Chapter Fifty-Eight: From the Heart

Xu Beiyou was silent, Xiao Zhinan's words were very true, just as the master passed on his mantle, not to let him go to chivalry and righteousness, not to let him compete with the son of the family and be jealous, not to let him fight with other monks, but to let him take over and carry the inheritance of the Sword Sect, and strive to restore the sect to Zhongxing one day.

As a princess, Xiao Zhinan has enjoyed the honor given to her by the royal family since she was born, and if the royal family needs her to marry the son of a minister and a noble minister to appease the court, then she will have no hesitation. Everyone in the world is the same, children are raised by their parents, they should honor their parents, students are taught by teachers, they should respect their teachers, and scholars and soldiers should be loyal to the king. Even the emperor is the same, sitting on a country and the world, since the son of heaven guards the country, if one day the world overthrows and the country dies, the king should also die.

Given what you get, this is both a principle and a rule.

Xiao Zhinan picked up the incense shovel on the side, scraped a few more taels of spices from the incense cake, and after a while, the aroma in the room became more intense, and said softly: "You may not believe it, since I am sensible, my wish is to be a free person, at that time, I was like many young girls in Huaichun, I hope to get out of the high wall cage, take a look at the wonderful world outside, and then find an invincible hero in the world to be a husband, thousands of rivers and mountains, let's go to see together, this is the life I want, the rise and fall of the world, the court affairs, what do I have to do with a little woman?" But when I grew up, I realized that this world has to be reasonable, but also to talk about rules, not how you want to be, even if you are the princess and emperor, so over the years, I have been working hard, trying to find loopholes in this sweeping rules, and I want to become a fish that slips through the net in luck. ”

Xu Beiyou was silent for a long time, and then nodded very seriously: "I believe it." ”

Xiao Zhinan was stunned, and said a little self-deprecatingly: "Human nature is selfish, I am also a human being, although this surname has given me a lot, and it stands to reason that I want to repay this surname as a matter of course, but I am still a little unwilling and want to fight again." ”

Xu Beiyou couldn't help but ask, "What do you really want?"

Xiao Zhinan put down the incense shovel in his hand, turned his head to look directly at Xu Beiyou again, and said softly: " I, Xiao Zhinan, am not the father and emperor who owns the world, I have no interest in thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, and I am not an ambitious scholar and scholar, I don't think about any self-cultivation and Qi family to rule the country and level the world, let alone a saint who is compassionate and compassionate, there is no realm of helping the world and saving the people of the world, I just don't want to repeat the old path of those princesses in the past dynasties, I want to go all over the world, and then find a man who is pleasing to the eye to marry, and spend this life in peace, isn't it very greedy?"

Xu Beiyou was speechless.

Xiao Zhinan continued: "The father is very different from his grandfather, many people say that his grandfather is mean and unkind, but his father is benevolent, in fact, in my opinion, my grandfather is the real benevolent person, my aunt and grandmother were married to Wanyan Beiyue by him, some people say that this is a marriage, but they don't look at it, Wanyan Beiyue is recognized as a great material, the first beautiful man in Houjian at that time, and the lord of Houjian, no matter from which point of view, it is a rare good match, which woman will refuse? My aunt married Emperor Zheng Ai, but it was also my aunt's willingness, and after Emperor Ai's death, my grandfather intended to let my aunt remarry, but my aunt was unwilling. On the contrary, it is his father, he is not like his grandfather, but more like his great-grandfather, he acts gently on the outside and fierce on the inside, and he can't tolerate the slightest disobedience from others. ”

Xu Beiyou's back was chilled when he heard this, and he couldn't say anything silent, and he didn't dare to say more.

Xiao Zhinan also knew that it was against the way of being a child to evaluate his father so behind his back, but he still couldn't help but sigh: " Go back this time, I really don't know what the future is, I won't hide some things from you, now my father and Lan Xiang have fought to a critical moment, Lan Xiang is a veteran of the two dynasties, and he is also the first auxiliary emperor, and Tianji Pavilion and Daomen are both supporting Lan Xiang, even if the father is not easy to move him, so re-enabling Han Xuan to divide and contain in the temple is one of them, let Zhang Daban come to Jiangnan to suppress the bottom of the Daomen kettle is the second, and the third is to marry me to Duanmu Yu, so that the old fox Duanmu Ruisheng, who has always been wise and wise, will completely turn against Lan Xiang. ”

Maybe it's because he sees it too thoroughly, so it's getting more and more sad, at this time, Xiao Zhinan would rather be stupid, don't know this, then there can be a while more carefree, as early as the ancient battlefield of Danxia Village, Xiao Zhinan has already kicked Duanmuyu out of the ranks of "pleasing to the eye", but the general trend is the same, but in the end she still has to fall into Duanmuyu's hands.

Although Xu Beiyou said that he could face Duanmu Yu with a normal heart, he didn't have a good impression of this person, and when he heard Xiao Zhinan's words at this time, he couldn't say that it was like eating a fly, and he also felt a little embarrassed.

This is also human nature, a woman like Xiao Zhinan, just ask how many men are not tempted, just marry someone else, but if you want to marry an opponent who wants to put yourself to death several times, it is difficult for a man to be calm.

Xu Beiyou took a deep breath, suppressed the distracting thoughts in his head, and asked instead, "Doesn't Your Highness have any means to press the bottom of the box?"

Xiao Zhinan's expression was unnatural for a moment, hesitated for a moment, and said: "If you want to say that there is a way to break the net, there must be one, but it is not to that point now, not to mention that it is my biological father, how can I ......"

Xiao Zhinan's left hand was lightly clenched into a fist, and he didn't finish his words, looked at Xu Beiyou, and laughed at himself again: "There is a saying that people in the rivers and lakes can't help themselves, but people in the temple can't help themselves." Born in the emperor's family, luck and misfortune are like people drinking water, knowing their own warmth and coldness. ”

Xu Beiyou said softly: "Back then, Zhang Jiangling described himself as 'like a fire gathering, getting a cool door', and now Her Royal Highness the princess has obtained three points of the true taste. ”

Xiao Zhinan smiled but did not speak.

This time, Xu Beiyou didn't dodge his gaze anymore, just looked at her so openly, as if he was seriously examining a peerless treasure.

In Xu Beiyou's cognition, Xiao Zhinan's image has undergone a total of three major changes, the first transformation is from a mysterious woman riding a sassy purple to a shocking fairy, the second transformation is from a fairy to a princess whose words and deeds are different from ordinary people, and the third is from a princess to a woman with bad intentions.

From then on, he began to secretly guard against Xiao Zhinan, for fear that if he was not careful, he would be swallowed by her along with the belt bones. Even when he arrived in Jiangnan, he didn't go to visit Her Royal Highness the princess as promised

However, as Xiao Zhinan saved his life, her image in Xu Beiyou's heart changed again, and now she has become a princess and noble girl with deep thoughts but involuntarily. Even after Xiao Zhinan said a lot of heartfelt words that were not spoken to outsiders, Xu Beiyou suddenly had an extremely absurd idea, if he could find such a woman to live a stable life, it would not be bad.

However, such thoughts are only fleeting, Xu Beiyou's current age is the most energetic age, far from the time when he wants to stop and enjoy himself.

Xiao Zhinan stretched out his hand and shook it in front of his eyes, and asked jokingly, "Have you seen enough?" ”

Xu Beiyou came back to his senses, but it was the ghost who shook his head frankly and said, "No." ”

Xiao Zhinan didn't expect Xu Beiyou to be so "bold and reckless" this time, he was stunned for a moment, and the stunning look of his slightly wide-open eyes made Xu Beiyou break the gong again, and there were ripples in his heart.

Xu Beiyou hurriedly retracted his gaze and lowered his eyebrows to calm his mind. If it is just beauty, Xu Beiyou can't be so out of shape, but the touch of favor and trust that Xiao Zhinan intentionally or unintentionally revealed makes Xu Beiyou, who is at a young and amorous age, inevitably want to be wrong, which is the fundamental key to making him uneasy several times.

Xiao Zhinan got up and said: "It's getting late, lonely men and widows are in the same room, it's not a structure, I should go, you have a good rest." ”

Xu Beiyou nodded, looked at Xiao Zhinan and did not speak.

Xiao Zhinan stood still after getting up, looking at him quietly as well.

The two looked at each other for a moment, Xu Beiyou was defeated, and said helplessly: "I still can't hide it from you, then I'll ask directly, when will you return to the imperial capital?"

This time, he did not address His Highness, but used a relatively equal character for you.

Xiao Zhinan said softly: "If it's fast, it's January, and if it's slow, it's March." ”
