To be fair, Chen Xizhi is not a stupid woman, on the contrary, she can be said to be extremely smart.

Pei Yue seemed to be taking advantage in front of her, but in fact it was because he had the entire Liang Dynasty behind him. Without the support of Gu Liang and the backing of the court, it was basically impossible for him to gain an advantage in front of Chen Xizhi. Even so, Chen Xizhi also gave him

He caused a lot of trouble, at least in the battle at Qishan, he almost had his head chopped off.

But it was precisely this cleverness that delayed her.

There has never been a figure like Wu Zetian in this world, and Chen Xizhi firmly believes that women are no worse than men. In addition, she has the legacy left by Chen Qingchen, and she views issues from a very high position, so she always wants to start from

Solve problems by looking at the big picture.

Pei Yue said softly: "Revenge is a very simple matter. It only takes five steps for a man to be angry and his blood is splashed. But you insist on complicating a simple matter and affecting too many unrelated people. How can you succeed?"

Woolen cloth?"

At this point, he also lost interest, shook his head and said: "Actually, we didn't have to reach this point between you and me."

His words naturally had nothing to do with the relationship between men and women, and Chen Xizhi would not misunderstand them superficially, and she could vaguely hear some strange and profound meanings.

But now she had lost interest in asking more questions. After seeing the increasingly determined look on Pei Yue's face, she turned around and sat on the steps again, put her right hand on the wound on her lower abdomen, and said calmly: "Ye

Seven, let’s do it.”

Back in the Hengduan Mountains, she had been planning for ten years. Even though she was expelled by her master and parted ways with Ye Qi, the desire for revenge in her heart never dimmed, but became even stronger. Later, when she was forced to flee to Lingzhou, she also

Instead of being depressed and pessimistic, he took advantage of the Xiwu people's desire to recapture Hucheng and tore out a piece of their own sky here.

But now, she clearly felt tired.

Ye Qi raised his gun and took three steps forward, but then stopped and looked up slightly at the plaque of the City God's Temple.

Chen Xizhi didn't look at her and said indifferently: "You don't want to play a show of sisterly love at this time, do you? Ye Qi, don't let me look down on you, and don't let me have any whims. If you don't kill me tonight, then I will definitely

I will try my best to kill you, and this is the end of it——"

Before she finished speaking, there was a sudden loud sound behind her.

A figure jumped down from the wall of the City God's Temple and stood resolutely in front of her, holding a three-foot sword straight at Ye Qi.

Neither Chen Xizhi nor Ye Qi nor Pei Yue expected that the person appearing here at this moment would be her.

Chen Xizhi only glanced at the person's back and knew her identity. At this moment, she had mixed feelings in her heart. Even though she had been trained to have a heart as hard as stone, she could not stop the sadness and pain intertwined in her chest and abdomen.

The man didn't look back. His usually soft eyes were now glowing with sharp light. He gritted his teeth and said, "Girl, you go first."

Chen Xizhi sighed softly: "Aunt Leng, you never left?"

Two months ago, the only soft-hearted thing she had done in her life was to let Leng Ning leave.

Chen Xizhi has very complicated feelings about the woman who has always taken care of her. To a certain extent, she actually compensated for part of her missing motherly love. But with the appearance of peach blossoms, Leng Ning was sandwiched between her and Pei Yue.

On one side is the bloodline of the master's family that she brought up with her own hands, and on the other side is the young master who grew up relying on her biological daughter. Even if Chen Xizhi cannot empathize with her, she can roughly get a glimpse of how torment she is feeling.

That's why she made the decision to let Leng Ning leave to find Tao Hua, and even handed over the remaining informants in Kyoto to her hands.

Leng Ning's eyes were fixed on Ye Qi, and he smiled miserably: "Girl, how can I leave with peace of mind?"

"It's meaningless." Chen Xizhi said slowly, his expression becoming very lonely: "There is already a feud between me and Pei Yue. This is not a hatred that can be resolved by three drinks. I have too much of him on my hands.

The same is true for human blood. If the person with the upper hand at this moment was me, he would not be alive to see the sun today."

Leng Ning did not give up. She looked at Ye Qi, with a hint of pleading gradually revealed in her eyes: "Miss Ye, for the sake of past friendship, please give our girl a way to survive! I promise you that I will try my best to look after her in the future.

Don’t let her get involved in outside affairs anymore and live peacefully from now on, okay?”

Ye Qi's lips moved, but she didn't know how to respond.

Seeing this, Leng Ning looked at Pei Yue again and said sadly: "Mr. Pei, I believe you are a good person, and I will not interfere with Taohua's thoughts anymore. If she is willing to follow you, then let her follow you. Girl, she is really

It's pitiful, she wasn't born to be a murderer! She was only seven years old when the accident happened to the Chen family, so young

But the child had to face the tragic situation of her whole family being murdered, and had to force herself not to think about those scenes. She practiced martial arts and studied day after day just for revenge. Only I know that she had insomnia all night in those years.

I haven't had a good night's sleep. Mr. Pei, you have a lot of money, can you let my girl go?"

Pei Yue looked at the middle-aged woman's slightly trembling hand holding the sword and said calmly: "Aunt Leng, I told you in the boat on the Qishui River that I would definitely work for the farmers who died tragically in Luliu Village.

The idea of ​​seeking justice has never changed. Even if what happened in Lingzhou had not happened, I would not give up. Of course, what I can do is not to bring harm to others."

Leng Ning's expression changed, and he almost wanted to stab out the sword in his hand.

At this moment, Chen Xizhi suddenly put his hand on her wrist and said softly: "Aunt Leng, listen to me."

Leng Ning nodded quickly and said, "Girl, please tell me."

Chen Xizhi said calmly: "Take care of yourself and don't have unnecessary burdens. Every choice I make from childhood to adulthood is made by myself. No one can force me."

"girl--"

Leng Ning's eyes were horrified, but then Chen Xizhi snatched her sword away and pushed her seven or eight steps away with his left palm.

She stood on the steps, looked down at the three-foot sword in her hand, and said lightly: "Pei Yue."

Pei Yue naturally understood the intention of her actions at this moment, and said seriously: "Please tell me."

Chen Xizhi turned around and stopped Leng Ning who was about to rush over with his sharp eyes, and then said in a gentle tone: "When you rebel in the future, you must kill Liu Zheng with your own hands. It is best if you can chop one more knife for me."

Pei Yue didn't ask her why she was so sure, neither agreed nor refused, he just said: "What else?"

Chen Xizhi said: "I know you are checking my subordinates, but all the dead soldiers have been heroic, and the rest are just ordinary people who are insignificant and poor people without strength. Although Aunt Leng and Uncle Nong are against Chen

They are loyal, but not crazy like me, so you can let them live."

Valley rape

Pei Yue nodded and said, "I said, I will not harm innocent people."

Chen Xizhi looked at him steadily, his eyes complicated and unspeakable.

She took a deep breath, turned around and showed a smile to Leng Ning, who was already in tears, and said leisurely: "Auntie, you should understand my temperament. Don't say that only Ye Qi is present right now, even if Liu Zheng comes in person with the imperial army, if I

Don't want to die, nothing

People can force me. I am telling you this because I don’t want you to continue walking the path I have walked. Don’t blame Pei Yue and Ye Qi for this matter. There is no need to say more about the past. It is difficult to distinguish between me and them.

Right or wrong, after all, it's just a joke played by fate."

"Girl..." Leng Ning burst into tears.

Chen Xizhi suddenly felt dizzy. She subconsciously touched her lower abdomen, and then said to Ye Qi: "That left-handed swordsman is not a kind person. If you think about Pei Yue, find an opportunity to kill him."

Ye Qi looked at her gradually turning purple lips and said in shock: "He put poison on the sword?"

Chen Xizhi smiled indifferently and said: "What is this life-and-death struggle? Don't you know that Pei Yue's soldiers also smeared poison on their crossbow arrows? I'm just reminding you."

She shook her head and said to Pei Yue: "It would be great if I could get to know you earlier."

Pei Yue chewed on the profound meaning of this sentence and said slowly: "There are no ifs in this world."

"That's right."

Chen Xizhi nodded, then turned around and walked slowly up the steps.

"Is there anything else you want me to do?" Looking at her lonely back, Ye Qi couldn't help but ask.

Chen Xizhi paused and said with a smile: "Kill Pei Yue for me?"

She didn't hear Ye Qi's answer, which she expected, and continued: "If you can, just call me senior sister again."

After a while.

"Senior sister." Ye Qida said.

Chen Xizhi was startled for a moment, then laughed happily, and the laughter spread far in the quiet night.

At this moment, she thought of many things, including the Chen family's mansion in Kyoto, the peach tree in the courtyard, and the rice fields in the Hengduan Mountains.

The wind on the mountain top and the moon above my head.

Traveling thousands of miles without scruples, life will always be full of hatred.

Two drops of clear tears slipped from the corners of her eyes.

So bitter.

She misses her mother very much.

I miss you all the time.

She raised her hand and swung the sword, swiping it across her white throat without hesitation.

Seeing her fall to the ground, Pei Yue slowly closed his eyes.

He never felt that the things Chen Xizhi had done could be forgiven, even at this moment, but he did not feel the heartfelt joy and joy of having his revenge avenged.

Leng Ning staggered over and ran over, lying on Chen Xizhi's body and crying bitterly.

Ye Qi turned around and looked up at the bright moon in the sky.

Perhaps when she left Hengduan Mountain, she realized that such a day would come.

Right and wrong, right and wrong, justice and human heart, how can we sort out all of this?

She doesn't know.

She looked at the moon in the sky, and there seemed to be two little figures in the light white halo.

They wore the same bun and their movements were intimate.

But it slowly disappeared until it disappeared.

A warm palm held her cold hand at this moment.

Ye Qi didn't look back. Of course she knew who this was and said softly: "I want to bury her alive."
