Chapter Twenty-Three: Call Him
"Ah Wan, even if you don't think about me, you should think about your brother, the men of the Shu family are all generals, and they shouldn't be condescended to the frontier."
Shu Wan's face turned pale.
"Besides, the frontier is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War, and although I am the head of the civil officials, I have no right to exonerate your brother." After a pause, he stepped forward and gently hugged Shu Wan into his arms, this time she was no longer powerless to resist.
His fingers gently brushed the hair from her ear, word by word, word by word: "If you don't bring down Xiao Yan for a day, your brother will suffer one more day on the border, you should know that in such a sinister environment, if you stay for one more day, you will live one less day." ”
Shu Wan's hands hung down, and the light in her eyes gradually dimmed.
Wen Tingyu, he knows her weakness best.
He coaxed her lightly: "Ah Wan, believe me, marrying Xu Ruojiao is just an expedient measure, Xu Ge Lao has always remained neutral in the court, as long as I marry Xu Ruojiao, the forces in the court and China will definitely be inclined to me at that time, and Xiao Yan will be brought down, just around the corner!" ”
Shu Wan was silent for a long time, and finally spoke.
"I figured it out, I'm willing to do anything for my brother." Including to curry favor with Xiao Yan.
She figured it out, since Wen Tingyu's hand couldn't reach the frontier and couldn't exonerate her brother, Xiao Yan should always be able to.
She still had a trace of expectations for Wen Tingyu, thinking that he still had a trace of old feelings, but now she really saw his face clearly.
For the sake of power, he can sacrifice everything, including the Shu family, including her, how can she expect him to really save her brother.
She didn't have the patience to wait any longer, and she didn't want to be used by him anymore!
Wen Tingyu didn't hear her voice, and called her over and over again excitedly: "Awan, I know that for me, you are willing to do anything, my Awan......"
Behind the rockery, a pair of eyes stared at them.
Xu Ruojiao couldn't find Wen Tingyu's figure at the palace banquet, so she searched all the way, but she didn't want to see the scene in front of her......
The nails sank deep into her palms, and although she couldn't hear what the two were saying, she felt glaring when she saw the two hugging each other.
Holding back his anger, he returned to the palace banquet and bumped into a person carelessly.
Xu Ruojiao was angry, and when she opened her mouth, she scolded angrily: "Which one doesn't have long eyes!" ”
When he raised his eyes, he saw that he was the third prince of Beirong who came to Beijing with the envoys of Beirong, Wan Yanyu.
Although Wan Yanyu is the prince of Beirong, there is no trace of the prince's nobility, and his face is full of oil, I don't know if there is too much wine and meat at the palace banquet, and he is slightly shy in his belly.
He walked from the palace banquet drunkenly, and he couldn't help but tease some good-looking palace ladies along the way, and now his eyes lit up when he saw Xu Ruojiao.
"This beauty is really good-looking, are you willing to follow this prince back to Beirong to be a concubine?"
Wan Yanyu saw Xu Ruojiao, who looked lovely, and took advantage of the strength of the wine that had not yet subsided, and immediately wanted to take the person into her arms and be thin.
In order to avoid suspicion, Wen Tingyu went back to the palace banquet one step earlier, Shu Wan rested in the pavilion for a while, thinking that the palace banquet was almost over, so she got up and prepared to leave, not wanting a black figure behind her to suddenly attack......
When she opened her eyes again, Shu Wan found herself lying on a dilapidated wooden bed, the furnishings of the room had long been dilapidated, and this was obviously an abandoned side hall.
She struggled to get up, only to find that she was paralyzed and unable to exert her strength, and there was a strange feeling in her body that was growing like a vine.
Only then did she realize that she had been drugged.
The door was suddenly opened, and a dark shadow crept in.
Wan Yanyu didn't expect that Fang Cai just said casually, this woman was really waiting for him here.
"Beauty, are you waiting? The main hall has come down. ”
The strong smell of wine on the man's body kept burrowing into her nose, and Shu Wan almost wanted to gag.
"I'm ...... I am the princess of war, Xiao Yan's woman, you dare to touch me...... My husband will cut you with a thousand knives! ”
The man sneered twice, couldn't wait for a moment, and reached out to untie her clothes: "Don't scare me, if you are the princess of war, this prince is still the emperor of your Lang Kingdom!" ”
Shu Wan's consciousness was gradually lost, and she could only keep repeating the whisper: "Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan......"
She never thought that at such a critical moment, the first thing that came to her mind would be Xiao Yan instead of Wen Tingyu......
