How could such perfunctory words fool Qin Yi? He stared at Nan Qianyue's evasive eyes and ultimately did not ask any more questions. Instead, he pulled her up with some doubt in his eyes.
"The ground is cold, go back and rest if you're tired."
Nanqianyue withdrew her hand, saying, "I want to stay a little longer."
"No." Qin Yi replied quickly; his intuition told him that this was not a good place.
Nanqianyue couldn't resist Qin Yi's insistence and was forcibly dragged out by him.
As soon as they stepped out of the dilapidated temple, they saw Qingyi rushing over, "Your Highness, the Southern Prime Minister has arrived."
Nan Xiang? That fake father? What's he doing here?
Nan Qianyue was puzzled, and Qin Yi noticed, so he explained to her, "Your news has reached the capital, and the Prime Minister of the South has specially requested an imperial decree from His Majesty to come and bring you back to the capital."
Nanqianyue was a little lost, "...Back to the capital?"
Will she be able to find clues to get back?
Qin Yi nodded, "Yes."
"Your Highness, I was unable to stop the Southern Chancellor, and General Huang brought him to Fengdu."
Qingyi lowered his head. In order to deliver the message before the Southern Prime Minister, he used his lightness skill to rush along the way, which caused the wound on his shoulder to reopen.
Nanqianyue noticed that the color of the clothes on Qingyi's shoulder had darkened, and couldn't help but frown and ask, "Is your shoulder bleeding?"
The woman in green crossed her arms and said, "These are just minor injuries, nothing to worry about."
Is this considered a minor injury?
Nanqianyue suddenly thought of the man who was beaten to death with a hundred lashes in the training ground and couldn't help but feel some sympathy for Qingyi.
She suddenly looked at Qin Yi, "You're going to punish the girl in blue with twenty strokes of the military rod?"
Qin Yi lowered his eyes, his tone leaving no room for negotiation, "Yes, he should be punished."
Nanqianyue raised her eyebrows and said, "Twenty lashes will take ten days to half a month to recover. It's better to give him more work than that."
"Besides, he didn't hurt me on purpose, so why make a big fuss?"
The man in blue, head bowed, was moved to tears. It seemed that taking the job of delivering the message from the woman in red was a very wise choice.
Qin Yi gently held Nan Qianyue's injured hand, a smile playing on his lips. "You haven't changed. You're always pleading for them."
Overall? Them?
So, it's possible that she was also injured by Qin Yi's people when she time-traveled before?
"Move the moon! Move the moon!"
Just then, a strong male voice suddenly rang out. Nan Qianyue turned her head and saw a middle-aged man in a brown brocade robe walking briskly towards her, led by General Huang.
When he saw Nan Qianyue next to Qin Yi, he was so excited that he could hardly walk straight. He raised his hand and waved at Nan Qianyue, so excited that he was about to cry.
As for the southward migration month, she was already crying, her tears falling like rain, one drop after another, unable to stop.
That familiar face brought out all the grievances she had been suppressing. She walked numbly towards the middle-aged man, stretching out her hands and calling out pitifully, "Dad..."
She threw herself into the man's arms, hugging him and sobbing as she poured out her grievances, "You old rascal...do you know how pitiful your precious little one has been lately, boohoo...why did you only come to pick me up now...you're such a bad old man, boohoo..."
Nan Xiang's eyes welled up with tears, but he held them back. He gently stroked Nan Qianyue's back and said, "My dear daughter, it's my fault for not protecting you properly and for making you suffer."
Looking at the familiar scene, Qingyi couldn't help but sigh, "In the end, it's still the bond between father and daughter. Even if Miss Nan loses her memory, she will never forget what her father looks like."
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a cold light on his body, and he couldn't help but shiver and silently moved away from Qin Yi.
Qin Yi said coldly, "It seems that the twenty strokes of the military rod will not be exempted."
"Your Highness..." the man in green pleaded.
"Congratulations to Prime Minister Nan on finding his beloved daughter." General Huang clasped his hands in congratulations, successfully interrupting the father and daughter's reminiscing.
Nanqianyue finally realized something was wrong. She raised her head blankly and looked closely at the handsome face of the middle-aged man in front of her. He really looked exactly like her father, except that he hadn't shaved and was dressed as an ancient person.
This...this is Nan Xiang, an ancient person who looks just like her father, not her father.
The hateful reality made the southward migration month begin to weep again, weeping silently.
"My dear daughter, your heart will break if you keep crying." Nan Xiang hurriedly wiped away Nan Qianyue's tears.
Qin Yi composed himself and walked over. "Prime Minister Nan, she has lost some of her memories and will need proper care after she returns."
Upon seeing Qin Yi, the Southern Chancellor's face immediately turned cold. "Amnesia? What exactly did Prince Anzheng do to my daughter! That she has lost her memory?"
“Prime Minister, you can’t just say things like that. Our Prince has always treated Miss Nan with respect. If it weren’t for the Crown Prince of Nan Jing secretly kidnapping Miss Nan, how could she have lost her memory unexpectedly?” Qingyi thought she was right.
Whether it was two years ago or two years later, Miss Nan was taken away by the Crown Prince of Nan Jing. Although it wasn't kidnapping, and Miss Nan went willingly, her disappearance was indeed inextricably linked to the Crown Prince of Nan Jing.
"Hmph, I will not listen to your side of the story. Once I find out the truth, I will definitely seek justice from His Majesty."
The Prime Minister's face showed anger, but he dared not vent it recklessly. After all, this was the territory of Prince Anzheng, and he could not afford to offend him here.
Nan Qianyue was a little confused by what she heard and was pulled away by Nan Xiang before she could ask any questions.
"My dear daughter, Daddy will take you home."
General Huang followed closely behind, watching everyone's expressions like a supervisor.
That's right, he is the supervisor, the old emperor's discerning eye.
Qin Yi stood still, his eyes fixed on Nan Qianyue's retreating figure.
"Your Highness, it seems like Miss Nan doesn't know anything at all?" Qingyi asked, somewhat puzzled.
Qin Yi remained silent, turned around, and left in the opposite direction.
