"In other words, if the Xiangwang Mansion is removed by An Jun, then the entire Anguo Dynasty may gradually be included in my hands. After all, an An Jun is not to be afraid at all, no matter who does it, it can be easily removed. Therefore, keeping the Xiangwang Mansion is equivalent to having a force that can be counterbalanced with me. If the Xiangwang Mansion does not fall, then my plan will never succeed. ”

When Rong Xi said this, he always had a smile on his face, and even maintained a calm expression, as if these things had nothing to do with him.

"Nanyu, is this true?" Changsun Hong's eyes had already turned into a silent water, as if his heart could no longer feel the beating after his sister and father died one after another.

"It's true." The next moment, Yuran looked directly at Changsun Hong and replied without hesitation.

At this moment, hearing Rong Xi's explanation and hearing Yu Ran's response, Changsun Hong no longer knew what kind of expression to show to face them.

Because the truth is too cruel for him, it is like rubbing salt on his scars again and again, and the continuous impact makes him almost dizzy.

He used to think that he was mature enough, and he always took it for granted that he could understand everything. But in the end, he found out that he had always been a child who had not grown up, always pretending to be mature there.

And the two people in front of him told him with facts that he didn't think enough and didn't know enough about things.

The two people in front of him are real schemes, and his previous analysis and performance in front of Yuran are probably just a game to play with children in the eyes of the two.

Sometimes, the reality is so cruel.

"Since you are the prince of the Xiang Palace, you need to know what situation you may face in the future since you were a child. The worst is right now. And if you're never prepared and think that the world is supposed to be fair, then in the end you won't be able to choose. Rong Zhen's voice was gentle, and there seemed to be a smile between his lips.

"So, you and Nanyu are the ones who will always live in preparation?" Changsun Hong raised his eyes, his eyes were calm and silent, and no one seemed to know how complicated his emotions were now.

"Eldest grandson Hong, you should be glad that you were not born in the emperor's family, and you should also be glad that your father and sister have always loved you. But Rong Xi and I can't live like you, because in order to survive, we even have to be enemies of our relatives. We've paid far more than you. Yuran closed her eyes, sighed lightly, and then opened her lips.

For a moment, there was silence on both sides.

After a long time, Changsun Hong finally spoke, he closed his eyes, and his expression suddenly looked a little indescribable vicissitudes, he looked at Yu Ran carefully, and the ripples in his eyes were turbulent, "You don't have to worry, I will leave Anguo after tomorrow morning, you should have something to say to the courtiers." ”

Yu Ran tilted her head, a pair of phoenix eyes were tactful, and she said gently: "You don't have to go." ”

"You left me behind, just torture me." Eldest Sun Hong smiled bitterly, and he said: "Nanyu, I don't want to hate you, it's true that I want to kill you, it's true that my father doesn't want to live, they are all sending them to death for their own purposes." I'm a reasonable person, and I won't mess with you unreasonably. But Nanyu, I really can't forgive you, because their death doesn't have anything to do with you.

"-If it were you, you would understand me, wouldn't you?"

"Yes, I understand." Yuran's expression did not change, she raised the corners of her lips slightly, and her originally silent face seemed to finally have a little softer.

"My dad and Wanran ......"

"I will bury them in the fief of the King of Xiang according to the rites." Yu Ran spoke one step ahead of Changsun Hong.

Changsun Hong nodded, he looked at Yu Ran deeply, and the hand at his side clenched and released. Finally, he took a deep breath, finally folded his hands, and bowed deeply to Yuran, "Then all of this is bothering His Highness Helian." ”

It's not Nanyu anymore......

Nanyu should have disappeared a long time ago, shouldn't she?

In other words, there should be no Nanyu in this world. Everything, maybe it's just that his obsession is too deep.

Yu Ran lowered his eyes gently, his eyes were gentle and calm, "The princes of Anguo are cowardly by nature under the threat of An Jun all day long, and they can't make any waves in the court of tomorrow, so there is no need for Rong Xi and I to check in secret." So, today may be the last time we'll see each other.

"Eldest grandson, take care."

Changsun Hong's eyes were deep, and he stared at Yuran tightly, as if he wanted to deeply imprint Yuran's face in his mind.

This is the last time, Nanyu......

"Take care." He nodded slightly, then resolutely turned away without looking back.

Suddenly, the entire Anguo Hall was empty, and the atmosphere was terrifyingly silent.

The cold wind blows in a gust, bringing people a cold feeling on the body. The strong smell of blood was pungent and choking, and it seemed that there was a sense of solemnity slowly spreading in the main hall.

Today's Anguo is turbulent.

And the essence of Anguo exists in name only.

The next day, the hall was restored to its original state, and it seemed that yesterday's bloodshed and strife were completely unrecognizable.

An Jun died, and King Xiang died, which was a great blow to everyone in Anguo.

And the explanation that the ministers got was only: King Xiang originally entered the palace to prove his innocence to An Jun, but unexpectedly opposed the assassin who infiltrated the palace, King Xiang entangled with the assassin to protect An Jun, and unfortunately died, and An Jun did not escape.

Assassin?

What kind of assassin can be so powerful that he can kill King Xiang first and then kill An Jun?

From which country did the Assassin come from, and by whom was he assigned?

None of this was explained, but the courtiers were well aware of the depths and did not dare to touch them at will. In such turbulent times, if someone accidentally takes the wrong step, they may lose their lives.

And Sun Hong, the eldest son of Anguo Xiang Wangfu, received Anjun's last order and stepped forward to read the edict.

The edict means that the crown prince and the eldest grandson Rui will be the monarch, and the prince will thank the assistant government.

In fact, there are many loopholes in this edict.

The courtiers even knew in their hearts that a tyrannical and suspicious person like An Jun, even if he died, it would never be possible for someone who was not from the eldest grandson clan to assist the government.

Because the word "auxiliary government" sounds good for the future of Anguo, but the fact is that the real decision is no longer in the hands of Changsun Rui, but in Xie Yiyuan.

As for who is behind Xie Yiyuan, no one can know.

Therefore, everyone has their own decision about the authenticity of this edict, and in the final analysis, the edict is just an explanation to the world.

And what happened in the palace last night, they had no way of knowing. Even if they knew, they would all leave for the sake of being able to get out of the way, pretending that they didn't know anything.

"Shizi, no, I should call you the prince of Xiang now. These days are also going by so fast, you kid has become a prince...... After all, aren't you really ready to stay? After the dispersal of the dynasty, Xie Jianbai walked beside Changsun Hong and said with some sighs.

The eldest grandson Hong was dressed in plain clothes, and his spirit did not look very good, and his eyes seemed to be sad, and he said, "Thank you for your kindness." ”

It means rejection.

This is the first time that Changsun Hong has spoken to Xie Jianbai so seriously.

"You and before...... It's different. Xie Jianbai raised his head, he looked at the sky, and sighed.

Changsun Hong's expression was still faint, he smiled casually, and said, "My father and Wanran are dead, and I haven't been able to do anything, so there's no reason to stay here anymore." What's more, you also know my temperament, I have no interest in the court, and I have no loyalty to the king, it is better to be arbitrary in the landscape, which is more suitable for me. ”

"I thought you'd hate it." Xie Jianbai was one of the few insiders, he remembered the impulsive temperament of Changsun Hong before, and thought that this time Changsun Hong would explode again.

Unexpectedly, Changsun Hong's performance was unexpectedly calm.

Eldest Sun Hong lowered his eyes and smiled silently, "Hate? Master Xie, you think too highly of me. Let's not talk about anything else, let's talk about Nan...... Helian Yu, do you think that even if I hate her, I can win her casually? I can't win, after all, Lord Xie should know this better than me. What's more, I have nothing to hate her. After all, my dad and Wanran, in a real sense, both chose the ending they thought they wanted.

"Helian Yu is right about one thing, in the face of a person who is obsessed, it is difficult for us to change him. It's a pity that my dad is such a person, and he seems to be such a person. As my father's son, as Wanran's older brother, I have no power to change them, so I can only watch them die. So, the person I should blame the most should actually be myself, right? ”

"Really? Obsession......" Xie Jianbai thought of this, and his heart was full of emotion.

In this world, there are too many people who are obsessed. But how many people can break their obsessions, or achieve their ultimate goals through obsessions?

Perhaps, Yuran and Rong Xi are both such people. It's just that they want to know their own obsessions, and they have paved the way for themselves from the beginning.

No one knows what the final outcome will be.

"Then let's stop here, Master Xie, I'll go first." Changsun Hong suddenly stopped, he smiled at Xie Jianbai, and then saluted.

His face seems to be still handsome, but yesterday's wanton vigor seems to have turned into calm and subtle today.

Eldest grandson Hong, he has changed.

Maybe after the death of his father and sister, he has been hit hard enough and understands the impermanence of this world.

No one can live a life in a wanton manner, not even Changsun Hong.

"Take care."
