Chapter 2960 Your Majesty, You Should Remember
On Fire!
The people around who were originally chatting and laughing, discussing how they could go fishing in the river tomorrow to supplement their family income, were suddenly shocked when they heard this. They didn't even bother to ask where the fire was and hurried back.
Fire and water are merciless. They all came out again, but who knows if it is their own house that is burning.
Naturally, they also mixed in with the crowd and walked forward.
As they walked, Zhu Feng lowered his voice and asked, "Where are they?"
Upon hearing this, Li Bushan hurried forward and whispered, "Don't worry, sir. We've all retreated. No one will notice."
Zhu Feng nodded.
After walking for a while, we could clearly see the fire in front of us. It was the small river warehouse where Hengsheng was staying not far from the river. At this moment, the flames were shooting up into the sky, and thick black smoke was rising straight into the sky along with the rolling flames, quickly merging with the dark sky.
Everyone was stunned when they saw this scene.
The Xiaohe warehouse of Hang Seng Bank caught fire!
No one could believe it, but the people from Hang Seng Bank rushed to put out the fire, pouring buckets of water on the flames, making a sizzling sound, but the fire still did not diminish in any way.
Some villagers also came forward to help, and soon all the passages here were packed with people.
Nan Yan was bumped into several times in succession and frowned.
Zhu Feng also saw it and quickly reached out to protect her. The two of them walked to a higher place and Zhu Feng said, "Don't move here. I'll go check it out."
Nan Yan said, "Husband, you have to be careful."
"Don't worry."
As he spoke, he patted Nan Yan's hand and turned to walk forward.
Their identities were not exposed, and the Jinyiwei had already found out the basic situation of the town in the past few days. Apart from the Hang Seng Bank, there was no other danger in Xiajiang Town. Therefore, even if Zhu Feng went there, nothing would happen. However, this fire was too important to them. Nan Yan stood on the embankment, looking at the flames rising into the sky in front of him, and couldn't help clenching his fists.
At this moment, Li Bushan's low and somewhat hoarse voice came from behind -
"Do you still remember this place?"
“……?!”
Nan Yan frowned and turned around, only to see Li Bushang standing behind her. Since Zhu Feng had left and there was no one else around Nan Yan, he naturally had to stay to protect the imperial concubine.
However, when she saw him beside her, Nan Yan's expression became heavier than when she was alone.
Especially, what he just said.
Nan Yan asked, "What did you say?"
Li Bushang looked at her. Perhaps it was because the river warehouse in front of him was on fire, the flames rising into the sky were also reflected in his eyes, making the wolf eyes that usually looked cold and even without any warmth seem to be burning with a cluster of flames at this moment.
He released all his scorching heat towards Nan Yan.
Nan Yan frowned: "What did you say?"
Li Bu Shang looked down at her, then looked up at his surroundings, then looked back at her again and said, "Do you still remember this place?"
“…”
These words made Nan Yan even more confused.
What he meant by this sentence was that they had been here before, but Nan Yan really couldn't remember when she had been to Xiajiang Town in the past, and with him.
She said, "What do you mean by asking this?"
Li Bushang's eyes flickered again.
It looked like a wounded wolf, a bit bloodthirsty and brutal, but also a bit pitiful as if it had been forced into a desperate situation.
After a while, he let out a long breath, as if acknowledging reality, and said, "I know, you must have forgotten."
“…”
"You must not remember what happened at that time."
“…”
"I don't want to remember."
Nan Yan's brows knitted even tighter: "What exactly do you want to say?"
Li Bushang looked up at her and said slowly, "We've been here before. Of course, it wasn't Xiajiang Town, but it was not far from here."
"us?"
Nan Yan was even more confused: "Me, with you?"
"yes."
“…”
Nan Yan frowned and thought for a while, and suddenly remembered that year - that time when she followed Zhu Feng to Jinling City, opened the Da Ci'en Temple, and paid tribute to Emperor Gao and Empress Xiaoci. However, she lost her unborn child because of the riot in the Da Ci'en Temple. In anger, Zhu Feng asked her to accompany the emperor in the carriage. When she was suffering, Li Bushang kidnapped her under the cover of night.
Nan Yan suddenly opened her eyes wide and looked at him in disbelief: "You mean——"
Li Bushang said, "It's nearby."
“…”
"That night, I arranged a boat to take you away. That boat... was docked nearby."
Nan Yan's hands and feet suddenly became cold.
It turned out that Li Bushan had kidnapped her that night, and it was actually nearby - she was tortured terribly at the time, and after being kidnapped, she was extremely panicked and did not pay attention to where they set up camp and where she was kidnapped by Li Bushan.
But if you think about it carefully, after being kidnapped by Li Bushan, they met that mysterious man again.
It seems that the place is not far from Xingluo Lake.
So, it’s here?
That night might not have meant much, after all, it had already passed, but for the relationship between her and Li Bushang, that night was definitely the most important night.
It was on that night that Li Bushan tore off the mask of being her brother and revealed his true self to her. From then on, Nan Yan developed a fear of the man she thought was her brother, a fear that she had to admit even if she didn't want to.
That was the first time she knew that Li Bushan had such feelings for her.
Moreover, that feeling was so intense that he would rather bear the sin and destroy everything in the world just to get her.
Thinking of this, the worry that had been put at ease because he got married and had the most important woman in his life was unconsciously lifted up again. Even though it was dark at night, it was obvious that Nan Yan's face turned pale immediately.
She turned her face away.
He said calmly, "It's been so long since that happened, I've already forgotten it, why bring it up again?"
“…”
Li Bushang looked at her for a while.
Then he lowered his head and said softly, "You, don't worry, I won't do that to you again."
“…”
"I, I can't do it anymore."
After hearing this, Nan Yan looked at him again, thought for a moment, and said, "You're already married and have a family. You should know who is most important to you. These things are all in the past. I have forgotten them. Please don't mention them again."
After saying that, he turned around and walked forward.
But just when she took two steps, Li Bushan's low voice sounded behind her again -
"I just want to remind you that I remember this place. Your Majesty should remember it too."
