Ruan Xiaonuan said indignantly, "This dog official!"

Gu Junxiu stroked her back, and helped her catch her breath. He said gently, "When we get the evidence, we will destroy them."

He finally understood why there weren't any refugees in the city. If they were to give out silver taels for disaster relief, they would not even know where the refugees were now.

"I have to thank Master Lu for this." Gu Junxiu said.

"Why do you say that?" Ruan Xiaonuan asked curiously.

"I only asked them to arrange the refugees. As for how exactly, I didn't participate. It must be because Master Lu gathered all of the victims outside the city at this place, giving them a temporary place to settle down. " Gu Junxiu explained in detail.

"I knew that Master Lu would definitely be a good official that was hard to come by." She praised him sincerely.

However, when Gu Junxiu saw her brazenly praise others, he was not happy at the time, "You want to praise other men in front of me?"

"He was good to begin with, why can't you praise him?" Ruan Xiaonuan pretended not to understand what he meant and asked suspiciously.

Gu Junxiu rolled over in jealousy, his powerful arm grabbing tightly onto her waist, as he threatened, "If you continue praising other men, I'll give you a punishment."

"What punishment?" Ruan Xiaonuan asked recklessly.

"You want to know?" He did not know that he had been played by someone.

When Gu Junxiu said this, he could no longer hold back his laughter. Only then did he cover his stomach as he said in an intermittent manner, "You are usually so smart, why are you so stupid now?"

Only then did he understand. He wrapped her small hand around his own and said lovingly, "I'll deal with you when I get back."

Ruan Xiaonuan shuddered, she immediately stopped laughing and said softly: "I was just joking, don't take it as the truth."

Gu Junxiu allowed her to beg for forgiveness along the way, and held her hand without turning back to look at her. It was just that his lips that had been cut slightly lifted up, looking like he was in a great mood.

The way they chatted and laughed into the eyes of a woman not too far away. Her eyes were filled with disbelief. Ruan Xiaonuan and the others approached her without knowing, but she was still explaining. Suddenly, a small voice called out, "Your Majesty!"

She turned her head and saw a strange, familiar face. He asked in disbelief, "Cousin?"

Liu Yingxue nodded, the tattered clothes on her body did not cover her arrogance. However, her eyes were not as sharp as before, and when she looked at Ruan Xiaonuan, he did not look down on him.

When she first arrived in this world, the person she saw the most was her cousin. Although at that time she was the emperor of the Ling Yue Kingdom, her authority was held by this ambitious cousin of hers and at the same time, the Regent of the Ling Yue Kingdom. She still remembered the undisguised dislike in her eyes every time she saw her.

But in less than two days, the Ling Yue Kingdom had been breached by Gu Junxiu and she had been staying in the Xiyue Kingdom ever since. As for this cousin who was still not very familiar with her, he thought that she must be dead. He did not expect to see her today.

"Who is this?" Gu Junxiu heard from their conversation that the two seemed to know each other.

When Liu Yingxue saw him, a flash of hatred passed through her eyes, but she quickly hid it. Ruan Xiaonuan did not know how to explain, and could only say, "This is my cousin."

Who knew that when Gu Junxiu heard these words, he would directly place the crying sword on Liu Yingxue's neck, and asked coldly: "You are Regent?"

Ruan Xiaonuan watched the scene unfold in a daze, before she could do anything else. Hearing the surrounding refugees pointing their swords at her, she quickly said, "Ah Xiu, put down your sword. Look at her now, what can she do?"

It was unknown if it was on purpose or because of something else, but she had fainted at the right moment in the arms of the Ruan Xiaonuan who was closest to her. She held her up with some difficulty. He said to Gu Junxiu, "Since she's already like this, I can't possibly leave her here without doing anything." After saying that, she and Mo Yan supported Liu Yingxue and walked in the direction of the carriage.

Gu Junxiu helplessly looked at her strenuous back, gave Xiao Qi a look, and then quickly chased after the three of them. When Ruan Xiaonuan heard the footsteps behind him, she faintly smiled. After putting Liu Yingxue down, she grabbed his arm and said, "I knew you definitely wouldn't have the heart to let a weak girl be here alone."

She was only concerned with talking with Gu Junxiu, so she didn't notice a strange smile on the face of the originally unconscious Liu Yingxue. After that, she quickly closed her eyes and could only feel her weak breathing.

Ruan Xiaonuan didn't doubt the truth of her unconsciousness in the slightest. She turned around and said to Gu Junxiu, "Although she was previously a Regent, she had always had a serious illness and her body was very weak. Since you took me away, she must have been living in many places, and it's not easy to live to this day. Even if she wanted to do something, she wouldn't be able to. "

It took her a long time to think of the word "disease." At first she wanted to say tuberculosis, but then she remembered that they didn't understand, and she remembered the common word.

However, in Gu Junxiu's heart, he did not think that Liu Yingxue was as weak as she looked on the outside. If it really was like this, then it was impossible for her to have survived the destruction of the Ling Yue Nation until now.

"Mo Yan, go and get a doctor." After Ruan Xiaonuan returned to the manor, she immediately ordered. Fortunately, the room that Ren Deming had found at that time was not small, and there were still a lot of empty rooms.

Gu Junxiu saw that she was busy with work and the sky was about to turn dark, so he hurriedly left. When Ruan Xiaonuan came back to her senses, he had already left. When Mo Yan talked to her, she only nodded slightly, not minding because she knew where he went.

"Lady, the Lady Liu you brought back has awoken." Mo Yan said softly.

When Ruan Xiaonuan went in, Liu Yingxue had already sat up from the bed. When she saw her come in, he weakly glanced at her. She said weakly, "Cousin, I have something to say to you."

"You can leave first." How could Ruan Xiaonuan not understand her meaning? When Mo Yan was about to leave, he affectionately closed the door. Only when there were only the two of them left in the room, did he ask, "What do you have to tell me?"

"Why are you in Xiyue Kingdom? You're still at Gu Junxiu's side. Could you have forgotten how our country was exterminated back then? " Liu Yingxue s every word was an accusation, as if she was some extremely sinful person.

Ruan Xiaonuan secretly rolled her eyes. Even after such a long time had passed, her temper had still not changed, and she still looked like she would lecture at any time. The situation was different now, and she didn't have to be as careful as before.
