, Yun'an snatched the long sword from the guard's waist and severed the rope."Yun An'an, what are you doing crazy!"Han Qing let out a shout, startling everyone."Han Qing, are you an idiot Don't you ha...: []

Now that his identity was exposed, Nan Tuo no longer concealed himself. He removed his face covering and smiled half-closed eyes at Yun An'an.

Well then, with the Prince of Mobei appearing here, what is your purpose

"If this palace wants to help Your Highness, the Princess Consort, find the Regent King, would you believe it"

Yun An'an didn't answer, using her expression to tell Nan Tuo, "I wouldn't believe you if you were the last person on earth."

"Doesn't the Princess Consort really want to know where His Royal Highness is"

Just say it if you want to, otherwise keep quiet. I'm not helpless and can find it myself anyway.

Looking at Nan Tuo's sly and treacherous smile, it was clear he had set a trap waiting for her to jump in.

She's silly!

"Your Highness, you're joking. Without my guidance, Your Highness would never have found the Regent King."

Nantuo told Yun'an firmly that only a handful of people in the world knew North Star Yi's whereabouts, and he was one of them.

He will tell Yun An'an where Beichen Yi is, it depends on whether Yun An'an goes or not.

"At noon tomorrow, at the precipice of the border, the allied armies of the three kingdoms will gather there, ready to seize the land of Beichen. If Princess Yi has the courage, go to the precipice and look for someone. And I guarantee you will find Prince Bei Chen Yi."

Saying that, Nanto tossed the letter in his hand to Yun An'an. It was a letter that Yun An'an had written to Beichen Yi after he set out on his campaign.

Only Yun'an could write with such a messy hand, no one else could imitate the essence of it.

"As I have said, whether you go or not is your own decision, Lady Yi. Farewell!"

Nantuo's figure vanished into the darkness.

Yun An'an clutched the letter, staring into the darkness for a long time before finally returning to her farm home.

When Yun An'an returned to the farmhouse courtyard, she discovered that Han Qing, who had disappeared, was going out to look for her.

"Out here it's so dangerous, if you want to do anything just tell me."

Seeing Yun An safely return, Han Qing let out a sigh of relief.

I just saw Nantuo. He told me that I can meet Beichen Yi at斷崖關 tomorrow at noon.

"Who"

Upon hearing the name Nantao, Han Qing was taken aback.

Upon reconfirmation that Yun'an saw was indeed Nan Tuo, not someone else, Han Qing gave a strange smile.

That laughter echoed between heaven and earth for a long time.

"What are you laughing at"

"Tomorrow at noon, I will go to斷崖關 with you to 'rescue' Beichen Yi."

The next day, at the Broken Cliff Pass on the northwest border.

As Nan Tuo said, millions of troops are gathered at斷崖關, preparing to march straight in and capture the Northern Star Kingdom in one fell swoop.

Looking at the throng of people, Yun An'an and Han Qing, wearing armor from the Three Kingdoms Alliance, mingled among the crowd on the city wall, searching for Bei Chen Yi's whereabouts.

Last night, Nantuo only said that he could find Beichen Yi at the precipice, but he didn't explain any details.

"Stop!"

At this moment, outside the city walls, the coalition army of a million from the Three Kingdoms, which was originally marching forward, halted their steps after a burst of drums.

In armor, Nantuo rode his horse through the many obstacles and arrived at the city wall. At a glance, he saw two "extraterrestrials" on the wall.

"General Han, it's been many days. I hear you assassinated the Emperor of Beichen and fled here."

"Southern Expansion's Prince, this General truly didn't expect that the one who conspired with me to seize the Northern Star River and mountains was actually someone planted by another person beside this General."

Han Qing, though she never trusted Nan Tuo and didn't care about his betrayal, never expected that the Prince of Mobei would willingly become someone else's pawn, spying on him.

"This general originally thought that Li Ruolan serving both sides had been difficult enough, but now compared to the prince of Nantuo, she truly is a mere amateur."

Li Ruolan

Yunan turned her head to look at Han Qing. Could there be a dirty deal between this guy and Li Rulan

"Don't worry, AnAn. Once things are over, I'll tell you everything."

Realizing Yun An'an was scrutinizing him with her gaze, Han Qing assured her that once the matter was settled, he wouldn't deceive her.

"General Han, you jest. My loyalty has always been to only one person."

Yun An'an, standing beside Han Qing, held back a smile, her face full of anticipation.

"Did the two of you break up Why, was it because of a disagreement over the division of assets"

"An An, do you know to whom Nan Tuo is loyal"

Han Qing reached out and pointed at the man sitting on the Kowloon battle tank in the distance.

A man in black armor, imposing and dignified. Under a dragon-scale helmet, his deep gaze was filled with cold, murderous intent.

As if everything in the heavens and earth feared his ruthlessness, even gods and spirits dared not approach him.

Sunlight shone on the man's black armor. When Yun Anan followed Han Qing's direction, she was stunned for a moment.

Big Dipper... Big Dipper Yi

You're joking, right How could Beichen Yi be sitting on a chariot of the Three Kingdoms Alliance army

The more you look, the more alike they become. The more alike they become, the more they resemble Beichen Yi.

"Han Qing, I saw my uncle. Was it a hallucination"

Rubbing her eyes, Yun An'an closed them again and opened them once more. Looking again, the person couldn't be anyone other than Bei Chen Yi.

"An An, you're not mistaken, that man is the regent king of Beichen Kingdom, your husband, Beichen Yi."

Since Yun Annan was wearing the armor of the Allied Army, her helmet covered most of her face, and her face was also coated with thick dust. Beichen Yi on the Nine Dragons Tank didn't see that the person beside Han Qing was Yun Annan.

And Nantuo did not specify who the soldiers standing beside Han Qing were.

"Ann, aren't you curious why Beichen Yi would be sitting on the chariot of the Three Kingdoms Alliance to attack Beichen Country"

Yun An'an remained silent, her gaze unfocused as she watched everything unfold before her.

It is well known that Beichen Yi was besieged by the enemy army and his whereabouts are unknown. But why

"Ann, don't speak first. Let me find out what's going on,"

Han Qing raised her head, her gaze fixed on Bei Chen Yi. A cold, mocking smile spread across her face.

"Bei Chen Yi, this general doesn't understand why you, as the Crown Prince of Bei Chen, would choose to unite with the armies of three other nations to attack your own."

"This general still doesn't understand, what conspiracy do you have by faking your death to deceive the world"

The general still doesn't understand, why have you ordered the assassins in Doroku Castle to try and kill Yun Anan three or five times

Every question Han Qing asked, the killing intent in Bei Chen Yi's eyes would intensify by a degree.

Until the third question was asked, the man sitting atop the Kowloon tank subtly raised his fingertips. In an instant, thousands of crossbow arrows flew towards Han Qing.

Even if there were others on the city walls, as long as Han Qing died, the rest were worthless in Bei Chen Yi's eyes.

"Get down."

Han Qing pulled Yun Anan down to crouch behind the battlement, dodging the crossbow bolts that flew past.

"Han Qing, what did you mean by that just now"

Wasn't it Beichen Han and Li Ruolan who assassinated her Why is Han Qing saying that Beichen Yi ordered the assassination of himself three or five times

The first wave of arrows weakened, leaving a scene of death and injury on the walls. Behind the border wall, Han Qing rose again.

"An An, I'll let you know everything."

A heavy metallic scent of blood filled the air once again. As Han Qing protected Yun An'an alone, an arrow shot from a crossbow pierced his arm, and blood gushed out uncontrollably.

"General Han is truly lucky."

Seeing Han Qing was still alive, Nan Tuo frowned, his sword brows creased. As he once again ordered the archers to fire, Han Qing pulled a key out of his bosom.

"Beichen Yi, you should know that this key is the key to opening the mechanism box. As long as you solve all the doubts in this general's heart, this general will give you the key, otherwise."

Otherwise, he will throw the key to the abyss, and then no one in this world will be able to open the mechanism box and explore its secrets.

What do you want to know.

His gaze was cold and magnetic, devoid of any emotion. Beichen Yi looked at Han Qing as if he were already dead.

"Meeting at Tiānbǎolóu, encountering An'an, all of this was part of your plan, wanting to take Bàshù from An'an."

"Yes, and no."

A concise answer, Beichen Yi didn't know that all his words had reached Yun An'an's ears.

"Your love and protection for An'an are solely because she is the heir to the Unreturning Mountain, possessing the Four Treasures of the World. You use her as a pawn on your chessboard."

"Yes, but also no."

The voice remained cold and emotionless.

Beichen Yi's response was as if it didn't need any thought, completely following his heart.

Yun Anan, hiding behind the crenel of the city wall, frowned as she heard Bei Chenyi's words, "it is or it isn't." A sharp pain spread from her heart.

"From the moment An'an married into Yiwu Wangfu, you had the entire plan laid out. You used her, manipulated her, Li Ruolan and Nan Tuo were all pawns in your game. Each assassination attempt was a carefully crafted scheme of yours, all to lead An'an down your path step by step into the trap."

"Your love, your favor, your kindness towards An'an is all purposeful. Don't you only treat her as a pawn and not as your wife"

Han Qing said at this point, she felt more and more terrified of Beichen Yi.

To achieve his own goals, he even deceived the world, making people believe that Yun Anan was the only one in his heart, the only person he loved in this life and the next.

"Beichen Yi, have you ever truly loved An'an"

This is Han Qing's last question.

Han Qing knew Yun An'an was listening.

Nantuo also knew that Yun An'an was listening.

Yun An'an, who was also hiding behind a crenellation, listened.

The only response to Han Qing was Beichen Yi's silence.

Riding his horse, Nan Tuo lowered his head and smiled. He knew that Han Qing said this for Yun An'an to hear clearly, see clearly, and understand clearly.

What Cai Hanqing didn't realize was that even if they surrendered the keys, the two of them would still be unable to live and escape the encirclement of millions of soldiers.

The king he was to assist, would become the man who unified the seven nations and stood atop the world. He would never be held back by a mere Yun An'an, nor would he allow himself to be hindered.

At this time, Yun An'an stood up from crouching behind the battlement of the city wall, took off her helmet, revealing her face that had been concealed.

Her brows were tightly furrowed together. Yun An'an tilted her head to look at the man sitting on the Jiulong chariot, her eyes filled with a complex expression.

"Why"

Even if you're going to turn dark, at least give me some time to prepare, let me have the ability to bear this deception.

"But... Bei Chen Yi, I'm not ready to accept this kind of setting."bly tender, fearing that even a slight touch would shatter the beloved person before him.Why are you just coming back nowShe was late because of the Kyoto Medical Arts Convention. Old Master Wang insi...
