Traveling through the heavens from the prequel of the Lotus Lantern

Chapter 747: At first he was cheerful and bright, but then he was calm and restrained. Growth probably makes people become quieter and quieter.
  Jiang Xuening lowered his eyes:
  "sorry."

Yang Jiao, who had awakened in Yan Lin, felt like his heart was being cut by a knife, and many dreams that seemed both real and illusory were constantly appearing in his mind.

In the dream, on the day of the crowning ceremony, he was brutally massacred. His father was tortured and killed by Xue Yuan right under his nose. He was rescued by others. When he wanted to escape from the capital, he couldn't let go of the person in front of him. Unexpectedly, after meeting him, he became even more... His heart was filled with despair, and an unforgettable hatred arose in his heart.

Later, he and Xie Wei rebelled and captured the capital. Because of this hatred, he took revenge on Jiang Xuening.

Yang Jiao frowned slightly and forcibly used his thoughts to dispel the images in his mind. Previously, he dealt with the Xue family quickly, handed Xue Yuan to Xie Wei, and sent Yan Lin to the border, just to see if he could make them faster. Awakening.

Now that Yan Lin has awakened and his goal has been achieved, coupled with this feeling in his heart, he immediately wants to leave.

"Don't say sorry. You and I will never have to say thank you or sorry. There is no reason in the world that if I like you, you must like me."

Jiang Xuening's pretty face was reflected in Yang Jiao's eyes:

"So I don't necessarily want to be with you if I like you. I just hope that in the future you will not be discouraged when you encounter a low point in your life. At least there were people who were attracted by your charm, and they will be in the future."

"If liking is the paranoia of wanting to possess, then love is the restraint of wanting to touch but then withdrawing your hand. I don't expect to be able to stand by your side one day."

He paused slightly and said softly:

"I just want to tell you that your light once illuminated me. You are not the bad person you say. If you want something in the future, try your best to get it, so that you will not have any regrets."

Yang Jiao waved his hand to stop Jiang Xuening from speaking:
  "The young man is proud of the spring breeze and his horse's hooves are broken. He doesn't believe that there is separation in the world, but in the end he talks about the wind and frost wrapped in smoke. He is a drunk young man."

"Ning Ning, I am about to rush to the border, so let me give you one last sincere wish."

"I wish you will be relieved of your worries, I wish you will never regret anything you have done, and I wish you will be as bright as the bright moon, always accompanied by the stars."

As soon as he finished speaking, he jumped up and disappeared into the garden, leaving only the words "I never like to leave, and I don't need to see you off tomorrow."

With tears in her eyes, Jiang Xuening stared blankly at the direction where Yang Jiao left.

Three days later.

In the imperial palace, in the imperial garden.

The heavy-skinned Yang Jiao put his hands on the pavilion and watched the snowflakes falling from the sky.

Wang Xinyi, who was waiting nearby, looked like he wanted to persuade but didn't dare to. In fact, in the past few days, this man had used iron-blooded methods to deal with the Xue family party inside and outside the court, which affected at least tens of thousands of people.

Not only did they vigorously reorganize the Xingwu Guards, they were renamed Jinyi Guards, and commanders were set up for unified management.

Afterwards, they began to rectify the administration of officials, which resulted in countless corrupt officials being imprisoned. Therefore, no one inside or outside the palace knew that the current emperor was a determined and decisive person.

In addition, many high-ranking officials and dignitaries were confiscated and exterminated, and the Yan family was very loyal. The military power and money were both in his hands. Who dared to assassinate them?

Not far away, a charming female voice suddenly came:

"Second brother, it's freezing cold. I don't know what's so good about the snow."

I saw Shen Zhiyi walking over with Jiang Xuening.

"My daughter has seen your Majesty."

After Yang Jiao asked Jiang Xuening to excuse himself, he said to Shen Zhiyi:
  "You came just in time. Remember to go to Tai'an Palace later to remind the mother that Concubine Qin is pregnant with her eldest brother's heir. I don't expect anything unexpected to happen to the child. Besides, let her worry less and stop mentioning the draft. Enlightenment Harem matters.”

Shen Zhiyi immediately understood the meaning of the words, nodded and said:
  "I see."

Yang Jiao glanced at Jiang Xuening, and then cast his eyes on Shen Zhiyi:
  "Tell me, what do you want from me?"

Shen Zhiyi said with a smile:

"Second brother has been busy with state affairs these days. He only spends half an hour here to rest every day. I can't come and disturb you at other times, so I can only take advantage of this leisure time to care about you. No, I specially brought chicken soup to nourish my body. .”

As she spoke, she asked the maid to place the food box on the table in the pavilion, then scooped out a bowl of chicken soup and brought it to Yang Jiao. "Your Majesty, why don't you let your servant test whether it's too hot first?" After Yang Jiao took the soup bowl, Wang Xinyi said with a smile on his face.

Although Yang Jiao's path is limited, he has the power of negative energy and can be invulnerable to all poisons, so he said:

"It doesn't matter, I think Zhiyi already tried it before she came."

After saying that, he took a sip with a spoon, and then continued:
  "Besides delivering chicken soup, you have nothing else to do with me?"

Shen Zhiyi said helplessly:
  "You just let your mother worry about your marriage. However, before you came here, your mother wanted me to advise you. I also thought that when you were born in an emperor's family, you often couldn't help yourself. In the game, I didn’t have a complete guarantee to protect the people I cared about, so I chose another path so as not to hurt others.”

"Now that the Xue family has been eliminated, and my second brother is the master of the world, my mother cannot comment on your choice."

"I just want to remind my second brother that if you want to make Miss Jiang the queen, it's feasible."

Yang Jiao said calmly:
  "I have a fate with her, no need to say more."

Jiang Xuening suddenly said:

"Your Majesty, I have something to say that I don't know whether to say or not?"

Yang Jiao spoke calmly:

"But it doesn't matter."

"The Holy One is the Lord of the world. Therefore, his own affairs are not only family affairs, but also national affairs. The Holy One will eventually have his own queen one day. You once thought so deeply about that handkerchief, but now there is no obstacle. Why does fate say it doesn’t exist, then it doesn’t exist anymore.”

Yang Jiao's eyes were strange:

"You mean, you want me to marry Miss Jiang?"

Jiang Xuening was shocked and said:
  "What I mean is that I would like to ask the Holy Lord to cherish this hard-won fate."

Yang Jiao did not comment, handed the bowl in his hand to Wang Xinyi, and then ordered:

"Get the flute."

Wang Xinyi took the soup bowl with both hands and immediately asked the maid beside him to take out a jade flute and handed it to Yang Jiao.

Then, a crisp flute sound rose from the pavilion. The music was gentle and melodious, just like the chirping of a red bird. The sound was clear and distant, and seemed to contain a hint of lamentation.

Amidst the sound of the flute, the people present seemed to be in a trance when they saw a bright and cheerful girl dressed in red. She was looking forward to the vastness of the world. She just wanted to ride a horse alone, with the sound of the flute filling the sky, and see how vast the world was.

But as time went by, affected by the force majeure around him, he gradually changed into something else.

Her eyes were full of desolation, and she no longer had the innocence and carefreeness of the past, and her eyes were bright.

She no longer behaves arbitrarily and has become a mature, steady and well-behaved woman.

When the song ended, everyone present was affected by the sound of the flute and burst into tears unknowingly. Yang Jiao silently said:
  "Su Qingyi, you really made me realize that Cheng Shaoshang's sorrow is greater than the death of his heart."

Since he awakened from the three bodies, he has been constantly plagued by uncontrollable emotions in his heart.

Yang Jiao walked up to Jiang Xuening, handed over the jade flute, and said:

"You were cheerful and bright at first, then you were calm and reserved. As you grow, you will probably become quieter and quieter."

He suppressed the throbbing in his heart and said again:
  "From now on, all grudges have been resolved and you and I no longer owe each other. Can you understand?"

At this moment, Jiang Xuening was finally convinced that Shen Jie in front of him was also a reborn person.
