Chapter 955 - 214: Can’t Have More_3
No news had come from anywhere, and as soon as the Crown Prince arrived with reinforcements, he advised Emperor Chu Wen to feign compliance and first rescue Pei Qin before planning further actions.
On the sixth day, Emperor Chu Wen sighed deeply, "Go send a message to the Rong Clan!" He could not fail to save Pei Qin. Though an emperor might be heartless, he could not let a woman who had been pivotal in retaking the lands meet her demise! The people of the world would not allow it!
Lu Hai and Liu Feng, accompanied by Pei Qin, escorted by a group from the Mortar Barracks, headed for Liaodong.
The Rong Clan Witch Doctor provided them with a pill for Pei Qin to ingest, which could sustain her for two more days, ensuring she would not die before reaching Liaodong.
It was fortunate that Pei Qin’s pain had made her momentarily lucid. She cried out from the cold and pain and asked Mo Heng many troublesome questions. Just as they reached the pass, Mo Heng arrived swiftly, having already brought back the Seven-pulse Lotus.
Upon hearing the Seven-pulse Lotus had been found, Lu Hai and Liu Feng immediately took Pei Qin back.
The Imperial Physician carefully verified the authenticity of the Seven-pulse Lotus, quickly prepared a medication, and detoxified Pei Qin.
After watching over Pei Qin for a day and a night, the critical period finally passed, and the utterly spent Mo Heng finally collapsed.
