Chapter 8 — My Best Friends and I Go Back to Ancient Times

Murong Tuyet Niem saw her actions exposed, knelt down in front of them, and cried pitifully:

“Brother Lang Han, elder brother Minh Thua…

I just love you two so much, I can't stand the thought of you two being taken away by someone else..."

“Do you two really want to hurt me because of two unrelated bystanders?”

But her prayers cannot change forgiveness. Thinh Lang Han glanced at the dark guard, and Murong Tuyet Niem was immediately dragged away. She was thrown into Black Prison on charges of plotting to murder the Royal Highness and the defense general's wife. The miserable scream echoed for three days and three nights in Black Hell. No one knows what she went through. <Chapter 11> Nghe Phong Uyen. Outside Thinh Lang Han's bedroom, the maids and servants all had ugly faces. In the room, Thinh Lang Han woke up from his dream, propped himself up on his hands, and looked blankly at the person lying next to him, as if looking was not enough. The girl lying next to him, even sleeping quietly, made people realize that she was a beauty. It's just that her face is pale, her soft lips no longer have any color left.

“I want to sleep again…”

Thinh Lang Han lovingly stroked the tangled curls at her temples, his voice gentle:

“Wait until I get back from court, can A Nhan join me for breakfast?”

The room was quiet, there was no response. Thinh Lang Han bent down and gently kissed those pale lips, softly saying:

"If you don't answer, I assume you agree."

Then, the tall man stood up and got out of bed. As if he was afraid of alarming the person who was still "sleeping", his movements of dressing and putting on shoes were also extremely careful. Finally, he gently opened the door and left the room. My soul quietly looked at that scene. Looking at my body - which should have been in a coffin - now lying quietly on the bed. Even though I only have my soul left, I still feel cold down my spine. Unexpectedly, Thinh Lang Han, like Thinh Minh Thua... could become so crazy. A moment later, my best friend's soul also flew back to me. Her expression was even worse than when she left the Snow Pot. I said softly:

“He still refuses…”

Before I could finish speaking, my best friend understood and sadly shook his head. My best friend and I have died in this world, but Thinh Lang Han and Thinh Minh Thua still refuse to let go. Thinh Minh Thua held his best friend's body in the secret room all day, not letting anyone get close. Thinh Lang Han probably lost his mind, not believing that I was really dead, sleeping in the same bed with my body every day. Even though my best friend and I have left, we should leave Cao Thu Nhan and Cao Du Tiep of this world... one last bit of dignity. So my best friend and I asked the system for help, so that the Cao Thu Nhan and Cao Du Tiep of this world could rest in peace. Because our conquest mission was completed very well, the system happily agreed to our request. <Chapter 12> Just when the force of the Northern barbarians was growing stronger and stronger, continuously harassing the border of the Le Dynasty. To provoke the Le court, barbarian spies lurking in the capital even infiltrated the Thinh palace. When Thinh Lang Han returned from court after court, he heard news that an assassin had broken in. The assassin used a type of evil magic that people in the Le court had almost never heard of, making the secret guards in the palace unable to defeat them. Body of Cao Thu Nhan and Cao Du Tiep were both stolen. Even Thinh Minh Thua, whose relatives had experienced hundreds of wars, was knocked unconscious in the secret room. The assassin also left a provocative secret letter: These two bodies will be burned to ashes in the territory of the Le Dynasty. Thinh Lang Han and Thinh Minh Thua immediately sent people to search the entire city, but found no trace. Until the fifth watch of the night, a great fire broke out in the forest on the outskirts of the capital, alarming the entire Thinh Palace. Thinh Lang Han, who was always calm, this time rode his horse straight to the suburbs. The fire was red in the sky, reflected in his constricted pupils. He got off his horse in panic, staggered into the sea of hot flames, and called out in a loud voice:

“A Nhan…”

The guards behind quickly stopped:

“Your Majesty, please don't get excited!”

But he pushed it away, holding the long sword and slashing furiously at the fire, as if wanting to cut off the rising flames. The fire still did not decrease, he continued to slash in desperation. The intense fire seemed to want to swallow his whole body. Not long after, Thinh Minh Thua also rode a horse to chase. He experienced hundreds of battles, and in just a few moments, he cut down several pieces of fire. The dark guards also simultaneously took action to put out the fire. Not knowing how much time passed, the fire was finally extinguished. Thinh Lang Han stood in front of a pile of black ash, absent-mindedly watching the thin smoke rise and gradually dissipate. This place... seems to have no life left. The corner of his shirt was burned by fire, his face and body were covered with black ash, extremely disheveled. The thing that made him most desperate was... when the ash and dust dissipated, a white jade plate gradually appeared in the pile of ashes, symbolizing the identity of the Royal Concubine. He looked bewildered at the jade plate that was almost burned and deformed, his soul seemed to be withdrawn from his body. The dark guard next to him had never seen his master like that before and sadly reminded:

“The royal concubine and the general's wife… probably…”

But Thinh Lang Han didn't seem to hear anything. He mechanically dug through the ash in front of him, as if looking for something. Finally, he dug up a black iron brooch and carefully wiped away the ash with his sleeve. He muttered like a lost soul:

"A Nhan once said, if the brooch is still there, the person is still alive..."

"She must still be angry with me, intentionally running away to make me impatient..."

"But I was afraid that I would think she was really gone, so I left the brooch here..."

Thinh Minh Thua also woke up and said awkwardly:

“Maybe… they were hidden by barbarians!”

“I will immediately ask for a decree, level the barbarian land, and save Tieu Tiep!”
