The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 1801

Chapter 1801: 884 Detoxification (Second Update)

Gu Jiao and the Black Wind King traversed through the night, arriving at Quyang City near dawn.

Quyang City was in the process of post-war reconstruction, and the streets were filled with common folk who came to help.

The people had long remembered this young leader dressed in red battle attire and dark iron armor, and upon seeing her enter the city, they greeted her.

When she first came to Quyang City, the people regarded her and the Hei Fengqi as rebels, fearing and avoiding them, but now their perspective had changed drastically.

Gu Jiao had urgent matters to attend to and did not linger, nodding slightly before riding swiftly past.

"Has the young commander just returned from another battle?"

"Covered in blood... is she injured?"

"What a pity..."

The people were deeply concerned.

One of the guards had to stand out to dispel the rumors: "Commander Xiao is fine, that’s the enemy’s blood, rest assured, Commander Xiao possesses unrivaled skills and will surely come out of all battles unharmed!"

These words were a bit exaggerated.

However, after a great war, with everything needing revitalization, such strengthening of self-belief was indeed necessary.

Upon hearing that the young commander was safe, the people relaxed and continued with their work, their morale even higher than before.

Xuanyuan Qi was placed in the Hei Fengqi’s infirmary, and Ye Qing guarded him intently.

When Gu Jiao dismounted and arrived at the entrance of the barracks, Ye Qing was just coming out with a bunch of replaced bandages.

As the curtain was lifted, Ye Qing caught sight of Gu Jiao approaching.

By this time, the stars and the moon had disappeared, the sun has yet to rise, and the horizon was a faint gray.

The fiery red battle attire brought forth a striking hue under the dim light of dawn.

She pushed up the visor of her helmet, revealing a young, innocent face.

Just by looking at this face, it was difficult to associate her with the ruthless commander of the Hei Fengqi.

No matter how many people she had killed or how many battles she had fought, her eyes always retained a pure and clear brightness.

Of course, she was sufficiently composed as well.

Ye Qing regained his senses and greeted her: "You’re back? I heard you went to fight in Jin Country, how’s the situation?"

Gu Jiao replied: "I left when we were attacking Xi City."

She didn’t say how the battle was going, but since she could come here, it showed that the situation at the front wasn’t difficult.

Ye Qing placed the bandages into a nearby designated basket and turned to ask Gu Jiao: "Are you here to see the general?"
