The ruthless prince and the enchanting concubine

Chapter 308 A Little Trace

The sky had already brightened, and Nangong Jin's brigade set off again, but this time the direction of advance was not towards Fengnan Dynasty, but Beiyuan Kingdom.

Nangong Jin sat on the horseback and led the army forward slowly. At this moment, although he made the decision to return to Beiyuan Kingdom, he was still very unhappy in his heart.

Nangong Jin basically did not fall asleep last night, thinking over and over about the matter in front of her, weighing the pros and cons.In the end, he decided to focus on the overall situation. After all, if he really returned to Fengnan Dynasty in such a negative spirit, he might really give Nangonghuan a chance, which would cause immeasurable consequences. His father let him stay in Beiyuan to expand his power. is the most correct choice.

This kind of thinking is only one of the reasons. The reason why Nangong Jin decided to turn back was because of Ning Yan. Although he still feels deeply about Ning Yan's childbirth for Mu Lingxun, after thinking about it, he It seems that leaving like this is not the best choice.

After all, Ning Ningyan came to Beiyuan Country because of his letting go, or in other words, he also felt sorry for Ning Yan in this matter...

Deep in Nangong Jin's heart, leaving may really be a momentary choice of anger, and he really doesn't want to let go of this feeling.

Although he had this thought in his heart, his mood was still extremely complicated at the moment, and he seemed to be avoiding something intentionally or unintentionally.

The silver armor rang, Nangong Jin turned around immediately, called the herald, and told him to pass the order, so that the soldiers should not worry, the situation is different from before, and it is not a bad idea to slow down the marching speed.He didn't want to return to Zichang so anxiously.And all of this is just to find a child who has nothing to do with him.

……

Under the service of several maids, Ning Yan, who hadn't woken up for a long time, just finished dressing.

After a night's rest, Ning Ningyan's exhausted body and mind seemed to have calmed down somewhat. Although her heart was still grieving for the loss of her child, her worried expression became much calmer.

How could she not know that being impatient can't solve the problem, all she can do now is to wait silently, waiting for some valuable news from Nangong Jin's subordinates.

"Princess, the servants have prepared breakfast for you, you should put your body first, use some." The maid respectfully said to Ning Yan while carefully putting the jewelry into the silver box.

Hearing this, Ning Ningyan's Liu Mei frowned slightly. Although she hadn't eaten for a long time, she still didn't feel the slightest appetite at the moment.

"Forget it, I don't have an appetite, you guys go down, and I'll eat at noon." Ning Yan looked indifferent, and said softly, the maids were just slightly dazed, but they didn't dare to say anything, who Can you not understand her mood at this time?
Noisy noises were made, several maids bent down and retreated towards the palace gate, the red gate opened, and it happened that two armored soldiers were standing outside the palace gate, and these people were just about to come to see Ning Yan.

"Princess, my subordinates are here to pay my respects." The leading general clasped his fists and said to Ning Yan inside,

Ning Ningyan looked sideways affectionately, and there seemed to be a light in her eyes. The two who came were the generals who were ordered to investigate the Wei family.

Could there be news so soon?Ning Ningyan was puzzled, and the next second, she stood up and walked to the palace gate.

"The two generals came in to talk." After speaking, Ning Yan waved to the maids again, telling them to retreat as soon as possible.

As Ning Yan walked into Fu'an Palace, the leading general knelt down on one knee, and there seemed to be a hint of joy on his face.

"Princess, you asked your subordinates to investigate. Your subordinates have already investigated clearly, and I am here to report today."

"Oh?" Ning Yan was taken aback for a moment, she didn't expect the investigation to go so fast, and in the next second, her thoughts flew to Nangong Jin.

As expected of the subordinates trained by Nangong Jin, the efficiency of doing things is so high. Although Ning Yan looks cold, she can't help admiring in her heart.From this point of view, Ning Yan seems to admire Nangong Jin a little bit, and admires how capable the generals he trained are.I also admire his ability to guide and employ people.

"I didn't expect the two generals to investigate so quickly. If you have any news, tell me quickly," Ning Yan asked lightly, suppressing the excitement in her heart.

The leading general raised his head, "Princess, my subordinates dare not neglect the matter you have explained. The subordinates were not idle all day yesterday and last night, and sent people to listen carefully. Now the Wei family's house is already full of people. Going to the room is empty. These people seem to be afraid of being implicated because of the subjugation of Beiyuan. The subordinates did not get any news there, but the subordinates investigated and found out the locations of the remaining Wei family forces. There are seven in total, namely ... According to my subordinates, two of the places are more likely to hide the young prince. One is the house of Wei Donghai's cousin, which is far away from the center of Zichang City. However, they seem to be preparing to leave this place. Another place is the ancestral hall of the Wei family in the west of the city. The subordinates guessed that the young prince was also taken there. As for the branches of the Wei family, the subordinates have also investigated and found out that before the fall of Zichang, these people They have all fled in all directions, and there is no further news."

The general spoke in great detail, and reported everything that Ning Yan asked him to investigate. Ning Yan seemed to be quite satisfied with the result, nodding her head from time to time.

"Well, according to the general, there are seven places in total, and you just mentioned six, so where is the rest?" Ning Yan asked carefully, not letting go of any clues.

The leading general clasped his fists again.

"There is also the Wang's Manor, which has been deserted for a long time. It was not owned by the Wei family, but it was only bought by Wei Donghai last year. However, it is said that there has been no one living there, so the subordinates feel that it should not be there. It's very possible..."

"Oh..." Ning Yanyan responded lightly, her thoughts racing.

"In addition, according to your instructions, my concubine, the brothers who guarded the sky prison last night moved Mu Lingxun to another place overnight. The person who is locked in the cell now is just a substitute wearing Mu Lingxun's clothes. If someone really robs They won't get anything if they go to prison instead of prison." The general suddenly remembered this matter, which was arranged by Ning Yan overnight last night.

"Well, very good, thank you for your hard work, these three places, please take time to have someone investigate as soon as possible, and try to find out the facts as much as possible." Listening to the general's detailed report, Ning Yan knew it well.

"If there is nothing else, the two of us will retreat." Seeing that Ning Ningyan seemed to have fallen silent, the general stood up and said goodbye.

Suddenly, Ning Ningyan's dark eyes flashed, as if she remembered something.

"By the way... my lord, when will he come back?"

The two generals broke out in sweat when they heard it. The cavalryman who delivered the letter came back last night and told them how angry Nangong Jin was when he saw the letter. For fear of worrying about Ning Ningyan, none of them dared to tell her the news.

"My lord... the lord, uh, back to the wangfei. After the cavalry came back last night, he made it clear that the lord seems to be delayed by something in the army, so... I'm afraid he will come back tomorrow." The two generals said embarrassingly. He didn't dare to look up into Ning Yan's eyes.

Condensing Yan watched the two generals falter, and frowned slightly. How could she not know what trivial matters were involved?It was just Nangong Jin's excuse. If Nangong Jin really wanted to come back, he would have already entered Zichang by now.

Suddenly, a feeling of anger surged in Ning Ningyan's heart, and her eyes subconsciously held back the displeasure.

Nangong Jin, do you take me so seriously now?Or do you not want to come back at all?

Although the anger in her heart fluctuated, Ning Ningyan's face did not show anything. After a slight pause, she waved her hand.

"I see, you go down and rest, I will find you again if there is anything."

The two embarrassing generals seemed to be relieved when they heard the words, they hurriedly stood up from the ground, cupped their fists towards Ning Ningyan, and then walked out of Fu'an Palace quickly without looking back, wiping the cold sweat on their foreheads as they walked. My heart is full of guilty conscience...

After dismissing the two generals, Ning Yan felt uncomfortable.After a while, the anger towards Nangong Jin in her heart still did not abate.

Nangong Jin, how did you and I become like this...

Ning Ningyan didn't understand, and was even a little confused. Now for Nangong Jin, she didn't know whether she loved Nangong Jin more or was more angry.

The messy thoughts seemed to make Ning Yan feel a little upset, she got up gently, and she walked towards the phoenix bed, maybe a short rest would make her feel better, but she didn't understand whether the matter about Nangong Jin was true So easily erased from her mind.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, Ning Ningyan quietly looked sideways, and her bare hands gently slid across the pillow. Unknowingly, endless sadness flooded her heart.

Her lovely child should have been here, but now it is empty...

Ning Ningyan sighed, preventing her from thinking about it anymore, at this moment, her mind turned to what the two generals said just now.

Three places... Where will her child be taken?Lightly thinking, Ning Ningyan's eyes were a little steadfast, as if she had fallen into boundless contemplation.

Without any warning, a whoosh sound came into Ning Ningyan's ears. Although she was absent-minded, she was still keenly aware of the abnormal sound. The next second, she subconsciously dodged, jumped up from the bed, and turned around to the side.

An arrow with carved feathers passed by Ning Ningyan's ear, and was firmly nailed to the carved bedpost of the phoenix bed...

Ning Ningyan's eyes suddenly showed a trace of sharpness, in front of her eyes, the carved feather arrow was shaking violently, and a piece of paper was tied at the end of the arrow.

Without thinking any more, she grabbed the note in her hand and tore it off the arrow shaft. In the next second, she flew out and rushed to the window. The window lattice was originally open. Looking through the window, I saw a black shadow flickering in the distance, and then disappeared in an instant.

Without any hesitation, Ning Yan jumped out of the window and landed gracefully on the ground.Now that she has recovered her internal strength, since she saw the whereabouts of the unexpected guest, she must catch up and never let him escape.

This person passed the book with an arrow, and it is very likely that she is inextricably linked with her kidnapped child...
