Seeking peace

Chapter 37 Trees can be reborn, what about people?

An Ning said: "I think, I want to marry, of course I want to marry Li Zhan! Will the emperor let me go?"

An Ning just wanted to leave, saying that she wanted to marry was a lie.

But Yun Qi didn't know.

An Ning's words are undoubtedly a death sentence for Yun Qi.

The last bit of strength was drained from his body.

An Ning's answer was decisive and resolute.

Without the slightest hesitation.

You can even see the joy on her face.

The answer is obvious enough.

What else can Yun Qi say?
After a while, Yun Qi staggered and turned his head, and walked out slowly.

Looking at the back of Yun Qi going away, An Ning had the illusion that he was deeply stabbed by herself.

But only for a moment.

What Yun Qi thinks is no longer what An Ning would consider.

Yun Qi left Taoyuan Residence.

With frivolous steps, as if stepping on clouds, he stumbled back to his bedroom.

An Ning thought that Yun Qi would never come to see her for lunch like this.

In the end, at lunch time, Yun Qi still came and ate with An Ning as usual.

An Ning didn't know what Yun Qi was so obsessed with every day.

An Ning forgot that she told Yun Qi a long time ago that she wanted to eat with him every day in the future, even if it was a simple meal, it would be delicious.

The dinner table was very peaceful, as if the previous conversation had never happened, and the matter of Li Zhan seeking to marry An Ning did not exist.

An Ning didn't know what mood Yun Qi had in coming back to eat this lunch with her.

After lunch, Yun Qi took An Ning out of the palace and went to An Guogong's mansion.

Yun Qi let An Ning meet her sister and brother-in-law.

The family is reunited, and Yun Qi seems out of place.

Yun Qi didn't disturb them, he stood in the courtyard and waited.

An Ning saw Yun Qi under the peach blossom tree in the courtyard through the window.

This perspective, this scene, seems like a world away.

Once upon a time, she had seen Yun Qi like this.

At that time, the peach blossoms were like rain.

At that time, his smile was warm and so was his heart.

At that time, she only had eyes for him.

This season, the peach blossoms are gone, but the trees bear fruit.

Noticing An Ning's gaze, An Yi said to An Ning, "During the fire, the tree burned down. Unexpectedly, it sprouted new shoots later, and it was rejuvenated. Now five years have passed, and it looks so lush again."

Trees can regenerate, what about people?

Most of the peach trees that have been burned can be revived.

What about An Ning whose hands and feet have been severed?
"If the tree core doesn't die, it can be reborn." An Ning replied.

If the core is alive, it will be able to live.

If you die, you will die.

Half an hour later, An Ning came to the courtyard.

Yun Qi heard footsteps and turned to meet An Ning's gaze.

After many years, they stood facing each other again under the revived peach tree.

Yun Qi took a step forward unconsciously.

Just as he was about to approach, he was interrupted by An Ning's indifferent words.

"You don't think this situation reminds me of anything, do you?" An Ning said.

Yun Qi's footsteps stopped.

"This tree is not the original one. The original one is dead. It was replaced by my brother-in-law and sister. Some things are dead when they are dead, and they are gone when they are gone. Doing something meaningless It won't change anything, it will only attract resentment." An Ning said.

Yun Qi's body stiffened for a while.

Then slowly asked: "Ten years, has it passed?"

An Ning turned away her face, "It's all gone, ten years is nothing, it's no match for God's will, no match for imperial power after all."
