Night falls, and the moon hangs high in the sky.

For fear of revealing his whereabouts, no fire was lit in the tent, and loud noises were forbidden. So, there was silence all around, only to hear someone talking in a whisper by chance.

Ye Teng didn't enter the tent, just sat on a piece of wood next to the tent casually, took out a bottle of wine from the storage ring, and signaled to Dian Wei who was standing next to him, Dian Wei shook his head.

Sure enough, he is a god-level bodyguard, and his consciousness is quite high.

In fact, Dian Wei usually drinks well, but he never drinks it at two times, one is when he stays by Ye Teng's side, and when he leads troops in the military camp for a while.

Ye Teng was not reluctant, unscrewed the cap, and prepared to drink alone.

"Don't drink, come with me." Before the wine was consumed, Shangguan Xue'er's beautiful voice sounded behind him.

Ye Teng smiled helplessly, screwed the bottle cap on, threw it back into the storage ring, got up and reviewed, and teased: "Okay, the night is long, does the goddess also have a boring time?" ”

Shangguan Xue'er didn't answer, and walked straight towards the path leading to the top of the North Mountain.

Ye Teng shook his head and strolled to follow.

Neither of them spoke, just walked slowly one after the other, as if they were about to walk out of a long time and the years changed.

Dian Wei hung far behind Ye Teng.

Shangguan Xue'er walked for half an hour before she stopped in a flat place that was close to the top of the mountain, where she could barely see the lights in the distance.

Ye Teng took two steps forward, stood side by side with her, and looked ahead.

"I feel like you're a little lost, why?" Ye Teng asked.

Shangguan Xue'er replied softly: "It's not that I'm confused, it's just that I can't shirk the future and fate of so many people, and sometimes I inevitably feel tired, and tonight is quiet, so I want to talk to you." ”

Ye Teng said with a smile: "I don't know how many people want to take this kind of burden but can't get it." As far as I know, the children of many wealthy families in the imperial capital, for the burden of the heir, have to fight to the death! ”

Shangguan Xue'er shook her head lightly and said, "It's a pity that I don't have brothers and sisters who are close to my relatives, otherwise my grandfather wouldn't have to pin all his hopes on me." I still remember the eve of the start of "The Princes of the World", I was terrified, so I asked my grandfather, there are many outstanding children of the Shangguan family, they are stronger than me in terms of ability and experience, why do I have to do it? Do you know what Grandpa said to me? ”

Ye Tengqi said: "What do you say? ”

Shangguan Xue'er said: "Grandpa said that the identity of the side branch of the descendant sometimes seems to be unimportant, but if the position of the heir is not arranged, it will be the source of all tragedies."

"If the heir is given to other cousins and uncles, the first thing the Shangguan family will stage must be infighting, not development.

"Do you know what to do to stabilize the big position most easily? First use the innate advantage of the heir to grasp part of the authority, and then get rid of the grandfather, and plant the most powerful competitors in the internal to make an example of the monkey and create a chilling effect. Then, he forced me to marry, anyway, he had already exceeded five suits in terms of blood, as long as he married me, he would have roughly stabilized his position.

"If you can wait until I give birth to my son and then get rid of me, then everything will be perfect!"

Shangguan Xue'er's words were cold and ethereal, but Ye Teng was terrified when he heard them.

Sure enough, there was a sigh in the palace, and there was a song in the hut!

The cruelty of a wealthy family is not something that a dick can understand.

As a certain great god wrote, the world is like a copper furnace, all living beings are suffering, everyone has their own suffering, no one can replace it, no one can replace it.

Ye Teng said: "So you can only take over the heavy responsibility, and even pull Zhu Weixuan and Shen Yuyang, who are sympathetic to each other, to help each other, establish power, and nip all unstable factors in the bud, so that all unstable seeds cannot take root and sprout." ”

Shangguan Xue'er nodded and said, "Although Grandpa didn't say it explicitly, I know that Grandpa acquiesced in me taking you back, in fact, he also regarded you as an Austrian aid, hoping that it could play a role in suppressing internal and external evil in the future." ”

"Oh?" Ye Teng felt that this statement was relatively fresh, and he was also a little confused.

According to common sense, it is enough to have the support of the old man Shangguan inside, and Shen Yuyang and Zhu Weixuan to help each other. The things of the world are too much, and overkill is not beautiful, and adding another Ye Teng will increase the possibility of chaos.

Shangguan Xue'er turned around, looked at Ye Teng fixedly, shook her head slightly, and said, "The three of us can't all get married, right?" Who can guarantee that there will be no ambitious people and people who play right and wrong among our targets? If this is the case, it is the beginning of the chaos when the Austrian aid is no longer there. ”

Ye Teng nodded and said, "It's possible." ”

Shangguan Xue'er continued: "Most of the emperors of all dynasties have forced the harem not to interfere in politics. And many wealthy families also have a tradition that housewives are not allowed to interfere in decision-making. But do you think it's possible for all three of us to ask our spouses not to interfere in decision-making?

"Although I don't want to admit it, the fact is that girls have natural weaknesses and deficiencies in this regard!

"Grandpa has been on the battlefield for a long time, and he has seen farther than anyone else, so I often don't do things that are not grandpa's nodding or acquiescence, not that I don't dare, but I know that if there is a disagreement, the wrong person is often me!

"I went to Jiangnan to pick you up, and my grandfather acquiesced. To this day, he didn't even ask if I had a relationship with you, or if there was any possibility of developing into a lover. ”

"Why?" Ye Teng also felt a little incomprehensible, it stands to reason that there is a big gap between advance and retreat on this issue, and it is impossible for Shangguan Hong not to ask Shangguan Xue'er and himself for a clear answer.

Shangguan Xue'er said: "Thinking about it in private, I think there are three reasons:

"First, you come from a humble background, and there is almost no power in reality, although you are strong in martial arts, in fact, you are not a big threat;

"Second, in terms of understanding this game, you are likely to be the first person in China! Many wealthy families, and even the high-ranking military and political leaders in Huaxia are inferior to you, so I hope you can give you guidance in this regard;

"Third, if Zhu Weixuan and Shen Yuyang have an accident due to marriage and other factors, I hope that your alliance with the Shangguan family can have the effect of suppressing all internal and external evils!"

Ye Teng said with a smile: "For the sake of your granddaughter, the old man can be regarded as exhausted!" ”

Shangguan Xue'er said: "Now, you are also a person in a high position. It should be known that those who make decisions must be cautious, and any mistake may cause irreparable results; Even rivers of blood flowed and thousands of heads fell to the ground! ”

Shangguan Xue'er's words made Ye Teng deeply realize that the woman in front of him who was infinitely beautiful actually had hardships and sorrows no less than his own.

A wisp of pity arose.

In the late spring of 191 A.D., in the wilderness of Taishan County, the night was thick and dewy.

The woman is beautiful, dressed in white, in the evening breeze, her clothes are fluttering.

Ye Teng couldn't help but stretch out his left hand, bypassed the back of Shangguan Xue'er, who was standing on his left side, and gently hugged her arm.

At this time, the sleeves of the spring shirt are thin, and the sky is cool and the moon is white.
