Madam, please listen to my explanation.

Chapter 37: What is safer than being the king of a country?
Snow night.

Shenning Palace.

My mother is dead.

Zhao Jingyu stared blankly at the pale-faced woman on the couch.

Her chest had not risen or fallen for a long time, and her body had become cold due to the cessation of blood circulation.

Until her death, there was still a trace of sadness between her brows.

The person she was waiting for never showed up until the end.

Ruoxi lay in front of her mother and sobbed.

Hearing footsteps behind her, she turned around suddenly and looked at herself.

she.
He must have been terrified.
sorry.
My brother failed to protect our mother.

Even when she was dying, she couldn't use her energy to prolong her life like other warriors.
But my brother is very good at killing people.
I will definitely protect you!
"like"

"Ugly freak, go away!!!"

Zhao Jingyu raised his hand and put it down tremblingly.

He lowered his head, not daring to look at the petite sister again.

Yes.

She must be scared by the way I am now.
Shen Ye came back to his senses.

It was as if I was back to that snowy night ten years ago.

The two faces completely overlapped before my eyes.

Only the little girl with a baby voice has grown into a big girl.

She has her own ideas, so why should I interfere?

What is holy and what is not.

I just hope she's happy.

Shen Ye turned his head away and said with a wry smile:

"Ruoxi, don't cry, it's my fault, brother..."

Zhao Ruoxi grabbed his arm and shook her head vigorously:

"I'm sorry, bro."

My own comfort had no effect at all.

Shen Ye smiled bitterly, intending to make the other person happy:
"Don't cry. If your eyes get swollen from crying, it won't look good like your brother's."

Unexpectedly, upon hearing these words, Ruoxi cried even harder.
Did you mess up again?
It's as useless as ever.
Just when I was at a loss, I heard the other party say:
"Brother, no matter what you become, you will always be Ruoxi's brother Jingyu."

She forced a smile and patted her ordinary little chest and said:
"Brother, there's no need to feel disappointed. It's just a saint. I can easily train your sister!"

Shen Ye chuckled.

He had forgotten how long it had been since he had been so happy.

Just as he was about to answer, his ear moved slightly, and he suddenly snorted coldly:
"Come out!"

Xu Jinhuan walked out from behind a tree and scratched his head.

"Um. Don't bother me?

I can wait a little longer."

He didn't really want to disturb the brother and sister from recognizing each other.

After all, although they are royal relatives, the fate of this pair of brothers and sisters is
Not very good indeed.

But since they have been discovered, hiding from others doesn’t seem to make sense.
"Wow! Xu Jinhuan!
They bullied me!"

The young sapling cried aggrievedly, and its two long branches swayed back and forth.

Xu Jinhuan walked over and rubbed the other person's slightly rough head:
"Well, not a single leaf is missing, why are you crying?
Collect it, I’ll tell you another story later.”

"No! It's a deal!"

Shen Ye's face became increasingly gloomy.

Why is this kid so lenient all the time?
It is said that there is something unclear with that mistress.
wrong
Isn’t there a Gu Niaoniao in Kyoto?
"Hey, brother-in-law, what's with that expression on your face?"

"Bah! Who are you calling brother-in-law? Lecher!"

Shen Ye ignored his sister's roar and looked at the sapling coldly.

Unlike this silly sister, with his vision, he could naturally see that the bronze sacred tree where this blue phoenix spirit resided was definitely not an ordinary one.

Given time, it might be possible for it to transform into a human!
"Xu Jinhuan, I remember telling you that if Ruoxi loses a hair, I'll make you pay! Since you cut off that man's hand, I'll let you off the hook this time.

If it happens again, don't blame me for being ruthless with my sword!"

Xu Jinhuan of course knew what the other party meant, and nodded with a smile:

"Natural, natural."

"My patience is limited, I can't wait seven days.

Where is your lousy master? I'll go find him myself."

"Brother Shen, please be patient."

Xu Jinhuan's face was full of black lines.

My brother-in-law has a hot temper.
It seems that he is planning to rush to Ning Caixie and put the sword on his neck to have a good talk.
“If something changes, it won’t take seven days, three at most.

Please wait a moment."

Shen Ye's tone was firm, and he would not tolerate any refusal. "No room for negotiation."

"If Mr. Ning knows what's best for him, he'll start treating him right away.

If he doesn't know what's best for him, I'll beat him until he knows what's best for him."

"I didn't mean to stop Brother Shen, and I do know where that old man is.

But if you wait another three days, I might have an extra surprise for you two."

Shen Ye raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

This kid has a lot of clever ideas and never does anything without a purpose.

But for him, there are not many things in this world that can be called surprises.

"tell me the story."

Xu Jinhuan stretched out a finger:
“This is the first one.

In addition to curing His Highness's illness, I would also like to give him Zhao Jingqian's head as a gift. What do you think?"

Shen Ye was obviously stunned.

Seeing that the brother and sister opposite him were interested, Xu Jinhuan struck while the iron was hot and continued:
"As for the second one
Since you have taken Zhao Jingqian's head, why not take the throne as well?
Is it for those little babbling kids?"

Shen Ye's face immediately turned dark:
"Just do your own thing and don't bother with me!"

"Brother-in-law misunderstood again!

I'm not talking about you."

He pointed at Zhao Ruoxi standing beside him and said, "Who said that women can't be emperors?"

Shen Ye's eyes shifted suspiciously between his sister and Xu Jinhuan.

Different from myself.

Ruoxi seemed not surprised at all by the other party's fantastic statement.
She already knew it!

"Brother Shen, I know you are always worried about your sister.

This is the only way to keep your sword heart steady and do what you want to do.
In the final analysis, isn't it just that you're worried that she might be in danger and you can't rescue her in the first place?

But, can you protect her forever?"

Xu Jinhuan scratched his nose and whispered:

"Just like this time, you were just in seclusion, and your sister was kidnapped for no apparent reason."

Are you embarrassed to mention it? !
Shen Ye narrowed his eyes slightly.

He didn't know who was the force behind this kid.

But he does seem to know a lot of secrets.
“You are so naive.

Do you know who built the defensive formation in Yanjing?

How many masters of the celestial realm are guarding the deep palace?

Not to mention that he has the Dragon Qi of the Son of Heaven within him, as long as Zhao Jingqian doesn't leave Kyoto, he can be on par with the Supreme Saint."

"so what?"

Xu Jinhuan didn't allow him to continue.

"I have my own way to deal with Zhao Jingqian's problem. I promised to take his head, and I will never go back on my word!"

"Brother Shen, instead of trying so hard to protect her, why don't you try every possible way to make her stronger?
Since it is as you said.
Is there anything in this world that is safer than being the ruler of a country?"
