She was a coward who was very afraid of taking responsibility. In the past, she was just a servant girl who would secretly curse people when she was washing clothes. Even if she could be heartless and not care about anything, pretending to be at ease behind you, Hsu Fengnian, there would be no place for you to feel at ease.
She knew that in the territory of Da Chu, in the past twenty years, many common people had privately said that the reason for the destruction of Da Chu was because of her mother, whose face she had long forgotten. Otherwise, how could the magnificent Da Chu, with its wise ruler, gathered civil officials, generals skilled in battle, and common people living in peace and happiness, lose to the barbarian Li Yang in the north, who didn't even know the etiquette between ruler and official? She didn't want to believe this, but sometimes she was still afraid. She was afraid that she would become his femme fatale.
If it was three years ago, when she didn't understand anything, when she only felt that a man and a woman should be together as long as they liked each other, she would have left with him.
But after entering Guangling Road, although she didn't understand the general situation of the world, after thinking about it and imagining countless scenes of reunion after parting for a long time, in the end, she realized that she didn't dare to leave, that she couldn't leave.
She didn't know how many times she hid in her blankets and secretly cried. She didn't know how many times her palms were sweaty when she met with her officials. She didn't know how many times she wanted to fly on her sword to the Northwest Pass to see him, or to see Mount Qingliang in the distance, or to see the little vegetable garden on Mount Wudang.
She clutched her chest, but her heart still ached.
In the waning light, she missed him very much.
She was actually very happy that he came to find her.
She really wanted to tell him that she regretted stabbing him with her sword.
In the years to come, you can hate me.
But don't dislike me.
She raised her head, her face full of tears, and sobbed softly, "Even if you don't like me, you can only dislike West Chu's Jiang Si. You can't dislike Jiang Ni."

Looking from the top of the city wall, one could see the lights of tens of thousands of homes.
There was a young man sitting quietly on the top of the city wall, like a lonely ghost with nowhere to go. His back was to the outside of the city, facing the inside of the city.
Every once in a while, his body would sway, and blood would seep out of the wound on his chest that was hastily bandaged.
A tall woman dressed in white hesitated for a long time before finally coming to his side. She said sadly, "Why bother? You're fighting an entire country by yourself."
The young man was silent.
The tall and beautiful woman sighed and said, "Although West Chu doesn't have much fate left, it's still not something you can easily fight against alone. Especially when you were injured in the battle with Chen Zhibao on the Guangling River. Since things are already like this, why do you want to stay here and make things worse? "
In the eyes of a Qi Refinement Warrior, she could see the giant pillar of providence that stood in the center of West Chu's capital city. White flood dragons were constantly separating from it and pouncing on her, crashing into her body.
This was West Chu's true killer move against the Earth Immortals. As for the two city guards, they were not even worth mentioning.
The young man was still looking at the distant palace city. He said calmly, "Tantai Pingjing, actually I know that according to fate, there are actually two people whom the Heavenly Axiom hates to win against I, Hsu Fengnian. Other than Xie Guanying, who raised a flood dragon in a bowl, there's also you, the Sect Master of the Guanyin Sect. However, in the battle of the Imperial Astronomer, Xie Guanying was beaten to a pulp. Ancestor Lu, who was either a Heaven Immortal or an Earth Immortal, appeared. Unfortunately, Hong Xixiang was still unwilling to accept the second recruitment by the Heavenly Axiom. Therefore, I also know that after Xie Guanying's fate was greatly injured, the person who benefited the most was actually you. Therefore, I'm waiting for you to make a move. Instead of waiting for you and me to become enemies in the future, instead of worrying about you ruining my Beiliang's fate in the future, it's better to have a clean end between you and me now. "
Tantai Pingjing's expression was complicated.
Hsu Fengnian coughed a few times and said slowly, "Before you decide to make a move, the two of us can be considered as friends. Why don't you have a chat with me?"
Tantai Pingjing nodded and said, "Okay."
Hsu Fengnian, whose feet were hanging outside the wall, smiled and said, "Guess who I envy the most among all the people of the pugilistic world?"
Tantai Pingjing thought for a moment and asked, "Is it not Li Chungang?"
Hsu Fengnian shook his head and said, "No."
Tantai Pingjing hesitated for a moment and the corner of her mouth curled up slightly, "Mount Hui's Xuanyuan Jingcheng?"
Hsu Fengnian suddenly turned his head and was a little flustered. He scolded jokingly, "You're courting death! Admiration is admiration, but I don't want to be Xuanyuan Jingcheng! "
Tantai Pingjing smiled knowingly.
Hsu Fengnian looked into the distance again. The city was full of lights, as if he was looking up at the bright stars of summer and autumn. "I envy Đồng Thái the most. He doesn't care about the ups and downs of the pugilistic world, and he doesn't care about the treacherous clouds in the palace. After leaving the Wu family's Sword Tomb, he has no more grievances and no more attachments. He is all alone in the world, riding a donkey and looking at the mountains and rivers. I believe that if one day this Peach Blossom Sword God suddenly falls in love with a girl, he and she will be free and unfettered. "
Tantai Pingjing said with emotion, "I really didn't expect it to be Đồng Thái."
Hsu Fengnian crossed his hands on his knees and said, "Yes."
Tantai Pingjing sat beside him and was actually a little taller than him. "Why didn't she leave?"
Hsu Fengnian thought for a moment and said, "Probably because she has grown up. I'm actually not as sad as you think."
Tantai Pingjing said, "Then you are still very sad. Being stabbed in the heart by your sweetheart is like being stabbed in the heart. It would be strange if you weren't sad. "
Hsu Fengnian snorted coldly. He didn't refute or admit it.
Tantai Pingjing squinted and said softly, "In this life, everyone has their own destiny. Some people are always able to do what they want to do and are very lucky. Some people are always able to do what they want to do and are very happy. And some people can only do what they should do and some people can only do what others think they should do. "
Hsu Fengnian couldn't help but laugh. It affected his wound again and he coughed heavily a few times. Tantai Pingjing hesitated for a moment, as if she wanted to raise her hand and pat his back a few times. But in fact, she didn't even move her fingers. She was in a dilemma.
Hsu Fengnian shook his head gently and suspected that he was imagining things. He said with a smile, "I didn't expect you to be able to comfort people. Will the sun rise from the west tomorrow?"
Tantai Pingjing was expressionless. But even if she wasn't angry, her mood wouldn't be much better.
So not long after she sat down, she stood up again.
Hsu Fengnian looked up curiously.
She said unhappily, "I'm hungry. Let's go for a midnight snack. Only when you are full will you have the strength to fight. "
Tantai Pingjing flew from the top of the city wall into the city.
Hsu Fengnian laughed softly behind her. "Silly big guy, although the memory left by your master is very fragmented, I can tell you one thing. He cared about you very much. At least when he left the world, he was still worried that you would be hungry."
Tantai Pingjing's face flushed instantly and she almost fell to the ground.
After she left, he continued to look at the palace city.
Looking at her.
Wanting to be together forever.
It seemed that a Taoist saint once said that it was better to forget each other than to help each other in times of need.
After sitting for a long time, Hsu Fengnian, who was drowsy, suddenly stood up and stood on the top of the city wall between the city and the city.

The next day, a person was lying on a beam and dozing off. He was leisurely and happy.
