Zhao Xiang carried a bowl of medicine into the room and looked at Zhao Rao who was standing by the window, "Why did you open the window? The wind is strong, please be careful."
"So the moon in the desert is so round." Zhao Rao looked at the moon in the sky, "Cheng Zheng told me about the scenery of the desert and said he would bring me here. Now that I'm here, he's not here."
"I heard that when people die, they don't really leave. As long as there's someone they care about, they'll use another method to protect them." Zhao Xiang walked over and gave the bowl of medicine to Zhao Rao, "Maybe Master Cheng is watching you and your child from afar."
Zhao Rao smiled and took the medicine from Zhao Xiang's hands and drank it, "You don't have to come, your child is still so young."
"With Old Madam here, I can be at ease." Zhao Xiang smiled.
"We'll reach Sha Jiu City tomorrow." Zhao Rao's eyes were cold, "Lu Yaoyao is already on the way."
Zhao Xiang said, "Shui Yichen only gave her ten thousand troops, she's no match for us."
"After we catch Lu Yaoyao, don't kill her, I want to do it myself." Zhao Rao said coldly.
"Country Protector Marquis will know." Zhao Xiang said, "It's getting late, you should rest first."
"Ok." Zhao Rao nodded. She wanted to rest and take care of her body. She wanted to give birth to the child safely.
Zhao Xiang held onto Zhao Rao's hand as they walked to the bed. She saw a few unopened letters on the table, "Ning 'er wrote again?"
"Burn them." Zhao Rao's voice turned cold.
"Don't you want to see what she says?" Zhao Xiang asked softly. She was her sister after all, were they really going to become enemies?
"I don't want to hate her." Zhao Rao sat down on the bed, "But Cheng Zheng's death was caused by her. Tell her never to return to Qi and never to appear in front of me. I'll pretend I never had her as my sister."
Zhao Xiang massaged her shoulders. She knew that Zhao Rao's heart was filled with hatred. Even though she knew this had nothing to do with Zhao Ning, she would still hate her. But wasn't Zhao Ning innocent?
If Song Honao hadn't saved her, she would've been dead.
"I know it was wrong of him to capture Zhao Ning. He shouldn't have put her under house arrest. He won't hurt Zhao Ning. She is my sister. I believe he knows what he's doing." Zhao Rao looked at the curtains and said in a low voice, "Lu Yaoyao killed him because she wanted to weaken Qi's power."
In Cheng Zheng's heart, Zhao Rao was the most important person to him. He wouldn't hold back when it came to Zhao Ning.
On this point, Zhao Xiang was clearer than Zhao Rao. Zhao Rao was blinded by a leaf, she was not willing to believe that Cheng Zheng would harm Zhao Ning.
"Since you want to end the sisterhood, then let's see what Zhao Ning has to say." Zhao Xiang said in a low voice, "I'll read it to you."
"No, I know what she wants to say," Zhao Rao said lightly. "I don't want to hear it."
Zhao Xiang nodded. "Alright, I'll burn the letter. Have a good rest."
"En." Zhao Rao closed her eyes. She was going to see her enemy soon, so she needed a good rest.
Picking up the letter on the table, Zhao Xiang left only an oil lamp and quietly left the room. Returning to her own room, she opened the letter and read it.
In the letter, Zhao Ning wrote about the pain of being placed under house arrest in the dungeon, and the danger of almost having a miscarriage. Cheng Zheng didn't soften just because she was Zhao Rao's sister. He was a cruel and merciless person.
"Big Sister, Cheng Zheng's death hurt you. If I die, Ah Yi will definitely suffer the same pain. Please don't hate Lu Yaoyao. Hate me instead. This happened because of me, don't drag others into it …"
When Zhao Xiang saw the last sentence, she sighed. She felt that Zhao Ning's thinking was too simple. If Zhao Rao didn't kill Lu Yaoyao, she wouldn't be able to resolve the hatred in her heart.
Knock knock — —
Hearing the knocks on the door, Zhao Xiang kept the letter.
"Who is it?" Zhao Xiang asked, walking up to open the door.
The person looking for Zhao Xiang was Song Honao.
"Big Uncle, what's the matter?" Zhao Xiang asked.
"Lu Yaoyao has reached Baili Continent. We'll be at Sha Jiu City tomorrow." Song Honao said, "Persuade His Majesty to let me see Lu Yaoyao first."
Zhao Xiang's eyes flashed with surprise, "You want to see Lu Yaoyao? Why? "
"If we can avoid fighting, it's good for everyone." Song Honao said in a low voice.
"That's impossible!" Zhao Xiang shook her head, "His Majesty won't rest until he kills Lu Yaoyao."
Song Honao took a deep breath, "Is there a way to resolve His Majesty's hatred?"
"Revive Cheng Zheng." Zhao Xiang said, "Otherwise, there's no other way."
"No matter what, persuade His Majesty first." Song Honao said.
"I will do my best. Big Uncle, are you confident of winning?" Zhao Xiang asked.
Song Honao laughed at himself, "Our opponents are Mo Rongzhan and Lu Yaoyao. Even the former Emperor couldn't do anything to Lu Yaoyao. What do you think our chances are?"
"What ability does that Lu Yaoyao have to actually make Imperial Father …" Zhao Xiang covered her mouth. She knew how disgraceful her words were.
"You'll know when you see her in the future." Song Honao whispered.
Zhao Xiang glanced at Song Honao, "I understand."
…
…
At the same time as Ye Zhen and the others arrived in the Baili Continent, Zhao Rao also arrived in Sha Jiucheng. Looking at the desert outside the city wall, she imagined Cheng Zheng beside her. "Cheng Zheng, look, I will avenge you soon."
"Your Majesty." Ling Jian walked behind Zhao Rao.
"Is Lu Yaoyao in the Baili Continent?" Zhao Xiang asked in a deep voice.
Ling Jian nodded gently, "She arrived this morning. Your Majesty, I heard that you let Zhen Guohou see Lu Yaoyao first."
"Song Honao doesn't give up. Let him meet Lu Yaoyao. Only when he gives up will he fight well." She was deeply in love with Cheng Zheng and knew what it was like to fall in love with someone. Song Hongao and Zhao Yong were both in love with Lu Yaoyao, but he hid it better. If Lu Yaoyao hadn't reappeared after disappearing for four years, Song Hongao probably wouldn't have realized his own feelings.
"Then the people we left in the Baili Continent …" Ling Jian looked up at Zhao Rao's back.
"Find a chance to kill Mo Rongzhan." After a pause, he continued, "And Lu Yaoyao's son."
Ling Jian bowed his head, "Yes."
Although Cheng Zheng had died, he had left behind many people for her, such as the Shadow Guards who were hidden everywhere.
She must let Lu Yaoyao feel the pain of losing her loved one.
"Don't let Zhen Guohou and the Second Princess know about this." Zhao Xiang ordered.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Ling Jian responded.
Zhao Rao glanced at the desert again, turned and walked down the city wall, meeting Zhao Xiang in the corner.
"Elder sister …" Zhao Xiang looked at her helplessly.
"I'll go back and drink the abortion medicine right away." Zhao Rao said with a smile.
