Chapter 884 General Agni's Next Wife (62)

A generous hand suddenly came over to hold Xia Qiu's.

"Let's find a warm place to hide first, maybe those people are still looking for us." Makino said to himself.

Next to the shoal was a dense forest, and the terrain was steep. Makino carefully guarded Xia Qiu's side, and the bloody horse followed them, looking for a place to hide.

There were soft fallen leaves under his feet, Makino's clothes were soaked, but his body was still very hot, and when they reached a steep place, he simply bent down.

"Come on." He turned back.

Xia Qiu hesitated for a moment, then leaned on his back and wrapped his arms around his neck.

Yu Qiu'er was petite, she was a woman from the south of the Yangtze River, she could barely move her legs when walking in the forest, and the ragged skirts couldn't protect her, the branches and weeds beside her scratched her calves sorely.

The sky gradually dimmed, and the light in the gaps in the forest began to be faint.

Ah Xue followed beside them, snorting loudly.

Xia Qiu heard Makino ask again, "Qiuqiu, do you want to be a queen?"

"You want to rebel..." Xia Qiu was startled.

From the very beginning, she told him that it was the people in the palace who wanted to break them up. At that time, Makino told her to hold back, and she always gave in. Why did she suddenly mention it now?

His eyes were dark, "The fire army is loyal to the country, I am dedicated to guarding the border, and finally go to be wiped out by the people in the palace and then hurry up!"

"Perhaps it's the eldest princess's revenge?" Xia Qiu understood that with the heart of that cold-faced woman, if she was calculated and snubbed, there must be someone who will fall behind.

"No, it's the queen who did it." Mu Ye took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Xia Qiu.

The agate pendant, which is transparent in jade, is carved with a fire phoenix with fluttering wings, and a word "Ling" is engraved in seal.

Xia Qiu felt a little unexpected when he touched the letter.

"The Zhou family has always held the Surabaya Army to guard the East China Sea. The Surabaya Army is not as good as the Fire Army...so they always wanted to get rid of me, but they never thought they would be so ruthless." Mu Ye said in a deep voice.

Like a flash of inspiration, some parts of the plot that Xia Qiu couldn't figure out, suddenly understood after hearing Makino's words.

She knew that Makino's fight against the dog army was a matter of death, but she couldn't figure it out, how could it be possible for Makino to be in such a dangerous situation with the fire army being so powerful? Still being rescued by cold words?

But if the Zhou family teamed up with Quan Rong to report the news in order to get rid of Makino, then all of this would be logical.

It's just that even Zhou's family didn't expect that cold words would ruin their plan.

But it doesn't matter, the Zhou family created public opinion and asked Mu Ye to marry Leng Yan, which was equivalent to using Leng Yan to tie Mu Ye to the same boat, and they became their own people.

But now, the marriage failed, so the Zhou family naturally didn't want Muye to continue living...

"Yu Qiu'er must have died a long time ago." Makino said suddenly, with a long sigh.

"The Zhou family's premeditated plan didn't take place in a day or two. If Yu Qiu'er was real, she might have died on the way when they planned her to return to Jiangnan. I feel guilty...but Qiuqiu, I'm also grateful...you can understand?"

What guilt, Yu Qiuer died because of him.

What about gratitude...

Xia Qiu was startled.

.

Soon, it was completely dark, and Makino found the cave where he stayed.

Putting Xia Qiu down, he carried Xia Qiu on his back in the cave and didn't take a few steps. Makino's clothes were wet, and his body temperature was astonishingly hot. Xia Qiu didn't feel anything when the cold wind was blowing outside. Now, as soon as he entered the cave, Xia Qiu could clearly feel him. Unsteady feet.

"I'll get you something to eat." Makino put Xia Qiu down, and then went out again.

In the end, before taking two steps, the tall figure staggered and fell directly to the ground.
