The Blood Crown

"Calm down." She Zhun said anxiously, "Maybe Feng Ye is playing tricks, what I can hear now is only superficial, what if this is Feng Ye's trick to lure you back? He doesn't Maybe take three cities to gamble."

"Yes, he may be cheating, but he is still using Yu'er to threaten me." Yan Sikong gritted his teeth, "Didn't he think that Yu'er was his childhood sweetheart back then? Didn't he think that I was ungrateful and ungrateful? Ruthless, how could he be willing to put his 'Thinking' in danger, why would he think that I would go back for Yu'er, what does he mean?!"

She Zhun's handsome face was gloomy like a rainstorm: "Perhaps, deep down in his heart, he knows who the real Yan Sikong is, but he just doesn't want to admit it."

She Zhun's words really pierced through Yang with a hundred steps, and hit Yan Sikong's heart of flesh and blood. Why didn't he think so, how much Feng Ye hated him so much that he didn't even want to admit his identity.He laughed at himself: "Perhaps, he just hopes that the 'Sikong' in his mind is not me."

"There is another possibility." She Zhun stared straight at Yan Sikong, "In addition to Yuan Nanyu, Feng Ye also sent someone here."

Yan Sikong narrowed his eyes and already had the answer in his heart: "...Yuan Shaoxu?"

"That's right." She Zhun said, "In this way, no matter you are Sikong or Nan Yu, there is always one of the two Yuan family brothers that you care about."

"Yuan Shaoxu, hehe." Yan Sikong sneered, "I don't believe he can't see that there is no brotherhood between me and Yuan Shaoxu."

"It doesn't matter whether he sees it or not. The important thing is that you don't fall for his tricks." She Zhun clasped Yan Sikong's shoulders tightly, "The reason why I didn't tell you is because the information is false and true. It's hard to tell the truth from the fake, how can you make him happy!"

"Let's not talk about Feng Ye's reality, but he let Yuan Shaoxu follow Yu'er, and I was worried." Yan Sikong's eyes were dark, "He secretly told Chen Kui to frame me, I don't know what else he can do. what come?"

She Zhun said disgustedly: "This Yuan Shaoxu is so shameless and despicable, you guys are brothers, you lost half of your life to avenge his father, he is not only ungrateful, but also envious of the good and the capable, allied with the enemy to frame you, He must die!"

"Now I want to know the depth of his relationship with Chen Kui."

"Do you think he will betray Fengye?"

Yan Sikong shook his head: "I don't think he will. After all, Yu'er is his own younger brother. He is most likely to succeed in following Feng Ye. He also knows that no one looks down on traitors, so he and Chen Kui's cooperation is probably just to get rid of me."

"In order to get rid of you, he must have revealed your true identity to Chen Wei, otherwise it would be difficult to explain the dagger, but what about Yuan Nanyu's true identity? Could Chen Wei already know?"

Yan Sikong shook his head, and said firmly: "Yu'er is Yuan Shaoxu's biggest reliance, and he won't sell Yu'er even if he sells Fengye."

"Maybe not now, but in the future, despicable and treacherous people like Yuan Shaoxu will do anything for themselves."

"That's right, that's what I'm most worried about. This time Yuan Shaoxu went out with Yu'er, it may be Feng Ye's intention, but it may also be Yuan Shaoxu's request. Although Yu'er is the coach, he is his younger brother. If not If it is suppressed, Yuan Shaoxu will definitely have the heart to overstep and take over, if it is too suppressed, with Yuan Shaoxu's limited capacity, I don't know what trouble it will cause Yu'er."

She Zhun said with a cold face: "After all, you just want to go back, don't you? You are worried about Yuan Nanyu on the left and Yuan Shaoxu on the right. In fact, the thing you can't let go of is Feng Ye. Yan Sikong, don't you Obsessed?"

Yan Sikong sighed lightly: "She Zhun..."

"If you want to go back." She Zhun said sharply, "Whatever Feng Ye did to you, you will bring shame upon yourself!"

"So I won't go back."

"what……"

Yan Sikong said calmly: "Don't worry, I won't go back to find Fengye."

"You go to Yuan Nanyu, isn't it the same? I worked so hard to get you..."

"I won't go to Yu'er either."

She Zhun was stunned, even though Yan Sikong said so, but listening to his tone, it didn't look like he wanted to let go.

Yan Sikong looked at the falling twilight in the sky, and gradually swallowed the rolling mountains into the darkness.No matter how great and powerful the forces in this world are, they all have an irresistible destiny. The sun rises and sets, and the cold and heat alternate. The rivers and rivers will eventually flow into the sea, and the flowers will fade when they bloom. , Somewhere, everything has its own arrangements.

He wants to resist the suffering he has suffered, but he doesn't know what to resist, just like the sun and the moon cannot be reversed, the cold and heat cannot be disordered, and the sky is like this, how can people be like ants?

He has been running away in a direction that makes him confused, but he knows that his heart is still trapped in place.

"Sikong..." Seeing that he didn't speak, She Zhun felt even more disturbed.

"She Zhun." Yan Sikong looked at She Zhun, his eyes were clear and wise, as if after so many days had passed, he had just come back to his senses, "You said you wanted to take me back to Jiangnan, what are we going to do when we go back to Jiangnan? ?”

"I, the money I earn is enough for us to squander for a lifetime. We can go back to the countryside, or go to the mountains and rivers. You can do whatever you want..." She Zhunyue said, his voice became weaker, maybe he suddenly realized It turns out that the person in front of him is Yan Sikong, the youngest Jinshi in the past century, Yan Sikong who has the talent of strategizing and guiding the country.

Such Yan Sikong, although planted on the word "love", still cannot be underestimated.

Yan Sikong said calmly: "Walking boats all over the world, idle clouds and wild cranes... I am not unimpressed with that kind of life, but most of it just passed by in a flash. It's like eating delicious food for a long time, and I always want to try porridge and side dishes. Among the scholars in the world, whoever does not want to be an official, does not want to be an official, and is familiar with the books of sages and sages, goods and emperors' families, even if they are not for fame, profit, or honoring their ancestors, they just use the word "Zhi"; To be an official, what is the way out for scholars? Those who can’t be an official or make achievements in the officialdom are full of resentment and resentment for being unrecognized, writing about how comfortable traveling in the mountains and rivers, and how fun it is to go back to the countryside, it’s mostly acid.” He stared at She Zhun, "I have been at a loss these days. I don't know where I am going. I have studied all my life, but my ambitions have not been fulfilled. How can I live an old life in my youth?"

She Zhun's eyes dimmed: "Actually, I have already guessed that your ambition is no less than Feng Ye's or Chen Yu's. How could you be willing to be unknown and unknown?"

"I am ambitious, but unlike them, I know what I can and cannot do. I am a counselor, I can't be a commander, and I can't be an emperor. Feng Ye is not an emperor, but he wants to fight for the king. Chen Yu is not a handsome man. If you want to lead the army, these two people will lose both." Yan Sikong clenched his fists secretly, "And I, I have unfinished business, I haven't told the world about Yuanmao's grievances, and I haven't personally thanked you. Zhongren is going to hell, I haven't finished with Shen Hexuan yet, I haven't seen the revival of Dasheng ruling the world yet. She Zhun, I'm in too deep, I can't let go."

That sentence "I can't let it go" was full of helplessness, and She Zhun felt bitter when he heard it. He took a deep breath: "That's right, this is you."

Yan Sikong said guiltily: "She Zhun, I'm sorry. I, Yan Sikong, can die on the battlefield of swords, lights and swords, or in the turbulent court, but I can't die comfortably. That's not my life, my reputation It doesn't matter whether it's a mess or notoriety, but it can't be nameless."

She Zhun nodded, as if admitting it: "You have never changed, that's fine, if Feng Ye can really change you, then it's not you."

"Feng Ye... Feng Ye and I were just an accident." Yan Sikong said lightly.

"Then what are your plans?"

Yan Sikong took a deep breath, his eyes drifted to the south: "I'm going to find Chen Kui."

She Zhun froze, unable to speak for a long time.

Yan Sikong showed a cold and treacherous smile.

"Go to Chen Kui, Feng Ye is afraid that he will..."

"Do you hate me more?" Yan Sikong chuckled, "What's the matter? No matter whether it's true or not, if he dares to threaten me with Yu'er, I won't let him succeed. If he really only gave Yu'er [-] troops, Then even if I go to help out, there is a huge difference in the number of people, and I can't win. Why don't I go to Chen Yu's camp, I will make Shen Hexuan and Chen Yu pay the price, and I will let Feng Ye know that no one wants to manipulate me Yan Sikong!"

She Zhun felt chills running down his spine. He realized that the familiar Yan Sikong had really returned. He said, "What are you going to do? Are you going to destroy Chen Kui's army?"

"I don't know yet, but I know that I want power and a monarch who is easy to control. I used to always want to take one step and count ten steps, but then I found that I can count some things accurately, and I can't count others accurately. I can count accurately , Xu lost all games at No. 11. I can't count for sure. Xu turned the tables and won at the end. People don't go to the last moment. In fact, they don't know whether to win or lose. I can’t do anything. I’m homeless and tired, and I don’t care about anything now. I want to play this game of chess according to my own ideas, and try my best to make this game into what I want. If I lose, I will die.”

She Zhun said in a deep voice, "Sikong, you will get what you want."

Yan Sikong smiled lightly: "Why do you say that?"

"I have a hunch."

"I hope, there is actually a lot of difference if you don't get it, and you can't take it with you when you die."

She Zhun's expression was somewhat sad: "Since you have already made up your mind, I can only help you."

Yan Sikong felt ashamed: "She Zhun, you don't have to accompany me in danger anymore."

"What I did was not a business of my duty." She Zhun laughed at himself, "You can just give me enough money."

Yan Sikong frowned, and said softly: "I know that you helped me, it was never for money, where is your lack... When we were young, you and I depended on each other for life, if I didn't have you all these years, I would have died so many times, She Zhun, I don't know how to pay you back."

"You also saved me and avenged me. Between you and me, there is still talk about whether to pay back or not." She Zhun smiled wryly, "It's just, it's just that I thought that you and I have no relatives in this world. Yes, we are really dependent on each other, I didn't expect your brother to be alive, I should be happy for you, but..."

"You are my brother too." Yan Sikong said seriously, "She Zhun, you and Yu'er are both brothers whom I would risk my life for."

She Zhun was startled, and then showed that cynical smile again: "You listened to me say such sour words, but you didn't scold me a few words, I was so ashamed. Sikong, your brother is still alive, I really am I'm happy for you. You only had revenge in those years, and you disguised yourself layer by layer with ruthlessness, but I still know that you are a person who values ​​love and righteousness, otherwise I am not a fool, how could I be willing to help you, but..." He suddenly said seriously, "You must never have any entanglements with Feng Ye again, otherwise you will be really sorry for me."

Yan Sikong's heart tightened, and he seemed calm and calm: "Don't worry, I have settled with him. When he knows that I would rather go to Chen Kui than go back to him, he and I will be together." ...the enemy."

She Zhun can't be completely relieved, but as long as Yan Sikong doesn't go back to find Fengye, it's not the next choice, because he knows that apart from Fengye, it is impossible for Yan Sikong to fall in love with anyone else, especially Chen Kui, the ruthless Yan Sikong is the most powerful Yan Sikong, with the power of one person, it is enough to shake the universe.

"Then when do you plan to go to Chen Kui?"

"I can't go to Chen Kui, I want Chen Kui to come to me, to be precise, to rob me."

"……Rob?"

"Didn't Chen Yu play a trick against Fengye and me? Then I would do what he wanted and betray Fengye. But I have been a teacher and student with him for many years. He understands my temperament and knows that even if I leave Fengye, I also have resentment towards him, it is impossible to help him, if I take the initiative to find him, he will be suspicious."

"What are you going to do?"

During the conversation, the two had already walked back to the forest, looking at Ali who was waiting for them not far away, Yan Sikong said: "She Zhun, you can hide in the city and come and go without a trace, but Ali can't. This time when I go out of the mountain, I want no worries, I hope you will send Ali away. Then I will deliberately expose my whereabouts and attract Chen Yu's soldiers to arrest me."

She Zhun looked at Ali: "Yes, but I'm afraid he might not be willing to leave."

"If you don't want to, you have to agree."

Seeing that they had returned, Ali was relieved, and couldn't hide the joy on his face. He quickly jumped up and ran to them.

"I brought you food, you must be starving." Yan Sikong unpacked his luggage, "It's still warm, eat while it's hot."
