After making a decision, Chen Tian walked into a shop and bought a map of the northern part of the Panning Kingdom. He especially emphasized that the three city gates should be marked on the map. The boss did not ask any questions and found Chen Tian a map of cowhide.
Although the map looks tattered, the markings are very clear.
After Chen Tian checked that there was no problem, he paid the money and left with the map. He did not stay too long in the city, but rushed to a city gate marked on the map.
…
In the empire, a huge palace stands in the center of a prosperous capital city that spreads thousands of miles. The palace is majestic and domineering. The dim sky gives the palace a stronger sense of oppression. A powerful and mysterious aura comes from every corner, making the whole place feel more oppressive.
The palace appears more mysterious and dangerous.
In the main hall of the palace, a middle-aged man wearing a dragon robe sat on a high throne. A young man stood respectfully below the main hall. When the sight was closer, the young man's face gradually became clearer.
He is none other than She Junyi, who went to the Panning Kingdom to propose marriage a month ago.
At this time, the middle-aged man sitting on the dragon chair said: "Yi'er, what are your plans for tomorrow?"
She Junyi, who was standing respectfully in the main hall, said softly: "Everything must be obeyed by the father!"
The middle-aged man spoke again: "What do you think of the Princess of Panning Kingdom?"
She Junyi chuckled and said: "Father, don't worry, I just regard her as a plaything and will never really be tempted by her."
"Haha! You are very relieved to be a father with this realization. You must know that marrying the Panning Kingdom is only the first step to annexing them. You must not really be sincere towards the Princess of the Panning Kingdom and thus break your father's plan.
"
She Junyi bent down and said respectfully: "My child knows!"
The middle-aged man nodded and continued: "The Penning Kingdom is now in a difficult situation with enemies from both sides. This is a great opportunity for us to get involved in the empire. Once we annex the Penning Kingdom, our country's comprehensive strength will be among the top thirty.
In the Eastern Conference three years later, I will also have a place in the Empire."
Having said this, the middle-aged man's eyes were blazing, as if he had already seen the bright future of the She empire, and imagined the grand scene of the She empire soaring into the sky.
Even She Junyi, who was standing in the main hall, had blazing eyes. His father had been chanting the words "Eastern Competition" in his ears since he was a child. Although he didn't know what the Eastern Competition was specifically, he knew that once he entered the Eastern Competition
Having a place above others means that the She Empire can soar into the sky and get rid of the current embarrassing situation of being neither up nor down.
The middle-aged man's fiery gaze quickly disappeared and he said calmly: "Yi'er, tomorrow I will send four people from Tiangang and Disha to accompany you, and I will also send Shegeng secretly to deal with emergencies. Although this marriage is only mine.
It's just a chess piece, but it can't make any mistakes, and it must not fall in the face of my empire."
She Junyi bowed and said: "Thank you, father, I will never let this happen."
The middle-aged man nodded. The four Tiangang Disha he sent were all masters of the fifth level of the Sword Control Realm. Secretly, there was also Shegeng, a peerless master of the Human Sword Separation Realm. Even if other countries wanted to cause trouble secretly, they would
You have to weigh it carefully.
"Okay, you go down and make preparations. You will leave early tomorrow morning." The middle-aged man waved his hand and said.
She Junyi bent down and backed away, exited the hall before straightening up and leaving.
…
In the dungeon of the Panning Kingdom's palace, Kan Jie sat cross-legged on the dark and damp ground. She seemed calm, but in fact she was anxious. Counting the time, tomorrow would be the deadline of one month. She had already pledged her allegiance to her lover.
The general learned about the agreement between She Junyi and her father. Seeing that the deadline was coming, she could not escape, let alone save her sister from danger. When she thought that her beloved sister since she was a child was about to fall into an irreversible situation, she
My heart felt cramped.
Just when she frowned, she heard the sound of a door opening outside the dungeon, and then she saw Emperor Panning striding over. He did not enter the dungeon where Kan Jie was imprisoned. He stood outside the dungeon in silence for a while and then said: "Jie'er,
You have been suffering this month, and my father promises that I will release you in three days at most, and you will still be restored to your position as general, and you will still be able to lead the army into battle to kill the enemy."
Kan Jie looked expressionlessly at Emperor Panning outside the dungeon, who was also his biological father, and sneered and said: "Going into battle to kill the enemy? Ridiculous, I can't even protect my closest sister, so why should I go into battle to kill the enemy?"
What's the use? Could it be that you, a cold-blooded and ruthless person, can bring peace to the world?"
Emperor Panning's face changed, but he still tried his best to say as kindly as possible: "Jie'er, I know you hate being your father, but you have to know that I did this for the tens of millions of people in the Panning Kingdom. I sacrificed Kan...,
I don’t think there’s anything wrong with sacrificing Yue’er alone to save tens of millions of people in the Panning Kingdom.”
"What a high-sounding reason. In order to please the She Empire, you can abandon your own daughter at will. What else can't you do?" Kan Jie didn't look good at all and said quarrelsomely.
Emperor Panning's expression changed again and again, and finally he could no longer pretend, and said angrily: "Kan Jie, as a father, you are trying to persuade me with good words, but you are pressing forward every step of the way. Are you really going to end up with a disagreement between father and daughter?"
Kan Jie simply turned his head away and said calmly: "Have you ever regarded me and Yue'er as daughters from the beginning to the end? We are just your pawns. If I hadn't shown a strong leadership since I was a child,
Talent, I’m afraid the current end is not much different from Yue’er!”
Emperor Panning's face was extremely ugly. He flicked his sleeves and robe and turned to leave. As the dungeon door closed, the dungeon fell into silence again.
In Kan Yue's courtyard, she was standing in her room, staring blankly at the bright moon that was gradually disappearing into the clouds above the sky. As the clouds continued to gather, the bright moon finally disappeared.
Looking at the gloomy sky, a smile appeared on Kan Yue's face that had not seen a smile in a long time, and he murmured: "Chen Tian, I will come to accompany you tomorrow. I hope you are not far away and I can still find you.
You must be very lonely now!"
When she said this, she quietly looked back at the two maids behind her. Seeing that they didn't respond, she looked at the dark sky and said to herself: "I just hurt my sister. I hope she will be there after I leave."
People should be kind to their sister, after all, she is a general under her and cannot be lost easily."
Then she slowly closed her eyes and recalled every bit of her life, finally settling on the day she met Chen Tian. At that time, he called her Miss Kan Yue. She wished she could hear him call her "Miss Kan Yue" again.
