Forced to die for his loyalty, he was reborn in the arms of the cold and cruel regent!

The boy's eyes seemed unusually bright in the dark night.

Dele was stunned for a moment, then shouted in astonishment: "Young Master, what are you doing? Have you forgotten our common goal? We want to return to the Northern Desert and rebuild our homeland, right?"

Luo Chuan's eyes were firm. He looked at Dele with unquestionable determination in his voice.

"I know our goal, but I can't sacrifice innocent people for this goal. The princess is my benefactor, I can't treat her like this."

Dele looked at Luochuan with a trace of struggle in his eyes. He obviously did not expect that Luochuan would be so determined.

However, he did not back down. He looked at Luo Chuan with a flash of determination in his eyes: "Young Master, are you going to betray us?"

When Luo Chuan heard this, a trace of pain flashed in his eyes, but he did not back down. He looked at Dele with determination in his voice.

"We can take our time. I know I don't want to go back to the grassland, and I don't let you take the princess away. You may think that I am betrayed, but I can't go against my conscience. I can't watch innocent people get hurt, and I can't let my benefactor get hurt."

When Dele heard this, a trace of struggle flashed in his eyes.

This is their young master, their appeal, and he cannot be damaged in the slightest, otherwise everything will come to nothing.

Luo Chuan turned around and negotiated with Qi Suian: "If we return the princess, I hope you can help us return to Beimo as you said before."

"I will never go back on my word." Qi Sui'an nodded.

At that moment, Luochuan seemed like a different person.

He nodded slightly, his tone carrying an unquestionable command.

"Well, if you still recognize me as your young master, then let me go."

"Master, you can't do this." Dele was still struggling and persisting.

"We can't take her away, so why bother? When it comes to cooperation, peace is the most important thing." Luo Chuan looked at him: "Besides, in front of so many people, do you want to disobey me?"

Dele threw away the knife, clenched his right fist and placed it on his chest. Although his tone was full of dissatisfaction, he still agreed with his decision.

"I dare not disobey."

"Then let her go." Luo Chuan stepped forward anxiously.

Dele had no choice but to let go.

Shen Mengyao slipped off the horse weakly, and Luochuan hurried forward and caught her steadily.

At this moment, Shen Mengyao had a kind of fragile and torn beauty, her face was slightly pale due to blood loss. When she lifted her hair, her fair face was stained with some scarlet blood. The contrast between red and white was particularly vivid.

Luo Chuan's hands were trembling slightly. He wanted to reach out and touch her, but he didn't dare.

"Princess, are you okay?"

Shen Mengyao forced out a weak and feeble smile.

"I'm fine."

Luo Chuan breathed a sigh of relief and handled it carefully as if he was holding a priceless treasure.

"I'll take you back, you'll be fine soon."

He held her in his arms and slowly walked up the hillside.

The road was very long, taking hundreds of steps, but in his eyes it was so short, so short that it seemed to be over in the blink of an eye.

Looking at the crowd so close, he felt a little reluctant, but he also understood that this might be the last time he would see Shen Mengyao, at least here before the Northern Desert fell into turmoil.

Although I feel a little reluctant, I understand that once everything is exposed, the two of them will have separate destinies, nothing else.

When he was ten steps away from Qi Suian, he stopped and lowered his head.

"Actually, Luochuan is not my real name. As for my name, I won't tell you. I hope that in the future, you can hear my name spread all over the Northern Desert, instead of being unknown and disappearing in the rolling dust of history."

Shen Mengyao opened her lips. She had so much to say, but for a moment, she didn't know where to start.

Thousands of words were reduced to just one sentence: "Take care, see you again if we are lucky."

Luo Chuan nodded, handed her to Queyue, and then looked at Qi Suian.

"I've already returned the people to you. Can I take these people with me? And can we have a good talk about the things you mentioned?"

Qi Suian glanced at him seriously.

He had seen him once when the eldest princess fell into the river. At that time he was just a young boy, but not long after, he had grown into a calm and ruthless man.

The boy grew up in a flash.

"Of course, a gentleman's words are hard to follow."

"Before dawn tomorrow, I hope to leave Fuxian Town, the last checkpoint of the capital. Time is short, so let's talk now." Luo Chuan made a gesture of invitation: "There is a tea stand there."

Qi Sui'an nodded and walked over first.

"Dele, you follow me too." Luo Chuan followed and called Dele.

This night is destined to be restless.

Queyue felt so distressed when she saw the not-so-shallow wound on Shen Mengyao's neck.

"Princess, does it hurt?"

"It will definitely hurt, but it doesn't matter. It will go away after the pain is over." Shen Mengyao smiled weakly.

Queyue immediately helped her onto the carriage and carefully checked her injuries.

After slowly washing away the blood, she discovered a long wound on Shen Mengyao's neck and a cut on the palm of her hand by the hairpin. The wound looked horrifying.

"Princess, I'm going to apply medicine for you. It may be a little painful, so please bear with it for now." Queyue bit her lip, spoke carefully, and took out a bottle of medicine.

Shen Mengyao nodded.

Although she had prepared herself mentally, when the powder was sprinkled on her wound, the heart-wrenching pain still made her scream out.

The whistling sound was particularly clear in the dense forest. Qi Suian, who was talking, glanced in his direction with worry in his eyes.

Luochuan picked up the ceramic teacup on the table. The large bowl of coarse tea with salt in it was not tasty, but it was just enough to quench one's thirst.

"Your Highness was so determined to sacrifice the princess just now, will you feel distressed now because of the princess's screams?"

"Of course I feel bad, but I have to live up to my status. As the regent of Daqi, I am second only to the emperor and above everyone else. I cannot just do things based on my likes and dislikes. I have to live up to the people."

Qi Sui'an explained calmly.

There was even more admiration in Luochuan's eyes.

"Your Highness's words really enlightened me, but what we just talked about is only your one-sided opinion. If your emperor disagrees, then it would be a waste of effort and we would gain nothing."

Qi Sui'an laughed, "The Northern Desert has been in chaos for so long, and our people on the border have been deeply troubled by it. If a great leader can unify it, and the two countries sign a non-aggression agreement, bringing peace to the people on the border, such an achievement that will be recorded in history books, no one, from the king to the subjects, will be willing to refuse it."
