CHAPTER 59
"Where are you going?" Early in the morning, Qiu Ying was about to knock on the door with breakfast, but the door opened, and Xiyan came out, dressed in black men's clothes. When she saw the Autumn Warbler, she just paused, glanced at her, and then walked towards the east end of the cloister without saying a word. Qiu Ying was frightened by her glance, her eyes were all as cold as ice, not at all the side concubine she was familiar with, what happened to the side concubine? Could something have happened? She looked at Xiyan's back worriedly, her slender figure was wrapped in black clothes, walking so quickly, where are you going?
Lei Yao's leg injury had already healed a lot, and he got up early in the morning and walked around the house with a brace. Gotta get well soon. He knew very well that the calm was temporary, and he couldn't tell when the smoke of gunfire would rise again, and Zhou Guo would never be bound by anything like an agreement. He couldn't wait for the wound to heal, and he couldn't wait.
With a "bang", the door was kicked open from the outside, interrupting his thoughts. When he looked up, he saw Xi Yan dressed in black men's clothes, standing in front of him with a condensed face, looking directly at him with cold eyes. He looked at her in amazement, not understanding what was going on.
"You, what's the matter?" he asked gently.
"It's okay and won't come to you. Her tone was just as cold. Yesterday I saw that she had smashed the medicine he had sent, and he was still wondering if her injuries mattered. Today, she came first, without warning, and there was a bit of a murderous aura.
"Then you may be seated. He stepped out of the way and invited her to sit at the table.
"No need. She simply refused. "I'll say a few words and leave. ”
"Please. Her look made Lei Yao also put away the politeness on his face. He never imagined that she would one day appear in such a guise.
"In the war with the Zhou State, you must win, do you know this?" she got straight to the point. The delicate face is as expressionless as a stone carving.
"Why?" Lei Yao also turned up.
"Because if you lose, you'll never have a chance to achieve your ambitions again. Her gaze pierced through his eyes, piercing the worries in his heart. "Someone who falls twice in the same place, who will make you roll over. Her words were scathing and unbearable, and even if she was as good-tempered as his, she couldn't help but be a little annoyed.
"That's what you're here to say?" he was silent, looking at her.
"Also, if you win, you have to go back alive, otherwise, my sister won't survive. She said lightly.
"I see. His mouth moved, and he met her cold gaze, but finally did not say anything more.
"I don't want you to know, I want you to do it, to work hard, I risk the danger to save you back, I don't want you to lead the remnants of the defeated army back to hand over. His unwavering anger ignited in her heart. Does he know his situation, why is he always so calm and gentle?
And he, only noticed that she said that she saved him back, and it was Xiyan who saved her. So, the woman at the bottom of the cliff was her, the woman who climbed down alone from a height, the woman who spent a day alone with him, the woman who fed him medicine, and the woman who dragged him with a rope desperately to drag him who was injured. He looked at Xiyan in shock. If others knew about it, she wouldn't have a good life after she returned to the palace. The open and secret battles in the palace, he couldn't be clearer. Why did she do this? For the sake of Chaoyan?
"Don't look at me like that. Xi said expressionlessly, "If you are really worried about the price I will have to pay to save you, then you should find a way to win the battle." ”
"Why?" his gaze was obsessive. He wanted to know the answer.
"For my sister. The answer they could all think of.
"That's it?" he said softly, he didn't believe it was that simple, and he intuitively felt that it wasn't a reason for her to do so.
"Can it be done?" she asked. The expression is serious.
"I'll try. There was more faith in her eyes than doubt, and what he couldn't read. Hearing his answer, she seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and her gaze was not as sharp as just now.
"Good. If you are worried, I will find a way to help you solve it. She said meaningfully. After that, he turned around and walked out. The bright sunlight poured in from where she had gone out, and Lei Yao's brow gradually tightened. Yes, he has to win, he has to win. He gripped the pole tightly in his hand.
Yan Tianmu was shooting arrows in the backyard. Thinking about last night. She was in a bad mood, something he had never seen before. He was a little afraid, afraid of something, he couldn't say it, he was afraid that she would break the contract, or was he afraid that he would never see the smile and hug she had given again? He thought too deeply that he didn't notice that Xi Yan was standing behind him. He turned back to get the arrow in the quiver, only to see her standing there with a serious face. She used to wear bright or light colors, but he never found that she was more suitable for black, black would bring out her jade-like skin, giving her a man-like heroism, different from a woman's coquettishness, and another style that was more exciting. He stared blankly, and only she was left in his eyes.
She smiled suddenly, like the mountain snow water that has been melted by the sun, with a cold beauty.
"What?" she slowly walked over to him and stood still, her hands behind her back, looking up at him slightly. There is a soft scenery in the eyes.
"If you want to drive me crazy, congratulations. He smiled softly, with love. He was going to hide her so that no one could touch a finger of her.
"I promise you. She lifted her lips lightly and said clearly.
"What?" her sudden words made Yan Tianmu almost think that he had misheard, "What did you say?" he wanted to be sure.
"I promise you. Her submissive repetition. Look him in the eye and look for what he wants.
Yan Tianmu lowered his head to calm his fierce heartbeat, and forced back the smile that had overflowed, before he looked at her with a smile, "What do you need me to do for you?" She agreed to the deal between them, and the joy she promised was changed by the word transaction, he should have been happy, because he proposed it, but now, he was reluctant, yes, reluctantly, what did the deal come from? Is it something he wants?
"Yes, I want you to help me. Xiyan said frankly. Her smile now looked unbearable. No, that's not what he wants.
"I see. Then I have to come up with new conditions. Otherwise, I won't help you. ”
"You say. She wasn't surprised.
"I'll look for you at night, and you'll know when the time comes. He looked at her deeply.
"I'll wait for you. She nodded, "Then you go ahead." She pointed to the arrow and walked away.
Back in the house, she sighed, sat down on the bed, pulled off her clothes, and the wound was already scabbed. She straightened her clothes and lay down.
