Chapter 36: He's Different
The two of them walked into Nanyan's room, sat down at the table, and Nanyan poured a cup of tea and gave it to her.
Xia Yunting took a sip of tea before saying, "That night, after the rebels - oh no, it was King Yan's men and horses that entered the palace, and some people also broke into Dongyuan, and they killed many people. At that time, we all thought we couldn't survive. Fortunately, someone later came to spread the word, saying that His Royal Highness King Yan ordered that they were not allowed to kill people in the palace anymore, so we picked up a life from under the knife. β
Nanyan stopped, and he also broke out in a cold sweat when he remembered what happened that night.
Xia Yunting said: "Later, they locked us up for a few days, and we were only released today." β
"Did you say why you were released?"
"Well, we don't know."
Xia Yunting said softly: "I've been worrying about you these days." Jiren Tianxiang, Nanyan, you are finally fine. β
Nanyan gripped her hand tighter.
Although the two of them have only seen each other for a few days, they have experienced such an earth-shaking event in the middle, which is tantamount to seeing each other in the next world.
The two of them talked for a while, Xia Yunting glanced around again, and then said, "By the way, why are you here alone?" Aren't you in prison like us? β
Nanyan shook his head and said, "I, I was confiscated as a slave, and now I serve by King Yan's side. β
"King Yan?"
Xia Yunting was stunned for a moment, and Nanyan hurriedly said: "But, I didn't do that kind of thing, and we don't have that kind of relationship!" β
Looking at her eagerness, Xia Yunting smiled and said, "Of course I believe you, if I didn't believe you, I wouldn't have said anything like that just now." However, are you safe to stay with King Yan? I've heard that King Yan doesn't blink an eye when he kills people. β
Nanyan was silent for a moment and said, "I'm fine." β
ββ¦β¦β
"Actually-" Nanyan remembered that Zhu Feng killed Chen Fu in the Huagai Palace, remembered what happened last night, and muttered in a trance: "King Yan is not the same as everyone thinks. β
ββ¦β¦β
"He's different."
Xia Yunting looked at her with wide eyes, a look of surprise and disbelief, Nanyan came back to his senses and hurriedly said, "In short, you don't have to worry about me. β
Xia Yunting looked at her for a while before nodding slightly.
Both of them were silent for a long time, and then they heard Xia Yunting sigh lightly and said, "I didn't expect that we would encounter such a thing." β
Nanyan was also a little confused: "Yes." β
ββ¦β¦β
"I remember the day I was sent to bed, and you cried."
ββ¦β¦β
"It was only a few days ago, but now that I think about it, it looks like a lifetime."
"...... in my previous life" Xia Yunting's eyes darkened slightly, and he didn't know what he remembered, and suddenly smiled: "Yes, I still remember when you told me that it would be good if you were a man, at least you could do your own business, and you could make your own decisions." It's a pityβ"
Nanyan smiled bitterly: "It's a pity, that's just a delusion." β
Xia Yunting sighed: "A daughter like ours, even if she becomes a man, what's the use? Concubine, isn't it the same as the day when he has no beginning? β
Nanyan said: "Now, I am not even as good as my daughter." β
ββ¦β¦β
"I don't have a place to be a slave, I'm just afraid that those people in my family will be more-"
"Nanyan ......"
