Chapter Seventy-Four: The Abacus

Xia Yue cried for a long time, until Bai Yang's front placket was already wet, she reacted instantly, her pretty face turned red, she struggled to stand up, and sobbed softly: "You Weishenme will come back suddenly......?

"Know you're going to get married?" Bai Yang touched his nose and smiled awkwardly: "You were so emotional just now, you said it in one breath." ”

Xia Yue's cheeks were flushed, she wiped her tears, glared at Bai Yang viciously, and said, "You will rot this matter in my stomach for me, and I am not allowed to say it." ”

"Do you mean that you want to get married, or do you rub your tears and snot against me?" Bai Yang pointed to the tear stains on his chest, smiled teasingly, and then said: "Anyway, don't be sad anymore, the solutions are all thought up by people, why don't we think of a way together, maybe things will turn around?"

At this time, Xia Yue was no longer crying, but her eyes were a little red and swollen from crying. Her eyes widened, she looked at Bai Yang and said, "Do you still think that things have taken a turn for the better?" The turning point in front of me now is to go away and fly high, and if I am lucky enough to escape from the Southern Wilderness, then there will be a turning point, but if I dare to escape, the biggest possibility is that I will be caught halfway, and then tied up and given to Yuan Buyi." ”

"Although the Xia family is a merchant family, I said, don't underestimate the intelligence of the Xia family. Although the Bai family deliberately concealed your identity, and even those elders of the Xuanjian Sect did not know, they still couldn't escape the eyes of the Xia family. Xia Yue sighed, with deep helplessness in her voice: "So, when I decided to compromise, I didn't plan to resist. ”

Bai Yang was silent.

He looked at Xia Yue's face, that face with a smile all the time, I don't know when it was covered with a layer of sadness, think about it carefully, Xia Yue had occasionally shown this expression before, but he didn't care too much about it at that time.

Now that I think about it, it shouldn't be a matter of a day or two for the Xia family to arrange Xia Yue's marriage, but Xia Yue has always hidden this matter in her heart and didn't say it, probably because she didn't want the people around her to worry about her.

It's just that......

Bai Yang thought of Lin Feng's words, and there was a depression in his heart, which was difficult to express. If Xia Yue really sacrificed himself to compromise with the family in order to block the revenge of the Murong family and the Tantai family for him, then Bai Yang felt that he had absolutely no reason to sit idly by and ignore this matter.

Pursing his lips, Bai Yang thought for a while, and then said in a deep voice: "If you are determined, I can send you to escape from the Southern Wilderness." The world is so big, I don't believe that without the Southern Wilderness, there will be no other place. It's a big deal to go to the Eastern Capital Continent, and it's not impossible to live incognito. ”

When Xia Yue heard this, she froze for a long time, then stared at Bai Yang's face and laughed, "poof" and laughed: "How can you have such an idea?" After a pause, Xia Yue said softly: "Don't worry, even if they want to send me to the Yuan family, they will have to wait for another two years, and I will definitely not sit still in these two years." You're right, since I don't want to be submissive, I'm going to have to find a way to fight. ”

She raised her eyes, stared into Bai Yang's eyes, and said word by word: "I did plan to borrow the Yuan family's liliang to block the Murong family's revenge for you, but I have figured it out now, you have your own plans, and it is too wishful thinking for me to do this, and it is not good for you and me." Although even if I don't compromise this time, the family will send me to the Yuan family in two years, but now it is different, I will try to make myself stronger until I can control my own destiny. ”

"But until then, I want you to promise me that you will live. Xia Yue took out the jade pendant that represented her Xia family identity, handed it to Bai Yang's hand, and said softly: "Sooner or later, I won't just be a chess piece at the mercy of you, and so will you." ”

Bai Yang held the jade pendant that was warm in his hand, felt Xia Yue's fingertips cold and trembled, and after being silent for a long time, he nodded heavily.

Xia Yue smiled and poked Bai Yang's chest with her fingertips: "Remember this girl's emotional investment in you, and when you become a strong man in the future, you will come back to take back my freedom." ”

"This girl is sure of you, Bai Yang. ”

――――――――――――――――

Bai Yang returned to his room with a heavy heart, spread out his palms, and the jade pendant given by Xia Yue lay there quietly. He secretly said in his heart: "Xia Yue's matter, in the final analysis, I am too weak now, if I am strong enough, otherwise how can she not help but compromise with the family, and want to borrow the Liliang of the Yuan family in exchange for my peace?"

This feeling of powerlessness lingered in his heart, like a big mountain pressing Bai Yang to feel a little suffocated.

But Bai Yang is not depressed, as Xia Yue said, if you want to fight, then make yourself stronger. When his strength reached the point where he could ignore the threats of those families, all difficulties would naturally be solved.

"And I'm not another summer moon? I'm not in a much better position than she is. Bai Yang suddenly remembered the letter from the Bai family, and the corners of his mouth also showed a trace of coldness. Unlike Xia Yue, the Bai family is stingy with pouring any resources into themselves, just using the sentence 'You have to think about the family', and wants him to sacrifice himself to fight for the interests of the Bai family, this calculation is too cost-effective.

And Bai Yang thought of what was mentioned in the letter, and couldn't help but sneer in his heart, "The name Princess Ning Xi is like thunder, the youngest princess of the royal family, she is rude and willful, the royal family wants her to be a bargaining chip to tie up the Bai family, and the Bai family naturally has to pay a relative price, let me marry Ning Xi, if I am really that worthless waste wild seed, I am afraid that I will eventually be executed by the royal family for a reason, and the Bai family can also take it out without any loss." ”

The Bai family's methods are nothing more than the extremely simple white wolf with empty gloves. Using Bai Yang's identity that has always been concealed, after marrying Princess Ning Xi, they have received the help of the royal family without any loss, even if Bai Yang's identity is exposed, the Bai family is just a loss of a waste clan, it is better than letting the third generation of the best genius Bai Longxiang go to the royal family.

I am afraid that the only person who can come up with such a conspiracy is his uncle Bai Xuanjing.

Bai Yang put away the jade pendant in his hand, his eyes flickered, and he muttered, "It seems that this time, I really want to go back to meet you, uncle." ”

――――――――――――――――

Imperial capital.

The palace, which is now no longer glorious, still stands proudly in the center of the entire Southern Wilderness, and this symbol of royal dignity has now added a bit of gloom.

In the imperial study, a majestic and tall man dressed in a pitch-black mantle sat in the jade table, frowning and thinking about something. In front of the jade table, three old men in brocade clothes and no longer young were lying on the ground, only sticking their foreheads to the carpet.

The man in the big hat glanced at the three of them, and after a long time, he said, "Prince Zhennan's rebellion has nothing to do with you, so why bother acting like this." ”

The three old men didn't dare to come out, and the cold sweat almost soaked the carpet.

This man in a big robe is the new emperor of the current royal family, Ning Tianji.

Since the old emperor of the Wuzun realm disappeared, Ning Tianji took over the throne, but now the entire Southern Wilderness Sect is all around, and there are too many constraints, resulting in turmoil in the royal family, and those princes who are dissatisfied with him as the emperor have led the people to rebel and plan to set up their own doors. So much so that the former overlord of the Southern Wilderness Continent has long since died in name only, and it is no longer beautiful.

Today, a prince of Zuihou has also rebelled, and the three old men kneeling in front of the case are the three important ministers who have a close relationship with Prince Zhennan. Ning Tianji rubbed his brows, when the dynasty was strong in the past, how could he have a headache because a small prince raised troops to rebel? And the three old things in front of him made such a gesture, obviously they didn't just want to get rid of the relationship with the rebellious prince.

"The minister, the minister is guilty...... Please forgive me!" An old man raised his head and burst into tears: "Now that the dynasty is in turmoil, the king of Zhennan can't even think about it for a while, and he does that disobedient thing, and the minister, as the teacher of the king of Zhennan, should be punished!"

"The old minister also asks Bixia to give sin!"

"So is the minister!"

The three elders kowtowed repeatedly, and Ning Tianji, who was watching it, was irritated for a while, and shouted angrily: "That's enough! As an important minister of the imperial dynasty, I only know how to cry, what is it like? Get out of here!"

A terrifying aura emanated from Ning Tian's body. The books and papers on the jade case were blown all over the house, and the three old men bore the brunt of the blow, and the breath in their bodies suddenly became disordered, and their faces became extremely pale.

At this moment, they remembered that although the royal family has declined now, the emperor Bixia sitting in front of them is still the peak of the tenth stage of the Diyuan, and not everyone can bully him!

The three old men who were not in the Dingyuan Realm secretly glanced at each other, and instantly accepted their little caution, for fear that it would be counterproductive to continue to gain inches, so they left the imperial study with a crawl.

"A group of old immortal things, they only know how to rob while the fire is burning, really I don't know their dirty calculations? King Zhennan rebelled, and the eight Fang cities under his name, as well as many assets, have not yet had time to be cleared, they want to eat this piece of fat, and the appearance is too ugly. Ning Tianji's palms trembled, and his eyes were extremely gloomy.

The black-clothed Elder Xu standing beside him had a flash of murderous intent in his eyes, bowed his head respectfully, and said, "Bixia, do you want me?"

"Not necessarily. Ning Tianji waved his hand, "There is still a place to use them, these old immortals, if they dare to continue to reach out and grab indiscriminately, I will naturally wring off their dog heads!"

As he spoke, Ning Tianji exhaled a breath of turbid air and said lightly: "By the way, is the Bai family still delaying time now." ”

Hearing this, Elder Xu smiled and said, "The one-month appointment I made with that Bai Xuanjing is now less than a few days. When the time comes, we will know whether the white sun in his mouth is indeed a person. ”
