Even though Qin Nan was confused and infatuated at this time, she still noticed Su Shi's nervousness and uneasiness when she heard Su Shi's violent heartbeat.
Qin Nan raised her head in surprise, because she had never seen Su Shi so frightened before, and she could even feel his body shaking slightly.
"Are you scared?"
Su Shi did not deny it because no matter how much he controlled it, he could never control his body's instinctive reaction.
"Why?"
He held Qin Nan's soft, boneless hand, walked slowly to the window, looked at the unpredictable white clouds on the horizon, and sighed softly: "Because the current situation is much more complicated than I imagined. I’ve been thinking about it for a long time, but I still can’t think of a way to break the situation.”
Qin Nan held his hand tightly and asked silently: "What happened that made you want to hide it from Her Highness the Princess?"
"Are you referring to the matter of Qin Tian Jian's careful work?"
Qin Nan nodded slightly. This was what she couldn't understand the most: "I always feel that your attitude towards them is very strange, and you seem to be protecting them intentionally or unintentionally."
Su Shi was silent for a long time, and finally sighed helplessly: "Because I know what they want to do, that's why I can't be cruel to deal with them. In my opinion, what they did is just, but it's just a misfortune." At that time, it was just impossible to succeed.”
"What do they want to do?"
Su Shi forced a smile: "Do you still remember that I told you that in my dream, there was no emperor in that world?"
"I remember."
"Bae Hyun just wants to build that kind of world."
Qin Nan covered his mouth and exclaimed in a low voice: "Pei Xuan wants to build a world without an emperor?"
"yes."
"Why?"
"Because although that world is not perfect, for the people of Daqian, it can be regarded as a paradise on earth."
"The paradise on earth?"
"You should know that Master Confucius once described a world of great harmony."
Qin Nan recited softly: "On the journey of the great road, the world is for the common good, select the talented and capable, be trustworthy and cultivate harmony. We are not only close to our relatives, nor are we only children to our children. Old people will die, strong people will be useful, and those who are lonely, widowed, and sick will all be together." Have something to support..."
Su Shi said slowly: "After fifteen hundred years of dreams, Pei Xun thought he had found the world of Datong, so he wanted to turn Daqian into the world of Datong."
"A thousand-and-five-hundred-year dream?" Qin Nan's eyes widened, and then she looked at him worriedly: "Is this what Pei Xun told you?"
"This is what Pei Xuan's successor told me, just after I left the warehouse." Then he looked at Qin Nan's frightened and worried look and smiled comfortingly at her.
"After leaving the warehouse, the carriage took me to an unknown place outside the city. Then I met Pei Xun's successor cordially and had a friendly and pleasant exchange."
Qin Nan looked at him blankly, as if he didn't recognize him.
Su Shi couldn't help but sigh at this time: "It's just that when I left, he left me a very difficult problem that gave me a headache."
"What problem?"
"They are planning to murder His Majesty, just like they did to the Crown Prince, and that purple smoke is the signal to take action."
Qin Nan's face turned pale after hearing this, and her hands became extremely cold.
"But that's not the scariest thing."
"Conspiracy..." Qin Nan couldn't help but exclaimed when he heard Su Shi's words in a daze. However, as soon as he said these two words, he immediately covered his mouth tightly. Seeing that there was no movement around him, he lowered his voice. Said: "Isn't it terrible to murder His Majesty?"
"If only Pei Xun had the intention of harming Your Majesty, I really wouldn't be afraid." Su Shi murmured: "But now for the sake of the supreme position, I'm afraid some people want His Majesty to die more than Pei Xun."
Su Shi's words were already treacherous, but Qin Nan was so shocked by his words that he couldn't think straight and couldn't rebuke him.
After a long time, Qin Nan's face slowly returned to color, and then he looked at Su Shi quietly.
"Now can you tell me the whole story of the whole thing?"
Su Shi nodded slightly, looked at her, and suddenly laughed.
"This matter will start from the sixth day of March."
Qin Nan wondered: "Why do we start from the sixth day of March?"
Su Shi said silently: "Because from that day on, everything seems to have changed."
"Is that day special?"
"That day was indeed special." Su Shi couldn't help but sigh: "Because that day after I first woke up from the dream, I originally went to your house to cancel the engagement."
Only then did Qin Nan remember that it was on the sixth day of March that she and Su Shi met by the Yudai River after ten years.
Thinking of this, Qin Nan couldn't help but feel a sense of tenderness in his heart, and leaned gently on Su Shi's chest.
"It was also on that day that Pei Xuan learned about my secret and started paying attention to me."
"How could he know your secret?"
"Because the poems I wrote should not exist in this world, let alone come from the mouth of an uneducated playboy." Su Shi smiled bitterly: "Only then did I understand what Du Ziqi said. It was me My strange words and deeds attracted Pei Xuan's attention, so he asked Du Ziqi to investigate me."
Su Shi then told Qin Nan everything in detail from the sixth day of March to last night, including Pei Xun's prediction about the emperor Zhou Yi.
Su Shi talked for more than half an hour. After listening, Qin Nan found that his palms had begun to sweat.
She really didn't expect that Su Shi would experience so many things in these two months, let alone that these experiences would be so bizarre.
"So, even without Pei Xuan's harm, Your Majesty would not have survived July 17th this year?"
When Qin Nan said this softly, her expression became indescribably weird, because she never thought that one day she would say such a rebellious thing.
"At least the people in the Tongxinhui think so."
Qin Nan still didn't understand: "Now that we know that Pei Xun has evil intentions, why would your Majesty still believe his words?"
"I guess it's because of the prince."
"Prince?"
"Your Majesty Pei Xun's prediction should have been confirmed by the prince." Su Shi seemed to smile: "Now I understand why your Majesty is not interested in government affairs. No matter who it is, knowing that he only has ten years left to live, he will My mind will definitely change.”
"Now I understand why the prince didn't give the letter to His Majesty or Princess Pingle."
"Why?"
"When a person knows his fate but is unable to change it, no one can bear the pain, so it is better not to let them know."
But at this time, Qin Nan turned a deaf ear to his words, as if he was deep in thought.
Su Shi did not disturb her, because maybe Qin Nan discovered a problem that he had never thought of from his story.
After a long time, Qin Nan suddenly looked at him blankly.
"Have you ever thought about a question?"
"what is the problem?"
"Why doesn't Your Majesty establish a crown prince?"
