After a moment of silence, Xie Yuchuan said in a serious tone, "Cousin Qingyuan is wrong. Cousin Qingyao is kind-hearted, generous and magnanimous, and always treats people with kindness."
"Cousin Qingyao is like pure gold and unpolished jade. If it were a small matter, she would definitely not blame you or feel unhappy."
At this point, Xie Yuchuan's handsome face turned serious. "What on earth have you done to make Cousin Qingyao so unwilling to tolerate you? I'm afraid it's an unforgivable crime, something that is condemned by both humans and gods."
"Grandma is not an unreasonable person. She won't favor anyone for no reason. Although there are differences between close and distant relatives, she has a sense of proportion and is very reasonable."
"Although you didn't say it explicitly just now, your words and actions implied that Cousin Qingyao was mean and narrow-minded, and that Grandmother was biased and unfair. This is really wrong."
Playing word games in front of him is underestimating him. He can still tell the good from the bad.
Gu Qingyuan was stunned for a moment, staring at Xie Yuchuan with wide eyes, completely confused as to why things turned out like this?
Xie Yuchuan actually trusted Xie Qingyao so much that he didn't even speak up for himself.
Good, very good!
As expected, she was the only outsider.
They all ganged up on her.
Gu Qingyuan felt a pang in her heart, and the corners of her lips trembled. Then she just said aggrievedly, "So Qingyuan is such a despicable person in the eyes of cousin Yu Chuan. After all, the friendship of the past six months has been... wasted."
Two lines of hot tears rolled out of her eyes.
"Forget it, Qing Yuan won't make any more excuses. If cousin Yu Chuan wants to think of me like this, I can't do anything about it."
As she spoke, she bit her lip, endured the grievance, turned around and followed the old woman to the small Buddhist temple to reflect on her mistakes.
I thought that since she was like this, Xie Yuchuan would at least call her, and I felt a little guilty.
But I only heard a cold voice behind me.
"baffling."
Xie Yuchuan waved his sleeves and left, with a layer of frost on his handsome face.
“…”
Gu Qingyuan's face suddenly darkened.
He, why would he react like this? And even called her incomprehensible?!
Gu Qingyuan felt like there was something stuck in her throat, and only endless anger and resentment remained in her heart.
"Miss Qingyuan, don't think too much. I will send you back to Nanping early tomorrow morning. Just reflect on your actions here today." said the old woman.
Kneeling in the small Buddhist temple, Gu Qingyuan felt anxious and uneasy.
No matter what, she had to stay. She couldn't go back to Nanping in disgrace, otherwise her life would be ruined.
If her grandmother knew that she had done something shameful and was sent back to Nanping, she would definitely punish her severely.
She was told to shave her hair and send to a nunnery to practice asceticism, where she would spend her life surrounded by green lamps and ancient Buddhas, and die in misery.
With so many thoughts in mind, a bold idea popped into my mind.
That's all we can do.
…
He Zheng went out of Xie's house.
This time he came to Runan on a mission ordered by the emperor.
There are many things to do, but everything has its priorities. If I want to escort Xie Qingyao back to Runan, then the things I can do in Runan become the most important things.
He Zheng asked for an imperial decree and came here naturally.
A remote house with its door tightly closed.
Inside the house, He Zheng had an indifferent expression, but his aura was so strong that it made people's scalps tingle.
Yuan Shan, who was standing opposite him, was extremely shocked: "My Lord, you want me to go to Huaizhou to make fire weapons?"
Huaizhou was the fief of Marquis Anguo...
What exactly does he want to do by secretly manufacturing weapons in his fiefdom, weapons of such great destructive power?
If he were someone in the court, he would recognize Yuan Shan at a glance as a genius with weapons.
This person is good at making various offensive and defensive equipment, among which the armor-piercing crossbow, the gunpowder weapon Thunder Bomb, and the rocket Divine Fire Flying Crow are the most eye-catching.
Whoever obtains this person is equivalent to obtaining an arsenal of weapons.
Yuan Shan did not want to get involved in the power struggle, and was also afraid of the power of the fire weapon. He did not want to hurt innocent people, so he hid himself.
Unexpectedly, after hiding everywhere, He Zheng finally found him.
Prince Kang, Prince Qin, Prince An, and even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince were also looking for him in secret.
He Zheng nodded slightly and said calmly: "Just do as you are told."
Huaizhou is rich in minerals and suitable for smelting ironware. Moreover, Huaizhou is some distance away from Shangjing, so it is difficult to be discovered if private soldiers are raised there.
Your Majesty has appointed Marquis Anguo as the General of Assisting the Nation. If he gets the tiger talisman, he can mobilize troops. He himself has two thousand Qilin guards, but that is on the surface. Who knows how many more guards he has behind the scenes.
Yuan Shan thought a lot, "What if I don't agree?"
A hint of murderous intent appeared in He Zheng's eyes.
"I'm not asking for your opinion, I'm just informing you."
Yuan Shan: “…”
His intuition told him that if he didn't agree, he might not be able to leave this door.
"What exactly does the Marquis want to do? Could it be that he wants to..." The word "treason" has not yet come out of his mouth.
Then He Zheng said in a cold voice: "The world is still your Majesty's world."
Yuan Shan swallowed his words and said unhappily, "The fire weapon is too lethal. I really can't bear to see it become widespread."
He Zheng's expression remained unchanged. "Anyone who dies under Huo Wu will deserve to die."
Only a protracted war will cause great suffering and rivers of blood.
What he wants is an absolute crushing victory, a preemptive strike, and a quick victory.
Hearing this, Yuan Shan stopped struggling and pursed his lips, saying, "I am willing to serve you, Lord!"
Huowu fell into the hands of Anguo Hou, who was at least stronger than others. Anguo Hou drove out the southern barbarians and conquered the northern desert to defend his country, so Yuan Shan was willing to trust him.
I believe that the wise Marquis of Anguo will create a peaceful, stable and prosperous Great Xia.
…
In the evening.
Just as Xie Qingyao was about to step out of the room, a tall figure blocked her way like a wall.
