been people who keep their word. They said they would help the people rebuild, and they got busy the next day.

In this war between the two countries, the city most affected by the war was Liangcheng, which is located on the border between the two countries.

Liangcheng was once a small border town with frequent trade exchanges between the two countries. Although it was not rich, it was bustling in its own way.

But the ruthless flames of war, like a raging beast, tore the peace of Liangcheng to pieces, leaving behind only ruins and endless sorrow.

The streets were dusty and the occasional bird calls added a touch of desolation.

Being in the midst of it, Jiang Lige couldn't help but think of the war that destroyed his country in his previous life.

I wonder if the unarmed people in the capital of Southern Chu are as helpless as the people in Liangcheng.

I don’t even know if after the fall of Nanchu, there is anyone like Ning Yunxiao who knows how to treat the suffering of the people with kindness.

"Ali."

Jiang Lige was thinking when she suddenly heard Ning Yunxiao calling her.

Jiang Lige turned his head, "Hmm?"

Ning Yunxiao said, "There are still a few houses over there that are relatively intact. We can start with these places and build temporary homes for the homeless people."

Jiang Lige looked in the direction of Ning Yunxiao's finger and could still make out the original appearance of the houses. The damage to these houses was not too serious, so they should be repaired quickly.

As a temporary residence, it is a good choice.

"Yun Xiao has considered this very carefully. Is there anything I can help you with?"

"This is hard work. I've already agreed with Deng Sijiu that we'll gather the soldiers to help build it and clear the ruins. It's tough work, so don't bother with it," Ning Yunxiao said, smiling and scratching Jiang Lige's nose. "But I know you can't sit still, so I have more important things to give to Ah Li."

Jiang Lige didn't refuse Ning Yunxiao's kindness and said with a smile, "Oh? What's so important?"

"You've helped out in the military camp's medical tent before, so you have experience. This time, I'll leave the responsibility of leading the medical assistance to you."

Many civilians were injured to varying degrees during the war. Without good medical treatment, many innocent people might have died. If so many people died, it would be even worse if another epidemic broke out.

Thinking about it this way, this is indeed a "heavy responsibility".

So, Jiang Lige thought for a moment and asked, "Sheng Ling's army also needs a doctor to see patients. I'm afraid Doctor Shi can't leave. Has Yun Xiao made any arrangements?"

Ning Yunxiao nodded. "I've already dispatched people to the nearest county town to gather food and medicine. We'll set up a temporary medical tent near our temporary residence. I've also informed your father, the Emperor. Both countries will jointly dispatch military doctors to come and treat the wounded as best they can."

Jiang Lige said, "The casualties in Liangcheng are heavy, and ordinary military doctors are inadequate and of no use at all."

Ning Yunxiao frowned upon hearing this. "When the war broke out, anyone who could escape ran away. The possibility of finding a good doctor now is extremely low."

Jiang Lige smiled and said, "I have a way. I will take care of this matter. Yun Xiao, don't worry about it."

Ning Yunxiao didn't ask any more questions, only saying, "My Ah Li always surprises me like this."

Jiang Lige was also happy to chat with Ning Yunxiao and praised him.

"Yun Xiao always makes people feel at ease like this."

Ning Yunxiao chuckled, his eyes full of doting. He gently took Jiang Lige's hand, and the two walked side by side on the dilapidated path.

As they walked, Ning Yunxiao was reminded of the small house outside the military camp in the capital. Jiang Lige had planted a lot of flowers there when she accompanied him to recuperate.

All in all, this season is the best time for flowers to bloom.

"Ali."

I was thinking in my mind and calling out loudly.

Jiang Lige was stunned, "Huh?"

Ning Yunxiao's gaze fell gently on Jiang Lige's face and said.

"It just suddenly occurred to me that those flowers you planted outside the house outside the barracks should be in full bloom now."

Jiang Lige also thought of the path full of blooming flowers and joked with a smile.

"Yun Xiao wants to go back to Beijing to see the flowers?"

Ning Yunxiao chuckled and held Jiang Lige's hand tighter. "What's so beautiful about flowers? The most beautiful flowers are always by my side, aren't they?"

Jiang Lige's face turned red after hearing what Ning Yunxiao said. She glared at Ning Yunxiao shyly and said stubbornly.

"Even if I were a flower, I would be a thorny one, not a pretty flower by the roadside for Your Highness to admire."

"I know that flowers wither easily. It's good that Ah Li is like this."

Ning Yunxiao said this with emotion, then frowned slightly as if he remembered something, and couldn't help but remind him.

"Although the war has temporarily subsided, Ah Li must not be careless during this period. After all, if someone is determined to provoke a war, they will resort to any shady means. With so many things going on, there will inevitably be times when I am overwhelmed. So you must also be vigilant and protect yourself."

Ever since Jiang Lige came to the battlefield with the army, Ning Yunxiao would give him instructions like this from time to time, and Jiang Lige had become accustomed to it.

But when he heard it again, he couldn't help but be moved, so he straightened his expression and said.

"I know, I will protect myself."

After receiving Jiang Lige's response, Ning Yunxiao's expression finally relaxed a little. He slowly stopped, held Jiang Lige's shoulders with both hands and turned her towards him.

When their eyes met, Ning Yunxiao smiled, so gently that it seemed as if all the clouds in the sky were condensed in his eyes.

He said, "I really hope the war will end soon, so that I can hold A-Li's hand and walk along the path full of flowers. Then we can walk and walk until the flowers no longer bloom and our hair turns white."
