Wishful Things

Chapter 308 Take root

Seeing his demeanor, Zhu Xiu felt a little tired inside.

What sin did he do to spread these newcomers who couldn't finish and couldn't take care of him.

And as expected of living in the same yard with Qin Wu, the degree of lack of wink can be seen.

"Stay far away, it's not appropriate to be close." However, the other party may not understand any euphemism, so he should directly explain the request.

Yun Liu's brows were so frowned that it could kill a fly.

It's not appropriate to follow far away!

Seeing that he opened his mouth as if to refute, Zhu Xiuruo pointedly looked at Xiao Qi who was not far away and looked up at the moon leisurely.

The meaning is obvious.

——Incomprehension is not enough, so you can always copy the answer?

Yun Liu's expression became complicated.

How can this be the same?

Wu Shisun is a man, so his servants naturally don't have to worry about their master's disadvantages!

But my home is a girl's home!

After understanding his eyes, Zhu Xiu, who has profound experience and has already seen through everything, chooses to remain silent - it is not certain who will suffer.

Seeing that Yun Liu didn't seem to give up easily, Zhu Xiu pulled out the big knife behind his back and wiped it with his sleeve.

Yun Liu: "...?"

In this situation tonight, Zhu Xiu has no chance to draw his sword. What is he wiping it for?

Quietly touching the dagger in his sleeve, realizing that the equipment gap between the two sides was too great, Yun Liu felt a lump in his chest.

After a while, watching the other party put away the sword again, Yun Liu thought to himself: This person is not from my orthodox Xu family, and he really has a different intention, and he must tell the general about it later!

The bright moon gradually rises, and the moonlight diffuses into the forest.

Under the moonlight, two figures walked side by side.

Looking at the shadows under the moon, Wu Chao silently dropped his hands that were originally behind his back to his side.

He originally moved unconsciously, but under such circumstances, the pair of shadows under his feet seemed to be walking hand in hand.

The young man was startled, and after looking thoughtfully for a while, he slightly raised his head to look at the bright moon above the forest.

Today is the thirteenth day, and the bright moon is still incomplete, but at this moment, he feels that there is no regret at all, and the missing corner has been filled by other things.

At this moment, his state of mind is very peaceful.

But not because of this month.

During this period of time in Ningyang, he has never been idle for a day, and he has noticed and doubted in the process of investigating some things. Although everything remains the same before and after, but after all, he is not an immortal without sadness and joy. What he has believed in since he was a child is completely shaken in an instant. It is impossible to say that his mood has not changed.

But all of this disappeared at this time.

He didn't even talk to her, and he didn't need her to say anything, just walking side by side like this, he felt that his heart was as stable as a big tree with roots.

At this moment, he realized that it would be impossible to move this root if it was stabbed down silently.

Hearing that he hadn't opened his mouth to speak, Xu Mingyi just walked quietly.

This kind of silence did not make the two of them feel uncomfortable at all, on the contrary, they both felt comfortable and joyful, the joy was silent and silent, like the moonlight flowing quietly.

Xu Mingyi could clearly sense that this reunion was different from the last time she went to Ningyang.

She had wanted to ask him about recent events these days - recent events that he had not mentioned in his letter.

But this situation made her reluctant to break it out loud.

She had never known before that she could be so delicate and patient, and even the silence now seemed meaningless—but because the person next to her was Wu Chao, the meaningless things became completely different.

To be exact, from the moment she was sure of her intentions, everything related to the name Wu Chao was destined to be picked up by her alone, hidden in a separate corner of her heart openly, and treated differently.

Until they left the forest, neither of them broke the tranquility.

Yun Liu, who followed not too far away, looked at Zhu Xiu and sneered silently.

He paid close attention to it along the way, the girl and Wu Shisun didn't say a single word—is this Zhu satisfied with embarrassing the girl to such an extent?

Outside the forest, the people brought by Xu Mingyi had already tied up the group of people including Zhan Yunjiao.

"Are you planning to go to the government with them in person?" Wu Chao asked Xu Mingyi.

Xu Mingyi nodded.

Since she intends to settle this matter in the open, she, as the person involved, will naturally have to come forward.

"In this way, I'm afraid it's easy to attract people with intentions to deliberately confuse the audience and obscure the process—" Wu Chao looked at Yun Liu who was beside Zhu Xiu while speaking.

Yun Liu frowned.

What does this look mean?

Xu Mingyi understood.

Wu Chao was worried that after she came out, there would be some ambiguity, so he wanted to leave a chance for others to make a fuss about her reputation, for example, she came here at night to see "Zhanyunzhu", and for example, this matter was related to flower pickers. If someone took the opportunity to spread rumors, it would be bad.

These have never been the things she cares about the most, but she doesn't want to be used for nothing if she doesn't have them.

"Wu Shisun's thoughts are not unreasonable." Xu Mingyi looked at Yun Liu apologetically, "Since that's the case, Uncle Lao Yun will have to do the next thing."

Yun Liu's eyes changed for a moment.

So... is it to let him appear in the government with this inhuman and ghost appearance?

Anyway, he is also a capable person under the general's command. Although his official position is not high, he still has it!

But facing the gazes, he could only desperately suppress the fluctuations in his voice, and said in the tone he used when facing military orders: "Your subordinate obeys."

At this time, the only thing he was lucky about was that it was night, and even if the government was temporarily raised to try the case, it would not disturb too many people.

"The gates of the city are probably closed at this time. I think it's too late to enter the city. Why don't you rest outside the city for one night and go directly to the government office tomorrow morning—" Wu Chao suggested.

"...?" Yun Liu looked at the young man who spoke twice and drove him into an increasingly desperate situation twice.

But what made people even more desperate was that the other party's proposals were practical and pertinent, and he couldn't refute them.

"Then let's go to Zhuangzi to rest for the night." Xu Mingyi said.

It would be better to go to the government during the day, after all, she has other plans——

But it is obviously unrealistic to bring such a group of people to lodge at this time. Fortunately, there are enough Zhuangzi outside the city, so just pick one that is close.

As she said that, she looked at Wu Chao: "If Wu Shisun doesn't dislike—"

Before she finished speaking, the boy nodded.

Do not dislike.

How could it be disgusting.

Xu Mingyi coughed lightly and said, "Then let's go."

Wu Chao and her got on the horse one after the other, and left here.

...

At the same moment, Mrs. Xu, the wife of Prince Dingnan, had just entered the city and was sitting in the carriage listening to her husband.

"Why did this child, A Yuan, disappear on the way?" Wu Jingming said "tsk", and said, "It is said that he sent his wife to Beijing in person, why did he leave the pick before he even entered the city?"

He deliberately bit down on the word "in person".

The son didn't personally send his wife into the city, but he came to pick him up in person. The lady should know about him by now, right?

But his wife's next reaction made him feel confused for a while.

Thank you for your monthly tickets, and thank you for your rewards.

(Cub’s condition is much better today, it is a herpetic respiratory tract infection, no fever today, and his spirit has improved, last night he couldn’t sleep well and kept saying, “Mom, I have small peas and snot in my throat, help me take it away”, distressed and funny)
