Chapter 129 Marriage

Nymph had never envisioned this outcome.

How come the person she saved was Zong Si?

But everything makes sense.

She saved him and treated his injuries. He said in a slightly cold tone, "I will repay you."

Later, Meng Ze forced her to get married, so her mother went to the clan to discuss the marriage, and it was successfully negotiated. Meng Ze never had any ideas about her again.

If it were someone else at that time, Meng Ze might not give up. He could always find a way to get the woman he wanted, and the prosperous Prince Xuan's Palace could make him stop.

Ning Fu always wondered, since Zong Si didn't like her and the Ningguo Mansion had no benefit for him, why did he agree to marry her.

It turns out it was because of this kindness.

The Xuanwang Mansion naturally had no position to stop Meng Ze from thinking about her. Even if they could stop him temporarily, they could not stop Meng Ze forever. But since she became the Crown Prince's Consort, the Xuanwang Mansion could reasonably protect her, and that was what she wanted. She liked Zong Si and wanted to marry him.

After getting married, Ning Fu almost never attended any family dinners where Meng Ze was present, and she seldom saw Meng Ze. I guess Zong Si did this on purpose.

Nymph was a little dazed.

Then what does the love or not that she has always cared about count for? At this moment, it seems like she is complaining without any reason.

Ning Fu originally thought that Meng Ze had restrained himself because of his engagement with Zong Si, but she never imagined that this marriage was actually arranged to help her avoid Meng Ze, not because Prince Xuan's Mansion took a fancy to her and needed her as a daughter-in-law.

She suddenly felt uncomfortable and confused.

Zong Si's gratitude seemed to be sacrificing his own feelings to fulfill her. But she had to admit that if the marriage with him had not come in time, she would have really become Meng Ze's concubine.

Judging from the fact that Meng Ze's several concubines died early, if he could not gain any benefit from her, it was only a matter of time before Meng Ze executed her.

"Fourth Miss, I only have one question. If I die in the future, can you guard Prince Xuan's Mansion for me?"

Before they got engaged, he asked her this, with his back to the light, appearing somewhat cold and indifferent.

She nodded.

He just smiled. Although the two of them had no contact again, he almost personally handled the subsequent marriage procedures.

Nymph lifted the curtain and glanced at the road behind her. Two obvious wheel tracks were visible.

…

City God Temple.

Zong Si lay on the ground, no longer having any strength left. Blood flowed gradually to the feet of the standing man.

"I never thought that the prince would die in my hands." The man smiled.

Zong Si looked at the man, closed his eyes and said nothing.

Even when facing life and death, he maintains such a calm and composed attitude.

Even after seeing the man's face clearly, she didn't show any surprise.

"I'm sorry." The man raised his sword.

Zong Si closed his eyes.

What he recalled was the scene when Nymph fell into the water, half-conscious and half-awake, hugged him tightly, and called him "My dear" in a dependent manner.

She didn't care at that time, but now she feels a little regretful. That was clearly the moment when she had just been reborn and was most dependent on him.

I think at that time, she still regarded her as her husband.

In fact, if he hadn't been on guard against Prince Xuan's Mansion, he would have felt a little strange. After all, Fourth Miss Ning was a great beauty, and her voice was also very delicate.

Zong Si was not a monk, so naturally he felt a little sad at that time.

Although he couldn't get close to her and had to be wary of her, he had to admit that he liked her type.

How could he not be moved in his previous life?

How could he not care when she coaxed him like this every day and called him "my dear"?

Zong Si couldn't help feeling a little confused. In this life, even if she casually said a few sweet words to him, he would still feel happy when he didn't like her. What's more, when they were in bed together, how could he resist?

The sword pierced his body.

He was covered in wounds and his body was numb, so the pain was not that obvious, but his heart still felt severe pain.

After he dies, Ningfu might marry Lu Xingzhi.

In a few years, he will slowly be forgotten.

He admitted that he was very jealous and he was unwilling to accept it.

The deeper the sword went, the more rapid his breathing became.

Suddenly the sword did not go any deeper.

Zong Si naturally did not accept his fate, but if he confronted him head-on, he would definitely lose. He could only relax his vigilance and did not choose to fight back when his first sword failed to hit his vital point.

He grasped the sword at his side, still retaining a bit of strength, and now was the opportunity.

He was about to take action.

Zong Si felt water dripping on his face. He opened his eyes with difficulty, only to find blood. He saw that the man's chest was pierced by a knife.

The knife was pulled out fiercely again.

The man seemed to have just reacted. He turned around in pain, covering his chest with blood.

Zong Si saw a petite man, his face was pale, his lips were bloodless, and his hands were shaking. He was obviously frightened by his own actions, but he held the knife tightly in his hand.

This is clearly a nymph.

Zong Si narrowed his eyes. Although he was somewhat touched that she risked her life for him, he still didn't want to see her come back.

Zong Si, who had been relatively calm, was now getting a little anxious.

Ning Fu stared at the man in front of her, but was stunned. This man turned out to be Sun Zheng!

Before Zong Si left Beijing that day, she felt that the man looked unfamiliar and she also felt vaguely that she didn't know where she had seen him before!

Emperor Jingwen arranged him to be by Zong Si's side, and it turned out that he had planned this long ago.

Sun Zhengju still had some strength left and stabbed at her with the sword!

Ning Fu was still somewhat grateful at this moment. At that time, Zong Si forced her to learn some swordsmanship. Otherwise, she might not dare to kill today, and she might not be able to deal with Sun Zheng's moves at this moment.

However, Sun Zheng's swordsmanship was top-notch. Even if he was injured and his movements were restricted, it was not something Nymph could escape.

"Retreat!" Zong Si suddenly said.

Sun Zheng only felt a gust of wind coming, and was startled. He quickly withdrew the sword that was stabbing at Ningfu and turned around to deal with it.

The first thing we have to do now is to deal with Zong Si.

Sun Zheng's moves were almost fatal, and he was anxious, wanting to kill Zong Si as soon as possible.

"Go quickly." Zong Si was already unable to cope with it, and said to Ning Fu with a sidelong glance.

There was worry and some reluctance in his eyes.

Ning Fu was too familiar with him and could tell at a glance that he could not use his full strength at the moment. Zong Si was very strong, even as strong as the big man from Northern Qi. It was obvious that his lungs were seriously injured at the moment.

She glanced at Sun Zheng. His pace slowed down a bit. She couldn't help but think that the sword had just stabbed him in the heart, so he was also seriously injured.

Ning Fu clenched the dagger in her hand. Sun Zheng could not survive now.

He saw his own face, and he would certainly discover his identity in the future. If he were alive, even if Zong Si died, after he went back to tell Emperor Jingwen that he attempted to save Zong Si, given Emperor Jingwen's paranoia, he would certainly become suspicious of his father.

When Sun Zheng raised his sword, Ning Fu walked towards him resolutely.

Sun Zheng was shocked and turned around to defend himself for a few moves. Zong Si used up his last bit of strength and stabbed his body with a sword.

Then Zong Si and Sun Zheng both fell to the ground.

Finally, Zong Si saw Ning Fu, his face pale but calm. He pulled the sword out of Sun Zheng's body, found the fatal position, stabbed it hard, pulled it out, and stabbed it again.

It was he who taught her how to protect herself, and where the sword should be inserted to best kill someone. However, he never expected that the first time she used it, she would save herself.

Blood splattered on her face.

The pale face and bright red blood clearly showed a cruel and ruthless act, but Zong Si felt that she was glowing.

At first Sun Zheng tried to fight back, but then he stopped responding and became completely dead.

Nymph gasped, collapsed to the ground, trembling all over, and burst into tears.

She killed someone.

But she soon became worried about Zong Si again, and hurriedly crawled to his side. She was obviously afraid too, and her eyes were wet, but she comforted him, "Don't worry, my lord, it's all right."
