Great Ye Empress

Chapter 204
He asked, "Is it only when I am a puddle of mud that you are good to me?"

Just like when Yun Zhao met him for the first time, he rescued him who was worse than a dog.

Just like when he gave up on himself, Yun Zhao would encourage him...to protect him!
Like... on the Yongjia carriage, when he deliberately showed weakness and embarrassment to the little Langjun in front of him, the little Langjun would gently bandage his wounds.

Xiao Zhiyan's words made Xie Yunchu want to kill him recklessly, like being stung by a poisonous insect.

Once upon a time, she also thought so...

She felt that whether it was Ji Jingci's marriage to her, or the kindness he taught herself and gave her... it was all because of her lowliness and cowardice. She thought that such a gentleman who was kind to others would treat her with more warmth than others. Because he is kind and gentle, she is humble.

At that moment, she seemed to be able to empathize with Xiao Zhiyan.

They...were very similar people.

Xie Yunchu saw that Xiao Zhiyan's eyes became more and more red. It wasn't the red that was crazy that day. It was fragile and humble...with endless affection and pain.

Just like the bereaved dog Xie Yunchu once saw on the street.

"You saved my life, and I survived to this day in order to wait for you. On the battlefield... every time of life and death, it was because I thought that you had come back and that you were still waiting for me. Escape from here." He grasped Xie Yunchu's hand holding the dagger, his lips curled into a small smile, fixedly looking at her, dragged her to push the dagger deeper into his waist and abdomen, and clenched his hand on the partition fan. , "If you don't want it, then end me with your own hands, just like you saved me, just a little more..."

She threatened Xiao Zhiyan, wanted to use Xiao Zhiyan, and even killed Xiao Zhiyan.

But it never occurred to me that Xiao Zhi Banquet was willing to die at Yun Zhao's hands.

Xie Yunchu couldn't take his hand out of Xiao Zhiyan's palm, and pressed the other hand against Xiao Zhiyan's chest: "Xiao Zhiyan, I'm not Yun Zhao..."

Xiao Zhiyan didn't care at all, just stared at her, grabbed her hand and pushed the dagger deeper into his body, as if wanting to see even a trace of distress and reluctance from Xie Yunchu's frosty face.

I look forward to Xie Yunchu being able to protect him like the one who threatened him with his life that day and who protected Xie's family protected Ji Jingci...

Xiao Zhiyan was even crazier than Xie Yunchu expected.

Her love and obsession with Yun Zhao was also deeper than she imagined.

The humble have seen the light, and would rather die... than endure the darkness.

When they grew up, they were always ignored and disliked, and they lacked love too much, so when they met such a gentle person and gave them a touch of warmth... it would be like seeing a life-saving straw and wanting to hold on to them.

She understands.

But Xiao Zhiyan was too much.

Xiao Zhiyan...like the reflection of the dark side in Yunchu's bronze mirror, their experiences are too similar.

The only difference is that she has the sincerity of Ji Jingci.

But Yun Zhao had never loved Xiao Zhiyan.

Xiao Zhiyan loves Yun Zhao and is not afraid of life and death.

The icy sharp blade sank into his body little by little, and the pain in his body... couldn't compare to the pain in Xie Yunchu's heart without any waves in his eyes.

"You've never died, and if you don't understand, you'll have nothing if you die." Xie Yunchu and Xiao Zhiyan were fighting to prevent the sharp blade from sinking into his body. Never seeing someone you like again, not everyone gets a chance to do it all over again."

Although Xiao Zhiyan was wrong, his hand stopped. He leaned down and got closer to Xie Yunchu. He lowered his voice and asked her, "Are you reluctant?"

"I promised a person that if there were other means, I would not kill anyone. I also don't want to cause trouble for myself. If the prince of the dynasty dies here, at my hands, I can't afford it, neither can the Xie family, nor can I afford it. Besides... I'm not the one who made you die willingly."

Taking advantage of Xiao Zhiyan's stunned gap, Xie Yunchu slowly pushed the person away without pulling out the blade.

Although Xie Yunchu was not a kind-hearted person, he felt a little more compassion for Xiao Zhiyan because of his empathy.

"His Royal Highness, don't hurt any relatives and friends I care about, just treat it as... my reward for saving you! But when I saved you, it was because you were born with birthmarks on your face like me, and you felt that you and I had the same disease! The person who encouraged you is indeed Yun Zhao."

Xiao Zhiyan heard Xie Yunchu admit that he had saved him at first, but ignored Xie Yunchu's words behind him, and said softly, "I promise you."

"Thank you, Your Highness. From now on, we will not violate the river water. I will be my Xie Liulang... Marry a wife and have children according to Xie Liulang's life. Your Highness will be a good His Royal Highness King Yan. According to the life of His Royal Highness, he will marry the princess and go to the fief." She The voice was indifferent, "We are all well and respectfully, so as not to make people think that there is something good for Longyang, not good for Xie's... or His Royal Highness."

This also counts as clearing them both.

Now that Xiao Zhiyan had promised not to take action against the people she cared about, and she moved with compassion, Xie Yunchu let go of the idea of ​​taking advantage of Xiao Zhiyan and restrained his killing intent.

"I'm afraid the blood won't stop if I draw the knife rashly. Find a doctor to have a look."

After speaking, Xie Yunchu and Xiao Zhiyan planned to leave, but Xiao Zhiyan grabbed his arm and dragged him back to him.

"I don't care what others say about Longyang!" He could see Xie Yunchu's indifference, he spoke in a hoarse voice, with suppressed pain and negativity in his voice, "Don't push me away, and rely too much on others. I don't know what I will do when I feel bad..."

Maybe he will do things to hurt her and use extraordinary means to trap her by his side forever.

Perhaps, one day she will be strong enough to kill all the people she cares about, leaving her alone to rely on...

Or maybe, forcing her to death makes her have to submit.

Xie Yunchu took a deep look at Xiao Zhiyan, and peeled off his hand that was clasping his arm: "Your Highness is precious."

After getting out of the elegant room and getting on the carriage, Xie Yunchu realized that Xiao Zhiyan's blood was on his hands.

She looked coldly at her blood-stained hand. Her fingers were soft and boneless, white and lustrous, stained with blood. The red and white were clearly very beautiful, but... it was too weak.

Today, she came with the purpose of killing Xiao Zhiyan because she could not persuade Xiao Zhiyan, but this person was willing to die.

She drew an unused handkerchief from the carriage box and wiped it slowly.

Although she felt pity for Xiao Zhiyan, it didn't mean that she let go of her defense against Xiao Zhiyan.

As long as he keeps his distance and stops being mad at her and the people around her, Xie Yunchu can either not use him or kill him.

Of course, if he dared to be malicious to Ji Jingci, she would not hesitate...kill him!Even if they die together.

When Bai Tang entered the door, she saw Xiao Zhiyan standing in front of the window, clutching her waist and abdomen, quietly watching the carriage leave downstairs...
