Chapter 42: Assassination in person

A cold voice rang out in the night sky, and a figure appeared in front of her, blocking her way.

"Duan Bailan, why did you go back to Kyoto?" Liu Nianru looked at him in surprise.

Last time, she only came back alone, and she thought that Duan Bailan would have to stay outside for some time.

"I wanted to come back to see you, but luckily I arrived just in time." Duan Bailan came over to hold her hand and asked in a low voice, "You broke into the palace at night, what do you want to do?"

God knows, when he learned that the emperor was going to marry Xiao Yan and her, he rushed back non-stop.

He would never allow her to marry anyone else.

And as soon as he returned to the palace, he happened to see her jump on the beam of the house and leave, he was not at ease, so he followed.

"I'm going to kill that dog emperor." Liu Nianru shook off his hand and wanted to pass through her and leave.

Duan Bailan refused, he hugged Liu Nianru with his backhand, and whispered in her ear, "You calm down."

The night was cold, but he was warm and warm, and the fragrance of his body lingered on the tip of her nose.

"Calm down, how do you calm me down? It is I, not you, who have been given the marriage! The decree has been issued, can he still take it back? Liu Nianru broke away from his embrace, and her eyes were red.

She is so smart, how can she not understand the emperor's thoughts.

The emperor was just worried that Duan Bailan was powerful, and if he joined him, it would threaten the imperial power, so he pushed the boat down the river and brought himself and Xiao Yan together.

In ancient times, the imperial power was supreme, and how could the holy decree that came back be recovered? Liu Nianru understands that the matter has become a foregone conclusion, so she wants to kill the old emperor, make the world chaotic, and fight for that little variable.

Duan Bailan saw her breaking free again and again, so she had to grab her sleeve helplessly, and persuaded her in a good voice: "Ru'er, I don't want you to marry him more than you." But you can't kill him yet. ”

"Why? Isn't killing him exactly what you wanted? Why did you stop me? Liu Nianru looked at him coldly.

"Do you know that the killing of the monarch is to punish the Nine Clans, not only you, but all the people in General Liu's Mansion will be implicated because of you." Duan Bailan persuaded.

He said to her sincerely, trying to persuade her to turn back with family affection.

"You say the General's Mansion? What does this have to do with me? "She has rarely felt warmth in General Liu's Mansion in this life, she still has memories of her previous life, and she has never regarded them as real family members at all, so how can she care about their life and death?

"But I care about you, I don't want anything to happen to you." Duan Bailan hugged her back into his arms, and he specially increased her strength, so that she couldn't break free again.

"Duan Bailan!" She blushed and called out his full name in some anger.

"Whether it is said that I have unpredictable intentions, or that I have any bad intentions for you, I will definitely not let you go today." Duan Bailan's voice has always been soft, but it is rare to be as helpless and firm as now.

No matter what Liu Nianru thinks of him, she wants to have no scruples, but he can't follow what she thinks, and he can't watch her go the wrong way.

"Trust me, I won't let you marry Xiao Yan. As long as you don't want to do something, with me, no one can force you. Duan Bailan coaxed gently.

The gentleness of that moment made Liu Nianru a little distracted.

No one had ever said anything like that to her, and no one had ever placed her properly in the palm of their hand. She's always been powerful and unbeatable, and that's just because she's helpless.

"You said, can you let me not marry him?" Liu Nianru looked at him expectantly.

"I can." Receiving his affirmative answer, a stone in her heart fell to the ground. It was strange that she would only believe it if he said so.

Seeing her rare well-behaved, he had an indescribable feeling in his heart. From the first time they met, he felt that she was different from other women.

"It's windy outside, let's go back. Get a good night's sleep. Duan Bailan took off her coat, wrapped her, and then hugged her and took her back.

Under the moonlight, her expression was extraordinarily quiet, I don't know if it was because she was in his arms, or because she felt that she would not marry Xiao Yan.

It's always easy to worry about dreaming, not to mention that her spirit has been tense, and at this moment she fell asleep in Duan Bailan's arms.

Her eyelashes are long, her skin is white, and her skin is even more beautiful in the moonlight, which makes people want to kiss it.

"What should I do with you?" Duan Bailan sighed silently.

He carried her and landed in her courtyard. There are usually few people in this courtyard, and it is even more peaceful at night. He didn't want to alarm Changwu and them, so he silently put her on the bed and lay down, and helped her fold the quilt.

"You're pretty good right now." Duan Bailan looked at her like this, and suddenly couldn't help but laugh.

He coveted her sleeping face, wanted to take a few more looks, but in the end he couldn't resist the deep dew of the night, and he had more important things to do tomorrow.

"Lord Wang, everything in Jiangnan has been deployed. It's just that the subordinates haven't found out what the secret Lu Gong wants to keep is. As soon as Duan Bailan went out, he saw Chen Qin standing in the courtyard and reporting to him.

"Keep looking." Duan Bailan said.

"How could it be that slut!" Liu Wanyan sat in front of the dressing mirror, and the good-looking face in the mirror was distorted by resentment, and every texture was written with viciousness.

Liu Nianru and Xiao Yan were given marriage, in addition to Liu Nianru's displeasure, Liu Wanyan was even more unhappy.

Why? Why is it that from childhood to adulthood, the cheap woman who has a mother and no mother always presses her, whether it is the identity of the concubine or the care of her father.

She obviously already has Duan Wangye, but she still has to compete with her for the Seventh Prince. If she refuses, she must take revenge and let her die a good death!

If she dies, there will be no one to fight for all this with her.

She clenched the hairpin in her hand tightly, not knowing what she was thinking. Until suddenly there was a knock on the door.

"Wan Yan, it's my mother, you open the door." Aunt Wang shouted with some concern.

Liu Wanyan opened the door with a smiling face, and asked playfully, "Mother, why are you here?"

Seeing her happy look, Aunt Wang asked cautiously: "Wan Yan, do you know that the marriage edict of the Seventh Prince has been issued."

As Liu Wanyan's biological mother, she naturally understood Liu Wanyan's love for Xiao Yan, so she hurriedly rushed over to comfort her.

"I know, isn't it the marriage between my sister and the Seventh Prince." Liu Wanyan said lightly.

The more she didn't care, the more Aunt Wang was beating in her heart.

's own daughter's temperament is always saying that it's nothing, and secretly I don't know how much I care.
