Emperor Ming's gentle face darkened and he frowned. If something happened to Li'er, no one would be able to make the Silver Moon Blade, and there would be chaos. It wasn't long before Emperor Ming calmed down.

"Commander Lin, go down and look for him as soon as possible. I want to see him alive or dead... or his body."

"Also, don't let anyone know what happened today. If anyone asks, just say that the princess has returned to the palace. Find out what happened to the man in black and those arrows."

Lin Yong's face was serious: "Yes, I will go right away."

After everyone left, the Queen sighed and said, "Your Majesty, this must be a conspiracy. There must be a spy around you. Otherwise, Your Majesty went to the cliff on a whim. How could those people know about it?"

"It just so happened that the arrows were shot at that time. If Li'er hadn't thrown His Majesty out, His Majesty would have met with an accident. Li'er..."

As he spoke, he began to sob softly.

Emperor Ming was also very upset. He reached out his hand and patted her gently, comforting her: "Don't be sad, Queen. I believe that Li'er is a lucky person and will be fine."

The voice was stern: "Once the spy is found out, I will exterminate all his clans."

The queen prayed silently in her heart, hoping that nothing would happen.

In the cave under the cliff

After waking up, Jiang Li went out to explore the way, but he was a little worried about leaving him alone in the cave. What if there were wild beasts? After much hesitation, he gave up.

It would be safer to wait until he is better and then explore the way together.

Mo Yuan glanced at the cave entrance and said softly, "Princess, why don't you put up some disguises at the entrance? I think the men in black have a careful plan this time, and I'm afraid they won't give up so easily."

"Every aspect must have been taken into consideration. This cave is too close to where we fell. If there is someone lying in ambush at the bottom of the cliff and intends to find us, we will be easily discovered."

Jiang Li's heart skipped a beat, his face turned even worse, and he stammered, "No, I can't do that. It's so cruel. Okay, I'll do it right away."

"Stay still and don't wander around."

"Okay, I'll wait for the princess to come back."

"Good boy~~"

Mo Yuan's mouth twitched as he watched her walk out. He moved his body and began to regulate his breathing to heal his internal injuries.

After Jiang Li went out, he first went to the place where the two people fell, smoothed out the traces, and collected all the broken tree trunks into the space to burn as firewood to make sure that no traces were left.

Vines were pulled to camouflage the entrance of the cave, so it would not be easily discovered unless you looked closely.

She turned back to the cave and started to cook rice porridge. The faint aroma of rice spread in the cave. Mo Yuan leaned against the wall of the cave, watching her busying herself with fixed eyes.

"Princess, can you cook?"

Jiang Li nodded. When she was in college in her previous life, she would work part-time during the winter and summer vacations and cooked for herself, which saved money and was healthy. In addition, through various short videos, she could learn a lot as long as she wanted to learn.

Her cooking skills were pretty good, but it was a pity that everything was ruined later when zombies appeared. What's even more ridiculous is that the disaster was caused by humans themselves.

"Yes, but it's not as delicious as the one made by the royal chef."

Mo Yuan's lips curled slightly, his eyes carrying some deep meaning: "Well, the princess has lost her memory, but she still knows so many things, which is already amazing."

Jiang Li's hands froze, his eyes a little vague: "This... is just something I made casually, it's nothing, don't be disgusted, General, it's OK if my cooking is not delicious."

"No, when I was fighting, sometimes the fighting was intense and I didn't eat for several days. It was normal. My stomach has always been not very good, but since I drank the princess's blood, I haven't felt any pain for a long time."

"Well, that's right. My blood is very useful, but it's not enough to drink."

"Puchi, princess, you must be more careful in the future, lest you be tricked or deceived. There are still many bad people in this world, and not everyone can be as innocent as you."

Jiang Li raised his eyebrows: "Major General, you are praising me."

"That's great. People always said I was stupid and rarely praised me. But you don't have to worry. I'm not that smart, but my intuition is very accurate. That's why I don't trust people so easily."

A smile flashed in Mo Yuan's eyes, and his brows softened.

"Major General, who is the smartest person in your family? They are the ones who are more cunning and don't suffer any setbacks easily."

"...That should be my elder brother, with a face as white as jade and a heart as black as ink."

Jiang Li nodded. She understood what this meant. It meant that the eldest son was a black sesame filling, a sinister person. Such people usually protect their shortcomings. If she became one of his people, wouldn't she be able to get the protection of his brain?

It’s okay if you’re not smart, learning to curry favor with others is also a skill.

"Young General, is it that the eldest son is only kind to his family and calculating towards outsiders? I also want a brother like this. Is there any way?"

Mo Yuan was silent for a while, and said with a smile: "Princess, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is your brother. If he knew that you wanted to acknowledge me as your brother, he would be angry."

Jiang Li waved his hand and said seriously: "I thought about it, and there is actually a way to have the best of both worlds. It can make the Crown Prince not angry, and the eldest son's smart brain can give me advice in the future."

"That's right. It requires the Major General to make a small sacrifice."

"Hmm? What does that mean?"

Jiang Li walked up to him, knelt on one knee on the ground, and held his face: "General, what do you think of me? Are you a little moved? Otherwise, let's live together."

"Look, I am a princess with a decent status. If you marry me, even if the emperor is still wary of you, he won't kill all your clans. That would mean he would be killed as well."

"Or, think about it, I really like the Mo family."

Mo Yuan's mind went blank after hearing this. After coming to his senses, he murmured, "Princess, are you serious? This kind of thing cannot be taken lightly."

Jiang Li nodded and moved closer, until their noses were almost touching.

"Well, it's more real than gold. Look, I'm actually not bad looking and have a good figure. Why don't you try it?"

In the last days, many people who fall in love with each other will have sex right away. She has never liked anyone, and it is rare that she finds someone she likes here, so why should she be reserved? If someone else snatches him away, she won’t even have tears to cry.

Mo Yuan's mind exploded, his face flushed, and his expression became nervous: "Princess, you can't say such things. I will pretend that I have never heard of it. Don't say it again in the future."

When Jiang Li heard this, she thought for a while and felt that she was rejected. Woohoo, this was the first time she confessed her love in this life, how could she be rejected?

Her eyes suddenly turned red, and she looked like she was about to cry.

"Mo Yuan, you don't like me. Why? What's wrong with me? I admit that I'm not as gentle as other women, but I can fight and protect you."

"If you can be more open-minded, I can accompany you to the battlefield. That's great. Okay, I admit it. Actually, wanting your brother to be my brother is just an excuse. My real target is you."

"I covet you, that's the truth."
