Liu Ye persuaded the Holy Maiden of Mingyue to surrender to Princess Qili, firstly, to protect the followers of the Xiling Sect from being wiped out, and secondly, to exonerate Princess Qili, so that the Qili family could help her intercede and exonerate her.

Under pressure from many sides, King Anxi had no choice but to compromise and order to let Princess Qili go, but General Xinbuzu, who hated her to the bone, resisted and refused to obey the order, and would rather die with Qili than withdraw his troops. It's just that his wish was not fulfilled, they fell into the abyss together, but Princess Qili was saved, and he couldn't turn a blind eye even if he died.

After experiencing these things, Princess Qili had a complete epiphany, let go of the grievances with Mingyue, and let go of the past feelings that were tangled in her heart. She promised Liu Ye that she would no longer pursue the responsibility of the Xiling Sect disciples, and was willing to leave them a way to live.

The Qili family used their huge power to find General Qiyi to apologize for Princess Qili's actions, and found the most reasonable explanation for her behavior. Not only did she not receive any punishment, but she had a meritorious role in exterminating the cult, and King Rest rewarded her with a lot of silk and jewelry.

Of course, these are all for outsiders to see, and the Liang Zi of King Anxi and Princess Qili is concluded, but they have to shake hands and make peace because of each other's forces. Qili resented her brother in her heart, he was her dependent, and she believed in the sustenance of family affection, but at the critical moment, he actually abandoned her and framed her in order to consolidate his position. The struggle for royal power is not strange, Xin Buzu is about to defect, Princess Qili can accept it, but she can't tolerate the betrayal of her brother.

However, at this point, hatred was of no avail, and for the sake of the peace of the dynasty, it was impossible for her to raise an army against her brother again. Besides, she had no intention of rebelling in the first place, so why cause more casualties. As long as the Rest dynasty can not be affected and the royal family continues to prosper, it is really nothing for her to suffer some grievances.

However, not being an enemy of Brother Wang does not mean that others can look down on her, Qili still controls the power of the entire Qili family, and no one in the palace dares to offend her, even the queen is obedient to her. It's just that the face and heart don't get along meaninglessly, Qili is perfunctory to these people, but she loves Kelinji very much, the aunt and nephew are getting closer and closer, and people who don't know still think that Qili is going to assist Prince Corinji to be king.

When he was alive, he liked to take a walk here, looking at the whole Stara Mountain, listening to the murmuring of the stream, bathing in the warm sunshine, breathing in the elegant and fragrant fragrance of flowers, indescribably comfortable and comfortable.

Although they have never gotten along with each other, and the concept of father is very vague, in Tu Qitang's heart, he is the closest person. Recalling that every time he underwent trials and encountered danger, it was as if there were a pair of hands in the dark that led him out of the predicament again and again, and every time he confronted the enemy, there would always be an invisible force behind him at the critical moment to help him overcome all the difficulties. Tu Qitang believes that his father has always been by his side, even if he can't see it, he can feel it.

"Holy Maiden, do you really want to dismiss the Xiling Sect?" The Southern Holy Maiden reluctantly looked at the intact altar, as well as the major Dharma Protector Saintesses and disciples who had been reluctant to leave for a long time, "However, the Xiling Sect has not been destroyed, we can come again!" ”

The Holy Maiden of the Bright Moon looked at the sect members kneeling in front of her, although she was reluctant in her heart, she could only ignore it indifferently: "Holy Maiden Nan, I have surrendered to Princess Qili, from now on, the Xiling Sect will no longer exist, and I am not your Holy Maiden." ”

"We all know that you're doing this to protect us from more lives." Nan Shengnu said, her eyes reddened slightly, "No matter what, you are our Holy Maiden, and in our hearts, the Xiling Sect will always exist. ”

The Holy Maiden of Bright Moon nodded with satisfaction: "I have been striving for fame and fortune in my life, and I have worked hard in the scenery, no matter how many wrong things I have done, I have never regretted it." Now too, the decision to surrender was made, and I have no regrets. You have followed me for many years, and you have indeed suffered a lot of grievances, and if I can't even save your lives, that is the biggest regret. Thankfully, it's not too late for me to make this decision, and it's comforting to see that you're safe and sound. Whether the Xiling Sect exists or not, on the contrary, does not matter. ”

"Holy Maiden, even if the Xiling Sect no longer exists, you and the Sect Master don't have to leave Stara Mountain! We won't leave, I hope you can stay, we can live as before, no longer care about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, just live in peace, can you stay? The Holy Maiden of the South still did not give up, trying to convince her and Tuqitang to stay in Stara Mountain, "The Holy Sound Sect Master is also here, and he is always by his side, isn't it your lifelong wish?" ”

"If we don't leave, the danger will still exist, and no one will tell us that the Mausoleum has been dismissed. Therefore, we have to go, if you are willing to stay, I hope you can really do it without asking about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and live in peace and quiet. Nan Shengnu smiled with relief, "As for the Holy Voice, he is already in my heart, and no matter where I go, I will be with him." ”

Seeing that the Holy Maiden of Mingyue insisted on leaving, the Southern Holy Maiden persuaded Tu Qitang to change her mind in a hurry: "Sect Master, don't you go?" You've grown up here, are you willing to leave? This is your home! ”

Tu Qitang looked at the Holy Maiden of the Bright Moon and understood why she was leaving, there were too many memories of her here, staying here, she could never start over. It's good to keep the good memories in your heart, and let the sad past pass away with the wind!

"Holy Maiden Nan, my mother and I have the same thoughts, since the Xiling Sect is gone, there is no point in us staying. Everyone live well, and he will meet one day. ”

"Sect Master, why can't you even ......" Nan Shengnu ran to Liu Ye's side again, took her hand and continued to persuade, "Princess Xie Wu, don't you really want to find a place with the sect leader to live in seclusion where no one disturbs, this is the most suitable place!" I assure you that no one will disturb you, and you and the Sect Master can live in peace for the rest of your life. ”

Liu Ye thought for a while, held her hand and said softly: "Don't be reluctant, don't be reluctant, when we settle down, I will tell you, when you want to meet, you can see each other at any time." We all need to start a new life, so why do we have to cling to the past? Don't be sad, we can still see each other often! ”

"That is to say, if a few of them don't leave, none of you will want to live in peace, and in the end, they will fight and kill each other, won't Mingyue's hard work be in vain?" The medicine gourd looked impatient, and patted the shoulder of the Nansheng Maiden, "You, don't think about it, life is an ordinary thing, what's so sad, our princess also said, we will meet again in the future, you will marry your daughter, go and see her when you want her, there is no need to be reluctant, you can't leave your daughter by your side for a lifetime!" ”

"Look at your analogy, the Southern Saintess is not married yet, where did she come from, can she understand the mood of marrying a daughter? Besides, this analogy is not appropriate, it should be said that the Southern Holy Maiden is going to get married, and she is reluctant to give up her mother's family! "The poisonous scorpion has always liked to contradict the medicine gourd, and this time it corrected him without exception.

"Hey, is she marrying her daughter, or is she marrying this girl, the meaning is not the same, they are all reluctant to relatives, reluctant to separate, there is no big difference!" The medicine gourd blew his beard and glared at him and argued, "I said that you old scorpion, you will bite the text and chew the words to clean up the useless, I think you are just idle and have nothing to look for!" What do you care about me, can the Southern Holy Maiden understand it? Nan Shengnu, tell me, can you understand my analogy just now? ”

Nan Shengnu looked at the pair of old living treasures with a smile and a smile, and nodded awkwardly: "Yes, I can understand." ”

"Look, she understands, the purpose of what I said has been achieved, so you don't care if I say it is appropriate or not." The medicine gourd is now majestic, and it is not easy to catch the handle, so I have to criticize the poisonous scorpion, "I see that you just can't get along with me, is it that I don't look for you to duel and you have itchy skin again, if so, don't do something that is not worth beating." ”

"Let's go, let's go, let's go to the duel, anyway, there's nothing to do now, instead of listening to your nagging here, it's better to clean you up and keep your voice down, so that you can be honest." The poisonous scorpion rolled up his sleeves and dragged the arm of the medicine gourd and walked out, "I've long seen that your crooked gourd is not pleasing to the eye, you always treat yourself as a dish, and you want to climb on my head to, hey, there is no window!" ”

"Let's go, who is afraid of whom, don't think you can beat me, don't forget, you are my defeat. Even if you have practiced hard all these years, you will never be my opponent! Hmph, what you can't do yourself, do you want to know how to die, hurry up and beg me for mercy now, maybe I'll consider not letting you die so ugly......"

"Shut up, you, a pound of ducks and half a pound of mouths, what you have practiced all these years is lip skills! Am I your defeated man? You're dreaming! If I had fought with you with all my might, you would have become a lonely ghost a long time ago, and I don't know this at all, I see that you have lived in vain for so many years......"

The medicine gourd and the poisonous scorpion raised the bar endlessly, if no one cared about them, it would be no problem to quarrel for a few hours in a row, but if they were allowed to fight, it was estimated that it would be difficult to distinguish the winner for a day and a night.

However, they have some effect on the old living treasure, you come and I count each other for a while, and the Southern Holy Maiden also feels less sad, and several Dharma Protector Holy Maidens can't help but bow their heads and snicker.

"Okay, okay, old gourd, poisonous scorpion, you are all first-class masters, you don't need to know more than everyone else. It's not too early, it's time for us to go down the mountain, have we packed our bags? ”

Liu Ye came forward to relieve them, and the medicine gourd didn't really want to work hard, so he took advantage of the situation to find the bottom of the stairs: "Okay, for the sake of our princess's face, I will let you go today." ”

"It's disrespectful for your crooked gourd's blood to defile the altar, so I'll let you go for the time being, and let you live a few more days." The poisonous scorpion has no mercy on its mouth, but the soles of its feet are open like oil.

The Southern Saintess and the disciples sent the Mingyue Saintess and others down the mountain, chatting about family life along the way, and they could ignore the sadness of the imminent separation. When she waved goodbye, she still couldn't help crying and her eyes were red, the Holy Maiden of the Bright Moon gave them everything in the Xiling Sect, and she didn't take anything away, she used to think that she was the most ruthless person in the world, but now it seems that she is also the most affectionate!

The three carriages drove to the border of rest, and the Holy Maiden of the Bright Moon never looked back, she thought that she would die of old age in Stara Mountain, but she did not expect that there would be a day to leave. She doesn't regret her choice, it's true, not to comfort them. She really figured it out, it was not worth fighting all her life for a false name, and it was even more sinful to involve the lives of those who followed her.

Suddenly, the carriage stopped, and the Holy Maiden of the Bright Moon vaguely heard who Tu Qitang and Liu Ye were talking to, and lifted the curtain to look at it, it turned out to be Princess Qili and Ke Linji. The Bright Moon Holy Maiden trembled in her heart, and there were bursts of warmth in her heart, there were many things she didn't expect, such as that they would come to see them off. It is not easy for many years of enemies to turn hostility into jade silk, and if they could think more about each other back then, they would not have hated each other for 20 years. She has no extravagant hope for her to return to her arms after giving up her loved ones for many years, as long as he no longer hates her, she has nothing else to ask for.

Princess Qili received news from Liu Ye and learned that they had left to rest today, and consulted Ke Linji's wishes, and her aunt and nephew came to the border early in the morning to wait. I don't know when we will see each other, but at least we should come to see them off.

For this princess of anxiety, Qili is grateful, if it weren't for her, I'm afraid she wouldn't have been truly liberated. Qili knew that she was going to live in seclusion with Tu Qitang, so she sent a lot of gold and silver treasures as a thank you and a funding.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, these precious treasures can't be taken away." Liu Ye knew at a glance that those were priceless treasures, and hurriedly shirked them.

"I know you're not rare for these things, but I really can't think of anything to give, so it's better to think about it as something tacky and practical." Princess Qili insisted that she accept it, "Okay, don't shirk it anymore, this is my heart." Princess Jiewei, I won't say much else, if you are in trouble in the future, just come to me, as long as I can do it, I will definitely do my best to help you. ”

"Thank you, Princess Qili." Liu Ye was moved in her heart, and being recognized at such an isolated and helpless time was the greatest comfort to her.

"You're welcome, we don't have to thank each other." Princess Qili leaned on Liu Ye's shoulder and looked at Tu Qitang on the side with a smile, "I really envy your courage, it was you who made me understand that happiness depends on oneself." Fortunately, it's not too late for me to understand, my happiness is to make the people I care about happy, you say, is it better for Kolinji to continue to be a prince, or let him be king? ”

Liu Ye looked at the two brothers, Tu Qitang and Ke Linji, and said with a smile: "I think, it depends on his wishes, if he is happy to be a carefree prince, why bring him endless troubles." ”

"Well, that's right, it's up to him to make it happen, no matter what he wants, I'll help him make it happen." Princess Qili looked back at the other two carriages, the medicine gourd and the poisonous scorpion were squatting on the ground arguing about some kind of reptile, and the Holy Maiden of the Bright Moon lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out, meeting Princess Qili's gaze.

Princess Qili smiled slightly, and walked towards Mingyue generously: "Don't worry, I will protect the peace of Stara Mountain, as long as they don't do anything that ignores the king's law, no one dares to touch a single hair of their hair." ”

The Bright Moon Holy Maiden nodded with a smile: "Thank you, in this way, I can rest assured." ”

"Mingyue ......" Princess Qili hesitated and asked, "If there is no Holy Sound, we can be best friends, right?" ”

"Aren't we now?" The Bright Moon Holy Maiden asked rhetorically, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

Kelinji gave Tu Qitang a dagger inlaid with seven-colored gems: "Last time, in order to save your aunt, you lost your most convenient weapon, I have been choosing this dagger for a long time, and it is also very easy to use, I hope you like it." ”

Tu Qitang took the dagger and gestured a few times, and said happily: "This is really a good knife, very useful." ”

Seeing that he was satisfied with the dagger, Colinji also laughed: "It's good if you like it, I was worried that you wouldn't like it before!" ”

"Why, as long as you pick it, I like it." Tu Qitang carefully put away the dagger and slapped his shoulders with both hands, "You have to take good care of yourself in the future, if someone dares to bully you, come to the eldest brother......"

Tu Qitang paused, and said apologetically: "No, I don't deserve to be your big brother, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't have sought death for a while." ”

"Big brother, don't say that......" Collinji lowered his head, "I'm still worried that you won't recognize me as a useless brother, and it's all because I'm not good enough to cause this disaster, and now it's still causing you and your mother to go away." I'm really useless, I can't do anything......"

"Don't be presumptuous, Colingey, keep your head up, you have to be a man with your head held high!" Tu Qitang put his arm around his shoulders and took him to see Mingyue, "Let's go, let's say a few words to my mother!" ”

"No, I, I'm still ......" Colinji looked at the Bright Moon Saintess from a distance, uncomfortable, "She won't forgive me, I did that kind of thing to the Xiling Sect......"

"Let's go, my mother won't blame you, you called your mother kiss just now, don't tell me, you still won't recognize her!" Tu Qitang couldn't help but say that he pulled him to Mingyue, "Mother, Kelinji is worried that you are still complaining about him, what do you say?" ”

Kelinji looked away embarrassedly, embarrassed to look at the Bright Moon Holy Maiden, the Bright Moon Holy Maiden came over, held his hand, and looked at his face gently: "How can there be a mother in the world who complains about the child?" Colinji, don't blame yourself, it's all caused by your mother, and you shouldn't be blamed. ”

"Mother...... "Kelinji looked at her in a daze, and asked in disbelief, "But, I ruined your hard work and ruined the Xiling Sect, do you really blame me?" ”

The Holy Maiden of Bright Moon smiled and shook her head: "I didn't fulfill my responsibilities as a mother, do you blame me?" ”

Kelinji hurriedly shook his head: "That's all in the past, I won't be as narrow as before, how can I blame my mother?" ”

"yes, it's all in the past." The Holy Maiden of the Bright Moon had red eyes, stepped forward to hug Ke Linji, and choked up, "I'm sorry, my child, my mother didn't take care of you......"

Colingie buried his head in the neck of the Bright Moon Saintess, closed his eyes, let the tears slide down, and breathed in her warm breath, which he told himself was the smell of his mother.

Watching the carriage drift away in the sunset, Princess Qili held Kelinji's hand and said softly, "Aunt will always remember this moment." ”

Colingey nodded, why shouldn't he!
