Liu Mingzhi was silent for a while thoughtfully: "Although I have vaguely guessed your choice, you, a little girl less than 20 years old, dare to face life and death so decisively.
To be honest, Brother Wei is still a little surprised.
You are right, there is no regret in the path you choose.
However, are you really not afraid of death? For Brother Wei, raising your hand and sword can easily end your good life.
But for you, it means that your best years will have to say goodbye to this world at this moment of your stubbornness."
"Of course my little sister is afraid of death. Who in the world is not afraid of death?
But if the premise of living is to sacrifice the life-long happiness of the little sister, the little sister would rather die than live.
The younger sister may not be able to choose her own life or death, but the younger sister can choose the path she wants to take.
If the only way to survive is to go back to that place and stay with that person for the rest of your life, my little sister would rather choose to sleep underground with a secret that she shouldn't know."
"The life principles your father taught you are not very good. They are too biased and too extreme."
Ren Qingrui looked at Liu Mingzhi with a stubborn look and shook her head: "This is not the life principle my father taught my little sister, this is the life principle you taught my little sister."
Liu Mingzhi frowned and stared at Ren Qingrui strangely for a while: "Me?"
"Yes, as the saying goes, those who are close to vermillion are red, and those who are close to ink are dark. After living in your house for so long, and not being able to leave the study courtyard without your permission, and being with you day and night for so long, under the influence of my ears and eyes, I will inevitably learn from you, my eldest brother.
I learned some things from my little sister that I had never been exposed to before.
Just like you, when you received the order to go to Beijing, you meditated hard all night in your study.
In the end, you still chose to go to Beijing according to the order. Even though you knew that the future was difficult and dangerous, and you might die on the way or even in the capital, you still chose to go.
My little sister learned from you. Even though I knew that going to Beijing to see my elder brother this time might lead to death, my little sister still chose to come.
Because this is our own choice.
Even if the purpose and reason of the choice are different, this is the choice our hearts let us make.
My little sister acts after asking her heart, and she will not regret it even if she dies."
"Act after asking your heart, and you will not regret it even if you die!"
Liu Mingzhi silently repeated what Ren Qingrui said in his heart, and his sharp eyes gradually calmed down. He stared at Ren Qingrui carefully for a while and let out a long sigh.
"You know what your heart wants, even if it means death, it's worth it. You are indeed too stubborn.
But my brother was so stubborn that I had nothing to say or anything to say in reply.
Did he ask you to give Brother Wei a message? Or something like that?"
"No! He sent me to the intersection of the official road, and then went back without saying a word and with a lonely figure."
Liu Mingzhi nodded with bitter eyes: "Okay, there's nothing else.
It’s getting late, you should find a place to stay at Penglai Restaurant first.”
"You...don't you plan to keep your little sister silent forever with her secret?"
"As you say, just follow your heart and act!"
"Aren't you afraid that I will leak the secret?"
Liu Mingzhi tightened his cloak, lay down on the recliner, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
"A person who is not even afraid of death, my brother is willing to believe that this person's heart will not expose the secret.
Go, it’s getting late, and it’s time for me to close the stall later.”
Ren Qingrui stood up silently, put the bamboo hat back on, lifted the bag and smiled at Liu Mingzhi and nodded.
"Da Guoguo, my little sister is going to find the guest room to rest first."
"What's so funny? Your life is still at stake. You may not be your own one day.
You can still laugh in such a situation, you have such a big heart.
Go ahead, if you don't have enough money, just tell the shopkeeper Xue of the restaurant and just say that you are my brother's old friend."
"Yes, the money that person gave me didn't cost much because I lived in your house. I still have tens of thousands of money in money and a lot of gold and silver jewelry."
"Haha... I don't even understand the principle of keeping one's wealth secret. It's a miracle that you made it to the capital alive."
"The younger sister only told the truth to the elder brother. I'm not a fool. How could I tell others? The elder brother and the younger sister went to the restaurant to find a place to stay first."
"Um!"
Ren Qingrui's footsteps gradually disappeared at the gate of Penglai Restaurant mixed with the footsteps of passers-by.
Liu Mingzhi, who was dozing, gently rocked the recliner and slowly opened his eyes. He took out the broken silver that Ren Qingrui had just given and pinched it between his two fingers. He quietly looked at the warm but not strong sunset on the horizon and reflected the rays of light.
of silver.
He whispered softly with calm eyes and deep thoughts.
"Kill you, I am worried that a spy who has disappeared from the world will suddenly appear and jump over the wall to take bloody revenge on me.
I'm not afraid, but I can't confine all my family members!
If anything goes wrong, I will regret it for the rest of my life.
If I don't kill you, it will not only be a waste of manpower and material resources, but the disappearing spy may also be lurking in the dark, waiting for opportunities to move.
After my death, there will definitely be a bloody storm.
Li Ye, Li Ye, you really put my uncle in a difficult situation!
By the way, this kid Li Tao has been in charge of the Palace of Ten Kings for so long, yet there is not even the slightest movement from Spy Shadow's people.
The two secret agents have been secretly investigating for so long, but they haven't found any clues. Where have you been hiding?
Could it be that he was really determined to stay away from disputes and went to some remote mountain forest to live in seclusion, unwilling to get involved in government affairs anymore?
But your behavior of disappearing out of thin air really makes it difficult for me to sleep peacefully!
The Li clan also puts me in a dilemma. If we don't eradicate the root cause, it will always be a hidden danger.
If you kill someone painfully, what if your children will imitate you in the future... Sigh...
I have a headache! I have a headache!”
The sharp-edged piece of silver a moment ago turned into a round silver bead under the force of Liu Mingzhi's fingertips.
'It's true that that person is Ren Qingrui, but it's not me! You know this, because your kindness forced two unrelated people together. Liu Mingzhi, don't you think your kindness is too cruel?'
"That person is Ren Qingrui, it's true, but it's not me."
"Your Majesty, although it is true that Your Majesty has had sexual intercourse with the Queen, it is said that it was not frequent, and it is impossible to be so excessive."
"Uncle, the demon queen has poisoned my body, which makes the child miserable!"
"The fragrance of orchids in the empty valley seems to have been smelled somewhere."
"Brother, what are you doing? Xuan'er is no longer a little girl."
"The Ai family went to pay homage to the late emperor, but accidentally discovered that the body of the Demon Queen was missing from the mausoleum."
The two people, and the bright red gauze sand on the two pairs of lotus-rooted arms flashed in my mind one by one.
Have sex! Guard the palace sand.
Who is the other Ren Qingrui?
Is it Xuan'er? But the gonggong sand on Xuan'er's arm is real, and she can't hide this from her own eyes.
If it's Xuan'er, what's the explanation for Shougong Sha?
The chastity kerchief worn by the emperor and the empress during their bridal night had to be personally inspected by the Queen Mother Chen Jie.
Moreover, there were maids and eunuchs waiting outside the palace. If it was a fake wedding, how could it be hidden from the eyes of these people?
If it wasn't Xuan'er, how could we explain the smell of orchids?
How to explain the disappearance of Ren Qingrui’s body lying in the mausoleum?
So many coincidences, but also so many unreasonable ones.
Putting away the silver beads, Liu Mingzhi looked in the direction of Liu Mansion with complex eyes for a while.
Old man, is this your fault? Does it have anything to do with you?
How many things have you not confessed to me?
Who arranged the Queen's Ren Qingrui? Could it be a drama directed and performed by Li Ye?
Chastity handkerchief?
“Hiss—it looks like I have to go to Chen Jie’s place!”
"Husband, are there no guests at the moment? Why are you so dazed?"
"Ah? Bizhu, when did you come here?"
"I brought you some nuts to pass the time. When I arrived, I saw you mumbling absentmindedly and not knowing what you were talking about.
Did you encounter any trouble?"
"No, who can cause trouble for my husband? By the way, my husband has something to tell you. You can do it when you are not busy!"
"Okay, husband, tell me!"
Liu Mingzhi's face suddenly became embarrassed. He scratched his brow and hesitated for a moment to peek at his surroundings.
