I remembered that when we were in the cave, Yan Xiaoqing told me that he made a bet with himself, and the stakes were huge.
And this time, my bet is not small
He knows he can't afford to lose but still insists on gambling, not to prove anything, just to get an answer. If Xia Yan is really like Pei Yuan said, then he is not qualified to accept everything I give him.
All I want is an answer that will put my mind on the ground.
So, Xia Yan, you must not let me lose!
Pei Yuan took out the contract and asked me to sign my fingerprints in a serious manner. After finishing the fingerprints without hesitation, I wiped my hands and said, "Don't you need to do this? Do I look like a person who goes back on his word?"
"
"We can't say for sure. If the princess cheats on you in the future, Liuchi and I won't be able to do anything to you!"
"Actually, I can't help you even if I try to trick you now!" I couldn't help but remind you.
To say that I don't want to gamble anymore, even if Pei Yuan wants to beat me to death, he still has to weigh whether he has the ability to do so, but Liu Chi doesn't dare to beat me at all. Now he realizes that being a princess of the Witch Clan is not a bad thing.
Pei Yuan smiled softly: "That's what the princess reminded me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Pei Yuan suddenly took out the contract from his arms, took out the fire stick and lit it.
Do you want to burn the contract and ask me to write a new one?
The flames burned in Pei Yuan's hands, like a magic trick, and they couldn't burn out no matter how hard they burned. Yan Xitong walked out bored, saw Pei Yuan holding a ball of fire in his hand, and sneered: "What's wrong? You started to do magic?"
The firelight reflected in Pei Yuan's eyes, and a stream of fire suddenly jumped out of the firelight, forming the contents of the contract just now in mid-air.
I was stunned.
——I swear in the name of the princess of the Witch Clan, without any interference, if Xia Yan cannot tell the truth from the false within seven days, I, the princess, will forget him forever.
Pei Yuan walked up to me and said indifferently: "Princess, you have already sworn an oath. Even if you want to break the contract, there is nothing you can do."
"Ah? Why?"
"Because the witch clan's oath cannot be destroyed!" He pointed to the line of words in the air with a slightly proud tone.
My expression changed drastically: "You cheated me."
"If Xia Yan regards Liuchi as the real Princess Changting within seven days, after seven days, the name Xia Yan will no longer appear in your memory!"
I took a step back and said, "You are so insidious!"
"The main reason is to prevent you from going back on your word, princess!" Pei Yuan said boldly.
Pei Yuan suddenly waved his sleeves, and the golden fonts suspended in mid-air instantly turned into ashes and fell down.
And I was completely confused.
When he realized what was happening, Pei Yuan had already left. He did not stay at the palace, but went to the inn.
I stood in the yard for a long time in a daze. After I recovered a little, I looked at Yan Xitong, who had been standing with me stupidly: "Did you just see it?"
Yan Xitong nodded: "Yes! I saw it."
"You feel……"
Yan Xitong touched his chin seriously and interrupted me: "I think Pei Yuan's calligraphy is good!"
"..."
"I am very curious as to why it must be seven days, not eight days, or three days!"
Yes, why?
That night, Yan Xitong and I sat opposite each other with our own thoughts. He was thinking about the time issue, while I was thinking wildly.
After dawn, he went to court, but I still sat in my original position and continued to think wildly.
At this time, Pei Yuan came in swaggering, and I stared at him in surprise. What? Have all the servants in the palace been bribed by him? He walked back and forth as if he were walking in his own garden.
