Girl, let me check it out.

Uncle Zhang reluctantly came over but still did not take off his mask.

It seems that I still can’t trust the people around me.

Fang Weihan thought about it and suddenly felt a little sad.

"It's okay, it's just a small favor, you're welcome."

He turned and looked at Tao Yunjiang.

The girl's eyes were red, and she looked like she wanted to come over to support him but didn't dare to, with traces of tears on her face.

"Now can you tell me what organization you are?"

Fang Weihan asked.

When the words fell, there was a silence echoing.

Tao Yunjiang opened his mouth, but in the end said nothing.

"I'm sorry, Your Highness, this matter is top secret. We cannot disclose it to you."

Uncle Zhang's tone was slightly apologetic.

"I'll ask them to go away. Can you tell me?"

Fang Weihan asked again.

He was answered by another silence.

Sometimes, silence is also an attitude.

Fang Weihan smiled bitterly.

"Even if I saved you?"

He looked at Tao Yunjiang and spoke again persistently.

"……Feel sorry."

Uncle Zhang was silent for a moment, then bowed again.

Fang Weihan let out a long sigh, raised his head, and felt dizzy. He could not help but take two steps back before he could steady himself with the help of Master Zhao.

Tao Yunjiang looked at him with trembling eyes, his fists clenched so tightly that his nails almost pierced into his flesh.

She seemed to read from Fang Weihan's eyes the words he hadn't said yet.

"Even though you almost killed me?"

He seemed to be saying.

Tao Yunjiang felt heartbroken.

Chapter 76 Objective Enemies

"It doesn't matter. Since you two don't want to talk about it, then forget it."

Fang Weihan turned his gaze away from Tao Yunjiang and spoke calmly with a smile.

"No one should come to search the palace tonight. You two can stay here with me for now. You can leave tomorrow when the situation is not so tense."

"That's great, thank you, Your Highness."

Uncle Zhang bowed respectfully, his tone inevitably filled with gratitude.

"If Your Highness needs us in the future, just ask."

Fang Weihan waved his hand and didn't take his words to heart.

"That's all, you two should have a good rest."

"Second Master, help me back to my room."

Fang Weihan swallowed the blood that rushed to his throat and spoke as if nothing had happened.

I can't stay here any longer. If I stay, I will vomit blood and my image will be ruined.

"Okay, your highness, be careful."

Master Zhao hurriedly supported him and walked out step by step, carefully avoiding obstacles on the way.

Ning Bai looked at the two uninvited guests with cold eyes and followed them without saying a word.

She also needs to apply medicine to His Highness.

In the blink of an eye, the huge palace courtyard became silent.

The cold moonlight sprinkled on the tables and chairs, and flowed to the ground like water.

In the corner of the courtyard, Tao Yunjiang, dressed in black, squatted weakly, his shoulders trembling and sobbing from time to time.

She threw the Qi Cang sword far away, as if to show that the girl didn't want to see the sword again.

The rose-red sword wailed a few times and emitted a faint glow, looking very aggrieved.

Why did my master discard me like a piece of trash?

Uncle Zhang watched Fang Weihan and the others disappear into the darkness, then turned to look at Tao Yunjiang with a look of pity in his eyes.

"Don't cry, girl. I know you are sad, but there is nothing I can do about it."

He sighed.

"The current situation is too special. The incident tonight has not been fully investigated. It is very likely that there is a traitor in the organization."

"Except for the two of us, the others are most likely in danger."

"I thought I had spotted a good opportunity when Xiao Fuwei and Luo Tiangang were not in Changming, but I didn't expect that this might have been anticipated by those dogs from the aristocratic families."

"It is really not appropriate to have any more accidents..."

Uncle Zhang sat down tiredly and swallowed a healing pill. His expression then relaxed a little.

He was also seriously injured in the raid on the Xuanzhongwei headquarters tonight.

“But he saved me…”

The girl's voice came out muffled.

"I know he saved you, but..."

Uncle Zhang felt helpless.

"Uncle Zhang."

Tao Yunjiang raised his head from his knees, and his beautiful face, which used to be full of vigor and vitality, was now covered with traces of tears.

"I nearly killed him."

The girl clutched her sleeves tightly, trying hard to hold back the tears in her voice.

"Just a little bit..."

She couldn't hold back her tears any longer. Tears welled up in her eyes.

Uncle Zhang sighed again and remained silent.

"That day, he suddenly found me at Qinghuo Academy and said he wanted to learn martial arts from me."

Tao Yunjiang rested her head on her jade arms, her watery eyes staring blankly at the moonlight in front of her.

"I thought he was some scoundrel from out of nowhere and almost beat him up."

Although her eyes were filled with sadness, the girl couldn't help but curl her lips when she said this.

"From that day on, I knew that he was different from those children from aristocratic families."

"He knows how to respect, he understands kindness, and he won't bully the weak..."

Tao Yunjiang spoke softly, recalling every detail of her and Fang Weihan.

"He doesn't look like the domineering King Guangling in the rumors. He looks more like a kind and gentle man who grew up in the market."

"Later, he saved me once in Huanhua Tower, even though he used the stupidest method..."

The girl's tear-stained face was tinged with a blush, like a gorgeous peony just encountering dew.

Tao Yunjiang rarely needs others to protect her. As a martial arts genius that is rare in the Great Zhou Dynasty, she has long been accustomed to using Qi Cang in her hand to protect everyone.

But no matter how powerful she is, she is still a young girl in her prime after all.

And which girl has not fantasized about her own peerless hero?

In Tao Yunjiang's eyes, Fang Weihan, who stepped forward that day, is his peerless hero.

Since then, she has had some strange feelings towards her nominal cheap apprentice.

"He treated me like this, but I almost killed him. I..."

As Tao Yunjiang spoke, he burst into tears again, and his words became intermittent.

"I... I can't even tell him... what I'm doing..."

"Will he think... that I am... that I am a traitor who has committed many evil deeds..."

The girl whimpered softly.

Does he misunderstand himself?

Will he think that I am a murderer?

Whenever she thought of this, the girl always felt uneasy.

This is what she is most worried about.

The mysteries surrounding her are so serious that they cannot be easily shared with others.

Even if this person is Fang Weihan.

"Uncle Zhang, I really can't hold on any longer. I want to tell him everything..."

Tao Yunjiang sniffed, and his voice, which had been a little hoarse from crying, now carried a hint of confusion.

"Tell me, can I trust him?"

After a long silence, Uncle Zhang finally spoke:

"I'm afraid not."

Tao Yunjiang stopped crying and slowly raised her head.

She stared at Uncle Zhang blankly.

"why?"

Her tone contained three parts of disappointment, three parts of confusion, three parts of doubt, and one part of resentment.

"Because he is a vassal of the royal family!"

Uncle Zhang said in a deep voice, his words full of unquestionable determination.

"We can cooperate with the vassal kings, but they can never become our own people!"

"What we have to do is to dig out the bones and cure the poison in the Great Zhou Dynasty, to let the people of the world live a good life, and to eradicate the termites in those eight countries!"

"The emperor and the princes want to see all this, but they will not allow us to continue to survive. The result that the Fang family wants to see both us and the noble families suffer losses is the result that the Fang family wants to see the most!"

Uncle Zhang looked at Tao Yunjiang who was crying silently, seeming a little reluctant.

But he still said this:

"Do you think Fang Weihan will give up his position for you?"

Hearing this, Tao Yunjiang's pupils suddenly shrank.

There was another moment of silence.

She opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but finally lowered her head weakly.

"If you think Fang Weihan can be trusted and want to tell him about our affairs, then let him do something that will completely change my impression of him."

Uncle Zhang said in a cold voice.

"Otherwise, even if he saves you ten times, a hundred times, a thousand times, no matter how many poems he writes, he will still be the king of Zhou Dynasty to me, and he will still be the emperor's lackey!"

Tao Yunjiang said nothing more and just sobbed softly.
