As soon as Tuobo Kun finished speaking, he spat out a mouthful of blood. After this day's torment, the black gold brocade robe on his body was already messy and messy. There was also a faint smell of medicine, and the collar and cuffs seemed to be stained.
Soaked with sweat, the green bamboo pattern on it has become blurry
Cang Yue looked at Tuo Bo Kun in shock and couldn't help but sigh, how could a person as noble and arrogant as the King of Liao have ever been in such a miserable state?
Except for their guards, the master has always been a loner and would never stay alone in a room with other people for more than a quarter of an hour. However, the master actually stayed in a room with Fourth Miss Nalan for more than a quarter of an hour.
eight hours
During this period, Tuobo Kun had not changed his clothes, had not eaten any food, and had not even had time to take a sip of water. Tuobo Kun's devotion to Mu Liang was completely beyond the scope of what Cang Yue and the other guards could accept. But right now
It seems that their master’s contribution to the Fourth Miss Nalan is far from reaching the bottom line. In other words, Wang has no bottom line for the Fourth Miss!
"Did you hear what I said clearly?" Tuobo Kun wiped the blood on his lips with his hand, and as he spoke, he pushed away the handkerchief Cang Yue handed him.
Cang Yue was stunned for a moment, and then said in a deep voice, "Cang Yue heard clearly! I will definitely do what the king ordered." Cang Yue took back her handkerchief, turned around, and drove the carriage away from the academy, but the shock in her heart was far from subsided.
The master's current temperament is really different from before. In the past, the master held most weapons in his hands. He didn't like to touch strangers' things. Even if the back of his hand was brushed by the hem of a stranger's clothes, the master would throw it away after wiping it.
But just now, the master wiped the blood on the corner of his lips with his hand without any awkward expression. The master changed like this... It should be all because of Fourth Miss Nalan!
Cang Yue has just returned from the Snowfield Tribe. She is not as familiar with what happened in the past month as Snow Leopard and others, but she is shocked to realize that except for the cold and domineering aura of the king in front of her at this moment, everything else is absolutely turned upside down.
!
How did the fourth lady of the general's mansion, who was regarded as incompetent by everyone in Northern Liao in the past, bring such a big change to the king?
Cang Yue could never imagine or believe it
In the carriage, Tuo Bokun leaned heavily against the wall of the carriage. All his strength was used up. His whole body seemed to be hollowed out. Whether it was body or spirit, if there was only one spiritual pillar supporting him at this moment,
, that is, after he recovers, he must settle this account with Nalan Muliang!
Slowly closing his pupils, Tuobo Kun let out a long breath, but his whole body did not relax at all. On the contrary, stimulated by her cold and cold eyes just a moment ago, there was no part of his limbs that was not in pain.
That woman... didn't mean to be cold, but she actually fell asleep in that situation... It was really a heavier blow than jumping up and scolding him!
The carriage ran for half an hour and quickly turned into the back door of Prince Liao's Mansion. Cang Yue stopped the carriage and turned around to open the curtain, only to see Tuo Bokun leaning against the wall of the carriage, his brows furrowed, his pupils closed, his face expressionless.
It was dark and dull, with slight traces of purple on the lips. The hands on the knees were hanging weakly. The tall and straight figure in the past was actually slightly bowed forward at this moment. The black gold brocade robe on his body was already visible.
His original color remains the same, just like his current complexion, which is dull and dull.
He leaned his head gently on the Qian screen window, letting the window open a crack, and the cold wind blew in, blowing his black hair away and messing it up, and sticking it messily to his sweaty cheeks.
The stern facial features, after those eight hours of sleepless work, now seem to have lost a lot of weight in one day, and the facial contours are more three-dimensional and clear, and they look even thinner.
Cang Yue frowned and looked at Tuo Bokun like this. She didn't know if he was asleep or unconscious, but she saw that there was a layer of fine beads of sweat on his cheeks. The window of the carriage window was still half open, and his cheeks were like this.
He was blown all the way by the cold wind, but he didn't feel anything
In other words, he wanted to close the window with his hands, but he was exhausted and had no strength at all.
"Master!" Cang Yue shouted, but Tuo Bo Kun didn't respond at all.
Cang Yue's expression changed slightly, and she hurriedly turned around to greet Silver Fox, "Quick! Master is unconscious! Send someone to greet him at the front door to see if the ascetic old man is here! Let him show Master!" Cang Yue said and jumped up.
The carriage carried Tuo Bo Kun down, and Yin Hu also hurried over, holding Tuo Bo Kun on Cang Yue's back, and hurriedly entered the study room in the east courtyard.
At the door of the study, the ascetic old man has been waiting for a long time
Yin Hu and Cang Yue were shocked when they saw the ascetic old man who had appeared at some unknown time. Their carriage was already not slowing down, but this old ascetic, despite his age and walking, was actually faster than them.
How unfathomable is the skill of this ascetic old man?
The ascetic old man raised his head and glanced at the unconscious Tuobo Kun. Without saying a word, he turned around and entered the study.
…
In the next fifteen days, the whole of Bei Liao was not peaceful.
Because there is only one month left for the Liao Emperor's triennial draft ceremony. According to the rules of the dynasty, the harem draft requires neighbors to exchange beauties. Three years ago, when the patriarchs of the Eighteen Tribe Alliance selected their concubines, the Liao Emperor also sent four stunning beauties.
The beauty passed by, and the patriarchs of the Eighteen Tribe Alliance also smiled and accepted them one by one.
Now, as the light of the morning star is about to arrive, the neighboring countries are all ready to take this opportunity to fight for this once-in-a-century light of the morning star.
On the first day of Tuobo Kun's retreat, the chief of the Eighteen Tribe Alliance, a neighboring country in Northern Liao, had already sent a pair of honor guards to set out from the Eighteen Tribes. They could reach Northern Liao in twenty days at the latest, and Persia
Three days ago, an envoy from the country came to Beiliao. After sending a piece of paper and a personal letter, he stayed at the inn and watched what happened.
As for the head of the Bai family, who has taken over the overall situation on behalf of the patriarch of the Snowfield tribe in recent years, he even sent an honor guard to come.
The Emperor of Liao called Tuobo Kun into the palace many times to plan good plans, but he was blocked by Tuobo Kun's guards. It was said that Tuobo Kun was suffering from typhoid fever and could not go out. Even the imperial doctors sent by the Emperor of Liao were turned away by the guards.
The emperor was furious in the palace and summoned a crowd of courtiers to appear, as if he wanted to use the power of everyone to force Tuobo Kun to sacrifice his life.
At the same time, after recuperating in the Royal Academy for fifteen days, Mu Liang officially received an imperial edict from the palace, asking her to return to the General's Mansion.
