Passion On Beauty Rather Than Power - C232
In those sixteen years, small countries on the border invaded and attacked, and at that time, General Xia Xiong, who was guarding the border, joined forces with other forces on the outside, causing the borders of the Tian Sheng to suffer heavy losses. Not long after, the city was destroyed and countless citizens were displaced, grieving everywhere.
After several days and nights of careful discussion with the Prince Zhang, the Emperor decided to send the Prince Zhan to lead the army to war, completely wiping out the former dynasty’s restoration organization and the plans to invade the Wind Shattering Nation and the Agi Nation.
After Prince Zhan received the orders from the Emperor, his heart felt a bit heavy. He had a nagging feeling that this departure was not normal, as if he had lost something.
After the Emperor gave the order, he gave Prince Zhan a half-day leave with concern. “Go back to your residence and explain everything properly. Tomorrow morning, I will send you off at the city gate.”
Nangong Waner’s health was not good, for the past few days he had been lying on his bed resting. Ju Xiang also found it strange, and asked a few times, “Miss, it’s rare for the Prince to not stop you from leaving, why are you so obedient these few days?
If Nangong Waner was to hide her body from the Prince Zhan, naturally, even Ju Xiang would not want to reveal it to him. Every time Ju Xiang asked her about it, she would beat him up, “Aiya, you actually said that you’re the daughter of an old Elementary Scholar, you have never heard of someone dozing off in the spring or summer, I’m just taking a nap.”
“Yes, miss. You are taking a nap. The rest of the day, except for eating, is spent on taking a nap.”
The young miss’ personality had always been her own, but Ju Xiang did not suspect anything, and continued to lie on the bed everyday.
Just as Prince Zhan was returning to the Duke’s Palace in excitement and seeing the door tightly shut, he had a trace of doubt in his heart. After all, it was daytime at that time and the sun was at its best.
Ju Xiang heard the commotion and rushed over to pay his respects to Prince Zhan.
“Wan Er, are you in the room?” Prince Zhan asked lightly.
“Reporting to Your Highness, Miss has been a little drowsy these days, Miss called it taking a nap, and is indeed in her room.” Ju Xiang answered respectfully.
When the Prince Zhan heard this, he did not think too much into it. He thought that it might be because he had been away for a long time, and Nangong Waner was probably bored again. Prince Zhan did not say anything as he gently pushed open the door …
Nangong Waner heard someone opening the door, and struggled to half sit up, she turned and looked at the door, she saw a blurry figure, although blurry, she could still recognize him, the figure was already deep inside her heart, even without using her eyes, she could still tell that it was Chu Xiuhan!
However, even now, she could not see Chu Xiuhan’s face clearly. She… She really wanted to see Chu Xiuhan’s face again.
Nangong Waner couldn’t help but shed two streams of tears. Although she tried to hold it in, she couldn’t help but say, “Chu Xiuhan …” Nangong Waner’s soft and gentle voice contained a lot of grievance, because when she thought about how the two of them had finally gotten together after a thousand years, it was actually so short, and she couldn’t help but have to part with them.
Nangong Waner endured it, holding back his tears as he smiled faintly.
Hearing Nangong Waner’s call, Prince Zhan felt his heart ache. He quickly walked to the side of the bed and hugged Nangong Waner tightly, then released a hand to stroke Nangong Waner’s hair. Seeing that Nangong Waner’s emotions were stable, he fiercely kissed him a few times.
“What is it? He’s still like a child. I’ve been dealing with political affairs in the palace for the past few days, and it was so easy for me to get some free time today that the emperor was willing to let me come back to see you. My Wan Er, tell me, did you suffer any grievances in the Duke Palaces, and have someone bullied you? ” Prince Zhan hugged Nangong Waner on one side and was unable to let go for a long time.
Nangong Wan’er had also calmed down, so she naturally could not show too much emotion and let Chu Xiuhan see the flaw, “It’s not that you never come back to accompany me, I just want to make you feel wronged. If only I could stay with you forever, but you said there’s no way to let me grow on you, so wherever you go, I can follow you.” “Nangong Wan’er shyly laid in his arms, before softly saying those words.
Although Prince Zhan felt that Nangong Waner’s words were a little strange today, he had no choice but to admit that he really liked what Nangong Waner had said.
“Wan Er… You also know that the borders have fallen. The Tian Sheng and the Emperor need me at the moment, and the Emperor has already passed down the order. Tomorrow, I will lead my troops to war. ” Although he didn’t want to, Prince Zhan still said these words resolutely, “Wan Er, you must wait for me, wait for me to come back, wait for me to marry you to become my only wangfei, okay?” Just as Prince Zhan finished speaking, she immediately hugged and kissed Nangong Waner deeply. That kiss was filled with deep emotions and guilt.
Nangong Waner cried until tears streamed down her face.
Wait for you, wait for you to come back, wait for you to come back and marry you.
But can I wait?
This time, when Prince Zhan returned, Nangong Waner seemed to stick close to him. For the whole half a day, Nangong Waner pestered Prince Zhan and let him carry it in his arms, reading the story from the drawing book for him, “Tell me about this, I still have a few pages to finish reading.”
“Tell me more about that book. I only need the last few pages to know the end of the story.”
Other than letting her be, what else could the Prince Zhan do? Although she was leaving the battle tomorrow, she had left the entire thing to Nangong Waner for half a day. She read for a very long time in the drawing book before Nangong Waner fell asleep again. Prince Zhan refused to leave for a long time. He carried the sleeping Nangong Waner in his arms just like that, while Prince Zhan watched on quietly.
Seeing Nangong Waner’s sleeping appearance, there was a very long time that he would not be able to see even if he wanted to.
Prince Zhan was moved when she thought about it. She then bent over and kissed Nangong Waner’s long eyelashes, Nangong Waner’s small and exquisite nose, and Nangong Waner’s alluring rosy lips.
Time flew, and in the blink of an eye, it was time for dinner. Prince Zhan did not call Wan Er when she was asleep, but Nangong Waner seemed to have grabbed hold of some time, as his eyelids twitched, and he slowly woke up.
Prince Zhan looked at Nangong Waner and smiled gently. “I thought that if you didn’t eat dinner, you would have directly fallen asleep.”
“How can that be? This is my last dinner with you. I must eat with you.” Nangong Waner laughed emotionally, but Prince Zhan misunderstood him, thinking that Nangong Waner was referring to him travelling to the border.
“Ju Xiang, put the dinner here. I’m going to eat on the bed.” Nangong Waner hollered out as he looked at the outside of the room with an empty expression.
“Eating in bed?” Prince Zhan raised his eyebrows and asked Nangong Waner.
“Yes, it’s on the bed. Feed me.” Nangong Waner spoke with confidence and confidence, not allowing the Prince Zhan to reject him.
The Prince Zhan could not do anything but laugh and agree.
