Chapter 287 - 282: Heroine and Demoness
"Greetings to Your Majesty and noble concubine!" Ye Qiu performed a Jianghu-style salute to the two, but no one cared, and Ji Heng waved to dismiss the Imperial Army and attendants.
"Your Majesty?" The eunuch was still somewhat skeptical, fearing that these two strangers might harm the Emperor.
"Leave us."
"Yes!" No one dared to persuade further, and as the eunuch left, he risked a bold glance at Ji Nan, his heart stirring like a stormy sea.
"Is it really my Nannan?" Wuyang stepped forward with tear-blurred eyes, reaching out to touch Ji Nan’s face, yet fearing it was all a dream.
"What is your name?" Ji Heng asked in a deep voice; the normally perceptive and valorous Emperor’s voice trembled slightly.
Ji Nan was overwhelmed with emotions, having thought he was just a pawn of the Demon Sect, never imagining his parents had not intentionally abandoned him.
"My name is Ji Nan."
As soon as he said this, the noble concubine who had been holding back tears could no longer restrain her sorrow: "Nannan, it truly is my Nannan!"
Ji Heng supported his beloved princess, gazing at Ji Nan with eyes full of hope: "Who named you?"
"I don’t know, the teacher at the Nursery Hall said I only knew the name Ji Nan when he found me."
"Then why did you come to the Imperial Palace?"
