The First Genocide's Grudge

  "Ah!" Ah Yu covered her eyes and subconsciously buried herself in her aunt's arms, perhaps this cruel and bloody scene had scared her!

  No wonder, she is a delicate and pampered girl, raised by three older brothers since childhood, how could she have seen such a bloody scene, except for the scene of corpses all over Fengchen Palace!

  An Nan bent down and held Mei'er in his arms, only to find that her body was scorching hot. He secretly cursed, realizing that the poison had taken effect! Gently lifting the clothes on her shoulders, he couldn't help but furrow his sword-like eyebrows and mutter: "This is terrible!"

  No time to think more, took out Mei's dagger from the wooden stake beside and put it in his bosom, then said to Ah Yu who was still stunned and sat on the ground: "We can't stay here any longer, hurry up and pack your things, before dawn, leave here immediately, don't come back here again, the officials will arrive soon!"

  Having said that, he didn't care what Ah Yu and the others would say, and holding Mei'er, he mounted his horse and galloped away!

  "Prince..." The woman was about to say something, but in the blink of an eye, Anan had already taken Mei'er and disappeared from sight, leaving her staring blankly at the place they had left.

  A sense of loss surged up in her mind, she really wanted to ask where that girl named Mei'er came from. Perhaps after this farewell, she would never see that girl named Mei'er again.

  "Auntie, wait for me here for a moment, I'll go in and pack up the goods. We have to leave this place quickly!" Ah Yu looked at the three dead bodies lying on the ground, although she was scared in her heart, but she also knew that now was not the time to be afraid.

  The woman let out a soft sigh and also turned back into the house: "A Yu, you just pack up your things, my things, I'll take care of them myself!" She couldn't let anyone see that painting.

  "Oh, okay!" Ah Yu knew that this aunt had a strange temper and didn't allow her to touch her things, so she didn't force it either.

  After packing up their soft luggage, the two of them reluctantly left the place.

  "Auntie, where are we going now?" came Aiyu's voice from the darkness.

  "Let's go to the imperial city. I have a good sister there, and we'll stay with her for a while first. However, you can't tell anyone that you're Princess Mei Yu again."

  "Oh, I remember..."

  The voices of the two people gradually faded away, leaving behind the three corpses lying quietly there...

  Anan hugged Mei'er and rode his horse out of the forest, but instead of following the original road to catch up with He Qun's team, he ran towards another mountain road!

  Mei'er felt her body getting hotter and hotter, subconsciously leaning into An's arms: "I'm so uncomfortable..." Her consciousness began to blur.

  "Mei'er, hold on a bit longer, we're almost there!" Anan took a glance at the direction, spurred the horse and galloped away, with only one thought left in his mind - he mustn't let anything happen to her!

  Damn it! That guy actually put poison on the hidden weapon!

  The horse led them into a valley and stopped in front of a small lake that was emitting cold air.

  "Mei'er, we're here!" Anan got Mei'er off the horse and was about to head towards the lake.

  But unexpectedly, Mei'er climbed up his arm and wrapped herself around his neck, her eyes hazy as she said: "I'm in so much pain..." And somehow she found the strength to reach out and hook him towards her.

  An thought of pulling her hand away, but found that her strength was several times greater than usual, no matter how hard he tried to pull it away, it was all in vain, and had to admit defeat!

  Let's indulge for a while! He said to himself, holding her tightly and responding passionately...

  At this point of collapse, it is a test of a man's endurance!

  "Mei'er!" Anan hastily pulled her away, he knew that he really wanted to now, and this was his only chance to get her, but taking advantage of someone in a vulnerable state like this, he couldn't do it!

  He suppressed all the thoughts that shouldn't have been there and resolutely carried Mei'er towards the icy lake, where the coldness of the lake suddenly made him clear-headed!

  He felt Mei's body start to shudder, but it was still scorching hot. He had no choice but to submerge Mei's entire body in the water and reach out to tear open Mei's shoulder garment, taking out the star-shaped hidden weapon.

  "Ah!" The sudden pain made Mei'er momentarily clear-headed, and when she saw Anan's actions, she subconsciously pushed him away: "What are you doing?"

  She pushed An away and herself fell to the bottom of the lake. She knew how to swim, but at this moment, she couldn't help but swallow a big mouthful of water.

  "Mei'er!" Anan didn't care about anything else anymore and hugged her in his arms once again.

  "Let me go, let me go..." The struggling Mei'er fell into the lake, her consciousness began to blur again, and her weak hands tried to push Anan away, but instead leaned closer to him.

  "Fool, you're lucky to have met me today. If it were another man, you would've definitely fallen!" An's hand instinctively rose to touch her bright red face, and her eyes softened unconsciously.

  Mei'er continued to pull randomly, facing her like this, Shen didn't want to humiliate himself anymore. He held her dazed little face: "Mei'er, don't regret it!"

  "Mei... " At this time, Mei'er couldn't hear his words, she had lost all reason.

  But just as his hand touched Xue Er's half-piece of jade butterfly, he suddenly withdrew it as if electrocuted. He raised his hand and slapped himself a crisp slap: "What am I doing? What's the difference between this and being a beast!"

  He abruptly plunged his head into the icy lake, and after a few seconds, he lifted it again. The red glow in his eyes had receded significantly, no longer hesitant, no longer having any evil thoughts, he hugged Mei'er and continued walking towards the center of the lake.

  He had been here before, the lake water here is icy all year round, it's a natural ice lake. Before, he only thought this was a good place to practice his skills, but never thought that one day, it would become a lifesaver for her.

  For a whole half hour, Anun held Meier like a fool in the lake, until the heat on her body slowly dissipated, until she was exhausted, and finally fainted. He then carried her to a stone cave nearby.

  She reached out and touched him, the warmth of her body dissipating, and when she looked at her wet clothes again, he knew she had to change into dry ones as soon as possible, or else she would fall ill again.

  After starting a good fire with flint, he took off his own clothes from beside the saddle and prepared to change into them for Mei'er.

  This was undoubtedly another kind of torture for him, even more painful than before, it was like facing a great punishment. Earlier in the water, the icy coldness could make him sober, but now, he had to change her clothes, which meant that he had to strip off all her clothes.

  After hesitating for a long time, he finally steeled himself and put her dagger aside, thinking that if he couldn't control himself, he would cut himself with the dagger!

  He was still a gentleman after all, although the entire process of changing clothes was done with his eyes closed, but his fingertips intentionally or unintentionally brushed against her body, which still made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

  "Mei'er, I must have owed you in my past life! That's why I'm suffering this torture in this life!" After muttering to herself, she finally managed to change into the new clothes, only to discover that her body was covered in either water or sweat, and she was dripping wet again!

  Sitting aside with some regret, staring blankly at Mei's peaceful sleeping face, thinking that she is really beautiful when she is calm like this, much better than her usual irritable self.

  As he thought about it, he actually smiled. Perhaps even he himself didn't notice that at this moment, his heart was full of her! When did his heart also have room for a woman?

  It's very strange, can't figure it out...

  It wasn't until much later that Mei'er let out a soft murmur, weakly lifting her arm and subconsciously opening her eyes. The first thing she saw was An's face magnified N times, which instantly made her fully awake. She quickly sat up like before, only to discover that she had no strength in her entire body.

  "Ah!" The pain shooting up from her right shoulder made her instinctively cover it, a pained expression on her face.

  "You're finally awake!" An said, reaching out to feel her forehead, secretly letting out a sigh of relief: it's finally over!

  Heaven knows how he got through this night!

  Mei'er used her left hand to brush away his large hand, her gaze falling on the clothes hanging beside her, as well as Anan's bare shoulders. A certain scene flashed through her mind, and she pointed at Anan, furious: "You, you scoundrel! What did you do to me?" She looked down and saw that she was wearing the clothes from his bundle.

  She realized she had been secretly calculated by someone and then didn't know what happened. Good heavens, he wouldn't take advantage of her to...

  If it were so, she would have had to kill him!
