Nan Xing’s expression turned cold. He said, “Didn’t you come to ask me to enter the palace?”
“Yes, yes, yes. The emperor said to invite the two of you into the palace,” Liu Yao said.
“Lord Nan, you and the princess came out unscathed just now. Can you tell me how you did it?” Liu Yao asked.
When Ning Yue heard this, she understood what Lian Xin was up to. Lian Xin wanted to find a secret passage in the Nan residence!
If the secret passage of the Nan residence was announced, it would be a huge blow to Nan Xing, and Lian Xin’s actions were meant to intimidate others.
Nan Xing was the minister the late emperor valued the most, and if he wanted to sit firmly on the throne, he had to subdue the late emperor’s people.
Using Nan Xing to intimidate the others was the fastest choice.
“I ran out for my life,” Nan Xing said indifferently.
Liu Yaoming knew that Nan Xing was lying, but he did not dare to expose him directly. He took a deep breath and replied with a smile, “I see.”
“Did the emperor arrange a place for us to stay tonight?” Nan Xing asked.
“Lord Nan, if you and the princess don’t have a place to stay, follow me into the palace. There are many empty palaces in the palace,” Liu Yao said.
“Alright, who knows if the palace is safe?” Ning Yue said.
Although they planned to go to the palace after leaving the Nan residence, when Liu Yao suddenly asked them to enter the palace, Ning Yue did not want to enter.
She did not believe that Lian Xin would still dare to find trouble with her!
Suddenly, the rapid sound of hooves interrupted their conversation.
The three of them looked in the direction of the voice and saw a shadow flash over in the night. It was so fast that they suspected that they had seen something wrong.
The secret guards realized that something was wrong and were about to come out of the dark to protect Ning Yue, but it was too late.
Ning Yue was about to dodge when she realized that she was pulled back. Her expression froze. Damn it, which bastard was this again?!
Nan Xing was about to attack, but this riding figure instinctively made him not want to resist.
He couldn’t even explain why.
Ning Yue felt the world spin and she lost her balance. When she finally stabilized and was about to attack the other party, she fell into a scorching embrace.
The unique smell of that person assaulted her nose. Even if she couldn’t see his face, Ning Yue knew who was here.
“Jiang Ying!” Ning Yue called out.
“Sit properly,” Jiang Ying called out.
Nan Xing reacted and shouted, “Someone, chase after them!”
What a joke! If anything happened to Ning Yue in his hands, would Jiang Ying still let him off? He panicked.
“Yes.” His guard took the order and left.
The guards ran forward like lightning, but no matter how fast they were, they could not be faster than Jiang Ying’s fine steed.
In the blink of an eye, the horse and figure were gone.
Nan Xing was furious. He did not even see who took Ning Yue away and did not know if Ning Yue was in danger.
At this moment, the horse that had snatched Ning Yue away turned back. Nan Xing could vaguely see Ning Yue in another person’s arms.
He wanted to instruct the guards to get ready, but before he could speak, he heard the person on the horse speak from afar. “Nan Xing, get ready.” “Heir?” Nan Xing called.
“Yes, it’s me.” With that, Jiang Ying turned his horse around and ran out.
When Nan Xing found out that it was Jiang Ying, his eyes widened. No, wasn’t Jiang Ying detained and imprisoned? H-how did he come out?
On second thought, he might have used some other method. At the same time, he had exposed something. Nan Xing felt a little helpless.
At the side, Liu Yao’s eyes were about to bulge out. He couldn’t believe it. He had clearly sent Jiang Ying to prison with his own hands. Why had he appeared?
The emperor would definitely punish him. Thinking of this, Liu Yao was extremely afraid. He had been with Lian Xin for a long time and more or less understood his personality.
For example, if he did not find out the reason now, Lian Xin would definitely think that it was because of him. What should he do?
“Let’s go to the palace,” Nan Xing said to Liu Yao.
If Lian Xin wanted them to enter the palace, but Ning Yue and Jiang Ying had already left the city, someone else had to enter, right?
At this moment, Jiang Ying brought Ning Yue to a small courtyard in the suburbs.
Ning Yue was very puzzled. Wasn’t this the territory of the Black City Kingdom? Why did Jiang Ying have a small courtyard here?
Moreover, from the looks of it, Jiang Ying was quite familiar with this route.
She sized up the manor and calmed herself down. She was more or less caught off guard by Jiang Ying carrying her on a horse, and her shy face was a little hot..
