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

When he said this, Ding Ran's handsome face looked particularly ferocious.

In his entire life, he had rarely felt such humiliation.

But on second thought, maybe it's because I've been in a high position for too long and the power has blinded my eyes. No matter who you are in this world, it's difficult to always stay at the top.

“Your Majesty…”

Ding Ran paused and said, "Oh, since the little emperor wants to take away the military power, then I will give them this opportunity, but... things will not be so easy for them to succeed."

"Then what should we do now?"

Ding Ran looked at the building in the distance with a sinister expression: "Before I leave, I will naturally give King Li a gift."

Since he dared to do something behind my back, I can't blame myself for being so cruel.

Besides, King Li is a man full of calculations. Isn't that the case if he cooperates with me?

Now he wants to kill Dalu, does that mean he also wants to kill himself?

If I were not in Kyoto now and was not the negotiating envoy of the Paracel Islands, I am afraid this madman would really dare to take action.

Therefore... Ding Ran will not let him go.

Nangong Yuan went home to rest.

Although she has been busy these days, she is not so busy that she is running around in circles.

Now that I have some free time, I can’t help but let my mind wander.

"King Li, when can I get rid of him?"

Nangong Yuan was extremely anxious. The sense of urgency that came with knowing the end was near was intensifying.

"I must kill him before I can leave in peace. Otherwise, how can I be worthy of my father?"

She would always remember the look in her father's eyes when he left, that expression with a gentle smile almost hurt her heart.

Nangong Yuan wondered, if she had been more cautious, or more careful, would everything not have turned out like this and become irreversible?

But...the facts have proved that even so, nothing can be changed.

The beast King Li is in collusion with foreign enemies, and the unprepared people have no power to resist at all.

So, he must die.

Apart from going to apologize to his father in person, Nangong Yuan would not accept anything else.

"Wait a little longer, wait a little longer, don't be impatient."

She patted her cheeks, hoping she wasn't too impatient.

You still have to be careful about this matter. Killing with one blow is the correct choice.

Otherwise...how can I make him see through everything?

Nangong Yuan knew that this was something she should consider.

·······

"Yuan'er, I noticed that you seem to have lost some weight these days, so I made a few clothes for you."

She was still in a daze when Mrs. Shen came in.

"Mother, it would be better if you leave these things to the embroiderer. Why don't you do it yourself?"

Madam Shen said, "I have nothing to do. Besides, you know, the backyard is quite quiet."

"Yeah, I'll try it then."

The clothes made by Mrs. Shen have dense stitching and look really carefully made.

"Thank you, mother. I like it very much."

Nangong Yuan was wearing the clothes she made and smiling happily.

"As long as you like it, I've been making it these days, but I haven't made clothes for many years, so my hands are a little rusty."

"It's okay, mother. I'll leave these things to the servants from now on. You don't have to do it anymore."

Nangong Yuan tried to comfort her, but she felt that this was the first time she was so tongue-tied.

"After your father left, I felt that this house became a lot colder. Fortunately, you are here, otherwise I really don't know what to do."

This was the first time since her father left that Nangong Yuan felt her grief and distress.

In the past, she said nothing in order not to make her children sad.

Nangong Yuan squatted on the spot, feeling as if her heart was being cut by a knife for a moment.

If her mother lost her again, she didn't dare to think about the consequences and scene.

“But...but, that is my dream. Going back is...the only motivation for my existence.”

For a moment, Nangong Yuan was at a loss.

Her eyes were red and she froze in place.

"Don't cry, Yuan'er. Your father is watching us from heaven. He also hopes that we can live a good life and not be swallowed by sadness."

Nangong Yuan closed her eyes in despair, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Her eloquence, toughness and stubbornness disappeared in an instant.

“I…I know.”

Before leaving, her father gave her many instructions and told her to wait for him to come back.

But nothing came of it.

Mrs. Shen was originally a sensitive and gentle person. Now that she had lost her husband, Nangong Yuan couldn't even think about losing her daughter.

Unconsciously, the world seemed to have become a trap, and she was a butterfly flying high in it but unable to escape.

It was because they were so good to her that Nangong Yuan simply couldn't be so selfish as to just leave.

She sat there, speechless.

"Now that you have been conferred the title of Earl, I am afraid that I will not be able to decide on your marriage in the future. A Yuan...what do you think?"

She didn't think much about it, and she had never thought about marrying Xiao Heyun before.

"I, I don't know."

"Don't worry, Night King... I know you and the Night King have feelings for each other. If you really like him, please ask His Majesty to grant you marriage."

Nangong Yuan held her hand and said helplessly, "Mother, let's talk about this later."

"Marriage is something that cannot be avoided. Before you didn't have someone you liked, I naturally didn't ask, but now that you have someone, why miss it?"

She looked at her mother without saying a word, but her eyes revealed a frightened look like a child.

"Yuan'er, you have been naughty since you were young, but you have your own ideas, so your mother has never asked you about it. But now, you don't seem to know what to do."

Mrs. Shen was very sensitive to her daughter's emotions and immediately noticed something strange.

"I... Mother, I haven't thought about this yet."

"Okay, but Yuan'er, you are lucky enough to meet someone you like in this world. If you really like someone, mother doesn't want you to miss it."

She patted Nangong Yuan's hand, looked at her young and beautiful face, and said with a smile: "Mother will support you."

Nangong Yuan bit her lip, trying hard not to cry.

··········

The world was cruel to her, but also kind.

Sometimes she really didn't know that fate could be so cruel and yet so gentle.

If...if she could be willful for once.

Nangong Yuan closed her eyes and said nothing.

She didn't know what to promise, and she had no idea what to think in her heart.

Her thoughts were divided into two and kept fighting with each other. She was unable to make a judgment, so she put it aside.

But the problems that need to be faced can never be avoided, and it seems that everyone is reminding her that escape is not the solution.
