Nangong Xue said: "Yes, he is also one of the participants, how can it be so easy to ask the emperor to put up with him quietly? Now he is just expelled from the palace, which shows that the emperor still thinks a little bit of father-son affection for his son." If you are a bystander, even if you can't connect the nine clans, you will definitely not be able to escape death. Li Yijie muttered to himself: "No wonder you suddenly proposed to join the Martial Arts League...... No wonder he said that he would never have to go back to the palace...... No wonder it is impossible for the emperor to forgive him again...... It turns out that this is the truth...... I see......"

Nangong Xue said: "His mother is like this, since she was a child, she has been exposed to it, no wonder he has the heart to usurp power and seize the throne, and this is also to blame him." I look at him...... Blame the poor too. Alone and outcast, with nowhere to go, it's rare that he has the intention to repent, so let's take him in, what do you say?"

raised his hand to touch Xuanshuang's head, but he waved it away. Then he jumped to the side and shouted, "I don't need your sympathy! Hmph, who wants you to be pitiful? What do you want to take in...... Do you think I'm a stray cat or dog picked up on the side of the road? I offered to join the Martial Arts League, so ...... That's to look up to you. Even if you refuse, I, a deposed elder brother, will not be able to support myself if I mess around on the rivers and lakes by myself! Sister Nangong, you don't have to be pretended, aren't you just afraid that I will go down the evil road again? You tell me that there is no benefit in following the right path? It is always the good man who suffers! He is Shangguan Yaohua...... It's all a traitor to seek glory, and he really earns it for him! What about me......? No, Your Majesty, what did he do to me?"

Li Yijie said angrily: "Enough, shut up! You think you have a good reason to be able to make heaven and earth, let everyone sympathize with you, pity you, and accompany you to condemn the emperor, don't you? He is not only your father, but also an emperor, how can you do this...... Have you thought about how much your behavior will hurt his heart this time?"

Xuan Shuang shouted: "But what? From ancient times to the present, are there still few princes who forced my father to abdicate? Is I the only one who is not a worthy descendant? Okay, I deserve a thousand cuts, why haven't I seen a thunder from the sky to kill me? Is God blind? In any case, what should belong to me, I must take it back! I am not greedy! As long as I deserve my share." It's not just the crown prince...... I'm going to make a decision on that dragon chair! One day, I'll get my hands on it! If the emperor dares to appoint another crown prince, he will build a tomb for his son! Don't blame me for not making it clear beforehand!"

Li Yijie said: "Such an extreme personality, coupled with this style of action...... It's simply a copy of the Seven Demon Heads! Sure enough, what kind of master there is, what kind of apprentice there is!"

Xuan Shuang sneered: "Oh, don't forget that before I was six years old, you were all teaching me to practice, why didn't you teach me to be a sanctimonious hypocrite like you......? To her...... Do you dare to scold her by name? Scold her for betraying her husband, fornicating with foreign enemies, plotting against the wrong people, and being intolerable? Just because you love her, in your eyes, all her despicability and shamelessness have become noble virtues, don't you? Do you really make me wonder, how did your eyes come about? You couldn't stop her in the first place, and then come back afterwards, what is the use? You are even more seedless than Shangguan Yaohua, at least people betray her frankly, people are shameless with a clear conscience, and you are born to be a traitor! What about you? You didn't dare to face her, you didn't dare to face the emperor who you regarded as a brother, you didn't even dare to face reality, so you fled, you fled far away to the border pass, nominally to fight the peace of war, but it was just an excuse to escape! Pity you, a despicable and despicable wretch, who suffers from your conscience day and night, when you knew this was the case, why did you bother in the first place?"

Li Yijie's heart trembled suddenly, and strong guilt and self-blame poured up, almost drowning him on the spot. Xuan Shuang hugged his shoulders and sneered, glaring at him gloatingly.

Nangong Xue also felt that Xuanshuang's words were indeed excessive, but they were impeccable, leaving her speechless. The only thing worth mentioning is that he should not be too disrespectful to the older generation as a junior. But because of his young age, he couldn't even tell the truth? He had to change the subject and say, "Senior brother, if you want, go ahead." ”

Or he felt that he was vague, his face was slightly red, and he said: "The emperor said that Shen Shiyun is a guilty body and is not allowed to move into the ancestral tomb." Therefore, in the wilderness, she found a secluded place to bury her, and even the inscription on the tombstone was not allowed to be written, and it was still blank! However, Young Master Tang often went to the grave for her, and it was very clean. If you also want to go to see her and worship her, then you can go and I will not blame you...... Won't be sad. ”

Li Yijie was silent, obviously moved by this proposal, or she planned to do it secretly, but she didn't expect her to take the initiative. But in front of her, it was always inappropriate to go out to worship her old love.

Nangong Xue saw the contradiction in his heart, and said with a wry smile: "Senior brother, the only shortcoming of you is that you have a good conscience, and you always want to take care of everything, but you don't know it...... Excessive demands on perfection can only leave flaws on every side. If you want to go, go ahead and don't worry about my feelings. As a friend, to visit her after her death, that, as it should be, I really don't mind. ”

These few words finally made Li Yijie's turbulent mind firm, and he resolutely said: "No, I'm not going! The war is coming, and I can't be distracted by these senseless things." If I defeat the Seven Demon Heads, I can still have my life, and at that time, I will go and report the good news to Yun'er. Nangong Xue was silent, turned sideways, and quietly wiped away her tears.

Xuan Shuang crossed his hands and held them behind his head, one toe touched the ground, spinning back and forth, and sneered: "Yo yo, who said it in person just now, I don't mind, don't blame? I should be a saint who came out of a crack in the ground, why am I crying like a dead father and mother at this moment? If you want to be duplicitous, you don't have to show it so obviously." If people want to go, you are not happy, and if they don't go, you are still unhappy. Or do you want to pretend to be noble, but you also want to make the leader of the Li League guilty? That is called being both a ......."

Li Yijie shouted in a low voice: "At a young age, who taught you to learn such a poisonous tongue! Say a few words!" Gently hugged Nangong Xue and asked, "Xue'er, what's wrong?"

Nangong Xue lowered her eyebrows, looking pitiful, and said: "The old friend is newly mourned, and it is reasonable to go to worship, and it is understandable." If you have no worries and go immediately, then Shen Shiyun is just an ordinary friend in your eyes. But you say...... Doesn't it mean that worshipping her will distract you, and that you will never forget her?"

Xuanshuang smacked her tongue and said: "I have never seen such a stingy woman, even a dead man's vinegar has to be eaten." In that case, why don't you exchange identities with her? Let the leader of the Li League go to your grave to worship! Don't worry, she won't stop her. ”

Li Yijie saw Nangong Xue so sad, and he also felt uncomfortable in his heart, and said: "It's because I'm too half-hearted that I hurt you again and again...... I'm sorry. ”

Nangong Xue shook her head, shook her head again, and said, "No, Xuanshuang is right, it's me who is too careful." I'm really sorry for delaying for so long, my friends in the Wulin League must be in a hurry. As he spoke, he grabbed Li Yijie's arm and pulled Xuanshuang with his other hand. Unexpectedly, Xuan Shuang shook her off again, and said coldly: "I said it! It's not that I don't have legs, it's not that I can't walk, and I'm not terminally ill! I don't need you to help me!"

The three of them stepped up a stone staircase and walked towards a temple. Xuanshuang is still coming for the first time, and she feels fresh everywhere, unlike Li Yijie and the others, who have their own thoughts and are depressed. Approaching the gate of the hall, a group of disciples stepped forward and called: "Alliance leader, you are finally back, please come in!" and saluted Nangong Xue: "I have seen the alliance leader's wife." ”

These disciples didn't recognize Xuanshuang, and stared at him for a long time, and they didn't see it. Xuan Shuang's temper surged up, snorted heavily, and deliberately stomped his footsteps extremely loudly, passing over everyone and entering the hall first.

If anyone comes and sees what is going on in the temple, he will be disappointed. It's just a grand appearance, so that it won't lose its face in the martial arts, but there is no elaborate arrangement in the hall, which is also in line with Li Yijie's simple and unpretentious character. The hall is spacious, with a large chair in the center and a screen of painted peonies on each side. Under the seats, a long red carpet leads straight to the door. The four walls are empty, and none of them are framed.

At this time, the high-rollers from all over the country gathered together, and when they saw that the alliance leader finally appeared, they all crowded forward. Some asked Li Yijie where he had been in the past month, some reported to him all the changes in the capital, and some complained about how the alliance leader could leave everyone behind and leave at a critical moment.

Li Yijie listened to the noisy questions in his ear, at first he felt a slight headache about these many questions, but later, the headache intensified, from depression to real pain, and all the voices converged into a buzzing sound, even if he wanted to listen, he couldn't tell the difference.

According to the custom, when the leader of the alliance returns to the helm, he must briefly report to everyone about the experience of the past few days, and put forward the tasks and goals of the next process. But Li Yijie has been going all the way, and he feels that the headache is getting worse, and the pain is about to burst, at this time, he just wants to fall asleep immediately, unconscious, just the greetings in front of him have made it difficult for him to deal with, and he can no longer bear the various concerns, doubts, or disdainful glances he faces when gathering people to talk.

The moment he walked to the chair, he did something that surprised everyone: instead of turning around and sitting down, he bypassed the side and turned straight into the bedroom behind the screen. Leaving everyone in the room looking at each other, no one knew what the alliance leader was thinking.

Xuan Shuang hugged his shoulders and sneered, and suddenly raised his voice and said: "What a shrunken turtle, he hid in the room and thought about it behind closed doors, hoping to be worthy of his fragile and pitiful conscience, so he hung us here and fooled us like fools?"

He was mixed in with the crowd to speak, and everyone didn't know who it came from, but they all felt that it was very reasonable, as if they ignited the * fuse in an instant, and shouted in a big voice: "Yes! The leader of the alliance is too irresponsible! If he escapes, what will we do?" "Even if it doesn't work, we have to give an explanation! Stop in the middle of the road, what does it mean?" "Li Mengzhu, come out and give everyone an explanation! Otherwise, how can you tell everyone to trust you?"

Nangong Xue was following Li Yijie all the way, and felt that his arm trembled slightly, and wanted to persuade him not to be reluctant, but he didn't know how to show it. In the end, Li Yijie went back to the room on her own, although she was also a little caught off guard, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, everyone questioned one after another, and it intensified, and in the end, it turned from initial skepticism to screaming abuse. Finally, he couldn't listen to it anymore, walked forward quickly, walked to the chair and stood still, proud of the audience, and his courage did not lose the master's posture, and said loudly: "Master Li is not such a spineless person. He had just returned to the capital from the frontier and was too tired. When he recovers some spirits, he will naturally give everyone a satisfactory answer. I hope you will give him some time, to know that the leader of the alliance is a human being, not a god, and don't push him too hard. ”
