completely different, a truth so harrowing that even a woman as gentle as Qin Shuang would lose hope."Back then, the Qin family was in turmoil, with war raging on the northern border. To secure their...:[ ]

Yun'an an did not explain why she was still alive.

She only asked Jingnan Hong one question, whether he wanted to reclaim the throne of Nanjing.

Blood-red eyes gazed at Jingnan Hong, a smile appearing at the corner of his lips.

She has already gotten the answer she wanted.

"In two months' time, I will help you regain control of the Southern Kingdom. During this period, everything needs to be done according to our orders."

Every word, every phrase, was icy cold. Yun An'an got up and walked step by step towards Jing Nanhong.

Looking at the face that was too similar to Jingnanze, a trace of sarcastic coldness flashed in his blood-colored eyes.

What do you want.

Jingnan Hong wanted to reclaim the throne of Nanjing, and was willing to ally with Yun An'an, a former enemy of Nanjing.

But, he wanted to know what Yun An'an wanted.

"What do I want"

Repeating Mirror South's question, Yun Anan furrowed her brow slightly, her jade hand picking at the crimson hair on her forehead, twirling it between her fingers.

"I want Beichen Yi dead. Are you satisfied with this answer"

The corners of her lips curled into a deeper smile, Yun An'an's eyes flashed with killing intent, instantly enveloping the entire room.

The air was abnormally frigid. Even though it was just entering autumn, Jingnan Hong felt as if he were in a hell of ice.

"As long as you help me reclaim the throne of Nanzheng Kingdom, after that, whatever you want to do, Nanzheng Kingdom will fully support you."

"Okay, I've noted your words."

Turning around, Yun Annan no longer paid any attention to Jing Nanhong. She sat by the window, inhaling the Lingxi incense and slowly closed her eyes.

When the aroma of Lingxi gradually flows into the blood from the tip of the nose, the pain deep within the bones eases somewhat.

Jingnan Hong left Fuklai Inn.

Beichen Lin walked to Yun An'an's side and extinguished the burning Lingxi incense.

"Has it happened again"

The poison of the oleander has already entered the bone marrow, and the pain when it strikes is beyond description.

Huddling Beinan into his arms, Beichen Lin wanted to use his own warmth to chase away the pain in the woman's embrace.

And at this time, Yun An'an's brow was once again covered with frost-white.

From fingertips to hair, ice crystals relentlessly climbed, only in a few breaths, Bei Chen Lin's embrace of Yun An An had become covered in frost.

"The Cloud Maiden has taken her medicine, the water is warm now."

When Apu arrived with the medicine, he found Yun An'an already covered in frost. It was not yet the time for her cold poison to attack. How could this be...

"Let me take care of it, you go rest."

Beichen Lin sat by the window, half-hugging Yun An'an. He took the medicine with his right hand and put it into Yun An'an's mouth, then carefully fed her warm water little by little.

Leaning against Beichen Lin's embrace, Yun Anan's face was pale with worry.

"Chiffon."

"I'm here, I've always been here."

Rubbing his hands together, Beichen Lin warmed Yun An'an with his body. He softly replied, his voice so tender, as if it were the twenty-first century.

Do you think, master would also come to this world

She came, the wind chime came, will that master come

“I don't know either, but even if the master came, he wouldn't recognize you.”

Beichen Lin's certain tone earned Yun An'an a roll of her eyes.

"What do you mean I've been so good. There's no way my master wouldn't recognize me."

"Come on You little girl, you have the nerve to say that"

Holding Yun'an in his arms, Beichen Lin's smile held a hint of playful teasing.

"I still remember that was your tenth birthday. Master had left half a bottle of white wine in the fridge after drinking some. Well, you snuck out in the middle of the night and drank the whole remaining bottle."

Beichen Lin was talking about things the two of them had done when they were young.

When she was ten years old, Yun An'an secretly drank the rest of her master's white wine and was afraid of being scolded. In the middle of the night, she snuck out. But drunk, she didn't even know where she was going.

In the end, it was still a kind passerby who brought Yun An'an back. Otherwise, who knows what would have happened

"And the year you came of age, if it weren't for me and your master stopping you, the eldest son of the Li Group would have been taken by you to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get married."

Listening to Bei Chenlin recount his embarrassing stories, Yun An'an's face flashed with awkwardness for a fleeting moment, stubbornly refusing to admit that it was something she had done back then.

"Don't be silly! If you and Master hadn't been drinking in front of me, would I have even thought about stealing some"

As for the coming-of-age ceremony at age 18, it's ridiculous that Li Group's eldest son went to the Civil Affairs Bureau.

She completed her mission and saw Li Tan being robbed by bad guys. She kindly saved him, which could be considered a beauty saving the hero. Who would have thought that Li Tan would propose to her, taking her household registration book and dragging her to the Civil Affairs Bureau.

She's the victim, isn't she

"He also said that when I was younger, Miss Feng of the Feng Group's second daughter refused to marry anyone but you. And you, you actually took me as a shield! Every time she saw me, she wanted to shoot me into a sieve."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Yunan nestled in Beichen's arms, the frost on her body slowly receding as she recounted their experiences from the 21st century.

Although life back then was a precarious existence, living on the edge of a knife, the pain didn't seem so bad when the three disciples were together.

Ke Yun'an never imagined that he and his master would both die at the hands of Qi Feng.

Although Qifeng had explained the reasons at the time, the master wanted to use his own sacrifice to allow Qifeng and her to escape their original lives. However, in the end, both Qifeng, the master, and she all died.

"Girl, once we've taken care of everything, let's get married on Phoenix Fairy Island."

Drowsiness crept in, and Yun Anan nestled against Beichen Lin's chest, slowly closing her eyes without responding.

Not long after, even breaths filled the air.

Beichen Lin lowered his head, gently stroking Yun An'an's long hair with his big hand, and kissing her cheek.

In this life, I will protect you well, even in death, I will not let you get hurt again.

Sleep soundly, he's always with you.

As the clouds drifted into slumber, Yun An An found herself back in Beichen Kingdom.

This time, she had returned to Yiwang Mansion.

As it was five years ago, the vacant Yi Wang Fu was devoid of any trace of life.

It was still the old study, and in the study, she actually saw herself lying on the imperial couch back then.

Carefree and content, with only eating and sleeping on my mind.

Hmph~

A hint of self-deprecating smile appeared at the corner of her lips.

The next second, the scene changes.

Yiwangfu became the imperial palace.

At the end of the long palace path, a man in a dragon robe reached out his hand towards her.

That feeling was so familiar it filled me with hatred, a desire to tear him limb from limb.

When Yun An'an wanted to step forward, her heart and abdomen suddenly surged with a massive amount of blood. In an instant, the world turned into a crimson hell.

Awakened again by a nightmare, Yun Anan sat up abruptly, her hand instinctively covering her abdomen.

"Did you have another nightmare"

Beside her, Bei Chenlin picked up a handkerchief and gently wiped the cold sweat from Yun An'an's forehead.

Apu, who was also watching from afar, was filled with worry.

Just now he clearly heard Yun girl calling out Bei Chen Yi's name in her dream, that voice... was filled with boundless hatred.

Moreover, Young Master Beichen also heard Yun Girl's dream talk, but why did he pretend to be unaware and ask Yun Girl if she had a nightmare

Could it be that he was worried that Miss Yun would be upset if she knew he had called out Bei Chen Yi's name in his dream

"Are you hungry I'll go prepare dinner for you."

"Have I slept for so long"

She slept all the way until evening.

"I'm done eating, let's go for a walk."

Okay, I'll comb your hair.

Bei Chen Lin skillfully picked up the wooden comb and combed Yun An'an's red hair, gently and carefully.

Apr squatted beside them, watching the two. He could see that Young Master Beichen loved Miss Yun from the bottom of his heart.

But Ke Yun always unknowingly rejected the affections of everyone, be it the City Prince, Prince Yuwen, or even Lord Sleeping Northern Star.

He seems like someone who wraps himself up.

On the street, red lanterns sway.

In the crowd, Yun'an walked at the front, Beichenlin and Apu followed behind.

They were laden with packages, looking just like a Christmas tree. But Yun An'an couldn't hide her joy.

"Master Beichen, may I go back first"

"Isn't it getting late now"

"I want to buy this."

Yun An'an pointed at the hairpin on the stall. Other people bought them one by one, but Yun An'an bought them from stall to stall. She was so generous.

"Cloud Maiden, come sit down and rest for a bit. If we keep walking... I'm going to die of exhaustion."

Apu can't walk anymore, he really needs some water to replenish himself.

A sugar water stall, three people sat by a small wooden table, one person bought a bowl of sweet water.

The taste of the sweet water is average, but it's refreshing and thirst-quenching.

Ap drank the water like a thirsty ox, gulp after gulp. He then asked for another bowl before he was satisfied.

At this time, the voices of several men seated nearby caught Yun'an'an's attention.

Do you know the Yānyǔlóu, the one in Beichen Country

"I see, what's up You sound like you have money to spare and can just go to Yuyanlou whenever you want."

The man scoffed, and the man beside him rolled his eyes at his companion before continuing.

"It's said that the women from Yuyan Building have been sent to Nanjing, to entertain the generals."

"Really What did you do"

“I’ve only heard that it was a woman from the YanYu Tower who assassinated Emperor Beichen. After her tracks were exposed, she was sent to the border of Nanjing Kingdom and is now being held in the big jail in our JiaYu City. She will be sent to the military camp tomorrow.”

"tsk tsk tsk, what a pity~ I heard that the women of Yan Yu Lou are all able singers and dancers, if they were to end up in the military camp... would they even be alive"

People were gossiping about Yu Lou when suddenly, they felt the air around them turn icy cold.

"I feel so cold, it's only autumn how come it's so chilly."

"You don't say... really!"

"Cloud Maiden, where are you going Wait for me~"

Seeing Yun An'an rise and quickly disappear at the end of the street, Apu also had to get up.

"Please, take these back to the inn."

Beichen Lin took off the bags he was carrying and chased after Yun An'an.

Poor Ap stood alone, looking at the scattered goods on the floor, with a wry smile and a helpless expression on his face.

Jiayu City, City Lord's Mansion.

"Who dares to trespass into the City Lord's Mansion, seeking death!"

Bang!

Before the guard could finish his words, Yun An'an drew her sword from her waist and swiftly dispatched the guard at the gate. and 'carried' her back to the small fishing village, she would probably be psychologically traumatized.The carriage rattled along, finally arriving at Yuancheng after a ten-day journey.As the largest...
