When Luo Qing was led into the palace by the guards, his thoughts were still in a daze.
When she heard Xia Fan ask that question, she had already guessed the other party's intention, but what really shocked her was that the princess seemed to have never been angry with Xia Fan before, and was even caught off guard when asked about it.
What is the relationship between these two people
Even such a major matter as conspiracy can have a tacit understanding and not expose each other? Moreover, Xia Fan can ask such a straightforward question without the other party clearly informing him. How deep is his heart? Aren't you afraid that the other party has any intention of hiding something and just drag him out and kill him
But no matter what, Xia Fan did prove his point to her.
Her Royal Highness the Princess is harboring rebellious intentions.
The moment she saw Ning Wanjun, Luo Qingqing couldn't help but be a little surprised - she knew that the third princess was not very old, one or two years younger than herself, but it was this little girl who was sitting on the soft couch. At that time, he actually had a calm and intimidating attitude, and the aura flowing in his body was like a flame that could erupt at any time. Also of royal blood, the fourth prince Ning Chunan was far inferior to her in terms of spirit and momentum.
"Kowtow to Her Royal Highness Princess Guangping." Luo Qingqing knelt down on one knee and said in a clear voice.
"Please get up." Ning Wanjun responded while also looking at the other party.
Luo Family in Youzhou—she was naturally familiar with this name. When she was in Qingshan Town, she also glanced at Luo Qingqing from a distance. At that time, she was surrounded by stars, and no matter where she went, she would be followed by a group of Luo family disciples. But now she seems to have changed a lot, whether it's her clothes or her expression and tone.
But the most obvious change is undoubtedly Luo Qingqing's eyes.
Gray and dull, like pearls whose color has been rubbed off.
To be honest, she doesn't trust the children of aristocratic families, especially those at the top, because they have a smooth journey and will inevitably become the mainstay of the Privy Council in the future, thus standing against her. If it weren't for Xia Fan's recommendation, she wouldn't have met him at all.
"I remember you were not like this before. Did something happen in Gyeonggi?"
Luo hesitated slightly, but seeing Xia Fan's slight nod, he briefly described the incident that happened to him.
"Oh, Ning Chunan..." Ning Wanjun sneered after hearing this, "It's more like what my stupid fourth brother would do. As for the subsequent pursuit, it will require mobilizing the Privy Council and Jianghu forces, which is obviously beyond him The scope of his abilities. I guess the person who gave the order behind the scenes should be his biological mother, Luo Yufei."
"Even if they are all from the Luo family." Xia Fan said solemnly.
"The six major aristocratic families are just given a surname, and the biological relationship itself is not enough for Luo Yufei to stop. But in the face of sufficient interests or interests, what is the relationship? Even if it is to give birth to offspring for him Woman—" Ning Wanjun bit her lips mid-sentence and swallowed back the last part of the sentence, "So you want to avenge the two Luo family disciples who died in vain? I finally understand why Xia Fan wanted to lure you to see me. "
"It's not just revenge." Luo said slowly, "Whether it's the palace or the Dali Temple, they are no longer able to perform their duties, and they collude with each other? Disturbing the proper order of the world. As long as they still control If you hold a high position, similar things will keep happening again. I want these people to pay the price they deserve."
Ning Wanjun was stunned? "So you want the forces in Shangyuan City to be completely reshuffled? But I heard from Xia Fan? You were planning to go to Gyeonggi alone."
As an alchemist, this goal is obviously a bit exaggerated
It can even be said to be wishful thinking.
"What I can do is indeed limited, and I also know that I can't reshape the world... But if you don't try to leverage these disordered people? Good changes will never emerge." Luo gently stretched out his hands? A thin sword of light quietly appeared in her palm? "Besides, I have gained strength from the door, so I should shoulder this responsibility."
"Your Highness!" Qiuyue quickly stood in front of the princess.
Ning Wanjun pushed the maid aside and frowned as she stared at the looming sword blade, "What kind of alchemy is this!?"
Xia Fan also had this question.
Luo Qingqing had mentioned the endless white and empty world when talking to him alone before? And the scene of waking up and seeing the energy of all things again. But the point at that time was to let Luo Qing give up the idea of going to Gyeonggi alone? Therefore, he did not ask further questions, and even doubted for a while whether it was an illusion she had seen when she was seriously injured.
But now it seems that is obviously not the case.
"I don't know what its name is, or what attribute it belongs to." Luo showed it gently and then disappeared? "I know how to use it, and I can control it freely? But -" she showed a confused look, "I can't find the right language to express it. It's as if this part of the content was suddenly printed in my memory, And it’s not connected to the rest of it.”
"Your Highness... Could this be..." Qiuyue said in shock.
"Listener." Ning Wanjun nodded seriously.
"Listener?" Xia Fan repeated in a low voice, "What do you mean?"
"It's normal that you haven't heard of it. After all, this is a secret closely guarded by the Privy Council, and it is difficult for ordinary people to have access to it." The princess told the information about the listener, and then looked at Xia Fan, "In fact, you are a listener. . Those voices that you don’t know where they come from will appear in your ears in a way that only you can understand. I have always wanted to tell you this before, but I never found the right opportunity. Remember, about the identity of the listener, Do not leak it under any circumstances, otherwise the Privy Council will notice it, and your situation will not be much better than that of the demons."
"Xia Fan, have you seen that white door too..." Luo stared at him gently.
Facing the gazes of the two people, Xia Fan only felt full of questions.
"Wait, I think this matter is up for debate. What is the door? What is the voice from nowhere? I have neither been in Luo Qingqing's situation nor heard the whisper you said. Just think that I am the listener , wouldn’t it be a bit too hasty?”
"Then where did you learn the idea about salt fields, the arithmetic that astonished Mo Yun, and the incredible earthquake magic technique?" Ning Wanjun asked with a sideways glance.
"Uh..." Xia Fan got stuck. He couldn't say it was something he brought with him in his previous life.
"So I'm right." The princess raised her lips, turned to Luo and said softly, "If you are still the genius of the Luo family in the past, I don't think you are suitable to stay in Jinxia City. But now... you don't have to Fighting alone.”
Are you going to achieve your goals with Xia Fan and Princess Guangping...
This dramatic change made Luo Qingqing unable to recover for a long time.
In other words, her initial reluctance to involve everyone was meaningless - because judging from Xia Fan's attitude, he came up with this intention much earlier than she did!
That's why he said words like "Jinxia City needs her" nonchalantly.
Luo Qingqing couldn't describe the feeling in her heart at this moment, but she couldn't deny that the lingering fatigue seemed to have dissipated a lot, and the forcibly suppressed emotions and memories were returning to her mind little by little.
At this moment, the palace door was opened again, and Li walked in with a little girl.
"Senior sister!"
Luo turned around slightly in surprise and saw the girl running towards her and bumping into her arms.
Xia Fan gave Li a thumbs up, and the latter wagged his tail proudly.
"Luo... You'er..."
"Senior sister—I miss you so much!"
Feeling the other person's warmth, Luo's slightly tense body finally relaxed. She closed her eyes and allowed her emotions to flow out.
His already hazy vision became even blurrier.
