"Since you said that, I'll do it with you. First, you and I are masters and apprentices, which has also affected my judgment. However, we can cut off the relationship between masters and apprentices. Then I will marry you home openly, as long as you don't dislike it... Well, I'm penniless? Secondly, I won't care even more. You know, I am a clean person, bringing nothing, and taking it away. I don't care about life and death at all, I only care about happiness. Being with you is my greatest happiness. Even if you really die, I will accompany you."

This was easy to say, but Niantong knew that it was a promise. She was afraid that she could not afford it.

"But I don't want to."

"Then I don't care. You have said you like me. You are already my person."

"Hey, it's so numb." Qu Yiran rubbed his arms.

Guo Lili and Jisheng smiled knowingly. As their best friends, for so long, they finally saw them together. It was fake to say that they were not moved.

Niantong didn't know whether to be happy or sad, so she raised the corner of her mouth slightly. She knew how good Tang Xi was to her and would be happy when she was with him.

So...will you just indulge yourself once?

She lives so big, and has always been diligent, struggling, and has to think about it over and over again. This is her personality and also the self-cultivation that her identity must be cultivated in this society. However, now, she is willing to give her a try for Tang Xi.

Jisheng and Qu are still walking among the large maple trees in Hongye Ridge. After the rain, the moon climbs out from behind the dark clouds. The moon is beautiful, and everything is particularly beautiful.

Perhaps it was because the road was a little muddy after the rain, Qu Yiran accidentally sprained her. Ji Sheng quickly supported her with his eyes and hands. Qu Yiran stood up straight with his help, but he didn't realize Ji Sheng's expression at all when he looked at her, and just muttered that the road was so muddy.

When she looked up and saw Jisheng looking straight at her, she realized something was wrong.

She touched her face: "What's wrong? Is there anything on my face..."

"The moonlight is so beautiful." Jisheng said.

"ah?"

"The moonlight in your eyes is so beautiful."

"..." Qu Yiran was a little surprised, "When will you say these stingy love words?"

"I always say it, but I've never said it to anyone else."

Jisheng's serious look made Qu Yiran laugh out loud: "What are you doing? Suddenly you are so serious."

"Do you have no feelings about Tang Xi and Nian Tong today?"

"Yes... I'm very envious and very blessed." Qu Yiran said with his head tilted.

"Would you like to be with me?"

"...?" Qu Yiran was stunned. Although she and Jisheng had already known each other's thoughts, she was still a little scared to tell her so directly whether to be with him.

"Don't want to?" Jisheng asked.

"No. I was just a little surprised." Qu Yiran said.

"Or... I was so happy that I couldn't speak?" Ji Sheng teased.

"You're talking nonsense." Qu Yiran turned around angrily.

"Miss Qu, is she willing to be with me? If she doesn't want to, she will leave?"

"Of course I'm willing..." Qu Yiran held his hand and saw the smug smile on his face, rolled his eyes, "It's a bargain."

"Okay, I'm going to be a bargain." Ji Sheng took her into his arms and felt her hair scent lingering on his nose. It turned out that there was such a beautiful thing in this world.

......

On the second day, Niantong insisted that she was fine and could set off for Jianshun now. Everyone couldn't resist her and had to agree.

The carriage was bumpy, but there were too many things that happened during this period, and everyone was a little overwhelmed. Fortunately, Niantong and Tang Xi, Qu Yiran and Jisheng are all in their own way now. Even if Yi Yang passed away, if you think about it carefully, perhaps death is the real liberation and can give him real freedom. In this way, life these days is not difficult. Finally, some slightly comfortable things have occurred in this protracted battle.

On the carriage, Niantong felt a little sleepy and leaned her body on Tang Xi's lap and took a nap. Guo Lili felt funny and pointed at Tang Xi silently and joked at Qu Yiran.

Tang Xi didn't feel embarrassed. His apprentice and his wife were lying on his lap for a sleep. What's wrong?

I don’t know if Niantong felt their eye contact, so she opened her eyes, looked at them, and said, “You are talking bad things on your back.”

"Why didn't you hear that you are just saying bad things? You little girl are too afraid of us, or have you done something bad?" Guo Lili said.

"You whisper, I'm not allowed to ask!" Niantong said angrily.

"I have the courage to say bad things to you, but, please ask, does that person in your family dare?" Guo Lili teased and glanced at Tang Xi.

Qu still laughed out loud.

Niantong felt a little embarrassed, and sat up with her body tilted, tidied her hair, and muttered in a low voice: "Who is my family? Who is..."

"Don't you admit it?" Tang Xi pinched her face with her hands, and Niantong was so painful that she begged for mercy.

Qu Yiran held back her laughter and said to Jisheng: "Look at the two of them, they are really sweet when they are fighting and playing."

"Do you want it to be so sweet too?" Ji Sheng asked.

Qu Yiran lowered his head embarrassedly.

Guo Lili pretended to sigh and said in infinite sadness: "Look at you two loving couples, I seem to be extra."

Niantong said: "Master Lizi is also very affectionate with Ashikun, but my master's father hasn't come now. Otherwise, we wouldn't have envied you."

"You can talk," said Guo Lili.

"Of course." Niantong smiled flatteringly.

Jisheng said: "Okay, the joke has been finished. Don't say that I don't know anything. Now I'm talking about these things, Niantong, have you ever thought about what happened next?"

Before Niantong could answer, Tang Xi rushed to say: "What happened next is to be calculated step by step, and we are all here, so what's there to worry about."

Niantong knew that Tang Xi was afraid that she would worry, so she took the initiative to tell her. However, after all, this matter was about him. Niantong glanced at Tang Xi, patted his hand, and signaled him to rest.

"After returning to Wanjun Mansion, we strengthened our training. Although I did not do anything for everyone during my time at Hongxiu Villa, I learned about the marching mode there. There is one very important thing. There is a master named Lu Zuoke. Lu Zuoke has a deep celebration with the court, and he is outstanding in his talent, so he needs to be wary of it. In fact..." Niantong hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether he should say anything.

"You said." Jisheng said.

"Everyone should know that Xu Yungui is my biological brother. I don't want to hide these things from everyone. I also have a grudge against the court to kill both parents. I don't pursue them because I don't want to become like my brother Xu Yungui, and I don't want to pass on the hatred from generation to generation... But if I don't pursue them, it doesn't mean I have no resentment in my heart. Moreover, I have seen too many human relationships these days. Are you sure that the current court is really good?" Niantong said.

"If this is the case, it's fine if you say it in front of us. Remember not to say it again in front of others!" Guo Lili said.

Nian Tong looked at Guo Lili deeply and said, "Master Lizi, it is because you are the people I believe the most that I will tell you these things. Although I think the court has indeed done many wrong things, it must be outstanding to be able to stand in the court for a hundred years. I am just an ordinary person, although I shoulder the heavy responsibility... I am sorry, I am a little incoherent now."

"You want to give up everything and leave yourself?" Guo Lili asked.

"Not that. In the past, after I knew my identity, I was full of energy and was very determined to serve the court and sacrifice my life at any time. But as time went by, I found that the court was not all good people, and Hongxiu Villa was not all evil people. Everyone had feelings for them. If they had to kill each other because the faction was not connected, why didn't the six major sects confront each other?"

"It's wrong for you to think so. Hongxiu Villa intends to compete for the throne and change the dynasty. If they hadn't provoked first, the court wouldn't have fought with them."

"If everything is to pursue the roots, most of the people in Hongxiu Villa have done something wrong because the court did something wrong first..."

"Okay, Niantong!" Guo Lili frowned and interrupted her, "I know you have more thoughts than others, but you can't choose the situation now, you can only..."

"Senior sister, everyone has the right to choose, why doesn't Niantong?" Tang Xi asked.

"Hey..." Guo Lili sighed and didn't say anything else.

The harmonious atmosphere just now became awkward. I had different personal positions and Niantong didn’t know what to say. She was also very distressed now. Knowing her destiny may not be a good thing, especially the future where she would die.

Tang Xi understood her thoughts and knew that she was thinking about something messy, so she took her body and asked her to continue leaning against her, saying, "Don't think so much. You are in a bad health. Let's have a nap. If anything, let's go to Wanjun Mansion and discuss it?"

Niantong had to respond in such an awkward atmosphere. Qu Yiran was relieved. If he finally escaped from the clutches of Hongxiu Villa, he would have a disagreement with his own people, which would be too unreasonable.
