Empress, she is beautiful Lu Ziye

The body Bi Luo dragged was the subordinate who was sitting opposite Bai Zhanxiao just now.

Hearing Ajing's question, Biluo frowned, "He bumped into it himself."

He was already a turtle in the urn, so there was no need for her to kill him. He could only be brought back alive for interrogation.

But when the other party was making a move, the dagger hit her straight. Bi Luo couldn't retreat in time, and the person who reacted was already dead.

"Want to die?"

A-Jing glanced at the graying figure on the ground and pursed her lips, "That's it. In this case, just find a place to bury it. There's no point in taking it back."

She is not a kind person, and at most she can only express her loyalty. From different standpoints, there will be different approaches.

You have made a choice, life or death, both are fate.

……

In the basement, it is impossible to tell the difference between day and night, and people's sensitivity to time naturally decreases. In an instant, it becomes day, and in an instant, it becomes night.

When Bai Zhanxiao woke up, there was a small sound in his ears, like the sound of a match being lit.

His eyelids slowly opened, and the light shone in through the slits of his eyes, which was a bit dazzling for a moment. It took him a moment to adjust before he could fully open his eyes.

A pair of slender hands were holding the fire. After the candle wick was completely ignited, he shook his arm, extinguished the match, and threw it on the ground.

It's Nan Zhen.

Bai Zhanxiao narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the person in front of him silently. The other person didn't say anything either. He found a bench to sit down and looked at him leisurely.

He was neither sentenced to death nor forced to question him.

Their eyes met, and no one gave in.

"Why are you staring at me like this?" Bai Zhanxiao opened his mouth, but the medicine had not yet taken effect and his voice was still a little hoarse. "You have found out everything I did, so you don't want to kill me right away?"

Nan Zhen bent her elbows and propped her chin up, her eyes flashing slightly, "It doesn't matter whether it's sooner or later. Everything you do has been proven. I don't need to ask anymore. But I'm curious. , What are the benefits of betraying me and Mingyue Pavilion?"

With his ability and the reputation of Mingyue Pavilion, he is enough to be respected and treated favorably in the world. Why bother to board the Yu family's pirate ship?

"Ah."

At this point, Bai Zhanxiao had nothing to hide, so he just snorted, "It's no good, it's just that he happened to satisfy my ambition."

Bai Zhanxiao has never been such a peaceful person.

In the past, I had not yet gained a reputation, my abilities were not good, and I was unable to do anything I wanted to do. When his wings become more mature, he will naturally no longer want to be inferior to others.

It was true that Nan Zhen was grateful for his promotion, but his thoughts went beyond that.

"Pavilion Master, I have never looked down upon you, and I have made suggestions to you many times, but you have never rejected my ideas, leaving no room for negotiation. How could I accept it?"

Nan Zhen met his eyes and her tone was slightly condensed, "Your proposal is just disturbing the world and will do no harm to Mingyue Pavilion. Do you still feel aggrieved?"

"What is unprofitable?!" Bai Zhanxiao retorted, "To unify the world and establish order, this is profit! Do you think I don't know that you are also dissatisfied with the behavior of many people and do not like the practices of some sects? You don't want to Stand up and be the one who makes the rules, then I’ll do it.”

"I have even thought up plans for various sects, but you discarded them without even looking at them. Different people have different laws of existence. Don't destroy them without authorization. But in my eyes, they are just the strong ones. It’s just about bullying the weak into submission.”

"I thought you were different from other women, but I didn't expect that your horizons were not broad enough. I thought you could just guard Mingyue Pavilion? Little did I know that there were so many people behind the scenes who wanted you to fall down." Mingyue Pavilion's intelligence network makes people jealous. , the spies that have been uncovered over the years are irrefutable evidence.

Sticking to the old rules will only lead to self-destruction. Asking for help from outside is the right way!

After listening to his words, Nan Zhen remained silent for a long time.

Bai Zhanxiao raised his chin with an angry look in his eyes, looking a bit cynical like when he was young.

Nan Zhen stared at him and suddenly laughed.

"What are you laughing at?" he asked.

Nan Zhen: "As long as you are strong enough, you will become a threat to others, and there will be people who will cause trouble. But besides you, who has caused Mingyue Pavilion to stumble in these years? You are capable on the one hand, and on the other hand you are also capable. It’s my fault for giving you too much trust.”

Bai Zhanxiao choked.

The corners of Nan Zhen's mouth gradually drooped, and her gaze fell on the dancing candlelight, "If the water is clear, there will be no fish. Do you think what you see is the truth? What you think is 'good' is real to others." Okay?"

"Everyone can only make decisions and choices for themselves, and intervene without knowing the whole picture, just to impress themselves."

Bai Zhanxiao: "That's better than being an indifferent spectator."

Nan Zhen suddenly raised her eyelids and looked at him, "Are the lives of those people you sacrificed when you were implementing your so-called dream of 'unifying the world' not life? Are you not indifferent... Heh, you are not indifferent to those other people who cannot be touched. The people in the sect feel sorry for you, but you can kill your companions and subordinates who work with you without blinking an eye. Your old-fashioned and warm-heartedness really impresses me."

"Speaking of benefiting everyone in the world is just a fig leaf to satisfy your ambition."

The surroundings were very quiet, and the words echoed after hitting the stone wall for a long time.

She stood up slowly, walked to Bai Zhanxiao, and looked at him deeply, "We don't interfere in court affairs, but do you think the court won't take action if it disrupts the world?"

Bai Zhanxiao: "We have always resolved matters in the world by ourselves. This is the rule."

"Who made the rules?" Nan Zhen asked.

He was speechless for a moment.

This is not an explicit order in black and white, but a consensus among everyone.

The so-called Jianghu is an order based on justice. People who have revenge and grievances gather together to spontaneously form various organizational sects and form their own circles.

No one can dispute this.

It wasn't until Nan Zhen asked that Bai Zhanxiao realized that he couldn't answer.

"There is another adjective before temples and people in the world, and that is the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Although there are many sects that seem to be contradictory, they maintain a delicate balance between them; not to mention that your so-called unification is not easy to achieve, even if If you unify the world, this huge organization will not be in your hands."

"Within the Great Zhou Dynasty, there was only one place where unified laws and regulations could be formulated, and that was the imperial palace."

"Large-scale changes will inevitably lead to chaos. Many innocent people have been injured by swords and swords dancing, and ordinary people have been involved. How can the court let it go?"

"The border situation has always been tense, and foreign aggression has not been eliminated. If civil strife increases, the country will still be unable to function normally, and there will be no justice in the world!"

Nan Zhen paused for a moment and said quietly, "I believe you had good intentions at the beginning and wanted to accomplish something and leave your name in history. But as your power grows, do you have original intentions or expanded desires? clear."

When he was willing to make a deal with Yu Xinghong, his thoughts were already impure. (End of chapter)
