Li Waner understood Cheng Dalei's thoughts, but it was precisely because the two parties knew each other so well that she realized that Cheng Dalei had his own way and there were some words that she could not say.
But she couldn't watch Li Xingzai die. Not to mention the deep love between brother and sister, the empire could no longer afford any trouble.
After a long silence, she spoke: "If Sixth Brother is really killed, the world will be in chaos. The war is finally over. The people of the empire can take a breath. If the war breaks out again, there will be another loss of life."
Speaking of this, Li Waner asked: "Are you really going to take action?"
"Actually..." Cheng Dalei sighed: "I haven't thought about it either."
Li Waner was startled, Cheng Dalei's words were beyond his expectation.
Cheng Dalei said: "In the past six months, I have not had the opportunity to take action. I have even been to the Ouchi Palace more than once. But in the end, I still did not take action."
Li Waner was shocked. The palace was heavily guarded. Especially after what happened, Li Xingzai stepped up his defense. But under such circumstances, Cheng Dalei sneaked into the palace several times without anyone noticing. In the dead of night, Li Xingzai made corrections.
During the memorial, would he have thought that there was a pair of eyes staring at him, wondering whether to take action?
Thinking about it, it really makes me shudder.
Cheng Dalei continued: "As you said, the empire cannot withstand any more setbacks. I cannot drag the entire world into chaos again because of personal grudges. But..."
He let out a long sigh: "Some debts cannot be repaid."
The most difficult thing in the world to repay is a debt of gratitude, and what's even more helpless is that that person is already dead. Cheng Dalei can't think of a way to repay the debt. There is only one way, which is to kill Li Xingzai and avenge Liu Facai.
This was not even for Liu Facai, but for Cheng Dalei himself. Liu Facai's last wish before his death was that Cheng Dalei could successfully return to seclusion. But there is no explanation for this matter, and Cheng Dalei will not have peace of mind for the rest of his life.
But today's empire really cannot live without Li Xingzai.
This is the helpless part of the matter.
Li Waner looked at Cheng Dalei and found that his expression was a little fragile. Although in the eyes of outsiders, he was lawless and it seemed that there was nothing he couldn't do. But he was just an ordinary person, and he also had unsolvable troubles.
Cheng Dalei was asking her for advice on how to collect the debt. But did Li Waner really have a way?
After thinking about it seriously, Li Waner said: "That chair is really scary. The former Sixth Brother was not such a person. Cheng Dalei, to be honest, are you really not interested in that chair?"
Cheng Dalei had never sat on that chair. He didn't know if he could resist the temptation. Therefore, he tried not to touch the chair.
"As you said, the person sitting on that chair is no longer the same person as before. Cats, dogs, Zhang San Li Si, whoever sits on it is the same. I didn't want to do it before, but now I don't dare."
Li Waner shook her head: "If I had known your intentions, why would Sixth Brother go to this point? The friendship that was lifeless back then is now each other's biggest enemy."
"There is a huge distance between people's hearts. It is impossible for him to completely trust me, and it is impossible for me to completely trust him. To reach this point is unexpected, but it is indeed reasonable."
The two fell silent again, the situation reached a point where it could not be alleviated, and no one had a way to break the situation.
Slowly, Li Waner raised her head, and Cheng Dalei found that her eyes were brighter than ever before.
"If there is no way, that's not necessarily true. I should have a way to get the best of both worlds."
Cheng Dalei looked at her confused, not understanding what she meant.
Li Waner took a few steps back, put some distance away from Cheng Dalei, smiled suddenly, suddenly pulled out the gold hairpin on her head, and stabbed it into her chest.
Cheng Dalei was startled, but now he was sitting on a chair, blocked by the table. Even if he had amazing abilities, he still had no time to do anything.
He stood up as quickly as possible, rushed to Li Waner, and grabbed her arm.
But seeing that Jin Chai had pierced her chest and blood was pouring out, Cheng Dalei broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly laid her down on the bed to check her injuries.
Li Waner's face turned pale, and she smiled and said: "The Li family owes you, so I will pay with the lives of the Li family. I have thought about it, and there is only one way. Don't blame me, and don't hate me. I actually don't want to
See you."
Cheng Dalei untied her shirt, revealing the soft jade on her chest, which was pierced by a gold hairpin and bleeding.
After all, Li Waner has the blood of the Li family in her body, and she has the consciousness to sacrifice for this empire. She has decided on this method a long time ago. If she didn't want to see Cheng Dalei for the last time, she would not wait until today. Use her life to return Liu's death.
Debt to make a fortune, of course, this matter must be a lifelong regret for Cheng Dalei.
But there is no way around this.
Her face became paler and she said in a weak voice: "I really want to see you again, but I have no chance. Maybe in the next life, maybe in the next life."
Cheng Dalei had always been livid, but at this moment he breathed a sigh of relief. He patted Li Waner's head and said, "Don't worry, you won't die, no vital parts were injured."
"Well……"
Li Waner was stunned. There was indeed blood coming from her chest, but after feeling it carefully, she was really not weak enough to die.
Cheng Dalei looked at her helplessly. Killing was not an easy task. It was difficult for ordinary people to kill a chicken, let alone a living human life. Li Waner thought about this plan over and over again, and it was not unreasonable. But she ignored one thing.
An important thing: I have no ability to kill.
When the chest was pricked and bleeding started, I felt that I was going to die, but in fact my heart was not hurt.
The two looked at each other and both felt that the situation was a bit awkward. At this moment, Li Waner realized that she was still wearing her clothes, which was equivalent to exposing her body to Cheng Dalei's eyes, and her whole face turned red instantly.
"Don't move, it will hurt a little."
Cheng Dalei pressed her shoulder and reached out to pull out the golden hairpin. The injury was indeed not serious and there was not much blood flowing out at the moment. Cheng Dalei simply bandaged her and told her to lie down and not move around.
Li Waner was so ashamed that she wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl in. She was really embarrassed this time. How could she still have the face to see others in the future?
Cheng Dalei looked into her eyes and shook his head helplessly.
"Your life can be exchanged for Liu Facai's life." Cheng Dalei said: "But I have paid off Liu Facai's debt, how can you repay what you owe me?"
"I can only pay it back in my next life." Li Waner muttered softly.
Cheng Dalei held her forehead and said, "You helped me remove a piece of my heart disease and filled in a bigger one for me."
"There is nothing we can do about it." Li Waner's voice was also weak.
Cheng Dalei was also afraid. Fortunately, nothing happened to Li Waner this time. If she really made a mistake, he was afraid that he would live with regrets and regrets in the next life.
