Murong Yan hasn't seen Shen Yan for five days.
The man who wears her husband's face but is actually not the husband.
She had lost her appetite and suffered from insomnia these past few days, with Shen Yan's words constantly popping up in her mind.
He said that as long as Fu Jiuli's life was in danger, her husband would wake up.
First of all, she didn't know how credible his words were. Secondly, even if it was true, it would be fine for her to put herself in danger, but how could she let her nephew really fall into danger?
Her husband was extremely intelligent. If she had someone stage a fake assassination, he would have definitely noticed and the plan would have been impossible to succeed. But if she had actually assassinated him...
Her nephew is her sister's only flesh and blood in this world, and she really doesn't want to take the risk of his life.
Furthermore, if the emperor really wakes up, wouldn’t Shen Yan disappear from this world?
It was one thing for her to try to fight for it, but since Shen Yan had taken the initiative, she felt a little uncomfortable. Plus, he had saved her a few days ago... Wouldn't it be ungrateful for her to do so?
But if she knew there was a way for the emperor to come back, but didn't fight for it, how could she accept it?
......
Murong Yan was having a headache thinking about it. Even after she succeeded her sister to the throne and ruled the entire southern border for several years, she had never encountered such a difficult matter.
Just when I was feeling extremely confused, there was suddenly chaos outside the house.
Murong Yan's heart skipped a beat and she quickly walked to the door and opened it.
The head guard, dressed in black, immediately appeared before her and said, "Your Majesty, the Emperor's husband is missing."
Murong Yan's face turned pale instantly, and she stumbled back a step. "What did you say? Who's missing?"
The head of the guards lowered his head and repeated, "Shen Yan is missing."
Murong Yan suddenly pushed him away and stumbled towards the bedroom where Shen Yan had been living these days.
The bedroom door was wide open at this time. There was not much space inside and there was no place for people to hide. It only took a glance to confirm that the room was indeed empty.
Murong Yan lost all her strength in an instant, and her body slid down against the door frame. Her arm was lifted up in time by a strong arm, preventing her from sliding to the ground.
She let the guard leader support her and stood at the door for a while before she spoke calmly, "When did you find out he was missing?"
"Just now, when the maid brought him breakfast, she found that he was no longer in the room. He was still there last night. He must have been kidnapped last night."
Murong Yan's eyes suddenly became sharp.
The leader of the guards immediately knelt down and said, "The guards patrolled last night and found nothing unusual. This is my fault. Your Majesty, please punish me."
Murong Yan was silent for a long time, her face dark and gloomy. "Go find him! If you can't find him within a day, you will commit suicide to atone for your sin."
"Yes!" The guard leader stood up and was about to leave.
But Murong Yan stopped him again. She sighed, "It's not your fault. I didn't notice it last night. The person who kidnapped him must be an expert among experts."
The guard leader's back was stiff, and he didn't say anything.
Murong Yan continued, "If there is still no news after three days, then reveal your identity and go to the palace to ask the Emperor of Beiyue for the person."
"The Emperor of Northern Vietnam will dig up the entire North Vietnam to find my husband, or else don't blame me for going to war in Southern Xinjiang!"
"Yes!" The guard leader took the order and left.
Fortunately, within a day, Murong Yan received news from her nephew that the person was with him.
-
Leaving the palace.
The two men sat opposite each other at the stone table. They stared at each other for a long time, and neither of them spoke first.
After the teapot was empty twice, Fu Jiuli spoke first: "Master?"
The man opposite sighed: "...It's me."
The two were silent again.
Fu Jiuli hesitated when he spoke again: "Master, your body..."
A complicated look flashed across Shen Mu's eyes: "You know everything?"
Fu Jiuli looked at him and nodded.
Shen Mu sighed again: "I have already decided to give this body to him. If he hadn't insisted on assassinating you, I..."
For some reason this time, after sensing that his disciple's life was in danger and forcibly taking action to save his disciple, he actually took direct control of this body.
No matter how hard he tried to fall asleep and return control of his body to Shen Yan, he couldn't do it.
No matter how he secretly called out Shen Yan's name, no one paid any attention to him. It was as if Shen Yan had suddenly disappeared out of thin air...
Fu Jiuli thought for a moment and said, "But he doesn't seem to be trying to kill me this time. It's a very strange feeling, as if..."
Recalling the scene of the battle between the two parties an hour ago, Fu Jiuli frowned: "It's as if he deliberately wanted to lure you out."
Shen Mu was stunned, his eyes filled with astonishment: "What did you say?"
Fu Jiuli: "I'm just guessing. Anyway, now that you've woken up, are you still planning to disappear?"
He was not the kind of person who liked to interfere in other people's decisions, but out of consideration for his mother's sister, he asked one more question.
Shen Mu's eyes flickered a few times, and he smiled slightly and said, "You are now able to stand on your own, and I am relieved. As for this body, I owe him..."
Fu Jiuli raised her eyes and said, "What about what you owe the Queen of Southern Xinjiang? How do you plan to repay her?"
Shen Mu: "What?"
Fu Jiuli raised her eyebrows: "She's here."
Shen Mu followed Fu Jiuli's gaze and saw a beautiful woman who was familiar to him running towards them in a hurry.
He jumped up from the stone bench as if he was scalded by something, turned around and wanted to run.
But the woman shouted, "Stop!"
Shen Mu paused for only a moment before he moved again. His speed was as fast as lightning, and he disappeared in a flash.
When Murong Yan finally ran over, Fu Jiuli was the only one left at the stone table.
Fu Jiuli looked up at her and said, "As you can see, you scared people away."
Murong Yan stared at the direction where the man had just disappeared. After a long silence, she asked, "What is he like now..."
Fu Jiuli: "It's Shen Mu, your imperial husband."
He also looked in the direction where his master fled: "If I'm not mistaken, he has completely woken up."
"He is still thinking about giving his body to Shen Yan, but for the time being, he probably hasn't found a way to get Shen Yan back..."
"But he seems very afraid of you." Fu Jiuli thought thoughtfully: "What did you do to him?"
"Or...what did he do to you?"
