Princess Hui'an closed her eyes: "I fell asleep!"

The fire in front of Wei Ting and Su Xiaoxiao burned out.

There was not enough dry firewood in the cave to support two fires until dawn, so Wei Ting simply carried Su Xiaoxiao back to the original fire.

Su Xiaoxiao rested her head on his long legs, and he pulled over his dried robe to cover her.

Su Xuan and Princess Hui'an sat opposite the two of them, the flickering firelight illuminating the faces of the four.

Wei Ting was hugging his own wife, which was natural and there was nothing to be ashamed of.

Su Xuan, this nameless guy, had physical contact with the princess, but he was able to remain calm and composed, even calmer than him.

Ever since Wei Ting learned about Su Xuan's past from his second brother, he would no longer treat him as an ordinary person.

He appears calm on the surface, but who knows if he is really as calm as water.

"Chat?" Wei Ting asked casually.

Su Xuan glanced at him indifferently.

Before Su Xuan's identity was exposed, he had always been a quiet and gentle person. After taking off his disguise, he seemed too lazy to pretend anymore and smiled less often.

Looking at him casually always gives people a sense of loneliness and isolation.

Wei Ting said: "I won't beat you."

Su Xuan said: "You can't beat him either."

Wei Ting said fiercely: "You want to fight?"

If Su Mo was here, the two of them would have started fighting.

Su Xuan is not the eldest brother and does not have such a strong desire to win.

Wei Ting once thought that he and his second brother got along well, perhaps because of their similar personalities, but now he no longer thinks so.

Although the second brother is also a taciturn person, he has a warm heart.

Su Xuan's heart is like a dead glacier.

Wei Ting is a grown man, so naturally he wouldn't feel sorry for or pity another grown man.

He was just a little puzzled: "You are the son of a marquis, but not the eldest son. You have to inherit the family business. If you can't practice martial arts, then don't practice martial arts. Why do you have to force yourself to join the assassin alliance? Were you forced by your master?"

Su Xuan did not answer him, but asked: "Are you sure you want to talk to me about this?"

Of course not.

Wei Ting is not interested in a grown man, and he understands Su Xuan's intentions for strategic reasons.

Knowing yourself and your enemy, you will win every battle. He has to guard against Su Xuan attacking his father again.

Wei Ting looked at him nonchalantly: "If you are forced, I advise you not to touch my father. I am afraid that my father is the only one in the world who can deal with the leader of the assassin alliance!"

Su Xuan didn't say anything.

Wei Ting had said all he wanted to say. He was not afraid of a real fall-out.

"Are the deaths of my third, fourth, and fifth brothers related to the Killer Alliance?"

Su Xuan said: "I haven't heard that the Killer Alliance has a second mission in Shattered North Pass."

Wei Ting stared into his calm eyes and asked, "What happened to my eldest brother, second brother, and sixth brother? They all lost a part of their memory. Who did this?"

Su Xuan said: "I left early, so I don't know what happened afterwards. I only know that the Saint Lady did go to Suibei Pass, and the poisoning of General Wei Xu must have something to do with her."

This speculation coincides with Wei Ting's.

Ordinary poisons can't do anything to his father. Only a poison expert like the Saint can do it.

Thinking of the Saint, Wei Ting's eyes flashed with a cold light: "Then how did you know that my second brother was in the Western Jin Dynasty?"

Su Xuan replied: "I don't know. I just heard of Zhuge Qing's name and did some research on his background. It was my cousin who told me that Wei Qing might still be alive, so I made this guess."

As he spoke, he added another piece of wood to the fire.

As soon as he moved, Princess Hui'an slipped into his arms.

The soft body, with the sweet fragrance of a young girl, lay softly on his legs.

She faced the direction of Wei Ting and Su Xiaoxiao with her clothes slightly open.

He took the robe and covered her with it.

Wei Ting looked straight at Su Xuan, "One last question. There is a financial sponsor behind Beiyan who gave them a lot of military pay. Is this financial sponsor the King of Southern Xinjiang?"

Su Xuan paused: "Yes."

Wei Ting clenched his fists.

really!

The Northern Yan launched an attack on the Great Zhou with the support and instigation of the King of Southern Xinjiang.

The military pay of an army of two hundred thousand for several years is a considerable expense. As it is done secretly, it cannot be paid from the national treasury, but can only be paid from the private treasury of the King of Southern Xinjiang.

Where did the King of Southern Xinjiang get so much money?

We can only rely on the Cheng family’s mines.

The tragedy of the Wei family is closely related to the King of Southern Xinjiang and the Saint Girl! He wants these two to pay the price!

…

There are many ferocious beasts in the mountains and forests.

Wei Ting and Su Xuan took turns on night duty, Su Xuan was on duty in the first half of the night and Wei Ting was on duty in the second half.

When Princess Hui'an woke up, it was already daybreak and the rain had stopped.

The light from the sky was somewhat blinding.

She found herself lying next to a fire that was almost burnt out, with only a few sticks of charcoal still emitting light smoke.

Underneath her was Su Xuan's outer robe.

There was no one in the cave.

A wave of panic enveloped her, and she sat up with a start: "Su Xuan! Little follower!"

Su Xuan stepped inside.

He held a few washed fruits in his arms and in his right hand a water bucket made of large leaves, which was filled with sweet spring water.

He handed the water and fruit to Princess Hui'an and said, "The place here is simple and crude. Please make do with it."

When she saw him, Princess Hui'an's heart, which had almost jumped out of her throat, finally settled down.

She took the water.

Su Xuan placed the fruit on his outer robe with some clean leaves and turned to leave.

Princess Hui'an washed herself in the spring water and called him in: "Where are the little follower and Brother Ting?"

"They left." Su Xuan said.

Su Xiaoxiao woke up hungry before dawn.

Wei Ting was angry but couldn't bear to let her go hungry, so he took her back to the city to eat.

Princess Hui'an knew that Su Xiaoxiao was still pregnant and couldn't go hungry.

She took a fruit and handed it to him.

Su Xuan said: "I have eaten."

Princess Hui'an took a bite and it felt a little sour, not as sweet as the fruits in the palace, but she liked it very much.

She couldn't help blushing when she thought of the scene last night when she took the initiative to lean on his shoulder.

When she returned to the capital, she went to see the Empress Dowager and asked her to give Su Xuan to her as her husband.

Princess Hui'an secretly looked at him and said, "Su Xuan, have you ever been so kind to others?"

Su Xuan picked up his outer robe from the ground and said, "No."

Princess Hui'an raised the corners of her lips, and suddenly she felt that the fruit in her hand had become sweeter.

Su Xuan continued, "The princess is of noble status, and it is my duty to serve her."

Princess Hui'an was unhappy when she heard this: "What if I'm not a princess?"

Su Xuan said: "The princess is my cousin's friend. My cousin once asked me to take good care of the princess. Since I promised, it is my responsibility."

Princess Hui'an walked around to him and looked at him intently: "Then...what if the little follower didn't ask you to do that? Would you still take care of me?"

Su Xuan met her expectant gaze and said calmly, "No."

Princess Hui'an's heart felt as if it were pricked by a needle.

After Su Xuan finished packing, he turned around and left the cave.

Princess Hui'an walked to the cave entrance and said angrily, "I won't believe it! I don't believe a word you say!"

I'm just a dozen votes away from breaking 700. You don't need to keep the guaranteed monthly ticket, you can vote first. Let's all help me break 100.

In addition, regarding the setting of Su Xuan and Su Li, they were twins at first, but later it was changed so that Su Xuan was two years older.

I checked the backstage before going to bed, and it was 696, only 4 votes away.
