Tang Ning felt the strength between his fingers and couldn't help but return the handshake to Xiao Yan. She turned her head and smiled at him before saying to Yue Jian and the others
"You are all seriously injured. Go and heal your wounds first. Don't delay your recovery. My brother and the others are here with you."
Yuejian and Tianqing were both seriously injured in the previous fight, and they were a little dizzy due to excessive bleeding.
After being comforted by Tang Ning and seeing that the governor also asked them to go down first, the two of them retreated.
After everyone left, Xiao Yan turned to Jin Yun and said, "Go get Doctor Wang to come and check on them, and also check on the other injured people. Count the people who died in the mansion tonight, give those who deserve a lavish burial, give their families more compensation, and settle them down."
Not everyone who stayed in the Xiao family was Xiao Yan's confidant. Many of those in the outer courtyard were promoted from the Privy Council and the Black Armor Guards. These people were not like the secret guards trained by Xiao Yan who were alone. Many of them had parents, relatives, wives, and children.
Although Xiao Yan was strict with his subordinates, he was also generous, so many people were willing to risk their lives for him.
Jinyun nodded: "Don't worry, Lord Governor, I will make arrangements."
Xiao Yan looked at Di Tao who had been standing aside and said, "Wait outside for a while, and come into the palace with me later."
"Is this time going into the palace?"
Di Tao held his spear in his arms, wondering, "Something happened in your house tonight, and so many people died. I'm afraid those people in the court have guessed that you are not in the capital. If I follow you into the palace at this time, won't anyone be suspicious?"
Xiao Yan said indifferently: "So what if they doubt me? I have never left the capital."
Di Tao: “…”
Xiao Yan: "Just remember what I told you, don't worry about anything else. As for those people in the court, I will deal with them myself."
"All right."
Di Tao shrugged. Anyway, his father told him to listen to Xiao Yan in everything after he came to Beijing.
He was originally a young man who admired those who were stronger than him. He had been saved by Xiao Yan before, and later he went to meet the people of Longting Guard, and even on the way back to Beijing, he had witnessed Xiao Yan's methods. He thought he didn't have that kind of brains, so he just did what Xiao Yan said.
"Then Uncle Xiao, I'll wait for you outside."
The word "Uncle Xiao" made Jinyun fall silent, and Tang Ning widened his eyes. However, Xiao Yan said "hmm" calmly and waved his hand to let people go out.
When Jinyun led Di Tao out of Heli Hall, people were coming and going outside to clean up the blood on the ground. Seeing Jinyun trying to leave, Di Tao quickly grabbed him and said, "Hey, you..."
"Jinyun."
"Oh, yes, Jinyun." Di Tao stood in front of the door and leaned against Jinyun quietly: "Who is that young lady inside? Isn't my uncle that…? Why is he so close to her?"
"Your uncle is what?"
“That…” Di Tao blinked.
Seeing Jinyun frowning and looking at him as if he didn't understand, Di Tao looked at his lower body. Jinyun subconsciously closed his legs and his face turned dark.
Di Tao leaned close to him and whispered, "When we were in the northwest, my uncle told me that he had a wife in order to hide his identity. He acted very convincingly and even said that his wife had written him a letter. I believed him with such an amorous look on my face..."
"The Governor has a wife."
"Really?!"
Di Tao almost bit his tongue.
Jinyun said calmly, "Princess Xiangning and the governor are in love with each other and have been through thick and thin together. Although they have not yet married, she is the mistress of my governor. The young general has just met her. The governor and the princess have a very good relationship."
He saluted towards Di Tao and said, "Young General, do you have anything else to say? If not, I will take my leave. There is a mess in the mansion and I have to go and deal with it first."
Di Tao said numbly: "No more..."
Jinyun turned and left, leaving Di Tao standing alone in the corridor, disheveled in the wind.
Isn't his uncle a eunuch? Isn't that lady just a cover?!
His uncle actually had a lover, and the young girl with stunning appearance was actually his aunt? !
Di Tao opened his mouth and wanted to curse "beast", but swallowed it back when it came to his lips. The little girl had been very affectionate when she hugged his uncle just now.
Di Tao held his spear and glanced at the closed door. Could it be that true love overcame the imperfection? The young aunt was so deeply in love with Uncle Xiao that she was willing to do anything to transcend the opinions of the secular world? His face was moved. It turned out that what was written in the storybooks were not all false.
Xue Ru had scraped her arm earlier and had just come out from the side to apply medicine. When she walked to the corridor, she saw a tall young man standing there with a complicated expression.
Seeing him holding the spear, his face looked confused, moved, and then grinning foolishly.
Xue Ru silently turned around and walked away.
Her sister told her not to play with fools.
…
After everyone had left Yueli Terrace, the surroundings became extremely quiet. There was a faint sound of waves coming from the lake outside, and Tang Ning looked up.
"Brother..."
Without waiting for anything to say, Xiao Yan reached out and hugged the person in his arms.
Tang Ning subconsciously held his waist with both hands and pressed his cheek against his broad and strong chest. His heartbeat was violent in his ears and he could faintly smell the lingering blood on his body.
It was clearly a smell that should have frightened people, but the arms around her and his hot breath made her feel at ease. Tang Ning tilted her head back to endure the sudden kiss. When he gently pressed the back of her head, she felt his other hand tightly gripping her waist.
Her breathing became rapid, and the slightly cool night breeze was also tinged with heat. The breath in her throat was thick, and Tang Ning could not help but open her mouth slightly to catch her breath, but she was taken advantage of. The tongue that suddenly flowed into her mouth hooked her lightly, as if to swallow her up, leaving her like a driftwood and could only cling to him with all her strength.
The person in his arms smelled so sweet that it made him unable to resist being infatuated with her. It was not until he felt that Tang Ning was almost out of breath that Xiao Yan let go of her after taking a breath.
The little girl's body was extremely soft, and she collapsed in his arms like water. The corners of her eyes were faintly rosy, and there was a layer of passionate light in her eyes. Her fair and pretty face was stained pink, and her bright red lips were stained by water stains. When she opened her eyes slightly to breathe, she had a breathtaking beauty.
Xiao Yan's throat rolled over, and he panted softly while hugging the person tightly: "My little Haitang is becoming more and more attractive."
Tang Ning's eyelashes trembled slightly, and when her eyes came back to her senses, she was shy and stretched out her hand to gently touch him: "Brother, you look good too."
After a pause, she reached out and hugged his neck and whispered, "I miss you, brother."
Xiao Yan's heart beat violently as he listened to the soft words in her ears. He lowered his head and looked at her shy but unavoidable eyes. He couldn't help but hug her and laugh out loud.
This is his little girl.
When it comes to feelings, being frank is cute.
Holding the person in his arms, he sat on the chaise longue, placing the person on his lap, and Xiao Yan pecked the corner of her eye lightly.
"I miss you, too. Day and night."
His lips brushed lightly under her eyes, and then Xiao Yan whispered, "I should have returned to Beijing a long time ago, but I found a good opportunity when I went to the northwest this time, and I delayed it for so long in order to solve the problem once and for all. Xiao Haitang has worked hard to support me in Beijing, and also to deal with those people with ulterior motives."
Tang Ning listened to his words and shook his head: "Brother, you have already made arrangements before leaving Beijing. I am just following your arrangements. But who was that person just now, and why did he call you uncle?"
The man looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old, and Xiao Yan was not much older than him.
Xiao Yan chuckled: "His name is Di Tao, and he is the son of Di Shuangcheng, the commander of the Zhen'an Army."
Tang Ning opened his eyes wide: "Is he the person that my brother wants to save on the way to the northwest?"=====================
