"Da, da, da......"

The study of the Liang Mansion was a little frighteningly quiet, the footsteps of leather boots stepped on the ground of bluestone slabs and bricks, and Xiao Zhao quietly looked at Liang Zheng who was pacing around in front of him, and was inexplicably a little nervous.

Since returning home, Liang Zhengping retreated left and right, leaving himself alone in this room, but he didn't say anything, and kept walking around in front of him, as if he was thinking about something, and as if he was waiting for something.

"Da, da, da......"

It was still a rhythmic pace, but it shook the air around him uneasily, and it seemed to run over people's hearts with a sound, stepping on Xiao Zhao's heart empty, and a burst of cold sweat broke out behind him.

"Xiao Zhao."

Finally, Liang Zheng stopped and threw himself to the ground.

"Young Master...... Why? Don't be like this, it's a slave to ......" Xiao Zhao hurriedly squatted down, his voice trembling a little out of tune.

However, Liang Zheng didn't mean to get up at all: "No, you deserve this gift." ”

"Less...... Father? ”

"Because you saved my life, not only saved me, but also saved all the people in Yongning County. So you deserve it. ”

"I ......" Xiao Zhao blushed slightly, raised his hand and swept his sideburns behind his white ears, "How can I be so great as you say, young master, I just want to get out of Bao Yong's control......"

"Whatever your starting point." Liang Zheng said, "But this is the case, which cannot be denied. ”

"Hmm......"

"And as Bao Yong's secret party, you can abandon the darkness and turn to the light, and destroy your relatives with righteousness, which is even more commendable."

"Young Master, I'm ......"

"But you're still a White Lotus Cultist after all."

“！！”

Xiao Zhao was startled, and opened her eyes, this sudden turn of events made her a little distracted for a while, but she immediately reacted:

"Young Master, are you trying to drive me away?" Her lips trembled, and even her voice trembled a little.

"Indeed......" Liang Zheng sighed faintly, "We once said that you will help me to suppress the White Lotus traitor, and I will help you get rid of the sea of suffering, so that you can live in the sun and be a real person from now on, and now that the White Lotus is gone, you can live well without the Liang Mansion......"

"Really?" Xiao Zhao smiled miserably, "I helped you serve the Henan branch of the White Lotus Sect, and it won't be long before this matter reaches the ears of the sect leader." The White Lotus Sect is extremely cool in dealing with traitors, at least there are guards guarding here, if I leave here, even if I hide to the ends of the earth, I can't escape the pursuit of the sect master. ”

Liang Zheng listened quietly, and did not say a word, and after a while, he sighed helplessly: "You are a White Lotus Sect after all, this is a fact that cannot be changed, harboring the White Lotus Sect, that is equivalent to rebellion, you don't know what is involved, what happened to Li Shiqing, you also saw it today." ”

“…… The young master must drive me away? Xiao Zhao's expression was blank.

She took this step and thought about it for a long time, because she knew that this step was extremely dangerous, and once she took it, there was no turning back......

She also inspected Liang Zheng for a long time, until she was sure that his personality could be worthy of her trust, and his ability to destroy Bao Yong, then she finally made a choice.

Choosing this path, she is equivalent to gambling her net worth and life!

However, the truth is ......

Liang Zheng didn't speak, just looked at the girl in front of him whose face suddenly turned pale, and let the suffocating atmosphere permeate the study silently, and after a long time, he spoke softly:

"It's too risky to keep you."

The voice was very flat, but it was like the Last Judgment, and it was more like the sound of a death knell, which shook Xiao Zhao for a while.

From Liang Zheng's point of view, this is indeed an understandable choice.

From her point of view, she has nothing left, she betrayed the Holy Sect, betrayed her sister, and now even loses herself......

Once captured by the Holy Sect, the consequences are unimaginable.

So she lost......

Clean and thorough.

"Okay......" Xiao Zhao smiled miserably, "Then you can send my corpse out of the house!" ”

As she spoke, she flipped her wrist, and there was already a cold dagger in her palm, and she wiped it off her neck without saying a word!

But less than half an inch away from his neck, he was grabbed by Liang Zheng's wrist.

Rao is like this, and the sharp cold light also left a thin blood mark on the white jade-like skin, silently expounding the thrilling just now.

"Alas...... Why do you bother doing this? Liang Zheng sighed heavily, "That's it...... You must stay by my side, it's not impossible. ”

"Young Master! You, what do you say? Xiao Zhao was stunned again, almost unable to believe his ears.

"Actually...... Your means, insight, scheming, and resourcefulness are all the best choices," Liang Zheng said, "I appreciate this, so I give you two choices: one is to leave the Liang Mansion, I will not reveal your past to anyone, and from now on you and I will not owe each other; The second is to stay and continue to be my personal servant, then from today onwards you will have one more identity, my captain of the guard. ”

Xiao Zhao was stunned, and his heart felt like he had walked through a thunderstorm......

She instantly understood what Liang Zheng meant, he didn't really want to get rid of himself at all, this was not a choice at all, he was warning himself in a shocking manner.

Really......

"But if you want to be my guard captain, you can't just nod your head." Liang Zheng continued, "To be my person, you need to be single-minded, indomitable, and absolutely loyal, not self-asserted. ”

“…… I get it. Xiao Zhao nodded.

As smart as she is, she already knows what she is doing wrong......

also vaguely understood Liang Zheng's intention to call himself to this place alone.

Really......

Liang Zheng: "You killed Bao Yong for the antidote, you changed the roster on him without authorization, in order to erase your case record in the White Lotus Sect, I know all this, I don't blame you, but ......"

He paused, and his tone suddenly became cold: "You shouldn't make your own decisions. ”

One word at a time......

But it's a word for heart.

Xiao Zhao couldn't help but shudder, she finally understood that her little cleverness couldn't be played in front of this man, and he didn't like it.

But now she has nowhere to go, and following Liang Zheng is the only choice.

"The servant knows that she is wrong," she knelt down and bowed, "please punish the young master." ”

It's just that Liang Zheng has no voice.

However, even so, even if he didn't look up, Xiao Zhao could still feel his deep pupils staring at him for a moment, as if he wanted to stare into the depths of her soul.

…………

………

……

Silence, silent silence as if substance pressed the air, and the study was so quiet that even the heartbeat was making an exaggerated throbbing.

In this way, I don't know how long it took, Liang Zheng's lips that were tightly pursed into the word "one" finally opened:

"I can't say anything about punishment or anything. As I said, I understand your choice. He waved his hand, "But not for example." ”

“…… Be. Xiao Zhao's head fell lower.

"Get up." Liang Zheng stretched out his hand to help her up, "After saying so much, my stomach is hungry, let the kitchen hurry up and prepare lunch." ”

As he spoke, he gently patted Xiao Zhao's hand and smiled, then turned around and walked out without looking back, sighing faintly where no one heard.

I can't help it......

From the moment Xiao Zhao put away the long sword in front of him last night, he already understood that this girl had entrusted all her worth and life to himself.

She couldn't live without herself at all......

But that's not enough......

Because since Xiao Zhao confessed everything to him, he saw that this girl was different.

She is decisive, judging the situation, and full of wisdom, and there is such a person missing by her side.

Although Su Qinghe and Xu Hu are loyal, they are soldiers after all, and they can't worry about many things.

Xiao Zhao has this ability, but after all, she was born in Bailian, she is ruthless, and she loves to make decisions without permission......

That's why he had to knock on the mountain and shake the tiger.

After all, Xiao Zhao is not only his personal maid - he can be said to be the closest person around him, but he also plans to hand over the position of guard platoon commander to her...... If she can't guarantee her absolute loyalty to herself, then it's really better to let her go, and everyone will break up.
