Chapter 716

"Naturally, I came here to take you away. How about we leave Great Chu and leave this world?"

"Okay, then, then you have to take my mother too!"

Hearing this, Jiang Ni, with tears in her eyes, nodded repeatedly, then sobbed and said.

"Your mother! The Color-Ranked Empress of Western Chu?"

Lin Fan was stunned. After Xu Xiao broke through the palace back then, he gave the Empress of Western Chu a white silk ribbon. Wasn't she already dead?

And wasn't the reason Cao Changqing and Jiang Ni restored the country to clear her name? How could she still be alive?

"That, my mother actually didn't die back then, she just lived under an assumed name. Even Uncle Qizhao didn't know. After I rebuilt Great Chu, she quietly came to my side,"

Jiang Ni explained hesitantly. Lin Fan saw at a glance that she was lying, but he didn't get to the bottom of it. Since Jiang Ni didn't want to say, then forget it.

"Let's go, Lin Fan, I'll take you to see my mother!"

Seemingly afraid that Lin Fan would continue to ask, Jiang Ni hurriedly got up and walked outside.

However, it seems that Jiang Ni's easy abandonment of the imperial throne of Great Chu also had a lot to do with her mother still being alive.

Jiang Ni led Lin Fan and the others to a deserted side palace. Lin Fan found that there was not a single maid or eunuch here, which was a bit like a cold palace. However, Jiang Ni was an Empress, how could a cold palace appear?

"Si'er, you're here? Who are these few?"

Jiang Ni led Lin Fan and the others to a room. Although the room was not big, it was decorated very warmly. There was a bookshelf in the northeast corner of the room, and a stunning beauty was reading by the bookshelf. Seeing Jiang Ni walk in, she smiled gently, then put down the book in her hand and asked.

"Mother, this is Lin Fan and his few confidantes."

"Greetings, Auntie!"

Lin Fan and Dongfang Bai and the others also bowed to Jiang Ni's mother.

"Young Master Tianji Lin Fan, even in this palace, I can hear your resounding fame. Along with your fame, your reputation for romance is also spread throughout the world. Now that you appear here, it shows that you and Si'er have a deep relationship. It seems that she has often been in a daze these days, and the person she is missing is you, right?"

Jiang Ni's mother signaled Lin Fan to sit down, then poured tea for Lin Fan while asking softly.

"Auntie is right. Jiang Ni and I have already made a private pledge for life. My coming to Great Chu this time is also intended to take her away!"

Although Lin Fan was somewhat embarrassed by being said so by his mother-in-law, he still admitted it frankly and stated his purpose for coming to Great Chu.

"Mother, Great Chu is already hopeless. The people don't want to start a war again, and the officials are also in Cao's camp but thinking of Han. Si'er is exhausted from dealing with them every day. Daughter wants to retreat, wants to escape. Let's leave with Lin Fan, okay?"

Jiang Ni also held her mother's hand and pleaded at this time.

"Silly child, Mother advised you long ago not to be too stubborn, and even more so not to force yourself to shoulder the burden of rebuilding Great Chu. It is not something you, a woman, can shoulder. Now that you are willing to unload this burden, that is good."

"Lin Fan, since Si'er and you have already made a private pledge for life, you must treat her well in the future, let her be happy and happy forever!"

Jiang Ni's mother first stroked Jiang Ni's face and comforted her a few words, then entrusted Lin Fan.

"Auntie, without your supervision, if Si'er is wronged, then she will have no one to confide in and stand up for her. So you come with us!"

Hearing her mother's words, Jiang Ni smiled with joy. It was good that her mother didn't oppose her giving up halfway. Lin Fan heard the wrong place, so he spoke to persuade her.

"Mother, you aren't coming with us?"

The joy on Jiang Ni's face solidified, and then she looked at her mother in a daze.

"Mother shouldn't have lived in this world anymore. When Great Chu was destroyed, I should have died. Now that the rebuilt Great Chu is also on the verge of destruction, let me follow Great Chu!"

"No, no, Lin Fan, help me persuade my mother!"

Jiang Ni had finally obtained the reward of the diary copy, which was how she resurrected her mother. She didn't want her mother to leave her again.

"Auntie, I am going to marry Jiang Ni tonight. As her only relative, you should attend. Tomorrow, tomorrow I will send you back, how about that?"

"So fast? You have a heart. However, this is also good. Being able to see Si'er get married, I can also rest assured!"

Jiang Ni's mother was somewhat surprised to hear this news, then nodded with gratification. She thought Lin Fan had deliberately advanced the wedding so that she could personally preside over Jiang Ni's wedding.

Dongfang Bai and the others looked at each other with strange expressions upon hearing this. Lin Fan was going to shatter the void and leave this world tomorrow, so how could he send her back? Jiang Ni's mother had boarded Lin Fan's pirate ship.

Although Jiang Ni didn't know that Lin Fan was going to shatter the void and leave this world tomorrow, she knew that since Lin Fan had tricked her mother away, he definitely wouldn't send her back, so she immediately became happy.

"I'll leave a letter for Uncle Qizhao. I feel very sorry for him, and I'm too embarrassed to see him again."

Jiang Ni started writing the letter as she spoke, and finally let her mother leave the six words "Safe, do not worry, take care" for Cao Changqing.

"Okay, Lin Fan, help me throw this letter to Uncle Qizhao, and then let's escape quickly before he reacts!"

Lin Fan waved his hand and summoned the crane outside the palace. Jiang Ni immediately took her mother's hand and ran to the back of the crane with joy, then handed the letter to Lin Fan.

"Let's go!"

Lin Fan patted the crane's back, and the crane immediately soared into the sky and flew toward the distance.

"Goodbye, Uncle Qizhao, I'm leaving with Lin Fan!"

When the crane passed over the city wall, Jiang Ni discovered Cao Changqing, who was still in a daze on the city wall, so she shouted at him. At the same time, Lin Fan also threw the letter toward Cao Changqing.

Cao Changqing caught the letter, but didn't open it, because his gaze was attracted by the peerless figure beside Jiang Ni. That was the Empress of Great Chu, the former Color-Ranked beauty, and also the woman he loved most.

"Lin Fan, stay behind!"

After reacting, Cao Changqing didn't care about the gap in strength between himself and Lin Fan, and directly soared into the sky, then rushed toward the crane.

However, Lin Fan just waved his hand, and Cao Changqing was beaten back to the city wall by an invisible true essence hand.

Cao Changqing could only watch helplessly as the woman he loved most disappeared before his eyes.

Subsequently, he tremblingly opened the letter in his hand, ignored the long paragraph written by Jiang Ni, and just landed on the six words "Safe, do not worry, take care" at the end, unable to recover for a long time. ===== CHAPTER 718 =====
