When he realized that this was Emperor Quan Yuhuang who finally got An Ning and her heart, and at the same time, this was the real reason why he missed An Ning, Jiang Qingyun's heart suddenly throbbed.

It only hurt for a while, but it sharply made this foreign minister, who was graceful and elegant, but had a tough diplomatic style, his eyes red.

Does he love peace so much?

Jiang Qingyun asked himself.

Seem...... The answer is that he doesn't love peace that much.

For him, his wife just eats and sleeps together and spends the rest of his life with each other, so that his life is not so boring, and the most important thing is that he can give an explanation to his parents and give the Jiang family an explanation. Whether there are children or not, whether there are heirs or not, he really doesn't care.

He just thinks that people's lives are so long and so short, if there is only one person in this short and long life, how boring would it be?

Xinran will get married sooner or later, and his parents will grow old sooner or later, won't he be the only one left at that time?

Eating alone, sleeping alone, doing everything alone, how sad is that?

For him, his wife is really not a life partner or a soul confidant. No, for him, it is an existence that can accompany him, and the two of them will accompany each other, so as not to make each other so sad.

Love?

He's gotten it, it's wonderful, it's really good.

But in his opinion, it seems that it is just like that, nothing is indispensable.

Jiang Qingyun must admit that he is a man who is extremely indifferent by nature. Quan Yuhuang's indifference and Anning's indifference were all caused by their experiences and circumstances when they were children. They are not inherently cold people in their bones. He is different from Emperor Quan Yu, he has remained indifferent from the bottom of his bones.

He also doesn't have much affection for his parents. It's just that it was the person who gave him life, and he had the obligation to take care of them and provide for them in their old age. In this world, the only person who will make him emotionally invested and make him no longer indifferent is his sister, Jiang Xinran.

Only Jiang Xinran can make his extremely indifferent heart have a trace of warmth.

Therefore, he is willing to spoil his sister to heaven, he will give whatever his sister wants, and he will give what his sister does not want.

He originally thought that his extremely indifferent heart would only be touched when he saw Xinran. But the appearance of An Ning broke his plan for a life that was more detailed than the code for middle school students.

An Ning appeared in his life so casually, and it left a trace. But this trace seems to be difficult to fade away.

He originally thought that An Ning was an extremely suitable wife for him. If An Ning could become his wife, they would be very harmonious together and would never quarrel. But if there is much love, it is really a lie.

His ideal relationship between husband and wife does not need to be so hot love. As long as you look at me and I look at you, and two people respect each other like guests, that is the best state.

When did it start that peace and tranquility lived in his heart little by little?

Jiang Qingyun couldn't find this answer himself.

He only knew that when he saw that Emperor Quan Yu had obtained the unreserved love of an egoist like him, he was very jealous of Emperor Quan Yu. This kind of negative emotion of jealousy grew and grew madly in his heart.

Jealous enough not to make him unrecognizable, nor to make him do anything.

It's just deep down......

Seems like a first taste of failure?

Jiang Qingyun hooked the corners of his mouth in a complicated way, and reached out to pinch the bridge of his nose hard.

He, Jiang Qingyun, has never lost in his life.

Losing his peace and losing to Emperor Quan Yu was the first time he tasted defeat.

The taste, as he expected, was very uncomfortable.

Jiang Qingyun is not a man who immerses himself in emotions, he is as perfect as a robot.

Jiang Xinran once described her brother, saying that her brother is perfect like a robot. Every move is already programmed by the program. Her brother would never do anything other than programming.

Such a Jiang Qingyun is tired of living, others don't know. But his ability to control his emotions at any time is indeed a little creepy.

A person, a person with seven emotions and six desires!

How can there be no mood swings? Even if he is the fifth master of Quan, it is impossible for him to perfectly control his emotions anytime and anywhere.

But Jiang Qingyun just can.

Such a person is admirable, but probably every normal person will be afraid of people like Jiang Qingyun.

A person can even control his emotions strictly, what else can't he do?

He can be so ruthless to himself, wouldn't he be even more ruthless to others?

Jiang Xinran loves her brother very much, but deep in her heart, she is also afraid of her brother. Herein lies the reason.

In her twenties, she had never seen her brother have any emotional outbursts and could not control himself.

After so many years of living like a perfect robot, Jiang Xinran felt that her brother was quite scary anyway.

Her brother's terrible is what makes her afraid from the bottom of her bones. Emperor Quan Yuhuang is terrible and ruthless, but Jiang Xinran is not afraid.

After giving himself less than five minutes, Jiang Qingyun forcibly pulled his thoughts back.

He grabbed the phone in front of his desk, and the moment he raised his eyelids, he was no longer the Jiang Qingyun who tasted failure for the first time, he was still the youngest and most promising vice minister in the history of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

"Hello? I'm Jiang Qingyun......"

……

Nangong family mansion.

“…… Don't you want to tell me something? ”

Nangong Ji sat on the sofa opposite his father, expressionless.

"Okay......" Old man Nangong was in a wheelchair, paralyzed by a high position for many years, making his facial expressions difficult to control. If anyone wanted to read his inner thoughts from Old Man Nangong's face, it was absolutely impossible.

Because even the old man Nangong himself couldn't control his facial expressions. Sometimes he wanted to laugh, but the expression he made was even uglier than crying.

Nangong Ji looked at his father expressionlessly, "You have already decided everything for me, and you didn't ask my opinion before making a decision." And now what do you want to hear from me? Father. ”

The blunt 'father', Nangong Ji has always called his father like this.

"You got me back from Jiangnan Province so that I could help you deal with my best brother. You know how deep my relationship with Emperor Quan Yu is, you know. But you still want me to help you deal with my own brother. ”

"I think you're crazy. Emperor Quan Yuhuang is your brother, and I am your father! You don't help the Nangong family, but you think about Emperor Quan Yu. You're sick, and you're not sick. ”

"You are the one who is not lightly ill. Father, more than 20 years ago, for your own selfish interests, you framed the powerful family who was an ally with you, and you betrayed your promise. Now, you're going to get it wrong. It's you, not me, who is sick. Nangong Ji suddenly pulled the corners of her mouth contemptuously, "But what you said is not wrong, I am the son of the Nangong family." The Nangong family is what I am really responsible for. As the future heir of the Nangong family, I must be responsible for the Nangong family, and I will also lead the Nangong family to go better and further. I can't let the Nangong family have any mistakes. So, I'm back, according to your order, from Jiangnan Province. ”

Old Man Nangong nodded with satisfaction, but his expression was obviously not satisfied, and he said, "You only have this, which will make me feel that you are my son." ”

Put the Nangong family in the first place everywhere. The Nangong family is above their personal interests.

"Father, I will only do what is good for the Nangong family. I will never help you achieve your ambitions. Your ambitions, yours. Not mine, I don't need to be responsible for your ambitions. Nangong Ji had already made it very clear, but his father didn't seem to understand.

Old man Nangong thought that his son was definitely on his side.

"I don't care about your brotherhood with Emperor Quan Yu, and I don't care. You remember, you are the son of the Nangong family and the future heir of the Nangong family. The rise and fall of the Nangong family is in your hands. ”

"Yes, I understand that very well. I have never forgotten that. I don't remember it all the time. ”

"What did the Nangong family do twenty years ago—"

"Father, what I want to correct you is that what happened twenty years ago was not done by the Nangong family, but by you."

"What's the difference? I am the patriarch of the Nangong family, and what I do is what the Nangong family does. ”

The Nangong family nodded, "Okay, you are the patriarch of the Nangong family, I can't object to your decision, let alone refute it." ”

But the patriarch of the Nangong family must be him. Therefore, no one can object to and refute the decision he made, and his father, naturally, can't either.

"You know Emperor Quan Yu's character better than me. Twenty years ago, the Nangong family treacherously framed the Quan family. With the character of Emperor Quan Yu, there is absolutely no room for relaxation in this matter. Therefore, if you want to keep the Nangong family, the only thing you can do now is to concoct the incident of twenty years ago in the same way. As long as Emperor Quan Yu is dead, no one will be able to damage and harm the Nangong family. ”

Nangong Ji just smiled coldly and didn't answer.

Knowing how arrogant and noble his son is, and the person his son admires can become a brother with him, such a relationship cannot be easily parted with by his son. But Old Man Nangong was not worried, because he knew too well that as long as his son was for the good of Nangong's family, he could do anything. betrays his former brother, and he will never hesitate.

Old man Nangong, a person who betrayed his friend, how could he understand the deep relationship between Nangong Ji and Emperor Quan Yu?

In the opinion of the old man Nangong, Emperor Quan Yu will never forgive the Nangong family for what he has done. Since that's the case, there's nothing to say, it's better to fight to the death.

Either you die or I die.

It's as simple as that.

The old man Nangong is 100% sure that his son will definitely betray Emperor Quan Yu and stand in the Nangong family.

Indeed, as the old man Nangong thinks, Nangong Ji ranks his brotherhood with Emperor Quan Yu after the Nangong family. But what the old man Nangong didn't know was that Nangong Ji had already made a perfidy with Emperor Quan Yu about the Nangong family's perfidy to the Quan family more than 20 years ago.

When the old man Nangong died, he couldn't believe that his son would become a 'spy' of Emperor Quan Yu. Yes, in the eyes of the old man Nangong, Nangong Ji's actions and choices were to betray the Nangong family and become Emperor Quan Yu's 'spy'.

But what really thinks about the Nangong family is Nangong Ji. What the old man Nangong wants to keep is not the Quan family at all, it is himself!

He didn't want his treachery to be exposed to the world, and he was afraid of Emperor Quan Yu's revenge!

The truly selfish person is the old man Nangong, and the person who really puts the Nangong family above his own interests is Nangong Ji.
