For some reason, this sentence made Xuanyuan Yu's scalp tingle for a while, and she intuitively felt that her next question was not so simple, but it was not easy to avoid, as long as she nodded silently.

As long as she didn't think about Yan Rumei and didn't ask about Shen Ao's whereabouts, he could breathe a sigh of relief for the time being.

As for how to explain it, Xuanyuan Yu thought in his heart, as long as it could drag on for a while, he would communicate with Yan Rumei again, and it would be best to figure it out slowly.

Xue'er was not polite: "Xuanyuan, you and Yan Rumei, when did you learn the news that I fell into the hands of the Shadow Moon Palace Lord?" ”

Xuanyuan hesitated for a moment, but still replied truthfully: "When I walked to the foot of Luoxia Mountain." ”

"In other words, before you attacked Nanping, you already knew that my people were not in the Chengtian Sect?" Cher asked again.

Xuanyuan Yu seemed to have guessed what Xue'er was going to ask, and sighed: "The arrow is on the string, I have to send it!" ”

"So," Cher lowered her eyelids, "you didn't attack Nanping all to save me. ”

Her tone was indifferent, as if she was stating something that had nothing to do with her, but it made Xuanyuan Yu panic for no reason: "Xue'er, I ......"

His dark eyes became deeper and deeper, as if he wanted to see through the woman in front of him: "I have my troubles. ”

Xue'er raised her head and met his gaze: "What kind of hardship, do you want to dominate the world?" ”

"Cher!" Xuanyuan's voice suddenly raised, interrupting Xue'er's words, but then softened again, "You really misunderstood me. ”

He sighed and sat down on the edge of the bed, reaching out to hold her hands exposed outside the thin quilt, but Cher quietly avoided them.

Xuanyuan's gaze sank again, and his heart sank with it, and he took a deep breath for a long time before he said, "Even if I let go of Zhong Liyang and Min Susu, in your heart, I am still a cruel murderer, right?" ”

"Because I'm the young master of the Chengtian Sect?" Without waiting for Xue'er to answer, he spoke again, with a hint of questioning in his tone, "Xue'er, this time, you are really wrong!" ”

His tone seemed to be hurt, and he stabbed Xue'er hard in the heart, making her heart ache, and finally raised her head, met his gaze, and waited for his next step.

Xuanyuan Yu sighed: "The person who wants me to dominate the world is not only one Chengtian Sect Master. ”

Cher froze for a moment; "What do you mean?"

Xuanyuan Yu didn't answer immediately, but fell into the reminiscence of the past: "Regarding the identity of the young master of the Chengtian Sect, I admit it. When Yan Rumei was in Liujia Village, I also admitted what she said when she revealed my identity. But ......"

Xue'er avoided his hands, but he couldn't avoid his shoulders, he tightly held the thin shoulders of the girl opposite, and stared straight into her eyes: "My heart for you, but it's true!" ”

"From the first time I saw you, my heart no longer belonged to me." Xuanyuan's hands were trembling slightly, as if he was afraid that Xue'er would not believe him, and his eyes were always staring at her eyes, "From the moment you cut your wrists and threw yourself into the sea, you can't pull it out in my heart!" ”

"When I first saw the forehead sand on your eyebrows, I knew your identity, so I kept telling myself in my heart that I can't be tempted by you, I can't!" Xuanyuan was like a helpless child, "However, for the first time, I know that there are some things that I can't control if I'm rational enough!" ”

Xue'er listened in a daze, and her thoughts seemed to have reached the original magical seven-colored lotus island.

Of course, she still remembered his defensiveness and indifference at the time, and remembered the scene when he deliberately praised the "Hua Tian" on his head.

But she also remembered that after the seven-colored lotus island sank, Xuanyuan Yu refused to give up on her, and took her step by step, with difficulty, to the top of the cliff!

was a little dazed for a while, and Xue'er found that she really couldn't understand the man in front of her.

And Xuanyuan Yu's voice continued: "Until Yan Rumei appeared, forcing you to finally cut your wrists and throw yourself into the sea, I thought to myself, when you are alive, I have to take into account your identity as a saint of Sangong, and I can't be tempted by you." But your people are no longer there, what is the meaning of being a saint of sangong? I let my feelings go and let myself think about you without any scruples......"

He seemed to be back to the moment when Cher threw herself into the sea, and his chest suddenly burst, and the blood beads sprayed into the air like agate......

Of course, Xuanyuan Yu would not tell Xue'er that mouthful of blood he vomited for her, let alone tell her, since then, as long as he thinks of her, his heart will hurt, and he can't breathe in pain, and he can't help himself!

Later, he saved Shan Yu just because of their similar clothes, and then when he sent Shan Yu back to Providence Villa, he saw Xue'er's back again.

Xuanyuan Yu asked Xue'er, "Do you remember Yingli?" ”

Xue'er nodded, but her thoughts had not yet been withdrawn from Shan Yu's body, she was thinking about the scene when Shan Yu first returned to the Providence Villa, but when she thought about it, it was the shocking red under Shan Yu's body, so she fell silent again.

"I told you that Yingli grew up watching me, and for me, he was a master and a father, but he was such a person who I respected for twenty-five years, and in the end he took advantage of me!" There was a hint of confusion in Xuanyuan's voice, and at the same time there was indescribable anger and helplessness, "Or, taking advantage of my feelings for you!" ”

"He said, as long as I can appear in front of you in a different identity, you can accept me, I will believe it, let him arrange everything, I trusted and relied on him so much at that time......" Xuanyuan's smile was sarcastic and bitter, and his voice was sarcastic and bitter, "He not only deceived me, but also deceived ......"

"So I turned into the third prince of Dongling," Xuanyuan paused, "I also lied to "whom, there is no follow-up," "In fact, you know the rest of the matter." And until I followed Xuanyuan back to the Dongling Palace, I always trusted him. However, all this changed after I secured the position of the third prince! ”

This point, in fact, Xuanyuan Yu didn't say it, Xue'er could also detect some of it, after all, the changes in the attitude of Emperor Xuanyuan and Yingli towards her were all there.

"He, they, just want to use my feelings for you to make me put aside the identity of the young master of the Chengtian Sect and fully accept the identity of the third prince of Dongling, even the old man was kept in the dark by him!"

Xue'er paused for a moment, but still cautiously interjected: "That...... Xuanyuan, the old man is the leader of the Chengtian Sect, right? ”

Xuanyuan nodded: "Yes, I later learned that what Yingli said to the old man was that I would impersonate the identity of the third prince of Dongling, inherit the throne of Dongling, and wait for the throne to be stable, and then give him the throne Zen as his 'father'!" ”

When the word "father" was finally mentioned, Xuanyuan Yu's tone had a trace of doubt about the lack of delay, obviously because he already had a trace of doubt in his heart about the "father" of the Chengtian Sect Master.

Not only Xuanyuan was puzzled, but even Xue'er couldn't understand: "The bloodline of the royal family, how can it be so easy to confuse?" The emperor of Dongling is not a fool! ”

"The questions you can think of, how can I not think of them, the old man naturally thinks of them." The corners of Xuanyuan's mouth hooked up a touch of mockery, "But don't forget Yingli's former identity, his relationship with Xuanyuande!" ”

Xue'er froze for a moment, and her former identity was just like Yang Jin later, the chief guard of the emperor's side.

Xuanyuan shook his head lightly: "It's not as simple as you think, and I only learned later that the relationship between Yingli and Xuanyuan De is a fateful friendship!" Xuanyuande's trust in Yingli is far greater than that of any other person, including his children! ”

"That'...... According to what you say," Xue'er's eyes widened, revealing a look of incredulity, "Is your third prince true or not, just a matter of shadowing a sentence?" ”

Xuanyuan nodded, his expression a little ugly: "After I returned to Dongling from the extreme north, I began to investigate my life experience, and the result was ......"

Xue'er's heart also hung with Xuanyuan's narration: "What is the result? ”

"The result is that I am in Xiangying County, and I can't find any clues about Ruo Zhining and Ruo Xiucai!" Xuanyuan's face was a little ugly, "I suspect that all this is made up by them!" ”

Xue'er's eyes widened in surprise, and she couldn't react for a while: "What do you mean?" ”

Xuanyuan Yu sighed: "That's what it means on the surface, when Yingli said, let me pretend to be the illegitimate son of Xuanyuan De and Ruo Zhining, and enter the palace instead of the third prince of Concubine Yun, so that I can inherit the throne in the future." ”

Is that okay too?

Xue'er's eyes widened incredulously as if she had heard a tale from the Arabian Nights: "But, Emperor Dongling also believes it?" ”

Xuanyuan sighed: "You should also know a little bit about the situation of the Dongling royal family at that time, an unsuccessful British king, and three nephews who are eyeing each other. There is no better option for Regulus. ”

"But......" Xue'er hesitated for a moment, but still said what was in her heart, "Even if it's your own nephew, it's better than an outsider who is not related by blood, right?" ”

Xuanyuan shook his head gently: "If it is an ordinary family, it is naturally as you said, no matter how poor the nephew is, it is better than an outsider, but now it is the royal family, although the situation is different." ”

Xue'er still couldn't figure it out: "What's the difference?" ”

Xuanyuan said: "Whether it is any one of these three county kings who ascends the throne and becomes the emperor, do you think that even if it is useless, Xuanyuan Min will be willing?" ”

Xue'er was stunned for a moment, but finally shook her head gently. Of course not! How can he be willing to give up his position to his cousins?

"But what kind of person Xuanyuan Min is, you must know it in your heart." Xuanyuan Yu said, "In this case, whether he can succeed to the throne or not, there is only a dead end!" ”

Xuanyuan Yu sneered: "How could Xuanyuan have the heart to cut off his only bloodline? ”

However, this switch is completely different for Xuanyuan Yu, an outsider!

Xuanyuan Yu is not a real royal bloodline, as long as this point is always firmly grasped by Xuanyuan Min, he will not dare to move the other party!

Once she figured it out, Xue'er couldn't help but feel a trace of sympathy for Xuanyuan's current situation.

It's just a struggle to survive in the cracks of various forces.

"I figured these things out later, and I was confused at the time, so I went to see the old man again." Xuanyuan's words suddenly changed, "I wanted to ask the old man about my background, but the result was ......"
