"Go with confidence, I will defeat you and kill Jinling, and you should feel proud to die under my imperial dragon."

Li Zenan stabbed him in the chamber with a sword, stirred it, and then pulled it out.

Fan Rao fell to the ground with a very confident smile, he firmly believed in his own judgment.

The death of the main general led to the complete collapse of the soldiers and horses along the way, and they were defeated, and their hearts were defeated.

So under the pursuit of the Northern Tang people who kept pouring out of the city gate, they scattered and fled.

But Li Zenan did not pursue, because he got news from the other city gates-

Those gates were breached, and the Southern Wu people entered the city of Chang'an.

Li Zenan raised his sword.

The torrent was rolling, and he took his men back to the city.

……

……

The voices in the distance were chaotic, and the entire Chang'an was in a state of collapse.

In just a few months, it seemed like we had reached the end of the world.

The road of life is so ridiculous when you think about it.

It's dark and quiet.

A candle lit up the young man's face.

Still handsome and eye-catching.

He was only seventeen or eighteen years old, but his eyes were already full of vicissitudes.

At this moment, his expression was gloomy, revealing a bit of despair.

On the other side, the stunning woman in orange looked at him with a sad face and said:

"In fact, even if we reach the end of the world, we are not dead, and the sky is still clear."

The gloom on Xue Zhao's face eased slightly, he smiled, and said, "Qin Yun'er, I don't want to talk about this now. ”

He scrutinized her pretty face.

She was so beautiful and bright, she was in her prime, and she was in her best years, but she had gone through so many things with her own heart, so that the petals of that bright flower were washed with dirt and became much defiled.

He can't get rid of the other party, because the other party's will is too strong, and he doesn't have the right to make decisions for others.

Miss Qin leaned over and smiled the same, but reluctantly.

She tilted her head and asked, "So what exactly do you want to say to me?" ”

"Qin Yun'er, you are very good," Xue Zhao looked at her thrush-like eyes, as if he had made a deep decision about what he said, "But ......"

He paused.

"You're a nice guy, I'm sorry I just don't have feelings for you."

He lowered his head, not daring to look at the other party.

Miss Qin was silent for a long time.

At the end, she smiled bitterly, and then said: "Actually, I don't need you to say it, I understand, after all, I'm not a fool, it's just that you said this in front of me today, I'm a little surprised." ”

She looked back at the past, with some sighs and some self-deprecation.

"You don't need to blame yourself, I have said what you just said to dozens of people, and they are all young and handsome, you are a good person, but I have no feelings for you; You're a good person, it's just that we're not suitable; You're good, but we can't ......."

"In those days, in the face of those who don't measure themselves, I directly said one word: 'Get out', for those who have merit but I don't look at it, I refuse with these words, but I just say it in my mouth, but there is no wave in my heart, and it is taken for granted, until today......" She looked at Xue Zhao with beautiful eyes, "It's my turn." ”

"Only then did I understand that the pain I gave to others was so shameful and hateful, but I wasn't wrong, and you weren't wrong."

"That's it, let's not talk about this topic." She closed her eyes.

Then, she smiled, bright as a flower: "So, do you have someone you like, everyone knows, many people think that you and Li Xiyun are a natural pair, what about the facts, do you have feelings for her?" ”

Xue Zhao turned his head sideways and sighed.

"Yes, Princess Guangle, the first beauty in the Tang Dynasty, she is a strange woman, who doesn't like it in the world?"

"I like Li Xiyun." He admitted it in person in front of Miss Qin.

Miss Qin's eyes darkened, and she looked a little sad.

Indeed, if Xue Zhao liked someone else, she might still be qualified to joke, but she admitted that she was indeed inferior to Li Xiyun, which was a bit far behind.

"It just looks like you don't have the slightest chance." Miss Qin lowered her eyes.

"Yes, I also had very confused moments, for example, I couldn't understand why she chose to be with Guan Kuo, but then I understood, just like no matter how good you are, I don't want to marry you, and you are the same, there are countless people who pursue you, and many of them are very good. Because the heart does not move, this is not something that can be forced, and if the heart is moved, it cannot be stopped, and there is always some unspeakable force in this world that pushes history forward. Xue Zhao nodded.

"Thank you for saying so much to me tonight." Miss Qin sat down.

The two of them stopped talking, for a long, long time.

The autumn night is deeply cool, but the faint shouting of killing in the distance is so ethereal and vain.

"Tonight's Beitang has come to an end, I feel uncomfortable and want to be alone." Xue Zhao suddenly broke the calm.

Now in the Xue Mansion, there are only two of them left, his mother and subordinates have left Chang'an before today, he has made all the arrangements, presumably the second half of his mother's life should be spent peacefully. If he wanted to be quiet, he only needed Miss Qin to leave, and it would be enough.

Miss Qin understood what he meant, stood up, and stood slim in the light of the candle flame.

"Okay, you can be quiet alone, I'll go outside and blow the wind." Her expression darkened again.

She and Xue Zhao will not have any results, maybe they will last for a lifetime, and they will only be in their current state.

She walked away.

"Yun'er." Xue Zhao suddenly spoke up again and called out to her.

She paused.

"I'm sorry."

The corners of her lips curled.

"No, you don't."

She left.

……

……

Miss Qin left, and Xue Zhao was the only one left in the house.

Miss Qin thought she understood the meaning of the "I'm sorry" he said at the end, but in fact she didn't understand.

He understands, but doesn't want to explain, and sometimes, it's just a suspense, okay.

He lay motionless in a wicker chair, staring blankly at the ceiling overhead.

Xue Fu reached its peak in his father's middle age until he was crippled, but it fell to the trough overnight.

He tried to drive some, bastard, but he still couldn't get out of the shadow.

During the period of General Weiyuan's defeat, he finally found some light, and he thought he could show value.

But the truth is that all that is left is destroyed.
