The eldest daughter's scheming, the crown prince's exclusive favor to the venomous concubi

As she spoke, Jian Yue walked to the bedside, sat down, and casually began to wipe her curved sword.

Bai Jianan immediately followed to the bedside, squatted down, and looked up at Jian Yue, saying, "Wife, I was wrong, I was really wrong, please forgive me, okay?"

Upon hearing this, Jian Yue looked at Bai Jianan. The sincere expression of remorse on his face moved Jian Yue, and she couldn't help but ask, "Then tell me, what did you do wrong?"

Bai Jianan immediately raised his hand and said as if making a vow, "My wife, tell me where I went wrong, and I'll admit where I went wrong. In short, it's all my fault."

Jian Yue: ...

Seeing Jian Yue remain silent, Bai Jianan pressed on, pouting and looking at Jian Yue with a wronged expression, saying, "Wife, please forgive me, okay? You don't know how angry I was when I saw you with that bastard prince. I wish I could twist his head off and use it as a football. How dare he lewdly smile at my woman! I'll make him a eunuch from now on."

Jian Yue suddenly laughed and said sarcastically, "Speaking of which, I wonder who it was that had such a beautiful fiancée who had just died not long ago, and yet he rushed to marry another woman. Anger? Should you be angry?"

"It shouldn't be."

Bai Jianan immediately said, "My lady, please don't be angry. You'll make yourself sick. I'll go back and deal with that woman Heli Hong right now, and bring her head here so you can sit on it."

Bai Jianan turned to leave, his serious expression making Jian Yue unable to suppress a smile. After all, it was a long-awaited reunion, and she couldn't stay angry; she could only smile.

Upon hearing Jian Yue's laughter, Bai Jianan immediately turned around with a smile and took two steps to Jian Yue's side, pulling her into a tight embrace with astonishing force.

Jiang Yue, instead of struggling, hugged Bai Jianan tightly, her ten fingers even grabbing Bai Jianan's clothes on both sides, almost tearing them apart.

She suddenly burst into tears, saying, "Bai Jianan, you bastard."

Bai Jianan closed his eyes, feeling half at ease, and said, "Yes, I'm a bastard, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Yueyue, I miss you so much."

"I'm just like you, but I hate you too."

As Jian Yue spoke, she suddenly pushed Bai Jianan away, stared at him with wide eyes, and said, "I watched you get married with my own eyes, watched you enter the bridal chamber with her, do you know that my heart was bleeding?"

Bai Jianan hurriedly said, "I didn't consummate the marriage with her, really. On our wedding night, I only wanted to be with you."

Jian Yue sneered: "No? Who would believe that? Did you even remember who I was back then? Bai Jianan, I hate you, I hate you for keeping such an ingrate by your side. I hate you for knowing she loves you but not exiling her, instead keeping her by your side."

Bai Jianan, tell me, what exactly do you want from me? Even though I hate you so much, I still can't let you go. You're like a root, stuck in my heart, impossible to remove.

Upon hearing this, Bai Jianan embraced Jian Yue once more and whispered, "Once it's taken root, don't take it out. I know you hate me, and you can hate me all you want. I also hate myself for not being able to protect you, and for putting you in danger because of me."

It's all my fault, my fault. Don't cry. If you're sad, you can hit me, yell at me, even kill me, I'll accept it. Just don't cry, don't cry.

Jian Yue's tears kept falling, but she didn't make a sound. But Bai Jianan knew that she was crying.

His heart ached from crying. He glanced at the figure outside the door, then simply picked up Jian Yue and jumped out of the window, leaving the surveillance range of the Crown Prince's Golden Armor Guards.

The night was cool, and the two were in the air. Bai Jianan wrapped Jian Yue tightly in his cloak, and Jian Yue was held in his arms, feeling warm inside.

The two did not go far, but went to Lanyue Tower, which had been closed down since then and had not been visited by anyone.

The news that the original poster, Hua Xiangrong, had been skinned alive spread like wildfire, making the place gloomy. In addition, a fire later turned the place into ruins, and no one came anymore.

The two went straight to the backyard, found Hua Xiangrong's room, and went inside.

Seeing Bai Jianan's cautious demeanor, Jian Yue suddenly laughed and said, "Being cautious now is a bit too late."

Bai Jianan put her on the ground, then found a quilt in the cabinet and spread it on the bed. He then pulled her to sit on the edge of the bed and said, "It's not too late. As long as my wife is still by my side, it's not too late."

Jian Yue smiled, her eyes filled with sorrow, and said, "I thought the phoenix coronet and wedding robe were my favorite things, but now, I suddenly feel a strong aversion to them, because I watched you personally lead the person wearing the phoenix coronet and wedding robe into the room, and watched you two get married."

Upon hearing this, Bai Jianan pulled her into his arms and said, "I'm sorry. I know that all of this will be the saddest thing in your life, but I can't change it."

Yueyue, I never thought of forgetting you. Even when I was plagued by Gu worms, I still wanted to be with you. But I never imagined that all of this would almost become a pipe dream.

When I saw you being transferred into the Hongmeng River, my heart went with you. If it weren't for the words you left me as you fell, I don't know if I would have survived.

Jian Yue leaned on his shoulder and said, "You understood?"

"Yeah, I understand."

Bai Jianan nodded, sighed, and said, "At first, I didn't think about it. I always thought I would go with you, but Helihong threatened me with my mother's life, so I had to give up on dying."

Later, when it was all over, thinking of your smile, your words, and your promise to wait for me, it suddenly dawned on me that this might just be a ruse to escape; perhaps you weren't dead after all.

Jian Yue nodded: "Yes, I didn't die."

"Luckily you're not dead, otherwise I..."

Before Bai Jianan could finish speaking, he suddenly heard a cold laugh. He immediately looked up warily and saw Hei Feng sitting on the windowsill, looking at the moonlight outside.

Jian Yue frowned, displeased, and said, "You were following me?"

Black Wind turned around and looked at her, saying, "It's not that, it's just that you chose the wrong place."

Bai Jianan stood in front of Jian Yue and coldly asked, "Who are you?"

Hei Feng chuckled, looked at Bai Jianan, and asked in return, "Who do you think I am?"

His tone was cold, carrying a hint of murderous intent. Jian Yue immediately became alert, stood up abruptly, pushed Bai Jianan behind her, and looked at Hei Feng with a cold face, saying, "What are you going to do?"

Black Wind suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest. He casually looked at the moon again and said indifferently, "Nothing, I just feel annoyed. Yueyue, you shouldn't have come with him."

Bai Jianan sneered, "What does this have to do with you?"

Black Wind shook his head: "A newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger, but it is no match for a giant python without venomous fangs. People should be more cautious sometimes. Capsizing a boat is a small matter, but losing your life is a big deal."

As Hei Feng spoke, his figure suddenly disappeared from the window. Jian Yue was startled and quickly pushed Bai Jianan to the window. She turned to look inside the room and said coldly, "Hei Feng, don't force me."

Hei Feng appeared by the bedside, looking at Jian Yue with hurt in his eyes.

"Forcing you? Yes, I've been forcing you all along. But so what? Could you have refused?"

Jian Yue frowned, and Bai Jianan was about to make a move, but Jian Yue stopped him firmly. He couldn't help but say unhappily, "Yueyue, what are you doing?"

Upon hearing this, Jian Yue shook her head and said, "Don't be impulsive, you are no match for him."

“I know, but I can’t let him hurt you.”

Bai Jianan protected Jian Yue, but Jian Yue kept protecting him, which puzzled him greatly.

The man in front of him was far too dangerous. Not only could he tell at a glance that he was no match for him, but he also saw the gleam in the man's eyes as he looked at Jian Yue.

This is what he considers the most dangerous thing.

That's love.

Perhaps it was a common instinct shared by males, but Hei Feng immediately realized that his feelings for Jian Yue had been exposed by a child.

It must be said that he admired Bai Jianan.

When he was his age, he was probably not as good as him.

"Hurt her? Do you think I would hurt her?"

Black Wind countered with a question, his smile undiminished, and his lazy tone only amplified the sense of danger emanating from him.

Jian Yue was on edge. After Hei Feng finished speaking, she blurted out, "What exactly do you want to do?"

Hei Feng suddenly smiled and disappeared again in an instant. The next second, he was already next to Jian Yue and grabbed Jian Yue's shoulder. When Bai Jianan saw this, he quickly attacked. Hei Feng didn't even raise an eyebrow. With his other hand, he threw Bai Jianan out and made him fall into the backyard of Lan Yue Tower.

Seeing this, Jian Yue tried to leave, but Hei Feng grabbed her tightly. She turned around and was about to yell at Hei Feng, but Hei Feng suddenly glared at her and said, "Do you know where you are?"

Jian Yue paused, then Hei Feng coldly snorted, "Didn't you want to know the exact location of the armored soldiers? Now, your wish has come true."

As he spoke, he led Jian Yue toward the backyard. Bai Jianan got up in the yard and saw that Hei Feng had already led Jian Yue to the well in the backyard.

Bai Jianan attacked again, but this time, Hei Feng grabbed him by the neck and said coldly, "Killing you is just a matter of me flicking my finger. What do you think you can do to me?"

Just as Hei Feng was about to exert force, Jian Yue suddenly grabbed the back of Hei Feng's hand. Hei Feng looked over and saw Jian Yue coldly staring at him, saying, "If she dies, I will die, and your plan will fall apart."

Black Wind narrowed his eyes. "Threatening me? Do you know that if you die, you lose, and this situation will be resolved."

Jian Yue nodded, then suddenly smiled and said, "If that's the case, then I'm finally free, aren't I? What's wrong with that?"

Jian Yue spoke casually, but her palms were sweaty. She was still worried that Hei Feng wouldn't compromise. But the moment she finished speaking, Hei Feng released Jian Yue, looked at her coldly, and said, "A man has made you lose your composure. Do you think you still have a chance to win?"
