The moonlight tonight was not very clear.

Ever since they left, there didn't seem to be any bright moonlight. The dark sky hung low, and the few stars in the sky seemed lonely and lonely.

The black sky was behind him, and his eyes were even darker than the sky. It was as if there were many complex emotions in them, like a few lonely stars in the sky, flashing cold and hot, too contradictory a light.

"You … You drank too much? "

She pressed down on her heart that was beating wildly, Yun Qixi pretended to tease gently.

He gave a soft grunt, before his tall body suddenly leaned over.

Yun Qixi lost her balance, her body leaned backwards, and both of her bodies fell on the grass at the same time. She thought that with the disparity in their physiques, she would definitely be smashed into a meat patty. However, she didn't, and Shan Liancheng didn't press her own weight on top of her.

It wasn't until she was lying on the grass that the weight of his body pressed down. Before he could regain her senses, his kiss swept over him in an earth-shattering wave. Thus, Yun Qixi was completely unable to recover from her shock.

His kiss was very urgent and deep, and the strong aroma of wine wafted between his lips, bringing with it an irresistible domineering and irritable feeling. It was unknown if it was just an illusion, but there was even a hint of bitterness.

It was not the first time he had kissed her. He had kissed her unexpectedly, deliberately, penitently, but never once, as if he had exhausted all his passion, as if he would never have the chance to kiss her again after tonight.

Yun Qixi felt that he was hugging her too tightly, their bodies were close together. The warmth of his palms had already ignited her skin through the thin fabric of her clothes, and she had already unknowingly responded in the most honest manner. She could clearly sense the normal reaction that Shan Liancheng, as a man, should have under these circumstances. However, other than a closer hug and a deeper kiss, he didn't move any further.

Yun Qixi opened her eyes stealthily, looking at the night sky, which seemed to be very close to them, the sparse stars seemed to flash behind him.

The horse snorted and lowered its head to eat the grass. There were a few fireflies lingering around. It was unknown how long this kiss lasted before he finally let go of her.

He looked at her, his eyes filled with something called desire, but he was a soldier, a man of great self-control. It was obvious that he was restraining himself.

"Are you a woman or not?"

Yun Qixi never would have thought that after taking advantage of her, the first thing he would say would actually be this.

"What do you mean?" Yun Qixi glared angrily.

Shan Liancheng suddenly raised his hand, and brushed off her hair that had been messed up since he was too engrossed at first, and stared at her, and asked: "Don't you know to close your eyes?"

So this was what he meant?

At first, when Shan Liancheng used his hands to brush away her hair, he was overly gentle, to the point that her heart started to undulate. A person who was usually aloof and proud suddenly became gentle not only to attract her attention, but also to make her feel touched.

Shan Liancheng rolled over and laid down beside Yun Qixi. He looked at the night sky expressionlessly, and no one knew what he was thinking.

After a long while, Yun Qixi finally could not stand this silence. She thought for a bit, turned her head, and stared at this handsome and unparalleled, yet seemingly hiding countless of things as she gave a side smile, "Was it because you took advantage of me that you felt guilty? It doesn't matter, I don't blame you, I just thought that I was bitten by a puppy. "

She had thought that he would be angry, that she was trying to provoke his anger. It was better than being silent like this.

However, he did not. It was as if he was already used to her tone. His face did not change as he looked up at the night sky and suddenly asked, "Do you know who my mufei is?"

It seemed like he was going to start a story soon, and it would be better than staying silent. Yun Qixi immediately became alert.

"I don't know. Tell me about it."

"A long time ago, the Royal Father led an army and invaded the capital of the Dai Nation, strangling and killing the patriarch of the Dai Nation. All of the wives deep within the palace were dismissed, and only one stayed.

Shan Liancheng spoke very slowly, as if the scene appeared before his eyes first, and he began to slowly describe it.

They rarely seem to be like this, he said. She listens.

"The imperial concubine was not allowed to become an imperial concubine. The officials were afraid that the imperial concubine would disrupt the harem, but father was so arrogant that he withstood a lot of pressure and brought the imperial concubine back."

Then, Shan Liancheng's tone darkened, and said, "How can he be a harmless tiger with malicious intent, Mother will not get close to anyone tomorrow, but will only be favored by the Royal Father, and the woman will be jealous."

Yun Qixi had already been replaced by this story, and started to speculate based on common sense.

"Does that mean you're not the son of the Emperor?"

"Shan Liancheng's eyes darkened," At first, it was just a rumor spread from the various palace maids, but later on, even the eunuchs and palace maids looked at me differently, as if I was just a dog that anyone would want to trample on. "

Yun Qixi suddenly remembered the night they were on the boat, he said that there were some people who were around twenty years old but didn't know who their father was.

"And then?" Yun Qixi couldn't help but feel unfairness for Shan Liancheng when he was young.

Shan Liancheng's tone was a little gentle, "Jing Yan, come and help me often."

Yun Qixi was a little surprised, "Jing Yan?"

Shan Liancheng smirked and said, "Don't think that Jing Yan is cowardly, he was only born with a gentle and kind body. The first time I saw him being humiliated was when he was young and helped me scold him."

Yun Qixi couldn't help but laugh as she thought about the way Jing Yan, who had a nickname, scolded others.

Shan Liancheng's gaze was somewhat complicated as it reflected the starlight, and continued, "At that time, there was even a major event."

"What's the big deal?"

"A few veterans of Dai Nation wanted to abduct me. After saying that I was the acting king, they wanted to support me in restoring my country."

Yun Qixi suddenly understood why Shan Liancheng had such a cold and arrogant personality. Since he was young, he had carried the burden of gossip, and adding on to that the enmity and hatred he had towards his country, how could he not feel heavy?

Thinking to this, Yun Qixi practically forgave him all of her previous haughtiness in an instant, and even started to feel sorry for him in her heart.

"What was the result?" she asked.

"What kind of trouble could a few veterans cause? Naturally, their plan had failed, but the rumors were even worse, the mufei had been crying in the palace all day long. Royal Father had never wanted to get involved in the affairs of the imperial harem, but he probably felt sorry for his mufei and was immediately enraged. In one night, the three concubines were sent to the imperial harem, where more than a hundred eunuchs and maids served their duty. That night, the lights were brightly lit and everyone was begging for mercy. I did not sleep at all that night, so Jing Yan accompanied me for an entire night. "

"Does the Emperor believe in his heart that you are his son?"

Shan Liancheng's eyes narrowed, and said, "He will never believe it."

"So even you yourself do not know whether you are the son of the Duke of Dai Nation or the son of the Emperor?"

Shan Liancheng's Adam's apple rolled a little before he said, "I asked my mufei a few times, but every time I asked, mufei would cry. After that, I didn't dare to ask anymore. I only know that seven months after Royal Father brought Mother back, she gave birth to me. The midwife said that I was born prematurely, but others wouldn't believe her.

In Yun Qixi's memories, she had never said so much. It was probably because she had drunk today's wine, or perhaps because she was extremely depressed in her heart.

"No wonder your relationship with Jing Yan is so good. I had thought that Jing Yan had been taken care of by you since he was young, but now I see the reverse. The weak and weak Fourth Prince is actually standing in front of the War God Prince Jin whose might is so great, it's really hard to believe."

Shan Liancheng laughed bitterly, "He was sent by the Empress, his position was already high. If not for the many meritorious deeds during the war, I'm afraid that the people of the world wouldn't think that he is the strongest in the Prince Jin."

The past that he spoke of, the dangers and setbacks that he had underestimated, the facts must have been much more complicated. From when he was a child, he was despised by others. His achievements in war were now impressive, so he must have suffered a lot and put in a lot of effort.

He definitely did not want to fight like this because of Quiet And Steadfast, but he had to because he had to.

He seemed to have finished speaking. After a long while, he said, "Jing Yan is gentle and kind. I hope he is doing well."

Thinking of Shan Jingyan, Yun Qixi took a deep breath, and said, "Since he's so good, the heavens will treat him very well."

Shan Liancheng turned his head to look at her, as though he wanted to say something, but in the end he did not say anything, climbed up from the grass, and pulled Yun Qixi down from the horse, bringing her slowly back to the camp grounds.

From afar, she saw Qing Li's figure anxiously pacing back and forth. Hearing the sound of horse hooves, she turned around and saw Yun Qixi sitting in front of Shan Liancheng.

Ge Feng came over to lead the horse. As Shan Liancheng was about to enter the tent, he suddenly turned around and said to Yun Qixi, "Rest early."

Yun Qixi was surprised for a moment, after talking to her, she became courteous?

At this moment, he suddenly heard a surprised exclamation from the tent not far away.

Thus, Shan Liancheng, Yun Qixi, her guards and a few others who were nearby all rushed towards the tent.

When they opened the curtain, they were stunned by the scene before them.

There was a big bed inside, and two people laid on it. They were Yun Chong and Shan Baozhu.

Yun Chong looked like he drank quite a bit, and his face showed a kind of color. Shan Baozhu was still sober, but he only wore a set of clothes and slept by Yun Chong's side, his hands tightly hugging Yun Chong's waist.

Probably because Yun Chong heard the commotion, he gently opened his eyes and felt the muscles on his body. Looking at the group of people in the tent, his head felt like it was going to explode.

"Princess, why are you here?" Yun Chong stared in disbelief at Shan Baozhu who had somehow appeared on her bed.

Shan Baozhu's face was full of grievance as she lowered her head. She did not speak, but her hands were still holding onto Yun Chong's clothes tightly.

However, this was not the worst part. The worst part was still to come.

Shan Ye, the Queen and Imperial Concubine had received the news and rushed over.
