I'm the villain in the book

Chapter 371 Gears that start to turn
In the fifteenth year of Tianji, July [-]th.

Three days have passed since Wei Changtian went to see Li Qi for the last time.

There are still three days left until July [-]th, Ghost Festival.

Wei Changtian has been paying attention to the movement in the sky prison all the time for the past three days, so he naturally knows that Li Qi has not yet met Yu Pingjun.

What the hell, changed your mind again?
Or did he have other plans?
Regarding Li Qi's behavior of "returning his promise", Wei Changtian was very upset, but he was too lazy to urge the former.

As I said before, this shit doesn't have much to do with me. Since the "participant" doesn't care, let's do whatever I want.

The emperor was not in a hurry for the eunuch, and he was not an eunuch, so of course he would not worry so much for Li Qi.

Anyway, the agreed July [-]th will be here soon.

As long as there is nothing wrong with Fengyuan City, he will immediately let Li Qi fulfill his previous promise, and then return to Shuzhou.

As for Li Wutong, marrying a princess of a country is not a trivial matter, there is a lot of attention and preparation up and down, and it may even affect Fengning's diplomatic relations in Dali.

However, the two countries are at war right now, and there is another "shocking scandal" like Yu Pingjun in Dafeng. It is definitely not suitable to "marry a princess" in a short time, so I can only put it aside for the time being and wait until the time is right.

Of course, Wei Changtian had already discussed this matter with Li Wutong, and he also asked the latter if he should follow him back to Shuzhou during this time.

Li Wutong wanted to follow Wei Changtian from the bottom of his heart, but in the end he chose to stay in Fengyuan.

Maybe she knows that this is also the time when Li Qi needs her most.

"."

"Young master, I'm waiting for you to come back and marry me."

The candle flickered slightly, and the two sat opposite each other in the bedroom.

Although it was still four or five days before Wei Changtian left, Li Wutong had to "remind" him almost every day, as if he was very afraid that the former would forget about it.

"Princess, don't worry, when Da Feng Daning stops fighting, I will come back to marry you."

Nodding his head, Wei Changtian was not impatient with Li Wutong's "worries", but just sighed with some meaning.

"quickly."

"."

soon?

Li Wutong didn't know why Wei Changtian was so sure that the war between the two countries would end soon, so he just took it as a good wish.

She also nodded with a smile, as if she was also expecting this to pass quickly.

There will be no more wars, and the world will be peaceful.

At that time, I will be able to marry Wei Changtian in a glorious manner, and from now on I will no longer be the princess of Dafeng, but the daughter-in-law of the Wei family.

I can go to Shuzhou by myself, see the beautiful scenery, local customs and customs there, and meet the girl Liu Shi who is also a demon in Wei Changtian's mouth, and live a peaceful life.

If Wei Changtian didn't dislike it, he would have many, many children.

Both boys and girls are good, I will not hide it from them, I will tell them that demons are the same as humans, there is no difference except that they live longer.
"Pfft~"

Thinking of the words Wei Changtian used to comfort him again, Li Wutong couldn't help laughing.

Looking at the puzzled man on the opposite side, she didn't explain why she was smiling, but slowly moved closer, and gently rested her head on Wei Changtian's chest.

The moonlight was just right outside the window, and the birds were singing crisply.

"Princess, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I just suddenly felt that you are so kind to me."

Daning, Yuanzhou, and Fengxian.

"Da da da, da da da"

The dense sound of horseshoes from far to near pierces the tranquility of the night.

As a small city where more than [-] Daning soldiers were stationed, it has been so peaceful since the Dafeng army retreated to Yuanzhou City, and it has been a whole month now.

For a month, the soldiers had no battles to fight, and they were not allowed to advance or retreat. Naturally, there would be "militants" who were unwilling to do so. The memorials for war would be placed on Ning Yongnian's desk every few days, and then they would be sent to Ning Yongnian again. The latter rejected them one by one.

The order of the emperor had to be obeyed.

Since the emperor forbade them to fight, the soldiers stationed in Feng County could only go up to the city wall every day, staring at the empty wasteland in a daze, not knowing what they were expecting.

The flames of war that came to an abrupt end, the waiting for unknown reasons.

They thought that such days would last for a long time.

But as Ning Yongnian's holy driver quietly arrived in Feng County in the middle of the night, the huge gear that could influence the fate of a country finally started to turn slowly.

Every gear is tightly fastened to each other, there is no gap for flexibility, and there is no chance to breathe.

It just rolled slowly and heavily towards Yuanzhou City, bit by bit, unstoppable.

"."

"Youjia, let's go."

The night is like ink, and there are no stars or moons in the night sky.

Standing on a low mountain, Ning Yongnian looked at the gradually receding black shadow under his feet, shook his head and looked away.

Youjia, who was dressed in a black dress, stood beside him, hesitated for a moment and then asked softly, "Your Majesty, what are these people going to do?"

"Do something big."

Ning Yongnian casually gave an answer of "saying is tantamount to not saying". Ning Yongnian turned to look at You Jia and said with a smile, "You should know that you shouldn't ask about these things."

"The subordinate knows it's wrong!"

With a thump in his heart, Youjia immediately knelt down on the ground without hesitation: "I hope the emperor will forgive me!"

"."

"Get up."

Ning Yongnian shook his head: "If you really want to know, I can actually tell you."

"Subordinates dare not."

Without getting up, Yujia buried her head very low.

But at the next moment, a hand suddenly pinched her chin and lifted her face slightly.

"In a few days, you'll know everything."

"."

A few days later?

What will be released then?
Could this matter have something to do with Mr. Wei?

You Jia looked up at Ning Yongnian with a calm expression, but she was thinking of Wei Changtian in her heart.

She was a little afraid that Wei Changtian would be involved in such a conspiracy, but she knew that she couldn't ask anymore.

"Yes, my subordinate understands."

After a long silence, Youjia finally forced a smile on his face.

But Ning Yongnian still had the same sad and joyless expression as before, he slowly let go of the hand holding Yujia's chin, and then spread his palm upwards in front of the latter.

"."

It was obvious what such an action represented.

In an instant, Youjia's pupils shrank suddenly, and she struggled several times in her heart.

But after a long silence, she finally stretched out her hand tremblingly, and gently placed it on Ning Yongnian's palm.

"Hula~"

The long black skirt swayed, and Ning Yongnian exerted a little force on his hands, just like that to lift You Jia up from the ground.

But after doing this, he didn't let go of his hand immediately, but looked at Youjia who was biting his lips tightly, and said softly:

"Youjia, actually there is something I've always been curious about."

"You have told me before that no matter what happens, you are all my people and Longwei's people."

"I want to ask you, do you still say that now?"
