Jiang Ying didn’t say anything and just sized up Nan Xing. Nan Xing also let him size him up in silence.
Finally, they both said at the same time, “You’ve changed.”
Nan Xing suddenly laughed. “We haven’t seen each other for so many years. We must be old. You have a wife and children, but I’m still alone.”
Jiang Ying did not reply. He looked not far away. “This is not a place to chat. Let’s go to Prince Jin’s Residence.”
“I thought you were going to ban me from Prince Jin’s residence forever,” Nan Xing said.
Jiang Ying did not answer. He instructed the guard beside him to tell Ning Yue that he would return later.
With that, he turned and walked away. Nan Xing followed him.
The two of them walked on the streets of the capital one after another. Soon, they arrived at Prince Jin’s residence. Nan Xing looked at the plaque with mixed feelings.
“It’s been fifteen years. I thought I’d never come here again,” said South Star.
Jiang Ying suddenly stopped and turned to stare at Nan Xing. Nan Xing felt his scalp tingle. “What? It’s been so many years. Do you still blame me?”
“If I blame you, you won’t be able to enter Prince Jin’s Residence,” Jiang Ying said.
Nan Xing smiled bitterly. “Yes, if you blame me, I won’t be able to walk in. I was the one who couldn’t walk out of the cage I drew myself. If I didn’t know that you had children, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have been able to forgive myself for the rest of my life.”
Jiang Ying did not say anything. Actually, he did not hate Nan Xing. He just felt very uncomfortable at that time, because he was the only son of Prince Jin and Princess Consort Jin.
If he could not have children, Prince Jin would have no descendants. Other than feeling guilty about his parents, he had no other thoughts.
They had played with Nan Xing since they were young. Could he still kill him?
Besides, when Nan Xing returned from the Black City Kingdom, the three of them were only fifteen years old. Nan Xing did not do it on purpose.
They were playful. When they went out to play together, Nan Xing accidentally injured Jiang Ying’s lower body, causing him to be uninterested in any woman.
In addition, he was a clean freak. As long as she was not the wife he had set his mind on, he would never touch another woman.
However, the injury there had also traumatized him.
Due to a mistake, he was drugged and had a child with Ning Yue.
Seeing that Jiang Ying was silent, Nan Xing suddenly said, “I’m sorry, Jiang Ying.”
Jiang Ying suddenly had mixed feelings.
“Actually, I haven’t blamed you for a long time. I’ve thought about it seriously over the years. We were both young back then. You didn’t do it on purpose.” If he really didn’t have children, it would be fate. Fortunately, the heavens had doted on him and given him a pair of twins.
Nan Xing suddenly did not know what to say. He stood there and stared at the floor in a daze.
It was not until Jiang Ying walked into Prince Jin’s residence that he came back to his senses and followed him into the residence.
The furnishings in Prince Jin’s residence were still the same, but Prince Jin and Princess Consort Jin were not in the residence. He could not help but ask, “Where are your parents? I haven’t seen them in a long time.”
“They’re at the border,” Jiang Ying said. “Is that what you came to me to say?”
“No, I really had something to tell you.” Nan Xing said, “The current situation of the Black City Kingdom is different from what you think. The Black City Kingdom has already been succeeded by the new emperor. The new emperor wants to return to the Great Yun Nation, but those warlike people are unwilling.”
He briefly explained the situation to Jiang Ying. Jiang frowned and asked, “Is Lian Xin one of the militants?”
Nan Xing tilted his head and looked at Jiang Ying. “He betrayed his country.”
Jiang Ying looked at Nan Xing in shock. “What do you mean?”
Nan Xing explained this matter. It turned out that Lian Xin was the former emperor’s most trusted younger brother. Almost all the decisions the former emperor made were suggested by Lian Xian.
Ever since the current emperor took power, Lian Xin could not be trusted. He began to use his military power to threaten the emperor.
Lian Xin advocated independence, but the current emperor thought that they were originally subjects of the Great Yun Nation. Their roots were in the Great Yun Nation, and they would return to their roots in the future.
Ever since the independence of the Black City Kingdom, they could no longer return to the territory of the Great Yun Nation to see their relatives.
