Chapter 22: Xi Yao's Determination

Chu Sheng doesn't like to talk, and he hasn't seen any big ups and downs in his mood, even if Xi Yao keeps talking behind him, he rubs his head at most, as if he has no choice but to send her away.

Xi Yao leaned against the wall, and heard the anger and contempt in his words clearly, she had never seen such a Chu Sheng, and she couldn't help muttering in her heart, it seems that she has had bad luck recently, and the enemy who can make Chu Sheng hate is definitely not an ordinary person, and it is not like playing with people taking their own lives, so it is better to keep a low profile during this time, and it is better to let go of the affairs of Lechuan Pavilion first.

The warm voice came again, but it was low: "In short, the situation of the Cash Xi family is not optimistic. In order to block Youyou's mouth and prevent people from leaving a handle to impeach and talk about him, Xi Jingming must have found Xi Yao, and received the false letter for help, and he was even more sure that Xi Yao was hiding in Chu Mansion. ”

"Xi Yao's parents died, and the old lady also died three years ago, leaving only Xi Yao alone in the long room, and she didn't have a good time after passing to the second room, she must have been forced to commit suicide by throwing herself into the river. Now Xi Ziyue believes that Xi Yao is a terrible person, and she must get rid of her before she returns to Xi's house, if she returns to Xi's house now, Xi Yao really has no way to live..."

"Letter for help..."Chu Sheng muttered, and at the same time, a sharp edge shot out of his eyes, which was unprecedentedly cold.

And Xi Yao, who was hiding behind the wall and eavesdropping, didn't look very good, uh... It's not bad, but it's already white, the more she listens to the cold sweat, the more she breaks out, she doesn't want to be a man who does her duty and can provoke so many enemies, the mysterious sect on the rivers and lakes, Xi Jingming, the head of the Xi family, and Xi Ziyue, the second daughter of the Xi family, are all ruthless people who are not easy to deal with.

She swallowed her saliva secretly, it was better to hide in Chu Mansion honestly and not go anywhere. She just thought like this, and after listening to the words of the two of them, she immediately changed her mind.

The two were silent for a moment, and Chu Sheng suddenly thanked him: "Thank you Brother Wen for the information you have provided for many days, if it weren't for you Xiyao, you might have been arrested a long time ago, if Xi Jingming sent troops to search tomorrow, I would definitely hide her, thank you!"

Damn, isn't it?!! Chu Mansion is one of the top nobles in the Tiansheng Dynasty, and it is not casually searched, but now Xi Jingming is so troubled that he wants to bring troops, which shows that the situation is serious. If she can avoid it once, what about the second time? She can't hide underground for the rest of her life, Xi Jingming will not give up, and it will also affect the Chu family, she can't be so selfish and drag Chu Sheng into the water for her own safety.

Xi Yao tugged at the corners of her mouth, shook her head with a wry smile, and now that she thinks about it, the Lechuan Pavilion on Duckweed Mountain has become the safest place...

"Brother Chu is polite. The man smiled in his warm voice, and said thoughtfully, "I don't know, can I ask Brother Chu a question?"

Chu Sheng was stunned for a moment, and then agreed: "Brother Wen, it's okay to ask." ”

The man smiled faintly, "Why did Brother Chu defend Xi Yao several times? I think it's not just because she has special abilities and can be used by the Chu family. But if Brother Chu cares about this girl, I'm afraid it's a little abrupt, the Chu family and the Xi family are in Nanyang City, not far away, why didn't Brother Chu mention this woman once before Xi Yao threw himself into the river. ”

Chu Sheng lowered his eyes, his narrow peach blossom eyes were still indifferent, and he spoke for a long time, "This Xiyao is not Bi Xiyao, the two are not the same person, how can they be compared." ”

The two said some more words and said goodbye to each other and went home, and when Chu Sheng turned a corner and walked to the back door of the Chu Mansion, there was no one in the corner, and the sack standing by the door was also removed.

......

"How can you take a vegetable slowly, I was worried for a while, thinking that you were been..."Mo Ying saw Xiyao coming in with a bag and hurriedly greeted him, but saw that the latter looked like he was out of his mind, and his face was pale, so he said with concern: "Why is your face so bad, aren't you scared by ghosts?!"

Mo Yingguan believed in the theory of those cow ghosts and evil gods.

Xi Yao shook her head, and reluctantly pulled out a smile and said, "It's okay, it's okay, it's just that I'm a little tired from training." ”

"Is it..."Mo Ying nodded suspiciously, rubbed her little head distressedly, and said in a sister-like tone: "Wait, I'll go and make you a bowl of ginger soup to warm up." ”

Before Xiyao could stop her, she had already turned around and went out. Xi Yao shook her head and lay on the bed with a snort, as if she was extremely tired, covering her face with the back of her hands, but two lines of tears flowed from her godless eyes.

She feels really tired of living in another world, although she practices seriously, but the danger always hits her head unexpectedly, assassination, heavenly fate, and the intrigue of the Xi family, she doesn't know another Xi Yao at all!

Presumably it was the woman who looked exactly like herself in the water that day, she was forced to jump into the river, if she arrived at the Xi family, would she still have a way to live? But she couldn't bear to drag Chu Sheng into the water, people took you in, taught you to practice, gave you weapons, and protected you, this is enough righteousness, now that you are in trouble, can you still bear to bring danger to him...

Xi Yao moved her hand, her eyes soaked in crystal tears were unprecedentedly firm, she seemed to have made a big decision, her fists were clenched, and she nodded fiercely to cheer herself up.

After drinking Mo Ying's ginger soup, the two turned off the lights, and after the breathing of the person next to them gradually calmed down, Xi Yao suddenly opened her eyes and looked sideways at Mo Ying.

These days, thanks to Mo Ying working for her in the kitchen, she has more time to practice. Mo Ying always takes care of her like a reliable big sister and is willing to listen to her. But now a farewell is probably a goodbye, Xi Yao sighed, turned over and got out of bed, and resolutely did not look back.

took the dry food and water to eat on the road from the kitchen, brought some necessary wound medicine, stuffed the messy things into the bag, and carefully hung the long whip close to her body, Xi Yao exhaled a long breath - Okay, the next road is really up to you!

Out of the small courtyard, she still couldn't hold back when she passed by Chu Sheng's room and stopped. There were still lights in the room, and the bright yellow light reflected the shadow of Chu Sheng's serious desk work, Xi Yao's nose suddenly became sore, and she almost cried again.

She rubbed her eyes, pinched her nose, and secretly reminded herself that she couldn't be unproductive, and since she had decided something, she couldn't go back!

As soon as she turned around, she stepped out of the gate of the Chu Mansion and walked north.

......

In the early morning of the second day, Mo Ying woke up early in the morning and saw the cups on Xiyao's bed folded neatly, just like when she first moved in. I thought that this little girl was really good, and in the past, she was still lying in the quilt at this time, and she didn't get up until she was late for training, and she never folded the quilt. Today he is diligent, and he gets up earlier than her.

On the other side, Chu Sheng waited at the training ground early, and today Xi Jingming will lead troops to Chu's house to search for people, Wen Hua came to tell him last night that he wanted to hide Xi Yao.

Xi Jingming, the old fox, knew that it was a fantasy to lead troops into the Chu Mansion with the strength of his Xi family, so he gave full play to his strength as a civil official, wrote a fold and handed it to the emperor. It not only clarified the public opinion that he was unkind to his younger brother, bought a good impression in front of the emperor, but also justifiably led the troops into the Chu Mansion, which was really a good plan.
