Four hundred and seventieth eight chapters anger (a)
In the martial arts training room, no fire or candle is ever lit.
By now it was dark, and the room was dark.
Sheng Hong's face seemed to be shrouded in this darkness, and his voice was slightly lowered: "I have killed people and seen blood. When necessary, I can kill more ruthlessly than anyone else!"
"It's just that those people were just ordinary people. If they weren't implicated in this matter, they wouldn't have died of poisoning."
Having said this, Sheng Hong twitched his lips in a self-deprecating tone: "You will definitely think that I am a kindhearted woman. I am so worried about a few human lives."
Xie Mingxi's expression was equally dark and unclear, but her eyes were extremely bright, and her voice was light: "Those people were destined to end like this from the day they were bribed by the King of Hejian with a lot of money."
"Sheng Hong, you used to be a 'dead soldier', and you were ordered to kill people. It's just like a knife. Whether it hurts or not depends on the intention of the person holding the knife."
"Now, you don't need to see the blood yourself. You only need to pass the order and someone will do it. The number of people affected and the lives hurt will be far beyond your imagination."
"This is life as a prince, and it is also the status quo you have to face. You have to get used to such conspiracy and calculations, and such methods, even if you are not used to them."
"If you are merciful, those around you and those you care about will die."
…
How could he not understand this truth?
Last year during the spring hunting in Xishan, the people who died in vain due to the "assassination" were not just the dead soldiers. There were also the imperial guards who were executed in the rage of Emperor Jianwen.
He had no intention of killing, but he did not know how many people died because of him.
It is indeed too pretentious to sigh again and again at this time!
Sheng Hong took a deep breath and calmed down: "I understand everything you said. I just said a few words casually, don't take it to heart."
Xie Mingxi's eyes flashed and she didn't open her mouth again.
There was a wordless silence in the martial arts room.
No one is born cold-blooded. However, sometimes you really can't help yourself. If you don't plan on others, you will be plotted by others. If you want to protect yourself and gain a firm foothold, you have to take the initiative and defeat all enemies first.
She had lived like this for decades in her previous life.
And he comes from a different world, and the principles he adheres to are slightly different from hers.
In the past, when we were classmates in college, we had reservations about each other, but we couldn't tell it yet. Now we are an unmarried couple, and as we get closer and closer, we gradually get a glimpse of each other's true appearance...
He finally saw how good she was at scheming and manipulating people's minds.
"Sheng Hong, this is the real me."
Xie Mingxi's voice broke the silent stare: "I am neither gentle nor kind. In order to achieve my goal, I will use any means, I will kill with a borrowed knife, and I don't care about the blood of my men."
"Whether you accept it or not, I will never change myself."
The indifference in his tone was shocking.
Sheng Hong finally came to his senses and smiled helplessly: "Mingxi, don't be angry. When did I tell you to change? Just now I had a fit and just sighed a few words. As for the blood on my hands, I'm better than
You want more. Could it be that this will alienate you from me?"
Xie Mingxi chuckled: "You think too much. How could I be angry?"
Then, take a step and leave.
Sheng Hong: "..."
…
Sure enough, I was really angry!
Sheng Hong secretly smiled bitterly, wishing he could give himself a slap in the face for talking too much, and quickly caught up with him. Before he put his hand on Xie Mingxi's shoulder, the familiar voice of Chief Gu Shan could be heard outside the door: "It's getting so late, Your Highness the Seventh Prince
Why haven't you left yet?"
Oh, by the way, it’s long past tea time to talk alone tonight.
Sheng Hong made a move, and Xie Mingxi walked quickly instead of slow, and quickly walked to Chief Gu, smiling as usual: "Master, why are you here?"
Gu Shanchang didn't notice anything strange, and smiled casually: "I had nothing to do, so I came out for a walk, and I happened to come here. So I came over to take a look."
Looking across Xie Mingxi's sweaty forehead, Gu Shanchang urged softly: "Go back and take a shower and change clothes first."
After practicing martial arts for an hour every day, I am covered in sweat, and my clothes are already soaked with sweat.
Xie Mingxi smiled and hummed, took Gu Shanchang's hand, and left together.
Sheng Hong: "..."
Duke Wei, Zhou's bodyguards and others who had been waiting outside were all gathered around. Sheng Hong had no choice but to collect his thoughts and said with a smile as if nothing had happened: "Follow me back to the palace."
Eunuch Wei had only served Sheng Hong for a short period of time, and Wei Wei, as a man, was not attentive enough.
Only Xianghui noticed something strange.
When we parted every night, Sheng Hong looked reluctant to leave. Xie Mingxi seemed indifferent, but in fact she would stay a little longer and watch Sheng Hong leave.
Something is not quite right today!
There must be some quarrel between the two of them!
…
"Are you having trouble with the Seventh Prince?"
After walking for a while, Gu Shanchang suddenly said something.
Xie Mingxi was not willing to admit it, she smiled slightly and said: "It's nothing, how could master think so."
Master Gu Shanchang glanced at the duplicitous disciple and smiled slightly: "It's fine if you don't. I'm just asking casually."
It's their own business if the young couple gets angry and loses their temper. Xie Mingxi doesn't want to talk about it, so her master doesn't need to talk too much.
The spring day is getting warmer. After taking a bath, Xie Mingxi wore a thin pink spring dress, as fresh and beautiful as a dewy lotus. There was a slight smile on her lips, as if nothing had happened.
Gu Shanchang saw this and was secretly amused.
This disciple is good at everything, but his thoughts are too deep. He hides his emotions and anger and refuses to show them.
Just be angry when you are angry, why bother pretending to be calm?
Before going to bed, Chief Gu specially called Ruoyao and gave instructions: "Starting from tomorrow, let Xie Mingxi and Yin Xiaoxiao go to the martial arts training room at noon to practice martial arts with Mr. Lian."
Ruoyao was startled for a moment and looked at Gu Shanchang: "Miss, what do you mean?"
Chief Gu Shan said calmly: "His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince comes to Lianchi Academy every night. Although he is practicing martial arts, it is always inappropriate to meet them every day."
You didn't say anything before, so why is it suddenly "improper" now?
Ruoyao murmured secretly in her heart, but she didn't say much and nodded in agreement.
The next day, Xie Mingxi knew about it and had no objection. Yin Xiaoxiao, on the other hand, winked at Xie Mingxi. Xie Mingxi ignored him and went to the martial arts training room with Yin Xiaoxiao at noon.
Mr. Lian was not a talkative person either. He gave Xie Mingxi a meaningful look and then looked away.
In the evening of this day, His Highness the Seventh Prince, who had racked his brains all day long on how to make Xie Mingxi happy, couldn't wait to open the door of the martial arts room.
Then, I only saw the expressionless Master.
Mr. Lian said: "From today on, Xie Mingxi and Yin Xiaoxiao will practice martial arts at noon. You will be alone in the evening."
