Chapter 1763 Why do you care about her so much?
"If you dare to cause trouble or ruin my plans, I won't let you go!"
“…”
Xue Ling and Li Lai were not very familiar with each other, but they were both "rescued" from the bandit's lair by Ye Zheng, and lived together in the Duwei Mansion of Shazhouwei. They saw each other every day for several months.
She didn't know this person, didn't know where he came from, and didn't know his identity.
The only thing I know is that this man, whose real name is "Jiang Qu", has the same purpose as me and wants to fulfill a wish, so he is willing to put himself in danger and even risk his life to do this.
If the blind girl Chu Xin had not been rescued by Gu Yiyou and Tong Sinian, and if she had not told the stories of the past, she would not even have known that this man named Jiang Qu, this man who looked cautious, steady, even honest and simple-minded, actually had such a vicious heart and would do such a cruel thing to the person next to him.
That time, she really couldn't hold back and argued with him.
Jiang Qu, who has changed his name to Li Lai, did not give any further explanation.
He just said coldly: "You do what you should do, I do what I should do, and after that, we each get what we want."
“…”
"That's good."
“…”
"No one is qualified to judge me, including you."
At that time, Xue Ling was so angry that he asked him, "If I don't have the qualifications, then Chu Xin doesn't have the qualifications either?"
She clearly remembered that when Li Lai heard Chu Xin's name, he sneered.
No more words were said.
It seems like I have nothing to say to myself.
And she didn't dare to really break up with him. After all, she also had her own purpose. Moreover, in the Commandant's Mansion, they had to be cautious at every step and there were dangers everywhere. If the emperor and the imperial concubine really discovered their true identities and true purposes, none of them would survive.
But this time, seeing Jiang Qu's almost ferocious and fierce look, her heart moved slightly.
She couldn't help but ask, "You, what is your purpose?"
“…”
"What could make someone like you, who doesn't even recognize your own family, so eager to do this?"
“…”
"Is it fame, fortune, or glory and wealth?"
Jiang Qu just sneered, but showed an expression that he had nothing to say to her, turned around and walked out of her room.
Xue Ling stood in the room, looking at his back, and couldn't help falling into deep thought.
After Li Lai left her room, he took a few quick steps but then stopped.
What he was thinking about was the news he had just heard from Chu Xin.
Concubine, you need to take care of your pregnancy.
Going to Bailong City alone to take care of the baby...
Under the moonlight, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

When Zhu Feng walked to the door, he saw that there was still a little light inside, but it was very dim. He pushed the door open carefully, fearing that the sound of opening the door would disturb the person who might be sleeping inside.
Although, he originally wanted to stay in the study overnight to avoid waking her up.
But, tonight, he still wanted to be with her.
So I came back.
But when he opened the door, he saw the person he thought was already asleep sitting on the bed. When he heard him push the door open, he immediately stood up and said, "Your Majesty."
"Why aren't you asleep yet?"
Zhu Feng's brows knitted together immediately. He closed the door and walked in. Seeing Nan Yan wearing only a thin dress, he immediately became displeased: "Do you have to make yourself catch a cold to be happy?"
"No."
Nan Yan hurriedly said, "Because I caught a cold, Xiao Shunzi specially asked them to bring two more braziers. The room is too hot tonight, and I am not cold at all."
Although she said so, Zhu Feng was still a little unhappy.
Then he asked, "Why are you still awake so late?"
“…”
"We're going to be on the road tomorrow. Staying up late like this is bad for your health, you know?"
Nan Yan looked at him with a wry smile, thinking that he was clearly a hero who commanded the respect of hundreds on the battlefield, and clearly an emperor who controlled the country, but now, he was as nagging as an old woman.
So she laughed and said, "Your Majesty, are you concerned about me or my belly?"
“…”
Zhu Feng's expression slightly condensed.
He didn't say anything, just asked someone to bring in hot water, washed up quickly, and then went to bed.
He had a strong body, and even in the cold winter, his body temperature was higher than that of an ordinary person. Getting into bed at this time was like getting into a heater. Nan Yan felt as if his whole body was enveloped by the scorching heat.
It was hot today and my palms were full of sweat.
So, she stepped back a little.
Zhu Feng glanced at her, said nothing, and just lay down and pulled the quilt up.
Nan Yan noticed that he looked a little unhappy, and she didn't want the two of them to be so bored together tonight, so she asked for something to talk about: "Your Majesty, why did you come so late today?"
"I'm dealing with some things."
"What's going on?"
Zhu Feng rubbed his nose and said, "Don't ask about this."
“…”
"I have already made the arrangements. You just need to take care of your own stomach."
Hearing this, Nan Yan had no choice but to say "Oh" softly.
Zhu Feng turned his head and glanced at her, saying, "I heard that you went to the west wing again today?"
"yes."
"Why did it pass again?"
“…”
"Didn't I tell you too? Before this matter is resolved, no matter who it is in the West Wing, you'd better not meet with them again."
Nan Yan said softly, "I'm going there just to see Chu Xin and explain things to her."
“…”
"I'm leaving tomorrow. She's blind and has no relatives here. I'm worried about her."
Zhu Feng frowned slightly: "Why do you care about her so much?"
"concubine……"
"You know, she's not very popular in this mansion."
“…”
"She never has anything nice to say. Even those who bring her food will be mocked by her with cold words. Everyone here is here to serve me. When did it become her turn to mock them?"
After hearing this, Nan Yan hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, please don't be angry with her. She, she just has a grudge in her heart."
“…”
"Thinking about what she's been through, I really feel sorry for her."
Zhu Feng said, "You mean, her new husband gouged out her eyes."
"Um……"
When talking about this matter, Nan Yan's heart still trembled a little.
It's like I feel the same way.
Zhu Feng, who was so close to her, could feel her trembling slightly even though they were not hugging each other.
Nan Yan said, "Even though a woman shouldn't rely solely on a man's protection to survive, how could that man hurt his wife like this?"
“…”
Zhu Feng's hand holding her moved slightly.
The expression on his face froze for a moment.
