Only He Yunxiu and Ouyang Yuan were left in the room. They looked at each other but didn't know what to say. In the end, He Yunxiu spoke first,"You should go. Don't come to this place again. In half a month, I will enter the palace. If you come again and let others know, it will be very disadvantageous to me and father.”
"Do you really want to enter the palace? "If you don't want to, I can take you away immediately. I don't want anything…" Ouyang Yuan said excitedly.
"Shut up!" He Yunxiu shouted, feeling a little excited." I can't leave with you. If I leave, what will happen to my father? I'm He Zhong's daughter. I can't just think about myself." Especially now, I have to enter the palace. Once he entered the palace, his father would be safe and Zhao Shengming would not suppress him.”
"You only think about your father. Have you ever thought about yourself? Once you enter the palace, you won't get any favor. Even if the emperor likes you, it's just for show.”
"I know what I'm doing. You don't have to worry about my matters.”He Yunxiu rejected coldly. Even if he didn't want to, he had to do it. Although she liked Ouyang Yuan, she had to suppress her feelings for her father.
Ouyang Yuan laughed coldly." Alright, you're great. You can forget yourself and do it for others." Then let's just wait and see what your final outcome is. Don't expect me to save you then.”After saying that, he angrily opened the door and was about to leave when he suddenly thought of something. He stopped and said," The Emperor not only wants the Night-Luminescent Pearl this time, but he also wants to find the Sixth Prince. Even if he dies, he must find his descendants and eliminate future troubles forever. No matter how deep you hide him, it's useless. If you still want to live, don't go against him.”After saying that, he slammed the door and left.
Although He Yunxiu could cut off her feelings for her father and turn a blind eye to Ouyang Yuan for the sake of the current situation, she did not dare to ignore his last words. He hurriedly chased after him. Where was Ouyang Yuan's shadow? She couldn't help but feel disappointed. She turned around and suddenly realized that Shen Xiyin was standing not far away, looking at her quietly. He walked over and asked carefully,""You saw it just now?"
"Is that Ouyang Yuan?" Shen Xiyin nodded and asked.”Even though she asked, Shen Xiyin was already certain that this person was Ouyang Yuan, her father's murderer. Not only that, she also knew that He Yunxiu and Ouyang Yuan had an extraordinary relationship.
"Do you still want to kill him?" He Yunxiu asked worriedly.
"Father and Uncle Li both died in the hands of this man. I will never forget it. Just like Huangfu Ye, I also want to avenge my father. If you were me, you probably wouldn't give up either.”Shen Xiyin looked at He Yunxiu and asked with a bitter smile," I know I'm not his match, so I won't act rashly. I'm waiting for an opportunity."”
"Do you think you can kill him when the time is right?”
Shen Xiyin shook her head." I'm not confident, but I won't give up. Even if I die in the end, I won't have any regrets. I'm like that, and so is Huangfu Ye. But before that, I hope to find Huangfu Ye, even if it means seeing him for the last time. Actually, I'm here to bid you farewell. I'm going to find Huangfu Ye. I can't wait here. I can't wait.”
"Didn't we agree on this just now? Why did you suddenly change your mind?”
"I thought about it carefully and decided to look for him personally. I appreciate your good intentions, and I hope you can understand my eagerness to find a husband. Please tell Grand Preceptor He that I thank him for taking me in. Tell him that I will return in three days regardless of whether I can find Huangfu Ye or not.”Afraid that He Yunxiu would stop him, he jumped into the darkness. After a while, she felt someone behind her. She turned around and saw He Yunxiu." Miss He, you…"
"I'm still worried about you. How about this? I'll go with you. I'm more familiar with the capital.”He Yunxiu said as she walked alongside her.
Shen Xiyin was very touched by her reaction, but she was still worried for her."If you leave with me, what if Grand Preceptor He asks?”
"Don't worry, this isn't the first time. Besides, if he knows that we're together tomorrow, he'll definitely understand what's going on and be more at ease. As long as we can return within three days, it will be fine.”
Shen Xiyin was relieved to hear her say that. Together, they sped up. As they walked, Shen Xiyin suddenly realized that the wind behind them was strange, as if someone was chasing them. She stopped and looked back. She didn't see anyone else, but Shen Xiyin didn't dare to be careless. She felt that something was wrong. There must be someone. He Yunxiu saw that she had stopped, so she stopped as well. She returned to her side and asked,""What's wrong? Why aren't you leaving?"
"I think someone is following us.”Shen Xiyin looked around and said warily.
"Is that so?" He Yunxiu also looked around, feeling a little nervous. Actually, he had heard the voice earlier. After thinking about it, he felt that it might be Ouyang Yuan. Now, she only hoped that Ouyang Yuan would not lay a hand on Shen Xiyin for her sake. If the two of them hadn't fallen out just now, He Yunxiu would still be confident. However, Ouyang Yuan was really angry with what he said just now. If they met on a narrow road, who knew what would happen. As she was feeling uneasy, she suddenly heard Shen Xiyin shout from the side…
"Young Master Fu!"
He Yunxiu turned around and saw Fu Ruihai standing in front of her. Was she wrong? That person was not Ouyang Yuan, but Fu Ruihai? Fu Ruihai looked at them and did not say much. He only said,"There's someone behind you. Hurry up and leave. I'll deal with that person."”Before Shen Xiyin could react, He Yunxiu pulled her away. Shen Xiyin was worried about Fu Ruihai and couldn't help but turn around to look. The night was dark, and the two of them walked quickly. Soon, they could not see the familiar figure. Shen Xiyin was very disappointed, but when she thought of Huangfu Ye, she hurried forward without looking back.
Fu Ruihai only looked away when he saw the two of them leave. Just now, he went to look for Regret Daoist and Shen Xiyin, but they were not there. He knew that they had come here, so he hurriedly chased after them. Coincidentally, he saw this scene, so he could not care less. He suddenly appeared and asked Shen Xiyin and He Yunxiu to leave quickly. Although he found it strange that he didn't see Regret Daoist, he didn't have the time to ask. Especially now, when he saw Ouyang Yuan standing in front of him, he told himself that he couldn't be careless. This person was not easy to deal with. He smiled gently and walked over slowly. He pretended to be ignorant and asked,"Lord Ouyang, what do you intend to do by coming here at this time?”
"Don't you know why I'm here?”Ouyang Yuan snorted and asked," One of the two people you let go is a criminal of the imperial court. He was ordered to be arrested. Are you going to stop him, Brother Fu?"”
"I wouldn't dare. I just want to ask, if Shen Xiyin is a criminal of the court, then who is He Yunxiu?”Fu Ruihai followed his words and continued to ask," To put it simply, He Yunxiu is harboring a criminal. Her crime is increased. Logically speaking, she should be arrested. But would Lord Ouyang do that?”
" Fu Ruihai, you…" Ouyang Yuan was forced speechless.
Fu Ruihai smiled and continued," Lord Ouyang, a straightforward person doesn't beat around the bush. Zhao Luyan knows what your relationship with He Yunxiu and He Zhong is, and so do I." Of course, I'm not forcing you to do anything. I just hope that you remember what you promised me back then.”
"One wrong move, and the whole game will fall through. I shouldn't have listened to you and let them go.”Ouyang Yuan said in frustration," If I hadn't listened to you, Shen Xiyin and Huangfu Ye wouldn't have appeared here, and Grand Preceptor He wouldn't have encountered so many problems. It's all because of you."”Ouyang Yuan looked at Fu Ruihai and said hatefully. The sword at his waist was already in his hand, ready to be pulled out at any time.
Fu Ruihai knew what he was going to do when he saw his hands hanging down. He also pressed his hand on the sword handle, ready to unsheathe at any time. However, he did not want to do this. It was not a good thing to be enemies with Ouyang Yuan. So, he only asked,"Could it be that Lord Ouyang really wants to cooperate with Zhao Luyan?"”
"I don't want to work with her." Ouyang Yuan shook his head." I can see what kind of person Zhao Luyan is. She's not an ordinary woman. She's ambitious. I can't afford to offend such a person, and I don't want to. The reason why he had agreed to her request back then was because they had the same goal, to get rid of future troubles. Frankly speaking, if Young Master Fu had the same thoughts as Miss Zhao, she wouldn't have asked me to do it.”
Fu Ruihai only smiled and did not comment."Zhao Luyan and I were originally the same kind of people, but later on, I realized that she was too vicious. And I didn't want to kill anyone anymore, so we fell through.”Fu Ruihai said with a smile as if he did not care.
"Don't want to kill? That might not be the case, right?" Ouyang Yuan sneered." As far as I know, you've already killed many people for Zhao Shengming. Also, you didn't show any mercy when you killed Huangfu Lingtian. Do you not want to kill anyone, or do you not want to kill Shen Xiyin?”
"Even if I don't want to kill Shen Xiyin, what are you going to do?”Fu Ruihai looked at him and asked calmly," My foster father asked me to protect her, and I agreed. So I will keep my word." Ouyang Yuan, have you ever thought about who is the most innocent in this matter? Huangfu Ye and Shen Xiyin. They had nothing to do with this matter, but they still had to die. Didn't they feel that it was cruel?”
"I have no choice but to be loyal to the emperor. They could only blame themselves for being Shen Muwen's daughter and Huangfu Lingtian's son. If they were just ordinary people, they would not have encountered such a situation.”Ouyang Yuan said helplessly.
"But I can see that you still want them to live. Otherwise, you wouldn't have agreed to my request.”
"I did promise you, but you know why. I don't have any sympathy. Whether they live or die has nothing to do with me. It's just that when you mentioned He Yunxiu and He Zhong, I hesitated for a moment before agreeing to you. Now, I really regret believing your words and sparing their lives. Now, I've harmed the most important person to me. I really regret what I did back then.”
"So you want to kill Shen Xiyin to make up for your 'wrongdoing'?”# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:052520186:08PM
