After the violent wolf lord was reborn, he became sickly!

When they saw Tuoba Jin coming, they all bowed to him.

Tuoba Jin's eyebrows twitched slightly and he spoke out to stop them, but everyone still knelt down in fear, muttering in their hearts that they did not want to be targeted by the Wolf Lord, so they had to be cautious.

Tuoba Jin had no choice but to wave his sleeves to ask them to stand up, and glanced at Luntu coldly.

He really wasn't seeking revenge for personal gain, but was deliberately making these people feel nervous as they came to give gifts.

Luntu smiled back sheepishly and held out his hand, "Wolf Lord, please."

Tuoba Jin retracted his gaze, raised his eyelids lightly, sat down in the main seat, and glanced at the prepared banquet. It was considered something that made him feel at ease.

Xiao Linglang sat on the right side of Tuoba Jin. Next to her was Lun Tu's wife. Logically, she should have sat at the women's seat, but in Mobei, men and women sat at the same table.

At the table were Luntu and a few people who had followed Tuoba Jin since the mansion, including her and Mrs. Luntu, the only female members of the family.

Before they were halfway through, Luntu's wife was called away by a maid. Xiao Linglang listened to their conversation absent-mindedly and ate stiffly.

While Tuoba Jin was putting down his wine glass, she secretly tugged at the hem of his clothes. When he looked over, she shyly whispered in his ear, "Lord Wolf, I want to go out for a walk."

"Don't stay too long and keep a close eye on Shanzhi." Tuoba Jin instructed, and then told Luntu to assign a smart maid to take care of her.

Luntu nodded and immediately arranged people.

When Xiao Linglang followed Shan Zhi out, she was startled to see that the maid waiting at the door was the one who followed Madam Luntu. She clenched her sleeves with her fingers.

When the maid saw her coming, she still lowered her brows and eyes, with a gentle expression. Xiao Linglang did not find any trace of the previous viciousness in her face.

She puffed up her snowy cheeks and looked at the person standing in front of her.

"Nu Bixi, I meet the queen."

The familiar accent made Xiao Linglang's eyebrows jump slightly, and she looked at the woman in front of her vigilantly.

"The general originally ordered Cuiping to look after the queen, but she was scalded by the soup just now, so he arranged for a slave to come and take her place." Bixi said to Shanzhi. Shanzhi nodded and took note.

"Your Majesty, please follow me." After reporting, Bixi moved her eyes to the front without any delay. She took a step forward and took Xiao Linglang to the bathroom.

Xiao Linglang came here with the excuse of getting some fresh air. She felt very uncomfortable sitting there with a table full of men. She could barely understand half of what they were saying. It all sounded like noise to her ears.

The person in front of her actually spoke with the accent of Lin'an, which was completely different from the Mobei dialect that she was familiar with in the flower hall just now.

Xiao Linglang had doubts in her eyes and was a little nervous, but the girl just gave her a look, telling her not to be afraid and to follow her.

When she was almost at the toilet, Bixi stopped and did not do anything inappropriate.

Xiao Linglang didn't really want to go to the toilet, so she asked Shan Zhi who was standing beside her. Coincidentally, Shan Zhi suddenly had a stomachache.

"My queen, I have something urgent to attend to. Please go to Bixi to relax. I will follow you soon."

After she finished speaking to Xiao Linglang, she turned to look at Bixi with a serious expression, "Take good care of the queen. If there is anything wrong with the queen, the Wolf Lord will hold you accountable."

"Don't worry, sister. I will serve the queen well." Bi Xi replied gently.

Shan Zhi gave a few more instructions and left in a hurry.

Xiao Linglang turned around and walked towards Langfang with Bixi, and casually turned into a corner where no one noticed.

Xiao Linglang asked first: "Are you from Lin'an?"

"No." Bixi was no longer servile as before, and there was a look of dismay on her face. She put her hands behind her back and couldn't help but make a clicking sound.

No wonder the future prince consort would risk the crime of deceiving the emperor and escape by faking her death to get her out of the prison. This little girl was so stunningly beautiful.

"I was entrusted by someone to rescue the girl and return to Nanliang."

These light words made Xiao Linglang's eyes widen.

He murmured, "Entrusted by someone?"

Xing Qiu nodded, "The person I entrusted said that he accidentally fell into the water on the way to Beijing and was rescued by someone. I thought the other person was kind, but who would have thought that this person seemed to have a premeditated plan and secretly inquired about it. After obtaining the information, he took away the jade pendant given by the girl, stabbed him and threw him into the river."

Seeing the other party's worried look, she said, "Don't worry, if anything happened, I wouldn't be here."

"Brother Chang Bei..." Xiao Linglang was a little choked.

"He said that no matter what happened, the girl must take good care of herself and rest assured that he would definitely bring her back."

Xiao Linglang clenched her fists and pinched her palms tightly, "Why should I... trust you? You just looked at me fiercely."

"Don't you believe it?" Xing Qiu was a little amused and denied it, "When did I ever look at a girl fiercely?"

Thinking back on the details, it might have happened in the flower hall. No wonder the other party had been avoiding her.

"That's part of my job, don't mind it, girl."

As she spoke, she took out a letter from her arms and handed it to Xiao Linglang. Xiao Linglang took it and saw that it was written in Chang Bei's handwriting.

"what are you doing?"

Just as I finished reading it, the letter was taken away.

Xing Qiu burned the letter, blew out the fire, and then slowly replied: "This group of people are cautious, so they will destroy these dangerous things first. I won't lie to you. There are still a few brothers who are imprisoned. I need to exchange you."

Xiao Linglang's eyelashes trembled. Just as she was about to ask, she was pushed away by her husband. "Don't waste too much time. You are surrounded by people who are very cautious. It will be bad if you are targeted. After you go back for a few days, remember to take me over."

Xiao Linglang opened her lips to speak, but when she saw someone passing by, she immediately distanced herself and acted as if she didn't know the person.

"Why don't you go for a walk, Your Majesty?" After Shan Zhi had packed up, she came out and saw Xiao Linglang sitting in the pavilion not far away. She immediately trotted over.

"I'm afraid you won't be able to find me, and if we don't go back together, he will punish you." Xiao Linglang breathed a sigh of relief and stood up again just after sitting down.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for considering me." Shan Zhi was truly touched.

"Let's go back."

"Yeah." Shan Zhi nodded and followed.

Xing Qiu curled his lips, still with his brows lowered and eyes downcast, and sent Xiao Linglang back to the front yard. After watching her sit next to the man in the main seat, he glanced at her sideways before turning and leaving.

The action of the person beside him naturally did not escape Tuoba Jin's attention. He glanced in the direction of her line of sight and then looked away.

"Why did you take so long?"

"I walk slowly." Xiao Linglang said this without caring whether he believed it or not.

He suppressed his disgust, but now he had an extra layer of hatred. The jade pendant was with him? That was what the woman meant.

Xiao Linglang raised her eyes and looked at the person beside her, curling her fingers. Her mother did not mention the stabbing of Brother Chang Bei in the letter. Only when she found the jade pendant could she fully believe what that woman said.

She smiled softly at Tuoba Jin with curved lips and whispered, "I sat in the pavilion for a while. Is the Wolf Lord angry?"

"No, I'm worried about Yue'er." Tuoba Jin pointed at the food in front of her, "I'm also worried that Yue'er can't have a hot meal."

Xiao Linglang picked up the chopsticks. Everyone at the table was already drunk. They drank too quickly. She came back at the perfect time, neither too early nor too late.
