C104 She Was the First Person to Say Such Words to Him!

Gu Jun’an would have forgotten about this if she hadn’t brought it up.

Gu Jun’an stared at her and said, “You’ll have new fruits when you get back to the Imperial City.”

Lan Qingqian covered her mouth with her hands and looked forward to it. She was going to grow taller again.

She muttered to herself, “It would be great if I could eat one every day!”

Gu Jun’an turned around and wrote a letter to the Imperial City of the West Province. He told the people in the Imperial Residence to move the mark she had made down a little.

The border was like a stormy sky. It was sunny and sunny a few days ago, but it suddenly changed overnight.

Lan Qingqian heard the sound of horse hooves and the sound of people talking in the dream. It was so loud that she couldn’t breathe. She kept having nightmares.

She opened her eyes in a daze. She didn’t even remember to put on her shoes when she ran out of the tent.

She saw a large number of soldiers rushing in and out of the camp. Some of them were noisy, and some of them were covered in wounds. The air was filled with a faint smell of blood.

Lan Qingqian stood in the crowd and stared blankly until a pair of hands lifted her up.

A familiar smell entered her nose!

Lan Qingqian looked up and met his dark and cold eyes. “Old Prince Consort, where did you go?”

Gu Jun’an carried her into the tent. “I went to cut a pile of rotten cabbage. Why didn’t I put on my shoes?”

Lan Qingqian was put down and realized that his armor was covered in blood. It was stained everywhere.

She said anxiously, “My dear son-in-law, did you get cut? You’re bleeding.”

Gu Jun’an reached out to grab her clothes and pulled it over. “No, this isn’t my blood.”

Lan Qingqian looked up at him in disbelief.

Gu Jun’an took off his armor and shirt, revealing a silver shirt. He pulled her hand and touched her sleeve. “This is the Heavenly Silkworm Flexible Armor. It’s extremely tough. Even with your strength, you might not be able to pierce it.”

“Is it even stronger than the armor?” Lan Qingqian didn’t believe him.

Gu Jun’an took out a dagger. “Try it yourself.”

Lan Qingqian grabbed the sleeve and cut it twice, but she didn’t find any marks.

She looked curious and happy. “How magical. Since you can’t cut it, why do you still wear that ugly and heavy armor?”

“It’s to cover up your tracks! It’s a secret!” Gu Jun’an said in a low voice.

Lan Qingqian nodded her head seriously. “I’ll keep it a secret. I won’t tell anyone.”

Gu Jun’an had a Heavenly Silkworm Flexible Armor, but no one knew about it. He told her this secret because he wanted her to be at ease and because he knew she could keep it a secret.

“Did San Qi and the others not come back with you?” She seemed to see strangers outside the tent.

Gu Jun’an said in a low voice, “San Qi was injured. San Qi sent him to the doctor, so he didn’t come back. He was afraid that you would be scared if you saw blood!” San Qi was covered in blood. Although most of it wasn’t his, it was still terrifying.

He joked that he would come back tomorrow if she cried.

Lan Qingqian immediately ran to the big box in the corner and searched for a while. Finally, she found a small box.

“Old husband, you can give the medicine to Sanba. I secretly brought some medicine. Last time, my hand was cut, but it stopped bleeding.”

“When did you take it secretly?” She had kept the medicine bottles in her room.

Lan Qingqian said, “I hid it in the box when I went out. I can protect you with my strength, or I can apply the medicine to you when you are hurt. That way, you won’t hurt.”

Gu Jun’an looked at the little bean sprout under the candlelight.

She said, “I can protect you with my strength.”

She said, “If you are hurt, I can apply the medicine to you and stop you from hurting.”

She was the first person in the world to say that to him. She was afraid that he would be bullied and worried that he would hurt.

Gu Jun’an pulled her into his arms and patted her head. “Don’t worry. I said I would protect you. I won’t get hurt.”

Gu Jun’an didn’t find Lan Qingqian in the morning. He walked around a few times and finally found her in a tent next to the camp.

A man and a child were confronting each other.

Sanba looked at Lan Qingqian helplessly. Lan Qingqian stood in front of him with a pot of soup in her hand.

“Sanba, how can you not drink the chicken soup that I made after so much effort? How can you not drink the chicken soup?”

Sanba saw Gu Jun’an and immediately moved to his side. He said with a bitter face, “Your Highness, you are here. Please help me persuade the Ninth Prince. I have already drunk a pot of old duck soup and a pot of fish soup this morning. I really can’t drink anymore.”

He had run to the latrine three or four times. A few people he knew laughed at him when they saw him. That was why he ran to the latrine so frequently.

Lan Qingqian was very serious. “Grandma Zhou said that she left a lot of blood and had to drink all kinds of tonics to recover quickly. I didn’t even dare to drink the chicken that they caught this morning.” She felt wronged. She didn’t want Sanba to do that.

Gu Jun’an couldn’t bear to reject her kindness. “Sanba, drink more chicken soup!”

Sanba felt bitter. “Your Highness, do you have no bottom line? Do you have any humanity?”

He wasn’t the Ninth Princess. His stomach was like a bottomless pit. He ate at least four or five meals a day. If he didn’t restrain himself, he could eat a cow!

Gu Jun’an looked at him coldly. Sanba could only hold the pot and drink the soup. Lan Qingqian was happy. “Is it good?”

Her eyes were full of greed!

Sanba burped and said, “It’s good, it’s good. I have never drunk such a good chicken soup.”

He regretted it. He didn’t want to see any soup in the future.

He took a few steps and his stomach was full of water. He was shaking.

When he went to the latrine, it was difficult to walk.

The soldier next to him laughed, “Lord Sanba, are you pregnant? You are walking step by step. Are you afraid of scaring the child in your stomach?”

Then, there was laughter…

In the tent, Sanba rushed in with the letter, “Your Highness, there is good news. Those bastards from the Eastern Delay Country were beaten up by us last night. Today, they were taught a lesson by Canglan. I am afraid that they will lose over ten thousand people. Right now, the people from the Eastern Delay Country are sending some gifts over. They want to sow discord between Canglan and us so that Canglan will join hands with them.”

Gu Jun’an read the letter, “They have sent quite a lot of gifts. Did they send the letter of peace to the Canglan Imperial City?”

“No. I heard that they were stopped by He Dongzhi. They tore it all up. I think that they will come over to us if they can’t reach an agreement with Canglan.”

“Then let them come!”

Some debts couldn’t be owed for nothing. They should pay some interest.

In less than two days, there was an ambassador from the Eastern Delay Country.

The ambassador was the deputy general of the Eastern Delay Country, Guan Jun’an. Gu Jun’an had met him before. He had been guarding the border of the Eastern Delay Country for many years. He had fought with Gu Jun’an twice before.

“People say that you should treat them differently after three years. Your Highness, you have not seen me for two years. You are almost forgetting me.”

Gu Jun’an’s face was cold. He didn’t say anything. Guan Jun’an didn’t get angry. He just sat down.

“Actually, I came to find Your Highness to reminisce about old times.”
