Chapter 77: First Stop, Rong City
In the past few days, such a large group of people had traveled hundreds of miles. The fast-marching speed was no problem for the well-trained imperial army, but it was a big problem for Lin Qing and the other little girl.
These two people; one had been pampered and was noble, the other was a very real little woman. How could they bear this?
On the sixth day, when the group stopped for a rest, Lin Qing couldn't tolerate it anymore. The high-speed and jolting journey made him so dizzy that his whole body was leaning on Zhao Zimu. However, when he faced those soldiers, he immediately recovered as if nothing had happened.
Everyone thought that this precious and cruel superior would definitely lose his temper because of such a fast journey, that many people would suffer again because of him and maybe even innocent people would be tortured by him again. All the soldiers were disturbed. Zhang Xin was no exception.
It was understandable for them to think like that. Here was not the capital. One couldn't always have good clothes, good food, high-quality beds and soft pillows. If it was any other dignified person, they would not have a good temper once they have lived this kind of life. The better ones would lose their temper and torture others while the worse ones would directly slow down the marching speed of the whole group and indirectly affect the outcome of the whole war.
Lin Qing's reputation had always been bad. All the soldiers were thinking, how come this Lord Qiansui didn't cause any trouble? Even Situ Yuanxiao and Chen Jing felt that Lin Qing would definitely not be able to bear the suffering, would lose his temper and vent it out one everyone. By then, he would fortunately lose all the hearts of the people who follow him. They can then take away the people in his hands. By then, it would be a thousand times easier to deal with him.
However, what everyone didn't expect was that nothing had happened these days. Aside from Lin Qing's face being a bit pale, he didn't do anything else, let alone, get angry because of such things. While everyone was surprised, their views of the powerful eunuch also changed a bit.
After stopping this day, Lin Qing lay on Zhao Zimu's body. Zhao Zimu stroked his back with her hand and said worried, "Should we le them slow down the pace? You are like this, presumably, before we arrive at Northern Liang, you would've already fallen down."
Zhao Zimu looked at him worriedly. Lin Qing shook his head and buried his pale faces in her knees again.
The soldiers were resting and getting rice from the pot. A guard of the Prefecture of Arrest also came to ask Lin Qing if he wanted to get off the carriage for a meal. After Zhao Zimu sent that person away, she fed Lin Qing some warm water. Then, she let his whole body lean on her. She gently rubbed his uncomfortable abdomen and after he unknowingly closed his eyes, she got out of the carriage.
By a big tree, Ling Er was sitting in a sorry state under the tree with an ashen face. On hand rested on her shoulder, but her feet couldn't move anymore. Her feet felt heavy as if they were filled with lead. If her clenched hands were spread out now, you would find out that there were scars all over it. Her inner thighs had also been bruised.
Zhao Zimu had given her a horse and let her keep up with them. She wanted Ling Er to retreat because of difficulty.
However, she didn't expect that Ling Er was so stubborn. She obviously didn't know how to ride a horse, but still sat on the horse, rode it and followed the large group for a few days. The posture went from weird to smooth after following for a few days. During this period, she had been thrown into the air several times, but each time she preserved through a daunting experience without danger.
