Chapter 372

Nie Zhan also had the same conversation with her in his previous life.

Even if he was imprisoned in the sky prison by Li Rui in the end, when Lu Wan went to see him for the last time, he did not give up. He kept saying that he would take her out of the palace and avenge her by killing Li Rui...

But at that time, the Jin Emperor was dying of illness. As the prince, Li Rui held the entire Jin Dynasty in his hands. Who could escape from his grasp?

Later, she heard that before he was tortured, he did not ask Li Rui for mercy for herself, but knelt down to Li Rui and begged him over and over to let her and the child in her belly go.

But he didn't know that the more he begged for her mercy, the more Li Rui hated him.

Not only did she hate him, but she also hated the child in her belly.

So, while his body was still falling apart in the execution ground, Li Rui took the red flowers, pinched her neck, and drank it with his own hands...

Memories of the past came to mind again, and Lu Wan's heart was filled with pain and suffocation.

In the dim light, Nie Zhan's face was vague and unreal, just like the way she saw him in the prison on the last night.

In Lu Wan's heart, a trace of compassion arose for this stubborn man.

In fact, he and she were both victims of Li Rui in the previous life.

His mistake was that he fell in love with her. In the end, Li Rui used her as bait and worked for him wholeheartedly. In the end, the rabbit died and the dog died. When Li Rui successfully climbed to the top, he was the first person to deal with him ruthlessly...

"General, I have something to say... I don't know whether I should say it or not."

Nie Zhan said: "You say."

Lu Wan held back the bitterness in her chest and said slowly: "When I was in Yanzhou, I once saw a kind of falcon eagle in the desert. It flew very high and far, and its target of catching prey was also very precise..."

"Because the desert is vast and everything in the world is visible, the falcon can fly freely and become the overlord of the desert as it pleases."

"Have you ever seen an eagle like this, General?"

Nie Zhan muttered: "I've seen it before!"

Lu Wan said: "The general feels that if the falcon eagle comes to the Central Plains, or comes to this capital, there will be high-rise buildings everywhere, heavy leaves, and predators hiding in the dark. The general feels that

Can the falcon still be the overlord?"

Nie Zhan understood the meaning of her words, his eyes were cold and he said nothing.

"I think the general is like the falcon. The northwest is your home field. The general can display his talents and abilities there instead of living here and being forced to get involved in these intrigues."

He has a rough and upright temperament, and has the ability to deal with war, but he has no ability to deal with the intrigues and intrigues of fighting for power and gain.

He was not cunning enough and was involved in Li Rui's party. If he never looked back in this life, he was destined to follow the same path in his previous life.

Nie Zhan's eyes trembled slightly, "Do you want me to leave the city or leave King Rui's party?"

Lu Wan said calmly: "It's both. King Rui is not a sage. If the general follows him, he may not end well. It's better to cherish the achievements you have made and live your own life."

Nie Zhan said: "I came to the capital just to find you. If you are willing to follow me, I will listen to you immediately and return to the northwest, back to Yanzhou."

Lu Wan shook his head gently, stood up and said, "I have said this, and my mind will not change. It's very late. General, please come back!"

Nie Zhan sat still without moving.

Lu Wan turned around and walked towards the door. Before she finally left, she turned back and said, "I can only pretend that the general has not been here before tonight."

"If there is a next time, I will not be afraid of being found out. When the time comes to make trouble in front of the emperor, the general, as the commander of the imperial army, broke into the prince's palace at night. He knew the law and broke the law. I'm afraid the crime will be increased!"

Nie Zhan looked slightly shaken and wanted to say something else, but Lu Wan had left quickly without a trace of nostalgia...

After leaving the hall, Lu Wan was surprised to realize that a layer of cold sweat had formed on his back.

Nie Zhan was stubborn and daring. In his previous life, even if he knew she was the queen, he still dared to ask Li Rui for someone.

It is extremely difficult to control such a person. Lu Wan was very afraid that he would just get into trouble with her regardless of her, or even belittle her, so he kept going from beginning to end.

Finally, she was extremely nervous.

Fortunately, this time he was calm and willing to sit down and talk.

When Lu Wan returned to the room, Lan Cao quietly reported: "Girl, he's gone..."

Lu Wan nodded, feeling relieved.

After calming down, she carefully recalled what they had just talked about, and suddenly realized that Nie Zhan in this life seemed to be different from the previous one. He was still stubborn, but not as impulsive and arrogant as in the previous life. .

That's fine, I hope he can take what she just said into his heart and stop following the same path of his previous life...

After not sleeping all night, Lu Wan's eyelids kept twitching when he woke up the next day.

She had heard someone say that bad things would happen if her eyelids twitched, and she couldn't help but worry about Li Yi.

Six or seven days have passed, and apart from meeting him once that night, there has been no news about him.

Lu Wan was worried and waited for Lu Chengyu to come back from the office and ask him for news about Li Yi.

Lu Chengyu said: "After he came back from my place that night, the wound on His Highness's chest collapsed again. When the emperor found out, he took him back to the palace to recuperate, so he has been locked up in the palace for these few days. Don't worry if I can't come to see you."

Hearing this, Lu Wan felt relieved...

Soon, the day came for the wedding banquet organized by the Zhenguo Palace. This time, the eldest princess was not stingy and held a grand banquet, entertaining almost all the prominent people in Beijing/city.

Since morning, Ah Xi has been dressed up, sitting obediently next to the eldest princess, and greeting the guests who came.

Rewards were also sent from the palace, and with Emperor Jin taking the lead, concubines Lan Guifei, Rong Guifei and other harem concubines also carried the rewards to the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion like a stream of water.

The bustling scenery of the Zhenguo Palace is just like the grand occasion of the eldest princess’s seventieth birthday...

The guests had almost arrived, and Lu Wan had been busy since morning. It was only at this moment that he stopped for a sip of tea.

The sound of firecrackers rang out at the door again, and the servants came to report that it was Taifu Shi who came with his family for the banquet.

The male guests were received by Lu Jizhong and Lu Chengyu, while the female family members were led by Ye Shi, Lu Wan and Lu Youning.

The banquet hadn't started yet, so Mrs. Ye first invited Mrs. Shi to sit in the Nuan Pavilion and talk to the eldest princess. The juniors gathered in the small flower hall outside the Nuan Pavilion to rest.

But when Shi Jing arrived outside the flower hall, she didn't go in. She stopped and looked at Lu Wan and said, "Sister Lu, can I have a few words with you alone?"

When Lu Wan saw her serious expression, as if she had something very important to say to her, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart and said, "In that case, Miss Smith, please come with me."

Lu Wan took her to the side hall on the other side. Shi Jing looked at the people coming and going and said calmly: "This place is not clean enough. Can Sister Lu find a quiet place to talk without being disturbed?"

Seeing her being so cautious, Lu Wan became nervous.

After thinking about it, she had no choice but to take Shi Jingyi back to her Qinghuai Pavilion.
