Enchanting Wife: Slave’s Cold Husband - C248

His chest was pierced through for a long distance, his left hand was cut off, and with his blindness, he was simply a piece of trash.

It was not easy to accept that such a proud and aloof emperor was slowly falling into such a state.

“Have you checked it out?” Bei Chen Han asked.

Although he could not see it, Shadow still knelt on the ground and replied respectfully: “Yes, yes. The Prime Minister sent someone to assassinate him.” He paused for a moment before continuing, “The Prime Minister wants to exterminate all those who are related to the royal family in order to rebel.”

Bei Chen Han replied: “Where is he?”

“Your subordinate has imprisoned everyone related to this assassination attempt.” Shadow returned.

“Alright.”

The room fell into silence again. Bei Chen suddenly said: “Return to the palace.”

Shadow raised his head in surprise, looking at Beichen. However, he could not find any gap in their master’s face, who was still as cold and emotionless as ever. In the end, he said, “Yes.”

The Umbra thought, in the end, people like them couldn’t understand their master’s mind. It was precisely because their mind was so meticulous that they were able to stand at such a high place, and no one could compare to them.

Su Nuo only found out about it on the third day after Bei Chen Han left, Bei Chen Han left. From a certain point of view, she did not know how she should choose, but what she should choose was the right choice!

She doesn’t know.

However, after the assassination attempt, no one brought up the matter of the marriage anymore. The Duke of Bei Chen didn’t say anything, Yan Qingcheng didn’t say anything, and Situ Ai didn’t say anything.

Before Bai Qian left, he wanted to say something to Su Nuo, but in the end, he only hugged Su Nuo and said, “Nou’er, don’t be burdened. No matter what you want to do, no one will blame you, because these matters can no longer be described as right or wrong.”

Su Nuo had nodded her head, but even so, her heart was at a loss, something that could not be changed.

On the sixth day after Beichen’s departure, a shocking piece of news came out of the city. When they tried to assassinate the Prime Minister, they were executed and their corpses were hung at the city gate to serve as an example.

Of course, Su Nuo and Duke Bei Chen did not watch. Yan Qingcheng did not say anything, but only Situ Ai angrily said, “Serves you right.” The scholar was following closely beside her, and she wanted to retort, but seeing Situ Ai’s expression, she obediently shut her mouth.

The palace.

Bei Chen Han leaned on the dragon throne, still in the highest position, his whole body hidden in the dark shadows, his expression unreadable.

The man who was next to Bei Chenghan said in the shadow, “Master, it’s done.”

Beichen replied: “I’ll send it over at noon tomorrow.”

“Yes.” Shadow secretly lifted his head to look at Beichen’s face, but he was so scared that he quickly lowered his head, as if he could still see Beichen’s face.

Noon of the second day.

Just as Su Nuo and the rest finished their meal, they heard someone call them out to receive the imperial edict. However, when they heard the news, everyone was slightly surprised.

Su Nuo did not speak. From the beginning to the end, she just left with no expression on her face.

Yan Qingcheng didn’t say anything as well. It was unknown what she was thinking about with that grave expression on her face.

Situ Ai grabbed the imperial edict and studied it in disbelief, as if it was fake. Finally, Duke Bei Chen took the imperial edict. Situ Ai still couldn’t believe him, “Big brother Jue, Bei Chen Han actually wants to return the throne to you, how is that possible?”

No one present answered her question. On the other hand, the scholar was completely dumbfounded. He had never thought that the person with him would be the future emperor.

“Third Marquis, could this be another trick of Beichen’s?” Even though Yan Qingcheng did not believe that this was Bei Chenghan’s scheme, she had seen many things with her own eyes. After all, he was just one person, and he had his emotions and desires.

The Duke of Beichen shook his head.

The truth proved that Bei Chen Han was not joking with him, and it was definitely not a ploy to harm him. After all, he had worked hard for so many years, and now he had returned the favor back to him.

The Duke of Beichen and his men returned to the palace. The imperial palace was still as magnificent as ever. At a glance, the golden palace was tinged with a scarlet tint.

Seeing them enter, a silhouette in black approached and knelt in front of the Duke, saying, “Master said, from today onwards, all the shadows will follow you.” Then, more than twenty shadows emerged from all four directions and kneeled in front of the Duke.

The Duke of Beichen frowned, “Did Beichang Han leave any message?”

“Master said that his only request is to use the power in your hands to protect Lady Su Nuo.”

These words were not heavy, but they could clearly be heard in this not especially large hall.

The expression on Su Nuo’s face remained unchanged. Yan Qingcheng cast a glance at him, but she knew that Su Nuo’s heart had undergone a change. This was because that smile of hers that could only remain on the corner of her lips had already disappeared.

The Duke of Beichen did not decline, and smoothly ascended the throne once again. Although the citizens of Beichen Kingdom were a little strange, the emperor had actually changed them several times in just a few years. He was just saying that as long as the country flourished, the citizens would be the best.

Life returned to a calm state in an instant, and it was very, very peaceful. Su Nuo was still accompanying Duke Bei Chen every day. While Duke Bei Chen was reading the imperial reports, Su Nuo was grinding him down to the side, or making tea. They had been together for too long, so there were no longer any ripples.

Bei Chen Han seemed to have completely disappeared, never to appear in their lives again, not even to appear by Su Nuo’s side. There was not even a hint of news about him appearing.

Unknowingly, even autumn had passed.

In the early winter, it was unknown if it was because it was truly cold this year, but snow had begun to fall profusely. Su Nuo made two cotton-padded jackets for Duke Beichen, and personally helped him put them on. He lowered his head and fastened the buttons bit by bit. Then, he stretched out his hand and carefully smoothed the wrinkles on his clothes.

The Duke of Beichen suddenly stretched out his hand to embrace Su Nuo, but he did not have any sudden feeling of warmth. The Duke of Beichen spoke softly next to Su Nuo’s ear, “Little Nuo, go and see him.”

Su Nuo’s body stiffened. She wanted to shake her head, but Northern Chen said, “Little Nuo, you have to know, I love you. Su Nuo’s body stiffened, she wanted to shake her head, but Northern Chen said,” Little Nuo, you have to know, I love you.

Su Nuo’s fingers clutched at the Beichen’s clothes tightly, not saying a word.

“Little Nuo, don’t be afraid, don’t panic. No matter what happens, I will always be here. As long as you want to find me, you will always be able to see me for the first time.” The Duke of Beichen’s words were like the most melodious love words in the world, and also the warmest form of consolation.

Su Nuo nodded his head, and then tightly hugged the Duke of Northern Stellar City.

That’s right, she had gone back on her word. With regards to the viscount position, she would never keep her word. She would always be like this.

I’m sorry!

I’m sorry!

However, this time, she would never say those three pale and weak words again. They were truly too feeble and did not carry any weight.

Su Nuo left. That day, it was Lord Beichen who sent her to the carriage, giving her the address that she had finally gotten from the Umbra’s mouth. Finally, he smiled and kissed her forehead. It was just that Su Nuo did not see the carriage start moving, nor did she hear it. With a quiet voice, the Duke of Bei Chen said, “Evil child, Big brother will never leave you. So, no matter what you want to do, it’s okay.”

It’s all right.

That year, when he was cultivating, he suddenly woke up. His unfilial son said to him over and over again, “Big brother, if you don’t come, I won’t go.”

At that time, his heart would be broken. He would never be able to complete it again. He had thought that he would never forget. He had thought that as long as he carved the name of his evil child into his palm with a knife, he would never forget.

Therefore, in this life, to be able to meet his evil son and fall in love with him was already the greatest happiness he could have.

Yes, that year, the Duke of Bei Zhen almost died, but he did not die. In that long period of unconsciousness, he had a long dream, he always thought it was a dream, knowing that the white bearded old man appeared in front of him, sighing as he looked at him, asking him, why are you still so stubborn?

Knowing that moment, he finally understood why he was so fixated on little Nuo, and why even if there was no reward, he still hoped that his little Nuo would be able to obtain the best. That was because he was the evil child that he had been waiting for thousands or tens of thousands of years for.

Therefore, his unfilial son, ah, did not need to fear or worry at all. As long as his unfilial son continued to walk forward like this, it would be good as long as he was happy as he walked.

Good!

Su Nuo got off the carriage, and the carriage left.

It was a relatively hidden forest, and the surrounding trees were not very lush, but it was very comfortable looking. In the depths of the forest, there was a house made of bamboo. It wasn’t too big, but it was suitable for living.

In front of the little bamboo house was a small mountain stream. The clear water was slowly leaving behind a clear gurgling sound.

Su Nuo looked at the little bamboo house in front of her and suddenly smiled. The smile from when Xi Ling left hung at the corner of her mouth once more. She raised her head, completely exposing her face to the snow, allowing it to fall onto her face and clothes. That’s right, there was actually no need for her to make things difficult for herself. Moreover, the reason she came back was not because of love.

As long as it wasn’t love, then what was there to hesitate about?

“Ling, I don’t have any feelings for you, I really don’t have any. It’s just that, you might have to wait a bit longer for me.”

Su Nuo walked over and pushed open the door, which was tightly shut, blocking out the bright light. In an instant, the dark room suddenly became bright, and Su Nuo saw Bei Chen Han in the corner.

Su Nuo was still shocked. She had more or less thought about it, but she really hadn’t expected it to be like this. After all, in her mind, Beichen had never been in a sorry state before.
