Chapter 895 The Beautiful Thing of Old Love
An Xiaohuan concealed the truth and found another excuse.
"Although Prince Li's talent and strategy are extraordinary, it is not impossible to defeat him."
"My strategy is not too bad. I have been under his command for some time. It is not difficult for me to find the flaws and take the opportunity to escape."
Ning Yunxi took the blame and blamed himself.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have underestimated you."
An Xiaohuan turned his head and stared at her.
"I don't mean to blame you, don't think too much."
He reached out and smoothed her long hair that was messed up by the wind.
"Prince Li and his men are so cunning and scheming that it is hard to guard against them. Living in the enemy camp, I am always in fear and it is difficult for me to find a moment of peace."
"If I hadn't thought of you, I would have died."
Ning Yunxi was reluctant to leave and held his arm.
"Huan Lang, don't commit suicide."
"If you agree, I can find a way to transfer you back to the Tongshitai."
"With my current power, it's no problem for me to transfer you away from Prince Li."
An Xiaohuan smiled bitterly.
"You have no choice but to change your ambitions and live under someone else's roof. What power can you have?"
"Are you going to beg King Dijin for mercy for me?"
Ning Yunxi looked embarrassed.
"Not to the point of begging."
An Xiaohuan decisively refused.
"If you ask someone for something, he will inevitably ask for more."
"I don't need your help."
He took her hand naturally through conversation.
"I have dreamed of watching the sunrise together countless times, and now I finally get to meet you."
Ning Yunxi's tone was full of sorrow.
"Huan Lang kept saying that he missed me deeply and that he was obsessed with my dreams, but in fact, he kept it a secret from me and didn't say a word."
Worried that she might have seen through his lies, An Xiaohuan concealed his guilt and asked tentatively.
"What am I hiding from you?"
Ning Yunxi said clearly.
"I plotted to murder Concubine Chun. Do you bear a grudge against me?"
An Xiaohuan's expression suddenly became confused.
"Empress Chunfei?"
He thought for a long time but couldn't remember this person.
"Forgive my rudeness, Madam Concubine Chun, who is this woman from?"
"Do I know her?"
Ning Yunxi pouted, looking angry yet cute.
"It's the daughter of the Zhong family, Zhong Channi."
"Of course you know her."
"Aren't you old lovers?"
"I'm not narrow-minded. I can't tolerate even a grain of sand in my eyes. You don't have to hide the old love from me."
An Xiaohuan was full of grievances and spoke in a hurry.
"What old love? There is no such thing."
"Whose lies did you listen to?"
"Since I was little, I have lived for you and only you."
"My Lady Concubine Chun, I have only met her a few times and have only spoken a few words to her, so I don't think we know each other."
"Why is there an old love?"
Ning Yunxi's mouth corners turned down, looking depressed.
"It was Concubine Chun who told me herself."
"She said that you two were in love, but she didn't expect that I would show up and take her lover away."
"She also affectionately calls you Huanlang."
Knowing her thoughts, An Xiaohuan smiled and felt happy.
"Xi'er, are you jealous?"
Ning Yunxi had a worried look on his face and looked sad.
"Empress Chun is beautiful and flawless, while I am ordinary. In comparison, I feel ashamed and jealous."
"I guess you know that I'm ugly, so you deliberately concealed it from me to prevent me from getting jealous and making trouble."
An Xiaohuan corrected it calmly.
"nonsense."
"I am not qualified to comment on the appearance of Concubine Chun, so I will not say more."
"You have a beautiful face. I think you are the most beautiful woman in history."
Ning Yunxi glanced at him and smiled gently.
"He's good at talking."
An Xiaohuan stretched out his arms and held her in his arms.
"I still remember last year, when I asked you if you were willing to go with me to the borderland? You agreed without hesitation."
"You said you couldn't bear to leave your family, but you also couldn't bear to leave me."
"At that time, I was too stupid. I foolishly thought that if I left the Emperor and Emperor Yue, I would be free and we would be able to be together forever. Little did I know that I would fall into an even more terrifying trap..."
He lowered his eyes and looked at the person in his arms.
"To be with the emperor is like being with a tiger. We should not stay with the emperor for long. Prince Li is treacherous and cunning. There is no place for us to rest under his command."
"Why don't we just go away and never ask about worldly affairs again, okay?"
Ning Yunxi still agreed without hesitation.
"it is good."
She changed the subject.
"Then, how will you explain to the Emperor? Your Highness Prince Li, how will you deal with it? Will your father, mother, and the rest of the family be implicated by us?"
An Xiaohuan looked far into the distance, gazing at the morning light.
"I have my own arrangements. Nothing will happen to them."
"I have already chosen a place to live in seclusion. I will make sure no one can find us."
Ning Yunxi asked worriedly.
"My dear family, have you made all arrangements for my clan members? Are there no worries?"
An Xiaohuan was surprised and suspicious.
"What happened to them? What do they need me to arrange?"
"I heard that you have almost cut off contact with them."
"Is there any bond between you two?"
Ning Yunxi was anxious.
"The rumor is false."
“We never broke off.”
"I'm just busy. I don't go home often and I can't take care of my family."
She was in a state of panic.
"Once I leave, King Di Jin will definitely not let them go."
"What can I do?"
An Xiaohuan was stumped.
"This……"
The foreshadowing was just right, and Ning Yunxi introduced the main topic without leaving any trace.
"I guessed that you intended to rescue me or take me away, so I asked to see King Di Jin in advance to negotiate."
"He said he would not let me go until I accomplished one thing."
Hearing a glimmer of hope, An Xiaohuan was delighted.
"What's the matter?"
Ning Yunxi answered softly.
"Collect a little bit of the Holy Lord's blood."
The answer was so unexpected that An Xiaohuan found it unbelievable.
"King Dijin, what do you want this for?"
Ning Yunxi is timid and lovely.
"I dare not speculate on the prince's thoughts, nor do I dare to ask more questions."
"Anyway, he just wants it."
She was overwhelmed and frowned.
"However, the emperor is still suspicious and does not trust me at all. Not to mention collecting personal belongings, I can't even ask for an audience with the emperor."
"Your Highness made such an unreasonable request, perhaps he was deliberately making things difficult for me to stop me from abandoning him."
An Xiaohuan immediately came up with an idea.
"I have a way to get the things of the emperor."
Ning Yunxi asked even though he knew the answer.
"any solution?"
Fearing that she would worry, An Xiaohuan did not answer.
"Don't worry about it, just go back home and wait for me."
"When I'm done, I'll send you a letter."
Ning Yunxi expressed her concern.
"Don't take risks for me."
An Xiaohuan smiled easily, calming her anxiety.
"Don't worry, Xi'er. I won't be in danger."
Ning Yunxi asked persistently.
"Then tell me what the method is. I want to hear it. Is it dangerous?"
An Xiaohuan coaxed and persuaded.
"Be good, Xi'er, Mo Wen, we haven't seen each other for a long time, I want to give you a surprise."
"Just listen to me, okay?"
Ning Yunxi pretended to be alert.
"What a surprise? Are you sure there's no danger?"
An Xiaohuan seemed to have a plan in mind.
"determine."
"It's getting late. I'll make the arrangements now. You go back home."
"Remember, go shopping or go out for a meal every day so that I can send you a letter."
Ning Yunxi obeyed obediently.
"it is good."
An Xiaohuan hid in the dark and escorted Ning Yunxi back home.
Afterwards, Gu Yuanqiong secretly sent him a letter, asking him to go to the inn in the western suburbs of Shengjing, where he had a deep sleep by the window at noon.
