Where prosperity ends, flowers never end

Chapter 191 Humble

After running for an unknown amount of time, Ran Qianxi was chased into the downtown area. She fled in a panic without even looking at the road and accidentally bumped into someone while running.

She cried out and looked up, the person in front of her was an abyss she could never have imagined in her dreams.

Tan Qianhuan was still immersed in surprise. He had been searching for her all over the country for months and could not believe that she would run into his arms like this.

The soldier had caught up, and Ran Qianxi subconsciously hid behind him. He instantly seemed to have been forgiven.

"Don't be afraid, Xi'er."

Looking at the Nanyue officers and soldiers in front of him, Tan Qianhuan's fierceness once again filled Ran Qianxi with a sense of familiarity from his previous life.

Looking at his extraordinary temperament, the soldiers stopped tactfully.

"Why did they arrest you?"

Tan Qianhuan smiled and looked back, and Ran Qianxi's heart was moved again and again when she faced him.

She slapped her forehead with a slapping sound, and Tan Qianhuan immediately held her hand nervously.

"Xi'er?"

"I can't go back with him. I have to protect you if you can, and I have to protect you if you can't."

Tan Qianhuan smiled faintly and stroked the hair on her forehead. Even if he had to sacrifice his own life, he would ensure that she was safe and happy.

"I can protect it."

The familiar feeling knocked on Ran Qianxi's heart. Looking at her former lover, she seemed to have returned to her previous life.

"Thank you...ah..."

Tan Qianhuan turned around suddenly and didn't hear clearly what she was saying.

"What did Xier say?"

Ran Qianxi struggled for a moment, but still didn't say thank you Ahuan.

"nothing…"

Tan Qianhuan smiled and touched her head.

"Don't worry, Xi'er."

During the conversation, Shi Zhun came over calmly and their eyes met.

He asked in confusion, "You are here too?"

Tan Qianhuan took a step forward, and the tense atmosphere was filled with a sense of mutual sympathy.

"Why are you chasing her?"

Shi Zhun glanced at Ran Qianxi, still not understanding the relationship between the two.

"She's my wife."

When Tan Qianhuan heard the word "wife", he felt scared. Could he not escape the regretful ending?

"No, I didn't marry him."

When Tan Qianhuan heard Ran Qianxi's denial, hope was rekindled in his heart.

"I was having fun playing around, and then I took his eldest son to get treatment. When I first entered the palace, a national teacher said that I was destined to be a queen and could benefit the people. He used coercion and inducement to make me marry him, just like you did."

It was not surprising that the national teacher calculated Ran Qianxi's fate, as she was originally the queen of Dachang. But when he heard the words "coercion and inducement", Tan Qianhuan instantly lost his composure.

"How did he force you?"

"You put me under house arrest under the pretext of rest."

Due to the relationship between the two, Tan Qianhuan did not make trouble. After all, it was he who took Ran Qianxi to escape from the Jibei Palace.

"Xi'er is my beloved."

Hearing an answer that was different from the past, Ran Qianxi pricked up her ears instantly. In this life, he was the first to admit the relationship.

Shi Zhun smiled lightly and showed no hostility. He took a step forward and said, "I am the same."

"I don't want things to get awkward between us."

Faced with Tan Qianhuan's warning, Shi Zhun seemed to have the fighting spirit.

"I am the same."

Tan Qianhuan glanced back gently and saw Ran Qianxi carefully pulling her belt. As long as he took her away today, their relationship would not be able to continue no matter what.

"Xi'er, do you want to go with me?"

Ran Qianxi couldn't tell from his complicated emotions and answered him without thinking.

"Of course I do!"

Tan Qianhuan smiled and picked her up.

"Give Way."

Shi Zhun naturally didn't want to give way, so he stared into his eyes seriously and asked.

"Have you thought about it?"

There was a tenacious sharpness in Tan Qianhuan's eyes, and Shi Zhun had already gained an irreparable friendship between the two.

"Three counts. If you don't let me, I'll kill you from here to the city gate!"

A last trace of friendship flashed in Shi Zhun's eyes, and he smiled gently and ordered people to make way.

"let."

The soldiers made way for the road in an orderly manner, breaking the silence in the city.

Tan Qianhuan held her in his arms and walked out of the city gate steadily, step by step, without anyone stepping forward to stop them.

Shi Zhun looked up and saw that it was too late for the two of them to recover.

"Remember his appearance, and kill him if you see him again."

The soldiers knelt down and saluted.

"Yes!"

Tan Qianhuan had already carried her out of the city. He didn't dare say a word along the way. He held her reluctantly in his arms for fear of hurting her, but she was hesitant and wanted to get off.

"I can walk by myself..."

Hearing the person in his arms speak, Tan Qianhuan hesitated for a moment, but finally stopped and put her on the ground.

"It's just... I still know how to be polite... Thank you..."

After she finished speaking, she was about to leave, but she took just one step when she was stopped by Tan Qianhuan. She immediately turned around and looked at Tan Qianhuan awkwardly, her tone full of panic and helplessness.

"What do you want to do?"

Looking at her frightened eyes, Tan Qianhuan felt as if his head was being crushed by a huge rock.

"I... have been looking for you for a long time..."

Ran Qianxi quickly took a step back, and all the memories of her past life came to her mind again. The feeling of powerlessness was like a new life. She had no idea how to face him or respond to him.

"Where are you going next?"

Ran Qianxi pursed her lips nervously, her eyes seeming to express a complex hatred.

"I'll walk around, you go back first."

Tan Qianhuan took another step forward and grabbed her, but she ruthlessly pushed him away again.

"Your Majesty, maybe we had something in the past, but I have forgotten it now. Please don't pester me and make you misunderstand that I apologize to you."

Tan Qianhuan's eyes turned red again without him noticing, and he blocked her way again, begging her.

"I know I was wrong, Xier, please don't leave like this."

Ran Qianxi laughed sadly a few times.

"Know what's wrong? What can you know? Do you know what will happen to us in the future?!"

"I know, I know everything, I will never force you in this life."

Ran Qianxi smiled helplessly. She would not believe that Tan Qianhuan knew everything and just thought that he was just saying nice words to coax her.

"So what are you doing now? Not forcing me?"

Ran Qianxi hit the nail on the head. He was blocking her way and forcing her to stay, forcing her to follow his footsteps and make a choice.

"I am leaving here now. Please, Your Majesty, have mercy on me."

The four words "Please have mercy" hurt him so much that he lost the courage to try to keep her.

The autumn breeze was blowing in the forest, and although Ran Qianxi seemed to be heading towards Yangzhou, she was actually waiting for the opportunity for Tan Qianhuan to leave.

Before they reached the border town of Nanyue, dozens of kidnappers jumped out to block the road, each with a knife at waist and looking ferocious.

Ran Qianxi looked around blankly and found that she had indeed deviated from the official road.

"Tsk!"

Tan Qianhuan was still standing there, feeling extremely sad, when Ran Qianxi tactfully ran back...

He was panting in less than two miles, his voice was out of breath, and his mood changed instantly.

"Hey? You haven't left yet, what a coincidence..."

Just as the long knife was about to chop down, she successfully grabbed Tan Qianhuan's sleeve.

At the critical moment, Tan Qianhuan broke off a branch and knocked the long knife out of the kidnapper's hand with one move, without moving an inch.

Ran Qianxi's whole body was filled with shock. Before she could catch her breath, she panted and clasped her hands.

"I will repay you for saving my life..."

Seeing that someone stood up for her, the kidnappers lined up in an orderly manner.

Ran Qianxi hid behind Tan Qianhuan with a serious look and pulled up his belt skillfully.

Tan Qianhuan was instantly filled with joy and turned around to see Ran Qianxi's expression, but she was still trying to catch her breath...

"Oh my god... I'm running so fast... I've never run so fast in my life..."

Tan Qianhuan smiled with relief, his beloved woman seemed to rely on him again.

"I see you're also a martial artist. Hand over the money and the girl, and I'll spare your life."

When the bandit leader spoke, his brothers burst into disgusting laughter.

"Haha, yeah..."

"Hand over the girl."

"Yes, hand over the girl!"

Ran Qianxi's breathing had returned to normal frequency. Tan Qianhuan looked at the mob in front of him sinisterly. Without saying a word, he kicked the knife on the ground and directly pierced the leader's body.

"mother…"

Ran Qianxi's surprise became more and more serious. The kidnappers were in chaos and raised their knives to defend themselves.

Tan Qianhuan raised the branch with her bare hand and threw it, piercing another person's throat!

"Oh my god, so fierce?"

Ran Qianxi was hiding behind him and was dumbfounded.

Only after their two brothers fell did the kidnappers realize the seriousness of the situation and that the person in front of them was unfathomable. They all dropped their knives and fled!

The kidnappers disappeared without a trace. Tan Qianhuan turned around suddenly, and Ran Qianxi swallowed in fear.

"Your Majesty is mighty..."

"Are you still running?"

Hearing the familiar lines, Ran Qianxi once again recalled the powerlessness and heaviness he felt back then, but his tone in this life was obviously much gentler and more nostalgic.

Ran Qianxi smiled guiltily. If she wanted to stop him from running away, she would have to erase her memories of her previous life.

"Why should I run? I didn't run..."

Tan Qianhuan instantly realized that there was something wrong with this sentence and explained it immediately without thinking.

"I don't mean to force you. I mean I'll go wherever Xi'er goes. You're not safe on your own."

Ran Qianxi smiled gently and slowly moved closer, leaving Tan Qianhuan confused for a moment.

"Tsk, that's so humble."

Ran Qianxi smiled and left, and Tan Qianhuan followed immediately.

"The road is not safe, so I will reluctantly take you with me."

Hearing the arrogant words, Tan Qianhuan did not feel disgusted, but was secretly delighted.

"Your Highness, do you have no official business to attend to? If you don't come back for a long time, what will happen to the treasures in the mansion?"

"You are the only thing that matters."

The two of them walked and looked at the scenery. Ran Qianxi sneered and looked back at him.

“That’s really humble.”
