'Goodbye, Ji Pei!'
Ji Li's expression was sinister.
He took two steps towards Su Ziluo and said, "Aren't you and my good little sister in love? Don't tell me you don't know that her skillful hands are not only good for the dead, but also for the living? "
His tone was filled with unconcealable ridicule.
Ji Yunshu was an expert in painting, so it was not difficult for her to disguise herself on a person's face.
A moment later, Su Ziluo's lips curved into a smile. Of course he knew!
He only said indifferently, "Interesting!"
Indeed, it was extremely interesting. No matter how he thought about it, he was one step slower than Ji Yunshu, and this whirlpool was his own doing.
Ji Yunshu quietly wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes. She endured the pain in her heart and took a step forward.
She explained to Su Ziluo, "The person who died in the prison was a convict on death row who had committed a serious crime. Coincidentally, his figure and War Secretary Ji's were very similar, and even their voices were somewhat similar. Before your plan was carried out, the Ministry of Justice's prison had already changed the dragon and phoenix, but you were one step slower."
After she finished speaking, Ji Li hurriedly followed up.
"Fortunately, I was lucky enough to have a smart and not muddle-headed good little sister." Su Ziluo's sinister expression was revealed.
Good little sister?
These words sounded really disgusting.
However, Ji Yunshu was indeed worthy of the word 'good'. After all, Ji Li's survival was due to her efforts.
Su Ziluo took a deep breath and smirked. "Hmm, at least now I clearly understand why I lost. This Great Lin is indeed full of talented people!"
He did not forget to praise Ji Pei.
Ji Li stated, "Ji Pei, your scheme has been seen through. Since His Majesty has promised to let you return safely, I will not kill you today. However, if there comes a day when you and I meet on the battlefield, I will not show any mercy."
"That day will come!"
Su Ziluo slightly narrowed his eyes.
Ji Yunshu and Su Ziluo's characters were too similar. When faced with a problem, they were calm and indifferent.
Even someone as calm as Ji Li could not help but feel anxious when he saw Su Ziluo's calm demeanor.
He could only hold the sword in his hand tightly and restrain his murderous aura.
Ji Yunshu glanced sideways at Ji Li and said, "I wonder if War Secretary Ji can retreat for a while?"
"Of course you can. You haven't seen each other for two years. You really have a lot to talk about."
How kind!
Ji Li led his men and retreated to a place about ten meters away.
Everyone turned their backs on him!
Ji Yunshu called out to Su Ziluo, "Ji Pei …"
"Just call me Mr. Su."
He interrupted her.
This sentence seemed to pull the distance between the two of them further and further apart!
It was a little unfamiliar.
Ji Yunshu's eyes reddened. She nodded absentmindedly. "Teacher Su, you must be careful on your way back to Qujiang. I … I'm afraid I won't be able to see you off."
"En!"
It was faint.
"If there is a chance in the future, I will definitely bring Teacher Su to the great grasslands in the north. I heard that there are orchids that bloom day and night, as well as the fiercest horses and flocks of sheep. If you continue to the north, you will reach a snow-capped mountain. There is a small temple at the top of the mountain. The locals say that the Bodhisattva in that temple is very efficacious. In the future, you must go there at least once …"
Her voice became louder and louder, and the rims of her eyes became redder and redder.
Her body trembled and she was on the verge of collapse.
Su Ziluo listened attentively to her words as if he was looking forward to that day. The scene kept flashing in his mind.
It became clearer and clearer!
Finally, the two of them looked at each other and smiled.
It was as if the weak spot between them had been pulled out from their hearts.
A two-year wait!
A concern of two years!
Everything was relieved.
After a long time, Su Ziluo took out the tassel from his sleeve and handed it over to her.
He said, "This was given to me by my father. You should keep it."
Ji Yunshu stretched out her hand and took out her own. She tied the two tassels together.
Then …
She crouched down and tied the tassel around Su Ziluo's waist.
"I believe that if your father's spirit is watching from Heaven, he would hope that you can put aside your hatred and live a good life. This tassel was left to you by your father. Wear it well."
The tassel was already on her waist.
She was about to get up when Su Ziluo grabbed her hands. An ice-cold feeling spread from Su Ziluo's palms to her fingertips.
Just like in the past, his hands were still colder than hers.
The two of them looked at each other, neither of them saying a word.
Until …
Time passed by slowly.
Ji Li brought some people over and separated the two of them.
The guards pushed Su Ziluo away from the gate tower. Ji Li carried his sword and walked in front with cold steps.
From beginning to end, Su Ziluo did not look back at her.
"Goodbye, Ji Pei."
His voice was weak.
Suddenly, a figure jumped to her side.
It was Li 'er.
He stood five meters away from her. The faint moonlight made it difficult to illuminate Li 'er's appearance.
"Are you Teacher Su's man?"
He nodded.
Then, he raised his hand and made a few gestures in the air.
Ji Yunshu did not understand.
"Sorry, I don't know what you are talking about."
Li 'er did not give up and made a few more gestures, but Ji Yunshu still did not understand. Li' er became anxious and walked a few steps in front of her with an anxious expression. She could see that he wanted to say something, but he could not open his mouth.
"Ah, ah, ah, ah!"
No matter how hard Ji Yunshu tried to understand his gestures, she still could not understand.
Li 'er was discouraged. He lowered his head and looked at the bottom of the gate tower. The dozens of torches were gradually moving away.
He took two steps, then leaped into the air and disappeared.
He probably went to chase after Su Ziluo.
Ji Yunshu stood there in a daze, watching the torches slowly disappear from her line of sight.
Only then did she descend the gate tower.
A lantern was left at the bottom.
She held it in her hand and walked back to the Rong Estate. Her mood was different from when she returned. Now, she felt inexplicably relaxed.
She felt like a stone falling to the ground.
How wonderful!
Just as she arrived at the entrance of the Rong Estate, she saw Jing Rong waiting for her.
When she saw him, Ji Yunshu could not help but think of Su Ziluo's words.
'Is there really someone living in my heart?
Is it … Jing Rong? '
Thinking of this, she did not dare to look directly at Jing Rong's eyes.
Instead, she turned sideways, wanting to go around him.
But her arm was pulled by Jing Rong, holding her in place. Her body trembled, and the lantern in her hand almost fell to the ground.
The cold wind rustled.
The flickering light made people feel dizzy.
Jing Rong's expression was solemn. "How is it? Are you done with what you have to say and what you have to say? "
She asked, "Your Highness, you already know that he is Ji Pei, right?"
"Yes." He confessed.
Ji Yunshu frowned, but did not say anything.
