Chapter 1302 A Thousand Miles
Xu Nuo took a deep breath, nodded slightly, and said: "Although I haven't met Her Royal Highness Princess Wan, I know that she is the righteous daughter of the king of Dongli Kingdom, the wife and sister of Prince Beichen, and the beloved disciple of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of the Great Feng Kingdom, and she is also very good friends with Her Royal Highness Prince Ximen." In this concubine selection feast, Princess Ziyu's biggest competitor is her. Therefore, if there is her support, it is equivalent to having the support of Dongli, Xiling, Beichen and Dafeng, even if I am a good-for-nothing straw bag, and I am held by you to compete for the throne of Nanyue, it is not completely without a chance. ”
Lin Wan covered her lips and smiled, and said, "Brother Xu, if you are a straw bag, if you don't have that kind of ambition, if you don't have this capital, if you don't want peace as much as we do, how can we help you?
Xu Nuo looked at Lin Wan's gaze and finally became gentle, his expression relaxed, picked up the teacup, took a sip, slowly put down the teacup, raised his eyes to look at Lin Wan, and asked word by word: "Amu, are you Her Royal Highness Princess Wan of the Great Feudal Kingdom?"
Lin Wan didn't want to deliberately hide it, so his identity had already been revealed between the words. How smart is Xu Nuo, how could he not guess?
So, Lin Wan smiled slightly, nodded briskly and admitted, "Brother Xu, I didn't mean to lie to you, I just couldn't recognize you because of the situation." You don't blame me, do you?"
Xu Nuo smiled faintly, shook his head slowly, and said, "How could I blame you? Your identity is so special and so noble. If I were replaced, I wouldn't let others know about it easily. However, Her Royal Highness the princess is really a wonderful mind, if it weren't for you taking every step of the way and peeling off the cocoon, how could I be able to walk into the trap you laid step by step, the game you set up?"
Lin Wan was shocked in her heart, and said anxiously: "Brother Xu, I really didn't mean to lie to you, and I didn't set up any bureaus, let alone traps. It's just that I've seen your codex in your tent before, and I know that you are not willing to obey orders, and you don't want to see wars and chaos every year, and the people are miserable. I don't want the warriors to sacrifice their lives for the selfish desires of those in power. ”
Xu Nuo looked at Lin Wan quietly, looked at Lin Wan's sincere and eager gaze, and listened to Lin Wan's gushing explanations, every sentence seemed to penetrate all of Xu Nuo's defenses and reach the deep desire in his heart.
Lin Wan saw that Xu Nuo didn't speak, and her heart was even more anxious, so she suddenly became deflated, sat on the chair dejectedly, puffed out her cheeks, and snorted: "Brother Xu, if you don't agree, I won't force it, just ask you not to be angry, and call me Amu, and treat me as a friend, okay?"
Xu Nuo looked at Lin Wanchu's pitiful little appearance, with a pair of big black and bright eyes, looking at herself like that, she couldn't help but move in her heart, and secretly thought, with her identity, with her ability and power, no matter how arrogant and domineering, how willful and reckless it is understandable. However, only being obedient and humble like this is the most irresistible and irrefutable.
No wonder, even Zhou Tianqi, who is known as the black-faced god of war, and even Ximen Yuqing, who is incomprehensible, have a soft spot for her. Although Lin Wan said that she and Ximen Yuqing were just friends, even Xu Nuo could see that Ximen Yuqing was not so simple as a friend to Lin Wan.
Also, even Zhou Changying, who has a very high reputation and great influence in the Great Feudal State, and does not know about the world, also looks at her differently, accepts her as an apprentice, and loves her very much.
Before Xu Nuo met Lin Wan, he was very jealous of this princess Wan who existed like a legend in the Great Feudal Kingdom, and thought about getting rid of her. Just as Lan Ziyu wanted to get rid of Wei Qiniang, Xu Nuo also planned to kill Lin Wan'er and Zhou Tianqi to clear the obstacles for Lan Ziyu and eliminate powerful enemies for the South Yue Kingdom.
However, now Xu Nuo's thoughts have changed drastically. He didn't expect that Wei Qiniang was Amu, and he didn't expect that Amu would be Princess Wan. However, Amu is still the same Amu, the little girl who can easily move him and persuade him, or the little sister who can't be regarded as an enemy and always can't help but feel distressed.
Moreover, Miss Amu's prescription cured his mother, and he once secretly vowed that in this life, as long as Amu needed it, he would work hard to repay Miss Amu's kindness.
Lin Wan's eyes had begun to flash with tears, she stood up, walked in front of Xu Nuo, squatted down, pulled Xu Nuo's sleeve, looked up at him, pouted, and said aggrievedly: "Brother Xu, do you really not forgive me?"
Xu Nuo stared at Lin Wan's clear and crystalline eyes, and his heart was extremely entangled. This sentence of forgiveness is not so easy, how can it be easily exported?
If he compromised, he would inevitably agree to Lin Wan's request, and he would inevitably form an alliance with Lin Wan, Zhou Tianqi, Ximen Yuqing and others. Because, on the one hand, he couldn't forgive Lin Wan and continue to treat Lin Wan as a friend and sister. On the other hand, they have to be the enemy of the Great Feudal State, scheming everywhere and framing them secretly.
Lin Wan is right, Xu Nuo grew up with his mother in the people, and knows that what the people are most afraid of is war, how much harm the war has caused to the people of South Vietnam, and knows the suffering of the people. After Xu Nuo entered the barracks, although he had a relationship with Hong Qiong and was promoted quickly, he also ate and lived with the soldiers, and he also knew that the soldiers actually didn't like to fight, and they were afraid of bloodshed and sacrifice.
Whenever he saw a soldier injured or dead, Xu Nuo's heart would also hurt. Therefore, he wrote a sentence in his codex to express his contradiction and confusion. The general meaning of that sentence is that if the war is to unify the five countries, then will the unification of the five countries necessarily lead to peace?
Xu Nuo finally took a deep breath, gently helped Lin Wan up, hooked his lips slightly, nodded, and said, "Little sister doesn't have to be like this, how can I be angry with you, big brother?"
Lin Wan stood up and smiled happily: "Really? Great! Now I can rest assured, in case Lan Ziyu bullies me again, I won't be afraid." ”
Xu Nuo shook his head helplessly, stood up, and said, "Okay, little sister, it's not too early, I should go back too." Otherwise, I am afraid that it will arouse the suspicion of others, Lan Ziyu is also a smart person, you have to be careful in everything. ”
Lin Wan nodded and said solemnly: "Yes, Brother Xu, I understand." These days, I'm just staying in the back garden and won't come out. If you have anything to do with me, tell the guards at the door and ask them to bring me a message, or tell me to come out. ”
Xu Nuo smiled faintly, nodded, didn't say anything more, turned around and walked out of the pavilion.
