On a mountain behind the palace, in a hidden cave, crystal dew condenses on the stone wall. Because it is far away from the outside world, the temperature is constant all year round. As soon as you enter, you feel cold and chilly.

A huge monolithic sarcophagus lies quietly in the center. Because it is made of extremely hard steel rock, the erosion of water droplets does not cause any damage to it, but the erosion makes it extremely smooth.

"Nuan Zhi..." With an affectionate sigh, Lan Nianan reached out and touched the coffin body.

Three years ago, when he returned to the Prince's Mansion after the morning dynasty, the only thing that greeted him was this cold coffin. According to Forsythia's last words of Nuan Zhi, all the sarcophagi were sealed, and the body was filled with long-lasting spices.

To keep her appearance unchanged for thousands of years, she wants to lie quietly inside without being disturbed by anyone.

Therefore, Lan Nian'an has never doubted whether An Nuanzhi was lying in this coffin. Recently, he missed his wife so much that he came to the cave frequently and visited her frequently. He told her what was in his heart and expressed his longing for her.

He confided in her that the reason why he had managed the country so hard for three consecutive years was because of "her" company. Without "her", he would have collapsed long ago.

"Nuan Zhi, Nuan Zhi..." He called out twice in a low voice. He really longed to see her face again, even if it was just one glimpse...

Lan Nian'an knows Nuan Zhi Xijing, and he respects her choice, but he has endured it for three years. Can he be allowed to be willful and domineering this time? He just wants to see her, without any harm...

After looking at the sarcophagus again, Lan Nian'an murmured, "Nuan Zhi, I'm sorry, I'm afraid I have to break my promise, but I must open the coffin to see you, because I am so lonely and I miss you so much!"

With Lan Nian'an's profound internal strength, although this was a sarcophagus made of steel rock, it was nothing more than a thin egg in his hands. After just three or four touches, he saw that the top of the sarcophagus was slightly loose.

The original cast iron plate cracked, and a small gap appeared.

As the gap widened, Lan Nian'an's hope grew bigger and bigger. He thought that he would finally be able to see that alluring and perfect face that he missed day and night. His heartbeat accelerated little by little. This kind of excitement and excitement

The feeling of excitement was amazing, but when he saw it inside, his expression instantly froze, because what greeted him was that the sarcophagus was empty, with nothing!!!

Lan Nian'an's body feels like it has been struck by lightning. Just imagine, the lover you have secretly confided in for three years is just an empty sarcophagus in the end. You have carefully guarded the feelings and thoughts for three years, but the ending is just a naked deception.

What does it feel like in your heart, anger, unwillingness, and even nausea?

Lan Nian'an's eyes gradually turned cold. He changed from his previous deep and tender expression. With a wave of his hand, the sarcophagus was shattered. The cave shook, rocks fell, and it was a mess...

Back at the palace, Lan Nianan's aura was terrifying. He hated being deceived the most, but he was deceived one after another, and it was the same woman. He would never give up easily this time!

Lan Nian'an ordered harshly, "Ask the general and his wife to come see me!"

"Yes." When the little eunuch saw Lan Nian'an with a scary face, he thought to himself what was going on. He didn't dare to delay at all. He didn't even dare to sit in the sedan chair and ran to the general's mansion on foot.

Not long after, Bai Zhao and Forsythia arrived. At this time, Forsythia had been married to Bai Zhao for two and a half years and had just given birth to a daughter. The daughter was named Princess Mingqiao by Lan Nian'an, and she had also been promoted to Princess Mingqiao.

Madam Gaoming.

Because she had just given birth, Forsythia's body was still a little weak. She was helped in by Bai Zhao. Looking at her carefully, the originally blushing girl's face had become calm and mature like a young woman's. The girl had completely transformed.

Becoming a woman, becoming a divine mother.

As soon as Forsythia came in, she was met with a look as terrifying as black iron that had been frozen for thousands of years. Her body slowed down unsteadily. Why was Lan Nian'an so scary today? Bai Zhao also noticed it. He secretly shook his wife's hand, like

Then he said, "Don't be afraid of me."

Unexpectedly, as soon as Forsythia and Bai Zhao finished the ceremony, they heard Lan Nian'an's cold voice...

"Come here, drag General Bai's wife down and beat her severely!"

Bai Zhao and Lian Qiao were both frightened when they heard this. None of them understood what was happening, especially Bai Zhao, who knelt down on the ground, hoping that Lan Nian would let his most beloved woman go.

"Prince, why do you want to beat my wife so severely? If my wife does anything wrong, I will punish her on behalf of the emperor! But the emperor is merciful because my wife just gave birth to a little princess for his subordinate."

"Ask her about the good things she did!" Lan Nianan threw a fragment of the sarcophagus on the ground. When Forsythia saw the fragment, her face turned miserable because she finally understood why Lan Nian'an was angry.

Yes, she hurriedly knelt down and said.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. I didn't mean to deceive the prince!"

Lan Nian'an narrowed her cold eyes and said coldly, "That means this is all An Nuanzhi's idea? Tell me! Where is she now?"

Bai Zhao was confused when he heard this. Hasn't their princess been dead for three years? Why would Lan Nianan still torture Forsythia like this? With Bai Zhao's intelligence, it was not difficult for him to guess, could it be that the

Sudden death in bed was just a little trick between the Crown Princess and Forsythia? Bai Zhao stared at his wife in confusion, hoping to get the answer from her face, but he didn't expect Forsythia to keep shaking her head, she said.

"Back to the emperor, I don't know where my concubine is. The empress just said that the emperor should not miss her, don't love her, and don't look for her. She wants to find her own life, but not with the emperor."

The last sentence pierced Lan Nian'an's heart like a sharp sword. She actually said that she wanted to find her own life, and it wasn't a life with him? Does this mean that she betrayed him and their marriage?

Their feelings, and their children?

The knuckles of her fingers were gradually turning white, and the anger in Lan Nian'an's heart burned into a sea. How dare she... betray him! Do you know... that the only fate for those who betray him is death without a burial!

snort!

Therefore, he must find her from all over the world, even if she has turned into a pile of soil, he will still dig three feet into the ground...!

In a border town in Anguo, it is not prosperous, but it is very leisurely, but leisurely is leisurely. Because the area is remote and relatively poor, petty theft, money grabbing, and banditry often occur.

Under the cover of stacked trees, next to a herbal tea shop, everyone was drinking tea quietly. The environment here was good, and the trees next to it made rustling sounds.

An old customer took a sip of tea and frowned, "Boss, why is your tea getting worse and worse, and the price has also gone up. You have to pay three cents for such a small bowl. It's so expensive! It's so expensive!"

The shop owner rubbed his head in embarrassment and said, "There is no way. There are so many robbers now. Even good tea will be robbed by thieves. By then you won't even be able to drink this tea. When I earn enough money,

I closed the shop and went home to take care of myself. When we get old, we can’t stand it anymore, and the world is in chaos, so I can’t continue to work..."

The man heard what the shop owner said was pitiful, so he put down the tea and left without paying.

The shop owner let out a long sigh, oh, what a real person!

In fact, he really wanted to build this herbal tea shop. After all, it was passed down from his ancestors, but he had no funds and no manpower. When the robbers came, he could only let them plunder it. Alas, it was not an option if this continued.

ah!

The shop owner looked at the sky and saw that the sun was setting. It was the time when robbers appeared. He was about to clean up the shop and prepare to close the shop. Unexpectedly, a gorgeous sedan fell down and happened to land at the door of his herbal tea shop.

Not only the shop owner, but also the tea-sipping guests looked towards the sedan.

Everyone's reaction was that their eyes widened in surprise.

I saw the gorgeous silk curtains swinging in the wind, and I could faintly see a man in white sitting inside. His temperament was like an immortal, and his beauty was beyond the realm of mortals. Well, how can I put it... He didn't look like a man, but more like a charming man.

beauty makeup.

Everyone wanted to take a closer look, but the curtain had been opened, and a woman about forty years old came out. She was also wearing gorgeous silk. Although the color was plain and low-key, anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that the price was high.
