[QTC] MBDT Chapter 261

Nan Shaotian fell into wireless self-blame and regret.

At that moment, he felt that he had no face to stay by her side anymore, and he was afraid of seeing the look of contempt and disgust in her eyes.

Nan Shaotian held her hand and said, “The Northern General is brave and good at fighting, and the Southern Kingdom still needs him. Don’t worry, I will protect their prosperity for the rest of their lives.”

Bei Yutang felt relieved when she heard his promise. A bright smile appeared on her lips, and she fell asleep with such a satisfied smile.

An hour later, Nan Shaotian looked at her peaceful sleeping face.

“Tang’er, it’s getting dark. Can we go inside and sleep?”

She did not respond quietly.

“Then, let’s sleep a little longer and go back later.” Nan Shaotian said softly and dotingly.

He stayed there until late at night.

Nan Shaotian held those cold hands and murmured: “Is it too cold? Your hands are cold. It doesn’t matter. I’ll help you warm them up.”

He pressed her hand tightly against his chest, exhaling hot air through his mouth from time to time, and murmured, “It won’t be cold in a while.”

“Tang’er, would you like to talk to me for a while?”

…

“Tang’er, are you angry with me?”

…

“Tang’er, as long as you wake up, you can vent your anger any way you want. Please wake up and look at me again, okay?” The groveling voice was filled with a thick nasal sound.

The tears fell drop by drop on that peerless face that had long lost its warmth.

“Tang’er, Tang’er…”

Those calls could not wake up the person around him.

That night, when the maids and eunuchs who were watching outside saw this scene, they all shed tears. Each of them had red eyes and covered their mouths tightly to prevent their crying from disturbing them.

The moon set, and the sun rose. When the first ray of morning sunlight shone on the man and woman clinging to each other, it was so beautiful. However, there was a deep sadness in the air.

On that day, the Southern Kingdom Emperor went on strike for the first time in history. The court officials speculated whether the Emperor was ill, and soon, they found out that Concubine Chen had passed away.

For three consecutive days, Emperor Nan did not attend the morning court.

The concubines in the harem and the court officials knelt outside one after another, begging the Emperor to go to court and keep the dragon’s body.

It was not until some ministers invited the Queen Mother who was going to Wanshou Mountain to worship the Buddha that this absurd and unruly incident ended.

Bei Yutang was posthumously named Queen Chen. On the day after her burial, Nan Shaotian appeared in the cold palace.

At this time, Xia Yuwei was tortured by a group of concubines until she was reduced to a human form. She had long lost her former beauty. When she saw Nan Shaotian, her eyes were full of joy.

“Shaotian, ​​you are here to take me out, right?”

Nan Shaotian looked at her coldly with his cold eyes. It was this woman in front of him who finally took her away. For her, he lost Tang’er.

“You are not qualified to call me by my name.”

Xia Yuwei looked at the man who was so indifferent and wanted to kill her, and she smiled sadly, “Then, what are you doing here? Are you here to kill me?”

“I will not kill you. I will let you live for a long time.”

He promised Tang’er that he would spare her life.

When he thought of Tang’er’s expression on her behalf that day, he understood what she meant. She thought that he still loved Xia Yuwei and was just acting like this out of anger.

She saved her life just to give him a chance to regret.

However, she did not understand. His heart had already reached her, but he realized it too late, so late that he had no chance to make amends.
