"Concubine Yue is inextricably linked with the Wu Clan, and you must know very well what she is coming about. Not to mention that Zheng Yu is about to become pro-government, but there are still a few years left, and the outcome of your confrontation with them will be harmful to you. If you fail, not only will you be ruined, but all the things you have done for Donghe will be wiped out, and the situation you least want will eventually tear open bloody wounds in front of you. ”

"And if you win, the more noble concubines will bring disaster to the country and the people, they will inevitably be executed, so where do you put the emperor? After all, they are mother and son whose blood is thicker than water, even if he relies on you again, you are also his mother-killing enemy! Will he trust you again? When the time comes, he leads the army to seize power, and the war breaks out again, what will the people think? He looked up at her, his gaze dark.

Ning Yan took two steps back, her glass-colored eyes full of panic: "Huo Ying is right, you are really cold-blooded!" Who wouldn't watch the fire from across the river? So? So that I don't fall into ruin? For this end, whether it is victory or defeat, I am powerless, and I have to leave it alone? ”

"A-Ning, calm down!" He turned his wheelchair and stepped forward to take her hand.

"How do I calm down?" She angrily shook off his hand.

"You don't have to be in this world! Donghe doesn't have to be you! With or without you, fortunately or unfortunately, they will all live! This is fate! It's not something you should be carrying! Gu Mingxuan's always calm mask was finally torn, and his eyes became hot.

"Don't you think...... Are you selfish? ”

"Yes! I don't have your fraternity! I can't help the world, I can only do it alone! But at least I have you in my selfishness, and in your future, will I have me? His two thin white lips spat out sharp words, "What I can't do, do you think you can?" How many people in the world do you think will be grateful to you? After experiencing the blessing of Hokke Temple, don't you still see clearly? ”

Ning Yan wiped away the tears on her face and sneered: "If there is no one who is grateful, you don't need to worry about the mountain master, you can go back to your Guilan Mountain to be your free mountain master, Donghe's affairs, my affairs don't need you to bother!" With that, she turned and walked out the door, panicking with every step, as if she was running away from something, crackling and crashing into something along the way.

When he was about to walk out of the door, Gu Mingxuan suddenly spoke: "Do you know that Zheng Yu likes you?" ”

Ning Yan suddenly felt as if she had been nailed to the ground, she couldn't lift her legs, and the feeling of suffocation swept over. She bit her lip and reluctantly said, "I know." ”

There was a vague smile from behind, and the laughter made her panic, and she had to leave Tianyishui Pavilion as if she was running away.

In the corridor, he met Lu Li who came in a hurry. "Aning, are you okay?"

Ning Yan wiped her tears, shook her head and said, "It's okay, what about you?" Can I help you? ”

"News came from Nambu that Xiao Rin was assassinated while touring the east and disappeared in Nambu Donghe border. It is very likely that the assassin is the old department of the Three Princes. ”

"Missing?" Ning Yan frowned.

"Yes, Nanwu is now in a mess, and the forces that were suppressed by Xiao Rin before have begun to move again. Now everyone is watching your movements, after all, after the battle of Yuesanguan, you and Xiao Rin have a lot of relationship in the eyes of the world. ”

"Okay, I see." Ning Yan nodded expressionlessly, "You...... Take a look at Ah Xuan......"

"What's wrong with you?" He was a little surprised, "Quarrelsome?" ”

Ning Yan took a deep breath, didn't say anything, and hurried past him. Leaving a confused Lu Li, he slowly walked into the room. It was a mess to the eye, with tables, chairs and benches lying all over the place, and a plate of black and white jade scattered on the ground.

The man in white in a wheelchair alone in the center of the room, holding his head with his hands, didn't know what he was thinking. The light of heaven poured down from the skylight of the roof and sprinkled on him, and it was unusually sad in the light and darkness.

"She's gone?"

"Hmm...... Let's go. Lu Li walked over with light steps, "What's wrong?" ”

"I told her to get out as soon as possible, and she didn't agree." There was a heavy exhaustion and weakness in his voice.

Lu Li smiled helplessly: "A-Ning has been like this since he was a child, and he can't pull back the eight cows that he has identified." Don't be serious with her. ”

Gu Mingxuan rubbed his eyebrows and smiled bitterly: "Why don't I know her personality?" But what I'm afraid of is that I can't protect her forever. ”

Lu Li sighed and was silent.

The cripples of her legs are her death holes, why not his? It's like a thorn, firmly rooted in the softest place in each other's hearts, and may not be pulled out until death. If you move, you will bleed. He told himself thousands of times of relief, but he never could withstand her reassuring eyes. Fortunately and unfortunately, I have experienced too much in this life. In the end, can you still hold the hand of your son and grow old with your son?

Not long ago, he saw Shizun, and the white-haired old man who had been determined to sever the master-apprentice relationship with him rushed to Guilanshan for a long time, just to bring him out of the Ghost Gate. He burst into tears, saying that he knew that his most proud apprentice would be trapped in love for the rest of his life, so he might not have let him go down the mountain in the first place. But mortals can never guess what is going on in the world.

He smiled lightly and said: "Death and life are all one person, and they do not live in vain." ”

He doesn't have any regrets, but when he thinks about it, he thinks it's a trick. His marriage with her was interrupted by his master; They lived in seclusion and returned to Lanshan and wanted not to ask about the world, but they encountered the **** of their home and country; They wanted to travel the world, but they encountered an accident in Luojia Sacred Mountain and their legs were crippled; They wanted to disband and return to tranquility, but she was named the princess of the protector by an edict, and since then the sea has been up and down; He wanted her to get out of this troublesome whirlpool, but he didn't know that he was already in the mire.

One is as high as a temple, and one is as far away as a river. The sky is high and the earth is far away, and the road is far away.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

In the past few days, all the people in Qingfeng Building, Princess Mansion, and Gu Mansion have been cautious, and they dare not breathe. The mountain lord has a cold face every day, and his gaze is like a knife, which can almost kill people. The Lord Ling didn't get there well, and he spent all the rest of the time in Broken Leaf Xuan, and he didn't ask anything.

Qingluan walked out of Broken Leaf Xuan with the cold food, and shook his head at Ding Bo with a bitter face.

Dingbo sighed and brought down the meal.

Qingluan took a deep breath, walked back to the Xuan, squatted beside Ning Yan and said with a smile: "Princess, haven't you been bored for a long time, why don't you go out for a walk." There is a temple fair tonight, and it is very lively. ”

Ning Yan buried her head in the mountain-like copywriting, and said lightly: "Don't go!" ”

"Tonight, it seems that there is also the dust master of Fahua Temple who opened the altar to give a lecture, and the dust master is really out of the dust, just like heaven and earth. If it weren't for a monk, it would definitely be the dream lover of many daughters in the imperial capital. ”

"Yours too?" Ning Yan looked up from the copy and glanced at her obliquely.

"Of course...... No! Qingluan pulled the corner of Ning Yan's clothes and begged bitterly, "Princess, why are you going...... Lord Lu Li also went, Luo Hua Liuyu followed in secret, and a female guard like me who was so heroic followed, there will definitely be no more of what happened last time. ”

"When did you end up with Lu Li's fox? Stay away from him, lest you be spoiled by him. ”

"Then the princess, you promised to go?"

"Well, this palace is protected by such a heroic female guard, of course you have to go out and hang around, otherwise how can you be important?" Ning Yan picked her chin and said with a smile.
