My Princess and Crown Prince Are Revived
Chapter 372 Return to Tongzhou

Chapter 372: Chapter 372 Return to Tongzhou

"Spare you? When you committed all those misdeeds, why did you not think of today?"

Feng Shan’s body was full of intense malevolence, appearing like a furious beast.

If it were not for the usefulness of keeping Tu Leda alive, he would surely have killed this despicable creature by now.

"It was all the eldest prince who forced me to do it, it’s not my fault, I was merely following his orders. Third Prince, I realize my mistakes now, I truly do. Please, I beg you to forgive me."

Tu Leda cried bitterly, his entire demeanour utterly dishevelled.

Feng Shan had no patience to listen to his worthless chatter.

With a swing of his blade, quickly, both the tendons in Tu Leda’s hands and feet were severed.

He lay on the ground like a lump of rotten meat, barely clinging to life.

"Yan Lin, are you alright?".

On this side, Chu Baihan could finally catch her breath, her gaze filled with concern as she looked at Yan Lin.

She checked him from head to toe to make sure he was truly unharmed; only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.

But when she lifted her head and caught Yan Lin’s gaze, she noticed the distress and frustration brimming within his dark eyes.

"Yan Lin, you..."

"I apologize, for I have failed to protect you adequately," he said.

Yan Lin carefully pulled her into his embrace.

He was so cautious, as if fearing that any sudden move might hurt her.

His voice was hoarse and broken.

He was full of regret now.

If he had not recklessly put himself in danger, she would not have rushed here from Tongzhou due to concerns for his safety.

As soon as he spoke, Chu Baihan understood his thoughts.

She shook her head vigorously in his embrace, then said with a firm tone, "Yan Lin, I came to save you of my own free will. There is no question of anyone being a burden to the other. If we really must account for things, it was I who endangered you just now..."

"You did not burden me."

Yan Lin forcefully interrupted her.

Chu Baihan gave a slight huff; "Fine, I did not burden you, so you should also stop speaking so regretfully."

"Very well, I shall not speak of it," Yan Lin replied.

Yan Lin took a deep breath and then continued to hold her in his embrace.

Although it had been just a few days since they had parted, his longing for her had become unbearable.

Shi Jing and Feng Shan stood not far away.

Shi Jing’s expression was somber, but soon, he came to terms with it.

After all that had transpired, he was gradually understanding why, after witnessing the events in Yan Country, the Princess still so firmly chose Yan Lin.

Because... he was worth it.

Feng Shan awkwardly turned his head away.

He disliked Yan Lin so much, yet in the end, it was he who had been saved by him.

His feelings were indeed... both powerless and complicated.

"Alright, now that matters here have been settled, we must hurry to Tongzhou; who knows what the situation there might be like."

Chu Baihan thought of this, and her heart could not calm down.

Although she had made quite a few preparations before leaving Tongzhou,

her heart was still very anxious.

"Let’s go, I will return to Tongzhou with you," Yan Lin said briskly.

He nodded quickly.

After speaking, he then picked up Chu Baihan in his arms.

Chu Baihan was momentarily surprised, but she showed no intention of resisting and instead stayed docile in his embrace.

"Sister..."

Seeing this, Feng Shan ran over and called out to her anxiously.

The next moment, Yan Lin’s cold gaze swept over.

"Are you that fool from Beihai Country?" he spoke aloofly.

"You, you’re the fool," Feng Shan, infuriated, clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.

"To be used as a target by your own father and elder brother without even knowing it, yet still trying to kill me, what else if not a fool?"

Yan Lin’s tone became increasingly sarcastic.

Feng Shan clenched his teeth so hard it hurt.

He wanted to retort, but he simply couldn’t find the words to do so.

"Shi Jing, take him back and tie him up. After the battle is over, I will settle accounts with him," Yan Lin commanded Shi Jing directly.

Yan Lin had directly given Shi Jing orders.

Feng Shan dared to scheme against his people, so he must bear the consequences.

Shi Jing: "..."

Was a certain Prince Yan getting a bit too familiar with ordering him around?

His face showed reluctance, but in the end, he quickly walked over and tied up Feng Shan.

After spending the last two days together, he couldn’t help but feel admiration for Yan Lin.

Well, what harm was there in obeying Yan Lin’s orders?

The other party was the princess’s prince consort, he was loyal to the princess, so wasn’t that loyalty to Yan Lin as well?

With that thought, Shi Jing felt relieved.

Meanwhile, Feng Shan hung his head, showing an annoyed expression.

In fact, he still had some strength left.

If he had resisted, Shi Jing wouldn’t have been able to tie him up so easily.

But he really didn’t want to resist...

He looked up at Yan Lin and Chu Baihan’s departing figures, feeling very oppressed.

He still had to atone for his sister.

He couldn’t cause more trouble, or else he would never receive his sister’s forgiveness in this lifetime.

...

"Miss Jian, you truly have a divine judgment. During the day, those bastards from Dongli Country were ambushed by us for their food supplies, and indeed, they came to attack us at night," Ali said to Jian Yun with excitement in his voice.

Jian Yun wore a strange outfit, her head wrapped in something that covered both her hair and face.

The fire had already started around them.

But they were not affected.

"It’s not that I have divine judgment, it’s the princess who has divine judgment. She had predicted that Dongli Country’s people would come tonight to raid. The food supplies were already moved, those who wanted to start fires can just burn to death," Jian Yun said sharply.

Ali looked at the determined expression on her face, his heart filling with more admiration.

Having heard that Miss Jian, when she was in Yan Country, was a daughter of an aristocratic family, he had not expected her to have the same boldness as the princess.

"This attire of the princess is truly amazing. After I put it on, the fire didn’t touch my body at all," Ali looked down at the clothes he was wearing, then continued with an admiring tone.

Upon hearing this, a glimmer of brightness flashed across Jian Yun’s eyes.

"Naturally, anything the princess does is meant to protect people," she said with a hint of pride in her voice.

"However, the princess did warn that this fabric can block the flames only for a short time. The temperature of the big fire can still affect us. So we can’t stay long," Jian Yun said solemnly.

Thinking of this, her tone became serious.

Both she and Ali’s cheeks were bright red, and the skin under their clothes was also starting to hurt.

They quickly walked out.

At that moment, Zhu Xinyue, wearing the same type of clothes, clumsily ran over.

"Just now, I knocked an escaping enemy soldier unconscious with a stone," she patted her chest, her eyes expectantly looking at Ali and Jian Yun.

Jian Yun knew she wanted to be praised...

With a light laugh, Jian Yun nodded and said, "Miss Zhu is very brave, we admire you a lot."

Being praised, Zhu Xinyue’s eyes brightened.

If she had a tail behind her, it would probably be wagging up to the sky by now.

But soon, her smile disappeared.

Because she heard Jian Yun say—
