Thousands of years

The Zhan Zhao in front of him is thinner than when he was seen in the Western Regions more than half a year ago. It is presumably the result of hard work during this period of time, but this demeanor and the perseverance hidden under this gentle appearance seem to be thinner than before. Even more breathtaking, shouldn't he be knocked down by a series of blows?Shouldn't he be overwhelmed and overwhelmed?Why is his plan still in his hands?As soon as he thought of this, Chu Tianyi gritted his teeth with hatred, he wanted to destroy all his hopes, he wanted to see him helpless, life would be worse than death, otherwise the hatred in his heart would be difficult to dispel.

Chu Tianyi met Shang Zhanzhao's gaze and sneered, "So what if you can? What if you can't? Do you think I will tell you now?"

"You!" Zhan Zhao frowned, and the hatred in his black eyes was even worse.Chu Tianyi was not afraid, instead, he took two steps forward to meet his gaze. Unexpectedly, Zhan Zhao withdrew his sword hastily, and heard Chu Tianyi's insane voice: "Since everything is If you die, I want you, Zhan Zhao, to watch the woman you love suffer little by little until she dies, but there is nothing you can do."

These words were like a sharp knife piercing into Zhan Zhao's heart, his brows frowned even tighter, the pain in his heart made him almost unable to stand still, Chu Tianyi looked for this gap, raised his breath and jumped up, Immediately afterwards, the folding fan in his hand slammed open, and countless hidden weapons came towards Zhan Zhao with the sound of the wind.At the same time, Bai Yutang shouted from the temple gate: "Be careful, cat!"

In the darkness, Zhan Zhao, who was dressed in a red official uniform, was surrounded by a solemn and murderous aura that had never been seen before. The brilliance of the giant tower flowed to form an invisible wall, and the hidden weapons were shot down by the sword energy before Zhan Zhao could reach him.Chu Tianyi took advantage of this opportunity to pull away to escape, a white shadow flashed in front of him, Bai Yutang stood in front of him holding a sword, with provocative eyes in Tao Hua's eyes, he jokingly said: "Chu Tianyi, do you want to spend two more days with your Grandpa Bai?" trick?"

Chu Tianyi paused, and before he could answer, Zhan Zhao's cold voice sounded behind him: "Chu Tianyi, you can't run away, follow Zhan and go back to Kaifeng mansion."

At this moment, Chu Tianyi finally realized that he was at the end of his strength, his stern face no longer had the arrogance of the past, and his white clothes were also stained with blood. He coldly glanced at the two people in front of him, didn't speak anymore, and walked forward silently.

Zhan Zhao followed closely behind, and Bai Yutang escorted the men in black who had been restrained in the temple down the mountain in the bitter cold wind.

Back in Kaifeng Mansion, Bao Zheng interrogated everyone overnight and learned that Grand Master Pang was also involved in the kidnapping. Those people in black were all Jianghu people hired by Grand Master Pang. Determined by the Holy One.

At this moment, Grand Master Pang heard the news of Chu Tianyi's arrest, and was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. Regardless of the cold weather, he ordered to prepare a sedan chair, and went into the palace overnight to ask his noble concubine daughter for help.

It was late at night when all the affairs were dealt with, Bai Yutang bid farewell and left Kaifeng Mansion.Zhan Zhao, on the other hand, came to the backyard exhausted. He was not the slightest joy in catching Chu Tianyi. Everything would still come unstoppably, and she would still leave him.Zhan Zhao felt that his footsteps were extremely heavy, he stretched out his hand to hold onto the pillar, his chest was constricted badly, a fishy sweetness welled up in his throat and he swallowed it forcefully, looked up to the backyard, did she ever wake up?How to face her if she wakes up?By now he had nothing to say to her.

A black shadow jumped up the courtyard wall of Kaifeng mansion like lightning, and rushed towards the backyard.Zhan Zhao was startled, disregarding some disordered internal energy, he used his lightness kung fu to chase after him, not far away, Zhan Zhao was startled secretly, only to see that the figure was as fast as a ghost, and his lightness kung fu was far above him.Zhan Zhao didn't know where this person came from, so he didn't dare to be negligent, and he did everything he could to stay far behind that person. The person soon realized that someone was following him, but he couldn't get rid of him. He seemed a little impatient. One turn, one jump, over many roof ridges, and disappear into the darkness.

Zhan Zhao was afraid that he would be caught by the other party's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain, so he didn't chase after him. Standing on the roof, he looked at the place where the man disappeared, and doubts abounded in his heart: Who is this man?Lightness kung fu is so high?Why did he come to Kaifeng mansion late at night?After a long while, he still couldn't figure it out, so he had to jump down from the roof, and found that he had come to the small courtyard. There was no light in the room. Zhan Zhao gently pushed the door and entered, and the air-conditioning rushed in. After extinguishing, he closed the door, leaned over to light the brazier, sat down by the bed again, and covered the person on the bed with the quilt. I wonder how long it will take for her to wake up this time?How long will you stay by your side after waking up?God actually wants to take her away from him in such a cruel way, how can such an ending make him feel embarrassed?Zhan Zhao sat quietly by the bed, sleepless all night.

In the early morning of the second day, Bao Zheng reported the situation to the Ming sage, but Zhao Zhen said that the grand master was deceived by the people in the rivers and lakes. He was confused for a while and did not cause any consequences. He asked Bao Zheng to only sentence him to a fine One year, the income from closing the two major restaurants was confiscated.Bao Zheng argued hard, and finally Zhao Zhen said in a very difficult way: "He is the grand master of the dynasty and the head of the country. Bao Qing has already killed his only son, so I let him go this time for my sake." Just let it go. As long as those Jiang Hu people are dealt with, this matter will be suppressed for the time being. I will warn him to restrain himself."

Hearing what Zhao Zhen said, Bao Zheng couldn't say anything more, so he could only withdraw with the order.

In the following days, everyone in Kaifeng Mansion began to collect all the criminal evidence of Chu Tianyi and Xiang Jun, hoping to bring them to justice as soon as possible.

On this day, the weather was rare, and the winter sun shone warmly on people.In the afternoon, Zhan Zhao returned to the mansion from the outside, all the way to his room, and saw the door open from a distance, the room was filled with sunlight, and a familiar figure was sitting by the bed with his head down, not knowing what he was doing.Zhan Zhao was overjoyed in his heart, and quickly stepped into the door, his joy could not be concealed in his voice: "Ruoqing, you're awake."

Lin Ruoqing raised her head upon hearing the sound, and smiled at him.

"What are you doing?" Zhan Zhao came to her side, looked down at her hand, it was his own blue casual dress, and there was a hole in the cuff at some point, Lin Ruoqing was sewing there with a needle.Looking at the bed again, several of his clothes were spread out there.

"What? You can also sew clothes?" Zhan Zhao was a little surprised.

Lin Ruoqing rolled his eyes at him, and said angrily, "Look at me, is it not bad if the sewing is not good? At least it's fine if the sewing is not open." After finishing speaking, she bit off the thread in her hand decently, and stood up. Shaking his clothes, he said with a sense of accomplishment, "Okay."

Zhan Zhao casually glanced at the place where she sewed. The stitches were too big, not to mention crooked. He smiled lightly and didn't say anything.

Lin Ruoqing hung the clothes on the bed and the one in her hand on the rope outside the door, muttering to herself: "It's rare that the weather is so good, take the clothes out to dry to avoid mold." As her voice gradually lowered: "You only have so few clothes, I want to learn how to make one for you with Xiaojuan, I don't know if there is still time."

Zhan Zhao felt a pain in his heart, and opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

Xiaojuan walked over with a tray in her hand, greeted Zhan Zhao, and said to Lin Ruoqing, "Miss Lin, the chicken soup is ready."

"Oh, thank you Xiaojuan, let's put it in Mrs. Zhan's room." Lin Ruoqing said, but her hands kept drying each piece of Zhan Zhao's clothes, gently smoothing every wrinkle on them, She did it so seriously, the sun shone on her light yellow clothes, covering her whole body with a layer of golden light.Zhan Zhao really wants time to stand still at this moment, he and her are like ordinary couples, spending time on very ordinary things and slowly getting old together, but now they can't even make this simplest wish come true. accomplish.

Feeling his gaze, Lin Ruoqing turned her head slightly, and smiled sweetly: "Don't be dazed, drink up the chicken soup, I've been stewing it all morning, it won't be good after a while." Xiaojuan put the chicken soup in the The table retreated quietly.

Zhan Zhao said softly, "I'll wait for you to drink together."

"Alright, let's drink together." Lin Ruoqing shook her head helplessly, and followed him into the room.

Sitting at the table, he realized that Xiaojuan only took a spoon. Zhan Zhao didn't care, he gently scooped up a spoon, put it near his mouth, blew it, and handed it to Lin Ruoqing. Lin Ruoqing had a happy smile on her face, Opening his mouth wide to drink the spoonful of chicken soup, he didn't forget to smack his mouth and said with great enjoyment, "It's delicious."

Zhan Zhao smiled, and was about to take back the spoon, but Lin Ruoqing snatched it away. She followed his example and scooped up a spoonful of chicken soup, and handed it to Zhan Zhao's mouth. Zhan Zhao was slightly taken aback, and looked at Lin Ruoqing With eyes full of smiles, he suppressed the sourness in his nose and opened his mouth to drink. "How is it? Is it good?" Lin Ruoqing approached her small face and asked expectantly. The blue color between her brows had spread to her entire forehead, and her entire face was already emaciated.

Zhan Zhao couldn't bear to look at her, turned his face away, and said in a shy voice, "It's delicious."

Lin Ruoqing pretended not to notice the change in his expression, handed him the spoon, and said domineeringly: "It's delicious, just drink it all up. See how thin you are, how can you help Bao Bao if you don't take care of your body?" My lord handles the case."

Zhan Zhao lowered his head to take the spoon, not letting her see the tears in his eyes, nodded lightly, bowed his head and drank without saying a word, tears dripped into the golden yellow and oily chicken soup in front of his eyes.

Lin Ruoqing looked at Zhan Zhao quietly with her chin in her hands. The man in front of her had done so much for herself, but there was so little she could do for him. If she died, it would bring him endless pain. If I knew this earlier, why bother to know each other?
