Chapter 193: Does your promise still count?
“I don’t complain, but it’s a lot less fun spending time with my wife.” Wei Ling said with a smile.
Su Jixiang's face turned red again.
He is indeed a thousand-year-old male fox!
Any random word you say will make people blush and their hearts beat faster.
"Then I'll leave first." After Wei Ling said this to Su Jixiang, he kissed her hard on the face before letting her go.
"Yeah." Su Jixiang touched the place where Wei Ling kissed him and nodded.
Wei Ling turned around, opened the door and left.
Su Jixiang only felt a slight movement in her heart, but she still resisted the urge to ask him where he was going.
Her intuition told her that what Wei Ling was going to do would not be simple.
But she couldn't ask.
She knew that if she asked, Wei Ling would definitely tell her.
But Su Jixiang still respected Wei Ling's choice.
Su Jixiang walked to the door and opened it. It was pitch black outside. Only the light under the eaves illuminated the small area, which was a ray of light in the darkness.
Wei Ling's figure had disappeared. Just as he had returned quietly, he left in a hurry.
Wei Ling selected a dozen elite secret guards, put on their uniforms, and left the city before the gates of Mangcheng closed at night.
They only told the public that he was patrolling the city.
After all, it takes several days to patrol the city, and it takes six to ten days to walk around the perimeter of Mangcheng, depending on the patrol route.
He went there to kill the spies sent by the imperial court.
He calculated the distance and found that they would meet the spies from the capital in the last town before reaching the border of Mangcheng, two thousand miles away.
There are mountains outside the town, and bandits often roam around there all year round, so it's the best excuse to put the blame on others.
The spy was killed by bandits, so what does it have to do with the Black Tiger Army guarding Mangcheng.
However, as long as this thing is done, it will really create a rift between him and Emperor Longchang.
But what does it matter?
Emperor Longchang has already sent out spies, who are clearly here to investigate whether he killed the deposed emperor, and are here to cause trouble for him in Mangcheng.
He will use practical actions to tell Emperor Longchang that Mangcheng is not a place he can move to whenever he wants. He, Wei Ling, is different from anyone in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, and is certainly not someone who will sit and wait for death!
Don't push him too far!
If Emperor Longchang no longer pursues the matter, they will still be monarch and subject.
But if Emperor Longchang insists on holding on to this matter, then don't blame him for becoming rebellious.
Prince Chenliu is still eyeing the area north of the Yangtze River. Unless Emperor Longchang is out of his mind, he would not go out of his way to cause trouble for him at this time. As long as Emperor Longchang gets angry, Prince Chenliu will definitely send people to sneak into Mangcheng to incite him to rebel.
The Black Tiger Army under his command might not be the largest army under Emperor Longchang's command, but it was definitely the team with the highest combat quality. From the beginning of Emperor Longchang's rebellion until he entered the capital, all difficulties were overcome by him, Wei Ling.
Even in the capital city, it was he who first led the Black Tiger Guards to break in, thus earning Emperor Longchang his current position.
If Emperor Longchang really knew what was best for him, he would not have come to cause trouble for him at this time.
During the two thousand miles, Wei Ling and his secret guards worked almost non-stop and finally intercepted the spy sent from the capital outside Fengshan Town.
Their whereabouts had long been known to the spies Wei Ling left in the capital, and even the physical characteristics of these people had been passed on to Wei Ling.
The current Wei Ling is no longer the Wei Ling who used to only know how to recite poems and compose essays in Dongdu.
After a night of fighting, although Wei Ling suffered some injuries, he still managed to successfully kill all the spies.
He did not use his true Qi, otherwise he would not have been injured at all when dealing with these people...
It was five days later when Su Jixiang saw Wei Ling.
He appeared in their room silently, with a solemn look but a smile on his face.
"I'm back." He looked at Su Jixiang who was sitting on the bed and sorting things, and smiled gently and firmly.
Su Jixiang was stunned.
"If you show up like this again, I'm really going to hit you!" Su Jixiang patted his chest, "I've been scared by you several times!"
Really, if a living person suddenly appeared in anyone’s room, they would probably be scared!
"I won't do that next time!" Wei Ling said, and then started coughing.
In order to hurry on the road these days, his cloak had been soaked with snow and he was freezing cold all over.
His cold... probably came back again.
Seeing that he was coughing violently, Su Jixiang quickly poured a cup of hot water and wanted to hand it to Wei Ling, but Wei Ling pulled it to his chest.
He held her waist tightly, and Su Jixiang could smell the blood on him.
He was used to wearing black clothes, so he couldn't see any traces of blood...but the bloody smell was unstoppable.
Su Jixiang was startled and quickly pushed Wei Ling away, "Are you injured?"
Wei Ling's face became worse and worse. He barely held on, then nodded and said, "Yes."
Then he leaned on Su Jixiang and put all his strength on Su Jixiang. "I know you want to scold me, but can you wait? I'm so cold now! Can you hug me?"
Su Jixiang...
She could only hug Wei Ling with her backhand.
His body was extremely cold, like a piece of ice.
"The injuries on your body..." Su Jixiang asked.
"The wound is not serious, it's just superficial injury, and it has been treated. It's just that it may have broken open due to the long days of traveling." Wei Ling said with his eyes closed.
He hugged Su Jixiang tightly, it felt so good!
He will no longer be alone.
There will be someone waiting for him at home, and someone will use their body temperature to warm him when he is cold!
If his parents were still alive in heaven, they would probably be happy for him.
"Good luck." He said slowly.
"Hmm?" Su Jixiang responded.
"You promised that when I come back this time, you will become my real wife." Wei Ling said slowly, "Does it still count?"
Su Jixiang...
"It's already this late, and you're still thinking about this?" She felt a little amused and wanted to pat Wei Ling on the back, but she didn't know where he was injured, so she didn't dare to do it.
"Of course I remember. This is a big deal!" Wei Ling said seriously. "You have to answer me seriously!"
"Okay, okay, okay!" Su Jixiang couldn't help but blushing, "Of course it counts! But don't think about it now. I'll go get you the medicine!"
She felt the coldness on Wei Ling's body and knew that he must have a cold again, so she spoke quickly.
Suddenly, she felt a weight on her shoulders again. Wei Ling had actually placed his entire weight on her shoulders...
"Someone come!" Su Jixiang felt a chill in his heart!
That’s pretty good!
This guy really fainted this time!
