Chapter Seventy-One: If You Don't Change Your Heart, I'll Believe

After reciting the heart-clearing mantra ten times silently, the blood red surging in Wen Tiantian's eyes gradually faded.

He retracted his feet and took a step back, secretly took a deep breath to bring himself back to his senses, glanced at the three thugs who were lying on the ground and rolling, and said in a low voice: "Don't roll yet?" ”

"You...... You! ”

The leading kid crawled up and stood up, covering his face with one hand, and pointing at Wen Tiantian with the other hand tremblingly, wanting to say a cruel word, lest his face be lost in front of his little brother. However, just as he squinted his eyes and looked at the woman, the words that came to his mouth were stuck in his throat, his teeth chattered, and he couldn't say anything.

Wen Tiantian tilted her head slightly, raised her right hand and moved her lower wrist, the click of the bone joints turning in their ears, only to feel that the wind was blowing behind them, and goosebumps climbed up their necks.

"Withdraw, withdraw!"

The leading boy was trembling as he spoke, and he was limped away by the two younger brothers.

It's horrible! This woman is terrible!

The beaten boy, who was lying on the ground and couldn't get up, was also trembling and struggling to slowly retreat.

Seeing that the three stinky boys had run away, Wen Tiantian looked back at the student who had been beaten, walked slowly to his side, squatted down under the boy's frightened gaze, took out a silk handkerchief from his arms and handed it to him.

"Thank you......"

The boy took it carefully with trembling hands, but did not dare to wipe the blood from his face.

Wen Tiantian, who was masked, sighed softly, his eyes swept around, and the injuries on the boy's body immediately fell on the corners of his bloodshot mouth, and said in a low voice: "If you don't work hard to resist, how can you be worthy of Mr. Jiang's cultivation?" He certainly doesn't want the students he teaches to be cowards. ”

After saying that, he turned around and left, not looking at the boy's painful and tangled expression again.

It's not that she's cold, stingy with a few words of comfort. It's just that there are thousands of people in this world who are in deep suffering, and if everyone is waiting for someone else to redeem them, then who will be the savior?

People need to learn to stand up on their own, not to be helped up.

The boy who sat on the ground behind him looked at the woman's back with a handkerchief and did not get up for a long time......

The short episode did not affect her mood of wandering around the academy, watching the students running around after class, and the little gloom caused by the incident just now was also dispelled, and her heart was full of peace.

"Sure enough, I still need to go out often and have some fun."

Jiang Simo didn't come back all day, and Wen Tiantian got into the carriage and went back after the students got out of school. Looking at the plaque of Nianying Academy bathed in the sunset, I couldn't help but sigh lightly and put down the curtains.

"The girl is in a bad mood, did you encounter something in the academy?"

The coachman saw that she looked a little lonely, and was worried that the prince would ask after she went back, so he asked carefully.

"Nope." Wen Tiantian's voice came from the car, with a slight chuckle that couldn't be heard, "I used to work for others like you, and I never understood why people work, but today's trip seems to understand a little." ”

"Hey, girl, you just think too much, of course you work to fill your stomach, otherwise who wants to work in vain if you are so tired?"

His idea is so simple, if he has money and can live a life without worrying about food and clothing, he wants to do so much.

"But girl, if you say something you shouldn't say, why do you have to come out and find things to do by yourself if you are so good to you, if you have time to accompany the prince, you have everything, right?"

Wen Tiantian rolled her eyes silently, "You are still too young and have little knowledge." Not every woman is like those aristocratic ladies who are content with men eating and drinking, I don't want to revolve around him all day long, I'm annoyed if he doesn't bother me! In case one day your prince has another woman outside, and I become a yellow-faced woman who doesn't know anything, he will definitely dump me and marry a new love. ”

"The girl is too worried. Our prince is not the kind of person who likes the new and hates the old, you will understand it if you spend a few years with him. ”

Wen Tiantian snorted twice and said no more, these were his people, of course they spoke to him. However, Qiu Yan so happily let herself come to the academy to be Jiang Simo's assistant, and she shouldn't speculate about him stingily.

Well, it seems that you have to take the initiative to report when you go back, so as not to turn over the vinegar jar at home again.

When I arrived home by the carriage, Qiu Yan had already returned, and was sitting in the front hall watching the excerpts while drinking tea and waiting.

"Hey, why did you come back so early today? All the things in the palace have been dealt with? Wen Tiantian took off her cloak and handed it to Peach, her eyes caught a glimpse of the hills on the table, and couldn't help but cover her mouth and snicker, "Are you worried about me when you run back before you finish your work?" ”

"That's right, I'm worried that you won't want to go home if you play with that Jiang Gongzi." Fang Qiuyan smiled and hugged the little girl who was walking towards her, and sat on her lap, "Are you still happy today?" ”

"Happy, Jiang Gongzi taught me a little spell, and then he left. So I walked around the college with the students for a day, and I also ate a simple meal in their canteen, which was the kind of dish by plate, which was very delicious! When you're not busy, I'll take you over to try it, although the big pot of rice is not as exquisite as at home, but it tastes great, you will definitely like it. ”

The little girl was dancing and gesturing, very excited. Fang Qiuyan looked at her with a smile, and the tiredness in her eyes dissipated a lot.

"It's good if you're happy. Later, after dinner, I will rest early, tomorrow is the plum feast, you may have to get up early to make up, don't lie in bed! ”

"You know, how can you be like an old father, you have to worry about everything, and I'm not a child!"

"And you're not a child?" Finger poked her bulging little face, and teased, "Tomorrow's plum banquet will be attended by many famous and noble women, and they will all dress up seriously, my little princess can't be compared, otherwise you will be jealous when you see a beautiful woman coming to talk." ”

"Cut, I'm not you, so I won't be jealous!" Wen Tiantian pursed her lips, hooked her hands around his neck and leaned against his neck socket, and her shallow breath fell on his chest, which was warm.

"What's wrong? Wasn't you very happy just now, but you weren't happy when you mentioned that you were going to enter the palace tomorrow? If you don't want to go, we can find an excuse to postpone the banquet, and I'll be with you all day at home, okay? ”

"No, I'm just a little nervous. I've never been to any banquets when I'm so old, and I panic at the thought of seeing so many dignitaries, and if I don't behave well, I will definitely embarrass you, so stressful. Wen Tian said sullenly.

"What am I afraid of? It's a big deal that you stay by my side the whole time, just pull me around whatever you want to eat, play, and whatever others think. Fang Qiuyan thought about it, she should still tell the arrangements for tomorrow, lest she panic when she saw the scene of the judge Tianming.

"Tiantian, in addition to going to the banquet tomorrow, Zihe and I have some things to deal with. You know that I was wounded on the battlefield, and that there was something else going on in that battle, and we suspect that it had something to do with the sorcerers of the Eastern Prosperity Kingdom. Tomorrow we will dispose of the informant that the other side has planted in the DPRK, and it may be a bit hectic. ”

"You're going to do something?" Wen Tiantian sat up and stared at him, her mouth open with a look of surprise.

Qiu Yan reached out to support her chin that was about to fall to the ground, and said calmly: "If it wasn't for something to do, I wouldn't be too lazy to participate in that kind of wine and meat banquet." As for the Queen Mother and the Little Emperor, you can simply say hello to them, and let them know you so that they can receive gifts when we get married in the future. ”

"Poof! Do you still want to take advantage of your marriage to receive a wave of gifts? Wen Tiantian couldn't cry or laugh.

"Not really!" At this time, Fang Qiuyan seemed to be a little fox, hooked the corners of his mouth and said carefully, "Because I lost a battle, I not only lost 50,000 brothers, but also lost three years. The debt of human life will soon be recovered from Dongsheng, and the gift money for our marriage is more than the three years of Yulu, and it will all be handed over to you at that time, even if the financial power of our family is passed over to you, I will just make money in the future. ”

"Don't don't, I'm bad at arithmetic, don't let me take care of the money!" Wen Tiantian waved her hand again and again, "Besides, it's all your money, what's the matter with me?" Now that I have a job, I can save a little bit of money. ”

Fang Qiuyan's eyes suddenly deepened, and her magnetic voice was full of seriousness: "Tiantian, I promised to give you a worry-free life before, and I will never let you run around for money in the future, and the things that happened in the Lu family will never happen again." ”

Wen Tiantian looked at him, it seemed that the scene in the courtyard must have been extremely terrifying at that time to leave such a deep impression on him, and he was unwilling to let her go through such a terrible thing in order to earn a little living expenses.

"Autumn Yan ......"

Fingers lightly touched the small mask on his face, and Wen Tiantian's heart was mixed, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

Holding her hand, Fang Qiuyan said in a deep voice: "In the future, there will be more and more people you know, but no matter who says anything to you, I hope you can believe that I will never do anything to hurt you or take advantage of you, never." ”

Wen Tiantian felt that what he said was inexplicable, and faintly felt in his heart that it seemed to be related to the Dongsheng Kingdom informant who would be dealt with at the plum banquet tomorrow.

"Why are you saying this all of a sudden? I know what you're looking for is not Dongxian, not me, but so what? No matter what you have in mind, all I know is that you are my future husband, and that's enough! ”

The little girl laughed heartlessly, and Qiu Yan also breathed a sigh of relief.

"You just believe me?" He asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Of course, who told you to marry me!"

Fang Qiuyan secretly sighed that this girl's mind was still too simple, fortunately it was him who ran into her, otherwise she would definitely be deceived by bad men when she left the house.

"You, you really don't make me feel at ease."

Wen Tian smiled sweetly, "As long as you don't change your heart, I will always believe in you!" ”

The two of them were talking crookedly together, Fang Qiuyan didn't have the heart to look at the folds, and when he saw that it was getting late, he ordered his subordinates to move the folds back to the study, and then deal with them after eating.

Compared with the love of the young couple in Fangfu, Shi Tianming, who was "ordered" to stay at home to recuperate, was already restless.

"Is there a reply from Dongsheng?"

"Lord Qiyu, not yet." The man in black stood down and said respectfully.

"How so? I sent them twelve letters in a row to inform them that the situation was urgent, why didn't they get any news back? He was puzzled, obviously during the period after Fang Qiuyan returned to the city, he had been in contact with Dongsheng Guo and sent out a steady stream of domestic information, but later when he found out that Fang Qiuyan was sending someone to check on him, he asked Dongshengjia to send someone to protect him, and there was no movement over there.

"My lord, there is one more thing. Dongsheng's killer stronghold hiding in the capital was taken away by a group of unknown masters the day before yesterday, and the letter sent was not answered, could it have something to do with them? ”

"Impossible." Shi Tianming affirmed, "Those people acted privately to assassinate Fang Qiuyan and caused disaster, what do we have to do? I went to great lengths to keep them in the city in batches, and found a safe place for them to hide, only to act impulsively and ruin my own deployment. If I had been informed in advance, it wouldn't have ended like this. ”

The man in black was silent, Shi Tianming's words were not unreasonable. If Dongshengguo's killers want to assassinate Fang Qiuyan in the capital, the difficulty is tantamount to ascending to the sky, and if they retreat to assassinate Wen Tiantian, they can disturb Fang Qiuyan's mind, so that when he is in a hurry, most of the guards will be transferred to protect his family, and the power around him will be weakened. In this way, their chances of success in the assassination are a little higher.

"My lord, what are we going to do next?"

The irascible Shi Tianming took a deep breath to calm himself down, and after thinking carefully, he found that they seemed to have reached a stalemate at this time. Tomorrow is the plum feast, and if you continue to act, you may be caught by Fang Qiuyan with more tricks, and if you don't do anything, it is equivalent to sitting still.

"No waiting."

"Since Dongsheng didn't reply to the letter, it means that they plan to stand by and watch, and we can only rely on ourselves next." Shi Tianming sat on the chair and said calmly, "The plan of action for tomorrow's banquet remains the same, those are all people in the rivers and lakes who take money to do things, and no matter whether they succeed or not, they will not leave evidence pointing to us." In the hours before the banquet began, you went and led all the hands to destroy all the traces of our dealings with Dongsheng, and it must not fall into Fang Qiuyan's hands. ”
