8 min read1,888 words
The regent Jun Qianye had an extraordinary status in Dongli. The only fate for those who offended him was death.
They didn’t want to die, but Nangong Ning must die! If Nangong Ning really got into the regent’s house, their task would not be finished.
“Stop them from entering the regency house!” The leader ordered in a cold voice.
“Yes!”
When the voice was just out, dozens of figures rushed out like lightning.
Ning ran on Su yuan’s lead. They rushed forward desperately and Su Yuan said, “They try to stop us in front of the palace!”
Nangong Ning also found out and said, “Your speed must be a little faster, we must enter the palace.”
Su yuan snorted and gritted his teeth. He quickened his pace again.
The person who followed closely behind could not catch up with him, so the leader groped in his sleeve and found a small box of arrows and crossbows.
With a click, a small black arrow shot out like electric shock , which aimed at Ning’s neck straightly.
Su Yuan reacted in a split second.He snatched her and flung her forward rudely.
Nangong Ning was not under the guard she screamed about because of fear.
Su Yuan stopped and drew his sword to block the arrow.
Nangong Ning at this time was falling because Su Yuan just threw her out.
It was the wall of the regency palace. If she fell into it, she would be very “safe”. But just now, Su Yuan’s strength was not enough, so she wasn’t going to fall into the wall. She was going to hit it.
According to this angle and force, it was just her face to hit that, if it did, at least her nose bone would be broken。
Nangong Ning was terrified for a moment.
Blocking back the arrow, Su Yuan also responded to save Nangong Ning. But this time, it was too late.
“My lady!”
Nangong Ning was desperate at this time.
She didn’t want to die, and she didn’t want to be disfigured! Were there plastic surgeons in this day and age?
How unlucky she was! Su Yuan! I hate you so much!
Her face dashed against the wall as she screamed.
“Hmmmmm!”
At the moment, Nangong Ning thought his face was to be smashed. Suddenly her vision went black. Her face was suddenly blocked by something and her breath a stagnant. What’s more, there was a force supporting her body and her body could not help sweeping up. Then, she was surrounded into a hug.
Nangong Ning was terrified for a while that the brain might be broken up.
At this time, she heard someone shout in a cold voice, “Who dares to attack the palace? This is unforgivable!”
She gave a sudden jolt. Ning recognized this voice! This’s the guy called Wei Chu who was always following Jun Qianye.
Her heart was pounding. When Ning raised her eyes, she saw a face. And for an instant her brain was humming.
She was in the arms of Jun Qianye.
At this time of the palace, Jun Qianye wore a gorgeous black robe and looked. And Ning was pulling in the arms of Jun Qianye.
There was no sense of tenderness in his movements, so she was pulled in front of him like a chicken in his arms.
Nangong Ning just remembered that what blocked her face was his sleeves.
That was to say, in a pinch, he came to play a hero to save the beauty.
Looking at his perfect face which made her heart beat so fast, plus she was just rescued by them, Nangong Ning felt that she was going to cry.
“My…my lord…”
“Shut up!” Jun Qianye didn’t give him any favors and said in a cold voice.
Ning was speechless.
At this time, Chu Wei who was standing on the side raised his hand. At the moment, there appeared a few shadows from nowhere which rushed in front of the killers who were still hesitating.
The reason why the killers were so hesitant was that the killers almost completed the task and there was room for negotiation. So they wanted to discuss with the regent to take Nangong Ning to them. But they did not expect that Jun Qianye did not give them the slightest opportunity.
“My lord, we are An…” The lead killer did not finish his explainsnation and was killed by Wei Chu’s sword.
At this time, the rest of the killers had no longer dare to fantasy any chance to finish their tasks and turned around to escape.
But it was too late.
But at the moment, because of the hidden guards of the palace, a dozen murderous killers were going to the hell.
This scene made Nangong Ning frozen.
“They…
Jun Qianye looked down at her.
Nangong Ning could not feel any fantasy. He felt distinctly from his murderous eyes that Jun Qianye want to strangle her.
“My lord, I have something to discuss with you.” She swallowed her saliva with difficulty.
Looking at her, there was coldness flowing in his eyes and he seemed to think about the truth of her words.
Nangong Ning swallowed her saliva again. She did not want to die, but she felt Jun Qianye really wanted her to die.
“I’m really busy.”
Jun Qianye raised his lip line but that smile let her skin feel numb. He said, “Good.”
“Awwwww!”
There was a scream. Su Yuan was shocked and found that his noble lady was thrown into the wall.
He just threw Nangong Ning to save her. But the regent for what?
Wei Chu was a little stunned and wanted to say something. But Jun Qianye got up and went to the palace.
He turned and looked at Su Yuan.
Su Yuan looked calm and said nothing.
Wei Chu asked, “Are you the person of Nangong Ning?”
“Yes.” It was Su Yuan’s slight voice.
He send staff Nangong Ning to the regent palace before, but he just handed it over to the servant. He even did not enter the palace gate , not to mention, communicate with the palace people.
Wei Chu’s eyes fell on Su Yuan. For a moment, he even said, “Since Miss Nangong entered into the palace, you can come together.”
Su Yuan did not refuse.
At this time, Nangong Ning had nowhere to go, and so did he.
What’s more, as Nangong Ning’s bodyguard, he must follow her.
At this time, Ning bended over in the regent’s garden.
Strangely, when Jun Qianye threw her in with his big and fierce strength, she thought she would certainly fall to pieces. But she just fell into the mud and did not get hurt.
“Bah!”
Spitting off the grass leaves from her mouth, Nangong Ning just raised her eyes to find a man fall to his knees in front of her. But her eyes did not look down, which still let Ning shocked.
“Nangong Ning, you are very good!”
Nangong Ning was shocked.
She would never think Jun Qianye was in praise of her, but she did not dare to refute either. She just played silly and said, “My lord, I am good. How about you?”
Jun Qianye’s eyesight went down and found Ning’s dirty small face which tried to please him. This look made him feel angry.
“Last time, you brought trouble to our gate. And this time, you almost brought trouble into our house. Nangong Ning, do you think I am very easy to talk to?”
Nangong Ning hurriedly shook her head. How dared she!
“No, I’m not!”
“What’s the matter?” Jun Qianye closed her eyes slightly and obviously didn’t believe her.
But Nangong Ning was determined to calm down. Since she came here, then she would try it.
How did you know how you were going to die if you did’t try?
Holding the determination to die, Nangong Ning suddenly curved lips with a smile and said, “It’s not too good to say that.”
Jun Qianye narrowed his eyes. This dead wench! How dared she to speak condition with him?
After a moment, Nangong Ning entered the room where she had lived before, Wen Wan and other maids waited on her to dress up.
Nangong Ning was melodramatic, but Jun Qianyue disliked her, so he let her clean up to see him.
Nangong Ning also agreed because she now also needed time to think about how to talk with Jun Qianye.
By the time she was dressed, however, she could think of nothing.
She wanted to linger, but here came Zong.
“Miss Nangong, you are back at last!”
Looking at the exciting face of Zong, Nangong Ning twisted her eyebrow, asking, “Fat old man, are you sent over by your lord?”
Zong shook his head and said, “No, I heard you came back, so I came to see you.”
“Come back?” Nangong Nning’s face twitched.
She was thrown in.
Zong nodded his head and said, “I knew you would come back sooner or later. You are my lord’s fiancee, of course, you’d better stay at our palace.”
Nangong Ning felt the chat with Zong could not go on. The old man was probably the only one who admitted to believe her and Jun Qianye’s engagement.
In fact, however, the engagement was of no use at all.
“I’m going to see your lord.” Nangong Ning was a little desperate.
She didn’t know how to talk to Jun Qianye.
Zong nodded his head and said, “I’ll go with you.”
Nangong Ning looked at him strangely. Zong smiled and said, “ Let’s have a chat.”
Nangong Ning was speechless, but she was also too lazy to refuse. And she went to Jun Qianye’s study room with Zong together.
“Miss Nangong, did you really export all the industries of your Nangong family?” Zong looked at Ning with a very exciting face.
Nangong Ning was not surprised, for this matter was spread to the whole capital. It was not strange that Zong knew that.
She nodded.
He said excitingly and confusingly, “I really did not expect that Miss Nangong you have such strong force.”
Nangong Ning smiled with bitterness. She did really have courage and the consequence of the courage was that she was now in a sad situation, and even she wanted Jun Qianye to protect her. Zong said, “If you wanted to be the princess of our lord, you must have a bit of boldness.”
Nangong Ning finally could not help asking, looking at the old, “Fat old man, why do you think I can marry your lord?”
She didn’t even think about it.
People outside also thought it was impossible for Jun Qianye to marry her.
Fat old man, what reason did you have to believe this
Zong nodded and said, “Of course! Ah, isn’t there engagement? Or was it given by a royal decree?”
“You think your lord is so respectful?” Nangong Ning’s little face turned green.
Zong nodded again, “Of course!”
Nangong Ning was speechless.
She felt that she was not at all in line with Zong.
Zong looked at her tangled appearance and suddenly came over in low voice, “Miss Nangong, you are the first lady who can live in the palace. Before this time, even if this was Miss An and my lord did not treat her so well.”
