After I captured the wrong male lead, I broke off the engagement and married the villain

Nangong Yuan said: "Don't worry, brother. I know what's going on."

"I understand. A Yuan has always had his own opinions since he was young. There is nothing wrong with what you want to do."

After hearing this, Nangong Yuan forced a smile.

Now, she doesn't know whether she is on the right path.

Fortunately, everything went as expected, which made Nangong Yuan feel a little relieved.

"By the way, brother, when will you report to the palace?"

Nangong Jin thought for a moment and said, "Tomorrow, I heard that today is the day for civil officials to report on their duties. I will enter the palace tomorrow."

"what happened?"

Nangong Jin felt a little surprised when she asked this.

"I'm just asking, and, brother, do you know that Shen Jing has already..."

Nangong Jin was stunned for a moment: "I seem to have some impression of this person, this year's new top scholar?"

"Yes, if he has any trouble, can you help him, brother?"

Nangong Jin asked: "Why, are you friends with him?"

"This man is interesting. Besides, His Majesty has allowed him to work in the Ministry of War. It is always beneficial to have a good relationship with him."

Seeing this, Nangong Jin nodded: "Yes, I understand. But if Your Majesty knew..."

What the emperor feared most was collusion among court officials, especially these military generals.

But Nangong Yuan shook her head: "Don't worry, firstly, you just came back from the border and you are not familiar with the personnel transfers, and secondly...I was the one who saved His Majesty when he was assassinated before, he won't be suspicious."

If the Nangong family really wants to rebel, then all they have to do is watch him die.

After all, they hold military power, and when the emperor dies, they can just wait for the princes and nobles to come and fight for them.

But the Nangong family did not do so, just to express their intention that they had no intention of rebelling.

The emperor is not a fool, it is impossible that he doesn't understand.

"Okay, I understand. If there is any situation, I will come forward."

Nangong Yuan then laughed: "Okay, thank you brother."

"What are you thanking me for? You've grown up now and can think of doing these things to help the family."

"I know that a big tree in the family attracts the wind, so it is always good to make more preparations."

The two men came out of the armory and stood on the corridor, looking at the wind and snow outside.

It is still snowing heavily today, but there is no wind, so it doesn't seem that cold.

"The conditions in the Southwest Station are very difficult, aren't they?"

Nangong Jin said: "When I first went there, I wanted to come back every day and felt that my life was so miserable, but later on, I gradually got used to it."

As a military general, one must have the determination to face death and the perseverance to persevere.

Nangong Jin received teachings from his father when he was young, and when he grew up he was indeed better than they thought.

However, this meant that he would never be able to live in a comfortable home like those young masters in Kyoto.

"Do you want to come back, brother?"

Nangong Jin thought for a moment and said, "I think my home is here, but I've been there for so long that sometimes I feel like it's my second home."

Whether it was his subordinates, soldiers, or foreign enemies, there were enough reasons to keep him.

Nangong Yuan tilted her head and looked at his gentle and solemn profile with a look of pity.

"When I first left, I felt that everything was new and interesting, but the weather in the southwest station was bad, with frequent wind and rain. Later I got used to it, but I still felt homesick."

However, due to his responsibilities, he couldn't leave easily.

Hearing this, Nangong Yuan said: "Brother will come back eventually."

"Yes, after a few years, maybe I can be transferred back to Beijing?"

After saying this, he seemed to feel that he was too confident and would bring some unnecessary expectations to her.

Then he added, "But it has been much better in recent years. I am your brother, a general, and I don't have to live in the open air and suffer so much every day."

"Well, I know."

Nangong Yuan looked very focused, listening to his words and imagining what the southwestern garrison looked like.

Sometimes...she also feels it's unfair.

If possible, she wanted Nangong Jin to return to Kyoto before leaving.

When the time comes and I leave, if he is still around, he can at least comfort Mrs. Shen and the others.

"That's it."

Nangong Yuan frowned and thought, his eyes fell on the snow not far away.

"By the way, you always say that your martial arts skills have not fallen behind. Come, practice with me."

Hearing this, Nangong Yuan curled her lips and smiled: "Okay, it just so happens that I can learn from the great general how powerful he is."

She took off her cloak and hung it aside, and the two of them went to the training ground.

No one was sweeping the snow at the moment, so there was a thick layer of snow underfoot.

"Be careful. If you get beaten and start crying, I'll laugh at you."

Nangong Yuan raised an eyebrow: "Just try it and you'll know. It's still uncertain who will cry."

After saying that, she grabbed a long knife and chopped it over.

Although she was wearing a skirt, it was very light, so it did not affect her movements.

Nangong Jin took a few steps back to avoid the attack and took out a spear from the weapon rack.

He is very strong, and his attacks are filled with strong murderous intent.

That is the temperament that naturally emerges after training on the battlefield.

Nangong Yuan smiled, blocked the spear tip with his long sword, turned around and chopped it off.

The weapons collided, making a clanging sound that made your teeth ache.

Nangong Jin was a little surprised: "Not bad, it seems you have put in a lot of effort these days."

When they were young, the two of them practiced martial arts. After all, Nangong Yuan was young and a little girl, so she would cry when she couldn't beat him.

Nangong Jin had no choice but to coax her quickly.

But later, she didn't need anyone to let her or coax her.

Standing here now, I am strong enough.

"Of course. I told you, I didn't fall behind in my studies."

The next moment, the long knife chopped straight over.

The flying snowflakes were splashed by the knife, and the cold blade flashed with a faint light.

Ding!

Nangong Jin took a few steps back: "Okay, how come you are so strong?"

"Of course, let's try this trick."

The wind from the knife became faster and faster, continuous like waves on the water.

Nangong Jin blocked with his spear, fighting and retreating at the same time.

But Nangong Yuan rushed towards him, so that the spear was somewhat blocked.

Snapped!

Nangong Jin blocked with the butt of his gun and wanted to sweep her away, but she dodged it.

"you lose!"

The blade stopped at his neck, motionless.

"Good, very good! It seems that A Yuan is destined to be more powerful than me in the future."

Nangong Yuan laughed: "Really? Do you really think so?"

"Of course, you're my sister, how can you not be amazing?"

He wiped the tiny beads of sweat from his face, and the two of them laughed in the snow.

Nangong Yuan said: "So don't worry about me. I'm the only one who bullies others when we go out."

She was also indirectly telling Nangong Jin that he didn't have to worry about his family when he was away.

Now she is capable enough to stand on her own.

Even if something happens in Kyoto, she can solve it.

"A Yuan, this is very good."

He patted his sister's shoulder with a gentle expression.
