Because Wang Xiaohai has experienced despair and knows what darkness is, he cherishes his current life very much, is very grateful to Gu Xi, and is even more loyal.

Gu Xi listened to him talking about Nian Ci Tang, and recalled the betrayal by Nian Ci Tang's children in the dream, and felt complicated for a moment.

Wang Xiaohai didn't notice the difference in her mood, and talked about other things, such as spring plowing.

When Gu Xi heard this, she became energetic and wanted to change into coarse clothes and go to work in the fields.

When she came to the farm before, Gu Xi just flipped through the account books, walked around the farmland, and wandered around the back hills, but she didn't know how to do the farm work herself.

But this time when she came here, Gu Xi had a learning attitude. If she returned to her biological parents in the future, she might have to do farm work, so she couldn't be ignorant.

It was the time for spring plowing. Gu Xi knew that everyone was sowing spring wheat, so he went to work with great interest.

Xiazhi and the others held her tightly and refused to let her go to the ground. Wang Xiaohai was even more frightened and begged with sorrow on his face.

"Master, please don't embarrass us little ones. If you go to sow seeds, those farmers won't know how to work."

Gu Xi let out a long sigh, retreated to the next best thing, let Qiuzhi accompany him, and went for a walk in the back mountain instead.

She found that she had accepted her identity as a farm girl well, but the people around her were not.

-

Since spring had just begun, there were no wild fruits to pick at this time, at most there were only half-open wild flowers, so Gu Xi lost interest after walking for a while.

When she was about to go back, her eyes narrowed and she found a few drops of blood that had turned dark red in the grass.

Because the grass was not very dense yet and the traces were quite obvious, Gu Xi walked forward about two hundred meters and found an injured man behind a big tree.

"Miss, he must have fainted." Qiuzhi looked at the man in black lying on the ground, suppressed his voice, and said cautiously.

Gu Xi asked Qiuzhi to stand one meter away, and she stepped forward to check on the man.

She has skills and can protect herself even if there is an accident.

When I got closer, I noticed that there was a sword beside the man.

When Gu Xi saw the sword, she couldn't help being shocked. She stretched out her hand to turn the man over and quickly took off his mask.

It’s really him!

Gu Xi touched the man's handsome face several times to make sure it was real and he was not wearing any disguise mask.

She picked up the sword and looked at it again and again, and was sure that it was the Canglan Sword and not a fake.

This handsome face like a god coming down from the earth, and this sword, which is the third best in the world, have already made the identity of the man in front of him very clear.

Qiuzhi looked at her young lady’s movements with confusion.

"Miss, do you know him? I look familiar to you, but I can't remember where I saw him."

Gu Xi looked very complicated and said, "He is Prince Ning."

When Qiuzhi heard this, his eyes widened in surprise, and he was a little confused for a moment.

"No wonder, after I have seen the portrait of the prince, I think he is more handsome in person. No, what I want to say is, why is he here?"

This is King Ning! The God of War! The mythical existence of Qin!

However, the other party is now being charged with collaborating with the enemy and treason!

It is said that two months ago, Prince Ning colluded with Beiyan and deliberately ambushed the imperial court during the battle of Fengshen Mountain and harmed 100,000 soldiers!

I also heard that the emperor ordered to arrest King Ning, but King Ning escaped and came to the capital. Now the capital is full of officers and soldiers arresting King Ning.

I never expected that Prince Ning would be seriously injured and unconscious here!

"Miss, do we want to save him?" Qiuzhi asked again.

Gu Xi didn't immediately think about whether to save him or not. What she thought was, if she met Prince Ning by chance, could it be that the system was playing tricks on her?

Are you afraid that she is too naive, so you force her to stand up and do things?

Gu Xi called up the system to check, and sure enough he saw that the task had been updated.

[Main mission: Rescue Prince Ning and help him escape pursuit]

[Task reward: a mysterious gift package

When you complete the task, you will naturally know what it is]

[Task background: The idol man you think about day and night suddenly appears in front of you. Are you so excited that you want to cry?

But you have to know that such happiness comes at a price!

Because rescuing him means that you are going against the emperor and risk confiscating your family and annihilating your clan.

Are you afraid? If so, it's not too late to throw him here now. He won't die anyway, which means life is worse than death...]

Gu Xi glanced at the mission background, suppressed her doubts, and then looked at the reward. She was inevitably curious and excited about what this mysterious gift package was.

However, no matter how tempted she was, Gu Xi didn’t want to pick up Prince Ning!

Because if you are saved, it means you are in big trouble and your life is in danger!

"Miss, should we save him?"

Qiuzhi saw that the young lady had been staring at Prince Ning, her face changing, so she could only ask again.

"Help." Gu Xi sighed.

After all, this is Prince Ning, the God of War whom she has always admired. She has been guarding the border and fighting bloody battles for so many years. If she doesn't even save him, then she will lose her basic conscience as a human being.

Gu Xi didn't want to overdo it, become hateful, and become the person she despised in the past.

You don’t have to have dreams, but you have to have a conscience and a bottom line.

"Qiuzhi, you go ahead and clear the place. If you encounter Xia Zhi and Wang Xiaohai, ask them to help cover up. We will try to avoid other people and take him back to my room quietly."

With that said, Gu Xi knelt down, took Prince Ning's arm and put it on his shoulders, trying to carry him on his back.

"Miss, it's better for this slave to carry the burden. Prince Ning is a man. How can you have close contact with him? If Master Lu knows..."

Qiuzhi quickly stopped him.

The Crown Prince Lu she refers to is Lu Heng, the Crown Prince of Zhenguo Palace. The two were engaged a year ago and plan to get married by the end of the year after Gu Xi gets her hairpin.

"First of all, Lu Heng won't know. Furthermore, if you talk about Prince Ning and Lu Heng together, why do I feel that you are humiliating Prince Ning again? Don't say that again in the future."

Gu Xi interrupted Qiuzhi and insisted on carrying Prince Ning on his back.

In fact, she has been very strong since she was a child, and it was easy to carry Prince Ning on her back.

"..." Qiuzhi.

In the past, I only knew that the young lady admired and admired Prince Ning very much, but the young lady had never stepped on Prince Lu’s face like this.

Gu Xi carried Prince Ning on her back, and the two of them were close to each other. Gu Xi suddenly felt something strange.

She seemed to find it...comfortable to be so close to Prince Ning.

Gu Xi was startled by this thought and found it unbelievable. She had no romantic feelings for Prince Ning, so how could she have such feelings?

But then the pungent and unpleasant smell of blood from Prince Ning's body came to her senses.

Gu Xi couldn't think too much, Prince Ning was too seriously injured.

"Why are you still standing there? Pick up the sword and go back quickly. He needs treatment." Gu Xi urged Qiuzhi.

Qiuzhi quickly came to her senses and saw her young lady carrying Prince Ning on her back, and Prince Ning's tall figure almost completely covered her weak figure.

However, she still walked as fast as flying, without any effort.

"..." Qiuzhi.
