Lan Nuoling nodded, with infinite admiration for her younger brother in her heart. If it were someone else, such an arrangement would probably have been a direct attack on the victim.
But A-di did the opposite and pulled the person out of the quagmire directly. Such an action without holding any grudges would inevitably lead to his downfall even if he knew the intention.
"Don't be happy too soon. Since Prince Nanyang and you are both the Empress's people, the choices made by Li Yi and Jiang Lanyun now may not be without the Empress's instructions." Xu Tianze exhaled a breath of foul air, but he was not happy at all.
Compared to these, he prefers Jiang Lanyi's simplicity, which is to express his feelings directly.
If it were in the past, he might have chosen someone like Jiang Lanyun, because these things were most beneficial to him and he could get the most benefits.
But in this situation now, his mood has changed a lot, and he prefers a few sincere words of thanks.
"Your Majesty has no intention of doing so. On the contrary, Your Majesty hopes that you can enjoy what you have now." Lan Nuoling shook his head with a firm tone.
"Brother, we are in a period of peace now, isn't it good to enjoy the present moment?" Why are you still thinking about revenge?
Although Lan Nuoling didn't say the rest of the sentence, Xu Tianze still understood what she hadn't said. He looked at Lan Nuoling intently and asked, "Will this period of peace really last?"
In this world, things that are divided for a long time will eventually unite, and things that are united for a long time will eventually divide. The peace we feel now is just a bond of connection. In a few decades, there will inevitably be a fight between Minglan Kingdom and Gan Kingdom.
Because human hearts are the most difficult to satisfy, greed will be infinitely magnified in times of peace, and will eventually lead to war.
"But at least we are peaceful now, and we will be peaceful for decades to come, right?" Lan Nuoling asked in return, "Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings, and the present is what matters most."
"Brother, you really don't have much time left. Don't you want to take a good rest?"
Seeing that Xu Tianze was completely unmoved, Lan Nuoling hardened her heart and said the last sentence directly: "Or, do you want to see innocent people go through what you went through?"
"What happens to one person is a disaster, what happens to ten people is nothing, but what about a hundred people? A thousand people? Ten thousand people? At that point, will you still think it's nothing?"
Xu Tianze was shocked into silence by Lan Nuoling's words. This was a question he had never thought about before, because in his eyes, these were unimportant things, or he would think about them occasionally, but they could always be ignored.
Now that Lan Noling had directly exposed his mistake, he suddenly fell silent, because he knew that what Lan Noling said would really happen.
During the most chaotic years in Gan Country, he saw countless women and teenagers being dragged into the depths of the alleys, beggars who allowed others to do whatever they wanted for a bite of steamed bun, and even old people who hanged themselves so as not to burden their families.
Maybe you won't care when you say it, and when you see it in a storybook, you will just sigh a few indifferently. Even if you hear someone else narrate it orally, you won't really care too much.
But when these facts are placed before your eyes, when you see them with your own eyes, the touch in your heart is the deepest and the most unforgettable.
That is why when he found out that he was being used, he was willing to wait until the country was unified again. For no other reason than that he hoped that those cruel things would not happen on the land of the country.
Even though he knew that even if the country was unified, such things would still happen in secret, it would at least be possible to reduce them, right?
"Sister, I'm not a soft-hearted person." Xu Tianze closed his eyes, and the tragic scene that could not be described in words still emerged in his mind.
"I know that my brother is not a soft-hearted person, and he has no intention of saving the world, but I know where his bottom line is." Lan Nuoling spoke in a gentle tone, with an inexplicable light flashing in his eyes.
Unfortunately, Xu Tianze, who still had his eyes closed, did not see it.
When Xu Tianze heard Lan Nuoling's words, he didn't know what to say for a moment. He could only ask himself over and over again in his heart what he really wanted now.
Seeing this, Lan Nuoling also began to close her eyes and rest. She knew that what Xu Tianze needed most at the moment was to think about what he wanted.
Now, it can be said that a hole has been directly torn in Xu Tianze's indestructible defense. I believe that when this hole becomes completely bigger, everything will have the best result.
Just as Lan Nuoling said just now, Xu Tianze himself was very clear about how painful and devastating everything he had experienced was.
In addition, Xu Tianze is a soft-hearted person after all, especially when it comes to innocent people who are implicated by him, this can be said to have reached the extreme.
If it were Xu Tianze's enemy, Xu Tianze might be very happy to let his enemy feel his pain, but he would not let the innocent people who were implicated by him.
"Mr. Yun, it's not that I want to stop you. It's just that my master has been staying in the room these days and doesn't want to see anyone." Xichen felt helpless as he stopped Yun Wuyou, who was filled with righteous indignation, in front of him.
"Why is he gone? Didn't he attend Jiang Lanyun and Li Yi's wedding half a month ago? Why is he gone now?" Yun Wuyou was a little dissatisfied.
In his opinion, either Xu Tianze didn't want to see him at all and was deliberately making excuses, or the servant in front of him had his own little thoughts and was deliberately putting on airs.
You know, at the beginning, he was stopped and thought Xichen wanted some benefits, so he signaled his close followers to give him a purse, but the man thought it was too little and refused to take it.
If this isn't looking down on him, then what is it? This is only happening in the Regent's Palace. Plus, this servant is Xu Tianze's close associate, otherwise Yun Wuyou would have kicked him out long ago. Who would still be wasting their breath here?
"But my master hasn't left the house since the wedding." Xichen smiled bitterly, rolling his eyes in his heart.
In other words, there are so many people around now that he cannot cause trouble for his master. Otherwise, he would go over immediately and give Yun Wuyou a good beating to see if he would still be so unreasonable.
"you······"
"What do you want from me?"
Yun Wuyou was about to say something when he heard a voice coming from inside. He raised his head and glanced past Xichen, then froze in place.
The last time he saw Xu Tianze was in early spring in front of the Yue Lao tree. It had only been a few months since they last saw each other, and Xu Tianze's condition was extremely poor.
Perhaps it cannot be said that he is in a bad condition, but he is extremely sloppy. The Xu Tianze in front of him has a messy mess of hair and his beard looks like he hasn't shaved for a long time.
If that face hadn't still been maintained, making it highly recognizable, he probably wouldn't have been able to recognize the person even if they were standing in front of him.
At this time, Yun Wuyou also knew that the servant in front of him was not lying, and Xu Tianze was really in a very bad condition at the moment.
"What's wrong with you?" Yun Wuyou asked cautiously after hesitating.
