299 - Wrath 1
Yuan Xiuyue's pupils were wide open, and she gasped!
When she raised her eyes, she caught a glimpse of Yuan Chenghai leaving the tent wearing a robe, her heart trembled, and she wanted to break free from the hand of the person behind her, but the next moment, she suddenly felt a pain in her neck, and her eyes went dark. , lost the last trace of consciousness...

Stepping out from the tent, Yuan Chenghai quickly walked around to the back of the tent with a condensed expression.

However, when he walked to the back of the tent and looked around, he only felt the night wind was majestic, his eyes were pitch black, and there was no one at all.His eyes were like knives, he frowned and walked two steps forward, but he still couldn't see anyone, only a wild cat screamed twice, and fled away.

in the tent.

Empress Dowager An was dressed in tulle, with black hair scattered on the side of her pillow, nestling quietly under the brocade quilt.

Looking up, seeing Yuan Chenghai come back, she frowned and asked, "Is anyone there?"

"It's just a stray cat!"

Yuan Chenghai quickly took off his outer robe, revealing his strong and burly body, gently squeezed the Empress Dowager An, then lifted the brocade quilt and got into the brocade quilt again.

"How come there are wild cats?" The big eyes without make-up were rippling, and Empress Dowager An was far away in her thoughts.

"Do not worry!"

The next day, early in the morning.

When Yuan Xiuyue woke up again, she was on the warm couch in the sleeping tent.

Inside the tent, it was as warm as spring, which made her suddenly feel that last night was just a nightmare!

What did she see last night?
Thoughts were spinning in her mind, Yuan Xiuyue's ears were burning hot when she thought of the profligate scene she had seen, but her face became extremely ugly.

Her father and Queen Mother An, how could they act so recklessly?

"woke up?"

A gentle and gentle voice rang in his ears, interrupting Yuan Xiuyue's troubled thoughts. It was... a voice that belonged exclusively to Nangong Xiaoran.

Gently, she turned her head to look at Nangong Xiaoran who was sitting in front of the couch. Seeing that he was dressed in white and still had that habitual smile on his face, Yuan Xiuyue wanted to lightly hook her lips, but she was still unable to do so. He asked aloud, "How long have I been asleep?"

"Not too long, just one night!"

Seeing Yuan Xiuyue was about to sit up, Nangong Xiao Ran stretched out his hand to support him, then turned his head and said to Du Sheng: "Pass the meal!"

"Yes!"

Responding respectfully, Du Sheng walked out of the bed tent.

Frowning tightly, Yuan Xiuyue raised her eyes to look at Nangong Xiaoran, stroking the back of her neck that was still aching, "You saved me last night?"

Hearing this, Nangong Xiaoran lowered his eyelids slightly, and sighed softly: "It's cold outside, you're not in good health, remember not to run around again in the future!"

Hearing his evasive answer, Yuan Xiuyue smiled wryly, but seeing Du Sheng coming in with breakfast, she said coldly to Du Sheng, "Put down the breakfast and go out!"

Hearing the sound, Du Sheng was slightly taken aback.

Looking up at Nangong Xiaoran, seeing him still sitting there calmly, Du Sheng gave Yuan Xiuyue a low respect, and then backed out again.

"Their business..."

Looking up at Nangong Xiaoran, Yuan Xiuyue asked word by word: "You knew about it a long time ago, didn't you?"

Hearing this, Nangong Xiao Ran did not respond immediately, but only lowered his eyebrows to look at the memorial in his hand.

Yuan Xiuyue kept looking at him, as if she wouldn't give up until she got the answer she wanted.

After a long silence, Nangong Xiaoran finally laughed helplessly: "Some things are very dirty and messy, but even if I know it, I can't do anything about it."

Finally, after hearing Nangong Xiaoran's answer, Yuan Xiuyue couldn't help but wryly smiled and shivered.

"My father, and your mother..."

The wry smile turned into a smile, and Yuan Xiuyue finally couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.

Yes!

Empress Dowager An is Nangong Xiaoran's biological mother, even if he knew that there was such a relationship between her and Yuan Chenghai, he couldn't say it out loud.

But then again.

Her father, perhaps, did not love his wife and children, nor his daughter, but only loved Queen Mother An.

As long as the Empress Dowager An does the mediocre thing with him and let him abandon his wife and son, what's the difficulty? !

However, this is too absurd for her and Nangong Xiaoran!

Staring at her ever-changing pale face, Nangong Xiaoran narrowed his eyes slightly, and stroked the top of her head: "There are some things that cannot be changed, so don't think about them. For now, you just need to remember and take good care of your body."

"I will!"

With her head lowered, Yuan Xiuyue murmured softly, but quickly raised her eyebrows and looked at Nangong Xiaoran: "Now the emperor is about to lead an army, just to wipe out the An clan. I can see that the real power of the An clan , in fact, it is in the hands of the Queen Mother and me, what is the master going to do next?"

She didn't have to ask about Yuan Chenghai and Empress Dowager An's matter, but this matter was imminent, so she had no choice but to ask him!
"Everything is up to me, you don't have to worry about these things, I can make my own decisions!" His eyes darkened slightly, not wanting Yuan Xiuyue to worry about anything, Nangong Xiaoran lightly pursed his thin lips and stood up, bringing the food on the low table to the bed: "Let's eat first!"

Looking at the food in front of her, Yuan Xiuyue raised her face, and looked at Nangong Xiaoran with bright eyes, just like how she looked in An Guohou Mansion many years ago: "Sir, if you don't tell me, I won't worry about it." Is it gone?"

Staring at Yuan Xiuyue's bright eyes, Nangong Xiaoran's dark pupils flickered slightly, but after a moment, his expression was calm: "I don't say it because I think these things are not worth paying attention to." Mention, what I want to say is, I will let you live, let you live well!"

"gentlemen!"

Looking up at Nangong Xiaoran, Yuan Xiuyue's red lips moved slightly, but she knew that he would not tell her anything, in the end he never said a word.

Now, her child is just one month old.

She also wants to live, to live well.

However, before the heart-piercing pain hit, she would become extremely frightened.

Nangong Haoling always said that she was very courageous.

In fact, she is very timid.

Really small!

She is more afraid of death than anyone else!
Because, now that she has a loved one and a child of her own, she is no longer as lonely as she was when she was a child. She... wants to live!

Liguo, outside the city of Chuping, in the camp of the Li army.

As the curtain was raised, a gust of cold wind invaded the tent, blowing the lamps on the table, making them bright and dark.

Seeing this, Ji Heng hurried forward and blocked it with the whisk in his hand.

Looking up at Ji Heng, Nangong Haoling's thick eyebrows were tightly knitted.

In just less than a month, his originally innocent and elegant handsome face has become visibly thinner, that handsome face like a sculpture, not elegant, but more resolute, only his tightly pursed thin lips reveal a deep The cool air.

"Is something wrong?"

Looking up at Ji Heng, Nangong Haoling's eyes flickered slightly, but they were so empty that no trace of emotion could be seen.Slightly lowering his eyes, he looked at the map on the table again, his face calm and calm.

"emperor!"

Putting the letter in his hand carefully in front of Nangong Haoling, Ji Heng said softly, "It's a letter from the empress..."

Before Ji Heng could finish speaking, Nangong Haoling snatched the letter from his hand.

Seeing this, Ji Heng didn't make a sound, turned around and poured a cup of hot tea, and placed it on the table in front of him.

The letter that Nangong Haoling read was written by Yuan Xiuyue when he was in the small village, and he entrusted Duguchen to send someone to deliver it to him at regular intervals.

But other than this, Nangong Haoling didn't know about it.

The letter is not too long.

Just talking about Yuan Xiuyue's recent situation!
Looking at the familiar small script on the letter, Nangong Haoling's heart was slightly relaxed, but he never put the letter down, just read it over and over again, as if he wanted to find Yuan Xiuyue's figure between the lines.

She said that now she is by Duguchen's side, as long as she doesn't think of him, she will live a good life!
Tell him not to read!

But, can he do it without reading?
Asking himself, but smiling foolishly, Nangong Haoling put the letter away carefully, then raised his eyes lightly, and asked Ji Heng: "Who sent this letter?"

When Ji Heng heard the words, he hurriedly replied respectfully: "Back to the emperor, it's Lei Luo!"

Pursing her thin lips lightly, Nangong Haoling sighed softly: "It seems that she is really with Duguchen."

Even though everything can be false, but the letter in his hand at this moment must be from her hand, and it is also her usual tone when speaking to him!

Holding the hand of the letter, he tightened it slightly, and said to Ji Heng: "Send to Dark Cloud!"

"The slave is going!"

Ji Heng quickly responded, and went out of the tent to spread the dark cloud.

After a while, dark clouds entered the tent.

Looking up at Nangong Haoling who was turned away, he respectfully bowed in front of the table and said in a low voice: "Your subordinates will see the emperor!"

"Free gift!"

Turning around slightly, Nangong Haoling put the letter on the table, stared at An Yun with sharp eyes, and said to An Yun in a low voice: "The empress said in the letter that now she has returned to Nanyue with Yue Wang, But... Now that the Emperor of Chu has accepted my request to use troops to attack Yue, he has also ordered the General of Chu State Ruan Haoran to personally lead his troops to the border of our country. I am worried that if this matter gets to Nanyue, someone will harm the Queen. Now I order you to leave for Nanyue immediately, and you must protect the queen's life!"

Lifting his eyes slightly, he only briefly met Nangong Haoling's eyes, and then lowered his head again. An Yun couldn't ignore the oppressive feeling Nangong Haoling brought to him at this moment, so he had to bow and respond: "The emperor's meaning belongs to This subordinate understands, this subordinate will swear to the death to defend the empress!"

Hearing this, Nangong Haoling nodded lightly, turned around and walked towards the inner sleeping tent.

Watching Nangong Haoling enter the bedroom, Ji Heng beside him couldn't help but look gloomy and worried.

Originally, when Nangong Haoling was in the state of Chu, he loved talking and laughing, and lived a happy life.

However, after returning to his country, he concealed all his true temperament.
