I Woke the Sick and Disabled Prince on Our Wedding Night

174 Confrontation

When Pei Qian opened his eyes, he was already in the warm and comfortable tent.

Seeing him wake up, Qian He, who was guarding at the side, cried tears of joy. “Mr. Pei, you’ve been unconscious for a day and a night. You’re finally awake!”

After Pei Qian sat up, he looked at Qian He and asked, “Where’s Madam Liu?!”

“Gu Erlang has already brought people to chase after King Gu Han. I believe there will be results soon! Your injuries are not light. You can’t act rashly!” Qian He was shocked by Pei Qian’s actions. He quickly pounced on him and pressed him onto the bed. “Mr. Pei, you have to take care of yourself first. Madam Liu already has her husband chasing after her!

Moreover, I also followed your previous instructions and asked Lieutenant Ma and the others to chase after them!

They have more than ten top scouts. King Gu Han doesn’t have many people left. They won’t be able to escape far in such a short period of time!”

“Get Song Yu to escort the refugees from the refugee camp forward. Get your men and we’ll go look for Gu Erlang!”

After Pei Qian lifted the blanket covering him, he pushed Qian He away and got up from the bed.

The reason he had been unconscious for so long wasn’t because of his injuries, but because of the knockout powder Lin Suisui had thrown into the bonfire previously! Therefore, after resting for a day and a night, it was possible for him to catch up to Lu Ze now!

According to Qian He’s plan, it was best for Mr. Pei to recuperate now. However, Pei Qian didn’t agree, so Qian He could only make arrangements.

After Pei Qian finished instructing them, he led more than a hundred light cavalry on their way.

Pei Qian didn’t know the situation on Lu Ze’s side, but Qian He reported that Gu Erlang had already written and arranged for the eagles to send the information back to the border. At least, every pass and checkpoint at the border was heavily guarded.

Of course, with the Northern Battlefront Army that he could mobilize in the north, it was definitely impossible to complete all these arrangements, but if Lu Ze took action…

With the help of the Yanyun Army, it was much simpler.

Lin Suisui didn’t know how Pei Qian and Lu Ze were doing. She only knew that after traveling for the past two days, she was really about to collapse from exhaustion.

Although King Gu Han didn’t say it explicitly, from his urgent pace, they were probably tightly pursued.

However, it was also because of this that King Gu Han finally showed Lin Suisui what he was like when facing the enemy on the battlefield.

“We’ll be able to leave the border in a few days! After we leave the border, we won’t have to rush things so much anymore!” As Lin Suisui was sitting behind the stone pile to rest and think about things, King Gu Han suddenly walked over and squatted in front of her. Then, he handed her a water bottle. “Drink it!”

“What’s this?!” Lin Suisui took the water bottle from King Gu Han. Just as she pulled out the cork, she almost vomited from the smell of blood.

“Wolf blood,” King Gu Han replied very calmly. “We’ve been traveling for the past few days, so we can’t start a fire!”

Under such harsh conditions, if she kept eating dry steamed buns that were so cold that she could barely bite them, she would probably collapse in two days.

She was unwilling to eat raw meat like them, so she could only make do with wolf blood to replenish the iron in her body!

“Don’t look at me like that. I didn’t kidnap you for you to die on the way! Either you eat meat like us from now on, or drink this bag of wolf blood!”

As King Gu Han spoke, he took a piece of wolf meat that was still stained with blood from a subordinate and turned around to hand it to Lin Suisui. “You choose!”

Lin Suisui didn’t hesitate for long before she raised the bag in her hand and gulped down a few mouthfuls of wolf blood. The thick smell of blood made her eyes turn red, but she only took two breaths before raising the bag again.

She still had a few wheat biscuits in her hand, but she actually knew as well as King Gu Han that solely relying on wheat biscuits, her body couldn’t withstand the cold at all!

In order to survive, she had no other choice.

“Give me the meat too.” Seeing that King Gu Han was about to get up and leave, she chased after him and reached out to him.

King Gu Han was surprised.

He originally planned to leave, but now, he turned around and sat beside Lin Suisui. As he handed the piece of raw meat to her, he wanted to see what she would do next.

Lin Suisui ignored King Gu Han’s amused expression. As she took the raw meat from him, she took out the short knife Lu Ze had left for her.

She carefully cut off a piece of meat in her hand, put it in her mouth, and chewed expressionlessly before swallowing it. Although she frowned, she didn’t stop feeding herself.

“You were lying to me when you said that you abandoned your husband and had an affair with Mr. Pei, right?!” Seeing that Lin Suisui was eating, King Gu Han took out a wine pot and chatted with her as he drank.

“You said those words to deceive me and buy time for you and Pei Qian to wait for someone to save you, right?!”

After Lin Suisui swallowed the meat strip in her mouth, she looked up at King Gu Han. “So what if I did? I didn’t force you to believe me!”

“I’m not blaming you!

I’m just a little curious. When you lied to me, did you expect that I would kidnap you today?!”

King Gu Han sized up Lin Suisui. The more he looked at her, the more he felt that the woman in front of him suited him. “Do you regret it now?!”

Lin Suisui glanced at him, then ignored him as she continued to cut meat and feed herself.

“I know that you must be regretting it now!” As King Gu Han sized up Lin Suisui again, he chuckled. He continued to say confidently, “I once had a female slave from the empire!

Heh, knowing that she would have to stay by my side in the future and would never be able to return to the empire, she cried every day. After a few days, I became very annoyed and threw her to other people!

Why aren’t you crying?!”

“What’s there to cry about? Will you let me go just because I cry?!” Lin Suisui looked at King Gu Han angrily. Why did she even feel that this person was calm and decisive when he was on the battlefield just now?!

He was clearly an idiot!

“If I have the strength to cry, I might as well save the energy for something else.”
