Chapter 119 Each one has their own thoughts (2)
Zhao Zimu looked at him for a long time this time. After scanning him, she squatted with a blank expression. With narrowed eyes, she pulled the cloth off his leg. Then, she broke the arrow that had been stuck in his calf and wrapped the injury hastily with a clean cloth.
She wasn’t a doctor. Situ Yuanxiao’s injury could only be treated after they return to the camp.
The slender fingers quickly and nimbly tied a knot on Situ Yuanxiao’s leg. Situ Yuanxiao was silent for a moment and then said, “Thank you.”
Zhao Zimu stood up, turned and left. However, there was a mysterious smile at the corners of her mouth. She walked silently to a distance.
Situ Yuanxiao might never know how he got the injury on his leg, but Zhao Zimu knew because she did it.
When the battle was about to end, she secretly shot an arrow at Situ Yuanxiao. Presumably, aside from Zhao Zimu no one could do this.
After this battle, Zhao Zimu didn’t want to see Situ Yuanxiao appear in front of her again and kicking lively. Whether it was this person’s status or power, he was far above her. If Chen Jin continues to make arrangement like this, everything Zhao Zimu does would become Situ Yuanxiao’s wedding dress.
Situ Yuanxiao was her superior and he was her enemy. Everything she did would become Situ Yuanxiao’s stepping stone to his glory and become an act of adversary.
Therefore, Zhao Zimu must pull Situ Yuanxiao down, so that she could keep going up and achieve her goal.
Although everyone was a military personnel and had to fight alongside each other on the battlefield, but it was very despicable and gloomy to frame colleagues behind their backs.
However, Zhao Zimu not only helped him through the difficulties, she also saved his life. It could be considered she was his lifesaver. So, there was no pressure on Zhao Zimu when she shot an arrow at Situ Yuanxiao.
Situ Yuanxiao’s injury on the leg was enough for him to rest for a month or two. Princes were all delicate and precious. Who would dare to let him go to the battlefield after being injured? The war would be over after a month or two. Situ Yuanxiao would not have time to do anything by then.
Therefore, Zhao Zimu shot an arrow at him without hesitation.
Not long after the battle ended, Zhao Zimu’s face changed again. She immediately put her head on the ground with a bit of nervousness and listened to the movement from the ground. Not long after, the group hid again.
Because Zhao Zimu heard it correctly. In addition to Xueyan’s tribe, another group of people came here. Now, it was too late to leave. It was better to lie in an ambush again.
Not long after, Chen Jing came here with a few thousand people. After seeing the sight here, he was shocked and ordered the soldiers to look for Zhao Zimu and Situ Yuanxiao. At this time, Zhao Zimu and the others slowly walked out from elsewhere.
It turned out that Chen Jin let the two of them ambush the Xiongnu here, but Situ Yuanxiao is a prince after all. Chen Jin wouldn’t be able to shirk the blame if something really happened. So, after a good some time, he let Chen Jing led soldiers here to help them.
However, what Chen Jin didn’t expect was that the battle here ended so quickly. Also, because of this, an unexpected mishap almost happened.
Chen Jing silently listened to their story and cold sweat appeared on his forehead. If they didn’t let Zhao Zimu follow Situ Yuanxiao or if he came too late, then, all the people here would stay here.
After having thought about it with lingering fear, the group was about to withdraw. Unexpectedly, Situ Yuanxiao made a ruckus again, saying that he was seriously injured and that Zhao Zimu had to personally take care of him before they could go back.
The so-called personal care meant that she had to serve him personally. Feed him water and food and also including riding together.
Chen Jing couldn’t help but be stunned for a moment. Then, he looked at Zhao Zimu who was walking over. When Situ Yuanxiao told her his reason, Zhao Zimu suddenly felt that the arrow that was stuck in his calf should’ve been in his brain. Like that, Situ Yuanxiao wouldn’t be standing here and talking.
He, Situ Yuanxiao, hurt his leg and not his arms. There was really no need to care for him like he mentioned.
Zhao Zimu looked up and down at Situ Yuanxiao. The gaze made Situ Yuanxiao and Chen Jing scared.
After a while, Zhao Zimu said, “Zhao Zhong’s martial arts is simple and can’t take on such an important task. If something goes wrong on the way, this humble one wouldn’t be able to escape censure. Asking Your Highness to please have mercy on me.”
Chen Jin asked Zhao Zimu to follow Situ Yuanxiao’s orders. Hence, she also had to bow her head sometimes, otherwise, it would be considered a violation of the military order and she would be severely punished by Chen Jin.
Chen Jin, what is this old fox thinking? Zhao Zimu couldn’t help but think with narrowed eyes.

Wow what a clever ZZ to shoot SY to get him out of the action 🤩 But what sucks is that Gen Jin knows SY is an idiot so he’s using ZZ to prop up and protect the stupid spoiled prince so he (GenJin) won’t be blamed for SY dying under his watch😤 SYs military service is to gain experience and merits not actually suffer, get hurt or heaven forbid die 🤨
Thanks for the chapter and I look forward to how ZZ sets them straight
