Chapter 179 I will not offend others unless they offend me
The year is over with the sound of firecrackers, and the spring breeze brings warmth to Tusu. In the bright sunshine, every household always replaces the old charms with new ones.
Early in the morning on the first day of the New Year, as the sky is just getting bright, the world becomes bustling.
The air seemed to still be filled with the smell of sulfur and saltpeter from firecrackers. Families went out of their homes to visit relatives and friends, and the huge city of Shuzhou was filled with festive atmosphere.
“Wow~”
In the yard, Yuan'er, who had gotten up early, was pouring water on the ground, and Wei Changtian, who had not slept all night, slowly stood up and stretched his body.
The amount of information brought by the system update was too much. He spent a whole night thinking before finally clarifying his future "policy of action" -
I will not offend others unless they offend me.
As long as these thirteen Sons of Heaven don't take the initiative to cause trouble for me, I won't cause trouble for these people.
You guys achieve your destiny, and I'll live mine. It's best if everyone lives in peace.
As for the system, just pretend it doesn't exist. Anyway, my current golden finger is enough, and the remaining two thousand points are enough to deal with some emergencies.
There is really no need to put yourself in danger just to earn system points.
Xiao Feng has a life-and-death feud with me, there's nothing I can do.
But it's impossible that every other person has a grudge against me, right?
Especially the first eleven "protagonists" who were far away from Daning, I had never even heard of them.
Of course, if they really came all the way to provoke me, "Miss Xu, wake up!"
Yuan'er's voice floated in through the window.
After keeping vigil yesterday, Xu Qingwan did not go back, but stayed here for the night.
"Well, I'm leaving now. Please tell the young master when he wakes up."
"Miss Xu isn't staying for breakfast?"
"No, I'm on duty today, so I have to get up early."
"Squeak~"
The door suddenly opened and Wei Changtian stood at the door and stretched.
"Let's go. I'll take you to the Xuanjing Division."
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, there were many pedestrians and carriages on the street, but the roadside shops were closed.
As a law enforcement agency, Xuan Jingsi definitely needs someone on duty during holidays.
Given Xu Qingwan's relationship with Wei Changtian, she shouldn't have been tasked with such a tough job, but Comrade Xu took the initiative to ask to be on duty.
He probably felt that he was all alone in Shuzhou and had nothing to do even on holiday, so he might as well leave this opportunity to other colleagues who could reunite with their families.
"Is this your first time away from home for the New Year?"
As the carriage drove along the busy streets, Wei Changtian yawned and asked casually, "Do you miss home?"
“A little.”
Xu Qingwan nodded honestly and whispered, "I wrote a letter to my parents a few days ago."
"write a letter?"
Wei Changtian immediately became interested: "Did you mention our marriage?"
Xu Qingwan pinched the corner of her clothes embarrassedly: "Yes, Daddy said it's better to wait until you return to the capital before we get married."
"Wait for me to return to the capital?"
Wei Changtian curled his lips: "There are still more than two years."
“It’s okay.”
Xu Qingwan lowered her head and said, "Don't say two years, even if it's twenty years I'm willing to wait."
"You are willing to wait, but I am not." Wei Changtian muttered softly.
"ah?"
Xu Qingwan raised her head blankly: "Why?"
"Well, there's no reason, I just want to marry you as soon as possible."
"But, but I can't make the decision on this matter alone."
Xu Qingwan blushed: "No, but I can"
"Um???"
Wei Changtian was instantly shocked: "What can I do?!"
"You can write another letter to discuss it with Dad."
“.”
"What’s wrong with you?"
"fine."
Wei Changtian shook his head: "It's just excitement."
Half an hour later, after sending Xu Qingwan to Xuan Jingsi, Wei Changtian did not go back directly, but turned a corner and went straight to Yongfengfang in the west of the city.
The carriage went around and around and stopped in a small alley. After Wei Changtian got off the carriage, it turned left and right for nearly a quarter of an hour before finally stopping at the door of an ordinary little house.
Without knocking, he looked around and climbed over the wall into the yard.
The courtyard is not big, but it is very tidy. There is an orchid planted in the small garden, and many flower buds have emerged among the leaves.
A woman in a linen skirt was bending over by the well to draw water, and she didn't notice Wei Changtian coming in quietly.
"Take some time to pull out all the flowers and plant some vegetables or something."
Wei Changtian suddenly spoke up, and in the woman's horrified eyes he said to himself: "You are no longer a princess. Ordinary people don't have the leisure to plant flowers."
"Sir, what's wrong with you?"
Ning Yuke opened her mouth in shock, obviously not expecting Wei Changtian to suddenly appear here.
"I was passing by and stopped by to take a look."
Wei Changtian walked forward and poured the water in the wooden barrel into the water tank. Then he put down the wooden barrel and took the lead and walked into the main house.
"Come in and talk."
“.”
Like the courtyard, the furnishings in the main house were equally simple, but they had everything one could need. The fire in the wall was burning brightly, and the house was warm.
This was the first time the two had met since Ning Yuke moved out. After more than a month, Princess Rouan seemed to have learned how to take care of herself.
From having someone to take care of everything from food, clothing, housing and transportation to now having to do everything by oneself, this speed of adaptation is considered quite good.
"Sit down."
Taking a sip of hot tea, Wei Changtian looked at Ning Yuke standing in front of him with a smile: "What? You don't welcome me?"
"I dare not."
Ning Yuke shook her head quickly and sat down on the chair nervously: "I was just a little surprised just now, I don't know if I did something wrong."
So humble? Wei Changtian sighed secretly and said calmly: "Don't think too much. I heard Chu Xianping about the Tongzhouhui. You did a good job."
"The reason I came here today is mainly because I have something I want to discuss with you."
"Sir, please give me your orders."
Ning Yuke immediately expressed her position: "My life was given by you, sir. I am willing to do anything for you."
“It’s not that exaggerated.”
Wei Changtian waved his hand: "This is not done for me, but for yourself."
"For me"
Ning Yuke was stunned, and then she heard Wei Changtian say softly:
"Princess, the matter of the prince's assassination has now come to an end."
"The people sent by the court, openly or secretly, have basically withdrawn from Shuzhou, and the remains of the prince and the two princesses have also been sent back to the capital for burial."
"Then it's time for Princess to plan for her future."
“My future.”
Ning Yuke murmured, with a trace of struggle on her face: "I, I don't know what you mean, sir."
“It’s very simple.”
Wei Changtian glanced at Ning Yuke.
"Princess, you have only two options right now."
"Either you hide your identity from now on, live the rest of your life in peace and stability, and just pretend that the past never happened."
"Or, do everything you can to get revenge."
Uh, this chapter should be the first chapter of volume three, but it was posted in volume two. I’ll just make do with it...
