Death Princess

Snapped!Heizi entered the game and killed the entire white dragon with one click.

"My daughter lost." Zhao Lu threw the white pieces back into the box and lowered her head.

"Luer, if you don't care about the game, you will lose." Chao Qing slowly rolled up her sleeves and cleaned up the chessboard.

"Daughter...knows my mistake." Zhao Lu put on an appearance of bowing her head and admitting her mistake.

"You know what's wrong?" Chaoqing felt a little headache from her daughter's appearance of not getting any food, rice, oil and salt, so she had to stop her movements and said seriously, "Forget it, since you don't care about chess, then I'll come and chat with Luer How about talking about what's on your mind?"

Chao Lu's eyebrows trembled imperceptibly.

"Hui'er has been back, I know." Zhao Qing took a sip of tea and continued, "I also know what you brothers and sisters are doing now and what you will do in the future. So, I know Hui'er better. Why don't you dare to come see me and your mother."

"Father..." Zhao Lu shrank her neck, and put on a coquettish tone.

"Foretelling dreams, you can do it, Hui'er can do it, but your mother and I can do it too." On a rare occasion, Chaoqing ignored her daughter's initiative to show weakness.

"Then... what did Dad dream about?" Seeing Zhaoqing's determination to preach, Zhaolu had no choice but to listen obediently. After all, during the years when her brother Zhaohui became Qin Hui and left home Chaolu alone was responsible for all the saliva that father and mother gave to the siblings, not too much, not too much, but this time is not bad.

"Not at all." Chaoqing raised her eyelids.

"..."

"But the more there is no warning, the more your mother and I are..."

"Father..."

"Luer, let me ask you one more time, for the last time," Chao Qing cut off Chao Lu's words, "You, you guys, really decided to embark on such a road? Your mother and I spent half our lives to escape from it, and now you But you want to step in by yourself? That's imperial power, not a trifling matter. It's too late to stop now, once you get involved in the center of the vortex, there will only be four words left: winner and loser. It will no longer be just you.”

"I understand." Zhao Lu also became serious, "But Lingzu, Uncle Palm, Yi'er..."

"This matter has nothing to do with the Spirit Race, and it has nothing to do with Eldest Brother, but Yi'er is different from you!" Chao Qing cut off Chao Lu's words again, "The survival and death of the Spirit Race should not be borne by you juniors; Eldest Brother's deathbed entrustment should have been irrelevant. This intention is entirely due to the intentions of the listeners; and Yi'er's choice is Yi'er's, Yi'er is the princess of Changping specially appointed by His Majesty today, and we are just common people, she is not our child, you and Hui'er are! To be selfish, as parents, we don't want you and Hui'er to meddle in Yi'er's affairs!"

Zhao Lu lowered her head.

After Zhaoqing took a deep breath, he said, "No matter what restraint, no reason, and no matter the outcome, you and I just want to know what kind of thoughts you are thinking in your heart, whether this move is really from your heart, whether you succeed or fail not regret."

All around, suddenly fell into silence.

After a long time, "Yu Xin, I don't regret it." These four words are categorical, this is Zhao Lu's and Zhao Hui's answer. "It is precisely because I have seen the ugliness in the depths of the imperial power with my own eyes, and I have personally experienced the bloody night, the ruthless killing of the flesh and blood, and the innocent children being turned into killing tools, so I want to change."

"Father may think that my daughter is reckless as a teenager, and she is beyond her own capabilities. My daughter also understands that some things cannot be changed by herself, and some things can never be eliminated, but my daughter does not want to make herself regret. Escape may be possible. Keep the peace for the rest of your life, but there will be endless troubles; although the progress is full of thorns, life and death are unpredictable, but you can take the initiative, never troubles, no regrets, no more shame."

"Okay," Zhao Qing breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly ordered, "Kneel down!"

With a plop, Chao Lu knelt down beside the chess table like a stubborn bull.

. . .

"Kneel down!" A strange voice resounded through the courtyard, leading Leng Tong over.

Liu Lu knelt straight in front of a man in Tsing Yi, this was the first scene Leng Tong saw after approaching.Liu Lu, who has always been unruly, knelt down obediently, which really made Leng Tong quite concerned, but what she cared more about was the man sitting beside the chess table.

That man, let's call him a man, judging from his demeanor, he should be approaching his age, but judging from his appearance, he seems to be standing upright.What's more, he was clearly dressed in men's clothing, and his mannerisms were full of masculinity, but he had a face that even women envied.Looking at his breath again, it seems that his inner strength is unfathomable, and he seems to have been seriously injured for a long time, but it seems that he has already transcended life and death, penetrated life, and saw through the world.

"You, really don't regret it?" At this moment, the man spoke.

Even though they were far apart, Leng Tong still felt a sudden pressure from Mount Tai.

This man must not be simple, he is... Who is he?What is the relationship with Liu Lu?

Could it be?Leng Tong thought of the rumors in Jianghu about the elusive master of the Sword Sect.It's him?Could it be him?The master of Sword Sect?Chaolu's father, Chaoqing?Then why is he here, and why does he treat Liu Lu like this?

"No, sorry." Liu Lu uttered a few words with difficulty, "I've made up my mind."

The coercion pervading the entire courtyard became more and more intense, and Leng Tong's legs trembled uncontrollably.But the little guard named Liu Lu was still kneeling straight without shaking.

After a while, just as Leng Tong was about to fall against the wall, the coercion suddenly disappeared.

"That's all, it's up to you." The man stood up shaking his robe, flicked the chess piece at his fingertips, and the chess piece landed at Leng Tong's feet.The chess piece turned and turned on the ground, and it burned out of thin air. After a while, it turned into a pool of black ashes.Leng Tong was stunned.

"Eavesdropping is not a good habit."

Leng Tong subconsciously turned around and punched the source of the sound, but the fist she swung seemed to be smashed into cotton. When she looked carefully, she found that her fist was directly penetrating the opponent. After the body, it returned to the front of the eyes completely, but the other party was unscathed.Leng Tong rubbed his eyes in astonishment, his head seemed a little dizzy.

Just when Leng Tong was in a cold sweat and was about to think about his next move, the man who was still in the gazebo had already arrived in front of Leng Tong.Leng Tong froze in place.

The man nodded to the woman standing behind Leng Tong just now, and then swept his gaze over Leng Tong's body inch by inch.Wherever the gaze passed, it seemed that all the camouflage of Leng Tong had been stripped away, and through her body, she directly looked into the bottom of her heart.

"Are you Leng Tong?" The man asked with a frown.

"...Yes." Leng Tong waited for a long time before he could spit out this word.

"I really have a bit of your father and mother's shadow." The man and the woman left together.

After the two sources of coercion left, Leng Tong completely forgot to find out the meaning of the man's words when he left.

. . .

"Hey," Zhao Qing said after seeing that he had left the small courtyard and stepped out of the illusion barrier set by his daughter, "These two children, Luer Huier. If anything goes wrong with them, I really don't know what to do Facing the spirits of my uncle and aunt in heaven. I don’t know if it was a mistake to record them in our name and let them get acquainted with the eldest brother’s family.”

"Qing'er," Liu Yanxue patted Chaoqing's shoulder lightly, "children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Don't you often tell me? They are no longer children. They have their own ideas and choices. Of course, let me leave them alone."

"But... only this matter..."

"Everything has not yet come to fruition, how can you know that it is not a blessing? Lu'er and Hui'er are not ordinary children, we parents should always trust them. Besides," Liu Yanxue turned around slowly, and turned her eyes to the girl again. Xiaoyuan said, "We are not ordinary parents. Even if something happens to them, you and I will do our best to protect them, and we will surely keep them safe for the rest of their lives."

"That's right." Chaoqing also followed his wife's gaze and looked, "Hey, the child is getting older and his wings are hardened. It's time to fly out. Let them go, let them go."

"Go out and run around, they are more than just going out and running around." Liu Yanxue's tone relaxed, "You still hide it for them, how many things they have done behind my back, you think I really don't know? You The fathers also followed suit, now it’s better, help and help to the point where I can’t control myself anymore.”

"No way..." Chao Qing shrank her neck and touched the back of her head, "I didn't hide anything from you."

"Lu'er wanders through the maze and wanders in the rivers and lakes, and Hui'er enters the court and becomes an official and a prince." Liu Yanxue glared at Chaoqing, "All of them are hidden from my mother, and I don't know that they are hiding everything. Fault, from whom did you learn it." Once again, he gave Chaoqing a slap in the face.

"Ahahaha," Chaoqing's neck tightened even more, "Yes, who taught it."

"That's right, who is it?" Liu Yanxue drew the end of her voice, "Who kept it from me back then and died by himself?"

"Eh ha ha ha, these are all old things, I hope Yan'er don't care, don't care."

. . .

Zhao Lu was still kneeling, tightly clutching the thing her father gave her before he left.That blood-colored jade pendant is the same as that given to Zhaohui by Uncle Palm eight years ago, the only difference is that the word on the letter is no longer "Palm" but "Hibiscus".

Poor parents all over the world, even if they disapprove or worry, they will pave the way for their children to leave home and build a bridge for their children to return home.This blood-colored jade pendant is extremely dangerous, but it is also Chaoqing and Liu Yanxue's recognition, support and letting go of their children.

Whether it's a blessing, a curse, a life-threatening jade or a life-saving talisman, it all depends on the user.Thinking of this, Zhao Lu safely put the jade pendant into her arms.

Footsteps came from behind, and Zhao Lu knew who was coming without turning her head, but she still knelt and did not respond.

"Are you... all right?" Leng Tong asked hesitantly, "Who...is he?"

Chao Lu turned her head, stood up, patted her knees, and put on an angry expression, "Who is he? Who else can he be? Who else can I kneel down on my knees honestly?"

"Sword sect... suzerain?" Leng Tong asked tentatively.

"Hmph!" Zhao Lu didn't answer directly, but turned around and grabbed Leng Tong's hand, saying, "Let's go!" Pulling Leng Tong, she left.

"Where are you going?" Leng Tong was confused by Chao Lu's sudden movement.

"Where else can I go, go for a stroll outside, kneel down here and get angry, go shopping and get some fresh air."

"what?"

go out?Did you hear me right, she wants to take herself out?Now that the assassination of the young master of the Sword Sect was fruitless, he was still terrified, and his whereabouts were unknown. According to Yu Ange, his life and death were uncertain, and the Ange was so anxious that he used all his eyeliner to stare at Lingzhou until a fly flew by. Check it out, just wait for yourself or someone from Jianzong to show up.

What does she mean by taking herself out at this time?

Isn't she afraid that she will be watched by the secret cabinet as soon as she goes out, and she will find an opportunity to surround her, to kill the grass and root out the troubles forever, or to hold back Chaolu as a hostage?Or, her purpose is to lure out the people from the dark pavilion?

But no matter what the reason and purpose, as a prisoner, Leng Tong did not have the right to refuse her.

Let Chaoqing and Liu Yanxue come out to create a sense of existence~
