Chapter 351: Being too good is also a kind of trouble
At midnight that night, at the princess's mansion.
Qin Zhengqiu really hasn't come back yet.
Although Wei Changtian has ordered people to search for his whereabouts, the probability of finding him is very slim.
“.”
"Alas, it seems that he still doesn't take my words seriously."
In the bedroom, Old Zhang fumbled with the long sword in his hand, shook his head and sighed, "I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to see your grandfather again in the future."
"Don't be such a jinx."
Wei Changtian curled his lips and muttered something, but in fact he didn't comment on what Old Zhang said.
After he and Old Zhang's discussion and analysis, they have now come to a pretty close guess -
Qin Zhengqiu probably went to find a place to practice the Tiao Yue Sword.
It is still unknown what impact the sword strike had on him, and it is not clear whether it was Qin Zhengqiu himself who made this decision.
But one thing is certain, that is, Qin Zhengqiu's current level of the Moon-Tiaoting Sword must have been greatly improved.
According to previous experience, the higher the realm of the Moon-Tiaoting Sword, the more unable the practitioner is to control himself, and the more he desires that illusory state of great perfection.
Therefore, Qin Zhengqiu must have decided to go down this path to the end.
As for why he left without saying goodbye, maybe he was worried that I would stop him from continuing to practice the Moon-Picking Sword, or maybe he was afraid that he would go crazy and hurt people around him.
Alas. Wei Changtian sighed, feeling quite complicated at this moment.
The gold medal fighter who had been by my side since I went to Shuzhou suddenly left. Although he might come back in the future, I have undoubtedly lost a great helper during this period of time.
But this is secondary. What is more important is that perhaps Qin Zhengqiu will never come back.
After chatting with Old Zhang for a few more words, he got up and walked out of the room.
When Wei Changtian walked back to his own courtyard under the moonlight, he saw Li Wutong waiting for him at the gate from afar.
"Princess, why can't we talk about it tomorrow?"
After walking closer, he asked in a nonchalant tone.
Wei Changtian was in a bad mood, and Li Wutong seemed to know it, so he didn't show any dissatisfaction, but just said softly: "Master Wei, Master Qin is a master of martial arts, and I believe nothing will happen to him no matter where he goes."
"Squeak~"
Wei Changtian casually pushed open the courtyard door and said without further explanation: "Thank you for your concern, Princess. Is there anything else?"
"Oh, the emperor summoned you to the palace tomorrow."
Li Wutong followed him into the courtyard: "I will go with you tomorrow morning."
"Okay, got it."
Wei Changtian nodded, walked along the bluestone path at a moderate pace, and soon stood at the entrance of the main hall.
Now that Yan Luo is most likely finished, it is time for him to talk to Li Qi about the deal they had reached earlier.
"Princess, what else are you going to do?"
Turning his head, Wei Changtian looked at Li Wutong who was still following him, as if waiting for him to open the door. He said with a smile, "Do you want to come in and have a cup of tea?"
"I"
Li Wutong suddenly looked up, hesitated for a while, and then said in a weak voice, "Is it okay?"
“.”
What's going on?
Seeing Li Wutong's sad look, Wei Changtian was a little confused.
Yama has been destroyed, so logically speaking, shouldn't she be extremely happy? Why does it look like her grandfather has also run away? "Okay, come in."
Shaking his head, Wei Changtian was too lazy to think about it, nor did he refuse. He pushed open the door and walked into the house.
Since his "job" required extremely high confidentiality, he took the initiative to request the removal of all servants who were responsible for taking care of his daily life.
But now these people haven't come back yet, so I still have to do chores like changing clothes, boiling water, and lighting candles by myself.
"Shh~"
A gentle blow on the fire stick ignited a long candle, and the faint light flickered and illuminated a corner of the room.
Holding the burning candle, Wei Changtian turned around to light another candle, and at this time he heard a slight noise behind him.
"Boom~"
A copper kettle filled with water was placed on the lit stove. The firelight reflected on Li Wutong's cheeks, as if a light layer of powder had been applied to the latter.
While the water was boiling, Li Wutong picked up her skirt and went to wash the tea set, as if she really wanted to have a cup of tea here.
Wei Changtian didn't even look at him and continued to stagger towards lighting the lamp.
The sounds of candles burning, running water, footsteps, and the rustling of clothes converge in this small room in the silent night.
One is the "Prince Wei", who is extremely powerful and well-known in Daning.
One is the daughter of the royal family, Princess Wuping, who is well-known in Dafeng.
With their status, the two of them were doing chores that only maids would do, and there was no communication at all during the whole process. This should have been an awkward scene.
But unexpectedly, the picture now has an inexplicable harmony.
It was like an old couple who had just returned home from outside.
"Sir, the tea is ready."
I don’t know how long it had been, but “old wife” Li Wutong suddenly called out softly to Wei Changtian who was standing at the window looking at the moon.
The latter turned around and walked to the table and sat down. He raised the teacup and took a sip of the tea at just the right temperature. Then, under Li Wutong's expectant gaze, he smiled and said:
“Good tea.”
I don’t know whether the word “good tea” was praising the tea or the tea art, but it made Li Wutong smile happily.
But this smile soon faded away.
"Master Wei, is Yan Luo really dead?"
"Well, it should be."
Wei Changtian nodded: "Even if it appears again, it will be sixty years later."
“.”
"oh."
Li Wutong's "Oh" came out a little late, and also a little disappointed.
It was as if she didn't want Yan Luo to die.
Of course, this is definitely impossible.
This means that Li Wutong is now reluctant to give up anything else.
Although Wei Changtian was sometimes a bit straightforward, he was not as stupid as Chu Xianping when it came to love between men and women, so he probably had guessed what Li Wutong was reluctant to give up.
Now that Yan Luo is dead, I will naturally return to Shuzhou.
This also means that he and Li Wutong may have to say goodbye forever.
“.”
Wei Changtian had long known about Li Wutong's feelings for him, but he was not quite sure how he felt about the latter.
I definitely can’t say I hate it.
But I can’t really say I like it.
well.
If I were a scumbag, I would definitely take her in without thinking twice. Anyway, my harem is already quite large, so I wouldn't mind having one more.
But the bad thing is that I am not that kind of "scumbag".
Coupled with the values brought from his previous life, Wei Changtian always felt that if there was a choice, marriage should be based on love.
That's why he didn't want to "waste" the girl's time.
He looked at Li Wutong, who was lowering his head and saying nothing, and touched his handsome nose helplessly.
It turns out that being too good is also a kind of trouble.
Wei Changtian suddenly remembered this sentence from his previous life, and at this moment he had a deeper understanding of it.
Too good, and not a scumbag, what a trouble! (End of this chapter)
