Tyrant’s Consort Too Arrogant - C175
No matter how long it is, see you for one day, see you for one day.
Yi Ren very obediently carried the bag for Pei Ruochen, just like how she had carried her backpack to school in her previous life.
Pei Ruochen took a step forward and gently brushed away the strands of grass on her forehead. “Why does it feel like I just rolled over on the ground?”
“He fell.” Yi Ren pursed her lips and replied.
They went out, but there were no traces of them outside, Helan Xue could not be seen, and even the sounds of the battle could no longer be heard.
Pei Ruochen and Yi Ren still walked towards the teacher school at the foot of the mountain as usual.
Deep within the bamboo forest.
Yi Jian stood in front of the group of black clothed men with the Heavenly Empire guards and asked sternly: Who exactly are you people? “What is your purpose in coming to Eastmount?”
The black clothed man did not say anything. The group of a dozen or so people quietly confronted Yi Jian like ghosts and spirits.
When Helan Xue rushed over, Yi Jian had just finished asking his question, and their corpses were scattered everywhere. Both sides had suffered injuries, and from the looks of it, neither of them had taken advantage of the other.
“What happened?” Helan Xue walked over to Yi Jian’s side and asked.
Yi Jian turned and bowed, but seeing that Helan Xue’s entire body was drenched, he immediately gestured for the two to bring clean clothes over.
“I don’t know where they came from, but I saw them sneaking off in the direction of the princess, so I stopped them.” However, their kung fu skills were not weak, as if they had been specially trained. ” Yi Jian helped Helan Xue to change his clothes as he answered honestly.
Helan Xue nodded his head, he casually held onto his clothes and looked at the group of men in black.
The group of black-clothed men did not move. They still maintained a vigilant look and did not intend to retreat.
“The people from Yan Kingdom?” “Helan Xue bent over and picked up a hidden dart from the ground, asking indifferently,” “Yan Han told you to come?”
One of the men in black’s expression changed slightly.
Helan Xue’s eyes were sharp like a torch, he had long captured their slight expressions, and became even more suspicious, “They are indeed people from Yan Kingdom, why did Yan Han call you here for, is it for Pei Ruochen, or … To Yi Ren? ”
“Now that the prince has seen through us, we need not hide.” The leader of the black-clothed men finally spoke out. He bowed towards Helan Xue with a respectful and reserved manner, and said solemnly: “However, why have we come here, we will never say it. “Don’t try to push me.”
“I won’t force you. After you go back, tell Yan Han that he better not interfere with the matters of the imperial court anymore.” Helan Xue did not pursue the matter any further, and only lightly replied.
The black-clothed man’s eyebrows slightly moved, but he did not do anything. He only withdrew his body and then raised his hand to signal everyone to retreat in an orderly manner.
After they had all retreated, Yi Jian looked behind him and carefully asked, “Where’s the princess?”
Helan Xue’s expression darkened, and said softly: “I’m afraid she doesn’t want to see me anymore, and wants me to send people to protect her.” “For the time being, let her be.”
Yi Jian scratched his head, a little confused.
When Pei Ruochen was teaching, he would sit in the last row and sleep.
— It was just like the lessons in her previous life.
However, to be honest, this kind of classroom was much more boring than the one in his previous life.
The children carried obscure ancient words on their backs. Pei Ruochen was full of interest teaching them, but he couldn’t understand a single word.
Occasionally, she wanted to show off and spout out some classic poems, but when she thought about it, she felt that it was too boring and was too lazy to say it.
There was no point in doing things that sought fame.
As a result, the children also got used to the lazy bookkeeper who slept all day.
Today, Yi Ren slept especially early, so she could at least pretend to hear it everyday. It had been a night of rain and torment, and she was very sleepy.
Pei Ruochen had not even spoken much when he heard Yi Ren’s even breathing. He looked in her direction and sure enough, Yi Ren was fast asleep.
Pei Ruochen lowered his head and gave a slight smile. It seemed that Helan Xue’s visit the night before did not affect her.
It was unknown how long Yi Ren slept, but probably during the break, a little kid suddenly woke her up.
“Follower sister, follower sister, there is a young master who wants me to give this to you.”
All the children here called her a shadow sister, because she always followed Mr. Pei in and out of the house like a shadow.
Yi Ren did not mind, but when others called her that, she just giggled with her curved eyebrows, like a child.
All the children liked her, even though she did not really fit in with the brilliant Mr. Pei.
The child’s plump hands had already handed the paper over.
Yi Ren rubbed her eyes and took the slip of paper back from her, then opened it again in a daze.
The child who handed the note also took a glance at it, and the child immediately laughed out loud.
“What a fun picture.”
Pei Ruochen heard the laughter from Yi Ren’s side, and looked over. Seeing that Yi Ren was holding onto a piece of paper, without even blinking, her face revealed a smile.
Ever since Helan Xue came here, although Yi Ren always acted as if nothing had happened, she had never smiled like that.
“What’s wrong?” Pei Ruochen walked over, and did not read the slip of paper. He knew the distance.
“It’s Yan Han.” “Yi Ren passed the slip of paper to him naturally,” “Yan Han came over.”
On the slip of paper, was the Q version of the man in black, completely imitating the style of the cartoon map that Yi Ren left for him. It was also written with the same words, “I’m fine, Yan Han.”
Pei Ruochen’s expression did not change, but instead darkened.
He thought that Eastern Mountain was quiet, but now, not only Helan Xue knew, Yan Han had also come looking for him.
This was no longer the paradise he wanted.
Moreover,’s conflict with him had also made Pei Ruochen very worried. Yi Ren had never understood how to protect herself.
“What’s the matter with you?” Sensing that something was wrong with Pei Ruochen, he asked.
Pei Ruochen did not answer immediately, he only asked the child about the details very seriously. The child scratched his head and said, “It’s just a very tall and handsome uncle, it seems like there’s nothing wrong … … He gave it to me and left… “I was standing outside the window…”
Yi Ren listened and looked out of the window. Only the shadows of the bamboo were left behind.
Pei Ruochen’s expression slightly changed: Yan Han had been standing outside the window for so long, but he did not notice it.
Could it be that his cultivation was damaged?
“Yi Ren, let’s go back first.” As he said that, he pulled Yi Ren to get up, but just as she stood up, she suddenly felt dizzy.
Yi Ren looked on helplessly as Pei Ruochen fell to the ground. His already pale face was drained of blood.
When Pei Ruochen fell, he thought that he would really die like this.
The secret that his father told him about in the past had already been revealed. Before this disease began, there were no signs, and it only weakened you day by day. Once you fell one day, you might never wake up again.
Because he could not find out the reason, Pei Linpu had always believed that it was the Madame Xi’s incantation to punish his betrayal.
The moment he fell to the ground, Pei Ruochen didn’t feel sad at all. The only regret he had was that he didn’t want Yi Ren to see this scene.
He was also worried, if he fell, what would happen to Yi Ren?
She was such a person who didn’t know how to protect herself.
For a moment, he was in a cold black pond, and for a moment, he was in an incomparably scorching desert. Sometimes it was hot, sometimes it was cold, and always it was as if he was in hell.
Every time he was almost unable to bear it any longer, a light voice would constantly call out his name. It was a very familiar voice, but he could not immediately remember who it was.
After befuddled for an unknown period of time, Pei Ruochen was finally able to hear a little sound from the outside world. It seemed as if a low sigh from a faraway place was drifting over, which was not very clear, as if it had come from the depths of his memories.
“You know?” an excellent baritone asked.
“Yes.” The person who answered seemed to be in high spirits. His voice was low and sweet and determined. “I know the answer.”
Pei Ruochen’s heart trembled: That voice… It was Yi Ren.
“However, before that, you must tell me, how did you know the secret of this map?” The woman’s voice was not the slightest bit displeased. Instead, there was a faint smile on it.
“It’s very simple. You can just fold it and look at it. Then, when you meet the light, you will be able to clearly see the words on it.” Yi Ren did not seem to mind, “I just don’t understand why so many people are fighting over these words.”
“What they are fighting for is not the Supreme Diagram, but their own desire.” The woman answered blandly, “When I left the picture, I did say that the owner of the map would rule the world. How would they know that the world is not something a picture can decide?”
“But it does say, whoever can guess the riddle above, you can fulfill a wish for him, right?” Yi Ren emphasized it anxiously.
“Yes.” Did you guess? ”
“It’s a confession.” Yi Ren calmly replied: “The enigma is actually very simple. It is you who has complicated it, causing Helan Wushuang to leave behind a completely different ink painting. If you look carefully, the only difference is that the rock at the very top of the wall has slightly weathered. That should be the meaning of ‘withering the sea and crushing the rocks’. He left this map for you to express his feelings. ”
“Confession …” The woman’s voice trembled as she muttered to herself, “Why? Why did he leave me such a painting in the end after all he had been through? ”
She used Zhi Zun as the bait and the world as the bait to make everyone guess this riddle. Regardless of whether it was real or fake, everyone only saw a painting that was made of ink and water that was completely incomprehensible. No one was even looking at it from opposite sides, let alone noticing the invisible phrase that had been used to fold it.
It was just that Yi Ren never looked at things from the perspective that others normally used, she liked to look backwards and look irregularly. Furthermore, she had always observed paintings carefully, which was why she was able to figure it out.
“I don’t know why, but I’m afraid I have to ask him myself.” Yi Ren replied dumbly, then quickly confirmed: “Madam Dugu, now that I have given you the answer, can you tell me your request as well?”
