As if her body had been frozen suddenly, Leng Yantong froze on the spot, staring fixedly at the back of the handsome man in white. A moment later, something seemed to explode in her head.

"mother……"

Leng Yantong felt that her brain was blank, her heart seemed to be tightly grasped by a powerful big hand suddenly, her whole body trembled in pain, almost suffocating.

And when Lin Yan saw this young man in a purple robe, with black hair tied up, his face and the portrait of the person in his arms, his brain went blank, his eyes were slightly opened, and he just wanted to hide the person in his arms tightly.

But everything is too late...

"No! Impossible!"

After Leng Yantong screamed, she turned around and ran out.

"Hitomi!"

Lin Yan subconsciously looked at the person in his arms, on that elegant and dusty face, at some point, tears were already pouring down like rain.

"Hitomi" seemed to be tightly strangled by the throat with both hands, and opened his mouth with difficulty, but he couldn't make any sound.

Lin Yan felt a pain in his heart, but he only squeezed his trembling shoulders, and then he raised his feet and chased after him.

After a few leaps, Lin Yan caught up with Leng Yantong not far from the camp where he was stationed.

"Hitomi"

"let me go!"

Leng Yantong tried hard to break away from Lin Yan's hand, but found that she couldn't at all.

"Go back, it's not safe outside"

Lin Yan deliberately softened his voice and comforted in a low voice. In order not to hurt the person in front of him, he deliberately loosened his grip slightly.

Leng Yantong's eyes glowed coldly in the dark night, "Liars! You are all liars!".

As he spoke, he suddenly pulled Lin Yan's right hand that was holding his wrist, opened his mouth and bit it hard.

Lin Yan didn't even hum, and just lowered his eyes to quietly look at the frank and kind little white rabbit. At this moment, he suddenly turned into a wolf cub full of sharp teeth. complex.

Leng Yantong finally let go of her mouth, but couldn't help crying until her mouth quickly filled with a smell of fishy sweetness and a slight salty taste.

Lin Yan sighed deeply, took a step forward, and gently embraced the little man into his arms.

From childhood to adulthood, Leng Yantong, who was almost always held in the palms of Lin Yan and Xia Lan, had never cried so heartbroken.

Lin Yan's heart was also locked in one place, but not just for the little man in his arms.

Slightly looking up at the sky, only to see the waning moon and lone stars, the night wind is bleak, through the thin and light clothing, it penetrates into the skin and blood, and finally gathers in the heart.

The heart suddenly shrank, Lin Yan raised his right hand slightly, and lightly patted the shoulder of the person in his arms, "Go back, don't let your mother worry."

"I won't go back!" Like a cat whose tail was stepped on suddenly, Leng Yantong pushed Lin Yan away, shouting with sobs.

Lin Yan frowned suddenly, "Tonger! You".

"Boom, boom, boom!", the rapid drumbeat suddenly came, and Lin Yan's expression froze, "Kun, Tonger is handed over to you!".

While talking, the person has disappeared.

Before withdrawing troops today, taking advantage of the end of the fighting between the two armies, when the enemy army was the most tired and the guard was the most relaxed, Lin Yan quietly sent a team of people to sneak behind the enemy army to burn their food and grass.

Not surprisingly, they succeeded in the end. Lin Yan expected that they would become angry and jump over the wall in a hurry, and they were already prepared for this battle.

Most of the food and grass were burned, and seeing that they would be starved of food in the near future, it also completely angered the Nanjing Army.

This battle was fought for another night, until the next day when the sun was bright, Nanjing just sounded the drums to withdraw the troops, and not long after, they withdrew their camp for ten li.

On the second floor of Yuanlai Inn, a man dressed in black was kneeling on one knee, reporting last night's battle to the man sitting at the table drinking tea.

"Nanjing has suffered heavy losses in this battle, and the camp has been withdrawn ten miles. After this battle, the Tiance Army is also seriously injured."

The teacup in his hand has never been brought to his lips, "What's wrong with you?"

The man in black lowered his head again, "I'm not injured, but... the old injury may recur, and I haven't slept all night, I'm afraid."

"..."

The room suddenly fell silent, Qingying hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and said, "Princess, Shiwei has sent back a message, saying that it is...the details of those people's origins cannot be found."

This time, Nanjing suddenly tore up the peace treaty between the two countries and started the war. The reason was that Yunmu was unkind and bullied others too much. He wants to kill people, butcher his family.

Later, when he was caught, the nameplates of Tiance Army soldiers were found from several people, and they turned out to be Han Tang's soldiers.

After further investigation, there is no proof of death, those people were all hanged on the spot by Nanjing, and their family members hanged themselves on the same day, but those who were close to them either disappeared or suddenly had accidents.

So clean and neat, leaving no trace, the people behind the scenes are by no means simple.

Yu Sheng lowered his eyes slightly, and said lightly, "There are more."

Qingying lowered her head and said hesitantly, "It seems that it has something to do with the palace...".

The hand holding the teacup couldn't help exerting a little force, the fingertips turned white, and the joints became more and more distinct.

Sure enough...

Her aloof father really wouldn't just stand by and watch that person marry someone else as his wife!

But he is the king of this country, how can he easily rekindle the flames of war for his own selfish desires, put thousands of people in danger, and put the country and society in danger!

The soldiers were bathed in blood on the battlefield, that man was disregarding life and death, but the king of this country sat in the capital, plotting against everyone!

Yu Sheng suddenly felt lucky for her mother, she didn't live a life of lies, if not, how sad this life would be!

That person must have guessed something, otherwise he would not have suppressed the matter and never held Han Tang accountable.

Even though he guessed the reason behind it, and knew that if he was held accountable after the war, he would be guilty, but he still desperately charged forward to protect the environment and the people.

She obviously has a pure heart, but she always likes to say things that she doesn't mean...

Seeing Yu Sheng frowning in a daze, Qing Ying couldn't help but comfort her, "Princess, there are still doubts about this matter, maybe Nanjing deliberately planted the blame... As for the son-in-law, I think she is quite strong. , not to mention that lady is still there, nothing will happen."

The slightly raised cup lid closed with a click, and Yu Sheng slightly raised his eyes to look at her, but the worry in his brows and eyes became more serious.

According to what the dark guard said last night, the little princess... I am afraid that he has already discovered the matter between the two of them. The open sword and dark arrows on the battlefield may not be able to hurt that person, but some people's words may be sharper than the sword, spear, sword and halberd Hurt...

When Lin Yan arranged everything properly, it was almost time to return to the coach's tent.

As soon as she reached out to lift the curtain, she saw Leng Yantong lying on the couch with her eyes closed, and Xia Lan, who was dressed in white, was sitting sideways on the head of the bed, reaching out to remove the white cloth scarf on her forehead.

"What happened to Tonger?"

Hearing the sound, Xia Lan hurriedly got up and greeted her, and after carefully looking up and down, she said, "Has Yan'er ever been injured?".

Lin Yan hurriedly gave her a reassuring smile, "Sister Lan, don't worry, I'm not injured, Tonger, what's the matter."

Speaking of Leng Yantong, Xia Lan's bright eyes couldn't help feeling sad, "The cold wind blowing all night made me a little hot."

Last night, after Lin Yan left, Leng Yantong didn't return to the camp, she just stood there until she couldn't help but fainted, and Xia Lan just stood behind her and watched.

Lin Yan stepped forward and stretched out his hand, and it was really hot, "Didn't I ask Kun and the others to send Tong'er back last night, how could it be, sister Lan, why is your face so red?".

Xia Lan just shook her head lightly, and wanted to change the cold handkerchief to put on Leng Yantong again.

Lin Yan grabbed the slender wrist anxiously, it was hot as fire.

"Sister Lan, you, you have a fever!"

The cloak that Xia Lan took out last night was always draped over Leng Yantong's body, but she herself stood in the cold wind in thin clothes for most of the night, it would be strange if she didn't have a fever.

Feeling the trembling in the palms of his hands, Lin Yan's heart was seized instantly, and he pulled the person into his arms.

"Sister Lan, tell me quickly, where, where is it uncomfortable?"

Xia Lan lowered her head, trembling violently, "Yan'er, hurry up, let go, don't, don't be like this..." In her slightly trembling voice, there was a hint of heartbreaking pleading.

"..."

As if being slapped in the head, Lin Yan was stunned, and suddenly let go.

"No, that's not the case! Mom, you lied to me, lied to me..."

Leng Yantong's unconscious murmur was like a sharp knife, piercing Xia Lan's heart one by one.

Lin Yan looked at the trembling fingertips, finally narrowed his eyes, and took a step forward to hug him horizontally.

"Yan'er, you, you let me down, I want to take care of Tong'er"

"You are sicker than her and need rest more. She has me to take care of her!"

"Yan'er... Please, quickly, let me down"

Hot tears fell down, scalding Lin Yan's heart with pain.She raised her head slightly, but couldn't stop the tear from rolling down from the corner of her eye.

Gently put the person back on the ground, suddenly felt dizzy, but he clenched his teeth and held on.

And Leng Yantong also woke up at this time, "Tong'er woke up, but there is something uncomfortable."

Looking at the gentle face of the person in front of her, Leng Yantong suddenly wet her eyes, but she just bit her lip and turned her head away without speaking.

Lin Yan couldn't bear it, "Tong'er, just tell me if you feel uncomfortable, don't hold back."

Hearing this, the tears that were in the eyes almost fell out.

Leng Yantong sat up, looked at the person in front of the bed, and then at Lin Yan who was standing aside.

"Brother...I, have a question to ask you, I hope you can,,, answer me truthfully"

"……it is good"

The hand hanging by the side unconsciously clenched the corner of the quilt, "Do you really, like, like... mother?".

As soon as this remark came out, Lin Yan clearly saw the hand on the knee of the person sitting on the edge of the bed tremble suddenly, his black eyes darkened, but he only said in a slightly hoarse voice, "Yes... since a long time ago, I like it, I like it very much."

"What about mother?" Impatiently cutting off Lin Yan's unfinished words, Leng Yantong turned to ask Xia Lan, who had been keeping her eyes down all the time, "Are you, Xi, Huan, brother?".

But the brief silence, Lin Yan felt as long as a century.

Seeing Xia Lan finally slowly raised her eyelids, Lin Yan's heart rose in her throat instantly.

Slightly pulling the slightly dry corners of her lips, "Tong'er, Yan'er... are the same as you, both".

"She doesn't like me," said softly in a low voice, "From the beginning to the end, it was all my wishful thinking...".
