Listening to Fu also froze for a moment: "Yes, how about her?"

He glanced around and didn't see the dragonfly. He found the two little palace ladies and eunuchs and asked, "Did you see the dragonfly?"

The two looked at each other and shook their heads.

Tingfu frowned and looked at the little palace lady: "Duoer, don't you sleep in the same room?"

Duo'er heard it and said softly: "When the slave-maid heard the sound coming, she saw that there was no one on Sister Dragonfly's bed, and thought she had already come, as a result—"

"Ok?"

Tingfu's brows tightened.

You know, this harem is different from the imperial palace in Peking City. In the palace over there, the outer door will be locked after the night has passed, and then the palaces will also lock the doors one after another, not only to prevent danger, but also to avoid private giving and receiving in the palace.

However, because this Jinling Palace was just occupied by Zhu Chengjin’s people, there are no people living in all the palaces except Nanyan. Besides, Nanyan is not the master now, so right now the gate of Yikun Palace cannot be opened at all. lock.

If this is the case, Dragonfly can leave here at any time.

But, leaving here, where can she go?

You know, her home in Jinling City is already ruined. Nan Yan rescued her. If she left Nan Yan, she would have nowhere to go.

Tingfu asked the two court ladies and eunuchs to go to the gate to see if they could find the dragonfly. He went back to Nan Yan and said, Nan Yan's brows frowned slightly.

At this time, she had already tied the belt herself, and asked Doer to find herself a coat to put on.

Then got up and walked to the door.

By this time, midsummer had passed, and at night, when the wind blew, it was still a bit cool. Nan Yan looked at the darkness outside, and her heart sank.

At this moment, a voice came from the silent night.

It's not that many people are yelling loudly, but it is too quiet at night, when someone moves, there will be sounds. This is extremely unusual in the Jinling Palace, especially the harem at this moment.

Nan Yan immediately said to Listening Fu: "Go out and have a look."

"Yes."

Tingfu took the little **** and ran out hurriedly, leaving only Duo'er standing by her side. That Duo'er entered Yikun Palace for many days. Naturally, Zhu Chengjin's explanation was obtained. There was no need to do anything else, just let They usually stare at the imperial concubine, and she knows that the imperial concubine and the people around her don’t believe her, so she doesn’t dare to get too close to Nanyan. At this time, I don’t know if it’s because of being too scared, and she also shivered. Leaning to the south smoke.

Everyone knows that today is a day of battle on the river.

All of them are waiting for a result. If the people from Jiangbei cross the river, then--

Then everything is fine.

but……

Nan Yan frowned and looked outside, without saying a word. After about a stick of incense, when her hands and feet were cooled by the night breeze, she finally saw Tingfu running back with the little eunuch, listen. Fu's face was pale with no blood, and he walked in front of Nan Yan: "Niang Niang..."

Nan Yan looked at him with a bad voice, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Tingfu's throat struck, and he said, "The battle is over."

"what?"

"..."

Tingfu looked up at her and said softly: "The person in front said, Mr. Xu, has returned."

"..."

Nan Yan's heart sank.

Although Tingfu did not say whether it was won or lost, in fact, it is even needless to say. Even people who are not familiar with military will understand that if people from Jiangbei successfully cross the river and attack Jinling City, then tonight, no It might be so quiet.

Inside the Jinling Palace, it is impossible for this to happen.

Nan Yan's breath paused, and after a while, he said, "They, won..."

Tingfu lowered his head, and after a long time, he gave a soft "um".

As soon as he finished speaking, Nan Yan was staggered.

"Manny!"

Ting Fu and Duo'er next to her was so scared that she hurriedly stepped forward to support her, only to see Nan Yan's face pale, and her breath became erratic, as if she couldn't help her breath, Ting Fu hurriedly wanted to help her go back to her room to rest. But Nan Yan raised her hand hard and shook it, beckoning them to help her sit down on the bench under the porch.

Several people hurriedly guarded her and walked over and sat down.

Nan Yan leaned back on the bench, his face was as pale as paper, and his eyes were blank, as if his whole soul had been drawn away.

These days, she is very comfortable in front of Zhu Chengjin and Xu Shizong, but she has no confidence.

After all, she is just a woman.

There is no power to bind the chicken, and there is only one listening to the blessings around him, even if he tries his best, he can't fight them.

All she can rely on is her trust in Zhu Feng, and the people from Jiangbei will be able to cross the river, regain Jinling, and rescue them.

However, she didn't expect it.

Xu Shifeng actually failed.

Maybe Xu Shifeng is really not good at water warfare, or maybe they are rushed to prepare and are not yet the opponent of Xu Shizong who has been planning for a long time here in Jinling, but no matter what, the people in Jiangbei should not be so vulnerable!

But—it is the fact.

They actually failed.

At this time, Nan Yan's last line of defense seemed to have collapsed.

"Manny..."

Tingfu's eyes were red, and she was so scared that she didn't care about arrogance, and she held her cold hands: "Mother, you must not fall down!"

Nan Yan looked down at him.

She didn't know what to say.

She even couldn't believe it.

how is this possible?

How could the people in Jiangbei fail like this?

Thinking of this, she asked again: "Listen to the blessing, what you said is true? Did you really find out?"

Listening to Fu red eyes, choked and said: "The previous news is indeed spread like this. And—"

"And what?"

"Furthermore, they also said that Mr. Xu came back this time, as if he had brought some people back. It is said that he was caught alive on the river."

"what!?"

When Nan Yan heard it, his brows wrinkled again.

Captured alive on the river?

Yesterday, I heard that Xu Shizong wanted to bring Xu Shifeng to the south of the Yangtze River and convince him to join Zhu Chengjin's command. The two brothers worked for him together. Could it be that Xu Shifeng was really caught by them?

Thinking this way, Nan Yan's heart fell even more into the abyss.

She gritted her teeth, grabbed the back of the bench and stood up, listening to Fu hurriedly said: "Where is the mother going?"

South flue: "Let's take a look."

After speaking, he turned around and walked outside Yikun Palace. He couldn't stop him, so he could only take Duoer and the others to follow. Nan Yan walked out and asked in a deep voice, "Where are they?"

Ting Fu said, "I heard that Zhu Chengjin was in the Jiaotai Hall tonight—well, so everyone went over there."
