The room is filled with mist, and the fragrance hits your face.

Hua Yuxi sat comfortably on the bedside, her skin showing the unique pink color after bathing, just like the morning glow.

"Sit anywhere." She took a comb to comb her wet hair and glanced at Lan Qiao with a smile, "Would you like some tea?"

Although she was allowed to sit wherever she pleased, the furnishings in her room were sparse and there was not even a stool, so she had to sit beside the bed with her.

"Isn't it cold? You're wearing so little." Lan Qiao took off his cloak as soon as he entered the door and covered Hua Yuxi's body, "Put it on, don't catch a cold again."

"Thank you for your concern, Sir." Hua Yuxi blinked her big, talkative eyes and said, "Young Master is here late at night. I wonder if I can help you?"

"Have you ever sacrificed innocent people for your own benefit before?" Lan Qiao asked confusedly, "Do you feel sad every time you do this?"

Hua Yuxi was stunned by his question. The alluring fantasy she had originally had because of Lan Qiao's visit was suddenly swept away. She bit her lip in grievance and said, "Are you questioning the slave family?"

"Alas, the way I spoke was wrong, and you misunderstood." Lan Qiao said with a bitter smile, "I'm very confused now."

"Would you like me to go out for a walk with you?" Hua Yuxi asked with concern, "Looking at the look on the young master's face, he must have encountered something particularly tangled."

Lan Qiao waved his hand and said, "I'm so sorry, you were about to go to bed."

"What did the young master say? The slave family stays with the young master to help him solve his problems." Hua Yuxi tightly wrapped the cloak that Lan Qiao put on her, gently opened the door and said, "What a beautiful moonlight, look at it.

Those willow branches swaying in the wind are called willow branches above the moon..."

She suddenly paused when she said this, her face turned red, she hurriedly smiled to cover it up, and skipped out of the door.

Lan Qiao followed her out and walked around the Moon Lake in the Orchid Garden.

Hua Yuxi didn't ask him what was bothering him, and simply pointed out some interesting things around him, such as which angle of the scenery resembled a painting, which insect made a strange noise, which stone's shape aroused people's imagination, etc.

I don’t know how many times I went around, but Lan Qiao asked again in a muffled voice: “You haven’t answered my question yet.”

At this time, compared to just now, Hua Yuxi was more prepared: "It is naturally inevitable that innocent people will be implicated."

Lan Qiao stopped suddenly, stared at Hua Yuxi and said, "Then who among them makes you most guilty or unable to let go?"

"Li Zhuer." Hua Yuxi said frankly without thinking too much, "In the final analysis, their family is guilty of harboring the treasure. They were involved because of the treasure. It is unjust for us to sneak into the underground palace to steal the treasure map, and then

Li Shunji also died at the hands of Zhang Zhongjie because of the Xixia cipher text, and finally he detonated Muyu Mountain and buried you under the mountain. Although these were not my original intentions, I can't escape the blame."

When Lan Qiao heard what she said, he suddenly felt ashamed when he thought that he was also involved in stealing the treasure map. He also remembered that on the night of the decisive battle between him and An Xiaohan, he saw Ling Yufei also appearing in the Goddess Tower, and couldn't help it.

The resident asked: "Ling Yu flew to the Goddess Tower that day so that you could treat Li Zhuer?"

Hua Yuxi nodded and said: "At that time, I escaped from the Goddess Tower alone and was chased by the Longhu Gang and Border Town Arrow. Fortunately, he arrived in time and saved my life. He was injured at the time, and I was afraid that he and Li

Zhu'er was discovered by the Erqihui's eyes and ears, and they suggested that he hide in Mr. Xu's medicine house in Jiangpu first, and wait for me to rescue my companions before looking for him."

"You have rescued your comrades, why don't you go?" For some reason, when Lan Qiao heard Hua Yuxi describe his experience with Ling Yufei, his heart fluctuated slightly, so that his tone of voice was a bit stiff.

Hua Yuxi laughed dumbly and said, "Because I promised your brother at the same time that I will be your little slave when things are done. Master, if you don't nod, I can't leave without permission."

Until now, she had not said a word to inquire about the reason for Lan Qiao's depression. She just passively answered his questions and waited quietly for him to talk.

Lan Qiao then asked: "Have you ever had any regrets for causing the suffering of innocent people?"

"You may not believe it, but in fact I am often troubled by this." Hua Yuxi said quietly, "When I was in Erqihui, I couldn't eat well, and I couldn't sleep well. Especially when I dreamed about it at midnight, I was always disturbed.

I woke up from a nightmare. Indeed, I have implicated too many people. In addition to Li Zhuer's family, I also deeply regret what happened to the little princess Zhu Qingxiao, and you, Young Master Lan... So now I am willing to let the young master control me, and I have something to do.

The mentality of atonement for the past is in it. During the two days I spent with the young master, although life was not peaceful, I felt much more at ease."

Lan Qiao sighed and said after a while: "Do you still remember the bowl of water shield soup I made for you when we were in Jinan?"

"Why don't you remember?" Huayu Xilan said thoughtfully, and she immediately guessed what Lan Qiao wanted to say, "It's just that the young master wanted to drug the slave family, but he regretted it halfway, and in the end he was sued by the slave family and framed by Tie Xuan."

"I was so confused at that time." Lan Qiao walked to the lake and sat down on a stone. "At that time, I thought you were the innocent person who was implicated. When I thought about the possibility of you being punished by Li Jinglong's military law, I thought

I can’t do it anymore.”

"Then you found out that the slave family was not innocent, did you regret it?" Hua Yuxi smiled playfully, and also sat on the beach, stretched out her feet and touched the water flowers and said, "However, the young master did not take action in the end, which means that the young master is an upright person.

Man, even though the slave family holds different positions, we are still grateful for this matter."

"At that time, I really thought you were a good woman." Lan Qiao said with a self-deprecating smile, "The plum tea you invited me to drink is still fresh in my memory."

Hua Yuxi smiled sweetly and said: "Young Master wants to drink, I can just cook it for you."

"It would be nice if time could stop then." Lan Qiao changed his position and lay down on the beach instead, letting the cool lake water wash over his body.

"Master, if you want to relax completely, I have a way."

"What method?"

"Young master, you can lie down on the lake and just move your feet up and down gently to prevent them from sinking. You can sway on the water like leaves, look at the stars and the bright moon, and imagine that you are lying in the clouds, or in the vastness.

A speck of dust in the universe, a mayfly in the sky and earth, a drop in the vast sea. It carries flying immortals to travel around, and holds the bright moon for eternity."

"Really useful?"

"When you magnify your mind to the infinite world, you will find that the little things that were originally entangled are not worth mentioning." Hua Yuxi's voice was as ethereal as a cloud, "It doesn't matter whether she is Miss Li or Miss Xu, it doesn't matter.
