With One Month Left To Live, I Raised The Young Empress To Be A Sickly Girl

Prison outside the city

Fierce battles had taken place here, and the sturdy cell was now in tatters. A large number of corpses fell on the ground, all of them wearing black clothes to hide their appearance.

At the gate of the prison, stood several masters from the Zhenwu Division, dressed in black robes, with wild goose feather sabers across their waists, looking majestic.

Among the few people, a middle-aged man who was also wearing a black robe but with a yellow unicorn embroidered on his front was sitting on a chair, holding a tea cup with a nonchalant expression, taking a sip of tea and spitting out the tea residue in his mouth.

The man's name was Li Xiao, the commander-in-chief of the Zhenwu Division. He was known as the Tiger of the Empire and was the most visible person in the Tianlong Dynasty.

During the reign of the late Emperor, he accompanied the Southern Expeditionary Army to conquer the alien beasts in the southern restricted area, and single-handedly defeated an entire army of alien beasts. When the Chaohai Empire from the north invaded southward, he once charged into an army of millions alone and captured The head of the top master of Xia Chaohai stopped the Chaohai Empire from going south.

With these two battles, Li Xiao's reputation spread throughout the Tianlong Dynasty, earning him the title of Imperial Tiger.

"Are you ready?"

Li Xiao held the teacup and raised his head and glanced around. In addition to the fallen men in black, there were many masters from the Zhenwu Division who were bringing back the robbed prisoners one by one from all directions.

As soon as he finished speaking, someone beside Li Xiao lowered his head and whispered a few words into his ear, then took out a roster and handed it to him.

Li Xiao raised his eyebrows and looked a little displeased. He was about to curse when a faint call suddenly came from his ears. He looked startled, stood up quickly, stepped on the void and flew towards the wall of the imperial capital.

Seeing Young Master Long Aotian in white on the city wall, Li Xiao jumped down in fear, raised his hands and saluted, "Master."

Long Aotian put his hands behind his back and looked into the distance with bright eyes, "Is it too late?"

Li Xiao nodded slightly, "Master said it was three quarters of the day, but in fact it started taking action at the second quarter of the hour. They were the people kidnapped at the second quarter of the hour...".

Have you been deceived? No, that guy heard it wrong, or he has other intentions... Long Aotian thought secretly in his heart.

"...all the prison robbers have been killed, and the prisoners have been captured, but...there are still three people missing..."

Li Xiao hesitated for a moment and then told the truth.

"Three people missing? Missing?"

Long Aotian raised his eyebrows and suddenly thought of something. He raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said, "That's it for now. You go and investigate who is behind these people. Kill whoever deserves to be killed. Don't let these traitors stand up." Opportunity".

"The three people who escaped..."

"Just three inconsequential fugitives, don't worry about them."

Ten years ago, Chen Dewang went out to visit the city and accidentally discovered the beautiful environment in the mountains outside the imperial capital. So he spent a huge sum of money to buy a piece of land and build a house.

The original intention is to escape the summer heat or to stay temporarily and recuperate during vacation.

During the years when the house was built, he would come here every year to play, but as the new emperor ascended the throne, everyone was in danger, and Chen Dewang was afraid of being gossiped about, so he never came again.

The two eldest sons only like to support prostitutes, while the third son, Chen Mo, is a homebody who never goes out for ten thousand years. The house outside the city has been put on hold for a few years.

Now that the house was abandoned, Chen Dewang did not dare to come out and play around, so he simply gave the house to Chen Mo.

"That's my future home, no, it's our home."

Chen Mo held the reins with one hand and pointed at the deserted courtyard in the distance with the other hand.

"Home?"

Liu Wuxin sat in front of Chen Mo, murmuring and repeating Chen Mo's words, with a complex expression in his heterochromatic eyes.

Ever since she could remember, she had never had the concept of family. The old beggar who raised her when she was young, the madam in the brothel, and the man who once rescued her had never regarded her as family.

How can you know what light is when you are always in darkness.

Chen Mo's hand gently fell on Liu Wuxin's head. The latter subconsciously dodged for a moment, but he didn't. He could only shrink back in fear. He thought he would be beaten, but for a long time he didn't feel any pain. Instead, he felt a burst of pain. A gentle touch.

The warmth of her palms and her superb head-touching killing technique made Liu Wuxin gradually let down her guard. She, who was always abandoned like a stray cat, seemed to have found a place that could accommodate her.

"I know that you have experienced too much suffering in your life. I can't accompany you in the time ahead of you, but I think I can always stay by your side and protect you in the future."

Chen Mo gently stroked Liu Wuxin's little head, and his voice was also very gentle.

Like drinking fine wine, it is intoxicating.

Liu Wuxin only felt that she had had a very beautiful dream. This dream was what she had always hoped for. Someone could accommodate her and accept her so that she would no longer be bullied and would not have to step into it again. A hellish world.

But, can this dream come true?

Liu Wuxin had too many hopes, but reality gave her one heavy blow after another.

She was afraid that she would make the same mistake again this time.

Liu Wuxin pinched the tattered corners of her clothes with her small hands full of pimples, turned to look at Chen Mo, and when their eyes met, she said: "I have heterochromatic eyes. They all say that I am the source of disaster and make me suffer." They unfortunate people, people like me, don’t deserve to live”.

"Um"

"I have diseases in my body. These things make me ugly. They are all afraid that I will infect them and make them ugly like me."

"Um"

"There are bugs on my body, they are poisonous, and, and..."

"No matter what you have, I will never abandon you."

Chen Mo stroked Liu Wuxin's head again. This time, she didn't hide or be afraid. The colors in her heterochromatic pupils became more vivid.

"Liu Wuxin"

Liu Wuxin pondered for a long time before she mustered up the courage to say, "My name is Liu Wuxin."

"My name is Chen Mo, the old Chen, the Mo who protects you silently"

Outside the courtyard, there are overgrown weeds. Weeds as tall as a person are spread over dozens of feet in radius. They have not been taken care of all year round. The place has been abandoned and the roads are full of thorns.

Chen Mo was worried about how to get in, but he saw a road not far away, leading directly to the gate of the courtyard. It seemed that it was a road specially opened by someone.

Moreover, the traces look very new, no more than a day old.

"Who will it be at this time?"

Chen Mo frowned slightly, not daring to act rashly. After waiting for a while, he saw Zhang Long riding his horse.

"Third Young Master"

Zhang Long was walking in a hurry, there were still beads of sweat on his forehead, and there were many wounds, large and small, on his body, but they were all skin injuries.

In his early years, Zhang Long came out to work for a few years. Although his strength was not great, his escape skills were still good.

"Is everything okay?"

Chen Mo first asked about Zhang Long's situation, and the latter nodded slightly and said: "I'm just an Eight Grade Martial Artist. He can't kill me yet. Now, that guy has been killed by the masters of the Zhenwu Division. Zhao Hu went back with the Zhenwu Division. , I was interrogated for a while and I came late.”

“As long as it’s okay”

Chen Mo nodded slightly, then looked at the courtyard, "There are traces of digging outside the house. I don't know who did it. Come with me and take a look."
