Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain

Li Yi was very excited when he saw the mixed expression of shame and anger on the face of the person in front of him.

At this moment, Lu Changfeng's low groan of pain came from not far away, interrupting the tense atmosphere between the two.

"The prey has woken up." Li Yi looked at Lu Changfeng who had just woken up with dissatisfaction, thinking that the wrong timing had ruined the atmosphere.

He then picked up a stone and accurately hit Lu Changfeng's acupuncture points, causing him to fall into coma again.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Qu Shang quickly broke free from Li Yi's arms, took several steps back to maintain a safe distance, and then stopped.

Looking up at the sky, I realized that time was running out and Chu Feimo should have entered the city.

"Watch this place." In a hurry, Qu Shang fed Lu Changfeng a pill, covered up the marks left on his body, left a word, and then used his light Kung Fu to leave and headed straight into the city.

At the same time, in the inn in the city, Chu Feimo was waiting with his legs crossed, tapping his fingers lightly on the table.

"Has Qu Shang not arrived yet?"

The attendant replied respectfully: "Your Highness, the High Priest may need some time."

"Don't worry, I have enough time to wait for him." Since Qu Ruchen is in my hands, Qu Shang will show up sooner or later.

"By the way, what is the current situation in Yujing City?"

When I entered the city, I found that Yujing City was peaceful and there was no turmoil as I had expected.

Shouldn't the destruction of the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion cause an uproar in the city?

Why is everyone from the royal family to the common people so calm, as if nothing had happened?

"Your Highness, the matter of the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion seems to have been suppressed by the Emperor of Beiling."

"I see." Chu Feimo smiled slightly and leaned back, "To be able to keep the people silent, there must be not many people in the court who know about this.

Indeed, if the news of Zhenbei Marquis Mansion leaked out, Beiling would lose a strong pillar. However, the truth cannot be hidden after all. Xiao Zhan, I will see how long you can suppress this matter. "

In the palace, Tieyi was reporting the situation to Xiao Zhan.

"Your Highness, we have searched everywhere, but still can't find the whereabouts of the Marquis. The residents of the city seem to have heard some rumors and started to discuss the affairs of the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion."

"What are they talking about?" Xiao Zhan stopped the red pen in his hand, looked up and asked.

The Zhenbei Marquisate represents the military power of Beiling. Once the news leaks out, the other nine countries are likely to take the opportunity to invade.

Without a commander, an army of more than 100,000 would be nothing but a pile of loose sand. In addition, the Xiyong people had already entered Yujing City, and any rumors could be detrimental to Beiling.

"Everyone said that there has been no movement in the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion for several days, and they suspected that something had happened." Tieyi replied.

"Your Highness, the secret of the Zhenbei Marquis' Mansion cannot be concealed for long. The Marquis is missing, Miss Gu is in a coma, and these hundreds of thousands of soldiers have no one to lead them. If the court officials find out, it will be troublesome if the army falls into the hands of others." Qing Feng added.

The old nobles have always coveted military power, but they dared not act rashly because of the existence of Zhenbei Hou. Now that the opportunity has come, they will be the first to seize it.

"Don't we have another suitable candidate?" Jiang Xue said as soon as she entered the door.

"You mean..." Seeing her, Xiao Zhan's expression softened a little.

"Nan Jingxing." Jiang Xue nodded. "I originally planned to let my cousin marry General Nan. Then, as the son-in-law of the Zhenbei Marquis's Mansion, isn't it natural for General Nan to take over everything?"

For Xiao Zhan, Nan Jingxing is the most reliable choice.

"My cousin has woken up, and their marriage decree can be announced at any time." Jiang Xue continued.

"Has Lu Linyi woken up? Did she mention the matter of the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion?"

The Zhenbei Marquis Mansion was tragically wiped out, nearly a hundred lives were lost in an instant, and many mysteries remain. Xiao Zhan pursues the case relentlessly and will not let go of any clues.

Lu Linyi was the only survivor of the tragedy, and her testimony was crucial. But since she woke up from the shock, she was like a frightened little bird, curled up in a corner and trembled.

"My cousin is very scared now. She won't let anyone get close to her except me." Jiang Xue shook her head helplessly.

"So that's how it is..." Xiao Zhan frowned, "I've sent someone to inform Jing Xing. He only said that Miss Gu was unwell, and didn't mention anything about the Marquis' Mansion. Let's talk about it when he comes."

Nan Jingxing is facing the heavy pressure of his family alone at the moment, and the old nobles are making things difficult for him. Xiao Zhan sees all this, but he wants to see if Nan Jingxing can solve these problems independently.

As soon as he finished speaking, a guard came to report: "Your Majesty, General Nan has arrived."

Nan Jingxing hurried into the palace, saluted Jiang Xue and Xiao Zhan, and asked anxiously, "Where is Lin Yi?"

From the moment he received the news, he felt something was wrong. If it was just a minor illness, why would Xiaochun personally bring someone to report it?

"Follow me." Jiang Xue led him towards where Lu Linyi was, and heard a scream before they entered the door.

It was Lu Linyi’s voice!

Nan Jingxing rushed in immediately and saw a large vase flying towards him. He quickly dodged and the vase broke into pieces. Xiao Zhan quickly protected Jiang Xue and stepped aside to avoid being hurt by the fragments.

The room was in chaos. Doctor Qu Xin was looking at Lu Linyi in distress as he had spilled another bowl of medicine.

"What a headache," she complained, saying that the princess's cousin could neither be beaten nor scolded, let alone forced to receive treatment.

At this time, Fu Dong came in with the last bowl of medicine and reminded: "Miss Qu, this is the last chance."

Lu Linyi on the bed was still alert, holding a glass vessel tightly in his hand, as if ready to fight back at any time.

"Put it on the table first," Qu Xin suggested, "In her current state, giving her the medicine directly will only cause it to spill again."

Qu Xin gently pressed her brows, pointed at the table behind her and said, "This is the medicine I worked so hard to make, it can't be wasted." She wondered in her heart when Xiaoxue would come back.

Just as she looked out the door, Nan Jingxing's figure came into view. "General Nan, please take care of my cousin." Qu Xin said.

Seeing Lu Linyi gradually calm down in Nan Jingxing's arms, Jiang Xue was relieved. Fortunately, her cousin did not resist the general, otherwise she would not know how to deal with it alone.

"Give me the medicine." Nan Jingxing gently comforted Lu Linyi while taking the bowl of medicine from Fu Dong and carefully feeding it to Lu Linyi.

At this time, Qu Xin approached Jiang Xue and asked in a low voice: "Who is he?"

"This is the Nan family's Major General, Nan Jingxing." Jiang Xue replied, and warned: "He is my cousin's sweetheart, don't have any bad ideas."

Qu Xin glared at her and said, "I'm not interested in men who are already taken." She felt that Jiang Xue misunderstood her curiosity.

Although she did have a preference for good-looking men, she would not approach just any man she saw. And in this situation, even if Nan Jingxing was single, she would not think too much about it.
