Chapter 320 Wei Gaoyang, now that we have settled this matter, how about we get married?
"Ningning is in your hands. I have no need to lie to you." Wei Si replied.
Xie Zhe chuckled and reached out to touch her face. "When I obtain the treasures of the previous dynasty and suppress the rebellions, Si Si and I will be a loving couple in the palace. When that happens, I will make An Ning a princess and help her find a top-notch prince consort."
Wei Si remained silent, "Your Majesty, please consider whether you can survive this day."
Xie Zhe glanced outside the hall.
A master wearing a dark purple, narrow-sleeved outfit came in from outside the hall and whispered a few words respectfully to Xie Zhe.
After hearing this, Xie Zhe sneered.
He took Wei Si's hand and said, "I am his father, and he can't get out of my Five Fingers Mountain. Let's go, I will take Si Si to see what's going on outside."
At this time, the two armies were fighting on the white marble square, and the flashing of swords and the shadow of fighting shook the sky.
Xie Xuchi was wearing silver-white armor and riding on a horse. The two swords in his hands swung out, leaving afterimages. Blood dyed half of his armor red, and even his handsome cheeks were splashed with blood stains like peach blossoms.
He killed more than a dozen guards in succession, staring intently at the direction of the Golden Palace, and roared, "Kill!"
The army poured into the square like a tide, and actually formed a confrontation with Xie Zhe's guards.
Xie Zan climbed up the palace tower and looked down from above.
Wei Ying stood beside him, holding a sword. "What are Xie Xuchi's chances of winning today?"
Xie Zan stared at the silver-white horse and did not answer.
"It seems to me..." Wei Ying said in a very low voice, "You're not genuinely helping him, but deliberately stirring up trouble in the capital. I heard that Xie Guanlan has established a separatist regime in the southwest and has now united with several surrounding major counties and is on his way to the capital. The more chaos in the capital, the better it is for him. Xie Zan, you're harming Xie Xuchi, who considers you a brother, for the sake of your family. How despicable."
Xie Zan sneered, "It's not the first day I've been mean. Is it only now that Yingying knows?"
He reached out and pinched Wei Ying's chin, his eyes fixed on her lips. "I can be even more despicable now. Do you want to try?"
"open!"
Wei Ying was annoyed.
Xie Zan released his hand, his gaze still fixed on her face, a faint smile playing on his thin lips. "From what I know, Pei Lin was quicker than my elder brother. Before Ji Yu's death, he used the lives of the hostages to send people to lobby the princes. Under the banner of anti-Zhou and restoration of Wei, they have begun to gather forces. Wei Ying, do you want to be the empress?"
"Isn't it possible?" Wei Ying raised her fair chin proudly, "Xie Zan, if I were to become emperor, I would kill you first."
Xie Zan raised an eyebrow, "Yingying, you are so cruel. Am I not worthy of being your imperial husband? Haven't you experienced it before? I am very good at serving you in bed."
Wei Ying was furious and pulled the sword out two inches. "Shut up! Don't force me to kill you!"
Xie Zan just smiled.
He looked back at the battlefield and suddenly took the bow and arrow from his servant.
From a distance, he shot an arrow to Xie Xuchi's right.
The guard who wanted to launch a sneak attack on Xie Xuchi was suddenly shot in the chest and fell to the ground.
Xie Zan looked at the blood oozing from his chest, at Xie Xuchi fighting fiercely, at the young warriors dying like blood-red flowers, and suddenly said, "Wei Gaoyang, now that this is over, how about we get married?"
The wind blowing through the palace brought with it the summer heat and the bloody smell of the battlefield.
Xie Zan's large sleeves of feather-black gauze fluttered rapidly, revealing the rich and cool fragrance of pine and cypress. He stood there quietly, not looking at Wei Ying, like a cypress standing on the edge of a cliff, dangerous yet tenacious.
Wei Ying stared at his beautiful and sinister profile.
Her name was Wei Ying, a name given to her by the old minister who adopted her when she was a child. It meant that the light of fireflies would eventually turn into the brilliant sun, illuminating a new prosperous era.
But after meeting Xie Zan, he named her Wei Gaoyang.
He said she was never some faint firefly.
He said that she didn't need to show weakness or transform herself, she was already good, she was a shining sun.
She said she disliked the name, but secretly, she wrote this name carefully on the title pages of all her books.
In fact, they had a hard time for both of them during the first two years that they served Xie Zan.
At that time, the prince's temper was not as stable as it is now. He was moody and always suspected that Xie Zan was a spy sent by the Zhenbei Palace. He was always testing him in every way, fearing that he would betray him.
The people in power in the palace were also very unfriendly to the remnants of the Wei Dynasty. Like other slaves, she had to have her master's name branded on her body when she reached a certain age.
But she didn't want to be branded with the names of Xie Zhe or Xie Xuchi.
Because she hated them.
So Xie Zan begged Xie Xuchi to make an exception and allow her to be his slave only.
From then on, there was a character "Zan" on her arm.
Wei Ying subconsciously stroked her arm.
That night, her arms hurt and her heart ached.
She cried so hard and refused to sleep. She sneaked into Xie Zan's bedroom in the middle of the night and bit his shoulders desperately, venting her pain like a madman.
Xie Zan seemed extremely impatient and casually threw the golden Buddha amulet on his chest to her. "If you are unhappy, you can also carve a word on me."
She wanted to say, how can it be the same?
How can the imprint on the skin and the inscription on the amulet be the same?
But when she saw the piece of flesh on his shoulder that she had bitten off alive, she felt guilty and said nothing.
She held the golden Buddha amulet in her hand and carved the following words deeply on the back with a knife:
——Xie Zan is Wei Gaoyang’s dog.
She returned the amulet to Xie Zan and told him not to take it off for the rest of his life.
The young man seemed extremely exhausted, and it was unclear whether he had listened to her or not. He yawned and fell asleep without even treating his wound.
In the following years, he really never took it off...
She was lost in thought when Xie Zan suddenly glanced at her. "Wei Gaoyang, I'm asking to marry you, and you're just standing there saying nothing. I'm really embarrassed. Actually, I'm quite qualified. Even if the Wei Kingdom hadn't been destroyed, even if you were still a princess, with my background, Princess Shang would still be a good match, right?"
Wei Ying rolled her eyes and suddenly asked, "In fact, Jiangnan doesn't have those 50,000 old subordinates, right?"
Xie Zan made a "tsk" sound.
"That New Year's Eve, the masked man in black who came to see me on behalf of my old Jiangnan subordinates and brought me a basket of oranges was you, right?"
Xie Zan didn't comment, but asked slowly, "What about the marriage?"
