After traveling through time, I rely on force to survive

Chapter 228 She is not hypocritical

Zhou Yimo had received instructions from Li Qingqing earlier and had been sending shadow guards to secretly protect Zhao Dipu.

Therefore, Wei Duhu's assassination attempt was doomed to fail again.

Li Qingqing was completely unaware of all this, and she had no idea that in Wei Duhu's heart, she only had half her life left.

This matter was actually misled by Zhou Yimo.

On the night of the assassination of Li Qingqing, there were too many people and outsiders did not know that the killer had been caught.

All we know is that since that night, Li Qingqing has been staying in her bedroom and has not come out. Except for Mr. Zhou who knows medicine, no one else is allowed to enter.

Even Deputy General Chi and other city guards wanted to come and visit, but were blocked outside the yard by Yun Su.

After being scolded by Zhou Yimo, Hu Dabao and others were so busy that they could not take care of themselves and dared not do anything else or say anything more.

When he thought of the thirty lashes hanging over his head, apart from rushing to build the city wall to meet the deadline, he could only work hard to recite the law.

For a time, the atmosphere on the entire border reached an unprecedented level of tension.

The captives were also panicked.

They had come from afar to help Dayuan Kingdom build its city wall, but before dawn, they were woken up by the loud trumpet calls.

While repairing the city wall of Dayuan Kingdom, they were forced to obey the laws of Dayuan Kingdom.

I don't know who I heard say that everyone must be familiar with the law, otherwise they will be punished with thirty lashes. I don't know if this is true or not?

The captives felt desolate. They were not citizens of the Great Abyss, so why should they get to know each other?

Therefore, they were extremely envious of their comrades who were still blocked on the other side of the river. Although those comrades had less food and drink, at least they did not have to suffer this ordeal.

Of course, the soldiers of the Qi'an Kingdom who were stranded on the other side of the moat were also extremely envious of the captives in the city.

They also want to be caught, at least so that they can have three meals a day, but they have no chance.

A man named Zhou in the border city had already conveyed their general's message and asked them to stay on standby.

In order to survive, they had to stay where they were, so these soldiers could only practice fishing skills by the moat all day long, which for a while became a unique landscape on the moat bank.

Li Qingqing didn't notice this unique scenery.

When she and Li Feng returned to the main city, it was still dark, so she was familiar with the route and climbed over the wall in the backyard again to return to her residence.

She needed to treat her wound first, and then go to Bai Ye to ask about Bai Shuang.

The clothes on the back had actually been wet for a long time due to the blood oozing from the wound. Fortunately, he was wearing dark clothes, so nothing unusual could be seen.

After dealing with the matter of Protector Wei, she had to rush to Feiyun City and must not delay her important journey because of her injuries.

The lights in the house flickered, but Li Qingqing didn't pay much attention to them. It must have been set up by Zhou Yimo.

She hadn't returned for a day and a night. Zhou Yimo had probably learned the whole story from Wu Meng and was sure that she would come back under the cover of night.

But she didn't expect that Zhou Yimo was actually waiting for her at his residence.

As soon as Li Qingqing walked into the outer hall, she saw Zhou Yimo sitting there.

When their eyes met, she paused.

"Why are you here?"

Li Qingqing approached with a slightly awkward look on her face. "How's the situation with General Zhao? Is there anything unusual going on?"

"There's nothing going on over there. Young Master Xie and the shadow guards are guarding them."

Zhou Yimo immediately stood up and went to greet her, "But you... go back to the bedroom first, let me check your injuries."

Zhou Yimo smelled a faint smell of rust on her body, and suddenly thought that the wound might have opened again.

He looked at Li Qingqing with complicated eyes, but his voice was unusually calm, without any other emotion.

"No problem—" Li Qingqing hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"it is good."

The wound is on the back, so someone really needs help to treat it.

She is not pretentious.

Zhou Yimo is quite professional in treating injuries. Since he is there, there is no need to call Yun Su, the female man, to help.

The two said nothing more.

After a day and night of running around, Li Qingqing was exhausted. While Zhou Yimo was helping her change the dressing, she lay down on the edge of the table and fell asleep unknowingly.

When she woke up, it was already daybreak.

She hadn't known when she was lying on the bed, covered with a thin blanket.

Li Qingqing came back to her senses and got up instantly.

Upon closer inspection, I saw that the wound was bandaged very carefully and the ointment was reapplied. It felt cool and comfortable, and no longer had a burning pain.

What’s more thoughtful is that even her underwear was put on properly.

Li Qingqing's face flushed. She actually slept so soundly while the dressing was being changed.

However, she had lived in the afterlife for more than twenty years, so she was not bothered by it.

After tidying herself up, Li Qingqing walked out of the bedroom and saw Zhou Yimo sitting in the hall waiting for her.

Li Qingqing: "..."

Well, she admitted that she was still a little embarrassed.

Li Qingqing was hesitating, not knowing how to start, but Zhou Yimo had already seen her.

"You're awake,"

Zhou Yimo did not mention the dressing change. When he saw Li Qingqing coming out of the bedroom, he immediately stood up and smiled warmly at her.

"Please sit down for a moment. I'll get you something to eat."

Without waiting for Li Qingqing to reply, Zhou Yimo hurried out of the outer hall. His back looked a little hurried, as if he was running away.

Li Qingqing: "..."

Hey, don't go, she has other things to deal with urgently!

Under Zhou Yimo's silent gaze throughout the whole process, Li Qingqing finished her breakfast and lunch awkwardly.

"Bai Ye's injury should be fine, right? I have to go talk to him." Li Qingqing put down her bowl and chopsticks and looked at Zhou Yimo.

Although Zhou Yimo learned the details of her night visit to the Protectorate from Wu Meng, Li Qingqing still briefly explained the reason for looking for Bai Ye.

"I'll go get him."

Zhou Yimo was silent for a moment, but still said honestly,

"After waking up the day before yesterday afternoon, Bai Ye refused to explain why and simply knelt in the yard. No matter who called him, he refused to get up. He was truly incredibly stubborn—"

Li Qingqing's face changed when she heard that, and she immediately stood up and ran out of the hall.

Zhou Yimo: “…”

Before he could finish his words, a figure flashed by, and the chair in front of him trembled slightly, while Li Qingqing had already strode out of the yard.

Outside the hospital.

Bai Ye's knees had actually been numb for a long time. He lowered his eyebrows and tried his best to use his willpower to control himself from moving.

He was tormented by guilt, and only remembered his master's anger that day and the cold sweat the size of beans on his forehead when he was pressed on the torture pillar.

The residence had been quiet all the time. He didn't know what his master was doing now. He only knew that apart from Lord Zhou frequently coming in and out of the residence, he had never seen his master come out once.

The winter sun was not scorching, but he felt as if his whole body was burning with fire.

He wanted to sneak in to see his master, but he didn't dare. He didn't even have the qualifications to see his master now.

He could only atone for his sins in this way like a useless person. Only in this way could he feel a little better.

Bai Ye secretly decided that his life was saved by his master, and if anything happened to his master, his life would be wasted.

Bai Ye was daydreaming when he suddenly heard a burst of hurried footsteps running towards him, and then a pair of brocade boots that were slightly smaller came into view.

Bai Ye was startled. He suddenly raised his head and looked at the person who came with surprise, but the smile froze on his face in an instant.

He saw his master, whom he had been waiting for two days and two nights, running up to him with an angry look on his face, quickly squatting down and holding his wrist pulse.

My wrist felt cold, followed by a faint medicinal fragrance and a faint smell of rust.

Bai Ye was a little flustered and he struggled a bit.

"do not move!"

With a low scolding, Bai Ye dared not move for a moment.
