The corners of Xie Wu's lips moved again and again. She looked at the undisguised worry in Xie Zheng's eyes. She couldn't say the word 'yes' no matter what...
As for Xie Zheng, although he was not that sensitive to the court situation, he still knew something about Xie Wu, his daughter. Looking at her expression like this, there was nothing he didn't understand at the moment.
"Ah Wu, you, did you know this early in the morning?" Xie Zheng suppressed the shock in his heart and asked again.
Xie Wu pursed her lips. She pondered for a long time, and finally nodded under Xie Zheng's gaze.
Seeing Xie Wu lowering her eyes and saying nothing, filled with guilt and unable to speak, Xie Zheng couldn't help but feel a little sour in his heart.
She has always been calm and self-possessed. Even when faced with Ari's partiality and misunderstanding, she never showed a trace of sadness or discomfort. But now, just because he asked such a question, she lowered her head as if
Children who have done something wrong are just as guilty and speechless.
"Ah Wu, I don't blame you." Xie Zheng chuckled, and he raised his hand again and gently stroked Xie Wu's head.
"Dad..." Xie Wu raised her head in disbelief.
Xie Zheng smiled lightly, raised his hand and patted Xie Wu's shoulder gently. Finally, he said in a hoarse voice, "Awu, have you forgotten? I said that, I believe you, and I believe you will do it for me."
I chose this path for the Marquis Wu’an Mansion!”
"Dad..." The tip of Xie Wu's nose suddenly became sour, and then she called out to "Dad", and a layer of mist suddenly filled her gleaming phoenix eyes.
"Silly girl, you are my biological daughter. If I don't trust you, then who can I trust?"
Xie Wu wiped the tears from her eyes, "Besides, your grandfather also asked me to listen to you!"
"Grandpa?" Xie Wu raised her eyes in surprise.
Xie Zheng smiled and nodded, "After I talked to you that day, I thought about it again and again, and finally wrote a letter to your grandfather. I told your grandfather everything that happened since I returned to the capital.
, I also informed your grandfather of my decision. Just two days before we set off to Linxi Paddock, I received a reply from your grandfather..."
"Then grandpa, grandpa, what did he say?" Xie Wu looked at Xie Zheng anxiously and asked.
"Your grandfather said that he would feel at peace with you in charge of the capital!" Xie Zheng thought of the words in his father's letter, and he couldn't help but feel honored.
Xie Wu obviously didn't expect that she would hear this answer from Xie Zheng, and she was stunned...
Regardless of whether it was in the past life or in this life, her grandfather still favored and trusted her. It was obvious that they had never met.
"So, Ah Wu, don't be afraid, and don't feel guilty. Your grandfather and I believe in you, but..." Looking at Xie Wu's flashing eyes, Xie Zheng suddenly couldn't speak anymore.
At that time, he thought Ah Wu had just chosen a boat for the Marquis Wu'an Mansion, but now...
Regicide is a serious crime after all!
If possible, he still hoped that Ah Wu would not get involved in this!
However, he just said that he should believe Ah Wu...
"Dad, don't worry, the person who wants to kill the king is not Lu Zhan." Xie Wu obviously saw Xie Zheng's hesitation and hesitation, so she spoke to him directly.
"No, isn't it A-Zhan? That's great! As long as it's not A-Zhan!" Upon hearing Xie Wu's words, Xie Zheng couldn't help but feel happy, and at the same time, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, okay, I can still get Lu Zhan as my son-in-law!
As for why Lu Zhan informed him in advance, Xie Zheng was so happy that he completely forgot about the problem.
But Xie Zheng forgot, but Xie Wu didn't forget. She looked at Xie Zheng's overjoyed look, she pursed her lips again and again, and finally asked him calmly, "Dad, can you make the paddock today better?"
Tell me everything that happened?"
Although she knew in advance that something was going to happen, she had no idea what was going on.
Therefore, she wanted to know what kind of existence Wu'an Houfu, or her father, was in Lu Zhanbu's game? A chess piece? Or...
A stepping stone to his ascension?
When she came out of Xie Zheng's tent, it was completely dark. The wind on the grassland was very strong, especially at night. It brought a biting chill to her body, but Xie Wu suddenly felt that it was nothing.
She looked up at the vast sky above her head, watching the stars twinkling above the sky, and in a daze, tears finally fell from the corners of her eyes.
"Awu."
Suddenly a familiar voice sounded in front of me.
Xie Wu looked forward and saw a figure standing not far away. The bright moonlight enveloped his body like a veil, and there was deep weariness on his face.
It's Lu Zhan.
"Ah Wu." Lu Zhan called out to Wu again.
This time, Xie Wu's eyes finally moved. She hesitated for a while, and finally walked towards Lu Zhan, "Lu Zhan, you..."
Before she finished speaking, a strong arm suddenly stretched out towards her, and then, Lu Zhan's aura swept towards her overwhelmingly...
Xie Wu frowned. She raised her hand and subconsciously wanted to push Lu Zhan away. But the next second, Lu Zhan suddenly lowered his head and buried his face in her neck, and then his low and hoarse voice was accompanied by his warm breath.
They sprayed all together on her neck.
"Ah Wu, I'm so tired..."
Xie Wu's eyebrows moved, and her hand that was about to push him away suddenly froze in mid-air.
Obviously he had experienced all these things long ago, but when he came out of the hunting palace and watched the gears of fate turning again like in the previous life, he suddenly felt very tired...
He thought of his past life, where he seemed to have gotten everything he wanted, but there was nothing around him.
Mother is gone.
Ah Wu also left.
The world is so big and there are so many people around him, but the people he cares about most in this world are no longer around him.
Feeling the weight of Lu Zhan on her body, Xie Wu's eyes flashed. She remembered what her father had just said and thought of Xie Shi's abnormality. She finally put her hands gently around Lu Zhan's waist.
"Ah Wu, Ah Wu..." Lu Zhan was shocked when he noticed Xie Wu's movements, and he quickly tightened his hand.
Xie Wu was hugged by Lu Zhan so hard that she couldn't breathe. She frowned and frowned, but she still didn't reach out to push Lu Zhan away.
Fortunately, Lu Zhan also noticed Xie Wu's discomfort. After hugging her for a while, he smiled and let go of her hand.
Xie Wu frowned and coughed a few times. Inadvertently, her eyes met Lu Zhan's. Xie Wu blushed slightly, and then she turned her face away in a hurry.
"Ah Wu, Wang Tao will bring someone to your place soon, so you have to inform Uncle Shi in advance so that you can be mentally prepared." Lu Zhan looked at Xie Wu with a smile.
After hearing what Lu Zhan said, Xie Wu didn't even move her eyes. She looked at Lu Zhan calmly and said, "Don't worry, I have already informed my father."
"You, you guessed it?" Lu Zhan looked at Xie Wu in surprise.
He knew Ah Wu was smart. After all, he taught her to her! However, this time, he did not tell Ah Wu about Huai'an. How did Ah Wu guess it?
When Xian saw the surprise in Lu Zhan's eyes, Xie Wu raised her eyebrows and smiled, looking at Lu Zhan sarcastically and said, "What else? In the eyes of Second Young Master Lu, am I that stupid?"
If she hadn't guessed early on that he would use Huai'an to make a fuss, how could she have kept Huai'an to this day!
She has never been someone who likes to put herself in danger!
"Ah Wu, you know that's not what I meant! I just feel a little strange. Since you know that I want to use Huai'an to plan, why don't you come and ask me? Aren't you afraid that I will involve the Wu'an Hou Mansion?" Lu Zhan's eyes were burning.
He looked at Xie Wu and said.
He was very aware of Xie Wu's guard against him.
Especially when she knew that he was reborn like her, she avoided him even more.
Therefore, according to her temperament, after knowing that she was going to use Huai'an's layout, her first priority should be to question him? Or find a way to take out the Wu'an Hou Mansion? However, she did nothing
, even, she didn’t even come to ask him...
Thinking of some possibility, Lu Zhan looked at Xie Wu with eyes that became more and more intense.
And Xie Wu did not intend to deny her thoughts, so she did not avoid Lu Zhan's eyes. She looked at Lu Zhan calmly and said in a cold voice, "Yes, you guessed it right, I did it on purpose! Lu Zhan
, I want to see, what do you think of me, my father, and the Marquis Wu'an Mansion? Is it a knife? Is it a chess piece? Or is it a stepping stone? I just want to take a look!"
Lu Zhan was not angry because of the coldness in Xie Wu's voice. On the contrary, the smile on his lips grew even more, "So, Wu, do you have an answer?"
Xie Wu's eyes sank slightly, and she said in a deep voice, "Second Young Master Lu, the matter is not over yet. It is still too early to draw conclusions now!"
Upon hearing Xie Wu's words, Lu Zhan couldn't help but chuckle. Seeing Xie Wu's eyebrows twisting, he quickly stopped laughing. He stepped forward and took Xie Wu's hand and said solemnly.
She said, "Yes, Ah Wu, you are right! But, Ah Wu, don't worry, if you are willing to bet this game for me, I will definitely not let you lose!"
He was too fond of her. She had never had a sense of security and had to have everything under her own control to feel at ease. But now, she was willing to risk the entire palace on this!
He didn't know how she survived these days, but she did nothing!
She is...
Try to believe him!
After he hurt her like that in his previous life, she was still willing to give him a chance to believe in him!
"Ah Wu, I swear on my life, I will never let you lose this bet!" Lu Zhan firmly held Xie Wu's hand, and he solemnly promised her once again.
"Lu Zhan, it's not that I didn't do anything because I believed in you, I actually..."
"I know that if I disappoint you, you will not hesitate to go to His Majesty and blame the matter on me. You are so smart, you should have seen that there is a gap between my mother and Your Majesty."
"Since you know..."
"But what does that matter? At least you are willing to place a bet for me! Ah Wu, I am very happy, I am really happy..."
At this moment, all the suffering and fatigue were swept away in a trance. Looking at Xie Wuyan's cold eyes, he suddenly felt an unprecedented excitement and expectation in his heart!
Because he knew that he was no longer the only one on the repetitive and long road ahead.
