After hearing what Hao Yunlai said in a low voice, Xie Tie's smile gradually solidified on his face, and his expression cooled down. What is the thing she resents the most in her life? Apart from her unscrupulous family, I'm afraid.

This is the royal family of Daqi.

Everything about her started in the royal family. Now the person she regards as her brother is actually the heir of that incompetent person in a high position. This is ironic!

…

It was rainy in the south. In the afternoon, as a bolt of lightning split the sky, it started to rain heavily in the south.

When Xie Chuai came to bring lunch to Xie Tie, she had already climbed up and was sitting cross-legged on the bed, listening to the sound of rain falling outside, and quietly looking at the chess game that had been placed opposite.

"Sister, let's eat first and then eat again!" Xie Chuicui looked at her and said.

"I'm not hungry yet."

Xie Tie shook his head with his head lowered and pointed at the white piece opposite him: "Look, I played half the game by myself. The white piece lost half the piece, and the black piece was about to lose half the piece." As she said this, she dropped the white piece in her hand.

, surrounded a black stone: "Okay, now on the chessboard, both black and white stones are tied. Ah Chui, you can hold the remaining white stone."

Seeing her serious eyes, a flash of panic flashed through Xie Tie's heart: "Sister..."

"Come and sit down." Xie Tie interrupted what he wanted to say. Xie Tie gave her a stern look, sat down opposite her obediently, observed the situation on the chessboard, and gently picked up a white piece.

Xie Tie took one look and dropped a ball in front of him without hesitation. Xie Chui hesitated for a moment and chose to attack him.

"Wu Zhui knows, right?"

Xie Chuai's movements were slightly stiff and he nodded: "Not long after you rescued me, he guessed it."

No wonder he was so eager to take action. It turns out he already had a backer. That's all. The old man said when he was alive that this great empire would either collapse or rely on the young man in front of him. Now that he has the ability, no matter what the means, he can do it himself.

It should be gratifying.

I only hope that he can really bring back a prosperous age to this world.

Xie Tie stared at the chessboard in silence for a moment, then quietly ate his three pieces, and said as if chatting: "In the past two years, successive party members have been gradually removed, and many evidences of corrupt officials have also been presented to the court.

Now there are only a few who are still resisting. And you are still here, but because Feiyun Village is your original goal?"

"Yes!" He did not deny it.

It was true that he was chased by his successor back then, and he had no purpose of escaping to Yezhou, but he had never regretted meeting her for this purpose, so even if there was a faster shortcut, he would rather take the time and complexity to stay.

Down.

"Actually, it's okay for you to lie to me."

"But I don't want to lie to Sister anymore." He no longer wanted to. He wanted to stand by her side openly and honestly as someone other than Xie Chui.

Seeing him eating five of his own pieces in a row, Xie Tie only stopped one of the pieces he had abandoned in the corner, looked up at him, and asked with a smile: "He helped you so wholeheartedly, what did you promise him?"

"High official."

He promised Wu Zhui, a high-ranking official, a generous salary, and promised him that he would rehabilitate the Wu family in the future and restore the Wu family to its former glory.

"High official? Well, that's good. With his talents, he will definitely become a pillar of the country in the future." Looking at the defeated situation, she dropped the sunspot in her hand and said seriously: "You will have no regrets.

I lost. From now on... I take back the name Xie Chui."

"Sister..." Xie Chui, no, it must be Daqi Crown Prince Liu Fan who couldn't bear it and looked at her hesitantly.

"If you lose, you lose. I am willing to admit defeat." Xie Tie stood up, got off the bed with his bare feet, and knelt down to him. He wanted to stop her, but his hand stopped in mid-air when she kowtowed.

"General Xie Tie, I pay my respects to His Highness the Crown Prince."

After this bow, he will be the king and she will be the minister or bandit from now on.

Outside the door, the heavy rain pounded on the eaves, confusing people's hearts and washing away the past. And Zhang Shiqiu stood under the eaves with his hands behind his back, staring at the rain curtain for a long time,

Then he sighed softly and left in the rain.

Whether the encounter in this world is accidental or deliberate, who can tell clearly!

It rains a lot in the south. After several heavy rains, a rainbow of seven colors was set up on the top of the mountain in the distance. It was as beautiful as the colorful sleeves of a fairy, dancing in an arc in mid-air.

On the day when Lang Yue wrote a peace letter and submitted it to Chang'an, Xie Tie took the brothers from Feiyun Village to and from home. This time, he also stole half a day's leisure and left behind military affairs.

Zhang Shiqiu, who ignored his black-hearted father.

On the day he left, Xie Tie quietly went to meet someone.

For example, on the mountain road outside Yezhou City, she was riding on Xiaodai's back, watching from a distance the young general wearing a black armor and riding a horse, smiling as before.

The young general pulled his horse to a stop next to her, looked at her carefully for a while, frowned and said, "She has lost a lot of weight."

"No way." She smiled coquettishly at him, held her face and said with a smile: "Zhang Shiqiu has been saying that I eat too much all day long, and I have gained weight just thinking about it!"

Hearing this, the young general's mouth curled up almost invisible, he sighed, and said seriously: "I already know about that boy calling you sister. Xiaotie, if possible, I hope you stay away from him. Emperor

There are so many weird things happening in the city, and that city is too deep and too dirty, not suitable for you. But you are not young anymore, so if you have to choose, Zhang Shiqiu is good, at least... he can put everything aside for you."

Although those members of the Zhang family were not good people, he believed that if Xie Tie chose Zhang Shiqiu, he would be able to protect her and would never be as heartless and unjust as that old man Zhang Jingya.

Xie Tie lowered his head and smiled. She didn't know what he was talking about! But now, she was involved. She wanted to retreat, so how could the people in that deep city let her retreat?

So if she doesn't retreat, why not go forward to meet her?

The young general, Xie Tie's eldest brother, and the eldest son of Feiyun Village who had died of illness, Bu Qingfeng, looked at her at the moment, smiled, pulled a package from his horse and handed it to her: "All the decisions you make, no matter what

Good or bad, big brother will stand behind you. Go ahead! If you make a decision, this is your dowry."

Xie Tie was slightly startled and could understand the contents of the package without looking at it.

"Brother, if I make a choice, I will bring him to see you next year when the flowers are blooming in the southern border."

"good!"

That year, the brother and sister said goodbye with a smile. No one would have thought that that farewell would become an eternal farewell. And Xie Tie was not able to put on the wedding dress that her eldest brother had prepared for her after all. Those words of decision were finally

Couldn't tell.

Zhang Shiqiu and her were destined to have a fate but not each other, and they were destined to meet by mistake in the fleeting years.

On that day, when he returned to the foot of Feiyunzhai Mountain, Zhang Shiqiu didn't want to see the emperor, so he went elsewhere. He originally wanted to wait until the emperor left before going up the mountain, so he went to a nearby farmhouse to find some wine to drink, but he didn't expect to drink it.
