Cang Ri Qing Lan

Helian Yuya chased out of the border of the Kingdom of Jing, and then caught up with the troops of the Kingdom of Jing, pretending to be thieves and intercepting them, but there was no trace of King Jing in the team.

It is really unusual for the extravagant and dissipated Prince Jing to abandon his official career.Thinking of the possibility of Prince Jing successfully returning to the capital, coupled with his eagerness to reunite with Cang Lan, Helian Yuya didn't leave a single life alive.

Passing through the small country of Zhu, he went up the mountain from the other side of the mountain range. After a few days, when he saw Cang Lan's army scattered on the hillside, he knew it was too late.

"General Yi Yan was hit by an avalanche, and His Majesty has yet to find anyone."

Mi Ke's report was very simple and clear,

"A few corpses were found under the ice, all from Linxue."

"How is Cang Lan?"

He Lian Yuya couldn't see any joy or anger on his face, he kept walking, and went straight to Cang Lan's big tent.

With some hesitation in his voice, Mi Ke lowered his answer,

"It seems to be all right..."

Cang Lan seemed to be fine.

In fact, Qingling took good care of him. After the camp was set up, he asked someone to add several layers of felt inside.No matter day or night, there is always a bonfire in the tent, every meal must be hot, the mattress before going to bed is also warmed, and even the clothes are always dried beside the charcoal basin.

"My lord, the army led by Feng Yansheng has arrived."

Xing Ye opened a corner of the tent door and slipped in neatly. A trace of cool air fell with the tent door and quickly disappeared in the warm air.

Cang Lan leaned on the couch without even raising her eyelids, like a luxurious ice sculpture.

Less than half a moment later, the tent door was slammed open again, the cold wind was blowing, and the exuberant bonfire was whistling to one side.

Helian Yuya appeared in front of him.

Cang Lan moved, looked at Helian Yuya for a while, then looked away again, waiting.

'could not find it'

He was waiting for the words, even though he didn't want to hear Kukza sobbing at all... as if Yiyan was really buried underneath.

"How long have you been on the mountain?"

He Lianyu stretched out his hand, as if he wanted to touch Cang Lan's face, but he blocked it halfway.Helian Yuya immediately turned back and grabbed his wrist,

"Come back with me! Stop wasting time here!"

"...It's only a few days."

Cang Lan struggled to get away, leaving a few scratch marks on his wrist, but he ignored it and said with a half-smile,

"I'll go back when he comes back."

"How many days? Are you still awake? It took me seven days to come here from Zhu country! If he can come back, he will soon..."

Helian Yuya grabbed Cang Lan's shoulders, as if trying to pull him up from the couch.

Seeing this, Qingling leaned forward slightly, held back, and shouted in a low voice,

"Helian Yuya! How dare you attack His Majesty!"

"You think he will stay with you all his life, don't you? He is the emperor of the Haoxuan dynasty!"

He Lianyu's teeth were full of anger, and he swept across Xingye and Qingling.

The latter was about to say something, but was cut off coldly by a voice,

"Go and be respectful and don't talk long-winded in front of me."

Cang Lan's words were not loud, but every word was full of murderous intent. He raised his eyes slightly, and the silver eyes glowed with a hard luster, as if a sharp knife tore through the air.

The two who were arguing were choked, this Cang Lan was like a monster stripped of its camouflage, revealing its cruelty and brutality.

Qing Ling froze for a moment, looked down at the marks on Cang Lan's wrist, quickly found a bottle of wine in the tent, and sat down again to treat Cang Lan's wound.

"Sure enough, I can't do it alone..."

He Lianyu whispered something in an almost inaudible manner, and He Lianyu's red eyes seemed to be bleeding, but he smiled and said softly,

"How long have you been up?"

"...I sleep every day."

Of course Cang Lan slept, the time he lay on the couch was the same as usual.

It's just that his brain didn't stop for a moment.

Day and night, he kept deducing the possibility of Yan Yan's return, and then, all the past appeared in his mind,

He remembers them fighting side by side, he remembers their body temperature in the snow, their persistent whispers, their bodies smelling like grass...

He knew that the last corpse he found was four meters below the snow layer, and he knew that there was no possibility of survival beyond this limit...

He remembers the obsession in his blue eyes, he remembers saying that warriors die as wolves and return to their loved ones—

He knew that ten days and eight hours and three quarters had passed since Xue Beng, and even if he found it, it would only be a corpse.

Repeated, staggered, like a cold machine that can never stop, clearly and accurately crushing him time and time again, the gears with sharp blades are constantly turning in his heart, making him want to destroy and obliterate all of them.

This unprecedented emotion dominated him, suffocating and maddening but powerless.

"You know what you're doing, don't you?"

"……I am not sleeply."

However, Cang Lan didn't go crazy, he was still very clear-headed, even if he heard voices like a sledgehammer hitting his head, reason would always tell him what he should do.

It was as if now, he got up and wanted to get out of the big tent, so as not to draw his sword against He Lianyu, just like the general who tried desperately to persuade him to withdraw his troops a few days ago.

Turning around, Xing Ye saw Cang Lan getting up irritably, and hurriedly stepped forward to open the tent door.

Seeing Cang Lan walking past her without looking back, Helian Yuya gave a wry smile, and suddenly said in a low voice,

"You sent people separately to inquire about the news, did you hear back?"

Cang Lan looked at Helian Yuya again, the light from outside overflowed from the bottom of the tent, making the blue under his eyes stand out, and the bloodshot eyes showed his limited patience.

"Ask your men."

Helian Yuya looked at Cang Lan, and stretched out his hand again, but this time, he gently brushed between his brows, and said softly,

"I detained the caravan I encountered, do you know what I found?"

Cang Lan frowned and said impatiently,

"Say it once."

"One of the teams is not a businessman at all. They were sent to cause an avalanche and ambush King Jing."

This is an attempt to disrupt the alliance.

King Linxue, who is fighting Beiling with neighboring countries and enemies, will definitely not like it.

After Helian Yuya finished speaking, he fixedly looked at Cang Lan, clearly waiting for him to make a decision—whether to continue to search for people who are impossible to find here; or to regroup and deal with the enemy.

He didn't have much confidence, but he could only try.

However, Helian Yuya didn't expect that the rivals in love who didn't like each other would join him, so he only heard Qingling slowly say,

"Prime Minister Helian's words are not bad. The Jingxue coalition army was also facilitated by the prince. King Linxue wanted to kill two birds with one stone, help the prince, and let Jingmin fight so as not to endanger Linxue. This person must not be let go."

Cang Lan didn't answer, turned around and prepared to leave the account.

"It turns out that you know what's in your heart, but you still refuse to leave,"

Seeing that the ice in Cang Lan's eyes remained unmoved, Helian Yuya smiled bitterly and said,

"Don't you think that after waiting so hard, the dead will come back?"

Xing Ye and Qing Ling's expressions changed when the word "dead" was spoken.

Those who said that Yan Yan was dead before were all ordered to die!

This was the last sentence Cang Lan didn't want to hear, yet Helian Yuya said it brazenly!

The answer was the sound of the sword clanging, Cang Lan grabbed Xing Ye's hand holding the sword, and went straight to Helian Yuya's chest, blood flowed back along the blood groove on the sword——

"My lord! Don't...!"

One minute earlier, the other party's life would be claimed. Feeling Cang Lan's hand tremble slightly, Xing Ye withdrew his hand forcibly, turned over and knelt down on the ground.

Raising his hand to wipe the bright red, He Lianyu's teeth froze for a moment, then he laughed loudly,

"...you're going to kill me...!"

Yes, if you kill him, you will lose it in the end anyway. It is better to destroy it with your own hands, obliterate all the people who are in your heart, no more worries, maybe no more pain!

Cang Lan remained motionless, but the killing intent kept flashing in her eyes.

That sad laughter was like a saw, tugging at his heart and grinding the strings of his reason.

The violent darkness that had been sleeping for a long time was completely out of control, Cang Lan's silver hair shone brightly, and the shadow cast on the ground was terrifyingly thick.

"My lord! I haven't found anyone yet, that's just in case! It's not a foregone conclusion!"

Qing Ling was stunned, for a long while, Cang Lan made a move, finally came to his senses, stepped forward and hugged her.

He suddenly felt that if Helian Yuya was really allowed to die under Cang Lan's hands, Cang Lan would also disappear forever.

"If the general comes back, you will regret it for the rest of your life!"

It was as if he was fighting with someone, Qing Ling used all his strength, Cang Lan stopped, and after a long time, he said in a hoarse voice,

"let me go,"

"...Order the whole army to pull out the camp...!"

In the fourth year of Huang'an in Da'anli, at the end of summer, Emperor Da'an returned to Beijing in a meeting with the king of Jing. He met an assassin on his way, but found no results. It was rumored that he was entrusted by the prince. King Jing was furious and took back the power of the prince to supervise the country.

In the autumn of the same year, Emperor Dajun personally conquered and went to Beiling City Five.

The city of Beiling King was occupied by Linxue, and the king of Beiling flowed to Chenghui, where he was attacked by the enemy. In less than half a month, the flesh came out and surrendered to Emperor Daxiong, who agreed.

In the spring of the following year, Emperor Daxuan gathered the soldiers of the army and the country, and the soldiers came to Xue.

Except for Huo Jiao who was stationed in Xiaocheng, all the prefects and pastors mobilized all their troops to gather in Yizhou.

Shen Haozhe, who was in Lingzhou, also received this message, he had a vague feeling that something else was hidden, and sent his master to Yizhou, before meeting Cang Lan, he first saw Helian Yuya.

It is impossible to say that it was not a surprise, but Shen Haozhe soon felt that it was not a surprise.Seeing that the other party had dyed black hair, he understood most of it at the moment, and was about to pretend to be ignorant and pass by, but Helian Yuya walked over, stared at him for a while, and said,

"Shen, did Cang Lan sleep with you?"

The attendant who led the way hurriedly retreated to the side, his lowered head almost buried in his chest.

Shen Haozhe's face was livid, he held back his breath, and said,

"Master Right, why don't you care about your own reputation first."

"reputation?"

Helian Yuya snorted coldly, his eyes seemed to be burning with fire, and soon dimmed again, he took out a bag from his sleeve and threw it to Shen Haozhe,

"If he sleeps with you, remember to order this."

The tendons in the hands tightly clenched into the cloth bag were fully revealed, Shen Haozhe's hawk-like eyes locked on Helian Yuya, and after a moment, he said,

"What is this? What do you want to do?"

"Soothe the gods with medicinal fragrance!"

He Lianyu gritted his teeth and touched his chest subconsciously.From the last time, every time Cang Lan sees this wound, she has a strange expression, like fear and pain, as if this is a sign reminding him not to cross the threshold again, and it seems to be a proof that the feelings he gave are irretrievable.

Helian Yuya is definitely a person who will take revenge, but he forgave Cang Lan so easily.

Just because the sword that hurt his heart was a double-edged sword, he really didn't expect that this person would be so stupid.

"...What's wrong, Your Majesty?"

Finally hearing the clue, Shen Haozhe frowned,

"You still don't know? Are you concentrating on military training, or are you deliberately not asking?"

Helian Yuya sneered, not without ridicule,

"The ghost general of Canglan is dead."

"General Yiyan?"

Shen Haozhe's expression changed, and he finally understood the whole story.

"It doesn't matter who it is, as long as Cang Lan can be kept, it's better than handing it over to the dead."

Helian Yuya was extremely unwilling to leave these words.But he really didn't want to. Every time he woke up, he found that the people around him were just lying quietly with their eyes closed, never falling asleep at all.

When Shen Haozhe found out that Cang Lan was not smiling, he was a completely different person. It had been almost two minutes since he entered the hall, and the usual smile never appeared on his face, let alone the inseparable tenderness.

He suddenly understood Helian Yuya's intentions.

"Your Majesty, the villain asked around. At the end of last summer, there was indeed a slave trader from Linxue who sent slaves from the ghost clan to Linxue from the Jing Kingdom."

There was a person lying on the steps of the main hall, with a caged hood, Shen Haozhe couldn't see the face of this person clearly, but felt that the voice was extremely familiar.

Cang Lan sat on a heavy and wide chair in the middle, her brows were carved like a knife, cold and fierce, she was silent for a long time, and only then did a slightly hoarse voice sound,

"Keep looking."

"Yes." The man replied, and looked back at Shen Haozhe, seeing that Cang Lan didn't express anything, he said again,

"Everything is ready at Linxue's side, and we can withdraw from Linxue just waiting for His Majesty's order."

After a pause, seeing that Cang Lan didn't respond anymore, he kowtowed and backed out.

Shen Haozhe had already seen clearly that that person was undoubtedly Yu Donghai, and he suddenly had an answer to the guess in his mind, so he couldn't help but think a lot.

When he came back to his senses, he saw Cang Lan's eyes fixed on him firmly, and what Helian Yuya said before flashed in his mind instantly.

Shen Haozhe was feeling guilty for no reason, seeing Cang Lan stepping down from the throne, making him want to retreat unconsciously.Before he could move his stiff legs, Cang Lan had already come in front of him, wrapping her arms around his chin without saying a word.The moment of the last experience made him understand what the other party wanted to do.

Shen Haozhe stretched out his hand reflexively to push, Cang Lan didn't even think about blocking that hand, covering the other's panicked eyes, and kissed him directly.
