I will give you a chance to take revenge, "Pei Ruochen said lightly," After one month, the Chundi Emperor will bring the new prince to offer sacrifices to the Sky, and the guards to the imperial guards will be the army. At noon, when the emperor pays his respects, I will arrange for the imperial guards to change shifts, and there will be a quarter of an hour of time before the emperor can do anything.

"You'll capture me after it's completed. After that, you'll prop up the little prince's authority while I'll bear the responsibility of committing the crime?" Houlan asked, amused.

Pei Ruochen remained expressionless as she calmly replied, "Yes."

"Am I an idiot?" He Lan Xue asked.

"No, but you have to." Pei Ruochen tried to break him.

He Lan Xue was silent for a while, and then bitterly smiled: "I know that after I finish, there won't be any change in the outcome. Why would I go and seek my own destruction? No, I won't do it. "

"Could it be that you want your most loyal subordinates and your beloved girl to die in front of you?" Pei Ruochen looked up and asked indifferently.

His tone was as if he was asking He Lanxue: "Do you want to drink water? Do you want to eat?"

He Lan Xue still smiled bitterly. "My beloved girl is my lover. She is safe now. As for Ah Xiu, although I would like to take her away, maybe it will be better if she stays." No matter how bad forgiving it was, it wouldn't do anything to his own daughter. As for Yi Jian, he will not die for me, so it can be said that he has done his duty for me. " At this point, He Lan Xue raised her voice and shouted, "Right, right! Sword Transformation!"

A dozen or so figures shot out from the bottom of the water, like swordfishes, towards Yi Jian's location. He Lan Xue had also made her move, the two guards behind her had just blocked the attack of the people in the cabin, He Lan Xue's figure slightly moved, she had already moved to the cabin door, grabbing Rong Xiu's wrist, she shouted, "Let's go." The cabin door was broken. Someone from the outside forcefully opened it up. He Lan Xue pulled Rong Xiu along and jumped onto a boat beside the pleasure boat. The boat was dragged over a dozen people's strength from the bottom of the water. There was no trace of water on the surface of the water.

The boat gently swayed, and in an instant, the boat had already sailed for several zhang.

Yi Jian had been saved as well. He jumped into the water and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

He Lan Xue released Rong Xiu and walked to the bow of the ship. She cupped her hands toward Yan Han and said with a smile, "We will part here. We will invite His Majesty back another day." Before he could finish his words, he was already far away.

"He's a madman, but not a fool." Yan Han looked at the remaining water marks on the lake surface with indifference and softly said.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. I've already prepared the rest." Pei Ruochen replied with a calm expression.

Standing on the bow of the boat, He Lan Xue turned around and looked at the boat disappearing into the distance. Not only did she not feel relieved, but she also had a slight suspicion: Yan Han wasn't someone that was easy to deal with.

While thinking, She Lan Xue released Rong Xiu and turned to look at her.

In his line of sight, he saw that her eyes were glazed and her face expressionless. One look was enough to tell that she had lost her true nature.

He Lan Xue couldn't find any clues, but her heart was filled with doubts. She could only wait until she saw Feng Jiu, then come back to ask for confirmation. Just as he was thinking about Feng Jiu, he saw Feng Jiu sitting on a small boat, floating slowly above the lakeside, fishing for entertainment.

Feng Jiu, wearing a bamboo hat, was leisurely sitting on the deck. Behind him, there was a young lady dressed in the attire of a fisherman, sitting cross-legged in the cabin. In front of him was a small table with several plates of snacks on it.

Hearing the sound of water, Feng Jiu raised his fishing hook and said softly, "I've finally caught the hook."

At the end of the rod, a large silver fish gleamed in the twilight.

The people on the shore had all dispersed, leaving only the lantern, which made the water surface sparkle. The woman stood up, fishing with her hand while praising.

It was as if he was a happy fisherman.

Looking at the surprise, He Lan Xue slowed down the boat, left Rong Xiu on the boat and jumped onto the fishing boat.

As soon as he boarded the boat, he pulled the young girl who had almost fallen because of fishing and complained, "Why aren't you obediently waiting for me at Fallen Phoenix Manor?"

She had followed him when he left.

The girl dressed as a fishwife was none other than Yi.

She turned around and smiled sweetly at him. Then she pointed at Feng Jiu and replied, "He brought me here."

Thus, He Lan Xue looked at Feng Jiu with an inquiring look.

As Feng Jiu placed the silver fish into the fish basket, he casually said, "I heard that at this time, the fish at Lin Bo Lake are the most delicious. I momentarily felt hungry, so I followed along."

He Lan Xue looked at him deeply, using her eyes to interrogate him about his true purpose.

As a result, Feng Jiu stopped keeping her in suspense. He called out to He Lan Xue behind her, "Empress, you should leave now. You can still make it to the palace before the door closes."

He Lan Xue turned her head around in surprise. The eyes of Rong Xiu, who was still in a daze like a puppet a moment ago, suddenly moved. She lifted up her skirt and looked at Feng Jiu Ying. She softly asked, "How did Mister Feng know I was pretending?"

"Sure, the person who gave you the Gu happened to be an old friend of Fengzhuang. You persuaded him to act in this scene with you using the high official's magnanimity. He sent a message to me after he returned." Feng Jiu said slowly, "You want to use this opportunity to escape and then return to the palace to warn the Chundi Emperor, right?"

"That person agreed to work with me, and he got your approval from the very beginning?" Rong Xiu's eyes turned cold as she asked in a complex manner.

"Empress, there's no need to worry. I have no other intentions. I just want to lend the empress a hand." Feng Jiu said indifferently.

"Will you guys let me go warn His Majesty?" A sense of caution suddenly welled up from within her heart. Yesterday, she had expended herself to the point of almost luring him into action, and she had persuaded the person who was invited by Pei Ruochen to do so to cover up for her. She had never thought that that person would not be infected by the Gu from the very start, and instead lured her into revealing it herself from the very start.

How could she believe such scheming? If she could do this to her own father, who else would she believe in in this world?

He Lan Xue didn't show much surprise on her face at first. From the moment she calmly placed the wine cup next to his mouth, he had already noticed something strange. It was just confirmation of his thoughts. However, Murong Xiu's current cautious attitude caused him to be silent. Feng Jiu acted as a representative and continued, "From the beginning, we have never harmed the Empress, right? Otherwise, Yi Jian wouldn't have been trapped by Yan Han. "

Rong Xiu was right. Her face was a little red, but she still voiced her doubts. "You guys …." Will we really forgive His Majesty? "

"Nope." He Lan Xue suddenly interrupted, "It's impossible to forgive the hatred for killing my mother."

"Ah Xue …" Murong Xiu felt a stab of pain in his heart as he whispered his name. "If it's for me, can you …"

"No." "After this time, if you continue to stand by He Lan Chun's side, perhaps you will inevitably become his enemy. I can promise you, no matter what you do, in my lifetime, I will definitely not hurt you. But against He Lan Chun, perhaps I will not take his life, but I must ask for an explanation from him."

The last time the Empress Dowager had been ill, and the fire, it had been so much and so much that he could not see it all clearly.

He Lan Chun owed him an explanation.

"Ah Xue …" Murong Xiu's face paled. He wanted to say something, but felt powerless.

He Lan Xue withdrew her gaze from her body. With her arms slightly folded, she embraced the girl who had been quietly watching by the side.

"You and I are calm now, but it's not good for Li Jun to be here. Xiu, if there's no business between us, we won't meet again." He Lan Xue coldly interrupted her words.

Rong Xiu was startled and looked at him silently, but she didn't say anything else. In the end, she bowed towards him before turning her head to instruct the person holding the boat, "Let's go, to the shore."

Her delicate body gradually turned into the blurry spot where the lights were burning.

She was going to rush back to the palace in the middle of the night and call the police for He Lan Chun.

When she was far away, her lover suddenly said, "A Xue, you don't have to do this."

She looked down at her.

Her lover's face was calm.

He Lan Xue raised her head and lightly said, "Even if you don't care, I will still do it. Since you are with me, I will be responsible for you. If I continue to pester you like this, even if you didn't say anything, I would look down on myself. "

"But it's still … "It hurt a bit." The woman lowered her head and ruffled her hair.

"It's for her own good that I'm hurting her now. Since I can't give her anything, I might as well tell her." He Lan Xue pondered for a moment before pointing to something else: "My love, Yan Han is asking about you today."

Her lover was silent.

"I've always thought about not giving you a chance to meet up. After a while, there won't be anything left to do, but just now, I made another decision." "I hope that we can be honest and get along with each other clearly. I can't deceive myself, and I won't allow you to deceive yourself either. When the time comes, I will accompany you to the Yan Kingdom to meet him. But before that, don't think about anything, okay?"

Her lover looked up at him with clear, watery eyes.

"You have always been carefree and carefree. In reality, in your heart, you might have been aware of everything. As long as there is something, you would put it in your heart and think it over by yourself. This is not good, lover. "Think about it carefully. From the moment we realized this, I have encountered many things. There are many emotions that have never been hidden from you, and you know them all. Yet, from start to finish, I have never known exactly how you look at them." He Lan Xue smiled. She looked at her with encouragement and said softly, "Tell me everything, lover. No matter what thoughts or difficulties you have, tell me everything. Think of me as someone you can rely on. What do you say?"

Hesitating for a moment, she looked up with a bright smile, "I've always relied on you."

"My beloved!" He Lan Xue gloomily called out to her. Although she still had the same smile on her face, although she still had that heartless look, but he had already seen the depths of her indifference. It was indifference, indifference to the world.

Her laziness and laziness had failed her, yet her personality was so independent. Anything that happened to her would only leave a faint shadow in her eyes. In the end, she would only do what she thought was right.

Even if it touched her heart, once, twice, thrice … That was not enough, and a lifetime, perhaps, would still require a very, very long time.
