Nangong Zhen raised his hand, signaling for the ministers to quiet down. Immediately, the hall became silent.

He clasped his hands together and said to Nangong Xiao, who was on the dragon throne in front, "Father, please punish Princess Lin and rouse our army. We will definitely win this battle."

"Southern Water Country will definitely win."

"If we kill Princess Lin, the Southern Water Country will win for sure." No one knew when, but the officials had already set their hearts on it.

Nangong Xiao had never seen the ministers act in unison before, so he had no choice but to seriously consider how to resolve the matter.

On the other side, Yan Xiaoxi and Nangong Lin appeared abnormally calm as they competed with the other ministers.

This abnormal calmness caused a bad feeling to arise in Liu Zhitian's heart.

He frowned slightly and looked at Nangong Zhen, who was beside him. He wanted to delay this action for a while.

However, Nangong Zhen ignored the cowering Liu Zhitian and completely ignored him. He continued his next plan and gave a signal to the guards beside him.

Immediately, another soldier rushed into the main hall. He was panting heavily and was sweating profusely as he knelt on the ground.

"Your Majesty, the border is in an emergency. Please send reinforcements." At the command of the general, the soldiers came back swiftly on horseback.

"Imperial Father, please punish Princess Lin immediately. Only by making everyone submit will we be able to rouse our morale." Nangong Zhen half-knelt down to pressure Nangong Xiao.

Liu Zhitian stood at the side and shot an angry glance at Nangong Zhen. He knew that Nangong Zhen would not obediently cooperate. He would listen to all of Nangong Zhen's commands.

When this matter was over, he wanted Nangong Zhen to see the consequences of acting so recklessly.

"Your majesty, if this continues, the border won't be able to hold on." At this point, Liu Zhitian could only stand on Nangong Zhen's side.

Nangong Xiao understood that the situation in front of them was already very serious. If they did not deal with Yan Xiaoxi, Liu Zhitian would not go to the border to support them. The Southern Water Country would be in danger.

"Men! Arrest Princess Lin and Liu Peng and throw them into the prison." After some consideration, Nangong Zhen quickly came up with an answer.

"Halt." After reprimanding him, she repressed the guards who were about to rush forward.

"Impudent, Lin'er wants to rebel?" Nangong Zhen knew that he could not tolerate Nangong Lin at this moment. If he was allowed to act recklessly, he would lose the entire Southern Water Country.

"This son doesn't dare." Nangong Lin slightly bowed and replied.

"For this matter, I will give the entire world an explanation. Does Ling'er understand?" Nangong Zhen thoughtfully looked at Nangong Lin, hoping that he would understand his own painstaking efforts.

Nangong Lin, who was extremely intelligent, naturally understood Nangong Zhen's decision. However, he could not allow Yan Xiaoxi to be taken away from him just like that.

"What are you standing there for? "Pull it down." Nangong Zhen shouted at the guards.

The guards were startled and immediately rushed to Yan Xiaoxi's side, grabbing her arms.

"Wait." Nangong Lin walked out and stood beside Yan Xiaoxi.

Nangong Zhen smiled sinisterly. This was exactly the result he wanted to see.

Nangong Lin was so angry that he turned into a beauty. To rebel in front of everyone, this was a crime that would last for thousands of years.

"Lin'er?" Nangong Xiao's tone was ice-cold and her expression was as cold as ice. It was clear how angry she was at Nangong Lin's actions.

In the face of a great enemy, he still had the mood to estimate the affection between his children. This made Nangong Xiao involuntarily feel somewhat disappointed in him.

Nangong Lin stood in front of Yan Xiaoxi and said to her with his clear gaze, "I will send someone to prepare some good food for you."

Yan Xiaoxi nodded and smiled innocently, "Alright."

The two of them looked at each other and nothing was said.

Nangong Lin signaled the guard with his eyes. The guard understood and immediately left with Yan Xiaoxi.

As this matter came to an end, Nangong Xiao, who was seated on the dragon throne, immediately issued another command, "Confer the title of Marshal Nangong Lin and Liu Zhitian as the vanguard. You can move to the borders and resist the enemy forces."

"Yes." Nangong Lin and Liu Zhitian said in unison.

Nangong Lin looked at Yan Xiaoxi's figure that had long gone far away. His gaze was deep and deep, causing others to be unable to fathom it.

Just like this, Yan Xiaoxi was pressed into the dungeon, waiting for orders. Nangong Lin led the army and set off for the border.

Very soon, Nangong Lin's group of men were ready to set off under the anticipation of the crowd.

On the city wall, a bright and beautiful figure stood there as she looked at Nangong Lin, who was dressed in armor, with deep emotion. She looked at the teardrops in her eyes and muttered, "Big Brother Lin, I will wait for your return."

Finishing his words, he immediately turned around and headed for another destination.

In the cell, Yan Xiaoxi was locked up. Other than the old wooden tables, stools, and beds, there was nothing else.

She leisurely sat on the bed and picked up the weeds on the ground. She was actually patiently knitting things up.

"Princess." Hearing the familiar voice, Yan Xiaoxi put down the unfinished work in her hands and walked to the entrance of the prison.

Outside the door, Xiao Cui was holding her lunchbox and anxiously looking at her.

"Xiao Cui." Yan Xiaoxi called out.

"Esteemed wangfei, wuwu …" Xiao Cui could not help but cry when she thought about the situation of her own mansion.

They had originally thought that they would at least be able to live a good life for a while. Who knew that ever since they arrived in the Southern Water Country, they had never had a peaceful time.

All sorts of things had been happening to the wangfei. After settling this matter, there would be another.

"Xiao Cui, what are you crying for?" Yan Xiaoxi looked at Xiao Cui in shock, not understanding her actions.

"Esteemed wangfei, you …" Xiao Cui wanted to say something but hesitated, she wondered if the wangfei really did not know her current situation.

"Don't waste time, give me the food." As she spoke, Yan Xiaoxi extended her hand towards the lunchbox.

Xiao Cui was stunned for a moment before letting go of the lunchbox. The prince had asked her to deliver this food to his wife.

As soon as she received the food, Yan Xiaoxi was in a great mood. She placed the food within the lunchbox on the table. Inside were the dishes she loved the most.

This was great, Little Linlin was indeed the best to her.

However, when she thought about how she wouldn't be able to see him after this, Yan Xiaoxi felt very sad in her heart.

Outside the door, Xiao Cui looked at Yan Xiaoxi's lonely expression and finally understood that she knew all of this, and was only pretending to be strong.

Ah, the life of the princess is miserable.

She was as beautiful as a flower and as beautiful as a jade. There were too many things in this world that she had never seen before, so she died young like this.

"Hey, you, you, it's time to visit, hurry up and go." Not long after, the guards began to urge them.

Xiao Cui looked at Yan Xiaoxi with worry, and reluctantly said, "Esteemed wangfei, you need to take care. Xiao Cui will be leaving."

Yan Xiaoxi nodded and continued to eat her food. "Alright."

"Hurry up and leave." The jailer urged again, and Xiao Cui took one last look at Yan Xiaoxi before leaving.

In the blink of an eye, Yan Xiaoxi had eaten more than half of the food that Xiao Cui brought. As she was eating, she felt like there was someone at the entrance of the prison, because she saw the shadow of the person who came.

Turning his head to look, he originally thought that Xiao Cui had returned. Who knew that there was someone else standing in front of Yan Xiaoxi.

Yan Xiaoxi's eyes widened as she exclaimed, "It's you!"
