"How is His Highness's condition?"
In the eastern army's camp, a middle-aged general was walking towards the main tent. Several officers followed him, one of them said: "His Highness's injury should not be serious, but the prey that should have been in his hands ran away for no reason, His Highness's mood is very bad now. General Ma, I think you should go and provoke His Highness's bad luck at this time. "
"Do you think I want to do that? But there is no other way, King Ji Wu's adopted son Hong Lie is about to arrive, I have to inform His Highness to prepare. "
As they spoke, the main tent was in sight, and a few doctors came out of the tent, one of them was holding a wooden bucket, the water in the bucket had turned into blood, the other was holding a blood-stained towel, it seemed that Ping Xi Wang's injury was not light.
General Ma frowned and said loudly: "Ma Yuan greets His Highness."
Ping Xi Wang said in the tent: "Come in."
His voice sounded slightly weak, General Ma hurriedly opened the tent and entered, the tent was filled with the fragrance of medicine. Ping Xi Wang sat on the big seat, picked up a small incense burner and took a breath, and asked: "What's the matter?"
General Ma knelt down and said: "Reporting to His Highness, I just received an urgent report. King Ji Wu's son Hong Lie is coming with a group of troops, saying that we have not attacked for a long time, so he sent Hong Lie to help our army. "
"Bastard!" Ping Xi Wang clenched his five fingers and the incense burner exploded in his hand. He suddenly stood up and said: "That old thing King Ji Wu, can't help but want to interfere with me?"
General Ma hurriedly said: "His Highness, please calm down. That Hong Lie is the adopted son of King Ji Wu, his combat power is not weak. King Ji Wu has always been arrogant, and this Hong Lie has also been raised to have the same temperament. Since King Ji Wu sent him over, why don't we push the boat with the current and let King Ji Wu's troops fight for us. With Hong Lie's temperament, as long as he is stimulated a little, there is no reason for him to refuse. Just let him fight with the experts of the barbarians, if both sides suffer, wouldn't that be a good thing? "
Ping Xi Wang frowned. Normally, she would have cursed Ma Yuan half to death. However, he had fought with Angeloni last night, and the other party's reckless fighting style left him with lingering fear. At this time, Ma Yuan's proposal was quite to his liking. After walking back and forth for a few steps, Ping Xi Wang nodded and said, "Alright, I am a little injured and need a few days to recuperate. Let King Ji Wu's people take the lead for this King. I want to see just how capable that Hong Lie is. I'm just afraid that he won't be able to gain face for the Extreme Martial King, and instead, he'll give that old thing a face full of dust. "
Ma Yuan immediately smiled and said, "If that's the case, we can also break the prestige of the Martial King."
"Let's do that."
Thus, the matter was settled.
Dawn Castle.
"… That's what happened."
Inside the study room, after listening to the report of a Dark Blade, Edward nodded and said, "I didn't expect this Annie to have this kind of fighting strength, to actually block Ping Xiwang. If she's willing to help, then our next battle will be much easier. "
"Where is she now?"
"On the Bauhinia Collar, Lord Orlando is also recuperating there."
Edward stood up and said, "The Bauhinia Collar will become the frontline battlefield next. I was going to go there as well, but now it's just right. Go prepare, I'll go to the Bauhinia Collar now. No matter what, I have to convince Annie. "
Even so, Edward knew that it wouldn't be that easy to convince an expert with a combat strength comparable to the Ten Saints. Even if Annie agreed, the conditions she offered would definitely be harsh. However, at this time, to be able to rope in an expert with the strength of a Ten Saints, any condition was worth it.
A moment later, a convoy was ready.
When Edward walked out of the City Lord's Mansion and was about to get on the carriage, he was stopped by someone. It was Ruo La. She had brought two maids over. Edward waved his hand and told the people beside him to retreat. Ruo La said, "Count, I heard that something happened to Orlando?"
"Don't worry, Lord Orlando only suffered some minor injuries. It's nothing serious." Edward smiled.
Ruo La nodded and said, "I just received the news. I heard that a woman named Annie saved him?"
"Yes, I'm going to the Bauhinia Collar to meet this Miss Annie. If we can get her help, it will be advantageous for us in the upcoming war. "
"No, what I care about is. Why didn't the Count send someone to rescue Orlando, but an outsider? "Ruo La said in a deep voice.
Edward looked at her and said softly, "Lady Jorah, this accusation is too harsh. Last night, the Coiling Dragon Empire's pursuit of Lord Orlando was very secretive. By the time I received the news, Miss Annie had already rescued Lord Orlando. In fact, I'm also very curious about how Miss Annie found out about Lord Orlando. This time, I'm going to solve this mystery. "
These words were half-true and half-false, and Ruo La couldn't find any flaws. He immediately said, "Then please tell me, if it weren't for Miss Annie, would the count still have sent someone to rescue Orlando?"
Edward smiled and said, "Isn't that obvious? Whether it's your husband or the son of the Marquis of Iron Spear, no matter which identity it is, it's worth it for me to do my best to rescue Lord Orlando. Lady Ruola, please believe me. Although I'm not very upright, I know that there are some things I have to do. "
Ruo La nodded, "Alright, I believe you. Sorry to disturb you, Count. "
"What are you talking about? It's more important to untie the knot in your heart than anything else."
After saying that, Edward got on the carriage.
As the Horse Team went further away, Ruo La's expression was extremely gloomy. A maid beside her said, "Madam, what's wrong?"
"I can't believe that man." Jorah shook her head and said, "He's different from Allen. There are too many secrets in his eyes. He's a man who frightens me."
"So?"
"I have to send a message to the Iron Spear Collar, using our channels."
In the carriage, Edward opened the curtains and a Dark Blade rode his horse to the side. Edward said, "Inform our men to seal off all news channels and pay special attention to the news of the Iron Spear Collar. If you find it, intercept it immediately and hand it over to me as soon as possible. "
"Yes, my lord."
Putting down the curtains, Edward rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Don't cause me any more trouble at a time like this, Lady Jorah."
Bauhinia collar.
"I said no, Hana. Can you move a little faster? I'm about to fall asleep from sitting."
In a room, Hana was cleaning Angeloni's wounds. When Ping Xi Wang fought, this woman completely ignored her opponent's attacks, causing her body to be covered in wounds. Even Hana, who was a mercenary and had gone through life and death countless times, still frowned when she saw the wounds on Angeloni's body.
"If you want to hurry up, don't move around, Miss Annie. I also want to end it quickly."
Angeloni, who was holding a bottle of wine in one hand, shrugged and said, "Blame me?"
