Proudly follow your heart

The woman didn't seem to know what he said, she just let him look at her, and continued: "Mu Zhaoran was originally a strong general of the Xia Kingdom, and now he is leading Linnan soldiers and horses to deal with the Xia Kingdom. If King Zhan didn't turn around and leave , together with him to capture Xiadu, maybe it is a different scene now."

Smiling as she narrated, she couldn't tell whether it was emotion or regret, she just said that, the expression between her brows and eyes was not at all feminine, but when she looked carefully, she had the majesty of a king.

That majesty does not come from her, but from the person who really said those words.

The king of Landong, Yan Ling.

They saw the shadow of King Yanling from her. Unlike Rinnan, which was ruled by King Anjia, Yanling's Langdong Kingdom is rich in copper wood, every inch of wood is gold, and is famous all over the world.

If you want to use an analogy, the people of Linnan are like soldiers, and the people of Langdong are more like businessmen.

"If you joined forces with Mu Zhaoran to capture Shundu of Xia Kingdom that day, you may have stood above ten thousand people. I don't know if King Zhan regrets it." She stroked her knees slightly with regret. sigh.

This movement, this sigh, seems to be an old man, the strange thing is that she is doing it, it seems natural and gentle, as if she is an old man, not a woman in her twenties in front of them.

Jun Zhanran suddenly had the illusion of facing King Yanling, but even so, he only said lightly when he spoke, "What I think has nothing to do with the monarch of your country."

The woman nodded, seeing his indifferent expression, when she thought he would not answer, he paused and turned to look to the other side.

Sitting on the other side of him was Nangong Cangao, a series of battles hadn't changed him too much, he was still the same man with loose long hair and half-open clothes...

"No regrets." Jun Zhanran said suddenly.

Nangong Cangao met his gaze, but he just hooked the corners of his mouth, his expression didn't fluctuate, but he said flatly: "I don't regret that I missed the opportunity to capture Shundu that day, not at all."

His answer was very simple, but the thing in his eyes was not simple, "You know, I thought he was dying at the time..."

He closed his eyes, as if recalling that day, he seemed unable to continue.

The woman was surprised. Jun Zhanran, whom she learned from King Yanling, was not such a person. Could it be that he cared so much about Nangong Cangao because he could help him achieve success?

"Why am I willing to die?" Someone shook his head, "If I don't see you before I die, how can I be willing?"

Jun Zhanran suddenly opened his eyes and frowned, "Don't say anything about death, do you hear me?"

He scolded, but Nangong Cang Ao laughed, "Zhan Ran is still afraid, so afraid of me leaving?"

He squinted his eyes and asked, seemingly very satisfied, as if there was no one else around, he moved closer and hugged Jun Zhanran's shoulders, the two of them had black hair intertwined, and between the lights and shadows, there was something charming and charming.

The Langdong envoy had never seen such a scene before, and couldn't help being a little dazed.

"I'm really scared." The person involved didn't seem to know, and let him hug his shoulders, gritted his teeth, and sighed.

In this sigh, there is helplessness, unwillingness, affection, and many things that cannot be explained... You must know that the experience of a person from birth to death, and from death to death is what most people know. Never before, the feeling in his heart can't be expressed clearly in a few words.

Just because I can't explain clearly, let alone talk about it, I can only sigh.

So his sigh was especially touching.

The woman couldn't help but sigh immediately.

How can people not feel pity for such a strong and fragile man?

After closing her mouth, she stopped asking. From this point of view, she is just an ordinary woman with a delicate appearance, and there is nothing special about it, but Jun Zhan will never forget that when she spoke just now, she is completely different from what she is now.

At this point, they were silent, and she didn't speak anymore, and the tent suddenly became quiet.

Xu Shi was recalled, but Jun Zhanran had no interest in asking further questions. He motioned her to go back and talk about it another day. The woman nodded thoughtfully and left the camp.

After she left, the two people in the tent were quiet for a moment, and suddenly they looked at each other and laughed.

Jun Zhanran changed his previous helpless appearance, a dark color flashed in his eyes, and he raised the wine cup at hand, "Since Yan Ling still has the seal given by the emperor back then, it is somewhat nostalgic, but I am afraid that I will choose the wrong side. , and then sent someone to test it out, this woman possesses supernatural powers, and she will definitely tell Yan Ling the truth about what we're going to do this time."

"Since Yan Ling is the king of Langdong, he will not do business at a loss. If he wants to help, he must first confirm that you are not a profiteer, and you and I are not taking advantage of each other. In this way, there is nothing to be afraid of. Variables. Acting so carefully, don’t blame Lan Dongguo for being able to protect himself wisely for so many years, and live in peace with Xia Guo.”

Just before summoning the envoy of Landong Kingdom, the two had already had a dispute. They let King Yanling know what he wanted to know, and they let him see clearly what they wanted to see. The rest was for the envoy. Return safely and convey what you have seen and heard one by one.

The smell of wine was diffused, and Nangong Cangao's smile flickered slightly in the smell of wine, and then he said, "But you and I are not completely acting, and it is not considered to have lied to him. It is not in vain for him to send someone to come this way."

"Exactly, you and I just need to know for ourselves, if I have to win Yan Ling's support, I won't act in front of others." Jun Zhanran really doesn't like such pretentiousness.

"You acted in front of me a lot back then." His words were refuted, Nangong Cang Ao nodded his chin, with a somewhat ambiguous smile, "Didn't I just get hooked to the bed by Zhan Ran? "

Although it was not intentional, but after careful consideration, it seems to be the case. Jun Zhanran did not intend to deny it, and argued: "You are you, not someone else."

Some people are always indifferent on weekdays, but they always say some heart-warming words so casually.

"Zhan Ran has changed."

"What changed?"

"Become less extreme than before, then..." He didn't know how to describe the state of life and death, and he didn't want to touch the pain left by his past.

"Not so much like a ghost." Jun Zhanran continued by himself.

If those who are familiar with him look carefully, they will find that after all these days, his indifference is still indifferent, but there is more warmth, and his aloofness is still aloof, but it is no longer so stinging.

"I'm becoming more of a human being, haven't I?" He knew it himself.

"Why did you change?" The person who asked this sentence actually knew the answer, but he wanted to ask, with burning eyes and a smile on his face.

Jun Zhanran raised his eyebrows slightly, in the eyes of men, only women are cute, but in his eyes, Nangong Cangao, who is so chasing love words, is very cute.

"Because of you." He said what he wanted to hear truthfully.

"Because of you, I, Jun Zhanran, know that hatred is not the only thing in my heart. It is also because of you that I can relax in my sleep, without worrying about the nightmares of the past coming to my door again."

Perhaps only when facing Nangong Cangao, can he speak his heart without any concealment, "So, are you satisfied?"

He couldn't help laughing, because seeing Nangong Cang Ao's contented and somewhat smug face, the man beside him put his arms around his shoulders, suppressed his smile, and whispered in his ear, "I'm so happy and worried... ..."

He wanted to ask why, but was hugged gently. Nangong Cangao breathed in his ear, "I have become Zhanran's only weakness. The ruthless, hateful Zhanran is certainly pitiful and heartbreaking, because I became sentimental, softened the inner Zhanran, and made people have to worry, what do you think I should do?"

Jun Zhanran sneered at his worries, and retorted coldly, "You mean I've become weaker?"

"If you had cheated Ji Nantian's cheat book before you met me, you would use all means to recover your wrist injury, wouldn't you?" Nangong Cang Ao knew him as well as he knew himself.

"You are no longer the 'Huang Zhan' who was forced into a desperate situation. After you have a choice, dignity, pride, and glory will come back. Some things you don't bother to do, but some things will become important. After all, you are the son of Emperor Yongsheng, the prince most valued by the previous emperor, and you have the blood of the royal family flowing through your body, maybe after a while... your view on inheriting the Xia Kingdom's throne will also change."

That's what worries him.

Nangong Cangao valued Jun Zhanran's eyes, "I once said that I would take back Xia Kingdom for you, and I could even kneel at your feet, regard you as emperor, obey your orders, and guard the country and the country for you. In front of you, what about you, Zhanran, you may agree that you will not accept concubines or leave any children for the emperor?"

Nangong Cangao is not joking, his eyes are very serious, serious and scary, "I ask myself, I can't watch you sleep with others, let alone accept that a woman will bear children for you. If there is a day, I won't Know what to do."

The calm narrative, but the words are full of danger, and there is a blood-red light hidden in the eagle eyes that are looking at each other.

Jun Zhanran was silent, he had never thought about this question before.

"I never thought that I must become emperor." He just wanted revenge.

"But what about after that? How can the position of the king of the Xia Kingdom be vacant? The four kingdoms are in chaos because of you, and the Xia Kingdom is overthrown because of you. Are you going to leave? If you don't ascend the throne, who else can? Are you going to give up the throne? Give it to me?" Nangong Cang Ao said jokingly.

"If you are an emperor, can you not accept concubines and leave no heirs? Can you do it?" Jun Zhanran asked half-truthfully.

"I can't." Nangong Cang Ao looked at him and replied slowly, "It's not that I can't, but the person sitting in that position can't. As an emperor, it is necessary to leave heirs. An emperor can't act according to his own desires. That is the responsibility of the emperor, and it cannot be avoided."

"What an emperor's responsibility, since you know the answer, why do you still ask me?" Jun Zhanran took a long breath, now that the situation is in his favor, maybe they will soon have to face this future.

Nangong Cang Ao twitched the corners of his mouth, without smiling, he seemed a bit angry and said, "If that's the case, I'd rather Zhanran lose to Shundu."

Selfishness finally defeated others.

"Or, when the time comes, I will come to be a traitorous general, drag you off the throne, and die together, or wander around the rivers and lakes, what do you think?" This time, even Jun Zhanran couldn't hear Nangong. Cang Ao's words are true or false.

"Don't be kidding." He shook his head.

"Who said I was joking," his face was carved like jade under the light, and Nangong Cangao's fingertips slid across his cheeks, "Or, what do you think of me coming to ascend the throne as emperor? At that time you Then you will understand my heart, and you will know."

After making love, Nangong Cang Ao, who always smiled in front of him, seemed to have nothing to shake him and change him, actually said these words.

For the first time, Jun Zhanran discovered that Nangong Cang Ao had been worried about this all along.

"Lord! There is an urgent report—" The curtain door was lifted, and Xiao Hu walked in. The two people in the tent embraced each other, seemingly charming, but for some reason, he felt a strange atmosphere, and immediately closed his mouth.

"Come on, what's the matter?" Nangong Cang Ao was the one who responded first, put down his hand, and asked with a normal expression.

"Something happened to Linnan, this is a letter from Zhanjiazhuang!" Taking a peek at Jun Zhanran, Xiao Hu didn't know what they were discussing before, so he handed over the letter.

"In chaos in the palace, it is easy to cause trouble if there are women around." While speaking, Nangong Cang Ao looked at Jun Zhanran with intentions, and gave him the letter.

"I heard that Lin Nan made a noise?!" Maybe it was because of some wind, the envoy of Landong Kingdom came to the door, and the voice came, and the person was stopped by the guard outside.

Jun Zhanran motioned for her to come in. As soon as she came in, she saw Xiao Hu first, and Xiao Hu also saw her, and both of them were stunned.

"Tiemei?" Xiao Hu had never been so surprised before, Jun Zhanran and Nangong Cangao remembered that from the beginning to the end, this woman hadn't reported her name, and they didn't ask either.

"Little Tiger?" The envoy from Landong called Tiemei was also surprised.
