A piece of Japanese incense

Chapter 240 Heart to Heart

"You pretend to be gentle and submissive all day long, but who are you pretending for?"

Ting Zhu was so frightened by Feng Yan's sudden change that she stepped back repeatedly.

Feng Yan pressed on, threatening: "Just one step! Just that little bit! I will be the most glorious Grand Princess! It's all because of you! Your father! And that damned Yan family!"

"Princess Yan!" Zhi Yihe stood up suddenly and said righteously, "Princess Tingzhu is completely unaware of the grudges of the past! What does it have to do with her? She also experienced the pain of losing her father..."

"Shut up!" Feng Yan was fuming, hurling the teacup at Zhi Yihe. "What right do you have to say that? You're a fool! It was all you who provoked Bai Qi! The Emperor's grandfather ordered a thorough investigation, forcing my father to send troops early! And your father! He actually believed that Jin Qi for no reason! And he even made him the new emperor. How ridiculous!"

Feng Yan became more and more angry, and even pulled out her hairpin and stabbed it directly at Zhi Yihe.

The two men struggled and wrestled until they were both exhausted.

Originally, Zhi Yihe was holding Feng Yan's wrist with one hand and her hair with the other, but suddenly his strength gave out and he fell flat on his back on the ground, "Ahhhhhhhh! Princess, you can kill me or chop me up, it's all up to you!"

Seeing this, Feng Yan lay down beside her without caring about anything, and laughed out loud with an indifferent attitude.

Zhi Yihe also laughed, sweeping away the previous tense atmosphere. This Feng Yan was still the same as when she was a child. Although she was arrogant and domineering, she also had her cute side.

"Zhi Yihe!" Feng Yan's laughter gradually died down, and his face turned serious: "The joy of reunion is beyond words."

Tingzhu was still timid and huddled behind Zhiyihe.

"That's great!" Feng Yan sighed, "No matter when, there will always be someone to protect you..."

Zhi Yihe retorted: "Doesn't the princess also have a brother to protect her? I'm the only one who's all alone, hahaha!"

Feng Yan sneered, "Back then, my brother and I had a near-death experience. I thought I still had him by my side... But he couldn't let go of his old ambitions. He first offered me to the city's defenders, to merchants selling money and grain, to high-ranking officials... until Chu Hai..."

The Lord of the Seven Seas at that time was still Chu Hai's father. He was ambitious and after hearing his brother's eloquence, he decided to support his brother's restoration.

Chu Hai's father and the leader of the sand bandits were half-brothers. From then on, we two siblings, one devoted himself to the pirates, the other married a sand bandit, and we lived in different parts of the world, never to see each other again...

The old city lord originally betrothed me to Chu He, but on the night of the wedding, Chu Hai murdered his master and established himself as the new ruler... Chu He was enraged, but he didn't dare confront his father head-on, so he could only vent his anger on me..."

Feng Yan covered her face and cried as she spoke. Zhi Yihe thought about her own journey. Although it was hard, at least she had Ting Zhu and Yu Tuan by her side. She couldn't help but feel sad for Feng Yan and silently held Feng Yan's hand: "Fortunately, it's all over. Princess, why don't you run away with us! Find a pure land, have no worries about food, and live the rest of your life in peace."

Feng Yan retracted his hand: "You are still being hunted, where can you escape to! No one knows how powerful the power behind the scenes is that wants your life. Moreover, Ting Zhu and I have special identities, so we will never have peace."

Zhi Yihe replied, "Princess, it's even more dangerous for you to be in this den of tigers and wolves."

Feng Yan suddenly changed the subject: "So, Ah He, you hand over the Xiqi national treasure and come with me to meet my brother the Emperor. With the help of the Lord's troops, we can fight back to the Imperial City..."
