C107 Soldier Symbol

The news of Yan Xiaoxi giving up Nangong Lin quickly spread through the streets. No one knew what exactly happened. However, when a girl heard this news, she was extremely happy because she finally had the chance to take Princess Lin's place.

The mirror-like moon hung in the sky, casting a silvery light upon the earth.

The secluded manor was devoid of people.

A sneaky figure quietly pushed open the door and walked in. She nervously wandered around the mansion.

Very quickly, a tall and imposing figure entered.

"Big Brother Lin." The moment the person entered, Liu Zhixue ran over impatiently. She wanted to hug him, but was dodged by Nangong Lin.

"Speak, why are you looking for me?" Nangong Lin's voice was incomparably cold.

"Big Brother Lin, are you really going to be so cold towards me?" Liu Zhixue was very hurt by Nangong Lin's rejection of her.

"Your side's concubine, please behave yourself. This King remembers that you are now Hua Ruo Meng?" Nangong Lin's deep eyes were filled with disdain.

"Big Brother Lin, I was forced to do this. In order to return to the Southern Water Country, I carried the child of His Highness the Crown Prince, so I can only marry him." Liu Zhixue's eyes were filled with tears as she desperately tried to explain.

"Oh." Nangong Lin simply agreed, still indifferent to Liu Zhixue's words.

Liu Zhixue was stunned. She did not expect Nangong Lin's reaction to be this calm. It was as if she could not arouse the ripples in his heart, completely meaningless to him.

Since he knew of his identity, why had he come to see him?

If someone were to see it, wouldn't it be impossible for him to say it clearly even if he had a mouth? It's easy to get misunderstood?

Therefore, Liu Zhixue felt that Nangong Lin still had feelings for her. Otherwise, why would he keep his appointment?

"Big brother Lin, that vicious woman, Yan Xiaoxi, is too despicable. She actually dares to divorce you." When Liu Zhixue thought of this, she felt a belly full of fire. Why had the Emperor protected her at that time, and why had he murdered her son so safely? This was the first time she had seen something like this.

Could it be that her plan was seen through by the Emperor, and that she was able to get away with it?

Liu Zhixue could not figure out what Nangong Xiao was thinking. Thankfully, he had managed to bring Yan Xiaoxi down, and had eliminated all the jealousy in her eyes.

"Shut up." He did not allow anyone to say anything wrong about Yan Xiaoxi.

Back then, he had already seen through Liu Zhixue's trick. If anyone else had misunderstood Yan Xiaoxi and brought her down the stairs, he would have been faster than Nangong Xiao and Nangong Zhen and witnessed the entire matter.

He didn't want to say it out loud because he wanted to use this matter to make Yan Xiaoxi leave.

Only now did Nangong Lin truly realize that there was no way to save Liu Zhixue. She was no longer that naive and kind little sister. Once a person's heart changed, it would be very difficult for it to return to its original purpose.

The reason he came to see her late at night was for the soldier token.

"Big Brother Lin?" Liu Zhixue looked at Nangong Lin with a wronged expression. He was actually scolding her for Yan Xiaoxi's sake.

"Why have you come to find This King?" Nangong Lin went straight to the point.

Upon being asked this, Liu Zhixue suddenly came to a realization, "Big Brother Lin, Xue'er has come this time to tell you a secret."

Nangong Lin nodded, motioning for Liu Zhixue to continue.

"His Highness the Crown Prince wants to force the palace." Liu Zhixue said with an exaggerated look of disbelief.

"You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want." Nangong Lin was clearly not that shocked after hearing those words.

He had anticipated this and planned everything out for a long time. However, the only thing he was worried about was the military token of Liu Zhitian's army of several hundred thousand soldiers.

"It is absolutely true. Xue'er heard it with her own ears." Liu Zhixue was afraid that Nangong would not believe her, so she made a vowing gesture.

"Oh?" Nangong Lin had already guessed that Liu Zhixue's motive was quite calm.

Liu Zhixue stood where she was, the moonlight shining on her, making her seem like a fairy.

A person's appearance is beautiful, but his heart is like a snake or a scorpion. His false appearance can only confuse one's appearance. She was just an ordinary person who wanted to get her hands on him. For a man like Nangong Lin who was used to seeing the world, he was completely unmoved by her and would only avoid her.

However, Liu Zhixue did not realize this. She thought that with her devastatingly beautiful appearance, she would definitely be able to lock down Nangong Lin without the obstruction of Yan Xiaoxi.

"Actually, Xue'er lied to Big Brother Lin back then." Liu Zhixue lowered her head and entwined her fingers together in an aggrieved manner.

"Lies?" Nangong Lin understood that Liu Zhixue was referring to the fake soldier token.

"I hope Big Brother Lin will forgive me." Liu Zhixue had a delicate and touching look, causing others to be unable to bear to look at her.

This move was useless against Nangong Lin. His heart had already been filled with Yan Xiaoxi and he could not tolerate anyone else.

"Tell me about it first." Nangong Lin wanted to see what Liu Zhixue had in mind.

"Actually, back then, I was afraid that Big Brother Lin would get angry and give him a fake soldier token?" Liu Zhixue was very careful when she said that, and always paid attention to the expression on Nangong Lin's face.

His gaze was deep and his expression was the same, causing others to be unable to find any information on him.

"What?" Nangong Lin pretended to be surprised as he thought to himself, the soldier token is indeed with Liu Zhixue.

Presumably, she was using this matter in exchange for Nangong Zhen marrying her. From this, it could be seen how shrewd she was.

"Big Brother Lin, don't be angry. The reason why I've called you here today is because I want to give you the soldier token. With it, you can fight against His Highness the Crown Prince." Liu Zhixue had already analyzed the current situation of the Nanshui Country thoroughly.

Nangong Lin originally had more troops and horses than Nangong Zhen, and they were also on par with each other. If the military token in his hands was real, then Nangong Lin would have no suspense in winning this royal power battle.

The key to everything lay in the weapon token in her hand. If he handed the weapon token to Nangong Zhen, he would be able to turn the situation around and give him to Nangong Lin to strengthen his army.

No one had expected that success or failure would be in the hands of her, Liu Zhixue.

If Nangong Zhen were to lose, the consequences would be obvious. Similarly, if he won, Nangong Lin would no longer exist. According to Nangong Zhen's character, he would definitely eliminate him.

This scene was exactly what Liu Zhixue did not wish to see. How could she bear to see Nangong Lin be killed by Nangong Zhen?

"What are the conditions?" Nangong Lin was not a fool. If Liu Zhixue had wanted to give him the weapon token, he wouldn't have waited till now.

This woman had a purpose in everything she did. Her starting point was always for herself, and Yan Xiaoxi's actions were centered around others. Thus, this was the greatest difference between the two of them.

One was selfish, the other was helpful.

No matter who it was, as long as they had eyes, they would all be attracted to Yan Xiaoxi without a doubt.

"Big Brother Lin, I've liked you since I was young. My biggest wish is to become your concubine." Liu Zhixue knew that right now, she was a broken flower that was not worthy of Nangong Lin. However, she believed that with a bargaining chip like the military talisman, Nangong Lin would compromise.

In the face of power, no one could be wrong.
