Resisting the Wind and Splendor

Chapter 367 When they're around, I never really notice them.

"Are you worried about him?" Huo Qing stared at her.

Chu Yueli bit her lip, not wanting to admit it.

But in front of the three aunts, she still blushed and nodded.

She was genuinely worried.

Without water and food, they wouldn't last more than a few days.

It had taken her two days to travel from the capital.

Ning Anran smiled and said, "Our little Ali is really calm. He's worried to death inside, but he still looks so calm and has to direct the soldiers to defend Hengxian City."

"If I'm not mistaken, when rebels really do come to Hengxian City tonight, Lei Ting will also return with his army, right?"

They never even considered rescuing Prince Mo; after all, protecting the unarmed civilians was more important to the soldiers.

As for the prince, even if everyone was nervous and worried, they could not abandon the people to save him.

This is what soldiers are like!

Soldiers are there to protect the people.

Chu Yueli nodded.

No wonder Mother admired Ning Anran so much before; she was indeed a formidable general who could understand military intelligence at a glance.

"Since you're worried, then let your third aunt accompany you to Xishan to find Mo'er."

"Aunt Anran..." Chu Yueli exclaimed in surprise, "But, the people of Hengxian County..."

“With your second aunt and me here, let’s see who dares to offend us!” An Ningran said in a deep voice.

Miao Yucui also laughed and said, "That's right, don't underestimate your second aunt. With a heavy bow, she can kill several people in a row."

Miao Yucui raised the bow in her hand.

Chu Yueli could tell at a glance that this bow was quite heavy, and its range was farther than she could have imagined.

She had heard her mother say that this bow could shoot five hundred paces away and was incredibly powerful.

"Don't worry, with Sister-in-law Anran and Second Sister-in-law here, Hengxian City will definitely be safe. Besides, Leiting will be back soon, and the people of Hengxian City will be very safe."

Huo Qing patted Chu Yueli on the shoulder: "If you don't leave, it means you don't trust your second aunt and Aunt Anran. That's quite bold of you!"

"Ah Li wouldn't dare!" How could she not believe them?

Chu Yueli took a deep breath, and the gloom in her eyes finally disappeared.

"Then, aunties, I'm leaving the people of Hengxian City in your care!" She was going to find Lu Beimo!

"move!"

"Take care!" Huo Qing glanced at Ning Anran and Miao Yucui.

Although she admired their abilities.

However, the battlefield is an extremely dangerous place, and even if one's side is certain of victory, casualties are inevitable.

Every separation could be the last time we meet.

In war, only those in power can truly win.

"Take care." Ning Anran and Miao Yucui also gave Huo Qing a deep look.

Although they hadn't spent much time together, after the autumn hunt, they had grown to appreciate each other and had become a true family.

Huo Qing went out first, and Chu Yueli took off her armor, changed into a light and comfortable outfit, said goodbye to her two aunts, and left as well.

The sky had become completely dark.

"They're nearby." When Chu Yueli and Huo Qing left the city, they could clearly feel a chilling aura approaching.

"Don't worry, trust your two aunts. They are capable enough to protect the people of Hengxian County," Huo Qing comforted her.

"Mm." Chu Yueli nodded, spurring her horse on. "Third Aunt, I know this place well, come with me!"

Some feelings are not fully appreciated when someone is around, but when they are not around, their voice and smile will always linger in your mind.

Bei Mo, wait for me!

She looked up at the sky.

The sky was dark and the night grew increasingly cold.
