In the courtyard, when Yuran handed An Jun's will to the hands of Changsun Yi, the king of Xiang, she could feel that Changsun Yi's hands were rarely trembling.

Everyone knows that this is An Jun's intention to force Changsun Yi to appear.

An Jun's murderous intent has been taken seriously by everyone.

And the eldest grandson Wanran is really An Jun's last bargaining chip.

"Dad, I can't take it anymore." Changsun Hong's hands clenched into fists, the nails of his fingertips were almost embedded in the flesh, and his fingers were also clenched blue. His eyes were silent and cold, as if the anger in his heart had never reached such an extreme state.

Changsun Yi retracted his will, raised his head and closed his eyes deeply, and let out a long sigh in his mouth, which was both helpless and emotional.

He never imagined that in his whole life, he would one day come to the point where he was persecuted by his most loyal people.

"Dad, the king doesn't have the Xiangwang Mansion in his heart at all, he just wants to force you to go back, and then kill you. Now that even Wanran has been used by him as a bargaining chip to threaten you, Dad, do you still want to insist on your meaningless loyalty? Changsun Hong couldn't bear it anymore, and gritted his teeth at Changsun Yi and shouted, "Dad, we can't bear it any longer!" If we back down, it's not just the two of us who will die, and even our lives will be put on the line. She's my sister, your best daughter, and you can't bear to watch her die? ”

"Okay."

"What did you just say?" Changsun Hong suspected that he had misheard.

"You said we shouldn't put up with it anymore, and I said—okay." Changsun Yi's eyes were deep, and his face was a little quieter and calmer in the twilight.

"Dad, ...... you" Changsun Hong was stunned for a moment, he obviously didn't expect Changsun Yi to agree so quickly.

Changsun Yi looked at his son and sighed slightly, "Maybe you're right, I've always only thought about whether I'm loyal to the king or not, but I've never thought about what kind of trouble my foolish loyalty will bring you. Let you be forced to become the prince and teacher, and let Wanran be in a crisis now, these are all caused by my wrong persistence. So, this time, I listen to you, and I won't endure it any longer. Since the king is unwilling to trust me, and has repeatedly wanted to trap the Hunan palace in injustice, then we simply fulfilled his wish—on the contrary. In the end, Changsun Yi's eyes suddenly became sharp and firm.

"Dad, have you really decided?" Changsun Hong's expression was solemn, and he reconfirmed to Changsun Yi. After all, he knew his father too well, and he was afraid that his father would regret it in the end.

Years of loyalty, how can it be said that it can be destroyed?

"Yes, I decided." Since it was something that his eldest grandson Yi had already decided, there was no possibility of change and regression.

"Okay, then I'll go pack my things now." Changsun Hong turned around and was about to run into the house, but he happened to face Yu Ran who was standing on the side, he stopped and smiled helplessly at Yu Ran, and he said: Nan Yu, I didn't expect to be told by you in the end. ”

Yu Ran's original plain expression was broken, she hooked the corners of her lips, and her eyebrows and eyes were curved, "Of course it's because I'm amazing." ”

"Yes, yes, Nanyu, you are very powerful at all times, and you can always predict the prophet." The eldest grandson Hong smiled handsomely and dazzlingly.

"Eldest Sun Hong......"

"Huh?"

"Didn't you ever think that I wasn't a prophet of the future, but that I was stirring up waves and pushing the boat down the river?" Yu Ran smiled exceptionally calmly, her expression seemed soft, but there was a vague and complex meaning in her phoenix eyes.

Changsun Hong was stunned for a moment, and then he sighed and laughed at the same time, he looked up at the glow in the distance, and said with a relieved expression: "Then there is no way, after all, this is what Nanyu you are pursuing." And I don't have anything to pursue, so I can only hope that the people in Xiangwangfu can do well. ”

In fact, Changsun Hong still remembers how Yuran designed An Jun at that time, and it can be said that the reason why they would send an envoy to Ningguo this time was also provoked by Yuran, and Yuran would either be her leisurely regent quietly, or directly let the king of a country fall into a trap.

However, the eldest grandson Hong also knew that if it weren't for the existence of Yuran, maybe the Xiangwang Mansion would have disappeared before.

Even if Yuran's purpose for helping them was just to better realize her plan, Changsun Hong was still willing to thank Yuran.

In Yuran's opinion: it is better to survive than to disappear in the world.

"Really? The idea doesn't sound too bad. Yu Ran said with a smile.

Eldest Sun Hong thought for a while, tilted his head and asked, "Since it's a family matter, do you still want to participate in Nanyu?" ”

Yuran smiled and said nothing.

"It seems that even if I say anything, it will be useless, I will go and prepare things first." After the eldest grandson finished speaking, he raised his eyebrows and smiled at Yuran, then turned around and walked towards the house.

Yu Ran subconsciously gathered her cloak, she nodded to Eldest Sun Yi, and prepared to leave.

It's just that Yuran just turned around when he heard a voice from behind.

"It's like you're there, okay?"

Yu Ran pursed her lips and turned around, looking at Changsun Yi's phoenix eyes were clear and translucent, she raised her lips and said with a smile: "Lord Wang, it's very good." ”

"Really? I'm really afraid that I'll be left there alone and do something stupid. Eldest Sun Yi said.

Yuran's smile stagnated for a moment, but as far as Changsun Yi saw that Yuran did not show any flaws, she smiled gently, and said softly: "No." ”

"His Royal Highness Helian, Hong'er and I won't bother."

The eldest grandson Yi gestured to Yu Ran, and Yu Ran immediately returned the salute.

The moment Yu Ran withdrew her hand, looking at the back of Changsun Yi walking away, she was silent for a moment.

"Even if you don't take advantage of them, they won't end up a little better than they do now. Or rather, it can only be a sadder death than now. At least for now, you've given them a chance. ”

Yu Ran heard a soft voice coming from behind him, and then slowly turned around, and sure enough, he was facing Rong Xian with a smile.

"Changsun Yi had already guessed that Wanran in Anguo's prison had been replaced by me, but he was still resolutely ready to betray his monarch. I admit that I am not a kind-hearted person, and I will not feel sorry for the situation of the Xiangwang Mansion, because I think that Changsun Yi has always been cocooning himself. The smile on Yuran's face was faint, she narrowed her eyes, and said, "It's like this time he decided to sit on the reputation of the rebellion that Anjun gave him, and he was for his relatives, not for his own freedom. He always cares only about other people's opinions, so he can't escape the arrangement of fate after all. ”

"Cocooning yourself?" Rong Xi raised his eyebrows and chuckled when he heard this, "Why don't you and me?" ”

Yuran raised her lips, "That's right. ”

Rong Xi turned to say: "Changsun Yi's move is tantamount to forcing the palace, I'm afraid that the turmoil in Anguo will begin." Ah Ran has been planning for the Hunan Palace, and it is for this moment. ”

"That's not for sure, is it? I remember, Yuyuan, the prime minister of Anguo, he was the one who allowed you to attack. "Jade dye means something.

"Ah Ran can rest assured, I will still keep my promise to the end this year." Rong Xian smiled slightly, his tone was light, it seemed that he was really not ready to meddle in this matter.

"Whether you obey it or not, I'll be there anyway." Yu Ran crossed his arms to his chest and said indifferently.

Rong Xun smiled, his face looked gentle and dazzling in the twilight, and there seemed to be an obsidian glint in those dark eyes. But then, his expression calmed down, and his eyes continued to deepen, "I think it's not me that Ah Ran should pay more attention to, but another person."

Although in Ah Ran's eyes, close people are not limited to blood, but out of mutual care and kindness. But sometimes, you have to admit that things like bloodlines are quite amazing. It is enough to make people believe that people with the same bloodline are relatives, and relatives are all well-intentioned and are not very good at deceiving themselves. But sometimes, bloodline is just a poison that erodes people's hearts, and it will only make you constantly hurt and betrayed. ”

Yu Ran knew that the person Rong Xian was referring to was the eldest grandson Wanran.

Indeed, she already knew the final decision of the eldest grandson Wanran, and even she knew that this was the ending that Hua Jun and An Jun jointly wanted to deliberately show her Yuran.

They all wanted to see her sad and lost appearance, and they felt that the betrayal of the eldest grandson Wanran would bring her blow and pain.

They want her to understand that in this world, it's not that if you think you're good to others, others will appreciate it.

"Rong Xian, you underestimate me too much." Yuran was silent for a long time, and suddenly raised her head and smiled.

"Oh?" Rong Xi's eyes lit up.

Yuran's expression seemed to be smiling, and she said: "My heart is very small, and there are only a few friends who can fit it." Friendship doesn't have to be a lot, and it would be nice to have one or two sincere ones, but if they all betray, it must be my own problem, so I won't let that happen. For me, most of them are just partners in terms of interests, and they just meet and talk for a while. If I really put my heart and soul into everyone, do you think I would still be alive until now? ”

"You're all serious?" Rong Xun asked with a smile.

Yu Ran raised her eyebrows, "Otherwise, what do you think?" ”

"What about me? Is it among the very few people in your heart? Rong Xun blinked and smiled incredibly.

"It doesn't count." Jade Ran replied quickly.

"It's really cool." Rong Xi pretended to be aggrieved and sighed.

"Yes, I'm Bo Liang. Even if you don't accept it—you'll have to choke me back. Yu Ran pointed at Rong Xi's beautiful face and said with a pretended threat.

Yu Ran didn't know if Rong Xian had heard it clearly, she said that she had very few friends who could fit in, as for the rest...... Well, it's better for her not to say it first, even if she does, it's probably boring.

That night, the king of Xiang and his eldest grandson secretly left Ningguo, and the next day, in the name of the king of Xiang, they were supported by several soldiers on the border of Angola. An Jun is tyrannical and has long been unpopular. And the fiery loyalty of the king of Xiang for more than 20 years, no one in the army dared to disbelieve him. Perhaps in the eyes of the soldiers and the army, the king of Xiang was the one they should follow, and they were only willing to be sent by the king of Xiang, not the indiscriminate will of An Jun.
