"I want to know, is the Ah Liang I know still alive? I want to know, is the current Ah Liang standing on the edge of a cliff?"

After finishing these few words, I looked up at him for a long time, I waited for him to answer me, waited for him to tell me the cause and effect, and waited for him to tell me that he was still willing to rein in the precipice.

He didn't answer me, but looked at me critically, "What do you know? Who told you?"

I know that if I don't speak out today, I'm afraid he won't admit it.

"No one told me, I saw it with my own eyes."

He held my hand instead, "You've been there long ago? Have you seen it?"

"Yes." I answered him like this, "So, why did your eyes turn into vertical pupils? Where did you learn how to deal with Fujiwara Hideko?"

"A Li lied. You weren't there at the time. But I'm still very happy that A Li would come to my side because of worry. You came to accompany me, didn't you?"

The coldness on his body dissipated, and the smile on his lips became gentle again, but the gloom in his eyes never dissipated from the beginning to the end.

Me: "Don't evade my question, tell me, where did you learn it?"

"A Li is afraid that I will kill innocent people indiscriminately?" He still avoided answering, but began to assure me, "I know that A Li is kind, don't worry, I have never killed any innocent people, and I will never kill any innocent people. No, no matter what you hear or see, don't doubt me, Ah Li, I only have you."

After he finished speaking, he lowered his head again and hugged me tightly in his arms.

So I get it, he's not going to tell me the answer.He looks gentle, but he is actually a very stubborn person. Once he decides something, he will never change it easily.He doesn't want to say it, even if I pry his heart open today, he still won't say it.

Just like Minamoto Raimiko said, Ah Liang has already made a choice and made up his mind, whether I come or not, it doesn't help the matter.

It was me who overestimated myself.

I suddenly felt more tired and disheartened than ever before.

I pushed him away, wanting to step back, but his arms were tightly wrapped around my waist, no matter how hard I struggled, he would not let go.

"Let me go. Since you have nothing to do, then treat it as a waste of time for me to come here. I am overthinking. From now on, I won't take care of your affairs anymore. Let's get well each other."

Ah Liang panicked all of a sudden, "Ah Li, don't be angry, don't go, don't go, okay?"

I took a deep breath, and I didn't need to think about what my expression was like, "Ah Liang, I still have my own affairs to deal with. Since you don't need me, let me go."

He still didn't let go, so I simply used a lightning spell to hit his arm.

I just want to scare him to let go, but the hateful thing is, this guy knows that I'm going to attack, he still doesn't dodge or avoid, even refuses to defend.

His arm was wounded by a lightning spell, blood trickled down his sleeve, and fell to the ground drop by drop.

I gritted my teeth angrily, "You're crazy! Won't you let go? Won't you avoid it?"

"I won't let go, let go of Ah Li and leave, and will never come to me again." There was a crystal tear in the corner of his eyes, he was so pitiful.

My heart softened instantly, but I was helpless by his stubbornness and tears, "A Liang, I am here to accompany you, and I want to help you bear the burden. I am not afraid that you will kill innocent people indiscriminately or make What hurts others, what I'm afraid of is that what you do is hurting yourself. If you promise me that you won't hurt innocent people, can you promise me that you won't hurt yourself?"

Ah Liang: "..."

I showed a bitter smile, "So, are you really going to hurt yourself, or have you already paid a heavy price?"

Ah Liang's lips moved, I could see that he wanted to say something to me, but in the end, he still couldn't say it.

Is it irreparable?

"What's going on?" I don't know how many times, I repeated this question again.

Ah Liang just shed tears and refused to give me an answer.

I tried to push him away, but I was really mad at him!

Finally, Ah Liang let go of my waist, and he knelt in front of me, holding my legs tightly with his arms, like a child who is afraid of being abandoned, "Don't go, Ah Li, don't go. I need yours , I only have you, all I want is you... A Li, don't go... Aren't you, aren't you afraid that I will hurt yourself? Then you will stay by my side and stare at me every day Me, look at me, as long as you are here, I will be fine, you stay, okay, okay? Please, don't go..."

I couldn't help crying, but there was nothing I could do.

I didn't really want to leave, I just wanted to scare him and let him tell me the truth, but in the end, I still lost.

I stayed by Ah Liang's side.

I want to guard him, watch him, I am afraid that something will happen to him.

But for several days, nothing happened.

He has been very happy these days, and every time he looks at me, he will smile from the bottom of his heart.I can't remember how long it's been since he smiled like this.

He didn't return to Heianjing, and he didn't have a clear destination. He seemed to be taking me on a tour of the mountains and rivers.

He will take me to watch the fascinating scenery, take me to taste the amazing food, and also give me all kinds of weird little gifts, each of which is obtained by him.

Every time I just smiled, he would feel extremely satisfied, and I felt helpless later, so I might as well go out to play with him.These years, he is too tired, let him relax.

After playing enough, he will take me to catch monsters, and then seal them, and let me exchange them for bounties.In just half a month, we caught more than 20 monsters, and the most powerful one was comparable to Shuten-douji. I didn't know him, and I didn't even know his name, because he hadn't had time to get himself. When he reported to the house, he was beaten down by Ah Liang and sealed into the talisman paper.

I'm a little curious why he shot so fast and didn't even give the other party a chance to speak.

But he told me, "I don't want A Li to waste time on these insignificant monsters. During this time, I want A Li to stay with me all the time, look at me, and only see me."

I:"......"

He looked at me speechless, and smiled brightly and slyly.

But thanks to him, I have almost 1000 taels of silver in my hand.

I feel so rich!

But life can't go on like this forever, so I found a chance, and I still asked him, "Aren't you planning to go back to Heianjing? Are you going to ignore your parents, your family, and your marriage contract? "

A Liang put away the smile on her face, her voice was faint, showing a bit of helplessness, "A Li, haven't you seen it all? Fujiwara Hideko... now she is just a puppet obeying my orders, that's all. I will use her skin, and I will use the Fujiwara family to help me do something, but that marriage contract, it will always be just a marriage contract, I will not fulfill it, I will find a suitable opportunity in the future, and I will let 'Fujiwara Hideko die' , so the engagement will be terminated naturally. Don't worry, the only person I want to marry in this life is A Li, if A Li refuses to marry me, I will marry no one, and I will die alone forever."

He really is getting better at speaking.Recently, he let go of those scruples, and his words became more and more bold, daring to say anything, which is not at all like the reserved look he used to blushing shyly.

When I think of that 'Fujiwara Hideko', I feel very awkward. What are those snakes that got into her body?

"Where is she now? I haven't seen her recently."

A Liang: "I sent shikigami to send 'her' back to Heian-kyo, 'she' would tell the Fujiwara family that she was ambushed by monsters and all the shikigami died, but I acted righteously and rescued her. I lost her. Eiko Fujiwara's parents should be grateful to me right now."

Seeing that he no longer shy away from these topics, but was willing to open up and tell me his plans and deployments, I secretly breathed a sigh of relief.It seems that the company these days is still useful.So I am going to make persistent efforts and ask him more.

"Is it that easy? Her parents are the people who know her best, don't they doubt it?"

A Liang chuckled, her eyes were cold and indifferent, "You are wrong, her parents may not be as familiar with her as the servants around her. In fact, Fujiwara Hideko's position in the family is also very delicate. Her status is precious, but the Fujiwara family really cares about her." There are not many of her people. Besides, my puppetry is not the same as ordinary ones, don't worry, no one will be able to see through."

I nodded and asked him again, "Then what are your plans for the future?"

I don't believe that he can really travel leisurely with me all the time.

"A Li wants to go back to Ping An Jing?" He looked at me nervously.

I shook my head, "No. But you can't really never go back, can you?"

"If I give up everything, is A Li willing to be with me for the rest of my life? I don't want anything, I don't care about anything, I just want A Li."

He took my hand and said very earnestly.

I know what he said is true.

But I also know that this is impossible.This may be his true wish, but he has come to where he is today, and many things cannot be stopped if he wants to.He is saying this now, he should just be testing me, and wants me to give him a clear attitude that will make him feel at ease.

So I nodded, "Okay, we don't care about anything, and just live in seclusion in the mountains."

Ah Liang was taken aback, as if he didn't expect me to nod so easily.So much so that his next words were interrupted by my nod.

Sure enough, in this situation, even if I can let go of everything, he can't let go.

He gritted his teeth and made a choice almost instantly, "Okay! But A Li wants to give me a little more time, I still have some things to do. When I finish everything, we will leave."

I laughed and didn't embarrass him.

On the contrary, his face turned red, and he was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to do, "A Li, what I said is true, I didn't lie to you. When everything is over, if you are still willing to come with me by then, I... .We still have the right to take you away, so we will go."

When he said this, his voice trembled uncontrollably.

I raised my hand to caress his face, and asked softly, "Ah Liang, what are you afraid of?"

"I'm afraid of death. After I die, I will never see Ah Li again." He hugged me so tightly that it seemed that he was really afraid of death and separation.

I did not speak again.

After he finally calmed down, he told me his next plan.

"Let's go to Xingyuan City." He said with a smile, "I prepared a gift for you over there. You mustn't refuse it."

What he said was very mysterious and successfully aroused my curiosity.

Since I left Xingyuan last time, I haven't stepped into this city for a long time.

But I never imagined that the surprise A Liang said to me turned out to be—Xingyuan City!

He wants to give me Xingyuan City? ? ?

I looked at the great seal of the city lord he handed me, and felt that all of this was extraordinarily miraculous, unbelievable!

Especially when just entering the city, the people and guards stood on both sides of the city gate corridor, kneeling together to welcome the city lord.

At that time, I was stunned. The scene was so big that I have already arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, but I haven't reacted yet.

Seeing that I was still unwilling to accept it, Ah Liang took my hand and handed over the seal of the city lord to my hand, "A Li, do you like this great gift I gave you?"

I looked at the seal of the city lord in my hand and felt extremely speechless.

"Ah Liang, when did you become the owner of Xingyuan?"

Ah Liang said, "It was just last month. I haven't had time to tell you yet, but I want to surprise you. His Majesty the Emperor personally issued a decree to give me this city."

"For you? Isn't it for He Mao's family?"

"Yes, give it to me, it has nothing to do with the He Mao family. This city is now my private property, so I want to give it to A Li, no one can say anything."

He spoke confidently and firmly.

But I still feel that this big seal is very hot. This is a city. He doesn't know how much he paid to get it. How can he just give it to me now?

Besides, for such a big matter, how could the He Mao family allow him to make his own decisions?

"If I remember correctly, the He Mao family doesn't even have a city of their own, right?"

The top aristocratic families in Heian-kyo all have their own cities, just like Genji’s vassal city is Nara Castle, and Xingyuan used to belong to other noble families, but with the death of the former city lord, that noble family was destroyed. lost.

Although the He Mao family has produced a large number of talents over the years, their foundation is still shallow, so they have never been able to obtain the city that belongs to their own family.

The previous Xingyuan city lord was killed by me, and a large part of the aftermath of Xingyuan city was done by A Liang. It can be said that A Liang's subordinates and eyeliners are all over the place from top to bottom.Even if the city is clearly not given to him, but secretly, no matter who it is given to, it is afraid that it will not be able to escape A Liang's control.
