Between people, not as long as they are sincere, they will become friends or even confidants, but more likely to smell like, each other knows what kind of person the other party is, or knows what kind of road the other party is taking, this road may be what they are walking, or maybe they want to go but can't go. Two people who are familiar with each other and strangers may not be able to become friends.

The emperor looked at Wuxin, who shook his head with a wry smile, and chose to be silent, staring directly at Wuxin's eyes, he was waiting, waiting for Wuxin's answer, and he was also waiting for his own decision.

After a long time, Wuxin finally spoke, only to see him say slowly: "The reason why the rebels can be destroyed is because the emperor governs the country in a good way, giving birth to many people who are worthy of cherishing each other, and many people are willing to fight for the emperor's country, if it weren't for them, even if it is a Daluo immortal, it is difficult to resist the enemy's large-scale rebellion, so this credit should be the emperor's, it belongs to all the people in the world, I am just a part of it, that's all." ”

Although it sounds like it is completely touting and shirking, but there is no reason to refute it, which is unintentional and subtle, but it is indeed the truth.

The emperor quietly looked at Wuxin, who was sincere, still silent, he didn't expect Wuxin to answer like this, the answer was so direct but not leaky, but it was obvious that this was not the answer he wanted.

After a long time, the silent two finally broke the silence, only to see the emperor say meaningfully: "I think that Shaoxia is a pillar of talent, it is a pity to lose, I hope you can be like your father, stay in the court, and contribute to the court." These words sound more like a warm and difficult retention, but it is not a high-ranking order, not everyone can be worthy of the emperor's attention.

"It's not a secret, I am a Jianghu person, a person who is used to freedom, I don't like so many rules and regulations, so I am not suitable to be an official, and I have never thought about being an official, the Jianghu is where I should stay, not here, the emperor's intentions have been understood, and I am more grateful, but I also ask the emperor to understand and hope that the emperor will be perfect. Unintentionally looked at the emperor bluntly and said, his attitude was extremely serious.

The emperor sighed, shook his head helplessly, hesitated for a while, and said slowly: "Since Shaoxia insists on leaving, it is inconvenient for me to stay, but I hope that Shaoxia will not forget what he said today, let alone that he is loyal and good." As he spoke, he turned around, no longer looking at Wuxin, as if he had given an eviction order, obviously disappointed by Wuxin's choice.

After listening to the emperor's last words, he was stunned for a moment, and suddenly his heart tightened. It was only now that he finally understood why the emperor was so insistent on keeping himself in the court, because he was afraid of his prestige in the rivers and lakes.

After this turmoil, many people have seen Wuxin's status in the rivers and lakes, and it is definitely a response, not to mention that the current leader of the martial arts alliance is personally recommended by him, and there are forces like Wudang Shaolin that have been based on the rivers and lakes for thousands of years, even if the emperor is a person who does not listen to things outside the window, he should be able to know Wuxin's influence in the rivers and lakes.

To put it bluntly, the emperor is jealous of the unintentional, and the fear of the unintentional will one day have two hearts, and a person who has personally quelled the rebellion chooses to rebel, and the consequences are conceivable, so the emperor will be jealous, and will be so eager to leave the unintentional in the court and stay within the scope of his control. This kind of thought can't help but send chills down people's spine, maybe this is the sadness of accompanying the king like a tiger.

The corners of Wuxin's mouth once again showed a wry smile, he seemed to understand a little why so many people have chosen to rebel for a world that can be seen and touched, and there may really be many people who have been forced into a desperate situation, doubt and vigilance, maybe it can really make a person have two hearts.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, I know what I should do, even if I don't do well, I won't betray what my father swore to be loyal to during his lifetime. Wuxin said seriously, to put it bluntly.

The emperor didn't speak again, with his back to Wuxin, his hands behind his back, as if he didn't intend to dwell too much on this issue.

Wuxin shook his head, saluted respectfully, turned around and walked out, just walked a few steps, but couldn't help but stop, didn't look back, just said as if nothing: "In fact, the so-called peace in the world is completely decided by the emperor, it is useless for others to do anything, as long as the emperor hopes that the world is peaceful, then the world will naturally be peaceful." ”

After Wuxin finished speaking, he slowly exited the room without stopping and gently closed the door. At the moment when he closed the door, he took a long breath, and suddenly felt extremely relaxed, and the short time of incense just now was harder than his life and death battle.

So that's why he didn't want to choose to stay. Although there is no sword and sword shadow here, there is no flesh and blood flying, but there is no lack of deceit, open and secret fighting, sometimes it may be more ruthless and cold-blooded than the battle in the rivers and lakes, this is a battlefield without gunpowder.

When Zhan Ying and Tie Xiong, who were waiting outside the palace, saw Wuxin coming out of it safely, they were obviously relieved, it seemed that the two of them were also worried about what would happen to Wuxin, maybe they had already guessed that there would be such a conversation between the emperor and Wuxin, but they hadn't had time to remind them yet.

The two of them were waiting outside the palace with Zhan Ying, of course, there were Ruyi, Nangong Chu and Long Xinyue. The three of them also showed a knowing smile on their faces when they saw Wuxin come out, although they didn't know as much as Zhan Ying and Tie Xiong, but they knew the old saying that since ancient times, being in this palace compound would never make people feel at ease.

"What did the emperor tell you?Why did you go for so long?" Tie Xiong looked at Wuxin who came closer, and asked slowly, he should be more worried about Wuxin's safety than Zhan Ying.

Wuxin pretended to smile lightly and said slowly, "It's okay." ”

Although the words were brief, the slight shaking of the head between the words was understood by Zhan Ying and Tie Xiong, and the two glanced at each other, and took the lead in leading the way in front of them, heading towards the six doors. After saying hello to Wuxin and Ruyi, they didn't stay long, and quickly left behind Zhan Ying and Tie Xiong.

That night, the four of them quietly left the capital after having dinner at the headquarters of the six gates, because no one knew whether the emperor really wanted to let Wuxin leave the capital and leave his control, and not everyone could let the tiger return to the mountain without changing his face, although this tiger may not eat people.

So, Wuxin hurriedly said goodbye to Zhan Ying and Tie Xiong, and left the capital, leaving the capital in a hurry, not that he was afraid of anything, but he didn't want to attract too much attention, let alone affect others, when a person began to doubt you, he would doubt everything around you.

The few people who left the capital couldn't find a place to go for a while, and as soon as the red feather was destroyed, everyone didn't seem to know what to do for a while. So after discussion, it was decided to go to Crescent Town, not far from the capital, and go to the Crescent Inn of Long Crescent to stay for a while, but this time there was already one more person around the four of them, a person who was the same as Wuxin, who was also dressed in black and said little.

This person is none other than Captain Shadow, Cold. I had no intention of mentioning it to Murong Jue before, he had secretly sent his henchmen to protect the emperor, and this henchman was worthy of coldness. After Leng burned down the Yanmen Palace, he quickly led the shadow to rush back, and then was sent unintentionally to secretly protect the emperor until they met in the capital.

That night, everyone drank wine in the Crescent Moon Inn, which was regarded as a celebration of the merit and the safe return of everyone, and even the injured Wuxin drank it, but Ruyi was present and did not drink too much. Nangong Chu and Long Xinyue kept drinking until dawn, until they all drank under the table.

This is a rare and comfortable time, there is no war, no hatred, only friends and wine, such days are not every day, such friends are also hard-won. Living well for the living is perhaps the greatest consolation for the dead. To all those friends who have fought side by side and are now separated by yin and yang, and to those friends who have not retreated for no reason when disaster comes. Life can get a confidant, this life is enough.

No matter what happened yesterday, no matter how many people were so busy that they couldn't sleep at night, the sun always seemed to rise at that fixed time, and it seemed that it never seemed to be tired.

When the first rays of sunlight appear on the horizon, the darkness of the night disappears, the earth regains its dawn, and everything recovers, with hope, with determination, everywhere.

On the railing post on the second floor of the Crescent Inn, there was a person standing, a person with a tired face and a teacup in his hand, standing there quietly, looking at the empty hall on the first floor, and also looking at the people who had begun to move around frequently outside the door, as if they were thinking about something, and their brows were slightly furrowed.

At this moment, another person walked out of the room not far away, saw the figure standing by the stairs, hesitated for a moment, and slowly walked over. It was the owner of this inn, Long Xinyue, who had actually just fallen asleep.

"Haven't slept all night?" Long Xinyue looked at this slightly lonely figure and asked slowly, with a complicated expression.

"Why don't you, why don't you get up again just after falling asleep, do you think you haven't drunk enough wine?" the figure replied lightly without looking back. This lonely figure is none other than Wuxin. He had not slept all night, he had no sleep, and although he was physically tired, he could not sleep anyway, because he had too many things on his mind.

Long Xinyue shook her head and smiled, and said slowly, "I can't sleep because I suddenly thought of something, something that may be important to you. ”

Wuxin was stunned for a moment, and finally glanced back at Long Xinyue, frowned and said, "What's the matter?" He was a little curious, not knowing what Long Xinyue could say.

But Long Xinyue didn't answer directly, but was silent for a long time, then looked at Wuxin, and said slowly: "Don't you want to know who I am?"

Hearing Long Xinyue's words, he smiled unintentionally, the expression on his face softened a little, and then said lightly: "If you want to say, you will say it directly, why do I keep asking, if you don't want to say, if I ask, it will be embarrassing for you, why bother? I just need to know that you Long Xinyue is my friend, and that's enough." ”

Listening to Wuxin's words, Long Xinyue also smiled, smiling very comfortingly, maybe that's why he felt that Wuxin was a friend he could make for a lifetime, and he liked this way of getting along. Of course, he was also grateful that Wuxin had never asked him where he came from, a past he didn't want to pick up.

But now, he felt that it was time to tell Wuxin everything, if nothing else, but for the word "friend......
