I am the villain in the book

Coming out of the magnificent palace, Wei Changtian tightened his clothes in the night breeze.

A crescent moon hung obliquely in the western sky, curved and shallow, like the eyebrows of a beautiful woman.

Looking at the crescent moon, Wei Changtian looked back at the closed palace door, and couldn't help but mutter to himself—

Damn it, doesn't Ning Yuke really have a masochistic tendency?

I had vaguely noticed this when I was treating the scars on her face before, but why does it seem that the "condition" is getting more and more serious now??

But the key is that she has painless constitution, so logically she shouldn't be able to feel the pleasure of "pain".

Huh?

Could it be that it is precisely because she can't feel physical pain that she is so obsessed with psychological "abuse"?

This...

The more Wei Changtian thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed, and the more helpless he felt.

If this guess is correct, then wasn't what I said just now depriving Ning Yuke of "happiness"????

Good fellow, thinking about it this way, she is also a person who is not easy to deal with.

Wait, why did I use "also".

Shaking his head, he stopped thinking about these messy things.

After standing there for a while, Wei Changtian stepped forward to leave.

However, just as he brushed past a palace maid, he suddenly stopped.

"Young Master Wei."

The palace maid gave a deep blessing and asked softly, "Do you have any instructions?"

"Well, hasn't this palace been named yet? I just thought of one."

Nodding, Wei Changtian said with a smile, "You go and tell His Majesty later, if she thinks it's good, then it can be used."

"The Young Master named the palace?"

The palace maid was a little surprised: "Then what is it called?"

"."

"Weiyang."

Wei Changtian paused slightly, and then said the name of a palace that had been used the most and existed for the longest time in the history of his previous life.

Without a doubt, the deep meaning of such a palace name is definitely not something that an ordinary palace maid can understand.

However, she could feel that this name... was very beautiful.

"Weiyang..."

"Weiyang Palace"

She repeated it several times blankly, but when she looked up again, she found that Wei Changtian had already walked away at some point.

Her heart was pounding like a deer, and the palace maid, who was quite pretty, blushed for a moment.

And the man who made her heart flutter didn't know that he had "captured" another innocent girl with just a few words.

Walking slowly on the way out of the palace, Wei Changtian only had one poem in his mind at this time.

This was what he suddenly thought of when he was looking at the moon just now.

It was also because of this poem that he named the palace under his feet "Weiyang".

In fact, Wang Changling's poem is completely describing the scenery, and the season it describes is also very different from today.

But at this moment, in Wei Changtian's view, it seems to have a deeper meaning.

After all.

That peach blossom will eventually become a thing of the past.

Although it will bloom again next year, it will no longer be the same one as before.

To be honest.

Wei Changtian has always thought that his attitude towards You Jia should be one of "it doesn't matter if I get it, so it doesn't matter if I lose it".

But it was not until this moment that he realized that the relationship between people may never be so "clear-cut".

Oh, well, let it be.

No matter what, we still have to look forward.

The end of some stories is the beginning of new stories.

From this point of view, those stories are actually just continuing in another way.

Weiyang.

Unfinished.

Not over.

"Brother Chu."

Walking out of "Weiyang Palace", Wei Changtian looked melancholy, and obviously had not recovered from the "sad" atmosphere just now.

However, as Chu Xianping, who was waiting by the carriage, quickly greeted him and whispered a piece of big news in his ear... all the sentimentality and melancholy disappeared in an instant. People who didn't know him would have thought he had mastered the Sichuan opera "face-changing" stunt.

The rapid change of emotions undoubtedly proves one thing—

"Sadness" that flows to the level of love between men and women is indeed an emotion that only people who are full and have nothing to do will produce.

"."

"What?!"

"So fast????"

Suddenly widening his eyes, Wei Changtian's expression was extremely surprised.

That's right.

Ning Yongnian had just entrusted Han Zhao with the important task of sending troops to conquer Shu Prefecture, and the latter, a core figure of the Tongzhou Association, immediately told Chu Xianping.

Yes, although this news came in a timely manner, and it was a great thing for me that Han Zhao was the commander of this battle.

But Wei Changtian still didn't expect Ning Yongnian's actions to be so fast, and it was 300,000 troops at once.

You must know that this was originally planned to support the 300,000 troops on the front line of Dafeng.

Is Dafeng no longer needed?

"Brother Chu..."

After slightly calming down, Wei Changtian asked a key question: "About how much time do we have left?"

"About a month."

Chu Xianping probably had already calculated it, so he quickly gave the answer: "General Han will take the Tiger Talisman of the Ministry of War to Yuanzhou to mobilize troops tomorrow morning. The preparation of 300,000 troops is estimated to take several days, but even if General Han intends to delay, it is impossible to delay for too long."

"If you add the time it takes to march from Yuanzhou to Shu Prefecture, it will not exceed a month and a half at most."

"A month..."

Wei Changtian frowned even tighter.

Although Liang Zhen has been stepping up recruitment since he returned from Yuanzhou, the entire Shu Prefecture army now only has 70,000 to 80,000 soldiers.

Moreover, most of the veterans among these 70,000 to 80,000 people died in Yuanzhou City, and at least 70% of the army are now recruits with no combat experience.

It is undoubtedly wishful thinking to want to directly confront 300,000 troops with such a team. Even with Han Zhao, the commander, as an internal response, it is difficult.

After all, this is not the traditional cold weapon era.

Due to the existence of the cultivation system, the average realm and number of the army have become the most critical factors in determining the outcome of the war, and the role of strategy and tactics has been greatly reduced.

To put it bluntly, even if Han Zhao risked his life to deliberately send the 300,000 people into his trap, he might not be able to win.

Therefore, the top priority now is very clear.

That is, he must create a new Shu army that can defeat 300,000 troops in a short period of one month, at least in a situation where he has all the advantages of time, location, and people.

It sounds difficult.

Doing it... is even more difficult.

But no matter how difficult it is, it must be done.

And thinking on the bright side, as long as this hurdle can be overcome, it will also be a huge blow to Ning Yongnian, and his subsequent goals will be easier to achieve.

"Hoo"

Taking a deep breath, Wei Changtian immediately gave up the idea of going back to warm the bed with Comrade Xiao Xu.

He and Chu Xianping got into the carriage, thought for a while, and then said to Zhang San, who was driving in front:

"Zhang San, go to the north of the city and find Yang Liushi."
