Chapter 488: Swallow, never give up (Part 1)
The frontline battle situation changed suddenly, and this news was soon sent back to the capital. The Emperor’s good mood due to the opening of the bank and downfall of the Zhang Family’s influence disappeared in an instant.
“The south, this south, they inexplicable sent their princess to the east, originally, to confuse us.” The Emperor was so angry that he immediately ordered the palace guards to surround the Lingyun Courtyard, where Nannuo Yao lived.
Nannuo Yao has just been cured, but she hasn’t had a chance to be happy, she encountered another problem. She was so scared that her face turned pale when she asked what happened.
Nannuo Yao was not stupid. She knew that the war between the East and North haven’t ended yet. The East cannot afford to offend her, or the Southern Country behind her. This situation was too strange.
The palace guards didn’t receive an order to conceal things to Princess Nannuo Yao. So when Nannuo Yao asked, the palace guard replied: “The Southern Country sent elephant soldiers to assist the Northern Country. Princess, you better behave yourself.”
Obviously, when the Southern Country sent troops to help the Northern Country this time, they already gave up Nannuo Yao. Or perhaps, she was abandoned since the beginning. They sent her to the East just to make the emperor think that they will not intervene in the war. After all, they sent a princess whom the South Emperor loved.
No need to question, this so-called beloved princess by the emperor was nothing but an abandoned child. The Southern Country sent her to East to collect intelligence, and then turned their sleeve and sent troops to help the Northern Country to attack the East.
“This is not possible. How could he do this? How could he leave me alone?” Nannuo Yao almost became crazy when she heard the news: “I don’t believe this. I want to see the emperor. No, no, I want to go back, I want to go back to the south. I want to ask what’s going on here.”
Her Imperial Father just sent a letter a moment ago, asking her to find a way to kill Xiao Wangfei as soon as possible. And also, cause a dispute between the Emperor and Xiao Tianyao. But now, all of a sudden, he sent troops and ignore her life and death?
“Go back to the south? Princess Nannuo Yao, are you kidding me?” When the palace guard saw Nannuo Yao clamoring to go back to the south, he was disappointed with her.
Even until now, she still can’t clearly see the situation, she still couldn’t understand the reality. No wonder the south abandoned her.
“No, no… how can imperial father and imperial brother not want me?” Nannuo Yao fell on the ground and clenched her fists tightly. Her nails embedded in her flesh, but she didn’t feel pain at all.
At this time, her heart was ten thousand times more painful.
An abandoned child, she changed from a highly respected princess to an abandoned child?
In this war, if the North and South win, what would happen to her?
“No… No, Imperial father will not do this to me.” Nannuo Yao cried on the ground. The more she thought of it, the more she felt terrified.
The maidservant next to Nannuo Yao, when she saw her like this, she hurriedly came forward and hugged her: “Princess, don’t be like this. You have to believe in the emperor. The emperor will not give you up. Soon, you will go back.”
“I can’t go back, I can’t go back.” Nannuo Yao covered her face with her hands and wept bitterly.
In this war… … between the two countries and her country, she can’t think of a solution at all. She can only watch herself become an abandoned child and fell at the mercy of the East.
Although the emperor sent palace guards to watch Nannuo Yao, he didn’t punish her. He only restricted her freedom and prevented her from leaving the East Country.
Of course, Ji Fengyu, who came with Nannuo Yao, was also not in a good situation. Although the Western Country hasn’t made a move this time, who can guarantee that they will not send troops to assist the North?
Just in case, the emperor sent someone to shut down Ji Fengyu, but the treatment was dozens of times much better than Nannuo Yao. With the palace guards accompanying him, Ji Fengyu was still free to go out.
