Chitose words

Lu Shangque looked at her puzzled and said:

"...Your Highness?"

Xie Zhao lowered his head and stared at the connection, thinking about the connection. After a moment, he suddenly asked with a wry smile:

"Is this why you caught up with me on the Immortal Ridge two years ago and then exchanged swords with each other without saying a word?

So, it happened to be that day when you learned the so-called 'truth' about your life experience? "

Lu Shangque lowered his head in pain, almost ashamed to raise his head to look at her.

".yes."

Xie Zhao calmly tapped the table with the tip of his right index finger, making a soft "knock-knock-knock" sound.

wrong.

This is too coincidental.

At the beginning of the third year of Jingan, the emperor ordered her to return to Zhaoge City to celebrate her birthday on the pretext of congratulating her on the Qianqiu Festival, and immediately prepared such a "Hongmen Banquet";

On the fifth day of the first lunar month of the third year of Jingan's reign, she was surrounded by enemies and was poisoned by her most trusted compatriot brother, sealing away her inner strength;

It also happened that on the fifth day of the first lunar month of the third year of Jingan, she escaped from Zhaoge City after going through all kinds of difficulties, but was intercepted by Lushangque at Shenxianling on the outskirts of Lanling City;

On the same day, Lu Shangque learned the so-called "truth" about her life experience. He was so angry that he lost his mind and gave her a nearly fatal sword blow.

However, how can there be so many coincidences in this world?

There are so many coincidences coming together, which is very problematic!

Xie Zhao didn't believe that such a coincidence existed in the world. All the coincidences against her happened on the same day and at the same time!

Unless someone is silently leading all of this!

Someone has been secretly planning all of this, and then hides all the "coincidences" he has until the time he thinks is most suitable, and then lets them explode together, so as to achieve the best effect he wants to achieve!

For example, to bring down the best swordsman in the world who was always invincible?

However, although all the previous signs seemed to indicate that the Lan siblings might be the ones behind the scenes, Xie Zhao did not think that they were the real "third person."

Because if they, the descendants of King Yong, really have such power and strength, why have they not pointed their swords at the real enemy of their fathers, their uncle, the Emperor of Western Xinjiang, Lan Weitang, for so many years?

Why do we still need to use our own strength to fight against others in the North and South?

Isn’t this putting the cart before the horse?

Does this also mean that there is a pair of hands always behind them to support them?

On the one hand, the "those hands" seem to be selflessly helping them "revenge", but on the other hand, they are using their identities to achieve certain goals of their own?

Perhaps Nanchao Tianchen is the ultimate goal of the "third person"?

Whether it is the leak of the life experience of the "Shaoguang Mace Immortal" Leng Hanyan twenty years ago;

Or later, the Nightless City was invaded by Bei Chao Xizuo, and the "Luoshu Mantra" was rushed to the Shentai Palace by the late emperor;

Then to the mysterious and early deaths of the three heroes of the Xie family in Xunyang, and even to the thrilling and shocking night of Zhaoge's bloody night two years ago.

...Who is it?

Xie Zhao was puzzled.

What kind of chess game does he want to play?

Xie Zhao knew very well that the information he currently had was too little, and the asymmetry in information was most likely a cognitive bias.

So in order to avoid getting into misunderstandings, she decided to temporarily bring her thoughts that had spread too far back to the immediate present, trying to smooth out more clear lines of context.

So, she asked softly: "Lan Suning has been operating in Shedun City these years, so it must be Lan Suyi who came to Zhaoge City to find you two years ago, right?"

Lushangque nodded slightly.

"He is my half-brother, two years younger than me."

Xie Zhao glanced at him thoughtfully.

"You are not the kind of foolish person who follows the wind and follows the wind, so regarding your life experience, Lan Suyi must have provided strong evidence and convinced you to believe his story."

Lu Shangque raised his left arm and rolled up the long flowing sleeves of the divine robe of Shentai Palace, revealing an old injury on his elbow.

Xie Zhao was startled and said: "Isn't this the sword mark you have had on your body since you were a child?"

Lu Shangque nodded and said: "Yes, Your Highness. He also has this sword mark on his arm.

The difference is that my sword mark is on my left arm, while his is on his right arm - our sword marks are from the same sword, and they are joint vertical wounds pierced by one sword. "

Xie Zhao raised his eyebrows slightly and sighed: "I see."

The old sword mark cut down Lu Shangque's left arm and skipped Lan Suyi's right arm.

The identical old wounds on the two men's bodies, their fortunes are similar, and their sword intent is similar, which is the best natural evidence.

This sword mark can also prove that the two little babies were leaning on each other when they were scratched. Even Lu Shangque's left arm and Lan Suyi's right arm were still tightly attached to each other.

She carefully looked at the sword marks on Lu Shangque's elbow that were still clearly visible after so many years, and then said:

"Whether you believe it or not, I really don't know what happened back then."

Lu Shangque said softly: "I... believe in Your Highness."

Previously, he was so overwhelmed by hatred that he didn't think through many things clearly.

His family was ruined when he was two years old, but Xie Zhao was eight years younger than him. How innocent was she?

It was just that when I suddenly learned the "truth", I didn't know what was true and what was false.

Therefore, they mistakenly thought that they were chess pieces being played between their grandfather and grandson, which almost led to a catastrophe.

Xie Zhao nodded slightly when he heard the words, and said: "Besides, my grandfather has passed away many years ago, so I can't tell anything for him.

But I never believed that my grandfather would be a person who killed and harmed innocent children. Although he killed countless people in his life, they were all on the battlefield.

Whether in court or on the battlefield, my grandfather lived an upright life and would never kill innocent women and children. "She lowered her head and looked directly into Lu Shangque's eyes, which were full of magnanimity and trust in Xie Lin.

"I believe in his character. Lu Shangque, you are also a child raised by your grandfather. You grew up by his side before you were eleven years old. You should understand him."

Lu Shangque's fingers unconsciously tightened the hem of his robe on his knees, and he couldn't help but feel a little confused for a moment.

Yes, he is also a child who has been trained by Xie Lin since he was a child...

When I was young in Xunyang, all the children in the old house respected and loved this old man who was of high status but had no pretensions and always had a gentle smile towards them.

It seems that apart from being a little harsh towards His Highness Chitose, Kamizhukuni is very tolerant towards other children in the mansion.

Even if everyone in the world doesn't know what kind of person Lao Shangzhu Guo is, doesn't he also know?

Why did Xie Lin forget about the kindness he had treated him and the painstaking care he had shown him because of those so-called "evidences"?

"I can't tell you all the truth about that year that you want to know.

But I'll find out one day, and I'll tell you all about it then. "

After Xie Zhao said that, he stood up and prepared to leave.

"Your Highness?"

The road-scarred sparrow raised its head in panic.

The other person was still kneeling on the ground, but subconsciously reached out to grab her sleeves.

"Where are you going?"

Xie Zhao was silent for a moment and said: "My friends are still waiting for me, it's time for me to leave."

He didn't know how to stay, let alone how to forgive.

So he had no choice but to find something to say: "Your Highness, your injury is not healed now and you need someone to take care of you. I am willing to serve your Highness from behind!"

Xie Zhao smiled, turned his head and looked at him and said:

"No need, I'm used to being idle, so I don't need many people around me. This is actually very good."

Lushangque raised his head with difficulty and said solemnly:

"You don't need me anymore?"

Yes, he is a traitor and an incompetent person, so how can he have the dignity to accompany her?

Xie Zhao said seriously: "No, it's time for you to have your own life——

Shangque, we should not always live around others throughout our lives. Self-suffering is useless, both you and me. "

She gently broke away from his hand, but he didn't dare to force it. He could only stare blankly at the blank space on his palm, thinking about what she said.

However, following her, protecting her, guarding her, and obeying her orders have long been engraved in his own bones and blood.

What kind of life is it that doesn't revolve around her?

He never imagined it.

Seeing his dejected look, Xie Zhao couldn't help but give him a warning, saying:

"If Lan Suyi comes to look for you again in the future, be careful."

Lu Shangque raised his head in confusion and heard the girl whisper:

"Lan Suning is dead, and it was his fault.

Shangque, this pair of 'blood relatives' of yours is really not that simple. "

A flash of astonishment flashed across Lu Shangque's eyes.

"Lan Su Ning is dead?"

Or was it Lan Suyi who ordered someone to kill him?

Aren't they siblings who depend on each other for life?

Xie Zhao sighed: "I caught Lan Suning's leg, I guess Lan Suyi came here just to silence her.

In short, they are acting crazy and cannot be judged by common sense. You, take care of yourself. "
