C805 805 King of the South Mausoleum

He slowly raised his hand, wanting to touch the wind beside him. As soon as his hand touched the wind, it was as if a powerful force had carried it away.

She staggered forward, but did not try to resist. Instead, she followed the gust of wind, allowing it to carry her wherever she wanted.

The wind was getting stronger and stronger, so much so that she could not even open her eyes. It was as if she was separated by this wind, and could not see what was happening around her. Gradually, her consciousness started to blur, and she could only feel herself being protected by that wind, as if she was lying in the arms of a person.

King Jing Palace —

"Qing Er, Qing Er..."

Painful muttering came out of Yan Yuan's mouth. He slowly opened his eyes and realized that the sky outside was still gray and it was still a little too early for daybreak.

His hand subconsciously wanted to hug the person beside him, but it was empty. His entire body was cold.

Yan Yuan's heart, suddenly hurt, as though he was suffocating. In the depths of his eyes, there was a strong sense of disappointment.

He dreamt of Qing Er. After so long, he finally dreamed of her.

Dreaming that she was bullied, dreaming that she cried and screamed that she missed him …

He wanted to hug her tightly and continue to work hard, but why did he wake up in such a short amount of time?

He didn't want to wake up. If he could see her in his dreams and hold her tight, he would rather not wake up for the rest of his life.

This was not her world, yet she insisted on making him suffer in this world. He could not tell anyone, and no one else could feel the pain.

Because little Heng Er missed the First Prince, he sent him to the longevity palace. At this moment, in the entire room, only he was left.

He got up and walked to the window. Looking at the backyard filled with pear trees, his eyes were filled with pain.

"Cold..." Yan Yuan, I am so cold … "

Liu Ruo Qing mumbled in a daze as she curled up into a ball.

Cold energy slowly seeped from her back into her blood and Liu Ruo Qing was jolted awake from the cold.

He was surrounded by empty fields. The green grass on the ground had dried up and was covered with a layer of white frost.

She was lying on the dry grass, her back wet and cold.

She frowned and propped herself up from the ground. The clothes she wore were somewhat thin, but also looked somewhat familiar.

She remembered. This was the robe she had worn the day she had killed him.

"What is this place?"

She was clearly in the ancient tomb, but upon encountering that wave of cold wind, she finally lost consciousness?

She didn't know where she was nor why she was here, but the clothes she was wearing made her feel inexplicably excited. Her intuition told her that she might be back.

Thinking like this, she no longer felt cold. She quickly found a path and found it difficult to walk on it. Soon, an official road appeared in front of her.

On the public road, there were many people walking around, all of them dressed in ancient attire, causing Liu Ruo Qing's eyes to light up even more.

"He's back, he's really back …"

She was so excited that she wanted to scream, she would be able to see Yan Yuan very soon.

Her mood suddenly brightened. She quickened her steps and stopped a passerby. She pointed at a city gate and asked, "Uncle, what's up ahead?"

"You don't even know this?"

The man looked at Liu Ruo Qing with disdain, and said: "That is Fengjing City."

"Feng City?"

Liu Ruo Qing looked at the city in surprise and muttered: "Why would I come to Nanling?"

She had heard Yan Yuan talk about it before, that the capital of the Nanling was Feng Jing City.

Even so, Liu Ruo Qing's emotions were not affected by this. As long as she comes back, she will still have the chance to return to the Easternum, to Yan Yuan's side.

But she had to think of a way to meet Yan Yuan in secret. Right now, everyone probably thought that she was dead, so if they found out that she was still alive after returning like that, the only thing waiting for her would probably be the decapitation.

Since she had already died once, everyone would know that she was dead. However, she still had to let Yan Yuan know that fool … These days wouldn't be easy.

Liu Ruo Qing's heart suddenly tightened with great pain.

Taking a deep breath, she suppressed the suffocating pain in her heart and continued walking forward.

At this moment, the sound of rapid horse hooves could be heard on the peaceful road. It sounded like the riders were in a hurry.

Liu Ruo Qing subconsciously looked up and saw a man riding a horse.

"Your Royal Highness, can you still hold on?"

"It's fine."

A low, hoarse voice came from inside the carriage. The voice sounded weak and weak, obviously due to severe injuries.

Liu Ruo Qing frowned, she did not want to meddle in other people's business, and turned to leave.

At this moment, several men in black descended from the sky and blocked the path of the horse carriage.

The commoners on the public road were already running away in fright due to this sudden change. Not long later, only the two people in the carriage and the group of men in black in front of them were left on the public road.

It seemed like these two were being chased by these men in black.

Liu Ruo Qing looked at them, because she wanted to rush back to Easternum, she did not want to cause any trouble, even though she knew that the people in the carriage were severely injured, Liu Ruo Qing did not plan to help.

After hesitating for a moment, she decided to leave. However, one of the men in black said to the carriage, "Prince Wei, you shouldn't resist. Just surrender."

"King Duanren?"

Liu Ruo Qing's footsteps suddenly stopped, she turned and looked at the carriage, "Is that Qin Xuan?"

She was not familiar with the current situation of the Nanling, she had only heard Yan Yuan talk about it before.

At that time, Qin Xuan was still a prince and had been chased after by the crown prince at the time.

All in all, he had some sort of relationship with Qin Xuan, and because of this, the enmity between the Nanling and the former crown prince, after the former crown prince was deposed and the new emperor ascended the throne, had been peaceful with each other for more than ten years.

Duke Xian's position in the Nanling was extremely high, so what were these people trying to do to him?

Liu Ruo Qing did not know the reason behind this, but she knew that once Qin Xuan died, the peace between the Easternum and herself would be broken.

"Since you know it's Prince Duan, why aren't you stepping aside?"

The man on the horse pointed his sword at the man in black and instinctively shielded himself in front of the horse carriage.

The leader snickered. "The one we want to kill is King Duanren. If you don't want to die, then hurry up and scram."

As the sound of his voice faded, the black-clad man waved his hands, "There's an order on there. You cannot let King Xian enter the capital alive."

"Yes."
