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

Xiao Heyun's expression remained unchanged, as if even the collapse of the sky would not move him.

But some people are gloating.

The Night King is now abandoned by His Majesty, his military power has been taken away, and he has become a useless man from now on!

"Yes, I understand."

But some people's expressions changed drastically after hearing this!

"Your Majesty, I am sorry for you! I am a burden to you!"

Li Jin was crying when he was pulled out of the Ministry of Justice prison.

He thought that it was Xiao Heyun who insisted on saving him that made His Majesty angry and say such inhumane words.

But Xiao Heyun shook his head: "It's not your fault, Your Majesty... has already made the decision."

Ever since his prestige on the border was too high, the emperor had been wary of him.

Those who have become too successful are always the first to be targeted. Li Jin is just a small problem.

"But, what will the prince do in the future?"

His leg injury is serious, and he has been busy recently, so the chances of getting better are probably slim.

Thinking of the cold stares and poor treatment he had received in recent days, Li Jin cried even harder.

"You are father and son after all. Your Majesty, why do you have to kill them all? Isn't his words letting everyone in and outside the court know that you are useless?"

The end of being disliked by the emperor is death, and it seems that his words mean that he wants to put Xiao Heyun under house arrest.

In response, the man sneered: "He would like to kill me with his own hands."

Li Jin fell silent upon seeing this.

Night King Xiao Heyun was raised in the palace when he was young. His mother was of low status and was not favored, and died very early.

He did not have a good life in the palace, so he later joined the army and made a name for himself.

People in the court feared him, but also hated him.

This time, Xiao Heyun's leg was injured by someone.

But in order to stabilize the border and unite the soldiers, Xiao Heyun did not tell anyone the truth.

But they have to get this debt back.

"My Lord, let's go back to the palace first."

Xiao Heyun nodded slightly and led his men out of the palace.

He paused slightly when passing by a rouge shop.

"My lord, what's wrong?"

Xiao Heyun retracted his gaze and shook his head: "It's okay."

At the very outside of the rouge shop, there was a golden hairpin with a beautiful butterfly hanging underneath, which was somewhat similar to the one Nangong Yuan was wearing today.

That person...that's all. Why think so much about it?

Now that he is a useless person, he will only be looked down upon more often.

However, Nangong Yuan, who came from a prominent family and had a beautiful appearance, was a world away from him.

But Nangong Yuan didn't know that he thought this way. If she knew, she would definitely laugh to death.

"These are the betrothal gifts that Gu Zian brought. Please return them all."

Tao Zhu took the list and counted the items, saying, "Miss, it seems that we are still short of a few pieces of spring silk."

Speaking of this, Nangong Yuan seemed to have some impression.

I vaguely thought the color of the fabric was beautiful, so I made clothes into it.

It may be too late to find it now.

"Convert it into silver first, and pay back what you owe. If there's anything you've missed, we'll deal with it later."

Nangong Yuan took a sip of tea and then seemed to remember: "Oh, by the way, I asked you to lead the way that day. Did the prince meet His Majesty?"

"Of course I saw him, but the eunuch guarding the door was really arrogant. After all, the Night King is also a prince, and his words were really rude."

Even Tao Zhu, a maid, felt that it was too much, let alone the person involved.

Nangong Yuan was silent for a moment, then said, "There is nothing I can do."

The Night King has not been liked by His Majesty since he was a child, and even when he came of age and was given a title, the matter was dealt with hastily.

In addition, Prince Li, the queen's legitimate son, was very prominent in the court, which made him look very gloomy.

But who would have known that such an unknown person could actually lead tens of thousands of troops to repel aliens at the border and return with great military exploits?

It’s a pity that someone just couldn’t stand this and broke his legs.

"What a pity! Everything is given to others."

After hearing this, Nangong Yuan was surprised: "What do you mean?"

"Miss, you haven't been out for the past few days, so you don't know. Although the prince met His Majesty that day, he was treated coldly. His Majesty released the prince's guards, but told the prince not to go out unless necessary."

Nangong Yuan's expression turned cold: "What? Isn't it obvious that Xiao Heyun is going to be crippled?"

"That's right. Right now, the court is in turmoil. There is a huge dispute over who will take charge of the military power that King Ye has retired. Now it seems that it will fall into the hands of King Li."

As a member of the General's Mansion, Tao Zhu was both literary and martial, so he naturally noticed something strange.

"What can we do? The consequences of having military power taken away are so tragic. Throughout history, people like this have died without a burial place. Your Majesty is cruel enough."

Tao Zhu sighed and said, "So Miss shouldn't have helped that day. If someone had targeted her, the consequences would have been disastrous."

But Nangong Yuan shook her head: "No, it's good to help."

Only such a tragic situation can highlight the preciousness of her helping hand.

Everyone forced him to die, only he wanted him to live.

That’s why Nangong Yuan said that the help was good that day.

"Send someone to find out if there is any movement in the Night King's Mansion."

Tao Zhu paused when she saw this and asked, "Young lady, why are you so concerned about the Night King? I have only seen you care about the Prime Minister like this in my life."

These words really hit the nail on the head.

Nangong Yuan coughed to cover up: "You little girl, I told you to go to work, why are you talking so much."

Seeing this, Tao Zhu said in a low voice: "Yes, I will go right away. After returning the betrothal gifts, I will go and inquire."

She took the servants in the mansion to return the marriage certificate and other things to the Gu family before she could return to the Night King's Mansion.

"By the way, there's one more thing."

Tao Zhu blinked: "Miss, please speak."

"I want to know why Gu Zian suddenly wanted to cancel the engagement. What's the reason?"

"Ah? But the engagement has been cancelled, why does young lady still care about these things?" Tao Zhu was worried that her young lady would not repent.

Nangong Yuan said, "My marriage with him is very involved. He never said anything before, but this time he was so determined. There must be a reason. I want to know."

Not only for her own sake, but also to prevent any situation that she was not aware of from involving the General's Mansion.

At least she knew Gu Zian.

Even if the sky falls, I might just laugh it off.

Such a self-controlled and calm person is unlikely to lose his mind and do something that is detrimental to everyone.

So it is normal for Nangong Yuan to be worried.

"Yes, I will go and ask around. Miss, just wait for the news."

Seeing this, Nangong Yuan waved her hand and said, "Go quickly and come back soon."

"Know it!"

Tao Zhu and his men left in a grand manner, attracting a lot of attention along the way.

After all, the marriage between the two families can be described as a beautiful story.

"Isn't this the box that the Prime Minister brought when he proposed marriage half a year ago? Why is it here?"

Some people with good intentions pointed fingers and made comments.

"I have sharp eyes, I can't be wrong."
