uth.Unlike the silent eldest son who did not eat or drink during his time at Yuan's family.At this scene, Yuan Luhai felt both joy and frustration."Old King, let go of your hand.""If you promise not t...[ ]

The Northern Star Kingdom, Rui's Prince Manor.

In the courtyard, autumn wind howled, and withered leaves drifted down.

Old Wang sat blankly in the courtyard, reminiscing about the scenes in his dream.

Since Yun Yazi left, he hadn't seen her for a long time.

This time, in a dream, I saw Yun An'an, wearing a white robe with a ferocious face and crimson hair, returning for revenge.

How wonderful it would be if all this... were true.

At least prove that Yunyao is still alive.

Old Wang heaved a sigh, his eyes filled with red, surging emotion.

"Old Master Wang, Yun Lao has arrived and the Princess has also arrived."

The guards reported their arrival.

Yun Qian Shan carried a jug of wine, with Bei Chen Rong Rong following behind him. The two came to Lao Wang Ye's side.

Seeing Old Wangye's face slightly pale, Bei Chenrong couldn't help but worry.

"Grandpa Wang, you haven't been feeling well lately. Would you like to see a doctor"

"I'm a doctor, it doesn't matter. Why are you two here"

Especially Yun Qian Shan, still carrying a pot of wine, it's rare to see that!

Yun Qian Shan placed the wine pot on the table, poured himself a cup, and drank it down in one gulp. Then, he raised his head and looked at the person across from him.

"An old man dreamed of a deceased girl."

In a word, what brought Yun Qian Shan to the Rui Prince's Mansion today.

He dreamed of Yun An'an.

But, she is different now.

"What Did you dream about Yun'ya too"

Old Wang's eyes widened in an instant.

"The old man just had a dream. In the dream, I saw Yun'er with fiery red hair, holding a broadsword covered in blood."

Lao Wang Ye described what he had seen in his dream, and Yun Qian Shan's wine glass froze mid-air. His eyes spoke volumes.

"Same, exactly the same! This old man even saw that dead girl's eyes covered in white silk in his dream, but beneath the white silk were two blood-red eyes, red to the point of being sickening."

Two old people were talking about their identical dreams, and Bei Chen Rongrong, who was listening nearby, began to cry.

It has been five years since Yun An'an disappeared from the northwestern border.

At first, no one knew what had happened until Beichen Yi led the Three Kingdoms Alliance army back to Kyoto and seized the throne. Only then did they learn from Han Qing, who had been imprisoned in the depths of the prison, about what had transpired that day.

Yun An'an died, falling from the Jùyá Guān (cliff pass) and being swept away by the raging river, her body never recovered.

Although they never gave up searching for Yun An'an under the cliffs of Jueya Pass over these five years, even if they found her bones...

Even such a simple desire has never given anyone even a glimmer of hope.

Thinking of this, Bei Chen Rongrong cried even more heartbreakingly.

She still doesn't understand why it had to be AnAn who went through all this. Bei Chen Yi clearly loved AnAn so much, yet why did things turn out like this

"Don't cry, your tears make my heart uneasy too."

Old Wang sighed again.

“As I’ve always believed, looking at the bigger picture, in the end, I’m still just a pawn in someone else’s game.”

At this moment, a man walked into Prince Rui's Mansion. The man respectfully bowed and paid his respects, conveying the imperial decree.

"Old Wang Ye, Your Majesty requests your presence in the palace."

It's not someone else, it's Bai Shiqi.

Bai Shiqi is no longer a guard of Yiwangfu, but the Commander of the Imperial Guards of Beichen Country. This time, he came to Ruiping Wangfu to deliver the order of Beichen Yi. Please, Old King, go to the palace to discuss state affairs.

Lao Wangye glared at Bai Shiqi, his cold eyes revealing undisguised disdain.

"As I have said before, five years ago I ceased to be the Prince Rui of Beichen Kingdom. Lord Commander, please return. Our Rui Wangfu does not welcome people like you."

"Lord Wang, Your Majesty's summons to the palace this time is indeed a matter of great importance. Please, Lord Wang, consider the overall situation."

Bai Shiqi persuaded again, causing Lao Wangye to scoff with laughter.

"Thinking of the bigger picture What bigger picture What does Beichen Yi's grand scheme have to do with me, an old man on his deathbed Get out!"

Old Wang once again issued an order to evict Bai Shiqi, commanding his guards to drive him out.

Even though Bai Shiqi still wanted to say something after being driven out of Rui's Manor, the gate had already been firmly shut, not allowing him to utter a single word.

After leaving Prince Rui's Mansion, Bai Shiqi rode his horse back to the palace. On the way, he met Qingfeng and his blind wife.

"Qingfeng, long time no see."

Bai Shiqi dismounted and greeted Qingfeng.

Ke Qingfeng, upon seeing Bai Shiqi, embraced his wife and turned away, completely ignoring Bai Shiqi's presence.

"Qingfeng."

White Seventeen chased after Qingfeng and followed him all the way to Ming Shu's small restaurant.

Uncle Ming, who was wiping the table, looked at Bai Shi who had just entered the door, a look of annoyance in his eyes.

"I'm sorry, sir, but we are closed for the night. Perhaps you could try somewhere else"

Upon finishing his words, Uncle Ming didn't pay attention to whether Bai Shiqi was happy or not. He turned and went into the kitchen.

Compared to the diners who gathered in groups of three or four to drink, Xiaowujiu's restaurant was quieter. Xiao Shiqi stood out as he ate alone.

"Once you're done eating, scram. Don't bother anyone."

A bowl of noodles was placed in front of Bai Shiqi. Qingfeng was about to leave when he was stopped by Bai Shiqi.

"Qingfeng, when will you return to the palace to serve"

"Your Excellency is too kind. I am now just an ordinary citizen, living a simple life."

As they spoke, Qingfeng sneered at Bai Shiqi.

“It's incomparable to the honorable status of Your Lordship.”

"Qingfeng, back then, you and I were both guards of the Yi Wangfu. We could only follow our master's orders. Why do you have to constantly ridicule me"

With a loud bang, Bai Shiqi jumped to his feet, glaring angrily at Han Qing who was clenching his fists tightly.

He was fed up with everyone's contempt.

"As a commoner, I wouldn't dare to mock General. Besides, Qingfeng used to be the guard of Princess Yi back then. You and I serve different masters."

Speaking of which, memories of five years ago came flooding back.

Qingfeng took a heavy, cold breath and wanted to kill Bai Shiqi, but he held back.

"You know what I hate the most, don't you It's that I didn't stop the Princess from going to the northwest border back then. If I had, she wouldn't have died, and her child wouldn't have died either."

Qingfeng never dreamed that the queen, such a woman, would end up dying at the hands of the king. This all felt like a cruel joke from heaven, something too hard to accept.

Don't come back here again.

As soon as the words left his mouth, Seijuro turned around and entered the room.

Wife Xiaoling noticed her husband's sadness. She reached out and gently cupped his cheek, soothing his emotions.

Bai Shiqi stood in the courtyard for a long time before leaving the small restaurant.

Autumn rain fell, soaking onto Bai Shiqi's body.

Everyone only knows that he followed the emperor into battle, and now that he has achieved success and ascended to a high position of command. But who knows that when he saw Yun An'an fall from the precipice of Absolute Cliff Pass, his heart also plummeted into the abyss below.

……

On the other side, far away in the distant city of Gallo, Xi Ling Kingdom.

According to Ap's plan, taking the waterway to Galuo City would be faster to reach Xiling Country's capital. However, with the current rainy season, to avoid unnecessary incidents, it is decided to take the land route instead.

After staying in Galuo City for two days, the group set off for Xiling Kyoto's Tiansuo City.

"After so long, I still don't know where Yun girl lives, are there any relatives left at home"

Amongst them, Ginger Yu Heng took on the role of Yun An An's driver in order to be closer to her. Apu sat in the passenger seat, keeping a watchful eye on him, like he was a thief.

And he was certain this Jiang Yuheng definitely didn't have good intentions.

In the carriage, Yun Anan half-leaned against the fur cushion, her eyes fixed on the book in her hand. Her hair, reaching down to her ankles, fell scattered on the white, soft cushion, resembling a nine-tailed fox radiating an enchanting and otherworldly beauty.

"Cloud maiden, my home is in the capital of Tiansuo City. After we reach Tiansuo City, let's rest for two or three days. I will take you to explore it thoroughly."

Jian Yun remained calm and ignored him. Jiang Yu Heng, unwilling to give up, tried asking again, but was met with silence once more.

The guards from the Ginger family flanking the carriage furrowed their brows, watching Jiang Yu Heng with confusion.

Is the Third Young Master crazy, why did he have to fight with the woman in the car

It was obvious that the woman wasn't going to pay any attention to the Third Young Master, but along the way, he acted like he was possessed. Not only did he shed his noble status and act as her carriage driver, but he also ate with her, played with her, and even smiled at her.

They dared to guarantee that if the woman nodded, the Third Master would definitely clean himself up and send himself to bed.

To know that the Jiang family was a prominent clan in Xiling Kingdom, they had never suffered such unfair treatment. However, Third Young Master not only didn't feel humiliated, but rather enjoyed it.

I don't understand, truly I don't understand.

"Yun girl, Tiansuo City has many delicious and fun things. If you want to watch a play, I'll invite a theater troupe for you…"

"Too noisy."

Her eyebrows arched slightly, her blood-red eyes gazing at Jiang Yu Heng beneath the white veil.

"One more word, and you're dead."

His voice was icy cold, each word laced with a palpable threat.

The guards of the Ginger family dared to swear with their brains, if the Third Young Master said another word, he would be dismembered in the next second.

Ap on the side chuckled smugly, watching Jiangu Yu Heng with a look of "You deserve it."

The carriage continued its journey, taking half a month to travel from Gallow City to the capital of Westling, Tensho City.

This is the Jiang Mansion of Tiansuo City, this son's home.

The Jiang family, a powerful clan with a history spanning a thousand years.

From both a commercial and political standpoint, the Ginger family holds a position of great importance in Xiling Country.

Not only that, five years ago, the Ginger family also assisted Emperor Beichen in capturing the capital of Xiling Nation and killing the Xiling emperor.

This behavior is tantamount to treason in the eyes of the world, but all the Ginger family has to say about it is, Birds of a feather flock together.

The Jiang family were originally loyal officials of the previous dynasty, but they have hidden their identities for a thousand years. Now that the time is ripe to assist the heir of the previous dynasty in reclaiming the throne, what crime have they committed

Furthermore, Emperor Xiling was tyrannical and depraved, indulging in licentiousness without restraint. The people suffered greatly, facing hunger and death everywhere. The Jiang family, adhering to the Way of Heaven, naturally wanted to support a virtuous ruler and unify the world. and eyes were full of displeasure.I didn't cherish it before, and now I regret it. It's too late!Yun An'an is the mistress of their Yiwangfu, the wife of their Wangye. You, a general, are always tryi...
