Chapter 1425: Chapter 812: Luming Returns Triumphant, Reunion (Part 3)
"Now what I’m worried about is that the Emperor won’t actually dismiss me. Think about it, I risked my life to save him; surely he would be somewhat grateful, right? He definitely wouldn’t go through with dethroning me. I reckon my dream of becoming the Great General might just be daydreaming." Xie Qianyun was still somewhat melancholic.
Forget it, in this lifetime, how much truly goes according to one’s wishes?
This time being able to accompany her mother in the campaign against the Tartar army, she was already very content.
"But if..." Wu Huahao suddenly stammered.
The whole person became somewhat tense.
His face blushed as if it turned red.
"If the Emperor truly wants to reject you, wants to dethrone you, I could marry you." Wu Huahao summoned the courage and finally spoke out.
Xie Qianyun turned her eyes to look at Wu Huahao.
Wu Huahao felt awkward from Xie Qianyun’s gaze.
"Why are you looking at me like that? You’re so ugly, who would dare want you!" Wu Huahao exclaimed loudly, trying to cover his embarrassment.
"I’m ugly, but at least I’m not a cripple like you!" Xie Qianyun retorted back without reservation.
"I’m a cripple... but I still have hope for treatment! Besides, I haven’t injured any crucial parts." Wu Huahao’s face grew increasingly red, his voice got smaller, then suddenly shouted, "Besides, didn’t you previously say you would marry me?!"
"You think the Emperor’s woman, once he doesn’t want her, others can claim her!" Xie Qianyun rolled her eyes, "Throughout history, no one could have the women the Emperor rejected. How naive?!"
"I can plead to my mother, my mother is the Emperor’s own aunt, also the Supreme Emperor’s favorite sister, the elder princess of the Daxuan Kingdom. When she speaks, the Emperor wouldn’t completely ignore it either." Wu Huahao became somewhat excited.
"Don’t think about it." Xie Qianyun firmly rejected, "Even though our brotherly bond is deep and you’re loyal, I won’t let you be wronged in such matters. You should take advantage of this injury to return and under your mother’s arrangements, get married and have children."
"I..." Wu Huahao tried to say something.
"Achoo!" Xie Qianyun suddenly sneezed.
"Are you cold?" Wu Huahao asked nervously.
"Seems like it’s a bit cold." Xie Qianyun rubbed her small nose.
The sun was about to set at this moment.
In the desert region, the temperature difference between morning and evening is naturally large.
"Let’s go back." Xie Qianyun called out to Wu Huahao.
She had the guards wheel her back.
Wu Huahao just watched Xie Qianyun’s back silently murmuring, "I meant it, it’s true."
They both left one after the other.
After they left.
Three people emerged from behind a tent.
An Ning, Xie Ruotong, and Song Yanqing.
They were also walking in the camp, reaching the place where the sunset was the most beautiful.
Reflecting on their youthful past, they then saw Xie Qianyun and Wu Huahao arrive.
Naturally, they heard their conversation.
Xie Qianyun’s character was really great; with just a few words, she got Wu Huahao to perk up.
Despite her own ugly face scars, she didn’t give up on herself, instead remaining bright and positive.
How many people wouldn’t like such a girl?
Wu Huahao’s liking her is indeed expected.
"Song Yanqing." An Ning spoke.
"I am here."
"When we return, arrange a marriage for Wu Huahao."
"..." Song Yanqing was dumbfounded.
Wu Huahao wasn’t his son, why should he find him a marriage?
"Ruotong."
"I am here."
"When can Luming return?"
"From the latest battle report, we’ve completely conquered the Tatar’s stronghold; they have fled the Hebei region. If there are no accidents, they should return tomorrow. If everything goes smoothly, the Oasis is only five days from the Tatar base."
"Tell Luming not to delay."
"...Yes."
After An Ning gave the orders, she turned and left.
Song Yanqing and Xie Ruotong exchanged looks.
The Empress Dowager is afraid her future daughter-in-law will be snatched away?!
Indeed.
Song Yanqing quietly said, "Suddenly, I somewhat regret sending Qianyun into the palace."
Xie Ruotong turned to look at Song Yanqing.
"I think Wu Huahao is quite good too."
Xie Ruotong glared at Song Yanqing.
Then briskly chased after An Ning.
...
In the following few days.
Xie Qianyun went to find Wu Huahao every day, and the two would roam around the Oasis area in wheelchairs.
Their bodies were gradually recovering.
Another five days passed.
News came that Xiao Luming had won the battle and was returning.
Everyone went to welcome him.
Xie Qianyun and Wu Huahao did not go.
