Nalan Zhenqi bandaged Jing Yirong's wounds before walking to Nalan Xinyu. "Why do you do this?"
"You... you are her weakness." Nalan Xinyu's heart was broken long ago. Now she only has her last breath left. "She... she will definitely come to save you. But you... you shouldn't save her. That knife just now Plus Yu Yingxuan's palm. At least. At least she can't hurt us easily again. Zhenqi. You. You still helped her."
Nalan Zhenqi lowered his head. Even Nalan Xinyu could see that he was her weakness. How could he not see it? It was the feeling that he wanted to give up but could not give up that made him feel so painful. Master, he has been in this life for a long time. I only have one. I only want one. So I don’t want her to become my enemy. But what should I do in the current situation?
"Zhenqi." Nalan Xinyu called softly. "You. Do you want to know why she wanted to kill me? Do you know who the person who saved you was?"
Nalan Zhenqi frowned. "What do you mean by the emperor's words?"
"I tell you, actually... actually... ah." Before Nalan Xinyu could finish her words, she was killed by a flying knife. She died immediately. Nalan Zhenqi turned to look at Jing Yi in disbelief. Rong. Jing Yirong looked at Nalan with disgust and said to her heart, "If you dare to stab me with hatred, I will also let you taste the feeling of being stabbed by a knife."
Jing Yirong turned to Yu Yingxuan again. "Do you have anything else to say?"
"Is it worth it?" Yu Yingxuan asked suddenly. "Is it worth doing all this and not getting any gratitude except hating you?"
"You don't need to worry about my affairs." Jing Yirong said, "You know you deserve to die when you plan to touch him."
Yu Yingxuan suddenly raised his head and laughed. "Haha. Jing Yirong, you think you are protecting everyone, but you don't know that you are being fooled by others. One day you will understand every wound on your body. What's in your heart Every stab in your life was inserted by the person you care about most. One day you will know that you are truly ridiculous. It is so ridiculous that it makes people feel pitiful."
Jing Yirong frowned. "What do you mean?"
Yu Yingxuan did not answer any more. He bit off his tongue and died. But there was a smile of unknown meaning in the corner of his mouth. He was laughing at himself. He believed in the words of the person behind the scenes and thought that he could really get the country that once belonged to their family. .In fact, he is just a pawn used by the people behind the scenes to deal with Jing Yirong; he is also laughing at Jing Yirong. He is laughing at her for being busy for so long, but she is just busy for others. She is not being toyed with by the person he loves most. In the palm of your hand. When one day she knows the truth of the matter, she will know how cute she is.
Jing Yirong stroked the wound on his arm and looked at Nalan Zhenhai who was surrounded by guards. "Why do you still want to kill me now?"
"Step back." Nalan Zhenhai said to the guard. Nalan Zhenqi couldn't help being surprised.
Nalan Zhenhai walked up to Nalan Zhenqi. "How is your injury?"
"I'm fine." Although Nalan Zhenqi was injured, this injury was not enough to make him feel unbearable. What's more, since he detoxified, his body seems to be stronger than before. There is a vague feeling. Some kind of air current was moving in his body.
Nalan Zhenhai was relieved. He turned to Jing Yirong again. "You go."
"I have something to tell you." Jing Yirong didn't take Nalan Zhenhai's identity seriously at all. She knew what Nalan Zhenhai was thinking too well. Now he was facing Nalan Xinyu and Yu Yingxuan This attitude towards his death made her understand even more that Nalan Zhenhai might have understood everything a long time ago.
Nalan Zhenhai looked at Jing Yirong for a few seconds before agreeing. "Okay."
Nalan Zhenhai and Jing Yirong arrived at the imperial study. All the guards were withdrawn. Only two people were left in the spacious study.
Jing Yirong raised his eyebrows and looked at Nalan Zhenhai. "If you evacuate everyone, you won't be afraid that I will kill you."
"With your current martial arts skills, entering the palace is like entering an uninhabited land. If you really want to kill me, I will have nothing to hide from."
"Nalan Zhenhai, you are not only an old fox but also smart enough. Your favorite candidate for the crown prince is Zhenqi."
"I know you are smart, but I didn't expect you to be able to guess this." Nalan Zhenhai did not hide it.
Jing Yirong sneered. "No wonder you agreed to let Zhenqi follow me. You had already expected that one day I would regain the crown prince position for Qingyi. You also knew that there were too many traps in the palace. You simply asked Zhenqi to follow me. Leaving the palace. Firstly, to hide from those who want to harm him. Secondly, when I know that Zhenqi is the prince of your choice, I will take care of Zhenqi and not take the throne."
"Jing Yirong, your only fault is that you are a girl. If you were a boy, just because of your courage and intelligence, I am afraid that the world will be yours sooner or later." Nalan Zhenhai said calmly.
Jing Yirong was disdainful. "Even if I am a girl, as long as I have my heart, this world can still be mine. Nalan Zhenhai, your move is indeed cruel. I will definitely take care of Zhenqi and not take action. Originally, I was still hesitant. .But Qingyi has no ambition to become the King of Hades, so I won’t take action."
"It seems that this king made the right move."
"That's right." Jing Yirong smiled again. "I can tell without guessing that you know about Nalan Xinyu and Yu Yingxuan's conspiracy. It's just that now that I've solved it for you, it saves you the trouble of thinking about a solution. Do you care? I don’t care about a few more charges if I am charged with murdering a woman and her son.”
"You really have nothing to say to Zhenqi. Even what I have done may not be worth it to you."
"Of course you can't compare to me. You are so kind to Zhenqi because of a dead woman. Everything I did for him is just because he is him. He is Nalan Zhenqi." Jing Yikong's eyes were firm. " All I do is hope that Zhenqi will be safe. I have already eliminated all the people who should be eliminated for him. What you do next, Nalan Zhenhai, is your own business. But I warn you not to get in my way. On my head. If I remember correctly, you sent a killer to kill me during the time when I lost my memory."
Nalan Zhenhai suddenly raised his head and did not expect that she would even know about this matter.
Jing Yirong stepped forward and walked a few steps in front of Nalan Zhenhai. "Don't mess with me, because you can't afford to mess with me. I let you go this time for the sake of Qingyi and Zhenqi." No one can save your life next time."
It was the first time that Nalan Zhenhai was given such a straightforward warning. He only felt angry. "Jing Yirong, don't be too arrogant. Don't think that because you are good at martial arts, you can really act recklessly in this king's palace. No matter how powerful your martial arts are, Is it worthy of my king’s thousands of troops?”
Jing Yirong grabbed the only sword hanging on the wall of the imperial study room. He pulled out the sword and stabbed Nalan Zhenhai in the shoulder.
"Ah." Nalan Zhenhai muttered and looked at Jing Yirong in disbelief. "You..."
"This sword tells you that I can take your life at any time. Stop putting on your royal airs in front of me. It will only make me feel sick." Jing Yirong threw away the sword in his hand. "Your blood is so bloody. Dirty this sword. The last words. If Zhenqi is injured in the slightest, I will destroy your underworld."
Jing Yirong walked out of the imperial study without looking back. After walking all the way, he met Nalan Zhenqi on the way out of the palace. He stood against the wind and seemed to have been waiting for Jing Yirong to appear.
Jing Yirong stared at Nalan Zhenqi without saying anything. Silence spread in the air. She seemed not to know how to speak.
Only when she met Nalan Zhenqi did she realize how much she missed him. He was 15 years old. He had gone through too many things and his childishness had disappeared little by little. He had also grown taller. He seemed to be taller than He was still half a head taller. Now he had to raise his head when standing in front of him.
Nalan Zhenqi took a step forward, seemingly with some mockery. "Your martial arts are too high. I'm afraid I won't be able to kill you in this life."
"Just find a few more masters." Jing Yirong's tone was a little cold.
Nalan Zhenqi was stunned. He only had one master in his life, but he didn't mean what he said. "Yes. Just a few more masters will do."
Jing Yirong felt depressed. "You are not qualified to avenge Yue Ya now. So don't waste my time."
"How did sister Xiao Yan die?" Nalan Zhenqi suddenly asked.
Jing Yirong stared at Nalan Zhenqi for a long time. "You already have a guess in your mind, don't you? Say it."
"I won't. It won't be what I thought." Nalan Zhenqi had a little tear in his eyes.
Jing Yirong sneered. "It's what you think. But this time it's different. I didn't kill her with one knife. I just didn't save her. I just watched her fall into the sea with my own eyes."
Nalan Zhenqi's body froze for a moment. His face turned pale. Unable to accept it, his body took a few steps back. "Why. Why do you push the people around you away one by one."
"No reason."
"Even if it's a lie, why don't you make up one?" Nalan Zhenqi could no longer restrain the tears in his eyes. "As long as you make up a lie, I am willing to believe you. I would rather you lie to me than use this attitude of not caring about me." Push me away. Do you know that you pushed me away with your own hands?"
Jing Yirong clenched her hands tightly. The wound on her forearm was healed again. The pain of tearing flesh drowned out the sound of her heart pounding. She also restrained the tears she wanted to shed and pulled Nalan Zhenqi to her side. impulse.
People around her left one by one. She wanted Nalan Zhenqi to come back to her so much. But how could she let Nalan Zhenqi know that Yue Ya died for him in order to win the life and death talisman. How could she tell him? .His father used his love for him to kill his brother and his sister.
"The fact is that you have already left. You should know that once you leave, you can't look back."
"I never thought about looking back." Nalan Zhenqi said against his will. God knew how painful he was. "I have not forgotten the sword you pierced into Yue Ya's body. Now it seems that there is another sister Xiao Yan. You Push. Push everyone around you away. Then you can become your old self."
Jing Yirong's forced smile seemed a bit pitiful. "It is true that I will become the same person as before. The facts prove that without you, without Xiao Yan, without Zhi Jin, I can still live. And live well."
"That's good. That's good." Tears have fallen on the cheeks. Compared with the pain when Yue Ya died, now it seems that my heart has died and I can't even feel the pain. "I hated you before because I cared about you. Now I don’t even hate you anymore.”
Jing Yirong turned her back to prevent Nalan Zhenqi from seeing through her far-fetchedness. She didn't want to force herself to show any smile that was uglier than crying.
Nalan Zhenqi faced Jing Yirong's back and continued: "I used to say that hating someone is usually because that person doesn't give you enough love. So you slowly started to hate her. I think I understand now. I also understand this sentence. In a year, I no longer expected your care. I no longer expected your love. So gradually I stopped hating you. Until today I saw you and listened to Xiao Yan Regarding the situation between my sister and Zhijin, I hate you again. But now there is no trace of unwillingness in my hatred. At this moment, even my hatred has slipped. I will no longer be childish and say that I will kill you to avenge Yue Ya. Just because of me I know myself too well. The reason why I can't take revenge is not because my martial arts skills are inferior to yours. It's because I can't kill you at all. If I don't take revenge, I have nothing to do with you anymore. All my feelings have been used up."
