Chapter 252



On the wedding day, Yan Sikong seemed to be able to hear the noise from the outside world even through the walls of the courtyard.

All the soldiers in the army must be delighted, they worship the Wolf King as a god, and the Wolf King's marriage is a grand ceremony, not to mention that they can have enough meat and wine, which is of course a great pleasure for them who have been suppressed for a long time under the strict military discipline of the Wolf King.

Yan Sikong felt that he and the people outside were not in the same human world. They had fought side by side not long ago, but now he was afraid that no one would remember him, or even if they did, they would be full of contempt.

But he didn't even care what Feng Ye thought, so how could he care what "others" thought.

He just suddenly felt a little craving for wine. The glass of wine last night was indeed a good wine, but he couldn't drink it.

Everything that happened last night could not be erased from his mind, especially the red of Xipa, which was too bright and too dazzling. He had never thought that there would be a red in the world that would hurt him more and be more unforgettable than blood.

Tonight, Feng Ye will marry a woman. It will be solemn, gorgeous, and joyful. They will receive everyone's attention and congratulations. They will be married legitimately and naturally. From now on, her name will spread throughout the world as Feng Ye's legal wife. They will hear countless words of praise, and they will be recorded in history books and passed down from generation to generation.

He sincerely hoped that Princess Yunlong could give birth to a son for the Feng family. In this way, he would not have to feel guilty towards Prince Jingyuan. After all, having no offspring was a great act of filial piety. He had been convicted of enough crimes by Feng Yeding and did not want to be put in another shackle.

When he married Wan Yang and the whole city celebrated, Feng Ye was imprisoned and had nothing. Now the two of them have switched places and have the same fate. Sometimes he wondered if they were cursed, or if the more God gave, the more he took away, so that sometimes he hated Feng Ye, sometimes he hated himself, and sometimes he hated no one but his fate.

It was time to deliver the meal, and the person who came was the jailer who had been taught a lesson by him last time. He behaved much more obediently after seeing him.

The jailer put the food outside the iron fence and suddenly whispered, "Master Yan is really patient."

Yan Sikong was shocked, turned around abruptly, walked to the iron fence, and asked in a trembling voice: "You... She Jun?"

The "jailer" stood up, and upon careful observation, it could be seen that he had deliberately hunched his body. After standing up straight, he was a little taller and his eyes were much clearer. He was definitely not the same person as the day before.

Yan Sikong excitedly rushed to the iron fence and grabbed the man's arm: "She Jun?!"

He recognized the voice, and even more so the temperament. The person who came was She Zhun in disguise.

She Jun looked at the pale and haggard Yan Sikong, feeling both sad and angry: "Look at yourself, you schemed against others, and in the end you ended up in this situation?"

Yan Sikong smiled bitterly and said, "She Zhun, I haven't seen you for two years. I miss you very much."

She Jun said angrily, "Really? Do you really miss me?"

"Really, but you shouldn't come here. I miss you, but I don't want to see you. I don't want to see you involved in this."

"When have I ever been away from right and wrong?"

Yan Sikong sighed, "If you just hide in the dark and gather intelligence, you can advance or retreat. You are a cunning rabbit with three burrows and you are so cunning that no one can catch you. Why did you come here?"

"Why? If it wasn't for saving you, why would I put myself in danger?!"

Yan Sikong felt guilty and touched: "She Zhun, thank you. You have known me for many years. You should know that the closer people are to me, the worse their fate will be. I am not making excuses. I just don't want to implicate you. Do you understand?"

She Jun said coldly, "I have been in the underworld since I was a teenager. I have never taken the honor or disgrace of my life to heart. You say that you are doomed to be alone, but I am also alone. If it weren't for you, I would have died on the street long ago. You don't need to tell me what I am willing to do."

"She Zhun, this time is different from last time. If I run away, Feng Ye will definitely track you down."

"So what?" She Zhun looked at Yan Sikong steadily. "When I heard that my subordinates were captured by Feng Ye, I knew that something must have happened to you. Before I even arrived in Taiyuan, the news of your collusion with the enemy had already reached my ears. But did you...really have an affair with Chen Mi?"

Yan Sikong was stunned for a moment, then smiled indifferently: "Everyone in the world thinks that I am used to being a traitor and that I always go against the wind, but this time, I was framed."

She Jun said in a deep voice: "I don't believe you would betray Feng Ye either. You value him more than revenge and your own life. You seem to be ruthless, but you are also tired of being sentimental, Nan Yu..."

"Don't call me Nanyu anymore." Yan Sikong blurted out.

She Jun was stunned for a moment, then remembered something: "Oh, your brother..."

Yan Sikong had already told She Jun about his reunion with Yuan Nanyu, but what he didn't tell She Jun was that Feng Ye had mistaken their identities. Now, the only one who called him Nanyu was the villain Yuan Shaoxu. He didn't want his only friend to call him like that; it sounded too harsh.

Yan Sikong looked at She Jun worriedly: "How are you going to help me? Even if I leave here, where can I go?"

"How is it not better than prison?" She Jun touched the mask on his face. "Feng Ye is getting married tonight, and the security in the city is loose. It's a chance to escape."

"I can't leave by myself. If I leave, Ali will surely die." Yan Sikong lowered his eyes. "Under Feng Ye's command, we have never let our guard down. Even when it was his wedding, the guards on duty would never dare to slack off."

"Of course I will save Ali and take him with me. No matter what, there will be no good chance if we miss today." She Jun said disgustedly, "If you don't give it a try, do you plan to rot in prison? You and Feng Ye promised each other your life when you were young, and you have accompanied him in the battlefields and made plans for the past two years. You have even fought against the imperial court for him. Even with such a good relationship, you still can't win his trust. He doesn't care about our old friendship at all. What are you still hesitating about?"

"She Zhun, it's not that I'm reluctant to leave." Yan Sikong said worriedly, "I'm just afraid that if I fail, I won't be able to protect you and Ali!"

"Ali is loyal to you. He will not let you suffer humiliation just to survive. I have made some arrangements. No matter what, we must try." She Jun stared at Yan Sikong. "Whether you want to leave or not, just one word."

Yan Sikong and She Jun looked at each other from a distance, and was shocked by the determination in She Jun's eyes.

Does he want to leave?

He thought.

He wanted to leave this person who had stabbed him so hard. The world was so big, there must be a place for him. Perhaps never seeing each other again in this life was the best ending for him and Feng Ye. In this way, if the love and hatred were diluted by time after a few years, he could still remember a little bit of the good things in the past.

He nodded tremblingly.

"That's it, wait for my news."

"Wait." Yan Sikong calmed down quickly. "In my courtyard in Feng Mansion, there is something buried under the second tree facing south. You can sneak into the mansion disguised as a guest at night and dig it out. It will help us."

"What is it?"

"A mask."
