Emperor Nanling spoke with a smile on his face, but it was more like a person choosing his last words before death.

"Retreat!" Seeing that no one had any objections, Emperor Nanling announced his resignation.

As soon as Emperor Nanling returned to the palace, he changed into a set of casual clothes and rode out of the palace alone.

Although he went alone, he did not have the slightest fear in his heart. He thought back to the time when he was an iron horse, holding a dragon-scale whip, killing a hundred with one blow, and five thousand elite soldiers defeated the 30,000 soldiers and horses of the imperial city, and killed the faint king to inherit the throne. Now a single

What is the little assassin afraid of!

Because he seldom left the palace and didn't know much about private teahouses, Emperor Nanling asked many people along the way before he found it. By the time he arrived, it was almost noon.

Emperor Nanling dismounted and saw several armored guards with helmets standing at the door. The silence in Mingyue Tea House seemed to have been reserved. Looking at the situation, the person who asked him out should not be ordinary people.

"Emperor Nanling, please come in." A guard came forward and made a gesture of invitation, and led him upstairs.

Emperor Nanling went upstairs and saw a young man in blue sitting with his back to him drinking tea. Just looking at his back, he felt majestic and aristocratic.

"You're here, earlier than I thought. Take a seat." Xiao Langtian did not stand up to greet him, but pointed to the seat opposite and said with a faint smile.

"How is my daughter?!" Emperor Nanling sat opposite Xiao Langtian and stared at him sharply, but he was shocked when he saw this face.

"Why is it you?" Emperor Nanling asked in surprise. He remembered this face. The young man in blue in front of him was really the eldest prince of Shuxing Kingdom, Xiao Langtian.

When he went to the Hundred Flowers Banquet of Shuxing Kingdom, he met him. At that time, Emperor Xiao loved his two sons very much. At that time, he made him, the eldest prince, and another prince sit beside him, but he didn't know that he

Why kidnapped her daughter.

"I didn't expect that Emperor Nanling has such a good memory that he still remembers me, Xiao Langtian, the deposed prince. Don't worry, your daughter, Princess Mengdie, is fine now, but if you don't obey me, it will be difficult to say..."

·“

A cold smile appeared at the corner of Xiao Langmo's mouth, he lowered his head and played with the tea cup in his hand, and said slowly.

"I don't want to talk nonsense to you. Just tell me what your purpose is!" Emperor Nanling ignored him and went straight to the point.

"Okay, I like to deal with cheerful people! My purpose is very simple, that is, you, Emperor Nanling, want to help me conquer Shuxing Kingdom." Xiao Langtian placed the tea cup in his hand heavily on the table, his face

With a sinister smile, he looked at Emperor Nanling and said.

"What? As the prince of your own country, you actually want me to help you fight against your own country, haha... This is really the most ridiculous thing in the world!" Emperor Nanling laughed and looked at Xiao with a mocking look on his face.

Langtian, at the same time, secretly sighed for Emperor Xiao in his heart. It was such a sin to give birth to such a son!

"Hmph! If that scoundrel Xiao Langtian hadn't framed me, how could I have been demoted to a commoner by my father?! If he hadn't stood in front of me, I would have been the crown prince! They forced me to do all this!"

Xiao Langtian stared at Emperor Nanling with his eyes burning with hatred, and said fiercely.

"There is no smoke without fire. If you don't harm others, they will naturally not harm you. Sometimes your destiny must be there, but when your destiny is not there, don't force it. Being an emperor is not necessarily a good thing. How chilling your father will be if you do this...

"Emperor Nanling sighed. As a father, he understood Emperor Xiao's heart very well.

"No! I want to be the emperor! My mother was the queen during her lifetime, and I am the queen's son, so I am the legitimate prince. Why should that scoundrel Xiao Langtian take what originally belonged to me?! I don't accept it! He is obviously the emperor.

Partiality, they are unkind, and I am unjust! When I conquer Shuxing Kingdom, I will be the emperor of Shuxing Kingdom."

"Emperor Xiao wants Xiao Langmo to be the crown prince. He has his own reasons. Why are you insisting?" Emperor Nanling shook his head helplessly. He used to think that being an emperor was very good, one person was inferior to ten thousand people, but when he waited

After truly becoming an emperor, I realized that it was always cold at high places, and that being an emperor also had a lot of helplessness, and every step had to be taken carefully.

"That's enough, I don't want to listen to your nonsense anymore! Just tell me whether you agree to send troops to help me!" Xiao Langtian immediately interrupted Emperor Nanling's words and returned to his original expression. Because Emperor Nanling's words made him upset.

He was confused, and there was an idea in his heart that he wanted to shake. He couldn't give up, he wanted to be the emperor of Shuxin Kingdom!

Emperor Nanling thought for a while. Nanling Kingdom and Shuxing Kingdom have always been on good terms with each other for so many years and have never fought. Moreover, the two parties have also made a contract of eternal friendship. If he agrees to Xiao Langtian's request, it will be a long time.

It is equivalent to breaking the contract, and the subjects of the two countries will suffer. But now Mengdie is in danger, falling into the hands of Xiao Langtian, her life is in danger, he only has such a daughter...

Emperor Nanling was silent for a long time, and finally made up his mind and made the most difficult decision in his life, and also the most selfish one.

"Okay, I promise you! However, you must ensure the safety of my daughter, Princess Mengdie, and send her back without any injuries!" Emperor Nanling said coldly.

"Of course there is no problem with this, but Princess Mengdie cannot be released now. She will have to wait until the battle is over before she can be sent back. But don't worry, I will never touch a hair on her during this period. I will keep my promise!" Xiao

Langtian said with a smile.

"You can do your best!" Emperor Nanling glanced at Xiao Langtian, waved his sleeves, and left.

At this time, Nie Mengdie, who had been in a coma, finally woke up. Nie Mengdie slowly opened her eyes and found herself in a strange room. The hollow carved windows and coffins were filled with specks of sunlight, and the details shone brightly.

After taking a closer look, he saw that beneath him was a soft wooden bed with exquisite carvings and decorations, and above him was a brocade quilt.

There were two maids standing beside the bed, and four or five helmeted guards standing at the door. Judging from their clothes, they were the ones who kidnapped her that night, so the only thing Nie Mengdie thought about was that she had been kidnapped.

, but fortunately, he is not dead yet.

"Princess, are you awake?" One of the maids saw Nie Mengdie opening her eyes and wanting to get up, so she quickly and carefully helped her up.

The moment Nie Mengdie stood up, she felt like her whole body was about to fall apart, as if she had been abused.

"Oh, it hurts me to death!" Nie Mengdie said with a painful look on her face, covering her shoulders.

"Princess, you are injured in many places. My servant has given you medicine. Please rest for a while." Another maid advised from the side.

When Nie Mengdie saw that they were so kind to her and arranged such a comfortable room, she felt very strange. Could it be that she was robbed and made the wife of a stronghold?! But this didn't look like a copycat either...

··

"I wonder if the princess is resting well?" Just as Nie Mengdie was wondering, a masked man in black wearing a black robe and a black hat walked in.

Although Nie Mengdie couldn't see his appearance, she could tell based on his body shape and voice that this person was the person who kidnapped her last night.

"Hey, what do you want to do? I don't want to be your wife!" Nie Mengdie saw that he was wearing a mask all day long, and guessed that he must be very ugly, otherwise

Why don't you dare to show your true colors to others?

"What? Mrs. Yazhai?! Hahahaha... The princess is joking, our place is not a copycat, and I don't dare to marry you as a wife." The man in black laughed and looked at Nie with disdain.

A glance at Mengdie.

Even the maid next to her couldn't help laughing. This princess's imagination is too rich...

"Then why did you bring me here? Do you know who my father is?!" Although Nie Mengdie felt embarrassed when she guessed wrong, she still looked very proud when she spoke. If you villains know who my father is,

Who, look at you, can you still laugh?!

"Of course I know that the princess's father is the Nanling Emperor. Otherwise, why would I arrest you?" The man in black smiled lightly,

"You know better than to let me go!" Nie Mengdie shouted loudly.

"Princess, don't worry, I will send you back when this battle is over." The man in black smiled, glanced at Nie Mengdie coldly, then turned and left.

"What kind of battle? Hey... don't leave! You haven't answered my question yet!"

"I'm keeping an eye on you, don't let the princess step out of the room! There are still good people waiting for you. You can eat and drink whatever you want, but you can't be lazy at all!" The man in black calmed down after hearing this, and turned around.

He ordered the two maids beside Nie Mengdie.

"Yes." The two maids replied calmly.

When Nie Mengdie saw that the man in black ignored her and walked away minding his own business, he lay down angrily and continued to rest.

Just when she was about to close her eyes and sleep, she heard her stomach growl in protest again.

The maid on the side covered her face and said with a smile: "Princess, are you hungry? I will prepare something for you right now."

With that said, the maid got ready to go out and prepare the meal.

"Wait a minute! I am a foreigner, and the dishes you prepared are definitely not to my liking. Listen carefully, I want to make longevity soup, eggplant stewed with golden cakes, spare ribs stewed with colored jade, yuba cooked with sweet-scented osmanthus and green bamboo shoots, and lily and mung bean porridge.

······Romantic Caviar Noodles, let’s start with these.” Nie Mengdie murmured a long list of dish names, which made the two maids beside her stunned.

First of all, not to mention that they have never heard of the names of these dishes. Even if they find someone to make so many dishes, will the princess be able to finish them?

"My slave, I remember, it's just..." one of the maids said timidly.

"It's just what?! Didn't the man in black just say that? I'm satisfied with what I want to eat and drink, but don't hurry up and go!" Nie Mengdie said angrily. In fact, these dishes were just made up by her to deliberately embarrass her.

Their.

"Yes, yes... slave, I'll go right now." The slave quickly nodded and bowed his head and replied.

Although he was kidnapped, the treatment was generally good. Anyway, he was injured, and whether he had the dragon scale whip beside him, he wouldn't be able to escape for a while. It would be better to eat more delicious food, or

The injuries he suffered were in vain. Once the injuries were healed, it would not be too late to escape.

"Go and bring the pastries on the table to my princess." Nie Mengdie covered her growling stomach and ordered the remaining maid.

"Yes." The maid had never seen such a tormenting master. She did not dare to neglect for a moment, and quickly and cautiously brought the sweet-scented osmanthus cake and water chestnut cake on the table to Nie Mengdie.

Nie Mengdie asked while eating: "Hey, look at how scared you are when the man in black is mentioned, who is he?"

The maid glanced at Nie Mengdie, lowered her head, and kept her mouth tight without speaking.

Seeing that she didn't answer his question, Nie Mengdie put down the cake in her hand and gave a sly smile: "It's okay if you don't answer my question. When the man in black comes, I'll tell him that you are neglecting me.

He disrespects me and doesn't give me food to eat. Do you think he would kill you if he believed it?"

"Princess, please spare your life, this slave girl says so..." The slave girl was so frightened that she quickly knelt down and begged for mercy.

"Then why don't you tell me quickly?" Nie Mengdie said with a smile.

"Yes, the man in black you are talking about is our high priest and the most trusted person around our master." The maid replied tremblingly.

"Then do you know why your high priest kidnapped me?" Nie Mengdie continued to ask, hoping to find out more information from her.
To be continued...
