"Why are you here so late?"

Xu Yanran's face was a little bad, and she hurriedly stretched the letter to the flame on the oil lamp and burned it.

Yuan Qi put the food in his hand on the windowsill, and did not mean to enter the house.

"You've been worrying so much these days that you haven't eaten much...... I found some melons outside today, and I thought your girls would like them, so I sent them over. “

"Thank you...... Thank you ......"

Xu Yanran restrained her expression and responded softly.

His eyes drooped, and he fell on the bowl of neatly cut melons, and he felt a little uncomfortable.

This young man comes from an ordinary background, but he has lofty ambitions,

Importantly, it's good for her.

She used a bitter trick, disguised herself as a down-and-out daughter, and entered Tongcheng.

She was almost insulted by the rude refugees, but it was Yuan Qi who saved her.

After that, she could feel the difference that Yuan Qi treated her.

Let her eat the best and live in the best place.

In the past few months of getting along, it is difficult for her not to have some ambiguous thoughts about this handsome and responsible teenager.

But she is deceiving his trust and destroying him step by step.

There can be no soft-heartedness yet.

"Rest early, it's cold, I'll ask them to burn some charcoal wood tomorrow and bring it to you."

Yuan Qi said, turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait!"

Xu Yanran opened her mouth to stop him.

"What's wrong?" Yuan Qi turned around.

Xu Yanran gritted her teeth and said tentatively: "Brother Yuan, have you ever thought about it...... Defection to the imperial court? ”

Seeing that Yuan Qi's face was instantly serious, she hurriedly explained: "I know that you have a lot of ideas, and I also know that your hatred is not allowed to make such a choice......

"But this place is remote and desolate, and there are nearly 40,000 people to survive the winter, and you can't stock up enough at the moment."

If Yuan Qi does not oppose Daduan, as long as the Queen Mother takes power, the eleventh prince will ascend the throne......

Yuan Qi doesn't have to die, she can marry Yuan Qi, ask for a reward for him, and she can also be glorious for a lifetime.

The boy's eyes sank, and he froze in place.

"Yes, today's emperor is absurd and unreasonable, and it is difficult to shoulder the heavy responsibility of the world, you want to overthrow Daduan, I understand, and even support"

Yuan Qi looked at her, but slowly shook his head.

"No, you don't understand." He said.

"I, I understand, you know, I'm also one of the victims of tyranny."

Xu Yanran's face showed a bit of pain, and she looked at Yuan Qi, trying to get his approval.

Yuan Qi's eyelashes drooped, and his eyes were a little mocking, and a little melancholy.

"Then why did you choose the one in the Daduan Deep Palace instead of me?"

"You..... Why do you say that all of a sudden? “

Xu Yanran was stunned, a little flustered and weird in her heart, Yuan Qi looked at her at the moment, with a little strange and complicated.

There is no softness in the slightest.

"Actually, when we first met, we weren't ...... Tongcheng"

"In Yandu."

Yuan Qi's words shocked Xu Yanran's heart.

She was not impressed at all, but if Yuan Qi had seen her in Yandu, then she would definitely appear as the eldest lady of the Xu family.

Xu Yanran knew how much Yuan Qi hated her father.

"I, I've never been to Yandu, Brother Yuan must have recognized the wrong person." She explained softly, without the slightest hint of apprehension in her heart.

"Really? Maybe. Yuan Qi's voice couldn't hear emotion.

But soon, he regained her familiar appearance, and said softly:

"It's cold, you rest early, I'll go down first."

After that, he didn't look at Xu Yanran's somewhat panicked face, and turned to leave.

He knows it all...... He even knew it all!

Xu Yanran looked at the back of the young man who didn't look back, and her fingers clenched the hem of her clothes, and she ruthlessly snuffed out the little mercy she had just born.
