If everything could come back

In front of Luoyang Marshal's Mansion

"Kou Zhong, wait for me." A familiar voice came from behind, Kou Zhong stopped and turned his head, she came to him!Yuzhi ran to Kou Zhong's side, panting, with fine sweat on his forehead, obviously in the state of rushing desperately.Fortunately, she caught up!

"Why are you chasing me?" Kou Zhong asked, instinctively wanting to reach out to help her wipe the sweat off her forehead, but then thinking about what she said that day in Xingxingwu, he put down his movements again.

"I heard that Miss Xiuning is here?"

"What? Are you afraid that I will see her?" He looked directly at her, as long as you say that you are afraid that I will see her, I will immediately go back to Pegasus Ranch with you!

"No, I haven't seen Miss Xiuning for a long time, so I wanted to visit her." She avoided his eyes.

"Really." Kou Zhong started, "Let's go in." He didn't wait for her.

Song Yuzhi, every hope you give me turns out to be an illusion.

"Young Master Zhong and Yuzhi are back!" As soon as the two stepped into the Marshal's Mansion, Zi Ling went up to pick up the two who had just entered, and Fei Xuan followed.

"Kou Zhong, Yuzhi." Xiu Ning, who was following behind, greeted the two of them. Seeing the two of them coming back together, she probably had no position to ask Kou Zhong to help Li Tang...

"Sister Xiuning! You're here, are you okay?" Yuzhi stepped forward and looked at Xiuning who was much thinner than before.

"Miss, who is she? Why did you come back with Kou Zhong?" Qiu Ru whispered in Xiu Ning's ear, it seemed that Kou Zhong was really caring, but she believed that Kou Zhong only had Miss in his heart.

Xiuning glared at Qiuru, but Qiuru stopped saying, "I'm fine, how about you?"

"Me too."

The two were speechless, and the scene was a little awkward.

"Xiu Ning, did you come to see me for something?" Kou Zhong broke the embarrassment.

"Well, Kou Zhong, I have something to discuss with you." Xiu Ning looked at the people standing aside.

"What do you say, as long as I can help, I will help. Here are my own people, so there is no need to shy away from it."

Xiuning took a deep breath, as if she had made a lot of determination, she knelt down, "Kou Zhong, I want to beg you to form an alliance with Li Tang and help Second Brother win the world!"

"Miss!" Qiu Ru looked at Xiu Ning who was kneeling in surprise.

"Get up first!" Kou Zhong wanted to help Xiuning get up, but Xiuning refused.

"Kou Zhong, now the Li family has survived in name only. The second elder brother has been trapped by the emperor's father. The eldest brother and the third brother have colluded with the demon sect and are unable to manage the Li family at all. And the emperor has Dong Concubine by his side. The Li family is suffering from internal and external troubles. , if your young commander wants to attack, it will be a breeze. I know I have no right to ask you, so you can help me once because of your past friendship. I beg you to help the second brother out of trouble, and form an alliance with the second brother for a win-win situation The world! If you are willing to help me, Xiu would rather be at your service for the rest of her life!"

Kou Zhong looked at Xiu Ning condescendingly, he knew that Yi Xiu Ning's temperament said these words meant that she really had nowhere to go, no matter how dangerous she was in the past, she would never bow her head to others.

"I'm sorry Xiu Ning, but I can't promise you. Li Tang and I have a mortal feud. He used to be Li Mi's father, but now he is the Pegasus Ranch!"

"Pegasus Ranch..."

"Pegasus Ranch was completely wiped out, I have to take revenge!"

"Kou Zhong, listen to me, I believe that the matter of the Pegasus Ranch is completely unaware of the father, and it is entirely done by Concubine Dong."

"Do it by one person?" Kou Zhong sneered, "Without the power given by Li Yuan, how would Dong Shuni destroy the Pegasus Ranch? I won't let it go! Also, Li Shimin doesn't need me to help him get out of trouble, Xiuning, maybe Li Shimin is here I don’t know how many things you have planned during the time you were confined in the palace.”

"Kou Zhong...you...wouldn't help me, would you..." Xiuning knelt down on the ground, seeing Kou Zhong being so decisive, she knew that what she said was useless, maybe she didn't have to worry about it before, but now... Maybe she has already lost her weight in his heart.

"Xiu Ning, I don't want to help Li Tang." Kou Zhong knelt down and looked at the despairing Xiu Ning, the woman he once liked, he wanted to get ahead because of her; he founded the Double Dragon Gang because of her; It was because of her that he wanted to compete in the world, but now he no longer had her in his life.

"Then Kou Zhong... what if I say I'd like to marry you?" Xiu Ning burst into tears, regardless of the reactions of other people present, she still wanted to see how much she still had in his heart.

Looking at all this, Yuzhi felt a little distressed...Sister Xiuning...

"sorry."

Xiu Ning smiled bitterly, wiping away the tears on her face, "Kou Zhong, you have already made your choice, what you really like is Yu Zhi who is by your side and shares weal and woe with you, but I... I didn't cherish our relationship properly , I missed it.” It turned out that she had long since ceased to exist...

Kou Zhong has nothing to say, can he choose now...

For a moment, Xiu Ning covered her heart, and she fell to the ground in pain.

"Xiu Ning, what's wrong with you?" Kou Zhong helped Xiu Ning to lean on him.

"Sister Xiuning!" Could it be that sister Xiuning was also poisoned... Shuni really...

"Go away! Miss, how are you?" Qiu Ru pushed Kou Zhong away to support Xiu Ning. She didn't expect Kou Zhong to treat Miss like this. In a panic, she cried and shouted: "How can you treat Miss like this?" Do you know how much Miss has endured for you! She was poisoned by Concubine Dong for informing you about the Pegasus Ranch, and this poison made her die of pain for half an hour every day! But you refused even one of her requests. Refuse to agree!"

"I…"

"Qiu Ru...you...don't...say any more..." Xiu Ning grabbed Qiu Ru's clothes to stop her, she was too painful to speak.

Miss Shi...Miss Shi..."Miss Shi! Take a look at Xiuning!" Kou Zhong said anxiously.

Feixuan came to Xiuning and squatted down, she felt her pulse with a distressed expression on her face.

"How is it?" Kou Zhong asked.

"Miss Li's pulse condition is not inappropriate, and there is no random smell in her body..." Feixuan was puzzled, and then she thought: "I heard that there is a poison in the Demon Gate called "Half-Time Saving Heart". This poison is harmless to life. , will make people suffer from heartache for half an hour every day."

"Then is there an antidote to this poison?"

"I don't know, I think I need to ask Wanwan!" Feixuan looked at Ziling.

"I'm going to look for Wanhou now, Young Master Zhong, take good care of Miss Xiuning." Young Master Ling got up, and when he left, he saw Yuzhi standing aside in a daze, and patted her on the shoulder, as if telling her not to think too much. Yuzhi smiled back, and Ziling left in peace.

Kou Zhong picked up Xiuning and walked to the back room, he didn't look at Yuzhi.

"Yuzhi, are you alright?" Feixuan asked worriedly.

"I'm fine." If he saw her poisonous hair...would he be so nervous?

"Feixuan, accompany me for a walk."

"But Miss Li..."

"Don't worry, Miss Xiuning will be fine in half an hour. Besides... Kou Zhong is by her side..."

"kindness."

In the tavern, Yuzhi and Feixuan ordered a few vegetarian dishes and a jug of wine, and Yuzhi kept drinking himself one cup after another.

"Yuzhi, drink less." Feixuan persuaded Yuzhi, who looked at her slightly flushed cheeks.

"Feixuan, let me ask you...if...I mean if...you know...you can't...can't be with...Zi Ling...but you...but because of one thing...you can't leave him, then you will... It doesn't matter...to be with him...or...to give up on him...for him and others?" The more Yuzhi wanted to get drunk, the more sober she became.

"I think I will tell Ziling the truth and let Ziling choose. If he wants to be with me, I will be with him; if he chooses someone else, then I will bless him."

"It's not... how easy... If you... are with him... then you will... leave him in the future... then he will be alone... Wouldn't it be... Wouldn't it be very painful?"

"If Ziling really loves me, I think he will suffer even more if I'm not with him."

"Feixuan...I think...if you...if you really encounter...this...you...you won't...think so."

"Yuzhi, did this happen to you?" Feixuan asked.

"Of course not...I'm just...thinking...Kou Zhonghe...and sister Xiuning...After all...Sister Xiuning has her family..." Yuzhi explained, she lay down on the table and fell asleep.

"Yuzhi? Yuzhi?" Feixuan shook lightly.

"Feixuan, I don't want to go back to the Marshal's Mansion today...can I go back tomorrow morning?" Yuzhi said, but she was not drunk.

"Okay." Feixuan agreed, she knew Yuzhi's mood, Feixuan got up and asked Xiaoer to give a piece of silver as the accommodation fee, she blew out the candle and meditated to accompany Yuzhi.

When the two returned to the Marshal's Mansion early in the morning, they saw Kou Zhong sitting in the lobby waiting.

Feixuan glanced at the two of them, "You guys have a good chat, I'm going to rest first." She left.

"Where did you go last night? Why didn't you come back?" Kou Zhong asked, although his voice was steady, there was still anger that couldn't be concealed.

"Sister Xiuning, is she alright?"

"She'll be fine after a short rest." He endured.

"Then I'm going to rest too."

Kou Zhong got up and pulled Yuzhi to his side, he broke out and no longer held back, "Song Yuzhi, what do you mean? You are the one who wants to come back with me, but now you see Xiuning but you have this attitude!"

"What's wrong with me? I'm fine! As long as you don't help Li Tang, I don't care about the rest." Yuzhi stared at Kou Zhong with a look of indifference.

"Really? It's a pity that I changed my mind!" He said every word clearly, seeing her surprised eyes, he smiled with satisfaction, "Xiu Ning has paid so much for me, I can't owe her! I will form an alliance with Li Shimin! "

"Kou Zhong! You promised me that I would not form an alliance with Brother Shimin!" Yuzhi was annoyed, did he know that after Li Tang conquered the world, Brother Shimin would not easily spare him, and it is even more impossible now.

"Unless you marry me, I will form an alliance with Li Shimin!"

"I said we can't be together..."

"Song Yuzhi, don't use He Shibi's prophecy as an excuse! Are you going to marry or not!" He asked her again with a determined look in his eyes.

"I don't want to marry!" Yuzhi looked back, she shook off him and grabbed her hand.

Kou Zhong smiled immediately, "Aren't you happy that your brother Shimin won the world? Maybe you can be a queen." He said frivolously.

"Slap!" With a crisp slap, she slapped him...

"Don't worry! I won't marry you, and I won't marry Brother Shimin either!" She turned and left, leaving him alone there in silence.

Xiu Ning walked out from the back and looked at Kou Zhong who looked disappointed, she had been there since just now.

"Kou Zhong, if I'm willing...you...will you marry me?"

"No... I'm sorry Xiu Ning, I can marry anyone... except you." He replied, his eyes were still looking at the direction Yuzhi left, his tone lost the violence just now but with a hint of sadness.

"I understand." Xiuning smiled wryly, "Kou Zhong...will you still form an alliance with the second brother?"

"Yes, as long as Yuzhi doesn't marry me, I will form an alliance with Li Shimin, and I will repay your "half-time love"."

"Thank you, Kou Zhong..." Xiu Ning thanked her. It was the first time she felt despicable. In fact, the "half-time heartache" was not entirely because of Kou Zhong, but she didn't want to say it, and let him bear the guilt like this , maybe she still has an undying heart for him... Why did she realize that she cared about him so much when he no longer had her in his heart?Thinking of how nervous he was to her yesterday, and who stayed with her every step of the way, she actually hoped that her poison would never be cured, so that he could always be by her side and accompany her.

Knocking on the door of Yuzhi's room, Xiuning was a little strange.

"Miss Xiuning?"

"Yuzhi, can I come in and sit down?"

"Of course." Yuzhi stepped aside to signal Xiuning to come in.

"Yuzhi, we two sisters haven't seen each other for a long time." Xiuning sighed, "Do you still remember that you said that our sisterhood will not change because of a man?"

"I remember." Yuzhi bowed her head, her expression was not as good as before, "Sister Xiuning, as long as you are willing... we will always be sisters."

"Since we are sisters, we don't need to say unnecessary words between us. Yuzhi, I know that you and I can't go back to the past, but our relationship will not change." Xiuning held Yuzhi's hand "Yuzhi...can I ask?" Why are you so opposed to the alliance between Kou Zhong and the second brother?"

"In the past, I was too stupid and didn't know how to think." Yuzhi looked at Xiuning, "Sister Xiuning, let me ask you, do you love Kou Zhong or the Li family more?"

"..." Xiu Ning was unable to answer for a moment.

"If you love Kou Zhong more, you shouldn't ask him to help the Li family. Wouldn't it be better to let him conquer the world and take in the Li family? Then you can be with him in a legitimate way."

"Yuzhi, you know that Kou Zhong and I are no longer possible, he loves you the most now."

"But you still love Kou Zhong, don't you?" Yu Zhi asked back, she suddenly leaned her head on Xiu Ning's shoulder as she was at the Pegasus Ranch, "Sister Xiu Ning, as long as you promise to stay by Kou Zhong's side forever, and accompany him to conquer the world If I don’t help you, Li Tang, put him first, I will leave Kou Zhong from now on, never see him again, and disappear for the rest of my life.”

"Yuzhi, why did you do this?" Xiuning lowered her head and asked Yuzhi.

"Because... I put him first." She murmured and replied, "This is our sister's whisper, you can't tell Kou Zhong!" She didn't forget to tell her.

"Yuzhi, you should actually stay by Kou Zhong's side." Xiuning felt distressed, thinking of everything Yuzhi had done for Kou Zhong, and what had she done for Kou Zhong?

"It doesn't matter who is by Kou Zhong's side, what matters is who can stay with him forever, Sister Xiuning... That will only be you, not me." She doesn't exist here, and she won't in the future.

"Yuzhi, do you know what Kou Zhong told me?"

Yuzhi stepped away from Xiuning's shoulders and looked at her. Xiuning continued, "He said...he can marry anyone, except me, and it's because of you."

"Yuzhi, I want to stay by Kou Zhong's side all the time, but you don't need to do anything, including fulfilling me, you know!" Xiuning left.

Yuzhi recalled what he said just now, but... I can't accompany Kou Zhong.
