Chapter 409 Everything is different

Xie Zhuoning was stunned. He didn't expect him to ask this.

She shook her head and said, "It doesn't hurt."

"You're lying." Xiao Jinxuan exposed her. "When you saw me at the birthday banquet for Madam Xie, you wanted to hit me to death with a brick. It's obvious that you hate me to death."

At that time he was still wondering why her hatred was so strong when he had no grudge against her.

Even though they expressed their feelings to each other later, he always felt that there was an invisible barrier between them.

It turned out that from the very beginning, she believed that she was the one who killed her, so when she saw herself, she couldn't control her hatred.

"Uh..." Xie Zhuoning shrank his neck in guilt, "I just mistakenly thought you killed me, how can you expect me to be nice to my enemy?"

Xiao Jinxuan narrowed his eyes slightly, his expression complicated, "Then why did you save me when you clearly had many opportunities to kill me?"

He was injured so badly in Fu'an Temple.

She didn't even need to do it herself. She could just throw him in a corner where no one cared about him and he wouldn't survive the next day.

Later, she even used all her tricks to trick Xiao Bicheng into giving her a flying-leafed lotus to heal his injuries.

Don't you regard him as your enemy and hate him to death? Why do you still do this?

Xie Zhuoning coughed softly, "Um... I'm not saying that. I love you so much that I can't help myself..."

"Lie."

"I'm telling the truth!"

"Really?"

"Of course, I also have a little selfish motive. I think it would be fun if I could repay the favor and play with the dignified King Xuan."

I'm afraid the latter sentence is her real purpose.

Xiao Jinxuan asked many questions and Xie Zhuoning also talked about many things.

She told him that she seldom had a good sleep in the past because as soon as she closed her eyes, her father and those innocent people who died would always appear in her dreams with a bloody look on their faces.

"Prince Yong is sinister and cruel, and Xiao Bicheng is jealous and suspicious. No matter which of them ascends the throne, it will be a disaster for the officials and people of Daye."

"I don't actually want to usurp the throne and sit on the highest position. I just want a wise ruler, I want the people to be able to live and work in peace and not be exploited, I want the generals to be able to fight in peace without being suspected, and I want a prosperous era with peace and tranquility."

Although she is a woman, she is also ambitious.

For the family and for the people.

So she was prepared from the moment she made the decision.

Even if I die a thousand times, I will have no regrets!

Xiao Jinxuan's Adam's apple twitched, and he couldn't tell what emotions were in his heart. They were chaotic and complicated, like a mixture of emotions. "Why didn't you tell me this earlier?"

With a sigh, Xie Zhuoning said, "I wanted to confess to you earlier, but I couldn't seem to find a suitable opportunity."

At first, she wanted to leave a way out for herself, so she hesitated and didn't say anything.

Afterwards, accidents happened one after another, leaving them both overwhelmed and unable to find a chance to talk.

Xiao Jinxuan reached out and gently held her in his arms, his eyelashes drooping, "It doesn't matter. Anyway, the things that happened in the last life will never happen again in this life."

Yes, Xie Zhuoning couldn't help thinking, everything is different from before.

In the previous life, his father was convicted of collusion with the enemy and betrayal of the country, and Prince Yong was also involved. He and Xiao Bicheng both wanted to take control of the Zhenbei Army.

Now that Prince Yong has fallen, he can no longer cause any trouble.

Moreover, after Emperor Zhaowen and Xiao Bicheng failed in their attempt to lure his father back to the capital with their marriage proposal, they dared not take any other action for fear of angering him and causing him to rebel, so they could only turn a blind eye for now.

But this is only temporary.

After Xiao Bicheng got rid of Prince Yong, who was a big worry for him, he thought that he had the armies of Nanyang and Xichuan in his hands. Once Emperor Zhaowen died and he ascended the throne, the first thing he would do would be to deal with his own father.

He would not allow anyone to sleep soundly beside his bed.

Therefore, what they had to do after returning to the capital was to depose Crown Prince Xiao Bicheng and prevent him from ascending the throne.

And she will personally send this beast to hell!

She didn't know when she fell asleep, but Xiao Jinxuan's embrace seemed to have a special magic that could make her feel at ease.

Xiao Jinxuan lowered his eyes and looked at her, his eyes dim, "Sleep well."

He couldn't imagine how hard her life was in her previous life.

In Xie's house, she was sucked dry by the eldest wife's family; she thought she had met her true love, but Liang Ke only cared about the dowry her parents left for her; when she was beaten half to death, she thought she had found salvation, but Xiao Bicheng only regarded her as a handy weapon and a useful shield.

But in this life, she is no longer struggling alone.

Because in the days ahead, even if there are abysses and seas of fire and swords ahead, he is willing to go there and be with her.

the other side.

Duke Xin led his army in a mighty manner and attacked the Green Forest Alliance, encountering no obstacles along the way.

He thought he had caught the opponent off guard and was secretly delighted that he had won the victory with the least cost.

But when they reached the top of the Outlaws without any obstruction, he finally realized that something was wrong.

There was no one on the top of the mountain!

If it weren't for those sentries in the houses, he would have doubted whether the Green Forest Alliance had ever existed!

After his attempt came to naught, he angrily led his men to find Yang Lie, "Where are those thieves from the Green Forest Alliance? Where did you take them?"

As soon as they met, without even saying hello, they were bombarded with questions. Yang Lie snorted coldly and said unhappily, "Since he is a thief, of course I will kill him."

Duke Xin asked sharply, "So many bandits, did you kill them all?"

Yang Lie retorted, "The Duke said that it is only natural for soldiers to suppress bandits. What's wrong with that? I can't kill those bandits?"

"What about the body?"

"He was pushed off the cliff and fed to the wild beasts. If you don't believe me, you can go look for it yourself under the Tiandang."

The poisonous miasma at the foot of the Green Forest Alliance mountain is enough to kill people. The abyss is shrouded in black fog all year round, and you can't see the bottom at all. Unless you don't want to live, you will go there to look for it.

"You!" Duke Xin was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, "The Crown Prince is still waiting to interrogate the culprit, and you killed them all. Let's see how you will explain it to your superiors!"

"You don't have to worry about that, Duke." Yang Lie clapped his hands and asked Wen Yan to bring up the tied-up culprits.

"He Wenjun and the three leaders of the Green Forest Alliance are all here, and they have all confessed. The confessions are here, and I think they are enough to explain to the Crown Prince."

Seeing how well prepared he was, Duke Xin couldn't find anything wrong for a moment.

Finally, he stiffened his neck and said, "The prince ordered me to take over the Xichuan Army, so these bandits should be handed over to me!"

He wants to review it again, and he believes that he will not be able to come up with anything else.

Yang Lie raised his hand and said casually, "Please do as you please."

Duke Kexin took the people back and interrogated them for a long time, then ran to Yang Lie angrily to settle the score, "What did you do to them? Why did they all become fools?"

Yang Lie blinked innocently, "I don't know, maybe he's been locked up for too long, and he's gone insane, right?"

Who would believe this reason?

Duke Xin was so angry that he immediately drew his sword and started fighting, "How dare you play tricks on me!"

But as soon as he approached, he was knocked back by Yang Lie with his bare hands, "Duke, how long have you not been on the battlefield? You still think you are still young. You have gained such a great achievement for nothing, so just be happy about it. If you come to provoke me again, I can defeat the Xichuan Army once, and I can defeat them the second time."

After saying this, he waved his hand and ordered, "Set out, return to Nanyang!"
