"Prince Eight, I would like to go as well; after all, an extra person ans extra strength, does it not?" Li Mingyin, who had always been overlooked, hurriedly stepped forward.
"Miss Li is both talented and good-looking; perhaps she might have so solutions," Yang Ruxin nodded quickly, "Let’s go together then."
Li Mingyin frowned slightly, puzzled by Yang Ruxin’s attitude.
But Yang Ruxin rely smiled; she truly thought this way, but of course, she had her own ulterior motives. Perhaps with this woman getting more exposure to the Crown Prince and Prince Eight at the frontline, she would develop feelings for them and fall in love. If that happened, the uncomfortable situation she found herself in now might just be resolved.
Anyway, it wouldn’t matter much to the residences of the Crown Prince and Prince Eight whether there was one more or one less woman around.
Originally, Qi Jingyi hadn’t intended to bring Li Mingyin along, but since Yang Ruxin had spoken, he didn’t refuse and nodded his agreent.
Although Qi Jingyi really wanted Yang Ruxin to join right away, she was waiting for news from Xiaohei, and so, they could only wait another night. While the situation there was urgent, the "plague" here was even more pressing.
The night was deep, but Li Mingyin couldn’t sleep at all.
"Miss, it’s getting late," her maid Doukou couldn’t help but speak up to remind her.
"Has there been any news from Hong Dou yet?" Li Mingyin simply sat up.
"No," Doukou shook her head, then glanced at Li Mingyin, hesitating to speak.
"Do you want to persuade to give up?" Li Mingyin sighed deeply, looking at the maid who had been with her since childhood.
"Miss, Doukou really doesn’t understand," Doukou frankly expressed the thoughts that had been pressing on her mind these days, "How outstanding and proud of a woman you are, Miss! Why must you..." she paused, "Miss, I just feel it’s not worth it for you."
Li Mingyin gave a bitter smile: "How could I not know that I’m not worth it? But now, I can’t even make sense of it myself... But how is it that I can’t compare to a village girl?" At first, it was because she found that man very impressive. Although she knew he was married, to a village girl, no less, she really didn’t take it to heart and thought that if she took the initiative, the man would surely favor her. But unexpectedly, that re village girl turned out to be so formidable, effortlessly solving the disease that had the military doctors at a loss as Dao Xuzi’s disciple. Moreover, Gu Qingheng’s love for her was obviously genuine, which made her feel insecure, yet for so reason, it made her even more unwilling to accept it.
Therefore, she needed the detailed information about Yang Ruxin; she had to know everything about her.
Only by knowing oneself and one’s enemy can one fight a hundred battles without danger of defeat.
At this point, Li Mingyin may not have realized that her goal in competing with Yang Ruxin appeared to have little to do with Gu Qingheng anymore.
Doukou sighed, "It’s just that, Miss, this way you will suffer a lot."
Li Mingyin lay down again: "Let’s sleep." Suffering? Perhaps.
Yang Ruxin had originally thought Xiaohei would return early the next morning, but she ended up waiting until the evening before she heard a cry from the sky.
Then, several joyful cries followed; it was Heihei and Xiaohei greeting Xiaohei as they heard its voice.
Xiaohei, seeing its partner approaching, led them in circles in the sky before seeing Yang Ruxin below and diving straight down.
Xiaohei also imitated and dived down.
Those standing below felt a strong gust of wind, as though it could carry them away, and they quickly closed their eyes.
