Chapter 259 Give Him One Night
The night was filled with darkness, and dark clouds covered the sky, blocking out the bright moon in the sky.
The two people under the palace lanterns looked inexplicably gloomy.
Su Jixue's peach blossom eyes were quiet at the moment, her dark pupils staring directly at the War King opposite her. The upturned corners of her eyes did not have much charm at the moment, and her silence made people feel distressed.
The War King's fingers, which were originally tapping the armrest, paused, and his slender jade-like fingers gently rested on the armrest of the wheelchair. His pair of icy eyes, which had always been cold and hidden, were now bottomless, and for the first time, they contained an expression that Su Jixue found difficult to understand.
"It's too sudden." The War King said lightly.
Regardless of whether Princess Fengyi is still alive, or Ji Xue is actually the child of Empress Dowager Xie, or even worse, the two of them are very likely siblings.
These things were beyond the War King's expectations and very sudden.
So the impact is particularly great.
"It seems that you really care." Su Jixue could see the difference in King Zhan. The look in his eyes when he looked at her was more complicated than ever before.
"Axue..." The War King lowered his eyes, unable to say that he didn't care.
Silence spread between the two.
At this moment, Beisu pushed Zongkui out of the imperial study. When he saw this scene in the distance, the malice in Zongkui's eyes increased.
Therefore, no matter how much he said he didn't care in front of him, the War King actually still cared in his heart.
"The master is indeed powerful." Bei Su has always been blindly confident in Zong Kui. When he saw the two people in the distance, Bei Su stopped.
Su Jixue and Zhan Wang, are they in a confrontation?
Sure enough, the master was right.
"Who in their right mind would marry a brother and sister?!" Zong Kui couldn't help but sneer, not to mention that there was hatred between them for killing their mother and destroying their clan.
It was normal that Ji Xue didn't understand these things. After all, she had never understood what relatives were, and she had no idea what the concept of family was.
Not to mention any family feud.
But these things that Ji Xue did not understand were engraved in the bones of the War King.
The King of War can risk his life for Ji Xue, but what if it is revenge for his mother's murder, or hatred for the extermination of his clan?
Can those who have been carrying these things, let them go?
Zong Kui knew how the War King was captured and brought to the Great Desolate Mountain, and how many people had died in the process. However, the boy who was brought to the Great Desolate Mountain showed no signs of impulse. Instead, his cold, piercing eyes, like blades, remembered the perpetrators one by one.
The War King is actually more vengeful than Ji Xue.
Zhan Wang and Su Jixue are indeed like a mortise and tenon structure that fits perfectly together, and no one can interfere.
So, if there is a problem, it is only their own fault.
And now, Zong Kui is creating this conflict between the two of them.
"But Ji Xue is not Empress Dowager Xie and..." Bei Su spoke in a low voice, but shut up in time when he got to the key point.
In fact, everyone who knew about what happened back then was silenced.
But those who participated in this plan and are still alive will never speak.
Because after all, he just wanted to use the bloodline to find a sacrifice for the Zong family.
In the end, Ji Xue did help Zong Kui change his fate.
"Shhh."
Zong Kui signaled Bei Su to shut up. After all, as long as he didn't say anything, no one would know the truth of that year.
And now, Zong Kui's words were actually slowly taking effect. He looked meaningfully at the brown silhouette in front of him. There was nothing more interesting than seeing the rift between these two people.
This made Zong Kui even feel that the poison in his body didn't seem to be that painful anymore.
In the darkness of the night, the War King seemed to feel that the silence at this moment was a bit oppressive. He raised his eyes and looked at Su Jixue: "One night."
Su Jixue opened her eyes and looked at the War King quietly: "Tonight, or tomorrow night?"
In fact, they both understood each other's meaning without saying much.
The War King needs a night to figure this out.
She just wanted to know which night it was.
"Tonight." The War King's fingers began to tap the armrest of the wheelchair again, and the light in his eyes changed. It seemed that he had begun to seriously think about how to deal with this matter.
He patted Su Jixue's hand gently with his other hand: "Trust me!"
The turbulent emotions in the War King's narrow, icy eyes had slowly returned to normal, and his eyes softened as he looked at Su Jixue.
Although Su Jixue was not much different from before, Zhan Wang could see Su Jixue's concern and tension.
It was such a dark night and the situation was like this. If Su Jixue didn't care, she wouldn't stop.
"I've always believed." Su Jixue's response was indifferent, but her eyes, which had been a little cold, finally became gentle at this moment.
Because from beginning to end, King Zhan never let Su Jixue down.
From the past to the present, there has never been such a thing.
So, she believed him.
If Su Jixue didn't believe it, she would never have stopped to ask such a question at this moment.
Because we believe, we want to know what the other person is thinking.
Because if there is a rift between them because of their past identities, or the sins that their past identities should not have borne, this is something Su Jixue does not want to see.
Su Jixue could accept that there was a gap between them because she did not recognize Zhan Wang, or because he killed her in the Battle of Gu'an.
After all, when she didn't know that the War King was Eleven, Su Jixue, who had always been righteous, felt a little guilty when she saw the War King again.
But those things never created any rift between them. If Zong Kui's instigation planted a thorn between them, Su Jixue would be unwilling to accept it.
"Let's go." Su Jixue pushed Zhan Wang forward again, but after taking two steps, she suddenly looked back, and her cold eyes pierced directly into Zong Kui's heart under the eaves of the brightly lit imperial study through the distant night.
At this moment, Zong Kui felt a real pain in his heart.
That was Su Jixue's undisguised murderous intent.
It's like looking at a dead person.
Such strong hatred had not been seen in front of the Golden Palace, but at this moment, it was so strong that it was frightening.
This shows that Su Jixue cares about this matter.
"Master." Bei Su raised his foot to block in front of Zong Kui with some concern, but was pushed away by Zong Kui.
Zong Kui raised the corner of his mouth coldly, revealing malice: "This shows that there is really a problem between them."
Even the darkness could not conceal the gloating look on Zongkui's face.
Bei Su's eyebrows jumped, and he finally felt relieved after Su Jixue withdrew her gaze, but he still looked worried: "Master, what if she doesn't save you?"
Beisu still can't figure out whether Su Jixue will save his master.
Zong Kui, however, looked confident of victory at this moment: "Do you think, with her personality, if she didn't want to save me, she would say so much nonsense in the Golden Palace?!"
The War King doesn’t talk much, and actually Ji Xue doesn’t talk much either.
These two people are very similar. They would rather take action than talk.
But in the court of Dongchu, Su Jixue said a lot.
"So..." Bei Su's eyes lit up and he was about to speak when he was interrupted by Zong Kui.
"So do you think she is unable to let go of me?" Zong Kui looked at the figure disappearing in the night ahead and asked a question that was difficult for Bei Su to answer.
