Pausing, He Lan Qin continued to speak, "All these years, I've made half a mountain out of the river for the dynasty. Xiahou only has one side to protect him, but his title is the same as mine. He was also a pawn that His Majesty had arranged for him to be on guard against me. Xiahou was You'er's uncle. Both Pei Ruochen and Xiahou Chang are loyal to His Majesty. It would be best to use them to guard against me. "

"He's on guard against you, but you're still willing to be ordered around by him?" He Lan Xue asked indifferently.

"He is an overlord. As an overlord, there are naturally many things that we have no choice but to do." He Lan Qin didn't think much of it. "Although I don't agree with many of His Majesty's practices, I'm a soldier. Once I recognize a person, I will carry out all of his orders. If soldiers learn to think, the country is bound to be in turmoil. "

"So I'm not destined to be a soldier." "As far as I'm concerned, if I can't be a decision maker, then I'll stay outside of power and become an hidden expert," said He Lan Xue.

"A Xue, you've always been a proud person." He Lan Qin smiled slightly. "You and His Majesty, if you were born in different times, you would have become outstanding people. "Why did you have to be born in the same dynasty?"

"So what? I've already left."

"Is he really retreating?" He Lan Qin's gaze suddenly became overbearing: "If he really did retreat, then why is it that he still hasn't dissolved the First Heaven Pavilion? Why did Yi Jian's group of Death Soldiers set up so many strongholds in the north of the city? "Why does Mr. Feng still listen to you?"

"That's just self-defense." He Lan Xue didn't retort in the slightest, and said with a calm demeanor, "Wanting to become a real hermit is not something that can be done by leaving the mortal world and becoming one with the world. I have to be strong enough to keep myself away from the tyranny of power. Could it be that this world was ruled by a king? Could it be that this man was a king's subordinate? The real Concealment is not giving up, but surpassing, surpassing the highest authority in the world. "

"I hid my true abilities for five years, but in the end, he only needed to dig up some old debts and he would force me to leave, to be exiled. In front of the imperial power, humans were but ants. I was unwilling to give up on my own power, but I just didn't want to become an ant in his hands. " Pausing for a moment, He Lan Xue asked: "Second Brother, you came this time because you received his order to capture me? What was the crime this time? Abduction of a mother? If it's a crime, I'll take it, but I won't do it. "Tell him that I will take Murong Xiu and leave this place. As long as he does not disturb us in this life, he will be able to live forever!"

"A'Xue, I did not participate in this matter. In the end, Your Majesty could not bear to see us brothers together. In the end, even I don't know what will happen. This time I've come to Sui Yuan for the sake of Yan Han, not you. " He Lan Qin shook his head. "No matter what, I hope that you can take good care of yourself. You're my third brother and he's my big brother. I don't want anything to happen to any of you."

"I do not wish for a day like this to come where you have a choice." The expression on He Lan Xue's face slowed down a little. The faintly discernible sense of wariness from before had also disappeared.

"Right, where is my lover?" He Lanqin was just about to leave when he suddenly thought of something. He casually asked, "If you take Rong Xiu away, what will happen to her?"

He Lan Xue was stunned. She didn't expect that the extremely busy He Lan Qin would be so interested in one of her most famous concubines.

"Didn't she come to Suiyuan as well?" He Lan Qin continued, "Pei Ruochen sent someone to look for her, and then found out that she found you. Aren't you two together?"

"We have been together this month. But she's not here now. " After a long time, Hera Xue finally replied.

"Then where is she?" He Lan Qin asked in surprise.

"She …" He Lan Xue was slightly embarrassed, and then whispered, "She may have left."

"Gone?"

"My wife should know that I want to take Soo Soo away." She won't come at this time to make things difficult for me. " Without even thinking about it, He Lan Xue replied, "Esteemed wangfei has always understood …"

He Lan Xue's heart throbbed before she could finish her sentence. It was as if something was deeply hidden. Because these words didn't require much thought; it was as if dust had been brushed off, and was shining brilliantly.

The Yi people always knew.

Understand what he wants, know what he says and does, know when and where, and leave or stay.

There were so many intelligent people around him, so why in the end, only his lover could understand him?

However, was it because everything she did was so casual and without any complaints? That was why he could, again and again, abandon her as a matter of course?

He Lan Xue suddenly went silent. The throbbing in her heart became stronger and stronger. She felt as if she couldn't breathe.

He Lan Qin didn't notice He Lan Xue's abnormal behavior and just said: "Where can my wife go? The Yi family has long since cut off all ties with her, and she doesn't have any other relatives or friends — it's a mess here. If there's something good, how can you face the friendship of others who stood up for you? "

"I will send Yi Jian to find her." He Lan Xue endured her emotions and whispered, "Don't worry, I won't let her down."

"That was your family matter, I have no right to argue." He Lan Qin waved his hand and casually said, "A Xue, I just want to advise you that there aren't many people in this world who are willing to wholeheartedly consider their own safety. He cherished the sight before him. "Don't do anything that would hurt your loved ones or make them happy."

"Understood, second brother, take care too." He Lan Xue's eyes were gentle. She was like a brother that kept warning him.

He Lan Qin reached out his hand and pressed it onto He Lan Xue's shoulder. He sighed inaudibly and then leaped away.

On the other side, Yan Han, who had long been hiding with his wife in a tree, rubbed his chin as he laughed to himself, "I've heard He Lan Qin's name too many times. This is the first time I've seen him. I didn't expect him to be so handsome."

He Lan Qin's appearance was similar to He Lan Xue. Although he wasn't as beautiful as He Lan Xue, he could still be considered handsome.

Yi Ren tilted her head and looked at the eager man beside her. She only scoffed slightly but didn't say anything.

"It's a pity that he's here. I have to leave now. Otherwise, it wouldn't be bad if I play around with him for a bit." After a while, Yan Han added, feeling quite regretful.

His wife still ignored him. She only looked unblinkingly at He Lan Xue who was standing quietly in the courtyard. She watched him turn around and walk back into the house.

She saw the clarity in his eyes.

For a moment, she almost thought she was overdoing it.

Did A Xue really not know anything? Could he really not sense her hesitation?

Perhaps the touch between lovers is thinner and more sensitive than any brilliant observer.

Most of the time, they knew the same thing. Not believing it was a different matter.

"Come, let's go to the roof." Without waiting for her to think, Yan Han had already wrapped his arms around her waist and spread out like a golden rocs. His voice was as quiet as the night wind as it quietly fell into the place where she used to live for a month.

The roof wasn't high, but the view was good.

They half crouched on top, just in time to see the guards who had previously been ordered to circle around the back of the house.

The guard crossed his arms and made a strange gesture.

Yan Han thus said with a smile, "Looks like nothing will happen tonight. Why don't we go back to the inn to rest first?"

"What's wrong?"

"They're all asleep." Yan Han lifted his hand and lifted off a piece of brick. Through the darkness of the night, the scene in the room vaguely appeared. He gestured for his wife to look inside with wide eyes.

Rong Xiu seemed to have already fallen asleep, sleeping soundly on her side.

He Lan Xue was lying behind Rong Xiu. Her hand moved and lightly rested on her waist. She was using an extremely protective posture to protect her.

Their posture was very tranquil, the night was quiet.

Rong Xiu's breathing was even and safe.

Although there was no movement from He Lan Xue, it was unknown whether she was asleep or not.

His head was slightly lowered as he leaned against the back of her neck, so that his face could not be seen.

Her lover saw his fingers move, and she knew that he was not yet asleep.

When he was thinking, his fingers would unconsciously tap.

As for when she noticed it, it was so natural and unintentional that the lover could not remember.

Anyway, he knew.

"Let's go back." She looked up, said something, then stood up clapping her hands and walked away.

"Sigh …" Yan Han didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He immediately stretched out his hand, "This is a roof after all."

Unfortunately, his speed was still a step too slow. His lover's foot had already slipped and fallen.

Yan Han let out a shadow movement and also leaned forward, barely managing to pull her into his embrace before she landed completely on the ground.

When she looked again, the person in her embrace had her head lowered. The raven's hair was a little messed up by the wind, and its long eyelashes lightly hung down, covering her glass-like eyes.

"What? Is it still uncomfortable to see him with other women?" Yan Han asked with a smile. His tone wasn't serious, but his attitude was very serious.

He wanted to know the answer.

"No, I'm just sorry." The girl shook her head, still holding it, and said slowly: "A Xue really likes her. He clearly knew, but he was still willing to be tricked by her. Why should she let him down when he likes her so much? "

In the moral sense of the lover, one can be unkind, but at least be grateful.

If a man is good to you, how can you be, how can you be cruel to him?

She felt sorry for He Lan Xue. She could even sense the pain that he would experience in advance. She was so sad that her heart was twitching.

Yan Han did not interrupt, but just looked at her quietly.

The night was quiet and beautiful.

"He Lan Xue must have been blind to let you go." When the wind blew, Yan Han sighed as he caressed her cheeks. His voice then quickly mixed with the wind and disappeared.

That night, they returned to the inn, leaving only a few people outside to watch.

Her lover lived alone in a room. First of all, for the first time, she had not fallen asleep.

Instead, he lay on the bed, blinking, thinking of nothing until dawn.

In the other room, Yan Han and the old man were sitting opposite of each other.

In front of them was a large sand table.

"I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to completely withdraw from the Heavenly Court when He Lanqin has come for the King. I didn't expect that the one who we're going to capture is the Heavenly Emperor Queen, Rong Xiu. "Why not, we'll make the best of it …" The old man's voice became softer and softer until it was barely audible.

Yan Han's face was solemn as he listened attentively.
