Chapter 335 We will definitely be able to go home, no one will be left behind
Just hear the stars falling.
She brushed past Wei Ying and went straight to the dormitory to rest.
Wei Ying held on to the railing tightly.
She knew it. She knew that Pei Lin had done many unscrupulous and dirty things behind her back.
However, it is really difficult to restore the country!
They have no one to rely on and no soldiers. If they don't act more ruthlessly, the Wei royal family will never get a share of the world!
Benevolence and righteousness are things that should only be considered after the army and horses are strong.
The wall lamp gradually burned out, and the darkness was like a substance, slowly swallowing the girl completely.
She gripped the hilt of the sword in silence.
The sword blade was pulled out about an inch, reflecting a terrifying cold light, illuminating a pair of slightly raised phoenix eyes.
She and her cousin are different after all.
She witnessed the fall of the dynasty and the misery of the Wei survivors who were enslaved and served as servants. She was born to kill Xie Zhe and restore the Wei Dynasty.
She will stick to her code of conduct until she sheds her last drop of blood for the Great Wei.
At dawn, the wind was gentle and pleasant.
The capital city was bustling again, but the red-light district where Hua Manlou lived had fallen into the silence of the day.
By dusk, Chen Yu had carefully prepared a large table of food, and then he knocked carefully on every door, calling everyone to get up and eat.
However, there were only a few people at the dinner table today.
Xie Xuchi, Xie Zan and Wei Ying are missing.
Xie Guanlan seemed to have anticipated this and ate with a blank expression.
Wen Xingluo had no taste for the food. The roasted lamb between his chopsticks had gone cold before he could even put it into his mouth.
As if unable to bear this depressing atmosphere, Xie Shian couldn't help but lose his temper and threw the dishes.
Xie Yanchen handed him another pair of clean bamboo chopsticks.
Xie Shian shook off his hand, slammed the table and stood up with red eyes, questioning Xie Guanlan: "How long do we have to hide?! Why can't we just kill Xie Zhe?! Why do we have to separate from our third brother?! We finally got together after all these years..."
The boy's throat felt dry, and he was afraid that he would cry accidentally, so he didn't continue.
Xie Guanlan said in a cold voice, "Second brother handed you the chopsticks, what's your attitude?"
Xie Yanchen picked up the bamboo chopsticks, wiped them clean with a handkerchief, and said with a gentle smile, "It's okay."
"I can't stand it anymore!" Xie Shian suddenly drew out his red-tasseled silver spear, "I'm going to kill Xie Zhe right now! As long as he's dead, Third Brother can go home!"
He had just taken two steps outside when Xie Guanlan's voice came faintly:
"Go ahead. The Imperial City has tens of thousands of guards. I wonder how you can fight your way in alone. Once your head is hung on the city wall to dry, I will personally collect your body."
Xie Shian stopped walking.
The young man gripped the bright silver spear tightly, veins popped out on his arms, and his eyes grew redder.
Of course he knew that he couldn't assassinate Xie Zhe alone.
But……
He feels bad!
Why should a man who has done so many evil things sit on the throne and enjoy all the glory and splendor, while their entire family must be separated forever?!
The boy didn't understand why his third brother followed Xie Xuchi away. He just felt that if he killed the culprit, maybe his third brother could go home.
He looked at Xie Guanlan and cried out in dismay, "Anyway, I don't want to stay here anymore! I'm going to find my third brother and bring him back!"
"He won't come back." Wen Xingluo raised her eyes, her rosy face overly calm. "Fourth brother only knows that he is your third brother, but has he forgotten that he is also the military advisor of the Eastern Palace? He has been with Xie Xuchi for so many years and personally supported Xie Xuchi to ascend to the throne of the crown prince. The two of them have been through life and death together, and their friendship has long been a life-and-death relationship. Now that Xie Xuchi is in trouble, he will never abandon him."
Through life and death, a life-long friendship...
Xie Shian had a stern face.
He doesn't like Xie Xuchi.
When he thought about how he grew up alone in Rongcheng, while his third brother, who used to dote on him the most, was by Xie Xuchi's side, giving him advice, he felt like his heart was being cut by a knife.
He suddenly vented his anger and overturned the food on the table with his bright silver spear, yelling, "I don't care what his relationship with Xie Xuchi is. Can they be closer than us brothers?! Big brother claims to be the guardian of the Zhenbei Palace, so are you going to watch him run away with Xie Xuchi?! I don't care, I want my whole family to be here, not one less!"
The boy is willful and spoiled.
The soup spilled all over the floor, making a mess.
Wen Xingluo stood up and shook the hem of her skirt that was stained with soup.
Xie Yanchen's white clothes were also stained, and he could only look at Xie Shian helplessly.
Xie Guanlan's brows lowered.
He stood up, snatched the bright silver spear before Xie Shian could react, and punched Xie Shian in the face again.
Xie Shian stumbled a few steps, covering his face in disbelief, and complained aggrievedly, "Brother, why did you hit me?!"
Before Xie Guanlan could speak, Xie Yanchen whispered, "This is my fault. If I had been more determined and not been bullied by the people in the capital, my third brother wouldn't have traveled all the way to the capital for me. Naturally, he wouldn't have had any contact with Xie Xuchi."
The room fell silent.
Xie Shian couldn't hide the guilt on his face, "Second brother, that's not what I meant..."
Xie Guanlan sneered, "You're the only one who wants a family reunion. Don't we all want that too? What have I done all these years for?! When I was seven, my second brother took my place as a hostage in the capital. When I was eight, my mother accidentally ate my dragon beard candy, and I could only watch helplessly as she died in my arms. I endured it all for so many years, working diligently from dawn to dusk, never daring to indulge in play, fearing I'd make a mistake. Don't I resent it?!"
Xie Shian lowered his head.
Tears rolled down his cheeks and he wiped them away with his hand.
"Didn't he hate his second brother for the humiliation he suffered? Didn't he hate his third brother for leaving home at a young age to serve his enemies? Didn't he hate his father for losing his wife in middle age and having his childhood love taken away from him?"
With every word Xie Guanlan spoke, Xie Shian's face turned paler.
After a long silence, Xie Guanlan said, "Xie Shian, be less willful."
Xie Shian wanted to stop crying.
But no matter how he wiped away, the tears seemed to never stop flowing.
He raised his face.
The second-generation rich kid who usually acted arrogantly and dominated Chengdu was crying like a tearful person.
He felt very aggrieved, "I miss my third brother."
Xie Guanlan and Xie Yanchen remained silent, with unspeakable pain in their eyes.
Wen Xingluo stepped forward and handed Xie Shian a clean handkerchief. "In two days, Xie Zhe will leave the city in person. If I'm not mistaken, the Crown Prince and Third Brother might choose that time to take action. Fourth Brother, can you hold on a little longer?"
Xie Shian didn't want his little sister to see him crying in such an awkward manner.
He tried to turn away awkwardly, but Wen Xingluo grabbed his wrist.
The girl narrowed her sparkling almond-shaped eyes and pointed at the scattered lanterns outside the window. "Fourth brother, even in the long night, there will still be bright lights on the road. The day will eventually dawn, and we will definitely be able to return home, and no one will be left behind."
"Ningning..." Xie Shian sobbed, suddenly picked up Wen Xingluo and turned around in the room several times.
Xie Yanchen looked at the two of them with a smile, then suddenly looked at Xie Guanlan when he remembered something.
Xie Guanlan's face was gloomy, and veins on his forehead were faintly throbbing.
Just as he was about to go forward and beat him up, Xie Yanchen stopped him in time and said with a smile, "Forget it, forget it..."
