Chapter 309 How Innocent Is She?
Yan Xingchuan suddenly felt a surge of despair and powerlessness in his heart, and he really didn't know what to do.
In his previous life, he wanted to wait until everything was settled, and then live a good life with her, and compensate her for what he owed her over the years. However, Lin Qingning was terminally ill, and he owed the Lin family too much, so he had no choice but to let her down and marry someone else.
In this life, he tried hard and hard, just hoping to stay by her side. It didn't matter if she had resentment in her heart and didn't believe that he didn't love her. He could wait and stay with her forever, even if he couldn't wait for her for a lifetime.
At least he can stay with her for the rest of her life, protect her and accompany her for the rest of her life.
He originally thought that he had rescued Lin Qingning, that Lin Qingning could live well, and that he had arranged everything for Lin Qingning, so he would have no other burdens. But unexpectedly, Chen Sui jumped out.
He just wants to live a good life with his wife, why is it so difficult?
"Okay, since you said so, I will also tell you what I want." Cui Si turned her head, looked out the window, and said,
"If the news gets out, if I marry, I will be unlucky for the rest of my life, and if I don't marry, I will be guilty for the rest of my life. Since Chen Sui was the one who caused all this, he should be the one to settle it."
"When that time comes, I will make Northern Yan admit that Chen Sui, who conspired with the King of Nanhuai, betrayed Northern Yan and deserves death. All Northern Yan soldiers who encounter him will be killed immediately without mercy. How do you do it?"
Yan Xingchuan's expression changed again: "Ah Si... is this really necessary? He..."
Cui Si asked him, "Do you want me to accept my fate and marry the King of Nanhuai? Or do you hope that I will understand your hardship and bear this eternal infamy for you?"
Yan Xingchuan's face turned pale, and he shook his head stiffly: "Of course not."
He said he would not let her suffer any injustice, and he could not agree to either of these two things.
Cui Si said, "I know you are a responsible and righteous person, someone who would rather sacrifice yourself than others. Of course, except for me, because you feel that as you and I are one, I should bear all this with you."
But now, she has separated herself from him and is no longer one. She cannot bear any grievances and will not take his responsibilities.
"Whether it's sacrificing me or Chen Sui, it's something you don't want to see. But you should know that it's hard to have both. You can only keep one. Since that's the case, I don't ask you to be partial, I only ask you to be fair. Whoever caused the trouble will bear the responsibility and the consequences."
At this point, Cui Si looked at Yan Xingchuan seriously: "You don't even have a sense of justice, so you choose to sacrifice me to protect him?"
Yan Xingchuan's face was completely pale, and his mouth was dry. "How could it be... Ah Si, it's not logical for me to abandon you to protect him."
Cui Si shook her head: "Actually, it's not that you can't. Perhaps letting me bear this stigma is the best choice. After all, it's just a stigma, and I won't die.
But you know that if you make this choice, you will never be able to face me again."
"And I won't let you appear in front of me anymore."
"No." Yan Xingchuan shook his head, "I won't do that."
"Then do you have any other choice?"
Are there any other options?
No.
Just as she said, he was reluctant to let her marry the King of Nanhuai and would not agree. The final result would be that Northern Yan would send troops to Nanhuai, and even if she won the war, she would have to bear the blame.
As for Shen Sui...it's impossible to kill him, and the punishment is just light, so he can escape unscathed.
She was the only one who suffered this injustice.
How innocent is she?
Yan Xingchuan clenched his fists, but his hands were shaking constantly.
"I promise you." Yan Xingchuan quickly made up his mind. "If the news spreads, I will inform all the officers and soldiers in the states of Northern Yan that Chen Sui has rebellious intentions and wants to alienate you and me and use the power of Nanhuai to seize the world. If the officers and soldiers of Northern Yan see him in the future, they will kill him."
Since it was Shen Sui who started this matter, then let him pay with his reputation, his future, and his life.
Since he took action, he should bear the consequences.
When Cui Si heard this, her expression finally relaxed a lot.
If Cui Jing could negotiate the matter, that would naturally be the best. She wanted to see if Shen Sui would be overjoyed when he married the old widow and would be willing to sacrifice himself for Beiyan.
If the negotiations fail and the news spreads, she has already properly handled the worst-case scenario.
No matter which one it was, he was reaping the consequences of his own actions.
Thinking of this, Cui Si still had the mood to persuade Yan Xingchuan: "You don't have to worry too much. After all, not many people know about it. As long as General Shen doesn't spread the news recklessly, then the military advisor and my third brother are rushing to Xiangzhou now, there is still room for maneuver."
Yan Xingchuan was stunned: "Yes, there is still room for maneuver."
Yes, I was almost led astray by her.
Now if Shangguan Tong and Cui Jing go there together, they will definitely be able to settle the matter.
That result is impossible.
After figuring this out, Yan Xingchuan regained some of his rationality and breathed a sigh of relief. He then said, "Don't worry. If Shen Sui wants to join forces with the King of Nanhuai to deal with Xiling, he must take them by surprise and attack them when they are unprepared. This will not be spread before they start attacking Xiling."
Cui Si suddenly smiled and said, "That is naturally the best outcome."
Her reputation would not be damaged, and it would naturally be the best outcome for General Shen, who came up with this "good idea", to marry the widow.
She only hopes that her third brother will work harder to send General Shen on his way, and wishes him a happy marriage and many children and grandchildren.
When Cui Si thought of this, she felt satisfied.
She picked up the round fan beside her, tilted her head slightly and asked him, "By the way, I moved into a new courtyard, and today is my housewarming celebration. Would you like to stay for dinner?"
Having achieved the desired result, she was naturally willing to treat him well and appease him to prevent him from going crazy.
It would be the greatest benefit to her and the world if he stayed alive and served as the King of Northern Yan.
Well, at least it's not a capital crime.
"Stay." Yan Xingchuan nodded without hesitation.
He couldn't wait to move in, so how could he refuse such a good thing?
But he remembered that she had suddenly moved, and couldn't help asking her, "Why did you suddenly change your residence? Isn't Piaomiao Mountain Residence good? There's everything there, and it's safer."
Cui Si said, "Piaomiao Mountain Residence is nice, but it's not your own place. I've been living here forever, and it's inappropriate for you to find another place to live."
"Why is it not your own place? Isn't mine yours too?" Yan Xingchuan frowned in disapproval.
Cui Si smiled and said, "Well, just think of it as me wanting to live in a place I bought with my own money, so I can feel more at ease. If you want to come and see me, it's the same."
