Chapter 195: Reminiscences
"But when did you find out I was lying to you? I felt as if I hadn't shown any flaws. ”
Zhao Jingxuan felt that Jiang Li's reaction after knowing the truth was not as drastic as he expected, but he was actually quite surprised.
She seems to have noticed it a long time ago, but she hasn't picked it out?
Jiang Liang heard Zhao Jingxuan say this, but he couldn't help laughing.
"Do you really think you're keeping me in the dark and don't know anything?"
People who get along day and night are actually easy to see the problem.
At that time, after Zhao Jingxuan separated from her from Yushan, when she met again, she found that there seemed to be some changes in him.
But she didn't think much about it, thinking that after being chased by the bandits, there would be a change in mentality, as if she was also wary of many things at that time.
It's just that since then, she still paid attention to Zhao Jingxuan's every move, especially Xiao Yuchen also mentioned that the cottage was exterminated, which made her wonder if it was related to Zhao Jingxuan.
"But it really makes me think that you have a problem, in fact, after meeting your eldest sister, Zhao Jinglin."
At that time, Zhao Jingxuan's reaction was very big, maybe he didn't notice it himself, but the bystanders were clear, but Jiang Liang saw many details in his eyes.
"It's just that I think there are some things that you should say yourself, so I didn't ask about it. But I didn't expect it to be like this in the end. When I met the bandit, he told me that you killed the cottage. ”
Jiang Liang didn't expect this secret to be exposed like this.
"Who are you?"
Jiang Li's focused and serious eyes made Zhao Jingxuan unavoidable, so he could only confront her.
"Ah, do you believe me?"
"I don't know who else I should trust or who I can trust now, but I decided to try to trust you."
If Zhao Jingxuan hadn't appeared here and hadn't saved her, Jiang Liang felt that even if he was lucky enough to escape with his life, he might be hostile to the world.
When the time comes, she doesn't know where she's going to go or what kind of person she's going to become.
However, these assumptions do not hold true in Zhao Jingxuan's case, he appeared and saved her from fire and water.
"When I was younger, I did have a terrible memory. Even in order to escape from that home, he did a lot of things that now seem very ridiculous. ”
Zhao Jingxuan smiled slightly when he heard Jiang Liang's words, and opened his memories by taking the opportunity.
"Actually, the eldest sister didn't know that my life in the front yard was not satisfactory, even worse than she could imagine. After all, I am the sister-in-law of the family and the eldest son of my father, so I will naturally become a thorn in the side of my stepmother. ”
"I also had no intention of competing with them for the Zhao family's property, I was just thinking about escaping at that time, and I didn't want to be in that house. Even, in order to escape from this home, I even thought about dying, and secretly poisoned myself. ”
"Poisoned?"
Jiang Liang didn't expect Zhao Jingxuan to do such a crazy thing, just to escape from that home, what did he go through at that time?
"Later, I was lucky not to die, but I met the master by mistake because of this kind of thing. His old man said that I have a cold temperament, I don't even care about my own life, and even my own life can be used to achieve my goals, and I am a good seedling who is very suitable for being a secret guard. ”
Since then, Zhao Jingxuan has followed this master to learn all kinds of fighting skills, poisoning, assassination, all of which are refined.
In fact, he just wants to find a successor, and it doesn't really matter to him who that person is. It's just an errand. ”
Thinking of the experience of that period of time, in fact, Zhao Jingxuan's master was not good to him, and even beat and scolded him at every turn.
It's just that unlike being blindly spurned and humiliated in the Zhao family, the master's attitude towards him is just to polish a weapon in hand, and everything exists for this purpose.
The master has no feelings for him, and he doesn't have any feelings for the master, they just use each other.
"Later, when the master was old, he was naturally no longer qualified for the position of the leader of the dark guard, so he helped me to my current position. After all, there are too many enemies to make in this line of work. ”
They are the Emperor's sword, used to cut off everything he has to deal with, but because they are too sharp, they are easy to incur backlash.
"But the funny thing is that the master thought that I could keep him in this position, but in the end, I fell into the trap of others and was poisoned, and he died not long after."
When Zhao Jingxuan said this, the emotions in his eyes were complicated, and he couldn't tell what he felt.
However, Jiang Liang knew very well that he should be sad in his heart.
After all, it should be very uncomfortable for such a person who taught him so many things to leave like this. Even if the relationship between the other party and him is not deep, but people can be ruthless.
"On the one hand, I have the identity of the Zhao family as a cover, and the Zhao family has poured a lot of dirty water on me, and my reputation is getting worse and worse. But it did me a good thing, and no one doubted that I had anything to do with the Dark Guard leader. On the other hand, I was receiving orders from above. ”
Zhao Jingxuan has always been working for the emperor, and in just a few years, he has eliminated many troubles for the emperor. It's just that even so, he feels that he has to sneak in the dark all his life until he meets Jiang Fence.
"My story is actually quite short, and as you can see, that's all I have."
Zhao Jingxuan said, and couldn't help but sigh lightly, "I want to ask you now, what are you going to do after knowing these things?" ”
He suddenly looked at Jiang Liang seriously, wanting her to give an answer.
Jiang Liang didn't expect Zhao Jingxuan to suddenly ask such a sentence, undoubtedly putting the choice in her hands.
If she says she doesn't want to be with him, then there will never be anything between the two again.
Jiang Liang knows very well that Zhao Jingxuan is a person who does what he says, and this is not a joke.
"You should know that if you stay with me, I am afraid that there will be endless troubles in the future. Even, you will encounter dangers that you can't imagine. So, would you still like it? ”
Zhao Jingxuan said this fact with difficulty, and now he is not willing to deceive Jiang Liang in any way.
Before, he concealed his memory recovery in order not to leave Jiang Li's side, but he didn't expect that after the matter was exposed, he would be so embarrassed.
Even if Jiang Liang dislikes him because of this, he is also to blame and has nothing to do with others.
Fortunately, Jiang Liang did not dwell on this, but was willing to give him a chance to explain.
Having learned the previous lesson, Zhao Jingxuan knew that he could no longer be as self-righteous as before this time, but confessed everything.
"You should know what's at stake."
When Jiang Liang heard this, he didn't know how to answer.
