Chapter 248: Reluctant

But in today's situation, no one will know that I intended to kill you, everyone will just think it was an accident.

Di Chaoyang is still so cruel and leaves no room for mercy.

His hands were like a pair of cold, temperatureless iron pliers, tightly clamping Dijiang's shoulders, making it impossible for Dijiang to struggle free.

After all, Di Jiang is only thirteen years old this year. Even if he practices martial arts, he is no match for Di Chaoyang, who is already nineteen years old.

There is a gap of six years in between.

In addition, Di Chaoyang Gao Dijiang was much stronger, with muscles all over his body, and was very strong and powerful, so Dijiang could not struggle free.

Seeing this, Dijiang let out a resigned breath and looked at Dahuang at his feet.

Dahuang circled around Dijiang's knees, with his mouth open, drooling, a ferocious look on his face, trying to bite people.

Di Chaoyang said in his heart: "Bite Di Jiang, bite Di Jiang quickly, preferably to death."

Unexpectedly, Dahuang refused to bite Dijiang.

After circling around Di Jiang's knees for a long time, Da Huang finally saw the right opportunity, bit a corner of Di Chaoyang's robe, and then bit Di Chaoyang's butt hard.

Da Huang: I am a dog, but I am not a stupid dog. You want me to bite someone that my little master cherishes so much? You wish.

Dreaming about eating my shit.

In the end, even though Di Jiang was in front of Di Chaoyang and blocking him, he was not hurt at all.

However, Di Chaoyang, after being bitten several times by Da Huang, saw that Di Jiang, his meat shield, could not protect him, so he let go of Di Jiang with a curse and fled around the palace.

But it didn't work.

He can't escape.

There were so many bite marks on his butt that it was difficult for him to sit down.

He finally got rid of the dog and went to see a doctor.

But it’s so embarrassing and shameful to take off my pants.

He lay on the bed in discomfort, with his head covered with the quilt in shame, and then he let the imperial physician give him acupuncture, detoxify him, and clean his buttocks, no, the teeth marks.

Outside, the maids and servants who were cleaning the house were whispering to each other.

"This Southern Crown Prince is the most useless, incompetent, ridiculous, and weakest Crown Prince I have ever seen. How could he be bitten by a dog like that?"

"Is it because the dog is too fierce, or is it because he is too weak?"

"This guy is quite rude. Why would he get bitten by a dog for no reason? He must have provoked the dog. Why would he provoke a dog? And he's the prince? Pah."

"Pah, pah, pah!"

Qiu Shui Residence.

Just now when Di Chaoyang was about to give the Jiujiu wreath, Di Jiang didn't dare to look, for fear of seeing a painful result. He still picked a small flower from the roadside unconvinced, held it in his hand, hesitating, as if he was going to put it on someone.

It was not until Chu Yang told him that Jiu Jiu did not accept the flower garland and let the dog bite Di Chao Yang that Di Jiang's nervous heart finally relaxed.

Di Jiang glanced at Di Chaoyang who was being chased by Da Huang all over the palace, then came to Jiujiu holding the small flower.

He looked at Jiujiu's hair, reached out his hand, and helped Jiujiu pin the flower on her hair.

The lavender flowers make Jiujiu look fresh and refined.

Dijiang looked at it and smiled slightly, "Jiujiu doesn't actually dislike flowers, right?"

Jiujiu touched the purple flower on her temples and said, "Yes. Jiujiu just doesn't accept flowers from people she doesn't like."

"That person was not nice to Brother Dijiang, Jiujiu really disliked him."

Jiujiu said this, waving his little fist angrily.

"Jiujiu and Brother Dijiang are standing on the same line."

"Brother Dijiang's enemy is Jiujiu's enemy."

After hearing these words, Dijiang looked at Jiujiu and smiled. His smile was very bright and beautiful.

"Jiujiu, thank you for being so nice to me."

Dijiang's emotions were fluctuating greatly, with sparkling eyes. He didn't want Jiujiu to see it, so he looked up at the sky. When his nose was no longer sore and there were no tears in his eyes, he continued to look at Jiujiu.

"It's a pity that Brother Dijiang is leaving soon." Dijiang asked Jiujiu seriously, "Jiujiu, you won't forget Brother Dijiang, right?"

"Brother Dijiang is leaving?" Jiujiu was reluctant to let him go. She sniffed her sour nose and asked anxiously, "Can Brother Dijiang not leave?"

Dijiang: "This..."

If possible, Di Jiang did not want to leave. However, in order to meet better, he had to take this opportunity to leave.

Only in this way can he and Jiujiu have a future.

Otherwise, he and she will never be of equal status, he will never be truly qualified to have her stand by his side, he can only look up at his own sun but will never be able to own it.

Dijiang sighed with regret, held Jiujiu's shoulders seriously, and reminded Jiujiu: "Jiujiu, after Brother Dijiang leaves, you must continue to be self-reliant, study hard, learn medicine well, and practice martial arts well."

"Don't believe those sour Confucian sayings that women should obey their fathers before marriage, their husbands after marriage, and their sons after their husbands die. The world is ever-changing, and the only person you can rely on is yourself."

"You must be self-reliant. Only in this way can you have the power to choose in your life and not have to rely on anyone. You will not be controlled by anyone."

“You can always live the life you want.”

“You’re always yourself.”

"And we...will definitely meet again."

"By then, Brother Dijiang will definitely be the best version of himself."

"Brother Dijiang..." Jiujiu burst into tears in pain. She reached out to wipe her tears, but because she wiped too hard, her eye circles turned red.

Seeing this, Di Jiang couldn't bear to look at Jiujiu any longer. He turned around, asked Chuyang to give the date paste cake to Nanny Gui and the others, and then turned around and was about to leave.

Jiujiu muttered in his heart, [Why is it now? ]

[In the book, Brother Dijiang left Western Chu and returned to the Southern Kingdom when he was ninety years old.]

[Jiujiu is only seven years old now! ]

【Has everything changed?】

Jiujiu was puzzled but reluctant.

She sincerely hoped that Brother Dijiang would leave when she was ten years old and stay with her for a few more years.

Over the years, she had gotten used to Brother Dijiang bringing her breakfast every day, and to Brother Dijiang waiting for her under the tree in the upper study, talking to her, catching butterflies with her, playing with her, practicing calligraphy with her, and making date paste cakes for her.

She has many brothers, all of them are her biological brothers. However, none of them accompany her, love her, and protect her as attentively as brother Dijiang.

Brother Dijiang was the first one.

Brother Dijiang made her feel dependent on him.

Unfortunately, Brother Dijiang is leaving.

From now on she will be alone.

Jiujiu is deeply saddened.

After leaving Qiu Shui Ju, Di Jiang came to the imperial study.

Today, Emperor Zhaoning will tell him the results of his considerations on the previous matter.

Now that the huge debt owed by the Southern Kingdom to the Western Chu has been paid off and Emperor Zhaoning has released Di Chaoyang, there is really no need to keep him any longer. It is not appropriate in terms of both emotion and logic. He can leave.

Dijiang himself knew this.

At this moment, he came here just to listen to an answer and go through the motions.

"You're here." Emperor Zhaoning put down the memorial in his hand, pinched his aching brows, and looked at Dijiang, "I can tell you the result of my consideration now."

ps: Happy New Year to everyone!

I wish you all more happiness, less sorrow, prosperity, beauty, and love in the new year...
