Chapter 406

Ning Qiandu was silent for a while after hearing her words, and then said: "Love should be selfish."

"Yes, love is selfish, almost everyone thinks so, and I thought so at the beginning. But in this life, I spent twenty years as his childhood sweetheart, and found that feelings are not as superficial as I imagined."

Lan Shuangning said: "There is no shortage of parents in the world who sacrifice their lives to protect their children. That is selfless love. It is also selfless for lovers to sacrifice their lives to protect their lovers, but this is not the point I want to say.

There are many people who can sacrifice their lives for their lovers, but who can live in the pain of loss and watch their lovers and others happy?"

"I don't quite understand." Ning Qiandu said very calmly.

"For example, you and Ji Mo were in love, but one day you found out that staying with him would only make him suffer, and then you left him, and when you left, you destroyed all the good impressions he had of you, making him extremely disappointed in you, and finally looking for a new lover with peace of mind - have you ever seen this kind of love?"

"No."

"Many people can die for their lovers, they think they are already very selfless, but they can't do this because their love is not great enough." Lan Shuangning said.

"This kind of love... shouldn't exist." Ning Qiandu thought about it and finally said.

"It does exist. In this life, in him and me, he has paid for me like this."

As Lan Shuangning said, her jade fingers touched Ji Mo's face, very gently.

Watching the white jade fingers touching Ji Mo's face, Ning Qiandu felt very uncomfortable, but then she thought that the woman in front of her had feelings for Ji Mo, and the pain she experienced might never be less than her own.

Thinking of this, her heart was relieved a lot.

"You have this kind of heart, I don't think others have it." Ning Qiandu said.

"It's okay, I will persuade them one by one. I don't want any of the four people to spend their whole lives and end up with only heartache and despair." Lan Shuangning said.

Ning Qiandu looked at her and said, "This is a very difficult thing. Maybe you can't complete it in this life."

"It's okay. My life is long. I will always insist. But if any of the three wants to kill Ji Mo, I will definitely kill her without mercy." Lan Shuangning said with a smile.

Ning Qiandu was very surprised by Lan Shuangning's attitude. She could have such a heart, such a feeling of sacrificing herself for the happiness of her lover.

She couldn't help but think of herself again. What about her love for Ji Mo? Can she do that?

She imagined it in her mind and found it was almost impossible.

In the imperial city, a man in a dragon robe sat in the hall and reviewed articles.

The man had a majestic face and his eyebrows were like rocks. The whole hall was filled with the aura of an emperor.

At this time, a white-haired old man walked in respectfully, bowed, and said, "Your Majesty, I'm sorry to bother you."

"It's okay. There aren't many articles. What's the matter with the Imperial Master?" Shang Qitian looked up and put down the article and ink brush in his hand.

"Your Highness, do you think Chufeng Country has been too peaceful recently? General Liao of Yufeng City, the border city of the two countries, told me that they haven't found any enemies for a month, let alone war." The Imperial Master said.

"Since the last report, I have been very concerned about this matter. Although Chufeng and my Yan Teng have a good relationship on the surface, in fact, each of us wants to destroy the other. The border city suddenly stopped fighting. Could it be that something strange happened in the country recently?" Shang Qitian asked.

"Today, Prince Su Jie of the Northern Territory came to my house to tell me something, that is, a huge monster suddenly awakened in the Northern Territory. Could this be related to Chu Feng?"

"Not necessarily. Although the Northern Territory is a relatively backward area in our country, in the distant past, it was a world dominated by monsters. In the end, the masters of the continent joined forces and many heroes died before burying those monsters."

Shang Qitian's majestic face showed a solemn expression, and continued: "But it is only burying the monsters after all. Those who are buried may wake up after all. If the Chu Feng Empire learns from somewhere that a large number of monsters are buried in the Northern Territory of our country, perhaps they will take this opportunity to greatly weaken our national strength. This matter must be prevented. Later, you can send General Lian to lead an army of three million to strengthen the Northern Territory. Domain defense. "

"Yes, Your Highness."

The Imperial Master nodded in response, and then said: "But Your Highness, I think that perhaps the spies of the Chufeng Empire have already infiltrated the Northern Territory, and some may even have infiltrated the Imperial Capital. The Imperial Capital is the head of Yan Teng, how could Chufeng let them go?"

"According to what the Imperial Master said, this matter is a bit of a headache. If they can infiltrate the Imperial Capital, they must have already planted some people in my Imperial Capital, and these people have also obtained a certain status. Finally, they can take over the power of these people with status and enter the Imperial Capital. "

Shang Qitian frowned, and this matter may be a matter of national survival. Once the monsters in the Northern Territory awaken, not only will the entire Northern Territory be completely occupied by monsters, but those monsters will even attack in all directions.

When the Chufeng Empire sends a large army to launch an attack, the Yan Teng Empire will be attacked from both sides and may be completely defeated.

"Your Highness, since only one monster has awakened today, it means that they do not have the ability to awaken all monsters. In other words, if they enter the imperial capital, they will only have one purpose, which is to find out about the sealing method of burying monsters."

The Imperial Preceptor continued: "In this case, they will definitely look for high-ranking officials and nobles to extract information from their mouths. They may also torture and interrogate them, but that will easily expose them. Therefore, I believe that they are likely to use some more conservative methods. Means, such as... a large-scale honey trap."

"Using a woman to get information..." Shang Qitian pondered for a while and said: "National Master, now go and inform all the princes, princes, monarchs and princesses, as long as they are unknown people, no matter what method is used, as long as the other party asks for a hint Regarding the monster in the Northern Territory, we can capture it immediately.”

"Yes, Your Highness."

The Imperial Master still did not leave, and said: "Your Highness, this competition is to select a good match for the princess. I am worried that the Chu Feng Empire will send someone here?"

"The Imperial Master is saying that the Chu Feng Empire will send geniuses to the Central Plains to compete for the first place in the competition, and finally use Xu'er to learn the method of awakening monsters?"

Shang Qitian said: "This matter is not impossible. After all, only members of my royal family and the top ministers of the imperial court know the method of awakening monsters. We have to guard against it. At this time, I leave it to you, the Imperial Master, to take care of it."

"Your Highness, you can rest assured that I will protect the princess without any harm."
