"Meng Yan thinks that I should recognize him? "You're thinking too much …" Shen Han Sheng chuckled calmly. Just as she was about to speak again, the entrance of the mansion was suddenly bustling with noise and excitement. When Duan Mu Yan heard this, she looked over and saw seven to eight women entering the Residence of Han. There was even an old man among them. When Peony and the others entered the main hall, he was directly across from Duan Mu Yan.
Peony was taken aback, but when it saw the look in Shen Hansheng's eyes, it opened its mouth and was about to say something, but was pushed away by Cai Die.
"Mu Yan... Do you remember... "Ugh …" "This is not Xiao Jin …" Before Cai Die could finish, she was pulled back by Peony.
"Cai Die! How can you be so rude? This person must be a noble guest of the Prince. Peony snapped coldly, before turning to look at Duan Mu Yan.
"Miss, please do not take offense. This little sister of mine is usually crazy, so she does not have any rules. If there was something she was lacking just now, please forgive her." Peony bowed and said gently. Even though Peony had explained it this way, Duan Mu Yan could tell the truth from her words. She believed that Cai Die's words were 90% true. However, even if she asked further, she wouldn't be able to get anything out of it.
"Young lady is too polite. Since Duke Han has an important guest, Meng Yan will take her leave …" Duan Mu Yan slightly nodded her head and walked out of the main hall around the peony, as if she didn't mind Cai Die's words.
Looking at Duan Mu Yan's leaving figure, Peony glared fiercely at Cai Die, causing Shen Han Sheng's expression to turn extremely ugly. Cai Die knew that she had just opened her mouth, so she covered her mouth with her hands, looking at the two of them with a begging expression.
"Duke Han, this is Mister Baili, the God of Thousand Hands!" After Yanzhi finished his sentence, Shen Hansheng stopped looking at Chu Xiong and walked towards him with a respectful expression on his face.
"I've long heard of Mister's great name. Now that I've met you, it's my fortune!" Shen Hansheng said respectfully. Baili Chuxiong nodded slightly, then walked into the main hall with Peony and the others.
The moment Duan Muyan left the Residence of Han, in the dark, her simple shirt suddenly trembled, and all the blood in her body seemed to have frozen. Xiao Jin Feng couldn't believe what he saw with his own eyes, the person he had been searching for for for the past few months was right in front of him now. Without the slightest hesitation, Xiao Lingfeng dashed out in the opposite direction, in the direction of Duan Moyan.
"Mu Yan!" His eyes under the mask were as bright as the stars.
Looking at the masked man in front of her, Duan Mu Yan's heartache became increasingly clear. She looked at Xiao Jin Feng silently, but her heart felt as though it was boiling over.
"Miss Meng Yan, this is not a good place to talk. Let's find a place." Yin Shang Rong felt that something was amiss when she saw Duan Ling Tian's girlfriend right in front of her. She turned her gaze towards the Duke of Han's estate and reminded him.
"Master Meng Yan has been here for a long time! "If mister doesn't mind, please follow me, Meng Yan!" Duan Mu Yan endured the surging emotions in her heart as she spoke in a light tone. Xiao Lingfeng's face was filled with astonishment when she heard this. Even though she didn't understand what was going on, she still followed Duan Moyan to a quiet and secluded place.
"Shang Rong, sorry to trouble you!" Duan Mu Yan looked solemnly at Yin Shang Rong. Yin Shang knew what was going on, and immediately walked a few meters away, vigilantly looking around.
"Mu Yan! What's wrong with you? " Xiao Jin Feng felt that something was wrong with the girl before him, but he couldn't pinpoint what was wrong.
"You know me? And you know my name? " Her eyes, which were as beautiful as a butterfly's feathers, glimmered in excitement as she spoke.
"You … Don't you remember who you are? How is that possible? " Xiao Jingfeng's sword-like brows tightly knitted, and his deep eyes shone with a light of disbelief.
"What's impossible? Now that you're standing in front of me, I don't even know who you are. There's only one thing I'm sure of, and that's that I'll definitely recognize you!" Because this mask will hurt me. " Duan Moyan spoke bitterly, placing all her hopes on the man before her.
"Did you lose your memories? "Who did it!?" Xiao Lingfeng gritted his teeth, a cold light flashing through his eyes.
"It's not important. Now I just want to know who I am. Can you tell me everything you know? " Duan Mu Yan spoke as though she was begging, her watery eyes rippling.
"You trust me?" Xiao Lingfeng looked straight at Duan Mu Yan as he solemnly spoke. His heart ached inexplicably. He really didn't know why Duan Mu Yan had to endure so much pain and torture in these past few months. The pain he felt was even more unbearable than the time he fell into the sea of flames.
"If I didn't believe you, I wouldn't have gone looking for you everywhere!" As Duan Mu Yan spoke, she withdrew her painting from her bosom and spoke resolutely. Looking at the painting in Duan Mu Yan's hand, Xiao Jin Feng was silent for a long time before he finally spoke.
"Your name is Duan Mu Yan, you're the Third Princess of the Badlands Court, your royal father is the Badlands Emperor, Duan Chen, your mufei is the pear concubine Ling Zi Yan of the Jadeite Temple, your royal brother is Duan Jingyang, and you also have a childhood sweetheart, Xiao Yuxuan …" Just a few months ago, you turned the tide and saved Big Mo from danger, becoming the first empress of Big Mo's history. In just a few days, you disappeared without a trace. How did you end up here? "You …" Xiao Jin Feng was about to inquire further, but when he recalled the fact that Duan Mu Yan had already lost her memories, he couldn't help but remain silent.
"I am the Third Princess of the Badlands Court …" Even been an empress? Why don't I have any idea? "Why am I here …" She knew that her identity was not simple, but she did not know that it was this bizarre. Duan Mu Yan constantly shook her head, and her eyes were filled with fear as she continuously retreated, her mind a mess of complicated memories. The fragmented memories that could not be arranged according to the rules lingered in her mind, they could not be linked together, they could not be captured.
"Mu Yan! Don't worry, take your time, one day you'll remember! Come with me... I'll bring you back to the Badlands! " Seeing the pained expression on Duan Mu Yan's face, Xiao Jin Feng abruptly pulled on Duan Mu Yan's hand and firmly said:
"NO!" I can't leave! " Duan Muyan shook off Xiao Lingfeng's hand and decisively replied.
"Why? You... "You don't believe me?" Xiao Lingfeng puzzledly looked at Duan Moyan, a trace of injuries appearing in his heart.
"I believe you! But I want to know why I'm here! I want to know who caused my amnesia! I can't just leave like this! At the very least, I can't leave until I recover my memories! " An empress like her actually fell to such a state? She had to know who was the one who harmed her! Anger boiled in her heart as the depths of her eyes turned black.
"Mu Yan, do you know how dangerous it is for you to be here? The Southern Yue and the Great Mo have always been at odds and they must have captured you as a hostage to force the Great Mo to give up the city!" Xiao Jin Feng spoke calmly.
"At least I'm free now! I will not leave until the matter is settled! You... "Who are you?" Duan Mu Yan wanted to call out to Xiao Jin Feng, but at this moment, she realised that she didn't even know who he was.
"I... "I was your previous subordinate, I have no regrets …" If it wasn't for the mask, Duan Moyan would have definitely seen the sadness and helplessness on his face. Since Duan Moyan had already lost her memories, then it would be best for her to forget some things.
"My subordinates? "No regrets …" Duan Mu Yan had no impression of what Xiao Jin Feng had said. Other than that mask, her memory had not improved at all.
"Mu Yan, where are you now?" Xiao Jingfeng asked solemnly as he restrained the emotions in his eyes. Since he already knew of Duan Mu Yan's whereabouts, he had to pass the news to the Great Mo as soon as possible. If there really was an accident, he would have to take care of it.
"Duke Mu Palace!" Duan Mu Yan did not try to conceal anything. Inexplicably, she believed that the man before her surpassed anyone.
"Shen Hanxin's residence? "Is it safe?" Xiao Jin Feng had fought with the Southern Yue for several years, so he naturally understood the Southern Yue Imperial Family very well. Even though he had never seen it, he had at least heard of it.
"They don't seem to know my identity. Otherwise, with my identity, how would I be able to freely enter and leave the Mu King's manor?" Duan Mu Yan smiled bitterly.
"Mu Yan, are you sure that you want to stay in the Mu King's Manor and not leave with me?" It wasn't easy for him to find the location of Duan Mu Yan, and his only wish was to bring her back to the Badlands Court.
"It's not the time yet. You said it earlier, since there is a barrier between the Mo and the Southern Yue, maybe I will be of use here." Although she didn't know what she could do, she had no idea what she could do.
"But you are the Great Mo Princess, and also the Queen, you shouldn't take such a risk." Xiao Jin Feng pursed his lips and tried to persuade her.
"Isn't there already a new emperor in Badlands? I don't regret it, I know you are worried about me, but I still can't leave! Since you were once my subordinate, you have to listen to my orders. Now that you are no longer in a safer situation than I am, I keep thinking that I should recognize you, so during this period of time, you definitely cannot show yourself again! Unless you have no other choice, don't come to the Mu King's Manor to find me either! There are countless experts over there, it would be terrible if they were to find out! " Duan Mu Yan instructed.
"Since you've already made up your mind, there's no need to regret it. I'll stay at the Yun Lai Inn right now. If you need anything, just find me anytime!" The most important thing right now was to notify the Badlands Court and to look after the situation. Furthermore, he could only contact Yan Wuhen, the Great Mo General. At that time, he naturally had a way to contact the Pear Blossom Pavilion.
Mu King's manor, secret room.
Yin Shang Rong reported Duan Mu Yan's whereabouts to Shen Han Xin.
"There really is a masked guy …" What did they say? " Shen Han Xin narrowed her eyes and asked with raised eyebrows.
"Reporting to Your Highness, Miss Meng Yan and that person have deliberately lowered their voices. This subordinate did not hear the contents of their conversation. Also, this subordinate did indeed see the seven Holy Maiden of the Moonlight Palace at the Residence of the King. There was even an old man among them who seemed to have heard someone introduce the old man as the Thousand Hand Divine Thief before this subordinate left! " Yin Shang Rong answered truthfully.
"Oh? That's good news! But luckily, the first one he has to deal with is Xia Hou Bo, thus giving us the chance to make preparations. Currently, the troops from the surrounding counties should be under Shen Han Sheng's control, and the other half is under Xia Hou Bo's control. If they were to fight seriously, we would definitely not be a match for any of them, so … " Shen Han Xin pursed her lips, a sinister light shining in her eyes.
"Prince, you mean …" Yin Shang Rong asked doubtfully.
