After listening to Leng Yan'er's words about her and Mu Yan's experiences along the way with gloomy eyes, Xia Yifeng suddenly felt like he was being watched and followed. This was something he had never felt before.
Was he too relaxed, or was there too much going on this time, so he didn't pay too much attention to it? Or maybe he underestimated the two women, Mu Yan and Leng Yan'er...?
"Leng Yan'er" called Leng Yan'er's name with a serious expression. Xia Yifeng frowned and suddenly said: "A lot of things have happened in Cangming Congress recently. Yan'er is sick. I don't want her to stay."
Here you..."
"Your Majesty." Before Xia Yifeng could finish what he said, Leng Yan'er sighed helplessly, interrupted him, and said: "It's useless, even if you and I use tricks to get Yan'er to other places, in the end
She will definitely come back here because she has already met Murong Zixuan."
Seeing Xia Yifeng's eyes twitching, Leng Yan'er knew clearly that this incident was something Xia Yifeng had not expected.
"Yan'er said that Murong Zixuan came to see her last night. As for what he said, I don't know."
Lowering her eyes, Xia Yifeng listened to Leng Yan'er's words calmly. After a moment of silence, Xia Yifeng stood up slowly, then glanced at Leng Yan'er meaningfully, and said softly: "I have some things to deal with, Yan
Son, I’ll leave it to you.”
Looking at Xia Yifeng who turned to leave with hesitation, Leng Yan'er suddenly had a bad feeling.
What, when will it appear again? This kind of anxiety had not disappeared when Mu Yan woke up.
Opening her eyes drowsily, Mu Yan looked at the empty space around her, and there was a flash of gloom in her eyes that even she didn't notice.
Curling his lips, Mu Yan put on his mink fur and found Leng Yan'er's expression when he saw that something was wrong with Leng Yan'er. Mu Yan quickly asked: "What happened?"
"Your Majesty, he's gone." Leng Yaner looked at Mu Yan and said in a low voice, "You said you have something to deal with, so let me take care of you."
Clenching her fists suddenly, Mu Yan felt an inexplicable sour feeling in her heart. She knew that for that man Xia Yifeng, it was all nonsense to have no illusions about being by her side all the time!
Fu Yi sat next to Leng Yan'er. Mu Yan pretended not to care and ate the cakes on the table, and then asked casually: "What else did he say?"
"I didn't say anything but..." Looking at Mu Yan with a solemn expression, Leng Yan'er said her thoughts in a low voice, "I always felt that something was wrong with his expression at that time. I told him that Murong Zixuan came to see you.
After that, he left Yan'er, do you think the emperor went to find that Murong Zixuan?"
Leng Yaner's words made Mu Yan, who was already in a complicated mood, become even more irritable and restless. With his head lowered, Mu Yan tried hard to calm down, and then analyzed Xia Yifeng's behavior up to now. If he really wanted to treat Murong Zi
If Xuan takes action, he will definitely discuss countermeasures with Qi Heichu and Tang Wei
The blood-stained clothes on Xia Yifeng's body came to mind. Concerning the speculation that Xia Yifeng and others had been hiding in the palace, Mu Yan was somewhat certain that Xia Yifeng had left now and must have gone back to the palace to study Murong Zixuan.
Did you take action? But, did Xia Yifeng, who had always been calm and composed, leave in such a hurry? Sneaking away alone without even waiting for himself to wake up?
After repeatedly speculating on Xia Yifeng's thoughts, although Mu Yan was a little concerned about his safety, he was not so impulsive as to go out to look for him with Leng Yan'er.
Mu Yan stayed in the mansion as usual. In addition to taking medicine on time to maintain his health, Mu Yan's mind was constantly thinking about the bottle of poison that Murong Zixuan gave him.
Two days passed without incident, with no news from Xia Yifeng and no sign of Murong Zixuan.
Sitting alone in front of the window, Mu Yan was warming himself by the fire and admiring the snowy scene outside the window. From time to time, he would straighten his long hair that was blown by the wind, and touch the mink fur that he was wearing. Mu Yan remained quiet like this.
Sitting there, Mu Yan frowned slightly until he saw Leng Yan'er running back from outside with a panicked look on his face, then stood up from the chair, looked at Leng Yan'er in confusion, and asked: "
What happened?"
Although Leng Yan'er was not as calm as Mu Yan, she was definitely not so flustered by a small incident. She stood in the yard, breathing heavily, with gloomy eyes.
Looking at his Leng Yaner, Mu Yan asked again, "What's going on?"
"Xia Yifeng, Xia Yifeng, he was arrested."
Like a bolt from the blue, Mu Yan's mind went blank for a moment. He strode out of the room and came to Leng Yan'er's side. Mu Yan asked in disbelief: "Where did you hear the news?"
With Xia Yifeng's skills and brains, how could he fall into the hands of others? Not to mention, beside Xia Yifeng, there were two men, Qi Heichu and Tang Wei. So Mu Yan had no idea what Leng Yan'er said.
No doubt
"Notices have been posted on the streets and alleys, and I've seen them too." She was trembling as she told Mu Yan what she had just seen. Leng Yan'er closed her eyes forbearingly, not daring to touch Mu Yan's face.
Eyes: "Just now when I was wandering outside, I suddenly saw my mother. She told me to take you out of Cangming Country as soon as possible. Originally, I didn't understand the reason why she said that. However, after seeing Murong Zixuan personally guarding
When I looked at Xia Yifeng in the prison car, I understood everything!"
Prison car? Murong Zixuan is guarding Xia Yifeng?
Mu Yan, who became more and more confused as he listened, quickly analyzed the truth of the matter. If Xia Yifeng was really caught by Murong Zixuan, then what method did Murong Zixuan use to make Xia Yifeng miss? With real swords and guns,
Murong Zixuan couldn't even defeat himself, let alone Xia Yifeng? If the person who was caught was not Xia Yifeng, then that person would never escape Murong Zixuan's eyes. Murong Zixuan would take a person disguised as Xia Yifeng seriously and show up in person to take custody.
Is that right? Murong Zixuan doesn’t have that leisurely mind...
The heavy feeling in his chest made Mu Yan feel almost suffocated. He closed his eyes tightly. Mu Yan stood there in silence for a long time, struggling alone.
If Xia Yifeng is really caught, what should she do? Do nothing to save her? Does Murong Zixuan do this because he wants her to take the initiative to find him?
Slowly opening her eyes, Mu Yan looked unfocused into the distance. The cold wind whistled past her ears, making Mu Yan very clear that she was not dreaming now. She cast her eyes on Leng Yan'er.
Yan gritted his teeth, and then said softly: "Take me to the place where you saw Xia Yifeng"
Nodding heavily, Leng Yaner took Mu Yan to the street and followed the carriage's tracks.
Looking coldly at the palace in the distance, Mu Yan's heart once again felt the long-lost pain. He glanced calmly at Leng Yan'er beside him. Mu Yan didn't know what he should choose, let alone why he would.
I have this dilemma
After going through so many things, could she still not let go of Xia Yifeng's life and death?
Coldly laughing at his own cowardice, Mu Yan sighed in despair and silently turned his head to look at Leng Yan'er. The corners of Mu Yan's mouth raised slightly, revealing a bitter smile, "You go back first, I can go alone."
"
Pulling Mu Yan's wrist hard, Leng Yan'er looked at Mu Yan's smile in shock and asked in disbelief: "You want to go into the palace to see Murong Zixuan?"
Mu Yan's nod made Leng Yan'er's mind go into chaos without even thinking about it. Leng Yan'er firmly denied Mu Yan's move, "No, if you go in, it will be difficult to come out again, do you understand? Besides, even if
You met Murong Zixuan, how do you know that he can really let Xia Yifeng live? We haven't met Tang Wei and Qi Heichu yet, and we don't know what happened and the truth. You can't be so impulsive Yan'er
!”
"It's not that I'm impulsive, but that there's almost no time." Mu Yan smiled sadly, looked up at the sleepy sky and said, "I can wait, Xia Yifeng can wait, but Xi'er, I can't wait any longer.
No matter what conditions Murong Zixuan will offer, in short, what I must get now is to get the ice red snow lotus to save Xi'er. I can give up everything, but I can't give up my daughter's life."
Shaking off Leng Yaner's hand, Mu Yan walked towards the palace, stepping on the snow step by step. Listening to the crunching sound of the snow being stepped on, Mu Yan frowned and stopped, then turned back.
He turned his head and looked at Leng Yaner, who had been following him, and asked: "I asked you to go back, didn't you hear me?"
"Even if I hear it, I can't go back." Leng Yan'er walked to Mu Yan's side with twinkling eyes. Leng Yan'er looked at Mu Yan extremely seriously and said, "From the day you and Fourth Master appeared in front of me, I
I can never go back. This mission of accompanying you to Cangming Country is to ensure your safety. This is what Feng Ruowu and Fourth Master have told me many times. If anything happens to you, I will have no shame in going back.
I don’t have the shame to see Fourth Master again.”
Leng Yaner's few words were like another stab in Mu Yan's already fragile heart.
Clenching his fists and letting his nails dig into his flesh, Mu Yan didn't care and walked straight towards the palace gate. He didn't stop until a guard put a knife to his neck and blocked his way.
He turned around and said in a low voice: "Please tell me, please, that Mu Yan needs to see the emperor for something."
