Chapter 4217 4219 [The Fifth-Rank Sword-Bearing Guard in Front of the Emperor]

Cheng Shifei ran all the way back to Hulong Villa. He ran as fast as he could with worry, anger and regret, but his speed was not slow.

And Xiang Nan didn't need to deliberately legilimnize to know that Cheng Shifei was full of regrets now. As he ran, he was thinking about everything he had with Yun Luo that day.

They used to fight together, go to gambling houses together, go through the test of life and death together... there are so many touching memories.

And it wasn't until this moment that Cheng Shifei realized Yun Luo's position in his heart. He had already fallen in love with this girl, but he never realized it.

Like his father Gu Santong, he didn't realize the importance of Su Xin until he was locked in a prison and suffered from lovesickness for twenty years. He wanted to see her before he died.

Cheng Shifei ran all the way back to the hill outside Hulong Villa and saw that Yun Luo's mourning hall was indeed arranged there. White flowers, white banners, white silk... reveal a solemn and sad atmosphere.

Yun Luo, who used to be lively, cute, and smart, is now lying on the funeral bed, his face pale, and he doesn't know what's going on...

In front of her soul, Haitang was burning paper for her.

Seeing this scene, Cheng Shifei could no longer hold back and was about to rush over, but Haitang immediately stopped him, "Cheng Shifei, Princess Yunluo is so angry with you. Do you still have the nerve to come back? I don't allow you to get close. she."

"Please, let me go over and see her for the last time. After that, you can do whatever you want with me. Please." Cheng Shifei felt even more guilty after hearing what he said, and begged Haitang.

Haitang saw this and just let him go.

Cheng Shifei slowly walked over and came to Yun Luo Ling. He hugged her body and cried bitterly, "Yun Luo, you don't want to die. It was me who harmed you. I am not a human being.

But don't worry, I'll leave with you right away. When we get to the underworld, we will get married again, and I will never run away this time. Please God, give me a chance and let us be together. "

With that said, he was going to kill himself to apologize so that he could follow Yun Luo.

At this moment, someone suddenly grabbed his ear.

Cheng Shifei was stunned for a moment, turned around and screamed in fright, "Ah!!! It's a fake corpse!!"

It turned out that Yun Luo, who had been ignorant just now, actually opened his eyes and grabbed his ears with his hands.

"Hmph, you're the one who cheated. I'm not dead at all." Yun Luo scolded, "How dare you abandon me and escape from marriage. I can't spare you."

"Oh, no, it hurts too much." Cheng Shifei shouted, "So you pretended to be dead and lied to me, causing me to shed so many tears."

"Hmph, seeing as you shed so many tears for me, I will spare you this time." Yun Luo let go of his ear and said, "Next time you dare to abandon me, I will really commit suicide. Let you never see me again."

"No, no, you will always be my good wife, and I will never leave you again." Cheng Shifei also said quickly, and then looked at Haitang, Xiang Nan, Zhang Jinjiu and others, "Oh, I really didn’t expect that you would team up to lie to me, especially you.”

He pointed at Xiang Nan with a look of disbelief on his face.

"I just don't talk much, but that doesn't mean I don't lie." Xiang Nan said with a slight smile.

He was immediately speechless when he was right or wrong.

…

After this incident, Cheng Shifei and Yun Luo officially married.

But according to the rules, they have to go to Cochin country again to hold a wedding.

Shenhou is a good friend of the King of Cochin, and the King of Cochin has promised to raise his son as an adopted son, so there is no problem in holding the wedding in Cochin.

Cheng Shifei just couldn't get used to the restricted life in the palace, so this gave him an excuse to travel around.

He just took the opportunity to return to Cochin to get married, and he and Yun Luo were proud of each other.

After this incident, the emperor also realized that Cao Zhengchun was too powerful in the palace.

For example, when Cao Zhengchun knew that someone was going to enter the palace to steal Tianshan Snow Lotus, he immediately dispatched a large number of Dongchang guards into the palace. Even when the emperor was taking a bath in Yude Pool, Cao Zhengchun dared to break in and conduct a search.

Another example is that when Princess Yunluo went out to find out what was wrong, she was almost killed by the Dongchang people and was almost killed by Iron Claw Flying Eagle, Wudu, Thousand-faced Man and others.

For example, Cao Zhengchun was also quite afraid of the marriage between Yun Luo and Cheng Shifei, so he got involved in it and tried to mess up the marriage...

All these things showed that Cao Zhengchun no longer took the emperor seriously, so he repeatedly made moves to provoke the imperial power.

If he doesn't stay more vigilant, I'm afraid that one day, Cao Zhengchun will send someone to assassinate him and establish a new king.

When the time comes, if he holds the emperor hostage and orders the princes, even Hulong Villa may not dare to resist.

To put it bluntly, even if Hulong Villa killed Cao Zhengchun and avenged him, he would already be dead by then. It meant nothing to him.

Therefore, the emperor had to consider his own safety, so he summoned Xiang Nan as a fifth-level sword-bearing guard.

It turns out that the emperor is not a foolish king. He only relies on the internal fighting between Cao Zhengchun and Zhu Wu to maintain balance. In private, he also supports a group of his own people.

For example, Eunuch Sun, who first acquired Cheng Shifei into the palace, was the emperor's own person. Although he and Cao Zhengchun were both eunuchs, they didn't get along with each other.

The last time Xiang Nan stole the Tianshan Snow Lotus, he had fought against Cao Zhengchun. Although he was eventually repelled by Cao Zhengchun, he at least proved to have the power to hit him.

This is what the emperor values ​​most.

He didn't need Xiang Nan to defeat Cao Zhengchun, he just needed Xiang Nan to be able to hold Cao Zhengchun off. He could make Cao Zhengchun fearful at ordinary times, and be able to withstand an attack at critical moments to create a chance for the emperor to escape.

Xiang Nan also understood the emperor's mentality and did not refuse it.

However, he would not be loyal to anyone.

Xiang Nan, who had been an emperor himself, was completely disenchanted with the high and mighty monarch.

...

Time passed in a flash, two months passed, and it was the New Year in a blink of an eye.

Duan Tianya sent a pigeon back to Hulong Villa, and Piaoxu gave birth to a son safely, named Lang'er.

Because Shen Hou had previously said that he would give Duan Tianya's son the surname Zhu, the child was named Zhu Lang, which was a festive name.

Upon learning that his adopted son had a son, Shen Hou was also very happy and sent people to give him many gifts.

Xiang Nan knew that although the four secret agents of Tiandi Xuanhuang were all tools under Shen Hou, among the four tools, Shen Hou admired Duan Tianya the most.

On the one hand, this person valued love and righteousness, which was very similar to him in some aspects; on the other hand, Duan Tianya was the first person he trained and he devoted the most effort to him.

Therefore, Shen Hou was really happy that Duan Tianya had a child.

Of course, this kind of happiness is also conditional and limited.

The condition is Duan Tianya's loyalty to him, and the limitation is Duan Tianya's value to him.

If one day, Duan Tianya is no longer loyal to him, or the value of his sacrifice is greater than the value of his existence, Shenhou will kill him without hesitation.
