C52 Loyalty and sorrow (1/2)

As the date of Emperor Nanyan's birthday approached, the number of guests from other countries also increased.

As the junior family head, Shangguan Wan naturally had to receive many people.

Nangong Yu didn't have the heart to see how hard it was for her to work, but she liked to interact with outsiders, so he didn't stop them.

It was already midnight by the time he returned to the Hall of Scented Fragrance. Nangong Yu still hadn't fallen asleep.

”Why are you so late?”

”There's no other way. The princess of NATO is a difficult person to serve.” Shangguan Wan had an innocent look. That Princess Wu Dan had a cunning personality, she was even more cunning than her own niece.

Nangong Yu pulled her into her embrace and comforted her softly, ”It's been hard on you.”

”It's alright, I'll just try my best to avoid her in the future.” Shangguan Wan saw this very clearly, because she was sleepy and really wanted to have a good night's sleep.

Nangong Yu picked her up and placed her on the bed. Sure enough, as soon as this woman laid on the bed, she quickly fell asleep.

His astute eyes instantly moved onto Rui Xiang.

Ruixiang withdrew, waiting for the emperor's question.

The atmosphere was truly depressing. Nangong Yu took a sip of her Spirit Boosting Tea and asked, ”Who is your master?”

Rui Xiang shook her head.

”Don't say it? ”It's a heart attack.” Nangong Yu's eyes blazed with anger, ”Zhen won't be as easy to talk to as the empress.”

He could treat Shangguan Wan very well, he could even give up everything, but he would only treat Shangguan Wan like this. He would never show mercy to others.

Logically speaking, Luo Chen from the palace was her rival. As her husband, he shouldn't have let her off, but the little Daoist had done a great service to get rid of the demon. Shangguan Wan repeatedly said that he was no match for her, so she let him go.

Otherwise, how could Luo Chen have stayed in the palace until today?

Rui Xiang still shook her head.

She would not say her master's name, because this was her basic duty as a spy. She could not do things that betrayed her trust, even if that person was unforgivable.

This was the case with Fool, and this was also the case with Sadly.

”What a determined girl.” Nangong Yu clapped his hands together. ”I guess even you wouldn't be able to understand what's going on right now, much less understand.”

She should have been sent out as a death soldier. If she did not complete the mission, there would be only death, so nothing she did now would help. She already had the belief that she would die.

Therefore, was there any need to talk about moral common sense and justice and evil for a man who wished to die? That was just playing the lute to a cow.
