If she wanted to leave, Dugu Jie would never let her go.
Dugu Jie grabbed her waist and pulled her into his arms. He held Nangong Xian captive, turned her face and kissed her lips. Tasting those lips he had longed for, Dugu Jie felt like he was going to explode.
That’s the feeling!
This was the first time Nangong Xian had encountered such a situation, and in front of the man she loved, she was a little confused. According to Nangong Xian's methods, she could easily push Dugu Jie away with a single palm, but...
Nangong Xian bit her lip and cursed herself in her heart as a bitch!
Dugu Jie noticed Nangong Xian's obedience, and a smile flashed in his eyes. He was even more moved when he kissed her. He stripped Nangong Xian of her outer clothes, leaving only a bellyband. Only then did he discover the wound on Nangong Xian's back.
Dugu Jie's passion was instantly extinguished by the sight of Nangong Xian's knife wound. He stroked the wound on Nangong Xian's back and asked her with a heartache, "Why didn't you tell me you were injured?"
Nangong Xian shook her head, "It doesn't hurt much anymore, there's no need to talk about it."
The scar had already begun to heal, and it looked particularly scary. Nangong Xian pretended to put on her clothes and said, "The scar is ugly and it stains your Highness's eyes."
"Don't wear it." Dugu Jie stopped Nangong Xian's action. He lowered his head and kissed Nangong Xian's scar, his movements as gentle as water.
That night, he didn't really want her after all.
He couldn't bear to cause her more pain.
After that night, Nangong Xian never dared to meet Dugu Jie alone again. The next month, General Nangong Jue returned to the capital, one of his legs lame, and he needed a cane to walk.
It was a great blow to a man who had once been so powerful on the battlefield to suddenly become disabled. However, under the guidance of Nangong Xian and Madam Nangong, General Nangong gradually regained his confidence.
Unable to fight in the battlefield, General Nangong went to the military camp to provide tactical guidance, specializing in behind-the-scenes work. General Nangong and the emperor both saw Nangong Xian's potential and ability, and intended to train her to become the second Nangong Jue, so they sent her to guard the northwest border.
Nangong Xian was gone for two years.
During this period, several major events occurred in the capital. First, the fifth prince was arrested for treason and over a hundred people were beheaded. Second, the emperor was critically ill and was feared to be dying.
When Nangong Xian learned that the Emperor was dying, she hurriedly gave orders and prepared to return to the capital. On the way back to the capital, she was alone with a small group of people and Mo Liansheng.
At night, a group of people camped in the wild.
The weather was very cold, so they lit a bonfire and sat by it with Nangong Xian and her subordinates. She had her period these days, and her temper was a bit bad, so her subordinates didn't dare to provoke her.
Mo Liansheng brought over a bowl of painkillers and said to Nangong Xian, "General, your stomach will feel better after drinking the painkillers."
Mo Liansheng knew Nangong Xian's physical condition very well.
Nangong Xian stared at the bowl of medicine and frowned.
Mo Liansheng hurriedly took out some honey from his pocket and said, "Here's some candy."
Nangong Xian then took the large bowl and drank the medicine in one gulp. She dropped a piece of honey into her mouth and suddenly turned her head to ask Mo Liansheng, "How old is Doctor Mo this year?"
Mo Liansheng said: "24 years old."
Nangong Xian laughed, "You're already 24, why haven't you married yet?"
Mo Liansheng's face turned red. He lowered his head and said embarrassedly, "I have never met the person I like." After that, he quietly raised his head and stared at Nangong Xian's face in a daze.
When Nangong Xian heard the words 'I have never met the person I like', she thought of Dugu Jie and became a little dazed.
If His Majesty the Emperor passes away, that person should be crowned emperor.
Nangong Xian came back to her senses and said to Mo Liansheng with a smile, "When we return to Beijing this time, I'll introduce you to someone."
Mo Liansheng smiled bitterly and declined politely, "Thank you for your kindness, General, but I only want to follow you in the military and protect you for the rest of your life. As for love, I'll just let it be."
Nangong Xian was quite touched. She patted Mo Liansheng on the shoulder and said with a smile, "He's a good boy!"
Nangong Xian felt a little sleepy, so she got up and went back to the house to rest. Her loyal subordinate Ling Xiao came into the house with a bucket of hot water in his hands. He put the bucket in the tent and said, "General, there is no bathtub. Look..."
"It's okay, just leave it there."
Nangong Xian sat on the edge of the bed, eating peanuts with her head down.
Ling Xiao looked at her, hesitant, and waited for a moment before Nangong Xian realized something was wrong and asked, "What are you still doing here for? Are you afraid of the dark? Do you want me to accompany you?"
Ling Xiao was at a loss for words, "No, General, there is something..."
Nangong Xian: “Hmm?”
Lingxiao walked closer and stopped about three or four meters away from Nangong Xian. He whispered, "General, Doctor Mo seems to have other thoughts about you."
Nangong Xian threw the peanuts in her hand into the plate and said, "I can see it." If she hadn't seen it, she wouldn't have asked why Mo Liansheng didn't get married.
Nangong Xian is beautiful. Although her skin has deteriorated a little due to the wind and sun at the border, she is still beautiful.
There are so many people in this military camp who secretly like her.
Seeing that Nangong Xian knew the truth, Lingxi finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Hey, I thought the general didn't know. Actually, Doctor Mo is a very good person and has excellent medical skills. The general is stationed at the border all year round, so it's not bad to find a man like him to live with."
"However, Doctor Mo's status is still a little low, and he is not worthy of being a general."
Nangong Xian didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so she teased Lingxi, "If he doesn't deserve it, do you?"
Lingxiao's old face turned red and he quickly said, "I don't have that kind of idea about the general!" Lingxiao didn't dare to have any idea about the general.
Nangong Xian sneered, "Be careful or I'll tell your master that you're always staring at me. Just wait and see how your good master will deal with you!"
