Nangong Yuan sat in Yuehui Pavilion for a long time and only returned home at almost midnight.

She often runs around and her family never cares about her.

This may be because she and Nangong Jin loved to play when they were young, and their parents were very busy at that time and naturally could not take care of them.

After a long time, everyone seemed to have gotten used to this situation.

"Miss, everything is almost done. Now we are just waiting for news."

Nangong Yuan nodded, got out of the car and went back to the house.

"By the way, is there anything else?"

Tao Zhu thought about it and shook her head: "Not at the moment, what's wrong Miss?"

She didn't say anything, her profile immersed in the night, looking somewhat inhumanly delicate.

"Let's arrange it in a few days. I'll have a simple meal with them, and I have something else to talk about."

"Yes, everyone is waiting for you to come over."

The secret guards were in awe and admired Nangong Yuan, not only because she gave them a way to survive.

That’s also because...she is very powerful.

People like Nangong Yuan will be loved and liked no matter what they do.

"it is good."

She nodded slightly, her expression unclear.

Tao Zhu felt a little strange and thought that she was becoming increasingly difficult to understand.

In the past, the young lady did not show her emotions on her face, but she was very easy to get along with most of the time.

Why does she feel that she is increasingly being oppressed by those in a higher position? She often feels this feeling from those princes and nobles.

········

Time passed quickly and the banquet arranged by Tao Zhu began soon.

Nangong Yuan was present in person and everyone was very happy.

"Hello, Master."

"Well, everyone, sit down. Have you received the reward money from the past few days?"

Shu Lian, who was closest to her, nodded: "Master, your kindness will be unforgettable to me."

"It's good that you got it. I'm busy these days and don't have time to come and see you. Let's talk about it after it's over."

"Master is busy, don't worry, we will train ourselves."

Nangong Yuan smiled.

She didn't wear women's clothes today, but a very stylish and neat outfit.

The tight sleeves make her look very sharp, and the high ponytail reveals her youthful spirit.

She is always like this, changing her temperament very naturally and never makes people feel weird.

"I brought all of you back here. I am very pleased to see you grow step by step to where you are now. From now on, we will work together to defend you from the enemy. Can you do it?"

The others knelt on one knee in unison: "We will protect our master even if it means death."

"In that case, let's drink together."

Everyone picked up their glasses and drank them all.

Nangong Yuan also wants to give this group of people a warning today.

Although they seemed very respectful to her, she was clear about rewards and punishments, and was even more so when it came to managing her subordinates.

"Master, this is a gift we bought for you with our money."

Nangong Yuan turned her head away in surprise, with a somewhat subtle expression.

"This is a decision I made privately. I hope the master won't blame me."

Hearing this, Nangong Yuan said in a friendly tone: "No problem, bring it over and let me have a look."

She opened the box and started laughing.

There is a jade pendant in the box.

But the jade was jet black in color, with a beautiful mandala flower carved on it and sharp daggers surrounding it, which was incredibly beautiful.

Nangong Yuan said: "Not bad, it looks good."

"As long as the master likes it."

She put the things away and her expression softened.

"What I do is always very dangerous. If you follow me, you may die or live."

"It was the master who gave us a life. If it weren't for the master, we would have rotted in some mud ditch and no one would know. Now, even if we return this life to the master again, it is what we should do."

Nangong Yuan was very satisfied with this.

"Okay, not bad."

The secret guard she wanted was loyal and a strong helper who could help her die.

In this way, many things can be solved more smoothly.

Being in this position, she has to do many things that others can't imagine.

"I will go through fire and water for my master."

Before, there were many people in this group who couldn't even read, but now they can speak elegantly.

Nangong Yuan was very satisfied and asked someone to give them more guidance in the future.

She felt inexplicably anxious and wanted them to grow up quickly and be able to take charge of their own affairs.

Lacking strong support, she sometimes inevitably becomes restless and irritable, but fortunately Nangong Yuan can still keep her composure.

"After the New Year, I will have an assessment waiting for you. If you pass, you can be by my side in advance. If you fail, you can only withdraw your resources and retreat behind me."

The young man next to him was tall and had a calm look in his eyes: "Master, don't worry, I will never let you down."

After training them for so long, it is time for Nangong Yuan to give them some opportunities to exercise.

It is easier to improve strength in actual combat, so Nangong Yuan thought about it for a long time and decided to let them come early.

These days she felt a vague sense of danger around her, which meant that Nangong Yuan was no longer the unknown little girl.

Once their father and brother left, they faced more invisible dangers and temptations.

Nangong Yuan needs manpower.

"Okay, then I'll wait and see."

She drank the wine in one gulp, her expression unchanged.

After all, she was here, and the people below were both in awe and admiration of her, so they dared not relax.

Seeing this, Nangong Yuan said a few words, then got up and left.

Tao Zhu told them to play by themselves and turned around to put clothes on her.

"Miss, are you still determined to bring them here in advance?"

Nangong Yuan looked at the broken snow falling from the sky and said, "How can we grow without bleeding? What's more, we don't have much time."

Everything seemed very peaceful and tranquil.

But when a real fight breaks out on the border and the situation becomes uncontrollable, their situation will become very dangerous.

Everything Nangong Yuan is doing now is to make herself safer when the time comes.

Besides, Mrs. Shen has no ability to protect herself. Once there is news from the border, will she still be alive?

"Miss, it's time."

Nangong Yuan sighed: "I don't know why, but I always feel uneasy."

"Are you too tired recently? Miss, you should have a good rest."

Hearing this, Nangong Yuan said, "I'm fine, but I feel like a storm is about to come in Kyoto."

There is an eerie calm before the storm.

But Nangong Yuan could keenly perceive this danger.

She then made preparations in advance, hoping to be foolproof.

"Miss, what you said makes sense. There have indeed been a lot of things going on in the court recently."

The duties assigned before the New Year have been completed, and once New Year's Day is over, it will be time for various places to compete for interests.

That's dangerous.

But they couldn't stop it, they could only try their best to solve it.

"Let's go, it's late at night."

Nangong Yuan tightened her cloak, and the two of them walked across the corridor back to the house.

That night, some were happy and some were sad.
