Really...... Ambitious. Unexpectedly, the man in front of him had a naïve time, and Lan Zhi couldn't help but hook the corners of her mouth shallowly. It can be seen that Duan Ling looked at her, she smiled again, and coughed lightly: "Hmm...... It's a pity that I left later, and you never had a chance to make your wish come true. ”

Duan Ling's fingers gently rubbed her palm: "Lan Zhi thinks I'm naïve? ”

Lan Zhi didn't answer, but exhaled a cloud of white air at the snowflakes on her knees.

Duan Ling blinked, his expression was like a child begging for praise, and he tilted his head to look at her: "But the person who avenged the Nalan clan is me." ”

Lan Zhi had been sitting curled up, but when she heard this, she subconsciously straightened her waist: "Didn't you mean...... The person who ordered the Nalan clan to be killed, was it the first emperor? ”

"That's right, it's him." Duan Ling seemed to frown sadly, but his voice was leisurely: "It is because of his powerful position that my path of revenge is not easy." ”

His gaze crossed Lan Zhi and cast it into the distance: "Today's saint is the same age as me, and I had a chance to meet in my early years. His mother was from a humble background, and he was not liked by the emperor. When I was 16 years old, I joined Huweiwei as Duan Ling and reunited with him. He knows my details, and I know his ambitions. ”

"Now that I think about it, at that time, I don't know if he deliberately recruited me, or if I took the initiative to join him." Speaking of this, Duan Ling paused for a moment, and his voice became deeper and lower: "In the next five years, I calculated and planned for him, eradicated dissidents for him, and survived with all my efforts, and it was easy to wait for that day......"

He looked at Lan Zhi, whose face was gradually solemn, but slowly burst into a smile. The man leaned closer, tilted his head in front of her, and whispered, "Lan Zhi, I have a few secrets, and I will sue you now." ”

"It is said that today's saint is ordered to succeed to the throne, but in fact, he is forcing the palace."

"It is said that the emperor died suddenly of a violent illness, but in fact, it is me...... He cut off his head with his own hands. ”

Lan Zhi suddenly heard her heartbeat for a moment, bang! Bang bang!! The lantern candlelight shone obliquely on Duan Ling's face, and the handsome face that was so handsome was unexpectedly a little bewitching at this time. The man's light brown eyes locked on her, and his thin lips opened and closed again: "That man's incomparably noble head, I will bury it under the stone tablet in the lobby......"

Lan Zhi's pupils shrank, and she suddenly withdrew her hand and covered Duan Ling's mouth. She took a deep breath and said for a moment, "Don't say it." ”

Duan Ling was still close, so he let her cover himself and look at her. Lan Zhi didn't let go: "These secrets, you should bury them in your heart until death." ”

——These are all taboo things in the saints today, but Duan Ling is clear about them. It's no wonder that he was once a confidant of the saint, but now he can only be a deputy envoy in Huweiwei. It is said that the cunning rabbit died and the lackey cooked, and it was already a miracle that the saint did not kill him as soon as he ascended the throne. He should be silent and save his life, and how can he tell a third person about these things?

He also said that the head of the former emperor was buried in the Nalan ancestral hall...... No matter how cruel and unkind the saint is today, for the sake of the face of the heavenly family, it is impossible not to leave the whole body of his father. The head of the former emperor is not known how Duan Lingtong guò got it. This kind of secret is enough to make him die a thousand times, and he even told her ......

Lan Zhi withdrew her hand and said slowly: "Today's words, I just haven't heard of them. ”

Duan Ling grabbed her fleeing hand: "Don't! The man smiled lightly: "I put this life in your hands, but you want to pretend that nothing happened?" ”

He was obviously smiling, but Lan Zhi sensed something compelling from that gaze. The two looked at each other for a moment, Lan Zhi was defeated, and turned her head: "You...... You don't have to. She cried out, "Self-...... After my father died, I thought I had no relatives in this world. Now that I know that I have your brother, I don't know how happy I am......"

She has never been accustomed to showing her feelings so bluntly, and when she said the word "brother", she unconsciously blushed slightly: "I believe everything you say to me today, and you really don't have to tell me those secrets." ”

Duan Ling seemed to be very satisfied, and let out a long "oh", but said, "Then call Brother Ju to listen?" ”

Brother? Lan Zhiyan glanced at Duan Ling, and a sense of awkwardness came to her mind again. She tried hard for a long time, but she was finally too embarrassed to speak, so she simply buried her head in her knees.

Duan Ling sighed: "I've been looking for you for more than ten years, and it's easy to recognize you, but you don't even want to call your brother, it's really sad." ”

Lan Zhi's head moved, revealing her eyes: "How do you know I'm still alive?" I haven't heard from me for so many years, and it doesn't matter where I died. ”

Duan Ling shook his head: "Impossible." He smiled and his eyebrows crooked: "King Nalan is blessed by the gods, you will not die so easily." ”

Blessed by the gods...... Lan Zhi secretly slandered this answer, but Duan Ling smiled slowly: "Ah Zhi, my secret has been told to you, what about your secret?" Should you sue me too? ”

Her secret? Lan Zhi raised her head slightly, and met Duan Ling's serious gaze. The man's voice was soft, but the question he asked was to the point: "Did you come to Haotian City to join the army, did you have another purpose?" ”

Lan Zhi was silent for a while. Originally...... Duan Ling brought her here today, and said a lot to her, just to ask this question.

He's worried about her, right? The man was thoughtful, and when he saw the carefully made sachet, he didn't know how much he thought. But...... Should she sue him for her past? Involve him in her vendettas?

Seeing that Lan Zhi didn't answer, Duan Ling suddenly took a step back and knelt down on one knee! He raised his right hand in front of his chest, bowed his head, and made the most solemn allegiance salute to Lan Zhi. Then he straightened his waist: "Nalan Ancestors are witnesses, Nalan Ling swears hereby that he will protect Nalan Zhi with his life and not let her be harmed......"

Lan Zhi was shocked! She hurriedly jumped down from the stone pillar and leaned over to drag Duan Ling: "...... Brother! What are you doing! Get up! ”

- He is ...... Kneel down to her!

At this moment, Lan Zhi suddenly understood in her heart: in Duan Ling's heart, he didn't really regard her as a sister. He said she was his king, perhaps...... It's a bit serious.

Although he scolded the Nalan family for being stupid, when he was a child, the repeated teachings of his elders and his ears and eyes had left a mark on his heart. So even if he is alone, he still has to avenge the Nalan clan; So he has been looking for her for decades and has never given up. So he said she was blessed by the gods, so he could kneel down to her......

I'm afraid that even Duan Ling himself didn't realize that the ancient Nalan family had been destroyed, but as the only survivor left, he was still clinging to the false legend.

- Duan Ling's oath is absolutely not false. Such a Duan Ling can really sacrifice his life for her.

Lan Zhi suddenly felt a wave of fear. She didn't want him to lay down his life. She had already lost her family, and she didn't want to experience that pain again in her life. Now it's easy to meet Duan Ling, a blood relative, so that she has a connection in this troubled world, not someone who has ever lost, and she won't understand how much she cherishes. On the way back, she would rather stumble and grope alone, how far she can go, which step she can do, in the end, she will not be able to kill Xiang Jinxiu, and she will never drag Duan Ling down.

Duan Ling stood up in accordance with Lan Zhi's strength, and saw the woman bow her head and lower her eyes: "Brother asked so, but because I helped Zhongyuan Xizuo deliver the news?" ”

She didn't deny what she did today, which made Duan Ling breathe a sigh of relief. He held Lan Zhi's arm instead: "Ah Zhi, you tell me the truth, are you a fine work from the Central Plains?" ”

"It's not." Lan Zhi replied decisively: "I will help Na Zhongyuan Shisaku deliver the news, just because he once helped me deliver the letter." ”

"Deliver a letter?" Duan Ling frowned: "To whom?" ”

Lan Zhi hesitated for a moment, then said, "A...... Very good friends. ”

Duan Ling squinted at her, and suddenly asked, "Is it the man you like?" ”

Lan Zhi glanced up at him, quickly averting her gaze, but did not deny it. Duan Ling got this acquiescence and sneered: "I guess." That man knows that you are strong in martial arts, and he shushes you and asks you for warmth, and he is constantly ambiguous with you. He promised you a future, but he coaxed you to come to Haotian City to join the army, just because he wanted you to do him a little favor 'by the way'. ”

The man spoke faster: "You have a strong anti-tracking ability, did he teach you on purpose?" What else did he teach you? Be calm, bold and adaptable? By the way, your identity as a hunter couldn't have been forged by him for you, right? He grabbed Lan Zhi's shoulder hard: "Ah Zhi, think about it!" If Nakahara can communicate with him, then who will he be? You're being taken advantage of! ”
