Xie Ningxia's face suddenly froze when she heard Gu Li say this, "Master Gu, do you think I am that kind of person?"
Gu Li was at a loss when she heard Xie Ningxia ask this, "Then why don't you use it?"
"Really want to know the reason?"
Xie Ningxia saw some determination in Gu Li's eyes again, "Because I want to find an obedient person, preferably someone who loves money and is lustful. A person like Mr. Gu who has no desires and needs. What do you think I want?
Come and use you for me? If Mr. Gu betrays me one day, I will not be able to withstand it. But if Mr. Gu really wants to help me, just look for such people in the court, and it will be easy.
The kind of person who is satisfied.”
When Gu Li heard what Xie Ningxia said, she clenched her palms tightly, but Xie Ningxia didn't notice it because it was blocked by her sleeves.
Xie Ningxia saw that Gu Li was silent again, "If Mr. Gu doesn't want to help, just leave. After all... if someone sees you alone with me, it will be difficult for Mr. Gu to explain."
Xie Ningxia picked up a bunch of grapes on the table and popped one into her mouth. Before she could swallow it, she heard Gu Li say: "I will help the queen find such a person."
After saying that, Gu Li left. Xie Ningxia looked at Gu Li's leaving figure and sighed, "Gu Li is indeed a good helper."
"Then why don't you use it?"
Xie Ningxia turned to look at Huan'er, "Huan'er, do you think I'm still soft-hearted? Gu Li looked like he didn't like anyone at the beginning. I really wanted him to be used by me, but when he got to the point where he was really willing
But I couldn’t bear it anymore.”
"It seems to Yi Huan'er that the empress is too kind."
"Right, I think so too."
When Xie Ningxia and Huan'er returned to their tent, they saw the place was in a mess. Xie Ningxia hurried forward and grabbed a random person, "What's wrong? Why are you all in such a panic?"
"Returning to the Queen, Your Majesty was unfortunately attacked while hunting, and now you can't find Your Majesty anywhere."
Xie Ningxia heard that Lu Yu was missing, "Then why don't you look for him?"
"Your Majesty, Commander Feng has already led his troops to search. Now many ministers have been injured, and the palace doctor is already on the way."
Xie Ningxia walked into the tent. There were indeed many ministers inside who went hunting with Lu Yu today. Most of these ministers were hit by arrows. Based on the current situation, it seemed that Lu Yu's attack was planned by someone in advance.
Xie Ningxia looked at the group of injured people and said, "Huan'er, go get me the medicine for the injury. I'll go out and find it myself."
When Huan'er heard that Xie Ningxia was going to go out to search for her personally, she immediately panicked, "Your Majesty, your Majesty hasn't come back yet. If something happens to your Majesty again..."
Xie Ningxia saw Huan'er not moving, so she had to go get it herself. Xie Ningxia urgently took a few bottles of medicine and was about to leave. Seeing that Huan'er couldn't stop Xie Ningxia, she decided to go with Xie Ningxia, "Huan'er, I don't care if you go."
Come on, it will be safer for me to go alone."
Huan'er looked at Xie Ningxia with tears in her eyes, "Your Majesty said the same thing before, but Huan'er won't believe it this time. If Your Majesty doesn't let Huan'er go with you, then Your Majesty can't leave either."
When Xie Ningxia saw that Huan'er insisted on following her, she didn't say anything. She picked up her bag and entered the woods. Fortunately, there were still hunting tracks in the woods. Huan'er and Xie Ningxia followed the tracks and searched for them, but there were no clues.
The forest where they were hunting was indeed very large. Xie Ningxia and Huan'er arrived at the place where they were attacked at night. There were not only arrows but also blood stains on the surrounding trees. "My dear, look at the blood here, it seems to be dripping.
"
Xie Ningxia walked to Huan'er's side. The blood stains were indeed dripping. Xie Ningxia kept walking along the dripping blood stains, but not long after walking, she found that the blood stains were broken.
"Mother, why is the blood stain broken?"
Xie Ningxia picked up a branch and searched the surrounding environment. The terrain here was uneven, and it was possible for it to fall suddenly while walking.
Sure enough, Xie Ningxia found a suspected trace of someone slipping around. Xie Ningxia leaned down and looked down to see that it was a small cliff. "Huan'er, give me the rope in the bag, and I'll go down and take a look."
"Mother, it's too dangerous for you to go down in person. It's better for Huan'er to go down."
"No, you wait above. If something happens down there, I'll swing the rope for you to come down. If nothing happens, I'll come up."
Xie Ningxia carefully climbed down the cliff step by step. Perhaps because the land was relatively moist, there were indeed footprints here. Xie Ningxia took off the rope from her waist and shook it vigorously.
Xie Ningxia was a little worried when she saw Huan'er trembling on the cliff wall, "Huan'er, slow down, be sure to hold on to the rope, don't be afraid."
After Huan'er came down safely from above, Xie Ningxia and Huan'er walked along the footprints on the ground, and finally saw a cave not far away, with a faint light of fire in the cave.
Xie Ningxia hurriedly ran over, and sure enough, Lu Yu's queen and Gao Chen were inside. Xie Ningxia stood at the entrance of the cave and looked at Lu Yu who was sitting and Gao Chen who was lying down. Gao Chen should have been seriously injured.
Lu Yu looked up and saw Xie Ningxia standing at the entrance of the cave. He ran directly to Xie Ningxia and hugged her, "Ning'er, why are you here? Are you here to find me? Are you injured?"
Lu Yu let go of Xie Ningxia and checked. He was relieved when he saw that Xie Ningxia was not injured. He hugged her again and said, "It's fine if she's not hurt. It's fine if she's not hurt."
Xie Ningxia looked at Lu Yu in front of her and had an indescribable feeling. She seemed to really see the worry in Lu Yu's eyes. Xie Ningxia saw that Lu Yu's arm was injured. "Let me go first, and I will bandage it for you first."
