Chapter 1829 People who love each other should be fulfilled
"They will just think that I made up a story to gain the Empress's sympathy."
“…”
Nan Yan remained silent and did not speak.
But my heart is clear.
Indeed, when Tang Zhaoyun told her the secret of the crossbow, and when she found out that it was Xue Ling who did all this, she really hated her to the core.
The only sensible thing to do was not to tell Ran Xiaoyu everything, so as not to alert the enemy.
But thinking back on it, if Xue Ling had really told him about her and Ji Santing, he probably wouldn't have believed it so easily. He would have thought she was trying to gain his sympathy and would have questioned what she was going to say next.
Xue Ling said, "But, I gave you a clue and asked you to go to Bailong City to find the antidote. If you can find the antidote, you will have some trust in me."
“…”
"Seeing the Xue family and the East and West Halls again, they have gained another third of their trust in me."
“…”
"With these six points, Your Majesty will be able to listen to me calmly without six points of doubt."
“…”
Nan Yan couldn't help but look at her again.
Although I have long known that this little girl is very scheming, but at this moment, she shocked me again.
She can read people's hearts so accurately.
All they could say was that the power struggle within the Xue family must be more sinister than they had previously imagined.
That's why such a young lady would have such thoughts.
In comparison, although his childhood in the Si family was difficult, Gu Tingchun was simple-minded and only knew how to abuse him without any clever methods. Si Muyun and Si Mulan were just naughty kids who bullied him and had no methods at all.
Come to think of it, I don’t seem to be that miserable.
She pulled herself back to her senses and looked at Xue Ling again.
Then he said, "You are right, but you were wrong for only one day."
"Which point?"
"I don't trust you six points, I only trust you five points."
"Oh? Only half?"
"good."
"Then, what should I do to make Her Majesty trust me a little more?"
Nan Yan looked at her for a while, then asked, "What's going on between you and Ji Santing?"
“…”
"Did he really fall into the hands of the Sand Bandits?"
“…”
When this was mentioned, Xue Ling's face darkened.
She gritted her teeth and was silent for a long time before she slowly said, "Yes."
Nan Yan asked, "Is it really someone from your family who murdered him?"
Xue Ling was a little surprised that she even knew this.
Nan Yan said, "Your Majesty, listen to Xue Yun. Young Master Xue Yun told you about you and Ji Santing. Although Young Master Xue doesn't know much, Your Majesty has already guessed it. I just came to confirm it with you."
Xue Ling took a deep breath, nodded, and said, "Your Majesty the Emperor is truly wise and powerful."
“…”
"He guessed right. Santing him was murdered by someone, by the family of this woman."
“…”
"In order to prevent me from being with San Ting, they actually stole from the city and opened the gates of Bailong City, letting those sand bandits in to plunder and kill. They also led them to the Xue family, knocked San Ting unconscious, and left him to those ruthless sand bandits."
Although Nan Yan had heard Zhu Feng's speculation a long time ago, she was still shocked when she heard the facts stated by Xue Ling.
She asked, "How did Ji Santing survive?"
Xue Ling said, "He is lucky."
“…”
"Those bandits didn't kill him. Instead, they took him back to Thermidor. After he woke up, he realized he'd been set up and was already trapped in Thermidor. So, he, he, he just became a bandit."
Nan Yan nodded.
really.
So he asked, "So, there was a time when you were captured by the sand bandits and came back safe and sound. Was it him who saved you?"
"yes."
When Xue Ling said this, his eyes turned red.
Dao: "I didn't expect that he was still alive, but at that time, he was already a sand bandit."
“…”
"He's not just an ordinary bandit. Because of his intelligence and ability, he has become the third in command of the Hot Moon Bandits."
"oh!"
"There are lives lost and blood on his hands."
“…”
"He told me that maybe God didn't want us to be together. Maybe he and I were from two different worlds from the very beginning."
“…”
"So, he accepted his fate."
“…”
"He told me to leave, told me not to look for him again, and told me—"
“…”
"Forget him."
The more she spoke, the redder her eyes became. Nan Yan even saw that she slowly clenched her fists.
After saying that, she gritted her teeth and said word by word: "But I am not willing to do that!"
Nan Yan said: "You——"
Xue Ling said, "I like him, and he likes me too. People who love each other should be together. How can we let others interfere and break us up?"
“…”
"I won't give in, and I won't admit it!"
“…”
"He was a bandit, so I pulled him out of the quagmire of banditry. If the bandits wouldn't let him go, I would find a way to make them release him."
“…”
"I must rescue him, I must be with him, no one can stop me!"
Nan Yan looked at her in shock.
For a moment, I didn't know what to say.
Xue Ling looked up at her again, his eyes still red and his voice trembling, but his tone was calm. "So, Your Majesty, please believe me. I did all this to save him."
"He's been imprisoned by Wulun and the Hussein people. If he doesn't cooperate with them and poison Lord Ye, he will be killed by them. I have no choice but to do this."
“…”
"But, after this is done, they can let him go."
“…”
"And I—"
Nan Yan looked at her: "How are you?"
Xue Ling suddenly knelt down in front of her, his back straight, and said, "He was a bandit in the desert. He killed people and robbed merchants."
“…”
"If I were to count all of this in the future, I'm afraid I'd have to pay it back one by one."
“…”
"The Emperor wants to use military force against Thermidor. If he gets caught up in it, he'll be in danger."
“…”
"So, I, a humble girl, have the audacity to make a deal with Your Majesty."
Nan Yan asked, "Transaction?"
"right,"
"We are willing to serve the Emperor and the Empress. We only ask that in the future, when His Majesty sends troops to the Hot Moon Bay to eliminate the bandits in the sand, you spare his life. Even if I have to work like a slave to repay him, as long as he is free, as long as I can be with him, we will both work like slaves to forgive his sins."
“…”
Nan Yan frowned slightly and looked at her seriously.
This little girl, at such a young age, with such scheming and scheming, and such a heart, can even do this for her lover.
Indeed, it is not easy.
It’s not easy.
But Nan Yan's face showed no extra expression. She was silent for a moment, then said coldly, "You said deal."
“…”
"Then, what can you do for the Emperor and me?"
