"Commander Lin…"
"There should be a place in Zhishui County that is suitable for me and my guards to rest for a while.”
Li Xiu Ning asked.
For now…
Should he rest here for a while?
After Lin Zhexian heard this, his straight eyebrows couldn't help but raise slightly.
However…
"Yes, I do." He still nodded.
Indeed.
As for Zhishui County now…There wasn't much of anything, the only thing that was much.
It was an empty house.
Because…
After Lin Zhexian destroyed the Stone Python Sect.
The remaining houses were all vacated by him. After all, there were only so few people living in such a big place? What a waste!
Therefore…
Lin Zhexian took the disciples of the Stone Python Sect.
All of them moved to Zhishui County, where the commoners lived.
It led to-
The entire Stone Python Sect was empty.
"Not to mention the princess, there are only a dozen people with your guards.”
"Even if it's a hundred or even a thousand people!" Lin Zhexian laughed. Although Zhishui County is not a big place, it can still accommodate it.”
"Oh?"
Hearing this.
It was Li Xiuning who was surprised.
Looking at the buildings not far away, there were many thatched huts.
However…
There should be many villagers in Zhishui County.
Was there still room?
She had only said it casually. She did not expect that there would really be so many empty houses in Zhishui County.
This...
It was beyond her expectations.
However, very quickly.
Li Xiu Ning's face revealed a thoughtful expression. She frowned and asked,""Could it be that Commander Lin wants to drive away a portion of the villagers in Zhishui County?”
“........”
Hah!
Lin Zhexian shook his head helplessly.
He said,"If I really do that..." Wouldn't we lose this bet for sure?"
"Lin Zhexian, let me ask you a question.”
At this moment.
Li Xiu Ning's expression suddenly turned serious.""If you lose this bet, will you really execute it according to the conditions of the bet?”
Hearing this.
"Your Highness, don't you understand me?" Lin Zhexian laughed.”
As expected!
She knew it.
For someone like Lin Zhexian who cherished his life, the bet between him and his father was simply nonsense!
Whether it was winning.
He still lost.
Lin Zhexian would not be passive, but always had the initiative!
In other words.
Even if Lin Zhexian lost the bet.
His head would still be on his neck and would not be handed over to Li Yuan, nor would he be allowed to do as he pleased.
So...
"Everything you've done is just to prevent Imperial Father from losing face because of this?" Li Xiu Ning smiled bitterly.”
She could think of it.
There was only this.
"This is only one of the reasons."
"I'm sure you don't want the conflict between your second brother and your father to continue, right?" Lin Zhexian replied.”
Hearing this.
Li Xiu Ning fell silent.
Every time Lin Zhexian said that, she didn't want this to happen at all.
Originally.
The family could live happily ever after.
Why did they hate each other?
And it was hatred for almost a lifetime! Lin Zhexian…Was this for her own good?
He hesitated for a moment.
"Even though…even though you killed so many people."”
"But…"
"But I have to thank you this time.”
Her tone was very sincere.
After all, Lin Zhexian didn't need to start this gamble.
However…
He still made a bet with Li Yuan.
It was to create a gap between Li Shimin and Li Yuan.
It could ease the pain a little.
For some reason.
Li Xiu Ning's heart actually felt a trace of warmth.
