When he saw the old king, he was still in his pajamas. He had just gotten up from his bed, and there was still a look of dissatisfaction on his face.

The old king was shocked when he saw the blood on Ye Liechen's shoulder and he lost all sleepiness. "What happened to you? Why are you still in the palace in the middle of the night and you're even injured?"

"I went back to the mansion after the party was over, and after I slept for a while, I received a call from Princess Jesse. Her voice was filled with alarm, and she kept saying she was afraid and wanted me to help her. I'll come to the palace to look for her. "

However, when I arrived at the palace, I couldn't find her, and I didn't dare disturb anyone. I searched the palace by myself, and when I found her, she was lying on the ground, dead. I saw a shadow flash around the corner, and I caught up with her, and before I could even see her face, she fired a shot at me and ran away.

The old king saw Jesse's body being carried in and took a few deep breaths. His body was swaying and he looked like he would fall down at any moment. " How could this be? Who was it? "My daughter, Jessie, has committed such a blatant murder in the palace. Check it out! I want the murderer to live a life worse than death!" The old king was crying his heart out. "Jessie, my Jessie..."

Ye Liechen looked at the old king's grieving expression and did not expect that the old king would have some kinship with his unspeakable pain. At the very least, he would be able to cry after death. But the more sad the old king was, the worse it was for Jane Xia. The old king would not let this go so easily.

The old king called the Prime Minister and brought in soldiers from the military. The entire palace was in a state of panic, wondering what had happened tonight. Nightfall watched as the soldiers searched the palace one by one. He couldn't help but worry if they would be able to successfully leave the palace.

"..."

Han Mo Bei was injured. His face was pale and his aura was becoming increasingly unstable. Jian Xia and Han Mo Bei were hiding in a fake mountain in the palace garden. Jian Xia tore off a piece of cloth from her clothes and temporarily stopped the bleeding for Han Mo Bei. Jane Xia knew that she couldn't continue like this and would be discovered sooner or later. However, because of Han Mo Bei's blood loss, his mind wasn't clear.

"Search every nook and cranny of the fake mountain."

When Han Mo Bei heard the commotion, he slowly opened his eyes, "Jian Xia, you should go first. You have a way to get out by yourself, it's more important to save sister-in-law."

Jian Xia grabbed Han Mo Bei, "If your sister-in-law knew that I left you behind, even if she woke up, she wouldn't forgive me."

Han Mo Bei's voice was weak. "I …" There's really no way out, you … "Let's go …"

The soldiers who were searching had already entered the fake mountain and were slowly approaching the hiding place of Jian Xia's group.

Jian Xia used a great amount of effort to pinch Han Mo Bei, "Listen up, I'll go out and lure them away. You have to survive. When the day comes, think of a way to leave this place."

Jane Xia raised her gun and walked out. Before she could see the soldiers, she saw a woman.

The woman wore a snow-white silk nightgown with long curly hair draped behind her shoulders. Her facial features were exquisite, and she seemed like a fairy that did not know the world. She saw Jansa and the gun in his hand, and she was surprised, but she did not scream.

"Go in and see if there's anyone inside. I'll go over there to take a look."

The woman looked behind Jian Xia. There seemed to be someone there, and the figure seemed to be somehow familiar.

Without the slightest hesitation, Ning Huan walked out. Her frail figure seemed so lonely in the middle of the night. Ning Huan, on the other hand, did not expect that the decision she made in that instant would change her entire life.

The Duchess? Why are you here so late at night? "Is the Duke of Windsor here?" The soldiers who wanted to enter to search were startled when they saw Ning Huan.

"He's not here. I've been losing sleep so much recently, I came to the garden when I couldn't sleep. What are you guys doing? Why are there so many people?"

"Just now, Princess Jesse was assassinated, and we were in the middle of catching the murderer. Madam, did you see any suspicious people?"

"Suspicious person?" "Let me think." Ning Huan pretended to be deep in thought, "You seem to be right. When I first arrived, I seemed to have seen two figures heading towards the west gate. It was too dark then, so I couldn't see them clearly. I don't know if they are the people you're looking for."

"West Gate?" The guards there were the least, and they must have wanted to get out of there. "Thank you, Duchess, for your early rest." The soldier didn't have the slightest doubt in his mind. Ning Huan looked weak and delicate, with eyes as big as autumn water, and an innocent expression. It was hard to tell that she was lying when she said those words.

The soldier called out to the other soldiers, "Stop searching. Gather all of you, come with me to the west gate."

When they had all left, Ning Huan returned to the fake mountain. Jane Xia nodded at her. "Thank you. You saved my brother's life today."

"Jesse usually does all sorts of evil, and she deserves all of it. Are you a citizen?"

"Yeah, you don't look like a Chinese."

I'm from A, too, but my grandmother is from C. Is your friend hurt? "

"Yes, it's a gunshot wound. Can you think of a way to save him?"

"Let me see how bad his injuries are first."

Jane Xia stepped aside to let Ning Huanhuan pass.

When Ning Huan saw Han Mo Bei's face, she suddenly stopped …

The person in front of her had a deathly pale face, and blood was all over her shoulders. Although she stopped, she looked extremely frightening, and even though his lips were somewhat white and his eyes were tightly shut, his handsome face was still the same as in his memories. In that instant, all the memory fragments assembled in Ning Huan's mind.

Every encounter between people seemed to be a coincidence, but the truth was that it was destined to happen in the dark. If they missed it this time, they would meet again the next time.

She still remembered that day five years ago when it rained heavily in the imperial capital. She knelt in front of the Han family's gate and begged Han Mo Bei's father to let her go, but she did not understand why the two families who were originally on good terms with each other would suddenly become enemies overnight. She kept begging, but Han Mo Bei just stood there without a trace of warmth on his 16 year old face.

Ning Huan fell into the rain. She watched the Han Family's gate close bit by bit. She laughed heartily in the rain, but even as she laughed, tears still flowed down her face.

It turned out that the one who was deeply in love was her, and it was just her.

In the end, Ning Huan's father wasn't able to hold on. Under the pressure of public opinion, her father chose to commit suicide. She left for C Nation under her mother's arrangements and went to her mother's family. Since then, she had never returned, not even to her mother's funeral.

Looking at the red-eyed Ning Huan, Jian Xia suddenly felt that the woman before her looked a little familiar. Combined with Han Mo Bei, he suddenly thought of Ning Huan and an incident from five years ago in the Imperial Capital.
