"Don't turn back …"

Shen Lingjue quickly said these words.

He didn't want her to see him in such a state, to see that he was losing control.

He didn't dare breathe out loud, afraid that his heavy breathing would betray his desire for her.

After calming himself down, he wiped his face and quickly left the soup pond. He took off his silk shirt and changed into a clean set of clothes.

When Feng Ningyan heard his voice, her tensed body immediately relaxed. When she mustered the courage to look at him, she saw that he was already dressed.

"The moon is beautiful. I'll wait for you to admire the moon."

With that, he turned around and left.

The crystal beaded curtain quieted down, and the water surface was no longer rippled.

Feng Ning Yan looked at her peach face on the water, but couldn't believe it …

Even in her past life, when she faced Shen Youhuang, she had only been anxious and her palms had sweated.

In the eyes of others, she and Shen Youhuang had treated each other as honored guests and raised their eyebrows at the same time.

She had never been like this before. She had never been like this, shy, timid, and flustered. Even she could not control the restlessness in her heart.

She didn't dare to believe that the coquettish and gentle girl in the water was herself …

No!

Feng Ningyan, in this life, you can no longer use feelings for anyone.

Because in your previous life, you lost all of your love. In this life, you can't afford to lose!

When she finished changing and walked out of the soup pond, she looked up and saw that the moon was high in the sky.

It was as bright as jade and as round as a plate, illuminating the entire earth.

Looking over, in a pavilion on top of a fake mountain not far away, Shen Ling Jue was standing against the wind.

A few long strands of hair and clothes fluttered gently behind him. His thin white gown made his figure under the moonlight seem somewhat thinner and more sorrowful.

"Your Highness." she whispered after him.

Shen Ling Jue turned his head and saw her elegant appearance, and gave a slight smile before extending his hand to her.

Feng Ningyan originally wanted to refuse, but facing such a perfect moonlight, her heart seemed to soften a bit.

She slowly placed her hand on his open palm and stood beside him at the edge of the fence.

However, he took the opportunity to pull her into his arms. With a twist of his arms, he called out softly, "Ning Yan …"

He wanted to say something, but stopped himself.

Feng Ning Yan's mood was a mess. She gritted her teeth to suppress the slight hesitation in her heart and decisively said: "Your Highness, I told Lan Zhu to prepare an extra bedroom. I only said that it would be inconvenient for her to sleep in, and Fourth Aunt won't blame me. Tonight, Your Highness should rest well. "

Saying that, she hardened her heart and pushed away his arms, then turned around and left.

"What are you afraid of?" Shen Ling Jue looked at her with a profound gaze.

Feng Ningyan's heart skipped a beat and she clenched her fists without revealing her emotions.

"Your Highness, you are overthinking things. After today, we will pass through the border and head towards the southern border. Perhaps only tonight would he be able to sleep peacefully in the Southern Wilderness, not even daring to close his eyes. "I promised the empress dowager and Senior Servant Xu to take good care of you, so I'll naturally do my best."

"Ning Yan," Shen Ling Jue's heart ached, "If you're calm, then why are you afraid of sharing a room with me? If you're sincere, why would you reject people for a thousand miles? We are a legitimate couple... "

Feng Ning Yan was stunned for a moment, and then sneered: "Could it be that Your Highness has really done it?" On the day of the stone banquet, I said that you wanted to ascend to the throne and that I would risk my life to accompany you. In the future, when you become the ruler of the world, I, Feng Ningyan, will stand guard over your borders.

"However, if I were to put on a show and wait for you to claim the title of Emperor, how would I be able to act then? To be a woman who understood her duty, was a mother to the world, and was magnanimous enough to persuade her man into another man's bed? Or to become a target in the eyes of others for profit? Which one is what you want to see? "

In her previous life, this was how she would spend her entire life's worth of ambition and ambition in the battle of the harem, finally ending with her dying late and suffering the tragic fate of being a eater.

How could she ever be able to enter the Imperial Palace's door again in this lifetime?!

These bitter words caused Shen Lingjue to feel extreme heartache.

His vision slowly turned hazy, and the nightmares that had been haunting him for more than a year flashed by one after another.

She was afraid of that ending, which was why she was so cold and resolute.

But how was he going to make her feel better? With just a few words and a few oaths, he wasn't being reckless or irresponsible.

Why would he say anything else? What could he say?

Feng Ning Yan couldn't help but smile mournfully when she didn't hear a single word of Shen Ling Jue's reply.

Silence, what did it mean?

She didn't dare to think too deeply about it. She feared that if she thought too deeply about it, there would be some beautiful things that would be ruthlessly torn apart by her speculation.

She no longer hesitated and hurriedly left the pavilion.

Feng Ning Yan brought Lan Zhu back to the room that was arranged by Qing Xue. Seeing two pillows and a quilt on the bed, even the wine cups on the table were a pair, she felt a little sour in her heart.

"Lan Zhu, go to the prince's room and take a look yourself. If there's anything you don't have, help him prepare it in time."

Since the room given to Shen Ling Jue was temporarily prepared, Feng Ning Yan was afraid that the things inside the room wouldn't suit her.

After all, Lan Zhu had served Shen Ling Jue for a month, so she had a better understanding of his living habits.

"Yes, I will go now." After saying that, he closed the door and left.

Feng Ning Yan slowly took off her outer garment and sat by the side of the table, looking at the pair of wine cups.

The ice-cold, spicy liquor stimulated her throat, but instead, it caused her scalding heart to slowly calm down.

She lifted the jug and drank from the mouth of the jug as quickly as she drank cold water.

The alcohol brought her sleepiness. She stood up and staggered to the bed. She lifted her hand to remove the silver hairpin from her head and threw it on the bed.

The heavens were spinning and the earth was spinning. She raised her head to look at the silver hairpin in her hand and blankly thought of the night before their marriage. Shen Ling Jue had helped her with the hairpin and bit off her hairpin.

"Ah …"

When she thought of those moments in the past when he had stunned her or made her heart pound, she felt a sudden pain in her head, like a stone hammer, a crushing blow from a stick, and then a rush of lava from the depths of her brain that was about to burst her head, and she couldn't help but scream in pain …

Feng Ningyan hugged her head, rolling on the bed in pain as her miserable shrieks filled the entire quiet valley.

Just as Lan Zhu returned to the door, she heard Feng Ningyan's scream. She was so frightened that she slammed the door and rushed in, throwing herself beside the bed to support her. "Miss! Miss, what's wrong with you! "

At this moment, Feng Ning Yan could no longer hear Lan Zhu's words. No matter what sound it made, it was a heavy buzzing in her ears that would only make her head hurt even more.

The guards also surrounded Feng Ningyan's room. Chu Zhao hurriedly walked in and was scared when he saw Feng Ningyan rolling around in her bed in pain.

At this time, a white figure rushed to the bedside like the wind and tightly embraced Feng Ningyan.

"Congealed Smoke!" Shen Ling Jue held onto her tightly, only to see that she still held onto that silver hairpin tightly. Afraid that she would hurt him, he hurriedly snatched it away from her.
