Chapter 39 (34)

Jiang Liechen sneered and said, "So you will have a bad time with her and parted with her? I thought that in front of Concubine Yun, you will always be just a dog that wags your tail and is happy? This woman, Nangong Xue, is really that important to you?" Until he mocked him enough, he flicked his sleeves and said coldly, "You are just nonsense. Even you don't want to be with her. I am a demon now, so how can I be interested in paying attention to the struggles in the world?"&1t;/p>

Li Yijie praised: "Okay! The third requirement is that in order to prove that we and Concubine Yun are completely incompatible, why not quell the war in the lower gates and ruin her plan. She is frustrated when she fails, how about it?"&1t;/p>

Jiang Liechen only took a moment and immediately understood what he wanted. He sneered: "You just want to use me to resolve the border siege on your behalf, right?" Li Yijie said: "I'm right. But we have a word first. No matter how ridiculous the request is, you have to agree. Whether it is a human or a god or a demon, you can't speak without trust."&1t;/p>

Jiang Liechen didn't think much and said decisively: "Well, I'm not helping you, even if I take the opportunity to conquer the Gentiles. Once this matter is finished, it will be your death."&1t;/p>

Li Yijie said: "No problem, you can choose the time and place, and I will accompany you at any time. Is this fair enough?" Jiang Liechen sneered and said: "Very good! You can go and have fun first, don't leave any regrets. These three requirements can satisfy you, and it will be your death talisman!" The sleeves of the robe brushed over, and a red light flashed, just like Tathagata, disappeared in front of the two of them.&1t;/p>

Li Yijie was still standing still, his fists tightened and loosened, just as he was making a bet, and no one knew the result until the end. Now it seems that he actually won the bet with extremely small chips, which he couldn't help but dislike.&1t;/p>

The owner of the Xia Manor, who was beside him, glaring at him, "Yijie, you are too reckless. Are you sure to agree to such conditions?" Although he was in a questioning tone, he wanted to change it directly to "You are not sure".&1t;/p>

Li Yijie smiled bitterly and said, "No, to be honest, just as the original owner said, he and I are destined to be the enemy of fate. Even if we don't have a chance of winning, we still have to fight to the death with him. At the same time, as the leader of the martial arts world, I have the responsibility to protect the people of the world. Since this battle is a matter of time sooner or later, it is better to let it come earlier. Besides, there are all kinds of strange things in the world, and there will always be unexpected miracles, and I have not necessarily lost."&1t;/p>

The owner of the Xia Zhuang said annoyedly: "You are crazy! A mortal actually wants to beat the demon, which is simply a delusion!" He kept muttering again and again, all of whom were blaming him for making stupid decisions.&1t;/p>

Li Yijie stood up, pretended to be happy, and said, "Let's just put the formation matter a few days. Look, you said I was not studying hard, and I really got it. But, I didn't get anything. Your life was saved by me just now. The debt was not cleared, and you owe a new favor in a blink of an eye. You know, I am very greedy and will never let others owe me any faults. Even if you wait for me, I will definitely come alive to get the reward you have. And, the final choice... I believe your answer will not disappoint me." He showed an indifferent smile, jumped down from the roof, and several ups and downs, but disappeared.&1t;/p>

The owner of the Xia Manor was independent for a long time. Thinking of his last explanation, he sighed and said, "Yijie, Yijie, what kind of problems did you leave me?"&1t;/p>

—————&1t;/p>

At this time, Prince Fu's mansion was still in peace before the storm. Cheng Jiaxuan's injuries had healed most of her injuries. In addition to having bandages on her face, she could move freely in the mansion.&1t;/p>

It was the quiet night after the rain, the bright moon was hanging high, and the night was as cool as water. Cheng Jiaxuan sat alone on the steps in the courtyard, looking up at the starry sky, her eyes were blank and wandering, as ethereal as her future. She hugged her legs tightly and put her bandaged chin close to her knees, feeling a chill, and another sadness that was like a shadow, surrounding her left and right.&1t;/p>

The courtyard is connected to the house. Shangguan Yaohua walked in from the main entrance, glanced at his stunned sister, put a bowl of dark black soup on the table, and said, "I haven't slept so late? That's the tonic prescribed by the doctor. Although your body has improved a lot, you still have to remember to recuperate. Remember to drink it later, I'll go back to the room first."&1t;/p>

Cheng Jiaxuan suddenly turned her head, looking so frightened that she was almost a little frightened, and called out: "Brother, don't leave first! I...I can't sleep, I'm so lonely alone, can you sit with me? It's enough for a while, I won't bother you for too long..."&1t;/p>

Shangguan Yaohua looked at her with a pitiful and desperate expression, which was obviously used to being neglected by people. He even spoke in fear and fear. He sighed and said, "What are you shy? I didn't say that." He walked to Cheng Jiaxuan and sat down silently. A little coolness came from the stone steps paved with bluestone. Then he took off his coat and put it on Cheng Jiaxuan's back, and explained with a little stiffness: "It's strong at night, be careful not to catch a cold."&1t;/p>

Just this small action made Cheng Jiaxuan's face fluttering with excitement. She looked at the moon for a while, and then looked at him with an intoxicated face, saying, "How many years have we not seen the night sky together? I remember that there was such a spacious courtyard in the Chen family before. The two of us, along with Xiangxiang's cousin, sat side by side in the courtyard to watch the stars, catch fireflies, and tell stories... We always make trouble until late at night, chase and fight in the courtyard, and finally got tired of making trouble.

, lying on the ground to rest, smelling the fragrance of flowers on all sides, gradually fell asleep. When the next morning, when the first ray of sunshine shone on my face, there would always be a quilt on my body... It was really the happiest time. I just regret that the times changed, and our identities could no longer be like the simple brothers and sisters in the past, and we had their own positions and were together for a long time... Now I am willing to sacrifice everything, just to return to the carefree years."&1t;/p>

Shangguan Yaohua's face suddenly darkened and he said impatiently: "You are planning to live in memories forever? You know that time cannot go back, but you are still having some unrealistic dreams. You have grown up and are no longer a child who only knows how to imagine. You should be able to distinguish between reality and illusion."&1t;/p>

Cheng Jiaxuan looked at Shangguan Yaohua's side face in admiration, secretly glad that she could finally look at him rightfully without misunderstanding and contempt. But when his vision deviates, she panics again, afraid that her little thoughts will be seen through him. She hurriedly pointed to the sky and said, "Look, what a beautiful night. The moon is so round and so big. This is not the fifteenth, but she can see such a beautiful moon..."&1t;/p>

Shangguan Yaohua said impatiently: "The moon is always full and sometimes waning, what's so strange?" He secretly felt that not going to read military books this night, but fell to her watching the moon.&1t;/p>

Cheng Jiaxuan whispered: "It's like life, things are not satisfactory, right? But even though we know that something is beautiful, why can't we always stay at the moment when it blooms? Why do everyone like to interfere in other people's lives, and always have enough means to make their lives messy? We are just floating in pain, talking to each other, encouraging words, struggling hard... In the end, no one can defeat fate. Such a life is just a dream of oneself, a play in the eyes of others. What's the value?"&1t;/p>

Shangguan Yaohua snorted and said, "Stop pretending to be deep. What I don't like most is to say something about experiencing life, as if he had really seen through the mystery of the world and had a great enlightenment. Only when he saw the tip of the iceberg, he thought he could see the whole picture, which was really ridiculous. He had only lived in the world for a few decades? He could see through the world that had been passed down for more than a thousand years? He was originally a person of a person and a wise man, but he insisted on saying a precise point, as if others were fools, fighting for a little profit. If he was a truly smart person, would he have escaped the shackles of fate? No! He was still struggling like millions of fools. That was a shame for spring and autumn, it was an excuse for not being enterprising! I don't want you to be together with such people."&1t;/p>

Cheng Jiaxuan stared at her clear eyes, but her heart shrank into a ball, and she snuggled up to him timidly, with tears rolling in her eyes, and said, "Brother, don't treat me well? Since childhood, I have been most afraid of others being mean to me. Once you are angry with me, I think I said the wrong thing again and did something wrong, I will scold myself to death. I will lock myself in the room alone, not eating or drinking all day and night until you forgive me..."&1t;/p>

Shangguan Yaohua remembered that it was true when they were young. Cheng Jiaxuan relied on her youngest daughter, and every time she caused trouble, she would act coquettishly so that her brother and cousin would forgive her. Shangguan Yaohua now has a very gloomy temper and would never tolerate others. Seeing that Cheng Jiaxuan's injuries have not yet healed, she did not care about her and said with a wry smile: "Okay, I won't say it. You are a porcelain doll that you can't touch."&1t;/p>

Cheng Jiaxuan instantly found some warmth of the two of them being together when they were young. She cried and laughed, and she burst into tears with excitement, saying, "Brother, are you really willing to admit me? These days, I always feel that it seems like a dream is unreal, and the clearest thing in my mind is when you refuse me coldly. I am afraid that I am talking nonsense with a high fever, and when I remove these bandages, I will find that all this is my random thoughts. I am still sitting alone in a corner, and you will push me away again..."&1t;/p>

Shangguan Yaohua frowned, and was already displeased, saying, "If some things are destined to be yours, even if you watch them fly away from you with your own eyes, they will still belong to you in the end. If it weren't for yours, no matter you try your best to grab them, you will not taste any sweetness. In fact, it's not very meaningful." Cheng Jiaxuan sighed and felt sad again.&1t;/p>

Shangguan Yaohua glanced at her and saw her oblique bangs sticking softly to her ears. The breeze blew gently, swaying slightly like grass on the field, making her look even more weak and pitiful.&1t;/p>

But after years of hardship, he is as strong as a rock, but he will never be soft-hearted to anyone. Regardless of whether this is cruel or not, he said, "And you can't escape for the rest of your life, right? Recently, your injury has improved. When your adoptive father talks with me, he also asked a few times, just urging you to leave as soon as possible. You know, even if he formed an alliance with the Regent, he would not want to raise his daughter for him for nothing. Not only my adoptive father, except for the overly enthusiastic fool like Li Yijie, few people will do things for others regardless of the reward. Where are you going in the future?"&1t;/p>

Cheng Jiaxuan was shocked and realized that her brother was actually giving an order to expel him. She suddenly became panicked and her voice trembled, saying, "Brother, do you... do you want to drive me away?" Shangguan Yaohua said patiently, "It's not that you drive you away, but you can't always stay here. I am also relying on others, and I will sway around with a swaying bottle. Do you think I don't have enough handles, right?"&1t;/p>

Cheng Jiaxuan was so anxious that she was incoherent that she wanted to say that she never wanted to implicate her brother, but since this matter was done, it would be useless to argue. She said sadly: "Concubine Yun annoyed that I betrayed her and wanted my life, just like Miss Luo Jin in the past. I wanted to Yinxue Palace, but I couldn't go back. As for the Regent, he and Concubine Yun had formed an alliance, and I no longer needed me to find out the news. The adopted daughter is just a name that is not worth a penny. My true identity is just his chess piece. Now that the chess piece has become an abandoned piece, where can I go? Brother, you know that I have nowhere to go. Or, discuss with Prince Fu and ask him to promise me to stay? I won't eat and drink for nothing, I can do some chores for him and do some rough work in the mansion..."&1t;/p>
