Qin Yining actually didn't have the energy to chat anymore.
She was injured and had lost blood again. Her body, which had not recovered, was damaged again. Moreover, she had been kidnapped this time and didn't have the means to properly recover.
Therefore, she was very weak right now. If it weren't for the fact that she had been holding on with one last breath, gritting her teeth and telling herself that she couldn't relax, she might really be abandoned here once she relaxed. She might also become a burden that they abandoned.
"It's nothing much. I just want to live." Qin Yining's throat was unbearably dry. She didn't want to say anything else and only gave this answer indifferently. She didn't even look at Si Qin.
Si Qin became even more interested when she saw her indifference.
"If you were an ordinary woman, you would have tried your best to flatter me in order to live a better life. However, you are different from them. "
Qin Yining looked straight ahead and said, "You should speak less and conserve more energy."
Siqin was refuted, but she wasn't angry. Instead, she laughed to herself as she walked beside Qin Yining. Her laughter was hoarse, but there was joy from the bottom of her heart. The Men of Sacrifice walking in front couldn't help but turn back to look at her. Then, they turned back to whisper again.
Even though they had been trekking in the desert for so long, Qin Yining's appearance was still beautiful in the eyes of these men.
Unlike the tall and strong Tatan women, Qin Yining, who was a beauty born in Jiangnan, was very different in the eyes of these men.
If she wasn't the Princess Consort of Pang Zhixi, these men would have some thoughts about her.
However, Si Qin didn't allow them to make a move on her.
Now that they saw Si Qin laughing like that, the men all understood. It seemed that the prince consort's heart had been moved and he had feelings for this beauty.
Although Anari Khan is also beautiful, she is also very beautiful. However, her tyrannical and domineering attitude towards others had already made them tired of her beauty. This delicate and weak beauty was the polar opposite of A Nari.
As the men walked, they thought that if Si Qin had feelings for this girl, they would find a way to help him cover it up.
However, as soon as these people formed their thoughts, a cloud of dust approached from the front.
What was coming from afar was actually a group of horses!
"Prince Consort, look!"
The one in front put his hand on his forehead and looked into the distance. He shouted excitedly, "It's our people! It was the Khan! The Khan is here! "
"It really is Khan!"
"Prince Consort, we're saved!"
…
The men were no longer dispirited as they cheered loudly in excitement. Si Qin was also overjoyed and hurried to greet him.
Qin Yining leaned on a tree branch and stood in place, exchanging glances with Lu Heng, who was also in a similar sorry state.
Their group of people had been kidnapped. When they set off, there were more than ten of them, but now, only the two of them were left.
Their eyes were filled with the joy of surviving a calamity and the confusion of the unknown future.
None of them knew how A Nari would treat them.
At this moment, Si Qin had already rushed to the front of the group.
"A Nari, you're here."
A beautiful woman in a bright red riding outfit and a silver-white snow fox fur cloak urged her horse forward.
Her appearance couldn't be considered outstanding, but her facial features could be considered regular. However, the aura around her was very valiant. Her every movement revealed a valiant and domineering aura.
When she saw Si Qin, a smile appeared on her face. She reined in her horse and jumped down. Like a little girl who was looking forward to being cherished, she quickly walked forward.
"It wasn't easy to find you. You were gone for so long, but you refused to let anyone pass a message to me. You made me so worried."
Si Qin held A Nari's hands, a gentle smile on his handsome face. "How did you find your way to the desert?"
"I brought some people along the way to pick you up, but we didn't manage to find you. Later on, I heard that a group of people had been attacked by bandits and were heading in the direction of the desert. I was worried that you had encountered a calamity, so I wanted to chase after you. It was my people who reminded me that it would be better to take the official road back to the capital and then come here from the capital. Otherwise, we would also be trapped in the desert."
Si Qin smiled and touched A Nari's face. "You're so nice."
A Nari's face instantly flushed red. He said uncomfortably, "For your safety, I should do anything. Did you have fun in Da Zhou this time? "
"It was alright. We didn't get the treasure, but we caught a few people. There wasn't enough water on the way, so I threw some people away. Now, there are only two left. "
Si Qin pointed behind him as he spoke.
A Nari looked in the direction of Si Qin's finger and met Lu Heng and Qin Yining's gazes.
Being exposed to the wind and the sun in the desert, even if a celestial being descended from the heavens, he wouldn't look any better. Moreover, Qin Yining and Lu Heng were wearing coarse clothes and dirty scarves covered in sand. Their hair was also in a mess.
A Nari glanced at them casually and asked, "Who are they?"
"One of them is the second son of the Lu family in Da Zhou. The other is the princess consort of Prince Zhongshun. Initially, I caught a survivor of the Qingtian Alliance. However, the Qingtian Alliance refused to tell me the whereabouts of the treasure. Keeping them would only be a waste of water and food, so I threw them away. "
"Mm, you did well." A Nari ordered someone to bring out a water bottle and distribute the water and dry food to everyone.
Si Qin and A Nari sat at the side, chatting and laughing softly.
Qin Yining and Lu Heng were given a half-empty water bag and a dry biscuit each.
Qin Yining didn't dare to eat it all at once, in case something unexpected happened along the way. He only ate a few bites of the tasteless dry biscuits with cold water.
Lu Heng frowned as he ate. He said softly, "It's been hard on you. You're still weak."
Qin Yining smiled bitterly and said softly, "I'm already lucky to be alive. If the Khan hadn't rushed over, I would have been the next one thrown away. "
Lu Heng smiled bitterly as well.
No one expected that they would end up like this after coming here for the treasure.
They didn't know how A Nari would treat them when they reached the Tatan capital.
When Qin Yining and Lu Heng were talking, A Nari and Si Qin's attention was on the two of them.
Si Qin said softly, "The Lu family's Second Master Lu and Minister Qin's daughter aren't simple people. We can take them back and temporarily raise them. Even if we can't get any secrets about the treasure, we can use them as hostages to negotiate with the Zhou Emperor. We can also make a lot of money. I believe that this will bring us more benefits than the treasure. "
A Nari smiled. "You're right. We'll do as you say."
"The Khan always indulges me like this. It makes me feel bad." Si Qin said shyly.
A Nari looked at Si Qin's handsome face and couldn't help but blush. He said, "You and I are husband and wife. Shouldn't I support you? How can you indulge me? "
