The ruthless prince and the enchanting concubine

Chapter 260 One step late

Sima Jindu, the general on the front line, was still stationed there, and he had sent messengers back to the Western Jin State several times, asking what was the best way to proceed next, whether to attack or retreat, but Helian Wuli never gave a decision. clear answer.

Just when Helian Wuli was frowning, the little eunuch who reported the incident hurriedly ran outside the palace, and hurriedly reported to him, saying that the national teacher had something to see.

Helian Wuli, who was in deep thought, was slightly startled when he heard the words. This shock seemed to be joyful, and even more like anticipation. For some reason, he always had a faint feeling in his heart. Ye Jige must have come to see him this time. They brought news about Feng Nanchao.

After Helian Wuli ordered the summoning, not long after, Ye Jige walked in from the outside, his face was still so dignified, as if endless anger was simmering in his heart, his brows were furrowed, his head was slightly lowered, and he came to Helian Wuli. In front of Lian Wuli, he fell down and knelt down.

"I bow down to the king."

Helian Wuli suppressed the excitement in his heart, and hurriedly helped Ye Jige up with both hands, the faint look of expectation was still on his face.

"National teacher, please hurry up, is it because Feng Nanchao finally couldn't bear it anymore, and there is news of the marriage?"

Ye Jige's face was gloomy, Helian Wuli's words made him speechless for a long time, and then he raised his fist again and said silently to Helian Wuli.

"Your Majesty, I came here this time for this purpose, but..." Ye Jige paused for a moment, peeping, Helian Wuli's complexion seemed to have changed a little, as if he had a premonition of something.

"National teacher, don't hesitate, tell me quickly, what happened? It's just what!"

Up to now, Ye Jige can no longer hide it.

"Your Majesty, I did not expect that Feng Nanchao would do this at all due to his miscalculation. Just now, I have just received the exact news that Feng Nanchao has asked Beiyuan Kingdom for help. I hope the emperor of Beiyuan Kingdom can send troops to come. To solve Fengnan's crisis, and it is said that Mu Lingxun, the emperor of Beiyuan Kingdom, has already agreed..."

"What!" Helian Wuli was shocked when he heard that, he would never have thought that the Beiyuan Congress and Feng Nanchao would unite...

However, Ye Jige's following words shocked Helian Wuli even more.

"Your Majesty, just listen to me. The Beiyuan Kingdom has made a clear request. Sending troops is fine, but Feng Nanchao must agree to their request. This request is...send Ning Ningyan to make peace with Mu Lingxun..."

One word uttered, like a thunderbolt exploded in Helian Wuli's heart, his eyes darkened, and he stepped back suddenly, fortunately he held the table, so he didn't fall down.

"National teacher, how do you say this! Did Feng Nanchao agree to the other party's conditions?" Helian Wuli raised his eyebrows, and two murderous eyes shot out of his eyes. No matter what, he couldn't accept the reality in front of him. .

"Hey..." Ye Jige let out a long sigh, "Your Majesty, Feng Nanchao has already agreed to Beiyuan Kingdom's marriage conditions, and just yesterday, under the escort of King Jing'an Nangong Jin, the marriage team has already set off. Ning Ningyan...is in the team."

For a moment, the world seemed to be collapsing, Helian Wuli stood speechless, clenched his molars, thinking whether all this was true or not...

"National teacher, do you know what you said... If you dare to deceive me, even if it is you, I will never let you go lightly!" Helian Wuli still seems to be a little disbelieving until now, with those angry eyes He stared at Ye Jige closely, hoping that he could give an explanation.

"Your Majesty, how dare I lie to you! This matter is absolutely true, I'm afraid that the team carrying Ning Ningyan is almost at the border of Beiyuan Kingdom..."

Anger, unwillingness, and impulsiveness occupied Helian Wuli's heart for a while, but in the next second, he put aside his previous respect for Ye Jige, and tightly grabbed Ye Jige's neck.

"How is this possible! Didn't you say the other day that this matter would develop towards the reunion of Zhen and Ning Yan? Why is this happening now? Tell me, tell me!" Helian Wuli's eyes were scarlet , shouting loudly.

Ye Jige had no reason to resist at this time, and could only bear Helian Wuli's every move silently. After all, the development of the matter up to now was indeed beyond his expectation.

"Your Majesty, I'm not doing well, so please punish me. It's just my fault that I didn't expect Feng Nanchao to take this path." Ye Jige closed his eyes powerlessly as he said.

"Ah!" Helian Wuli sighed, let go of his hand, and returned to the seat in a daze, resting his hands on his forehead, his mind was extremely messy.

On the first day, he and Ye Jige made a plan, in order to let Ning Ningyan return to his side in the name of marriage. Unexpectedly, in the end, Ning Ningyan became the queen of another country...

Above the hall, the two were silent for a long time, Ye Jige was silent, and Helian Wuli was even more melancholy. All this happened too suddenly and too cruelly.

Ning Yan, why did you make such a choice...

After a long time, Helian Wuli suppressed the anger in his heart and waved his hand at Ye Jige.

"National teacher, I was a little impulsive just now, go down and rest, don't come to see me again these few days, I am upset, I hope I can be alone for a while."

Hearing Helian Wuli's ruthless words, Ye Jige's heart was full of emotions, he wanted to say something to comfort him, but at this moment, he was so at a loss for words, he couldn't say a word.

He cupped his fists at Helian Wuli, and the fluttering robe retreated silently.

Sadness and loss filled Helian Wuli's eyes. He couldn't figure it out, nor could he figure out why Ning Yan made such a choice, and why Nangong Huan didn't make a move to seek peace with the Western Jin Dynasty.

Suddenly, a tribute inkstone was ruthlessly thrown to the corner of the wall, and the remaining ink inside splashed all over the ground. This broken inkstone did not at all ease the anger and sadness in Helian Wu's heart.

Now that things have happened, his mind has been confused, and he no longer knows what to do next, and the army that is still stationed at the front line has been thrown out of the sky, and he has long since lost his time to think.

Just like the broken tribute inkstone, Helian Wuli's heart is already fragmented at this moment, and he can no longer put it together...

……

In Jing'an Palace, it seemed that the tranquility of the past had returned. Nangong Jin sat alone in the room with an indifferent expression, still not recovering from the grief of sending Ning Yan away yesterday.

Just yesterday, after returning from the ten-mile long pavilion outside the imperial capital, Nangong Jin dragged a pair of empty skins to the palace to meet Nangong Huan, and told her that Ning Yan was on her way safely.It wasn't until he heard the news that Nangonghuan's mood completely calmed down. At the beginning, although he agreed to let Nangong Jin go to see Ning Yan, but he still had a slight worry in his heart, for fear that Nangong Jin would be impulsive again. Do something, but after listening to Nangong Jin's report and secretly observing Nangong Jin's lost face, Nangong Huan knew that Ning Yanyan had indeed been sent away.

In order to appease Nangong Jin, Nangong Huan specially gave Nangong Jin a month's vacation. During this period, let him adjust his emotions well. He doesn't have to worry about the affairs of the court, and he will discuss with other ministers.For this gift, Nangong Jin has no sense of gratitude, because at this time, even if he is given a year's vacation, he may not feel the slightest relief, let alone calm down his emotions.

He didn't know how long it would take to heal the pain of losing Ning Ningyan. It seemed that the pain would take the rest of his life to heal gradually.

After returning to Prince Jing'an's Mansion, Nangong Jin fell asleep and fell asleep, as if he was escaping from everything. Perhaps, he still had some hope. In that hazy dream, he might have a chance to meet Ning Yan again... …

Now, not long after Nangong Jin woke up, he has been sleeping on the bed for a day and a night. When he woke up, he habitually put his arms around his side. However, this feeling is indeed so empty, so lonely, this picture On the bed that carried so much joy between him and Ning Yan, now, only he was left coldly.

Ning Yanyan has indeed left him...

Nangong Jin got up without a word, didn't wash up, and didn't eat, but just sat there blankly, with the passage of time, a little aftertaste, a little bit of reminiscence, it was more like a little bit of healing in the heart. Huge wound.

Suddenly, without warning, there was a sound behind him, as if someone had opened a window.

Nangong Jin didn't look back, and he didn't want to look back, even if it was his enemy who came, even if he wanted to take his life, he didn't care about it, he could do whatever he wanted.

"My lord, what's going on!" Nangong Jin only felt a familiar voice coming from behind, loud and full of confidence.

When he turned his head, Shu Yan was standing behind him with an angry expression on his face. He was looking anxious, frowning coldly, and tightly holding the precious sword that he carried with him.

Seeing Shu Yan's shadow, Nangong Jin's heart felt dark again. Ning Yanyan once told him to deliver a letter to everyone on Linglong Mountain.

Due to his confused mood, Nangong Jin seemed to have forgotten about it, and he didn't remember it until Shu Yan's sudden visit.

Looking at Shu Yan's angry face, Nangong Jin didn't say anything, and after a long time, he spoke softly.

"So it's Shu Yan, you... sit down."

At this time, Shu Yan had already learned the news of Ning Yan's marriage. These days, he has been sending spies from Linglong Mountain to inquire about the situation and information of the imperial capital. The news of the marriage was reported on the mountain, and he didn't care to inform Yin Shuang and Feng Ming, so he came down the mountain overnight.

Unexpectedly, he was still a step late. At this moment, Ning Yanyan has been gone for a long time...
