I'm Actually The Big Villain In The Book

Ugly.

When Wei Changtian hurried back to the palace, everything that happened here had also been settled.

"Sir."

Yang Liushi had been waiting outside the palace, and when she saw him, she immediately went up to him and said, "It's Lu Hongji. Half an hour ago, he led people to find Miss Xu's hiding place, intending to snatch her away."

"However, Li Zimu pretended to be Miss Xu at that time, and Lu Hongji couldn't tell the difference."

"Is it?"

As he continued walking towards the palace without stopping, Wei Changtian turned his head and asked, "What about after that?"

"After that, Lu Hongji took Li Zimu away."

"But before they sneaked out of the palace, Chu Xianping led someone to stop them."

In the last half of the sentence, Yang Liushi's tone was very light, and she kept observing Wei Changtian's expression when she said it.

However, the expected surprise did not appear on the latter's face, Wei Changtian just sighed lightly.

"Oh, I knew it. Let's go on."

"yes."

Yang Liushi nodded lightly: "Later, Chu Xianping rescued Li Zimu. Lu Hongji realized something was wrong and wanted to escape, but it was too late. The people brought by Chu Xianping trapped him with a formation."

"By the way, although I have never seen it with my own eyes, according to Li Zimu's description, I feel that the formation is somewhat similar to the one we saw Yan Huanwen perform on Bailing Mountain. I don't know if it is the same one."

"It does not matter."

Wei Changtian didn't care about such small details: "What about Lu Hongji? He's dead?"

"The slaves don't know, when the slaves came, there was no one in the place where the two sides fought."

Yang Liushi replied truthfully: "Just now, I only found out about this after asking Miss Xu and Li Zimu."

"Well, Chu Xianping is still in the palace now?"

Wei Changtian asked again: "Or have you already left?"

"Not gone, still in the palace."

Yang Liushi replied truthfully, and only then did she have time to ask about the situation outside the city: "Master, have you finished fighting outside the city?"

"It's over."

Wei Changtian looked up at the moon, which was no longer flickering with the moon-picking sword: "After you left, a big explosion happened inexplicably in the enemy's formation, and its power was much stronger than that of black powder."

"Then the enemy army fled."

"This"

Yang Liushi's eyes froze, and she asked in a daze, "What's going on?"

"What else could be going on"

Wei Changtian smiled wryly: "It must have been arranged by Chu Xianping, who else but him."

"."

After a word, the two of them did not speak for a while.

Xiumei frowned slightly, Yang Liushi was silent for a while before softly probing:

"Sir, then, in that case, Chu Xianping is really a counterfeit?"

"Who knows."

Wei Changtian shook his head: "Maybe, maybe this is still just his scheme."

"It doesn't matter, anyway, he is helping us anyway, let's talk about everything after I see him."

"Ok."

Yang Liushi nodded lightly when she heard the words, and it could be seen that she also felt that it would be better to wait for Wei Changtian and Chu Xianping to meet and chat before making a judgment.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help speeding up her pace a little, and the two quickly walked outside the Jinhua Hall.

From the window, you can see that the hall is brightly lit, but you can't hear any movement.

Stopping outside the palace gate, Wei Changtian and Yang Liushi exchanged glances, and were about to open the door and enter.

But at this moment, Yang Liushi suddenly remembered an unimportant matter.

"By the way, Mr. Tang, to save Li Zimu earlier, Tang Chen was seriously injured. Miss Xu rescued him with mica."

"Okay, I get it now."

Nodding his head indifferently, Wei Changtian obviously has no time to care about Tang Chen right now.

After answering, he looked back, took a light breath, and immediately pushed open the palace door.

The Jinhua Hall is brightly lit like daytime, with layers of veils falling from the sky, fragrant wind and jade mist, orchid buildings and carved beams, all the furnishings are considered luxurious.

It's just that everyone sitting or standing in the hall was very silent at this time, and their expressions didn't change until Wei Changtian and Yang Liushi opened the door.

"Have you finished fighting outside the city?"

The first person to greet her was Xu Suisui. She obviously wanted to say something else, but she couldn't say it in front of so many people.

"Well, it's over."

On the other side, Wei Changtian also simply replied, his eyes swept over Han Zhao, Li Zimu and others, and then...

"Young master."

Lowering his head to his cupped hands, Chu Xianping's demeanor and tone remained the same as before.

And Wei Changtian looked at him silently, without saying a word for a long time.

"."

The candles flickered, and there was a dead silence in the hall.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were on Wei Changtian and Chu Xianping, their expressions were very complicated.

It has been almost a month since Chu Xianping left for Qingzhou and now.

Some people only have a half-knowledge of what happened in this month, while others know the whole picture.

But no matter how much they know, everyone understands that the relationship between the two men in front of them can never go back to before.

"Let's talk alone."

Looking at Chu Xianping calmly, Wei Changtian only said this after a while.

Chu Xianping didn't say anything more, and also raised his cupped hands calmly.

"Yes, son."

"."

In this way, after more than ten breaths, the two walked around a screen one by one, and walked into the side hall under everyone's gaze.

The reaction of the two after meeting again can be said to be both normal and weird. Although everyone is very curious about what they will say, all they can do right now is wait.

You look at me, I look at you, there are worries, doubts, and apprehensions in the eyes.

In fact, the war outside the city has just ended, and there should be many things that need to be dealt with by these people.

However, everyone still tacitly chose to wait in the Jinhua Hall, waiting for the result between Wei Changtian and Chu Xianping.

In addition, there are some relationships that have now reached the time to make a decision.

"Master Soup"

Not long after Wei Changtian and Chu Xianping entered the side hall, Li Zimu, who had hesitated for a long time, suddenly walked up to Tang Chen and said softly:

"Let's go for a walk"

"."

As if he had a premonition, Tang Chen's expression was very calm at this time.

Although Xu Suisui healed his injury with the "healable" mica mushroom, his face was still pale and his voice was weak due to excessive blood loss.

Looking at Li Zimu, who lowered his head and didn't dare to look at him, a trace of pain flashed in Tang Chen's eyes, but it disappeared quickly.

"Okay, let's go."

"."

He stood up and walked out of Jinhua Hall together with Li Zimu.

In the cool night wind, there is a bit of late spring chill and a bit of the faint fragrance of crabapple.

The two walked down the long steps outside the hall side by side, and walked in the long corridor soaked in the night, neither of them spoke.

For Li Zimu, she might not know how to speak.

To Tang Chen, he might not know what to say.

Think about the past for a long time, the bright moon is ruthless, and the smoke cage is tonight.

On this night when the flowers and the moon meet and the war ends, the stars in the sky seem to be a little brighter than usual.

However, this starlight is extremely heavy for the two of them now.

Although sometimes silence is better than sound, a lot of things are actually self-evident in silence without saying anything.

But since the story has a beginning, it must have an end.

"Master Tang, I can't lie to myself anymore."

"Yes, I'm sorry"

"Sorry"
