Chapter 3040: Welcome the Young Master Back to That Place
The girl named Dragonfly suddenly opened her eyes wide.
But then she lowered her head and said, "Yes."
Nan Yan turned to Ting Fu and said, "Take her away. Just let her live."
The meaning of this statement is very clear. At this time, allowing her to survive is the greatest mercy. As for the rest, Nan Yan will not do anything and can no longer do anything.
Tingfu said: "Yes."
Although this dragonfly had just experienced a huge change, it was very strong and followed Tingfu. When Nan Yan got on the carriage again, she felt that someone was watching them. When she turned around, it was Lu Linchuan.
The pirates who came out of Tiangang Lianhuanwu had dispersed as soon as they entered the city. Even Li Chen and Fang Zhen had disappeared. Only he was still following this team.
Nan Yan also glanced at him, said nothing, and got on the carriage.
The car and the people around it continued to move forward. Nan Yan sat on the side, looking coldly at the fire outside that was getting farther and farther away, but her eyes became even colder.
Zhu Chengjin suddenly spoke up, sneering and sarcastically saying, "As a noble concubine, you like to meddle in other people's affairs."
Nan Yan looked up at him.
Suddenly he asked, "Who was the first general to enter Jinling City during the siege? Could it be the one you mentioned earlier?"
"good."
“…”
"He is now in front. The palace gate should be opened by now."
Nan Yan narrowed her eyes slightly and said, "I guess you're going to reward this person handsomely later?"
"good."
"Then, do you know who was the first person to enter Jinling City during the Jingnan Campaign?"
When talking about the "Battle of Jingnan" that year, Zhu Chengjin's face suddenly darkened.
He gritted his teeth and said viciously, "Chen Fu."
Nan Yan narrowed her eyes and sneered at him: "You really know."
Zhu Chengjin said: "Of course I will never forget this kind of person."
“…”
"If he were still alive, I would have killed him. However, I heard that he died not long after entering the city."
Nan Yan sneered: "Yes, he is dead."
At this time, Zhu Chengjin turned around and looked at her: "Since he was the first person to enter Jinling City, why was he killed?"
Nan Yan said lightly, "Because he offended the emperor, he was beaten to death by the emperor's order."
Zhu Chengjin sneered after hearing this and said, "That's perfect."
Nan Yan murmured, "Yes, just in time..."
After saying that, she said nothing more, but turned her head and continued to watch the tragic situation outside. From time to time, she also glanced at the dragonfly following behind Tingfu.
Judging from where the family just now lived, they should have been a wealthy family. It was a pity that their family was destroyed. The girl was delicate and tender, and should have been a delicate young lady, but at this time, her home had been burned down. She was covered in filth and full of trauma, and she followed the carriage step by step, crying as she walked.
That's how people are.
Those who can endure it will become strong; those who cannot will be reduced to dust.
Under normal circumstances, Nan Yan might have taken some time to comfort her, but at this moment, she was in no mood or energy to do so.
Her entire energy is now focused on one thing—
Palace!
When they were on the river, Jinling City had just been breached. According to her guess, the troops in the city must have been immediately withdrawn and recalled to the Jinling Palace. However, they only saw some scattered soldiers along the way, which means that Zhu Chengjin's military advisor was now leading a large group of troops to attack the palace.
It's just a matter of time.
When the gates of Jinling were breached and the news could not be spread out, the palace was like an isolated island.
It is only a matter of time before it is breached.
Now she just wants to know who this person is!
The carriage continued to move forward. Although there were not many people on the street, after the war, the streets were littered with things that had been kicked over. Often, someone had to come forward to clean up after a while. It was already late at night when they finally arrived at the palace.
Nan Yan suppressed her inner anxiety, lifted the curtain on the window and stuck her head out.
The troops on both sides held up torches, and the blazing flames illuminated the crimson gate in front of them, which had also been knocked to the ground. She had a deeper impression of the red color, which was probably stained with blood.
There were still many corpses on the ground, all of which were cleared to both sides.
At this time, the carriage stopped.
No matter how crazy Zhu Chengjin was, he would not drive into the palace. He took Nan Yan out of the carriage, and the soldiers on both sides, including his right-hand man and some people who looked like counselors and followers, also jumped off their horses.
Among the people here, Dragonfly was probably the only one who had never seen such a big scene and was terrified.
Nan Yan only warned: "Follow me closely."
After saying that, the group walked inside.
At this moment, even if Nan Yan closed her eyes, she could imagine the situation in the palace. After all, just a few months ago, the Earthly Immortals Association had caused such a scene in the capital, and at that time, she and Zhu Chengxuan were still in charge of the palace, and it was a mess.
The Jinling Palace was not like the Peking Palace where there was an emperor and imperial concubine, so the guards were naturally not as strict as those there. By this time, all the guards had been beaten back and scattered. Even from a distance, the sounds of hacking and killing could be heard from the harem. It was obvious that the guards who were killed had retreated into the harem.
But at this time, all the killing has come to an end.
The road was full of people. Although their clothes could not reveal their identities, as soon as they saw Zhu Chengjin coming in, they all put their swords on the ground and knelt down to salute. They were obviously the people left behind by the "military advisor" to ensure Zhu Chengjin's safety along the way.
They walked in and looked up to see the hall brightly lit in the night.
Nan Yan's breathing was almost suffocated.
A few people ran over, their clothes different from those of the surrounding guards. When they saw Zhu Chengjin, they immediately bowed and saluted. Zhu Chengjin asked, "Where is the military advisor?"
Those people said, "The military advisor is waiting for you in the hall."
"Why don't you meet me here?"
"Well, the military advisor said that the young master left from there, and now, we should welcome him back from there."
After hearing this, Zhu Chengjin's expression eased slightly.
He dismissed his attendants, turned back to look at Nan Yan, and said with a sneer, "Want to see me come back? Then follow me."
After saying that, he lifted his skirt and stepped onto the stone steps.
Nan Yan took a deep breath and followed him up.
