“Huh? But...” Yu'er's small face was filled with confusion.
Chu Qing just smiled and said nothing more.
Was Xu Xin also hatching this plan?
Did she think that without evidence, Chu Qing wouldn't do anything to her?
Did she think this was a grand mansion or the imperial harem?
If it were in the imperial harem or a grand mansion, without concrete evidence, it would indeed be difficult for Chu Qing to take action against her.
But now...
To kill someone who wanted to harm her, she didn't need any reason at all.
...
In the following days, although Chu Qing thought she was fine, Wei Ying still told her to drink the fetal - protecting medicine prescribed by the doctor every day.
After all, she had been exposed to that spice for quite a while, so it couldn't hurt to drink some medicine to strengthen the fetus.
After Chu Qing drank the medicine and said she wanted to rest, Wei Ying, afraid of disturbing her, went out to find Batel.
After telling Lvluo to retreat, Chu Qing finally found an opportunity to find Little Meatball.
"Boss~" Little Meatball immediately replied obsequiously with a big smile after hearing Chu Qing's voice.
"Where the hell were you before?" Chu Qing asked coldly.
Little Meatball had been completely silent during several previous dangerous situations.
Now that Chu Qing had calmed down, she felt that something was off.
If she were really going to die, Little Meatball surely wouldn't have stood by. Since she rarely relied on Little Meatball, she never thought about escaping danger with its help during those dangerous situations.
So, she almost forgot about Little Meatball several times.
After calming down and thinking carefully, she gradually figured out that Little Meatball seemed to be able to judge whether the danger she encountered was really life - threatening.
That was why it was often silent.
What on earth was this "system"? It was so powerful that it could even predict future events.
Little Meatball naturally sensed Chu Qing's thoughts. It frowned its non - existent eyebrows and replied, "Boss, I went for repairs before."
"Repairs for what?"
"Um... Sorry, boss. I... can't say too much." Little Meatball replied dejectedly.
It was so useless!
It was completely suppressed by the little old lady!
Um...
It didn't say that name just now, did it?!
No, no, it didn't say that!
Its boss was definitely not a little old lady!
Thinking of this, Little Meatball shrank back nervously.
Seeing that Little Meatball didn't answer, Chu Qing didn't press it. She asked another question instead, "So, what exactly are you? That so - called Rebirth System sounds so vague. I still don't quite understand it."
"Um..." Little Meatball paused. After wracking its brain, it found it really couldn't explain it to her.
So, Little Meatball said carefully, "You'll know after you complete all the tasks."
Even it thought this answer was perfunctory.
It thought the other party would be angry, but Chu Qing just responded softly and then said nothing more.
She'd better stop thinking about these headache - inducing things for now.
After completing the final task, she would probably understand.
Um, the final task...
What was the final task again?
Ah... Right, to investigate the real cause of her death in her previous life...
Well...
Chu Qing laughed at herself: She really had a big heart...
...
Three days later, Batel and the others were all packed and ready to attack Aqitu.
A Lana probably never expected that they would act so quickly.
These days, it was Batel, Da Ren, and Gerile who had been discussing the plan. Wei Ying had only indirectly provided some key points.
After all, this was a matter on their grassland.
Wei Ying thought that Batel was fully capable of handling it on his own.
So, Batel's troops were charging forward menacingly.
Wei Ying was leading Chu Qing and the Black Cloud Army leisurely in the back.
Sitting in Wei Ying's arms, Chu Qing said with a smile, "Aren't we being a bit too bully? Two major tribes joining forces, plus the Black Cloud Army..."
Wei Ying said indifferently, "I didn't tell the Black Cloud Army to participate. We're just going there to watch the fun. If he's scared, that's his problem."
Hearing this, Chu Qing burst into laughter.
When did this guy Wei Ying become so sly!
Seeing Chu Qing so happy, Wei Ying held her hand, and she held his back.
While the two were flirting in the back, Batel looked serious in the front.
He was a bit worried about Gerile's state.
But when he secretly glanced at Gerile, he found that she looked calm.
What a strong - minded person! Batel sighed.
...
When she saw the smoke rising in the distance, Chu Qing smiled.
A Lana was still here.
She wondered if he was too confident or... too stupid.
Batel and Da Ren led their troops to charge forward, and A Lana quickly prepared to fight back after getting the news.
Gerile calmly retreated to Chu Qing's side. She didn't participate in the attack on Aqitu. She just needed to wait quietly.
In her words, it was the last bit of kindness left for A Lana.
Chu Qing didn't argue with her.
Although Gerile seemed to be taking advantage of the situation, it was also because of her good judgment.
...
The final result was self - evident.
A Lana was no match for Batel and Da Ren at all.
He originally wanted to use a despicable means to sneak attack Batel, but Da Ren ended his life with one move.
When Gerile saw A Lana's body, she finally turned her head away.
...
Before this, Chu Qing had made an agreement with them to bring Xu Xin to her.
Batel nodded understandingly.
So when Chu Qing saw Xu Xin being brought by Batel, there was a glint of amusement in her eyes.
When Xu Xin was tied up and brought in a daze in front of Chu Qing, she was extremely unwilling.
"Why are you tying me up! I'm not from Aqitu!" Xu Xin's eyes were blood - red.
"What do you think?" Chu Qing jumped off the horse and walked slowly up to Xu Xin.
"What do you mean... I don't know!" Xu Xin avoided Chu Qing's gaze and involuntarily took a step back.
"You've tried to harm me again and again, and you managed to escape last time. This time, you even set your sights on my unborn child." As she said this, the killing intent in Chu Qing's eyes suddenly flared up.
"I didn't! What evidence do you have! Don't frame an innocent person!" Xu Xin still refused to admit it.
She seemed to think that as long as she didn't admit it, this bitch Chu Qing would have no way to deal with her.
Stupid people were always self - indulgent.
This time, Xu Xin had touched Chu Qing's bottom line. How could Chu Qing let her go so easily?
"Evidence? Do you think I need such a thing?" Chu Qing curled her lips.
"You..." Xu Xin finally realized that she might have thought wrong.
Chu Qing was never a kind - hearted person!
If she really wanted her life, she wouldn't care about evidence or not.
But she still refused to give up. She said fiercely, "Aren't you afraid that others will think you're cruel and ruthless?"
"Oh?" Chu Qing raised her eyebrows and then turned to look at the others. "Do you think I'm cruel and ruthless? I haven't done anything yet~"
Gerile was the first to speak. "The Princess of Ning has always been gentle and kind. How could she be a cruel and ruthless person? I still have some things to deal with. I'll go first."
Chu Qing nodded with a smile.
Then Batel and the others first praised Chu Qing and then found some strange reasons to lead their men away.
Chu Qing continued to look at Xu Xin and said unhurriedly, "Look, everyone is praising this princess. Now, let's settle our scores properly."
As she said this, Chu Qing took out a short knife from her body.
