Ying Wuji said helplessly, "Isn't life like this? Even if you are a saint, you are still thinking about why the universe is so big, and the next thing you know, you have to worry about what to eat for lunch. The fake Second Saint is playing multiple games, and the real Second Saint is worried about government affairs every day. Ning'er...you chased me out, are you trying to say that I'm a scumbag?"
“A little bit!”
Zhao Ning sighed softly: "Although Miss Hua Chao's situation is indeed very difficult, you owe Cai Mei too much."
Ying Wuji nodded and said, "Wait a little longer. In July, I will find a way to break the demon seed in Mingdu. Then I will confess to them."
Zhao Ning asked faintly: "Then don't you have anything you want to say to me?"
Ying Wuji was stunned for a moment: "Ning'er..."
Zhao Ning smiled and waved his hand: "In fact, I can't ask too much of you, because the person you owe the least to is me, and I even owe you a lot.
I once thought that as long as I devoted my whole life to the Kingdom of Li, my life would be complete.
But I never thought that I would suddenly find myself craving for other things."
"Ning'er, I'm sorry..."
Ying Wuji held her hand and felt that the eldest wife's daughter's heart had fully awakened, but he seemed to still be treating her the same way as before.
It seems... so unfair.
Zhao Ning leaned lightly on his shoulder and said with a smile: "Father used to always scold me for being emotional. At that time, I was not convinced and thought it was just a matter of concept. But now I feel that I am indeed emotional, otherwise I would not say such things.
Actually, I just wanted to say.
No one is perfect, and it is impossible for everyone to be perfect.
The realm of a saint is indeed out of reach, you and I just need to do our best.
It's true that I have some complaints about you, but I still fully support you.
Just as you were terrified in the royal family before, but still devoted to us.
You did better than me.
So don't worry.
And don’t be burdened by some inevitable imperfections.”
"Um!"
Ying Wuji felt a little touched.
Zhao Ning kissed him gently, then changed back into the appearance of the prince, jumped off the carriage, turned around and said with a smile: "It's getting late, go back quickly, I'll take care of Caimei."
Ying Wuji smiled and said, "You should take a rest soon too."
After saying that.
Then he jumped off the carriage.
Slowly leave the palace.
Zhao Ning watched him leave and turned back to Chongli Palace.
Zhao Ji smiled and asked, "Have you conveyed my meaning?"
Zhao Ning nodded: "Yes! I conveyed it in the way of a son."
“This kid…”
Zhao Ji sighed softly. These days, the bet that Taoist Qingxu made with him had been echoing in his mind.
At that time, I felt that Taoist Qingxu looked down on me too much, so he gave me the foundation of Taishang Temple for nothing.
But think back.
He thought he was doing Ying Wuji a favor when he treated him before, but it was far less than the benefits Ying Wuji brought to the State of Li.
In this case, isn’t this “the narrow selfishness of the king”?
Just as the “Two Saints” mentioned by the elders of the Bai family are their expectations for Wuji Ning'er.
Isn’t the bet made by Taoist Qingxu also a spur to myself?
If there is no bet.
At the end of the Sword Immortal Conference, what choice will he make when he discovers that Wuji has such terrifying true strength?
It will be like now.
Or... kill him?
Zhao Ning chuckled and said, "Father, don't blame yourself. Your mind is far beyond that of an ordinary king!"
Zhao Ji waved his hand and said, "The so-called broad-mindedness is not just talk. Today, I can completely trust Wuji, not because I am willing to trust Wuji, but because I see greater hope in Wuji.
I hope that when the human race becomes the most powerful nation in the world, I will be included in the history books.
If it weren't for the rise of Li Tu, I wouldn't have seen this hope.
I may have lost the bet with Taoist Qingxu since the Sword Immortal Conference."
I talked too much today.
It made him feel short of breath.
I supported myself on the chair with both hands, and felt my body was extremely empty.
He glanced at the flickering candlelight on the copper cup and felt a little melancholy.
He took a deep breath and said, "This time, Dali will succeed. I will pass it on to Guli then!"
Zhao Ning looked solemn and bowed to him solemnly: "I obey your command!"
Zhao Ji nodded and waved his hand, saying, "Go back!"
"yes!"
Zhao Ning forgot about his father at a glance and only felt that he looked much older.
Before the feeling of heartache welled up in her eyes, she turned around and walked away quickly.
But I never thought about it.
Just returned to my residence.
Li Caimei came forward and said, "Your Highness! Wuji's mother has just arrived, and I think I should express my gratitude. The opera troupe is Wuji's hard work, and it is also a new thing that originated in Jiangcheng. I want to book a place and invite Wuji's mother to come and watch."
Zhao Ning: “…”
She thought of what Ying Wuji had just said.
Why is the universe so big?
What are you having for lunch today?
Seeing Li Caimei's slightly anxious expression, she felt that something might have gone wrong.
After being together for so long, she has always known that Li Caimei is quite intelligent.
This girl must have guessed something.
If I refuse, it will definitely arouse suspicion.
Zhao Ningzhi paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Of course! Don't worry, I will definitely arrange it within seven days."
Li Caimei's expression then relaxed a little and she hummed softly.
Zhao Ning's heart was pounding.
That's all I can do.
