The wind is still blowing.

The clouds and mist on the mountain swept through Qin Ruolan's beautiful face.

Her eyes also seemed a little dazed, as if she had just returned to many years ago.

She said softly: "He was not the same as he is now."

“…”

"He has many expressions and many emotions on his face. Unlike now, I have seen him laughing, and even his frustrated expression."

Speaking of this, she didn't say anything more.

It seems that there are some memories that she is unwilling to share with others.

After a while of silence, Qin Ruolan let out a light breath and said, "He was much more real at that time."

“…”

Nanyan has not spoken.

But, she wasn't without feeling.

Because, she clearly felt a little tingling in her chest, which was a feeling she had been very familiar with these days.

Almost unconsciously, she held her hands tightly to control herself and not tremble.

Don't lose.

indeed

Zhu Feng and Qin Ruolan have a past.

She was right, she had seen more of Zhu Feng's appearance.

At least Nan Yan himself had never seen Zhu Feng when he was a boy. At that time, he was probably more impulsive and more agile.

Unlike now, any emotion is hidden under that cold face.

If you want to see his sincerity, you must first go through hardships that are enough to make people bruised and bruised, and then you can barely walk into his heart.

Isn't that what I mean by myself?

However, Qin Ruolan seemed to have done it easily.

She tilted her head, looked at Nan Yan, and said, "But how many people can accept the real him?"

Nan Yan took a deep breath and said calmly: "He is not fake now."

“…”

"I know, he disdains to wear a mask to people."

“…”

"Everything he said and everything he did was true."

“…”

"Then, what's the difference?"

Qin Ruolan's eyes flashed slightly.

It seemed that something was stabbing her chest, and the stinging feeling was clearly reflected in her eyes.

She raised her head and looked at Nan Yan's stubborn expression.

After a while, he smiled calmly.

"Yes, he is true now."

She said, but before Nan Yan could speak, she continued, "But there is a big difference between real and real."

“…”

"You must think that you know him very well, and even, you must think that you are special to him."

“…”

"But I want to tell you that I was once special."

“…!”

Nan Yan's heart sank hard.

Qin Ruolan looked at her indifferently and said, "I know that you have followed him around the world, traveled to the battlefield, and even helped him during the Battle of Peking."

“…”

“I have done these things too.”

“…”

Nanyan's breathing became heavier and heavier.

At this time, for some reason, she suddenly thought of what Aunt Tongyun had said to her when she was in the palace in the past.

The Empress and Concubine Ning even look similar in temperament.

It’s not indifference, but that kind of heart.

There are not many people in this palace who have such ambition.

...

Nan Yan clenched his fists hard.

When she spoke again, although her expression was still calm, her voice trembled unconsciously: "What are you telling me about this?"

“…”

Qin Ruolan looked at her quietly for a long time.

Then, he slowly said, "Nothing."

“…”

"I just want to tell you these things."

“…”

"I just want you to know."

Nan Yan reached out and covered her chest lightly. She felt a slight pain in her heartbeat. She took a deep breath and said, "If this is your goal, then you have achieved it."

“…”

"Now, can you tell me where the emperor is going?"

Qin Ruolan glanced at her and then said lightly: "Because, he had never discovered the Chinese ship. He was worried that they had entered the depths of Xingluo Lake and had even reached the Tiangang serial dock."

Nan Yan frowned and subconsciously glanced behind him.

The mist is everywhere, and the lake is filled with smoke.

It can no longer see further, and it is even more impossible to see what she wants to see.

Qin Ruolan said: "So, the emperor has sent troops."

"What? The Emperor has sent troops?"

"That's right."

“…”

"He wants to save someone earlier."

"But he doesn't have a map on this lake, nor does he understand the distribution of the islands inside."

“…”

"What if you encounter danger?"

Qin Ruolan looked at her faintly: "What do you think we are talking about these two days?"

Nan Yan's throat was slightly stuttered.

Qin Ruolan said: "My father once spent his youth here."

“…”

"Although many years have passed, he still remembers it."

“…”

"Since I was a child, he told me what happened here, so I know how many islands there are, and probably what kind of forces are distributed in the Tiangang Serial Dock."

Nanyan couldn't speak.

It turned out that the two of them had been studying the geography on the lake these two days.

Qin Ruolan bent down, picked up the bamboo basket on the ground, and said calmly: "Imperial Concubine, you are not the only one who can help him."

“…”
