When Xiao Dingcheng realized this, it was too late to react... Even when a rain of arrows was shot from the city wall, his mind went blank and he didn't know what to do.
This moment seemed to be very long, so long that he could even clearly see Sheng Nuan's eyes looking at him, which were full of relief and calm.
This moment seemed very short, so short that he had no chance to regret or make amends...
The next moment, several black shadows seemed to appear out of thin air and flew up the city wall like ghosts. At the same time, a figure took Sheng Nuan into his arms.
Sheng Nuan saw Bai Chengze wearing a silver mask...
They had broken up the last time they separated, and he didn't look back with red eyes.
But at this moment, he looked at her without blinking and whispered: "Sister, don't be afraid, I'm coming."
The arrows shot from the city wall were blocked by him with his body, preventing Sheng Nuan from being injured at all...
When Sheng Nuan saw the arrow that shot into his back, her heart beat violently, and she couldn't tell whether it was confusion or throbbing...
That day, when asked three questions by Mantra Gu, her answer every time was "Xiao Dingcheng".
He gritted his teeth and left without looking back with red eyes... She thought he would never see her again.
But he still came.
The warmth in his eyes was just like yesterday, still protecting her tightly...
War drums sounded behind him, war horses neighed, and the Suzaku camp officially attacked the city.
This battle ended faster than expected. Xiao Dingcheng knew that it was not him who led the troops well, but the people who cooperated with him had been preparing for many days.
Sheng Nuan was no longer seen in the field. Xiao Dingcheng sent someone to contact Xue Nan after entering the city, and then met the old lady and princess who were protected by Xue Nan and others.
Seeing Xiao Dingcheng and Liu Rumian behind him, the old lady, supported by Aunt Gui, hurried forward to greet her with anxious eyes: "Where is Sheng Yatou? Where is Sheng Yatou?"
Xiao Dingcheng's expression darkened.
The old lady swayed: "What's wrong with her? What happened to her?"
Xiao Dingcheng quickly comforted the old lady: "Grandma, don't worry, Nuannuan is fine... I will pick her up soon."
"Okay, okay, it's okay." The old lady took a long breath and held the wooden box in her hand: "She also left something with me, please bring her back quickly."
The old lady is not stupid, she already understands that Sheng Nuan has protected her and her daughter-in-law. During this time, the old lady has almost regarded Sheng Nuan as her own granddaughter in her heart.
Seeing that she didn't come back now, I felt panicked for no reason.
Across the way, Xiao Dingcheng looked at the small wooden box in the old lady's hand, paused, and asked in a low voice: "What is Nuannuan entrusting you to keep?"
The old lady was stunned: "I don't know, I didn't open it to look."
Xiao Dingcheng walked over: "Leave it to me, grandma."
The old lady hesitated for a moment, then handed the box over: "That's fine, you give it to her and then pick her up quickly."
Xiao Dingcheng nodded: "Okay."
The princess stood supporting the wall with red eyes, and said to Xiao Dingcheng: "We are fine, go and do your business."
Shengjing City has been captured, but the Imperial City has not yet been defeated. What Xiao Dingcheng has to do is not over yet.
Xiao Dingcheng hummed in a low voice, left a team of reliable guards to protect him, and turned around and walked out.
From beginning to end, Xiao Dingcheng did not say a word to Liu Rumian. When Xiao Dingcheng left, Liu Rumian saw the old lady and the princess, her eyes flashed slightly, and she forced a smile and said: "Old madam, my husband has come back, we don't have to worry anymore.
,I……"
Before she finished speaking, the old lady turned around and left with Aunt Gui as if she had not seen her.
Liu Rumian froze suddenly, and then forced out a smile: "Mother..."
The princess looked cold: "I don't dare to take this as a mother."
Then he turned and left...
Liu Rumian stood there biting her lip and clenching her fists, but no one paid attention to her for a long time. She could only find a room by herself and go in to rest, feeling scared and confused at the same time.
Xiao Dingcheng rebelled!
Then will he become emperor?
If Xiao Dingcheng became the emperor, wouldn't she...
For a moment, Liu Rumian even forgot her previous fear, her heart beat violently, and her eyes were extremely bright.
Xiao Dingcheng didn't know that he was already the emperor in Liu Rumian's heart..
He stopped after walking outside the door, hesitated for a moment, and slowly opened the box in his hand. When he saw the contents of the box, his eyes softened to the extreme.
The two candy figures next to each other were lying quietly in the box... they were the ones they bought when they were shopping for lanterns that night.
She expressed her disdain at the time, but she secretly regarded the candy man as a treasure and carefully preserved it to this day...
Xiao Dingcheng pursed his lips and put the box into his arms.
When she heard the customer service reminding Xiao Dingcheng that her favorability score was at full value, Sheng Nuan had just taken the antidote and was sitting in a flower hall in a courtyard in the city.
The flower hall is huge and luxurious, not affected by the war outside.
Sheng Nuan was sitting on the chair. Opposite him, the doctor was bandaging Bai Chengze's wound.
After hearing the customer service prompt, Sheng Nuan let out a long sigh.
Xiao Dingcheng's favorability value is at full value, which means that this task has basically been completed, and all that is left is... discarded like worn shoes!
This is simply not easy!
Sheng Nuan raised his head and looked at Bai Chengze who was treating the wound opposite. His shoulder was almost penetrated by the arrow, and he was wrapped in thick gauze to barely stop the bleeding.
Sheng Nuan's mood is very complicated...
That night, she chose between Bai Chengze and Xiao Dingcheng to save Xiao Dingcheng. In fact, in the final analysis, she chose her own life between herself and Bai Chengze.
But today, Bai Chengze chose to protect her between himself and her.
The speed and force of the arrows shot from the city wall were terrifying. No one knew which arrow was fatal... But he just held her tightly in his arms and blocked all dangers for her with his back.
.
Sheng Nuan was so shocked at that moment that she almost forgot that she could actually move...
At this moment, seeing Bai Chengze sitting there and being bandaged by the doctor, Sheng Nuan subconsciously wanted to speak, but she didn't know what to say.
Instead, it was Bai Chengze who noticed that she was hesitant to speak and spoke up first.
His tone was as gentle as ever: "Sister, stay here with peace of mind. It won't be too late to leave after everything is over."
Sheng Nuan was stunned.
She subconsciously wanted to say that she didn't want to leave, but she felt it was a bit strange to say so.
At this time, Bai Chengze put on his clothes, stood up and smiled at her: "I have something else to do, so I won't accompany my sister."
Sheng Nuan knew that he was going to attack the imperial city, but his tone sounded like he was going for a walk.
Sheng Nuan stood up subconsciously: "I'll go too."
Bai Chengze was injured, and she had martial arts skills. She might be able to help him if he encountered any danger.
Before Sheng Nuan finished speaking, Bai Chengze's eyes flashed with gloom.
Does she want to go too?
Want to find a chance to meet Xiao Dingcheng?
"Sister, just stay here with peace of mind..."
Bai Chengze's tone was still gentle, but he turned and left before he finished speaking, not giving Sheng Nuan a chance to speak again.
Walking forward, Bai Chengze's eyes were filled with depression, and he closed his eyes several times before he managed to suppress it.
When he walked to the rockery and saw Su Lan standing there, Bai Chengze stopped and said coldly: "How are the things prepared?"
Su Lan had a complicated expression: "The Taoist priest said that he will be fine soon."
Bai Chengze's eyes softened slightly.
"Master..." Su Lan hesitated again and again before finally speaking.
Bai Chengze raised his eyes to look at her.
Su Lan lowered her head and cautiously advised: "Master, do you really believe that the Taoist Priest can make the Immortal Binding Rope?"
Bai Chengze remained silent.
The next moment, he stepped outside and said coldly: "When I come back, I want to see that she is still there."
Su Lan bowed: "Yes."
Bai Chengze took the armor from the soldier next to him without looking back...
