At two o'clock, Chan'er rushed to the peak of the stone wall on the east side of the Zhongnan Ancient Road. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info moon hangs high in the night sky, and the light sprinkled outlines the long figure of a man.

"I've been waiting for a long time. The man heard Chan'er's footsteps, turned to the side and stared at her, and said in a lazy voice.

"Chan Yuan has seen the eldest prince. It's rude on my face to keep you waiting. Chan'er said detachedly and politely as if she had never met Xiuxi.

Xiuxi looked at Chan'er quietly for a moment before she spoke again:

"I didn't know that Lord Chanyuan was a guest in the Demon Palace, and it was my rudeness to accidentally let you fall down the mountain stream. ”

"It's understandable that we have different positions. Chan'er said calmly.

"I am also deeply saddened by the untimely death of King Gong. This is what I mean from the heart. ”

"The praise of the belligerent side is often the greatest affirmation, and Chanyuan is proud of her father. ”

"The county lord came to see me alone, which shows the shadow of King Gong on his body. As the saying goes, 'women don't let their eyebrows'. ”

"The eldest prince is overrated. It's a situation that you and I like to see if you and I can rest and recuperate, otherwise you wouldn't be here, right?"

"You don't know me. Xiuxi chuckled and said, "If I say your guess is wrong, I want to see you just on a whim, will you turn around and leave?"

"Of course, the eldest prince may be stalling for time and planning the next step. But because of this time, I have the opportunity to change your mind. It doesn't matter who wins and who loses. Chan'er responded with a light smile.

"I appreciate the county lord's self-confidence. Since you're so honest, I might as well tell you one more thing. I knew that Hou Yuyang, who might be called Feng Yuyang, and a few others were not far from below. ”

Chan'er's eyes flashed, and she didn't say no.

He married the daughter of the Tuoba family of the Wei Kingdom, betrayed his father and made enemies of the Yi State, and appeared by Zhan Duxiao's side. At first, I thought he was sent by the Tuoba family to help the Demon Palace, but later I realized that he was your person, King Gong's person. ”

"What does the eldest prince want to say?"

"It's not just your people, my lieutenant Liuchen is also ambushing around. Besides, the night is deep and the height is cold, and this is really not a place suitable for a long conversation. The county lord might as well move, let's change to a quiet and warm place. ”

"Is there a place like this around here?"

"If so, will you answer?"

"Yes. ”

"With an opponent like Zhan Duxiao, I naturally put a lot of effort into it before the war, and I am quite familiar with the surrounding terrain. Turning over this stone wall, there is a rare hot spring in the middle of the mountain, and it is pleasant for us to sit and talk with each other by the spring. ”

"Good. ”

With the skills of Xiuxi and Chan'er, it was not difficult to avoid everyone's sight and climb over the stone wall, but when the hot spring appeared in the field of vision of the two, the hour had just passed. The closer you get to the hot springs, the warmer the air becomes.

"County Lord, please be seated. Xiuxi said, and sat on the ground by the hot spring first.

Chan'er paused, and sat down with her knees crossed.

Xiu Xi looked at the surface of the hot spring, his eyes were misty, and after a moment of silence, he said to himself:

"You've probably heard some rumors about my past. ”

"Hmm. Chan'er replied without saying much.

"I ...... It's not that I like men since I was a child. Xiuxi paused for a while before continuing, "When I was a child, I liked a girl. Once I was playing with her by the lotus pond, and she fell into the water carelessly, so I jumped into the water to save her, but I forgot at the time that I was not able to understand water, and I lost consciousness before I could save her. When I woke up, in my palace, I asked the people around me if the girl had been rescued, and no one answered me. Two days later, I learned that although she and I were rescued by the palace guards, because her falling into the water affected me, as the eldest prince, my father ordered someone to ...... Ordered someone to destroy her all over the door. I went to her desperately, and all I saw was her body...... That was the first time I witnessed a dead person. Since then, I have never been able to approach a woman other than my mother, either I don't want to, or I can't. I don't want to go through the years, but I have more and more resistance to women in my heart, and it gradually evolves into what is rumored. ”

Chan'er's original intention before coming was to start a dialogue with Xiuxi's words, waiting for an opportunity to steer the topic to peace talks, and even pointing out the "one-sided relationship" she had with Xiuxi if necessary. However, Xiuxi talked about her experience like this, which Chan'er had never thought of, and the pain in Xiuxi's words hit Chan'er's heart, reminding her of Yuan Jiutian's death, so she didn't interrupt Xiuxi, but just played the role of a listener well.

"Born in the royal family, you should also understand that human life is low, and life and death all depend on the king's words. If I want to protect the people I value, I can only try to ascend to that highest position. And Liuchen and I also have a common dream that we want to achieve. ”

Chan'er's mind suddenly echoed that Liuchen had said that everything he did, even his life, was based on Xiuxi. For Xiuxi, Liuchen must be one of the people he values very much and wants to protect.

"My father is not only my son, his concubines have their own ghosts, and the mustard in my heart and his heart is difficult to dispel, he has never made it clear who the prince is. It is not an exaggeration to say that the battle between me and the Demon Palace is about my future, since the first day of the battle, I have never planned to retreat, there must be a victory between me and Zhan Duxiao, either he dies or I die. ”

"Your competition is that you win, will you want his life?" Chan'er said with the eagerness in her eyes.

"You don't want him to die. Xiuxi looked directly at Chan'er and said.

"I don't want to have any casualties, including the people of the Demon Palace, but also yours. Chan'er said.

"But when the rest of the people die, you will only be sentimental, and Zhan Duxiao is dead, and you don't hesitate to die with him. ”

"You're right. ”

"How about we make a deal?"

"How to trade?"

"First, I won't be embarrassed for the twilight, I don't want his life. Second, I will not cause new casualties, and I will order the Yi army to withdraw from the battlefield as you wish—that's what you came to see me, isn't it?"

"If you withdraw your army, won't the position of prince you desire be in jeopardy? Chan'er didn't believe that there was anything that would make Xiuxi willing to give up the throne and choose to back down.

And Xiuxi actually smiled, and after laughing, he shot at Chan'er like lightning. Xiuxi's sudden attack caught Chan'er off guard, and because of the relationship between sitting, there was no room to retreat, with the difference in strength between the two, Chan'er was quickly defeated by Xiuxi, and was crushed by Xiuxi.

"What I want is very simple, as long as you Chanyuan County Lord leaves Zhan Dusk Night and be my woman. Xiuxi smiled wickedly and said.

"Why?" Chan'er asked, struggling.

"If it weren't for the situation, I wouldn't like to use this method......" Xiuxi sighed a little resentfully, and said almost all in breath, "That's what I said at the time." ”

"You know me......" Chan'er was shocked unconsciously.

"We're meeting for the third time tonight. The second time on the Zhongnan Ancient Road, you fell into a mountain stream with Zhan Duxiao. The first time was in a restaurant in Yiguo Border County. Do you think I wouldn't have recognized you if you hadn't taken off your veil at the time?" Xiuxi shook her head and said, "I recognize your eyes. ”

"I have saved you from the siege, and you cannot take revenge. Chan'er's words are tantamount to acquiescing in Xiuxi's words.

"But you also escaped from Dingcheng with an amber wrench. Let's get even. ”

"That'...... There is also a bright red wrench. ”

"Bright red? That's a promise that Liuchen made to you, and it has nothing to do with me. ”

"I haven't promised you a deal yet. Chan'er's heart tightened, and she struggled a few times, but she couldn't resist the strength in Xiuxi's hand at all, so she had to panic and say, "You let go of me." ”

Xiuxi grabbed Chan'er's two wrists with both hands, pressed Chan'er's hands on the ground on both sides of her body, and then said:

"Promise me and I'll give you everything you want. The two points I just said will be counted first, and I will swear by my future life. ”

"What if I don't say yes?"

"Then you can't blame me for what I asked Zhan Duxiao to do to fulfill his promise. Maybe your people and the people of the Demon Palace will all be buried with you. ”

"......" Chan'er weighed it in her heart, her eyes were faintly filled with tears, and she looked away and whispered, "I know, I promise you." ”

When Xiuxi heard this, she leaned over and kissed Chan'er, Chan'er closed her eyes, and her tears slipped down instantly, but Xiuxi's kiss did not fall for a long time.

The next moment, Xiuxi suddenly let go of Chan'er's hand, propped up her body and sat back in her previous position, and said to Chan'er:

"Don't cry, I won't touch you. ”

Chan'er opened her eyes when she heard the sound, subconsciously hugged her arms in front of her, and then sat up slowly, her eyes staring at Xiuxi's every move.

Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Chan'er's cautious appearance, Xiuxi couldn't help but smile and said:

"The last time I kissed you, I didn't see you so sad. ”

"That's different. ”

"Because there's an extra layer of green yarn?"

"Because I didn't like anyone in my heart at that time. ”

"I really envy Zhan Twilight. Xiuxi turned her gaze, looked at Chan'er, the corners of her mouth curved, and then said with a pun, "I lost." ”

"Hmm?" Chan'er didn't react for a while.

"I don't want to be your enemy, and I won't hurt you. I know he's your sweetheart, but that doesn't stop me from liking you. Xiuxi's gaze seemed to go straight into Chan'er's heart, and she murmured in a low voice, "I am willing to lose to you." ”

"You ......" Chan'er lowered her eyes and stopped talking.

"After learning about your background, I know very well that the person who the lord of Chanyuan should marry is nothing more than the kings and grandsons of other countries, and the two sides exchange benefits and take what they need. What I did just now is just to warn you that no marriage is worth sacrificing yourself to compromise, and the fate of the country and the glory of the king are not something that a mere woman can bear. Xiuxi's face was full of sincerity, and the words were full of concern, "Today is when I can't bear to do it to you, he has changed someone else, how should you deal with yourself, and how can I be embarrassed......?" The only thing I can recognize is the twilight night. ”

"Does the eldest prince have sympathy for the Lord of the Zhan Palace?"

"In fact, I was the one who lost the competition between us. Losing to him, I was convinced that he was qualified to take care of you. ”

"Your people have done ...... in it" Chan'er was slightly surprised, one was for the secrecy of Yi Jun's movements, and the other was surprised by Xiuxi's honesty.

"I asked Liuchen to use internal force to move the position of an arrow target slightly. Xiuxi nodded and said, "Otherwise, Zhan Duxiao will be twenty shots and twenty bullseyes." ”

"Since that's the case, the transaction just mentioned can't be counted. ”

"There was no such deal. Even if there is, the one who ruins the deal is the one who gives up possessing you. Xiuxi chuckled lightly and said innocentiously, "So you don't have to fulfill what you promised, I will do what I promise." ”

"I can't afford the gift of the eldest prince......"

"You don't have to be mentally burdened. On the one hand, it can be regarded as my repayment of my father's debt to you. On the other hand, if you feel that you owe me a favor, you can remember me for the rest of your life. Xiuxi smiled faintly, and said with a straight face, "There is also an objective problem, our army's food and grass can no longer last a day, they are all brothers who have followed me many years ago, and I can't watch them die." ”

"No wonder you're in a hurry to see me tonight. ”

"My country is terminally ill, and I had the heart to heal, but I couldn't do it. The wealth of Hengguo and the strength of the people are obvious to all, if the Emperor has the ability to let the people of Yi also have a peaceful and prosperous life, why should I stop it. ”

"With your benevolence and open-mindedness, if you weren't trapped in the war, you would definitely have something to do. ”

"If it weren't for the coldness of people and the sorrow of life and death behind this war, I wouldn't have been able to recognize my own heart. Instead of being dusty and rich, it is better to walk a flat boat, enjoy the weeping willows, and smile at the romance of life. ”

"It's a really chic day. ”

"I'm self-conscious, and you'll have to stay and clean up the mess. Even if I withdraw from this war, the country of Yi is still not something that can be easily shaken. Xiuxi said, remembering something, and added, "By the way, there is someone you should be more careful." ”

"What are you talking about?"

"The Fourth Prince, Xiu Yao. ”

"Fourth Prince, he is at war with the Captain of Hengguo's Light Car. ”

"Not bad. But there was much more to his mind than that. ”

"Well, I made a note of it. ”

"At this time, Liuchen should have returned to the camp to prepare. After dawn, I will personally lead the army to surrender, and they will listen only to my words. Except for me and Liuchen, I will entrust all the soldiers to you. I hope you can keep them safe. Xiuxi said solemnly.

"Don't worry, I won't disappoint you. ”

"If you have a little time, can you stay with me......? Say goodbye. ”

"Hmm, I'll stay with you and promise that you and Liuchen will return to the Demon Palace after you and Liuchen are gone. ”

"Thank you. ”

"It's my duty to thank you for the soldiers of the two armies. ”
